18 Floors Above the Apocalypse novel Chapter 300

The baseball bat struck with a vicious fury, shattering the police car window into a spiderweb of cracked glass.

"Bang!"

Several gunshots echoed through the air, but they didn't deter the rioters from climbing onto the police car, wreaking havoc wherever they could reach.

Violence was in full swing; they were trying to topple the police car over.

With a deafening crash, the police car was flipped upside down. Several police officers were dragged out, their bodies slick with blood.

Jasper slammed on the brakes, "Evan's in there."

Stella was shocked; without the deterrence of the military, the rioters had no fear of the police.

She was torn. If they left now, they would be safe, but it meant these police officers would die. Without Evan, would the new leadership of the police station be as dedicated?

Without Evan, the whistleblower's report would not have been taken seriously, and The Chaos would not have been eradicated. Who knew how many people would have died then?

Moreover, he had returned all the seized food to the people, without any reservation.

"Damn it, is there no law anymore?" Bran cursed, pulling out a weapon from his coat.

Just as he was about to act, he noticed that Stella and Jasper were sitting still. He hesitated, "Should we just pretend we didn't see?"

With just three of them, rushing out would be like a lamb entering a lion's den. They wouldn't be able to save Evan, and would only risk their own lives.

Realizing his rashness, Bran was about to put his gun back when he saw Jasper lower the car window and aim his gun at the rioters. Holy crap, his aim was spot on. He shot three rioters in the head in quick succession.

The sound of gunfire woke up the rioters. They saw a car in the distance and swarmed towards it like zombies. In the blink of an eye, Stella ignited a Molotov cocktail from the passenger seat and threw it at the charging rioters.

The Molotov cocktail exploded, sending sparks flying and setting some of the rioters on fire. Their screams echoed in the night.

The rioters who were not splashed with gasoline quickly retreated.

Bran got out of the car, holding his weapon high, shouting, "Come on, if you don't fear death, come at us!"

The rioters saw not only guns but also grenades. They quickly retreated.

The trio quickly rushed to the overturned police car to help. The police were lucky; they were far enough from the explosion that they weren't splashed with gasoline. However, their injuries were severe, and they were unconscious.

Without a second thought, they quickly loaded the injured officers into their car and sped off towards their safe zone.

Jasper was driving, and Stella was keeping a close eye on the road ahead. As they were about to turn into their safe zone, she warned, "Careful, there's a roadblock ahead."

It was a spike strip. The thugs probably thought the car would come back, so they stayed there with a spike strip. Fortunately, the road was wide enough, and there was only one spike strip, so Jasper drifts around the corner and flew over it. Bran almost dropped his chin in surprise. That was so cool.

After a thrilling but safe return to the residential area, they drove the car to the security building. Stella called the patrolling security guard and said hurriedly, "Quick, lend us a hand."

They lifted the wounded onto the bed, Stella ordered them to warm up the room and boil hot water, then she turned to Bran, "Have any medicine?"

"Yes."

When they evacuated the houses, they found some scattered medicines, but it was far from enough. Bran took out his walkie-talkie and quickly asked Butler to come over.

Including Evan, all the police were severely injured, but thankfully they were wearing bulletproof vests so there were no life-threatening injuries, but their hands and feet were cut.

Stella wasn't sure if the thug's knives were rusty, so she spoke again, "Any tetanus vaccines?"
