Chapter 519

Stella was on the same page. Compared to the endless ice of the Arctic, solid ground was much more livable for most people.

"I wonder what's going on out there now," she mused.

Jasper, lost in thought, replied, "Do you want to check it out?"

Of course, Stella wanted to, but she was worried it wasn't the right time.

Jasper squeezed her hand. "We can start prepping and wait for the perfect moment."

They couldn't make a hasty exit like they did from Ocean Point Naval Station. The world was round, and with a couple thousand people in the Arctic, who knew when they'd cross paths again?

With nothing to their names, they needed to get ready if they planned to leave. They didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly.

They weren't alone; many survivors were heading there, faces glowing with excitement.
