The Army Base

This will be the most important, there are 18 regional military command centers all around Indonesia. The one in Bali is the 9th Division. This division control 4 districts as Its jurisdiction. District Bali city and also all the islands on the east; The West Nusa Tenggara District and East Nusa Tenggara District and East Timor District.

Today all the head of 4 districts has gathered. The division is led by a Major General Agus and each district are lead by a colonel. The whole division control six infantry battalion, one cavalry battalion, and one combat engineer battalion. There is also the special forces Red Barret company being placed here. All in total there are 8500 soldiers.

In today's meeting, the person Alex really like to meet the most is Captain Farel. An army intelligence officer. In Alex previous life, he is one of the Bali survival leaders. Born in the soldier family but graduate from Oxford University. A very smart person. unfortunately the smarter the person the more skeptic they are. The regent introduction and Aria present are not enough to make them moved. Alex needs to explain the doomsday in a hypothetical situation. Luckily he is still a rational person.

Alex requests the army to recall all nonactive personal back to their allocated bases. He even requests all the reserve soldier and trainee to all gather. They, manage to add 10.000 more soldiers. Combine there are over 18.000 military personnel. This personnel is separated into 4 districts. The Bali district itself have totaled a little over 8000 soldiers.

Alex gave them the information about his base, discuss strategy and ask them to prepare a two-way radio for a way to communicate.

The Governor Office

Governor Agung. This is the leader chosen by the Bali people. When the doomsday start, the death of the president will be the end of the central government of Indonesia. Alex doesn't know the fate of this governer either, in previous life, Alex never met him. He' either died from the disease or died very early. Today's meeting becomes important because the governor is currently facilitating a meet with the local authorities and religious leaders. There were almost 100 invitations, but only 25 of them came. This result is within Alex expectation, as its currently, the holiday season. Mayor Rendy of the bay city is the best example. Nevertheless, Alex still wishes to see them. Alex brief them the same information all over again. Alex suddenly felt as if he's on a Writer Book Tour. 'Doomsday pillar novel promotion and signing'...

The Pencak Silat Society

This is a martial art dojo. The biggest and most famous in Bali. During many Bali incident that threatening the locals, for example, the Bali bombing 2002 and 2005 or the prison break 2017. The Pencak Silat Society become the most reliable activist onsite. Their total member are more than 5000 practitioners. Some of the best survivors in Alex previous life are part of this society.

Generalizations in pencak silat technique are very difficult; styles and movements are as diverse as the Indonesian archipelago itself. The principles behind the development and practice of pencak silat are self-defense and self-control. The techniques are not limited to hand to hand combat. The practitioners also trained in the used of sharp edges weapons like dagger, saber, also spear and shield.

Today Alex group are being welcome in the hall by the masters. Some of the guru currently position as the Indonesian Army trainer, therefore Alex visit was currently well received. It was considered an honor to be received by the Mahaguru.

Alex saw a few faces he recognizes within this hall, it's quite nostalgic, he fought together with a few of them, they were comrades.

Alex stands in the middle of the hall facing the Mahaguru surrounded by many masters who currently sitting on the floor.

"Mahaguru Indra, my name is Alex, I came with important information, but before that, I wish to have a friendly match with one of the masters. hope you can grant my wish"

A guru sitting on the sides said "A brave man, but do you have the capability? which one of us would you like to spar with?"

Alex stares at one of the youngest looking masters in the hall sitting next to the maha guru and pointed at him...

"I hear so much about master Rama talent, will you give me this honor?"

This master name Rama startle that he is the one chose.

Another guru jumps in to comment "Hahahha. Mr. Alex, Rama may look young but he is not weak, in fact, I think he is the one with the most potential in here."

Alex knows this guy name Rama. In his previous life, Rama is a Saint fire element spirit enhancer. One of the strongest survivor in Bali. He is a very talented martial artist, received his violet belt when he was 16, red belt when he was 20. Then study other martial art skill around the world. Winning an Olympic medal in silat. Return to mastering the white dove techniques style of the pencak silat and received his white sash at the age of 24. last year on age 25 he received the honorable title of 'Pendekar'. Rama, a brave and fierce spirit enhancer. Alex wants him to be part of his team.

"So will I be granted this honor?" Alex clasped his hand and bowed to the maha guru.

"Do you accept Rama?" the maha guru asked him.

"Yes Mahaguru I accept"

Rama can feel this Alex is not a normal guy, as a talented spirit enhancer his perception is beyond normal.

full speed advance. BAAAMMM!! .. Rama barely manages to block Alex punch. he got pushed back a few steps. All the masters in the hall startled.

.

Within Alex group, its the first time Theo saw his skill, he was amazed. Cindy is excited like always while Aria always keeps her cool.

.

Usain Bolt the gold Olympic medalist break the 100-meter world record with his 9.69-second sprint. Alex with his high stage mortal realm can run less than 8 seconds. He can advance a 10-meter distance less than 1 second.

.

Alex surprise too. Rama manages to block his high-speed attack. he really is a great talent. Alex assumes this Rama has passed the limit of the medium rank mortal realm. impressive such a talent at a young age.

.

the fight goes on for another 10 moves. Pencak silat movement steps techniques, the 8 direction steps can only be considered as basic techniques but this Rama manages to master and utilize it effectively.

.

.

After 10 more moves, Alex felt Rama moves are getting stronger and faster.

.

Another surprises, Rama white dove techniques already surpasses the mortal realm. As a spirit enhancer, Rama is very talented in using inner energy. The pencak silat called it chakra. using inner energy to create powerful explosives strikes.

.

Alex exchanges a few more moves, but in the end, Rama still lost. All the masters seeing this were surprised. They are all martial artist. they can tell the move Alex shows are beyond the limits of the human body.

Alex then told them about the secret of his strength, about the coming doomsday, and his bases. On the 31st the Bali city will be in chaos. Alex requested the help and cooperation of the Pencak Silat society. They are of course willing to help, it's their city. Alex left another two-way radio for them. Unfortunately, with the current condition, there is no reason for Rama to follow him. Therefore Alex leaves empty-handed.

Three days have passed... today is already the 30th of December. On the way to the base, Alex felt something different from the street of Bali. It doesn't have its usual charm. Less music on the street, less party, and fewer crowds. The human minds are really unique, they reject to believe in the doomsday message. But when it becomes near, it disturbs their mind. This could be a good sign Alex thought.

Alex returns to the base after 3 days. The base population exploded 5 times, there are now more people staying on the base than before the announcement. The team are busily separating the newcomer, There is nothing much Alex can do at the moment than allocate them all in some of the warehouses. These sudden increases of people is a good sign that his message is currently accepted by the locals. But it also could bring a problem.

Not the time to worried about it, this is the last day, Alex spent it with some quality time with his family. The tension makes it hard, but as usual, Hendrik always could light up the mood.

Another day has passed, Today is the day, even with all the planning and preparation, deep down Alex is afraid. No one can ever be prepared for this.
