Doomsday Pillars

There will be 5 doomsday pillar drop in Indonesia, he need to make sure that all 5 will be properly managed. The location are Central Java, West Sumatra, South Sulawesi, West New Guinea and Bali. Alex will surely take charge the one in Bali while the other 4 currently he had no idea. He need to start in contact with some other leading figure before the apocalypse come. Alex fly to the Island of Sumatra, in the west there is a small city called Bukitinggi. There are many big cities in Sumatra island, 2 of them like city of Medan in the North Sumatra is the third largest populated city in Indonesia after Jakarta and Surabaya, there is also the city of Palembang it is the 7th populated city in Indonesia, it can be said that the island of Sumatra is the second most populated island after island Java. The place Alex visiting city of Bukittinggi only have a little more than 100.000 people. it is a small city, a little part of the west Sumatra, the westernmost city in all of Indonesia.

Alex arrived to the city, then took a drive to the hill for another one hour to a countryside. When he reached there, Alex a bit surprise, there is nothing rural about this countryside. The place are bustling of people not less populated than the main city of Bukittinggi. Its a simple village on the countryside with one main point of interest, there is a compound so large that it cover almost all of the village, its the military academy.

The military academy is a place where the Indonesian military soldier train, Alex can see many people in uniform walking around the village, some are in a group wearing a big backpack seems to want to go training in the mountain, there should be more than 10.000 soldier are being train in here. The place Alex going to visit actually are not this military academy, but a villa in another corner of the village, its the place where the village leader or the regent live.

With a glance ordinary people can see there is something special with this regent villa. the place are located on a small hill with a spectacular views of the mountains, there is a flower and fruit garden all around the compound, there are many gardener can be seen working. The main compound are surrounded by a high stone wall. the entry door are a big double solid wood door, and there are guards outside the gate, Alex can tell the guard are highly trained, they should be from the army special forces. Alex makes an introduction, gives a letter to a guard to be shown to the regent. A few minutes later Alex was welcome inside the compound and directed to a lounge. The lounge are as big as a basketball court, there are at least 8 guard standing outside the lounge. Alex waited there for an hour before 2 person walk in, one is a young man who seems to be an a.s.sistant, the other is an old man in his 70"s hes one of Indonesia top figure, the man in the future known as the West Regent.

Alex stand up and give his respect said "Greeting to General Suryo "

General Suryo is not a common man at all, The last 70 years since Indonesia was established, there has only ever been 4 general ever received the highest 5 star commander in chief t.i.tle. He is one of them and the last living one. He has been in the army all of his life, he was the top figure who was in charge for the nation safety during the national power struggle 20 years ago, which create ma.s.s riot. He also manage to eradicate the North Sumatra separatist movement who killed more than 15000 people. He is a National hero, 15 years ago to ensure national safety he was elected as vice president, although he has high chance to reelect as the president he chose to step down, retiring from all post and choose a small regent post near his hometown. But although he"s retiring he"s still one of the most influence figure in Indonesia, specially in the military. The military academy was established there as an excuse for many high rank general to visit him, although he thought of the military like his own family so he enjoy teaching now and then.

"I am just a retired general you can just call me regent Suryo now"

"Please sit down" the regent said

The regent continues "This is a very interesting letter, you must be an interesting person, whats your name?"

"My name is Alex,"

This is the letter that Alex trade with a spirit stone from James Randal, one of the most powerful family in Indonesia. During regent Suryo long career, the regent get acquainted with the Randall family. He and the Randals are very close. Although their relations.h.i.+p are close, they want to keep it as mutually beneficial, so they always exchange favors, and each favors are not to be trifled with, this letter Randal made mean as a huge favor, hence James hesitance to wrote it.

"So, Mr Alex what can i help you with?"

"Mr Regent, i always want to meet the hero of the nation and having pleasurable chat, but currently my visit is to bring bad news, i have strong information to believe that the country will be faced huge disaster and i hope we can work together to face it"

Protecting the county always be the Regent first priority, but the regent just smile

"I am already a retired old man, let just leave it to the young"

Alex response "I"m afraid the disaster will be face by all the nation, young or old, its a catastrophic disaster with an expected casualty 80% of the population"

The regent startled, his experience makes him a great judge of character, the man in front of him are serious and speak honestly, at least this man believe this to be the truth. Plus the letter from the Randall, he knew who James Randall is, not just his father or grandfather, James have resources and power, he wont be playing around with this.

"Tell me more about it" the Regent said

"please believe me that i cant tell you much, but i need you to help me prepared some thing, later you wont regret it"

Alex cant tell too much detail, as it might backfire to him and loose the regent support.

"I need a few military equipment and vehicles, i have the list ready here"

Also i need soldiers, i need you lend me a few platoon of your Death Squad soldier.

Regent Suryo took the paper and look at the list, the wrinkled in his face are more shown now.

"Just with this letter, you are asking a bit too much dont you think?"

"Sorry Regent, the letter actually to receive your friends.h.i.+p, as for this request,....."

Alex raise his finger and touch his ring, suddenly 50 pieces of gold bar that he took from the black snake island appear in front of him.

Now the regent surprised....
