18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 219

Jasper spoke succinctly, expressing his doubts.

Mark pondered. Things did seem a bit off. "Okay calm down. There's a retired geologist in Building 2. I'll contact him right away. You guys start packing."

Cutting off the walkie-talkie, Jasper started packing swiftly, "Rosie, put on the first-aid backpack."

Rosie wanted to help, but he refused, "Stay in the room, and don't move."

They worked quickly, swiftly gathering furniture and other items, with Jasper tackling the air conditioner. Once they were almost done, the walkie-talkie unexpectedly rang, "Jasper, Stella, get your stuff and gather outside immediately, a major earthquake is likely to happen."

After the call, Mark immediately went to see Samuel, "Ride my bike to the neighborhood committee and alert them about the potential earthquake. They'll find a way to contact the city council."

Eastwood Eden had a well, and pets like dogs and mice, which helped them detect the premonition of an earthquake early. But others might not be aware.

Christian rushed out of the house, "Stay safe, and hurry up."

Mark immediately broadcasted, instructing residents to evacuate urgently, "Only take essential items, evacuate to the designated open area outside the neighborhood immediately."

Having packed beforehand, he grabbed his bag and Luna, hurriedly descending the stairs. He didn't forget to continue the announcement with his megaphone, "Hurry, save yourselves. Don't bring unnecessary items."

Emerging outside, he saw Jasper driving a Hummer, Mark was taken aback, "Jasper, the earthquake might arrive soon. Why are you driving?"

"We have elderly relatives who need help moving. We have to make a stop."

Mark had organized everything well, and there wasn't much to worry about in Eastwood Eden. The Hummer quickly left the neighborhood. Fortunately, the tires were heat and friction-resistant, otherwise, they would have melted.

Crossing state and national highways, the car headed for a secluded area. In less than 20 minutes, it entered an abandoned factory.

Jasper got out of the car, leading Rosie towards the vast wasteland behind the factory. Stella took the opportunity to park the car inside the Arcadia.
