18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 197

Going to the restroom, then entering Arcadia, Stella unfurled the note, revealing just two words: Danger ahead.

The handwriting was distorted, deliberately disguised. Strange, Teddy was actually warning them?

"Not so strange, actually." Jasper analyzed, "Teddy has been in contact with Bryce the most, and he knows him better than anyone else."

Bryce was not only a coward, but also had a knack for burning bridges. Who would willingly follow such a leader?

Teddy had long been dissatisfied with Bryce, but he lacked the power to confront him. He was even used as a scapegoat this morning.

Once such a thing happened, it was bound to happen again.

Stella pondered, "So you're suggesting that Teddy knew Bryce was planning to kill us, but today's events have pushed him to side with us?"

No, Teddy wanted to use Jasper to get rid of Bryce. And by then he could just sit back and reap the benefits.

Tsk, tsk, tsk, not so competent yet full of cunning plans.

However, Alpha Outpost had already been destroyed, and given Bryce's character, it was absolutely impossible for him to keep Jasper any longer, lest unexpected events occur.

Stella was a bit curious, "And how do you think he plans to do away with us, a simple spray of bullets?"

Jasper didn't think so. "Bryce values his image. If he kills us in front of everyone, what would his followers think? Who would dare to serve him in the future?"
