Thankfully, the glass was bulletproof, or Stella would've met her maker right then and there.
Collin and the others were scared out of their wits, but Jasper kept his cool and focused on driving. He was impressively calm under pressure.
The vehicle was heavily modified. Not only was the glass bulletproof, but the tires were puncture-proof as well.
Of course, if it wasn't for Collin and the others, Stella would've probably insisted on stopping and making sure those robbers were sent straight to hell. The criminal gang was everywhere, but the researchers and their medicine were more important. No need to stir up unnecessary trouble.
When they arrived in Swan Hill, this once bustling metropolis, all that remained were a handful of sturdy buildings amidst a sea of broken ruins and the blinding glare of sunlight reflecting off shards of glass. Its tragic history was even more harrowing than that of Griffith. Words and images could hardly do it justice.
Desolation, sorrow, and utter despair.
Buildings had crumbled, walls had fallen, but there were still survivors holding on. They either lived in makeshift shelters or dug holes beneath the rubble. Stella turned away, not wanting to see any more of this tragedy.

Collin thanked them again, making sure to tell Jasper which areas of Swan Hill were particularly dangerous and to be avoided at all costs.
Jasper simply nodded, turned the vehicle around and drove off.
Compared to Griffith, Swan Hill was relatively safer. It was not only home to the military headquarters but also had a larger number of troops maintaining order. Due to numerous roadblocks, it took them an hour to leave the city and find the road leading to Lincoln.
Stella didn't want Jasper to be tired out, so she took over driving.
