DDay +6
Before leaving, the group gathered to pick weapons and tested their abilities. Alex, Aria, Rama, Sergei, Cindy, and Theo.
Aria, as usual, took her AWM Warfare Magnum 338, and Glock Pistol. Alex told her to also pick up a melee weapon, she needed to train on her close combat abilities, Aria took a set of short knives and put it on her hips.
Rama brought his own spear and shield, yesterday he came to the steel workshop and asked to be made a full metal spear, it's a one-handed spear, 1.6 meters length with a 40-centimeter blade. It's about 15 kilograms, too heavy for any normal fighters, but not for a high stage mortal realm user. With the longer blade, Rama can do both pierce and slash attack. Its heavy size can also be effective for smash attacks. Rama also made a full metal round shield buckler, its only 60 centimeters diameter and he held it on his back.
BANG! BANG!
"Wuhuuuu!! Did you see that both shot bullseye"
Cindy testing the 9mm pistols, since taking the 6 spirit stones, her perception is much improved, she took two 9 mm pistol and use the hip holsters.
"You should also choose a close-range weapon," Alex said
Cindy walked around the storage and finally found something that interests her... It's a bullwhip.. its made of leather and its 300 cm long.
"..."
"WHAHAAHHAHAH" Sergei laugh really hard
"I didn't know your that kind of girl... kinky"
"..."
Cindy annoyed, she swings around the whip make a loud crack. she swings around one more time and the whip suddenly tied around Sergei's feet, she pulled.
"..."
BRAKKK!! Sergei fall down
"Wow... I really like you girl... You're one feisty girl..!!"
Cindy smiles. Its been a while since she used it, her grandfather used to teach her when she was small. Alex wasn't sure if a whip will be practical, but he really doesn't want to argue with Cindy. The argument will be endless.

"What about you Sergei, what weapon do you use?"
Sergei never uses weapons before... he's a wrestler who's expert in sambo. Its a hand to hand combat using punches, kicks, elbows, knees, headbutts, throwing, gripping and holds. After some thought, he finally decided to wear steel knuckles. With his high stage mortal realm and his abnormal strength, this steel knuckles will be powerful in his hand.
Lastly Theo, he never likes violence, so he wasn't sure what to use. Alex makes it his personal goal to make sure Theo will be able to get used on weapons and able to defend himself. Theo gave a firearm a try, he didn't really like it, but he's not bad with it. Alex put a few assault rifle in his storage rings for Theo to use later. Alex also stores a machine gun, grenade launcher, and a flamethrower. As for close combat weapon, Theo really has no preference.
"What about a polearm? Theo said"
Before Alex have a chance to give a comment...
"Nah... you don't like it," Theo said
Theo continues "What about if I guess which weapon you think will be the best for me"
Alex was just thinking about the most effective weapon for Theo when he suddenly said.
"The pickaxe! really?"
"..."
Alex startle... "Bro, you did consume the spirit stones I gave you right? did you feel anything weird?"
Theo gives it some thought..."Now you mention it...I really did feel weird, I suddenly feel I can understand other people better, their thought and feeling... why? I thought its part of the stone power"
"JACKPOT!!" Alex was suddenly excited...
"If my assumption right you're one of the rare spirit enhancers, the psychic type"
The psychic, people with talent in mental power. The modern world called it Extrasensory perception or ESP, also called the sixth sense, an ability to claimed reception of information not through any physical senses, but sensed with the mind. Most people have it on a basic level, we called it intuition. Many mistakes it with high perception, but the most obvious proof are dreams. Scientist can't find the connection between perception and dreams. Dreams are one of the mysteries of the mind. Most people can sometimes experience the basic level, but to be able to breakthrough is very rare. It seems Theo is one of those lucky few. Zhao Fan the head of the Zhao China big four can be considered as the high-level psychic spirit enhancer.

