18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 26

Chapter 26

Without further ado, Lukas knocked on the door of their friendly neighbors in this post-apocalyptic world. Upon hearing their need for medicine, Jasper agreed after some consideration.

As usual, Angela stayed behind with the kid to guard their base.

Even though Cody proposed the idea of the world's end, Angela still had her concerns. She wasn't ready to believe it fully, and after some hesitation, she said, "On this trip, focus on finding survival supplies and medicine. Anything else...you can decide whether you need it

or not."

She didn't spell it out, but those who understood, got it.

Stella quickly caught on. "If we find medicine and survival supplies, we will split it evenly. Any personal needs aren't included, but let's not use too much of the group's resources."

Everyone agreed; it was better to be clear from the start.

With one speedboat and three rubber boats, they could bring back lots of supplies. Their only worry was that someone else might get to them first.

There were 20 kilometers to Cody's company, and the four of them braved the rain on their speedboat.

As they had guessed, the water flow became more complex the further they got from the city, and the wind started to blow. Even the best sailor would struggle to navigate through such conditions.

Jasper, however, was skilled enough to traverse the complex waterways. In the gloomy weather, they spotted a few skyscrapers standing above the water. Cody pointed out the direction, and they moved towards the skyscrapers. Through the glass on the fifth floor, they could see an office submerged in the flood.

"The office looks pretty tidy; it probably hasn't been looted yet."

They took a hammer and smashed the glass, letting the floodwater rush in. Once the water level stabilized, they entered the skyscraper and secured their speedboat.
