15 Headed Towards Freedom Town

Kate was just in time to let Bick hear her mutter, "As expected of a noble who cherishes his life!"

Then, she said in a normal voice, "Don't worry. As long as the nuclear and biochemical contamination stay below 60% , it's very safe."

Soon, the two of them changed the topic. Regarding the string of asterisks behind the mental strength, both of them treated it as a personal computer malfunction.

After dinner, Kate found a plant that she called "Oil Vine" among the strange plants outside.

The dark green color and the thickness of an adult's arm, together with the faint glow on the surface, always made Bick sound like a python.

For cold-blooded animals like snakes, Bick had a deep fear in his bones, so he immediately hid by the wall.

"Do you want to just watch? It seems like you hired me as a guide and bodyguard, and the job doesn't include a maid!" Seeing that Bick was far away, Kate couldn't help but urge him.

When Bick heard this, he also felt that it wasn't good to let Kate, a woman, do all the work. After all, he was a big man.

He muttered in a low voice, "It's just that they look alike, just that they look alike..."

Then, he walked over in small steps.

"Use your machete and split it open. We'll rely on it for warmth at night!" After Kate finished her instructions, she went out of the villa again.

When he heard that she was going to split open this oil vine that was very similar to a python, Bick subconsciously shivered.

However, Kate had already gone out. Bick, who wanted to object, could only accept his fate.

He picked up the machete, closed his eyes, turned his head, and started hacking randomly.

The feeling after cutting was very strange. It didn't feel like he was chopping a plant at all. Instead, it felt like he was chopping meat.

This made Bick open his eyes slightly and use the corner of his eyes to check.

In the end, when he saw the oil vine that wouldn't move even after he had cut it open, the fear in Bick's bones immediately turned into a strange excitement.

For a moment, he raised his machete and started hacking crazily.

"Oh, my God! I can't believe it. Do you want to chop the oil vine into stuffing and then use it to make pies?" He found another seven or eight fruits that looked like coconuts outside, however, they were two or three times larger than the fruit of an unknown plant. Kate was a little devastated as she looked at Bick who was hacking crazily at the oil vine.

Seeing that Bick was very curious about the fruit in his hand, Kate was speechless for a long time before she sighed and said, "It seems that the life of a noble is indeed good. Haven't you drank bath water before?"

"Uh... bath water is also drinkable?" Bick was even more speechless than Kate.

After Kate explained, Bick finally understood that this kind of fruit, which was very similar to a coconut, was called bath water.

It was one of the usual sources of water for the wasteland visitors. As for the taste.

Just by listening to its name, one would know.

However, using the liquid in it to wash the body was pretty good.

Kate put the oil vine into the fireplace, which had not been lit for decades. Soon, the temperature in the villa rose.

The sun was blazing in the desert during the day, and the temperature was about 40 degrees Celsius. It seemed that they wanted to roast people alive into Thanksgiving turkeys.

When the sun set, the temperature in the desert would drop rapidly, and soon it would break through zero degrees Celsius.

If not for his strong body, which did not require the help of zombies, Bick would have been tortured to death by the temperature of ice and fire.

With the fireplace and fuel, he finally did not need to rely on his shivering body to generate heat to resist the cold night.

Kate split open the hard shell of the bath water and heated the liquid inside with oil vines. The two of them took a hot bath happily.

For a moment, Bick was so happy that he almost cried.

Although the bed was a product of nearly a century ago, it was now rotten beyond recognition.

In any case, he finally didn't have to sleep on the sand in the wild anymore.

With the smell of mold, Bick quickly fell asleep.

The next morning, the first thing he did when he got up was to sign in. He saw that what he got was actually a container of toiletries.

Bick was so happy that he jumped three feet and immediately took out a set to use.

Shampoo, body wash, mouthwash, towel..

It was really complete. He even gave the men and women Cologne and perfume.

In the wasteland world, there was food, drink, and a place to stay. Now, he could even wash up.

Moreover, he had a beautiful woman by his side. In an instant, Bick had nothing else to ask for

He didn't even want to look for trouble with his own search team.

Back then, when he saw those guys find half a bucket of gasoline and some poor water, he was so excited.

Let those guys slowly struggle in this wasteland.

Therefore, when Kate proposed to go to the largest survivor base nearby, Free Town, on the third morning, Bick was very resistant.

Seeing the change in Bick's attitude, Kate, who had other plans in mind, immediately began to tempt him.

Of course, it wasn't the kind of temptation that used one's body, but something more valuable.

"Haven't you noticed that the numbers of nuclear and biochemical contamination shown on your personal computer have been slowly rising?"

Hearing this, Bick immediately checked his personal computer. Sure enough, there were changes in the values of these two items.

Although it was only a small change after the decimal point, they were indeed increasing.

When she saw the change in Bick's expression, Kate continued to add, "Don't you want to inject genetic medicine like me? You have so many good things in your hands. You can simply sell some of them to exchange for energy points that you can size up. When the time comes, you can naturally inject genetic medicine at will. You can even inject B or a types that are more advanced than the C type that I injected. When that time comes..."

Bick's expression became more and more excited as he listened to Kate's description.

"Alright, Alright. I don't care about the gene reagent. I know that you're the one who wants to go to freedom town, but I'm a gentleman. Let's set off now!"

Bick interrupted Kate's narration. With a wave of his hand, he rushed out to start the beach car.

"If I were you, I wouldn't drive this. It'll be fine if none of us carry some bread and lunch meat. The stealth and reaction speed of walking are much better than driving this big target." Kate stopped in front of the beach car and voiced her thoughts.

Although she was a little disgusted with the long journey, Bick was not someone who would not listen to her opinions.

No matter what, Kate was someone who had lived alone in the wasteland for three years. She believed that her experience would reduce a lot of trouble.

The two of them brought their weapons and equipment. No one carried a big bag of bread, canned food, and drinking water. They set off in the direction of Freedom Town.

The scenery on the road and the yellow sand in the desert were completely different worlds. The surrounding vegetation was lush, but they were all strangely shaped. Bick could not even name them.

The task of clearing the way was naturally left to Kate because only she could accurately name these plants and know their characteristics.

Which were poisonous and which were harmless. If Bick was the one clearing the way, he would probably soon fall under a plant and die without even knowing how he died.

Bick did not stay idle either. He continued to absorb the useful knowledge from the wasteland.

Although the road was very tough, it was calm and there was no danger.

Until a deafening howl was heard. "Ahhhh!"
