18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 92

Stella motioned for Katie to go back and secure the door, and then turned to Korey and said, "Let's go."

As they approached the stairway door, Stella reached to open it, but Jasper suddenly pulled her back, taking the lead and descending the stairs first. Suddenly demoted to a secondary role, Stella gave a resigned sigh.

Well, the SWAT officer was indeed experienced in combat, and leading the charge to distract the enemy was a smart move. However, the situation was now chaotic. No one wanted to take the lead, especially when the enemies had real weapons. The extent of their arsenal was yet unknown.

Faced with a life-or-death situation, Stella decided to take a backseat.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

They had only made it a few steps down when a deafening noise exploded around them. The attackers didn't intent to fairly fight, and they had an ample supply of ammunition. They opened fire without hesitation, aiming to wipe out everyone on the 18th floor. Jasper positioned himself carefully. Due to the angle and perspective difference when shooting from the 16th floor upwards, the bullets either hit the railings or came into the wall, but none hit Jasper's foot.

That was right. He only exposed his foot.

As the gunfire erupted, Katie screamed, "Watch out!"

"Bang!"

A gunshot echoed from the 17th floor.

Jasper was indeed an expert. The recoil of her shotgun was considerable, causing Stella's arm to go numb, but she managed to land a shot.

As they descended, she discreetly unsheathed her samurai sword. The reflection in the polished blade revealed Korey suddenly rising to stab her in the back. She didn't look back. Instead, she used her right hand to shoot around her left underarm. She didn't hit his heart, but she did hit his belly.

Korey screamed in agony, clutching his belly as he stumbled backward. Katie, who had rushed over, smacked him over the head with her cane. Blood gushed out, and he staggered a few steps before collapsing on the ground.
