18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 231

Luna was all over Cooper, tailing him around every day. Cooper was utterly annoyed by her constant presence. Stella chuckled heartily, "Oh boy, Cooper sure is a heartthrob."

If it was any other dog, it could have been tolerable. But Luna was a poodle, naturally energetic and vivacious. Stella suggested to Jasper, "What if we play matchmaker for Cooper and Luna?"

"Woof!" Cooper instantly turned his back, sulking on the floor.

As Cooper's trainer, Jasper was more sympathetic, "Seems like Luna isn't Cooper's cup of tea."

Stella could tell from Cooper's disgusted face, "Alright, don't be mad. I was just joking."

In this post-apocalyptic world, finding a companion wasn't easy. If Cooper didn't like Luna, so be it.

Jasper suddenly remarked, "Cooper might think he's a human."

Rosie comforted Cooper, "Cooper, you're one of us."

"Woof!"

The massive earthquake caused significant geographical changes, making it extremely difficult to find water sources.

The well-digger's face was sunburnt, "Let's give it a try. The earthquake has changed the course of underground water. I can't guarantee there'll be a water source."

The team selected some sturdy looking refugees to dig a well, offering them an extra serving of food and half a bowl of water each day.

If it were before the disaster, no one would spare a second glance at this amount of food. But in this post-apocalyptic world, countless people were fighting for this job. They would have fought for it physically if it weren't for the armed soldiers around. Finally, the sergeant selected the workers personally.
