18 Floors Above the Apocalypse
Chapter 390
Chapter 390
Jasper double-checked, and sure enough, there were no hidden cameras on the submarine.
Just to be on the safe side, Stella decided to head into Arcadia.
Despite Mr. Cristian's warm and genuine demeanor, Stella and Jasper hadn't let their guard down over the past few days. They hadn't noticed any suspicious behavior from him either.
Even when the submarine, code-named 2688, slipped into the sea, they didn't spot anyone tailing them.
"Why do you think Mr. Daniel was talking in riddles?" Stella pondered.
His smile was disarming, and if it weren't for his authoritative presence and the fact that he was older, Stella might have suspected he had less-than-honorable intentions, like an old fox chasing young chickens.
She admitted her thoughts might be narrow-minded, but it all felt so bizarre.
Maybe harboring secrets made everyone seem like a wolf in sheep's clothing.
It was strange indeed, but Jasper couldn't figure it out either. "Let's just stay on high alert," he suggested.
Regardless, the submarine was now in their possession.
Next, they had to strategize how to handle the cataclysmic event they referred to as the "Great Collision." Without a plan, they would be flying blind when it hit.
Cars, yachts, cruise ships, planes, armored vehicles, submarines - Stella felt like she could summon a genie with all the modes of transport at their disposal. But facing a natural disaster of unprecedented scale, they needed a cunning plan. Losing meant certain death. Survival was no place for arrogance or pride; they needed to stay humble to avoid a fate like the one in the old tale of the horse race.
Stella mused, "With all the people in the Kindle Society, if land, sea, and air routes are compromised on the day of the Great Collision, what do we do?"
Jasper thought it through. "The ocean covers 70% of the Earth, and it'll bear the brunt of the impact. The biggest danger is tsunamis, and once a person falls into the sea, their chances of survival are pretty much zero..."
The sea would bring tsunamis, while the land would be hit with earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, with dangers lurking everywhere.