Alex hopes Theo really is a psychic type spirit enhancers, he wonders what specialty he has, telekinetic, telepathy, clairvoyance or an even stronger one like Zhao Fan.
The group finally sets. Alex prepared 2 jeeps and their first destination is the biggest city in the west section, it's the Nagara city.
The city and its surrounding village should have at least 300.000 zombies. Jerry has only been backed by around 2000 survivors. Therefore the situation still has not settled. The main problem is still the mutated zombies. Alex group came and help Jerry's unit. 7 high stage human realm. Alex leading with his two katanas, Jerry and his daggers moves in with high speed, Rama's ever-flowing spear thrust and swing, Sergei explosive punches, Aria sharpshooting to cover, Theo using an assault rifle and Cindy having fun with her handguns and whip. These 7 people cut through zombies waves with the main purpose to annihilate all red zombies. If the mutated one is gone, the army could easily take over the city. Within 2 days, The city finally cleared. All survivor either send to the main base or moved to the West section survival post in the Gilimanuk city.
Alex left the defense of west section to Lieutenant Rangga, He has three tasks. first to monitor the communication signal and protect the antenna. Second to create patrol groups to secure all the small village all around the west section. Third, the lieutenant also tasked to send a scout to swim across and checking the situation in Bayuwangi city. The Easternmost city of Java island. Only 4 kilometers apart from Gilimanuk separated by the sea. Alex also left 30 spirit stones to the lieutenant to be rewarded to the most talented fighters and also for himself.
The group of seven swipe across the north section hunting for more mutated zombies until reaches the biggest city on the east section, Amalapura city. This city is a bit bigger than the Gilimanuk. Lieutenant Russel is currently in charge. It takes the group another two days to clear up all the mutated zombies. With all the survivor already left the city, the city of Amalapura was abandoned. Lieutenant Russel will guard the eastern section from the Bay city. He also prepared to train some survivors to become sailors. Alex also left a dozen spirit stone to give him and his best fighter.
The group spend two days driving around the central section, one small village to another killing red zombies and make sure each village know about the main base and its imperative before three months all people need to go move to the main base. Alex finally has the time to drop by to a very important village it's the village where Ericks and the little Vina lived.
Alex hoping to see some familiar faces, he spends many months at this place in his previous life. Erick's family was his lifesaver, and especially for little Vina, she stays with Alex for a few years, he thought of her as his own daughter. When the two jeep reaches near the village, Alex suddenly startles, A big smoke can be seen in the sky on top of the village...

Triquetra: A Multi-Class Isekai or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Accept the End of the Multiverse
Triquetra: An Multi-Class Isekei Adventure I know, I know, you have heard it all before. Yes I was hit by a truck. Yes I ended up in a Fantastical World suspiciously similar to one of my favorite RPG’s. Yes I had access to cheats no one else possessed. Yes it was a world of classes and levels and magic powers. Finally, yes I was an overweight middle-aged loser failing to live up to my potential. Given my eclectic reading habits I should have been better prepared. Unfortunately I was not. Sure I could multi-class with reduced penalties, but my starting class was Scholar! No combat abilities and very limited spellcasting. My HUD interface costs mana to use, and my universal translation seemed to be outsourced to Giggle Translate. I’m supposed to be an OP MC! Not a slice-o- life struggling to survive in the wilderness. Not to mention the Arch-Magus who summoned me, mistimed everything, I arrived 300 years too late, after the fall of the Empire I was supposed to save. The surviving remnants have devolved into Murder Hobos. What’s worse is that the Great Devourer, Ancient Calamity, and Spawn from the Void Beyond Time, Space, and Sanity is now aware of a new world to plunder, a world called Dirt! (Told you this translator sucks) Warning Extra Crunchy Authorial Vebosity! Lots of infodump in the early chapters, but I learn my lesson and it does get better, eventually. I do not own the Cover image, found it on a free image site.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.

The watcher of universe and stuff.
The most devastating thing to an eternal being must be boredom. If nothing can change you, how can you yourself change? Sometimes you have to learn that the hard way. I should point out that there are multiple lead characters and they will all have their own personalities and motivations. While the story will focus more on our MC Trey, you can expect multiple POV switches. If you do not like POV switches, this might not be for you. My first book. If anyone will ever read this, be so kind as to leave a comment. Even, if all you say is an insult. As long as I can improve this work by your comment, it's all fine. One thing’s for sure. I will keep writing as if my reader can handle curse words without curling into a little ball and repeatedly saying: "Leave my safe-space alone, you monster". Therefore, you can expect some profanity.

That Scottish Play
This is a very silly and cringey parody of Shakespeare's Macbeth. The play format will be kept consistent throughout. Unless you enjoy cringing so hard you experience physical pain, I'd suggest avoiding this work. However, as the level of cringe is only slightly less than that of the office, any fans of that show may enjoy this work. (I believe, as a parody, this work is protected from copyright by fair use, additionally, Shakespeare is in the public domain so it doesn't fall under copyright in the first place. If I'm wrong please let me know)
