18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 102

After considerable effort, Stella finally managed to pry up the toilet and store it in her Arcadia.

The living room was so ostentatiously luxurious it was inhumane - paintings, antiques, geode ornaments, crystal stones, and gold masks.

As Stella collected these items, she noticed Jasper's gaze on her - it was complicated.

Well, she admitted that her actions were a bit unsightly, but these were desperate times. She wouldn't be throw into jail for this anywy.

Seeing him standing still, Stella felt a bit awkward, "Shall we split the loot?"

"No need," Jasper declined her offer, "There are a few safes in the bedroom. Could you take care of them?"

So he had his own needs. That was understandable.

Without further ado, Stella entered the palatial bedroom, where five massive safes were lined up side by side.

he graciously helped him collect them.

She didn't miss out on the other valuable items either, considering them as payment for her day's work.

As for the rest of the Unity Village assets, she left them to law enforcement.

Just as they were about to leave, the door in the corridor was suddenly smashed.

Damn, it must be the law enforcement guys raiding the boss' residence.

The opponents were professionals, and a head-on confrontation would be suicide. It was better to make a swift exit.

Jasper once again enjoyed a privilege others didn't have, but his sharp senses quickly detected something amiss. The vast living room in Arcadia was now empty except for the five safes they had collected and their discarded clothes.

All the items she had desperately thrown into the Arcadia were gone, especially that golden toilet.

Feeling slightly embarrassed, Stella pointed outside.

Jasper looked towards The Garden, his eyes revealing surprise - her Arcadia could expand.

Stella was equally shocked. The increase this time was significant, she estimated about 200 square feet, or 1200 cubic feet.

At the same time, she detected an additional room on the second floor.

However, according to her experience, she felt that the items she had collected shouldn't have been that valuable. Her Arcadia wouldn't be so generous.

It didn't matter anymore; it had already swallowed everything. Whether it gave more or less was not her call.
