Bab 6: A Thorny Rose
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The hesitation in Bick's actions didn't make Kate feel confused.
After all, such a delicious drink, even the big shots of the survivor base might not be able to get it in a year.
The fact that this guy in front of her could give her a drink was already very surprising to Kate.
Although, she had always been very confident in her looks and figure.
Before the start of the Apocalypse War, she had been a high school cheerleader during peacetime. She had directly signed a contract with her university to become a Victoria's Secret Model.
It was because of her looks that she had been brought into the sanctuary by the wealthy people who had been pursuing her during the start of the Apocalypse War, enjoying the best treatment of a frozen sanctuary.
Unfortunately, the energy in the sanctuary had been exhausted and had to be activated. The frozen people woke up one by one.
The outside world was not the promised land of social stability that they had imagined. Instead, it was an even crueler wasteland.
There were many slave-hunting squads on the wasteland that specialized in finding shelters that had not been opened. They took advantage of the fact that the refugees inside did not know the situation outside when the shelters had just been opened to attack these young white rabbits.
The rich suitor who had vowed to love her for ten thousand years actually cowardly joined the slave-hunting squads. He even wanted to send her and her sister to the bigwigs of the slave-hunting squads so that they could live a more glorious life in the slave-hunting squads.
Kate desperately escaped, but her sister was taken away by the slave catchers. Later, when Kate was wandering in the wasteland, she was rescued by a strange old nun.
It was under the guidance of the old nun that Kate became a lone traveler in the wasteland, stubbornly surviving in this wasteland world.
She followed the news of the slave catchers all the way to the desert near the Rocky Mountains, in order to find her sister who was taken away.
Who knew that she was not prepared enough for the hardships of the wasteland world and almost died here after running out of supplies.
Kate was very touched by Bick's gentle treatment. After all, anyone who was pulled back from the brink of death would have a similar mentality.
Originally, after being betrayed by a wealthy suitor, Kate felt that she would no longer have any expectations for men.
After all, her beautiful appearance and proud figure brought her a lot of convenience, but it also made it harder for her to obtain pure feelings.
However, the iced coke that Bick suddenly took out was too expensive.
Bick, who had transmigrated from an extremely rich world, had also experienced hunger and thirst in the wasteland world.
Unfortunately, he still lacked knowledge about the scarcity of resources in this world.
This was the wasteland world where the two camps had been in a Cold War for nearly two centuries. In the end, they destroyed each other with nuclear and biological warfare.
The prosperous cities in front of the station had been completely cleaned by biological and chemical weapons, and they were filled with all kinds of zombies.
The factories and farms that could provide industrial and agricultural products were all taken care of by nuclear bombs.
Think about World War I and World War II. Those strategic bombers that blotted out the sky were not there to bomb the soldiers. They were all throwing incendiary bombs at the industrial and agricultural areas.
When the Apocalypse War started, the two camps did not only have strategic bombers. Missiles carrying nuclear and biological weapons were flying everywhere.
After the war, the entire world was completely destroyed. The remaining survivors could not do anything to rebuild their homes. There was not a single piece of land in the entire world that was not contaminated.
Therefore, the ice-cold Cola that Bick thought was very ordinary wasn't something that everyone could enjoy in this world.
Even the ordinary drinking water that wasn't contaminated by nuclear weapons or biological weapons was something that only the higher-ups of the various survivor bases could enjoy.
As for drinks like the ice-cold Cola that were filled with caffeine and sugar, unless one was a higher-ups of the major factions that had hundreds of thousands of survivors, one would never have the chance to taste them.
It had to be said that Iced Cola was the best supplement for Kate, who was thirsty and hungry in the desert. She even had some signs of heat stroke.
The cold and refreshing carbonated drink was full of carbon dioxide, which could take away the heat very quickly and alleviate the signs of heat stroke very well.
In addition to the sugar and caffeine in the cola, the effect was even more obvious.
Especially for the people born and raised in the wasteland of the end of the world, even the most basic diet could not be guaranteed.
The resistance to caffeine was simply extremely low.
Just like the people of Europe who had their first taste of tea, the central nervous system immediately became addicted to the stimulation of caffeine.
And the role of sugar in times of material scarcity was simply unimaginably important for people who lived in a world rich in material resources.
After downing a large glass of iced coke and even chewing and swallowing the ice inside, Kate, who had just caught her breath, smiled charmingly at Bick.
Bick felt that there must be a hidden naked little angel in the void who had secretly shot an arrow at him and hit the bull's-eye.
His heart was about to melt. The desert under the scorching sun seemed to have instantly turned into a bright and beautiful garden of Eden in spring.
Hundreds of flowers bloomed and the spring breeze blew across his face. Bick, who was in his first love, felt that the air had turned pink and was filled with an ambiguous smell.
"Don't tell me that I, Bick, can combine theory with practice today? To be able to take off the shameful virginity hat on such a beautiful woman, it's definitely not a loss!" Bick, who was indulging in his fantasies, thought, he completely ignored the similarity between this beautiful woman and the world-class sexy model from another world.
It could only be said that when a man's sperm entered his brain, the only thing he could focus on was mating, and everything else had to be moved aside.
Unfortunately, Bick still did not understand the wasteland world well enough. There were no simple people who could survive in such a cruel world.
Moreover, a woman who could become a loner in such a world, or a beauty with a body and looks that defied nature, was definitely not a vase that relied on a man.
That's right, Kate was very moved and very grateful, but she would not easily hand her fate over to another man.
Looking at Bick, who was dazzled by her smile, Kate did not hesitate to grab his arm.
"No way? So enthusiastic! I'm still not ready!" Bick could not react at this time. His mind was filled with all kinds of footage from the San Fernando Valley.
"Poof!" Bick's entire view suddenly shifted 360 degrees, and he fell to the ground without understanding the situation.
Kate threw him over the shoulder cleanly, then used her knee to push against Bick's back, and used her other hand to grab the shawl and tie him up.
Although the sand dune had good shock absorption and did not cause much damage to Bick, the psychological blow was too great.
Who would have thought that a girl with such a hot figure, such a youthful face, and such charming eyes would turn out to be a thorny rose?
