18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 77

Jasper stepped out to take over training duty from Rosie and saw that the guys of room 1803 were still sweating profusely in their workout.

Living wasn't easy, especially for the people of the 18th floor, the thorn in everyone's side. They were working to increase their strength just to protect their resources; even the dog was increasing its combat skills, let alone the humans.

In that moment, Jasper was moved. "Do you want to learn how to use a crossbow?"

Lukas and Cody were shocked. Was Jasper talking to them?

Crossbow? He wanted to teach them how to use a crossbow, right? Wow, they were excited! Their hearts were about to jump out of their chests!

Cody responded quickly, "Yes, yes, yes!"

Every time they saw Jasper training Stella in stealth and reconnaissance, they were green with envy. Jasper, being a former SWAT officer, was a pro at both offense and defense. His guidance was worth more than the aimless training they had been doing for a month. They had seen it with Stella. When they were kids, Cody and Lukas could hold their own even when they teamed up against her. But now, she could take them both down with a single punch.

And then there was Cooper. His combat experience was already superb. Now he was receiving high-standard police dog training. It was beyond the realm of normal.

Yes, they might've been weak, but they had their dignity. How come they couldn't even beat a dog? They felt shame, absolute shame!

They had been itching to ask Jasper to take them under his wing but never had the courage to pop the question. The only reason was Jasper's intimidating aura. It was the kind that could silence you in a second.

Jasper was cold and aloof, and never wasted a word. It's like there's a banner on his forehead. "We are not close. Get away from me."

Just because Jasper gave special treatment to Stella didn't mean he would do the same to Cody and Lukas. So no matter how much they hoped, no one dared to ask him. They didn't even dare to bring it up to Stella. Now, he had offered.

Cody wanted to cry. Was this their chance to climb up the ladder?

Lukas wanted to cry as well. His wife often beat him. He wanted to learn some self-defense skills so he could stand up to her!
