D-day #477
The birds chirped on the tree branches and flew freely in the sky, as if welcoming the second day after the Abyss Hole in Bali had been completed. At the moment, all the representatives from the various countries had returned to their respective regions.
There were only the representatives from Israel and Egypt who remained here, waiting for the operation against the Heavenly Gate. However, the leader of Israel representatives, Jurgen was suddenly forced to return to their country, leaving Ardeth to help solve the situation with the Heavenly Gate group.
There were only 23 days left before thousands of Abyss Pits around the world opened and unleashed their terror. It seemed Alex couldn't leave behind in his own preparation for the first tribulation too.
After the death of the Chimera monster, Alex ordered his men to continue exterminating the remaining gargoyles inside the Abyss Hole for the last 2 days. Three thousands elite fighters were chosen to be dispatched and do the cleanup inside the Abyss Hole. It was estimated it would take two more weeks to completely clear the Abyss Hole of all its inhabitants, the critters, hellhounds, and gargoyles.
Using the clues and directions that Alex gave, the troops began their sweep across the Abyss, searching for the monsters' nest.. In the end, they found several breeding grounds for those three types of Abyss monsters, with the gargoyles nests located in the hole where the Chimera nest was.
With the destruction of all these nests combined with the cleanup operation, the greatest threat where the Abyss monsters would continue to multiply and overwhelm the Earth would not occur, at least not from this hole.
Alex's original plan was to destroy all those nests so as to completely eliminate the threat to Bali Island. However, Cahya asked him to give him some time to let him study the phenomenon of the breeding of the gargoyles. Along with him, there was also Jane, the spirit plant enhancer, who was very interested in the way these monsters reproduce like plants.
Seeing that there were still more than three weeks before the tribulation came, Alex agreed on their request. Therefore, the two of them were currently busy researching inside the Abyss, protected by dozens of elite fighters.
Moving his attention away from the matter, Alex felt it was the time to start mapping out the plan for world liberation from the Abyss Holes. After seeing all the information he had, Alex decided to start the operation from the islands around Bali first.
According to data collected from the Doomsday Pillars across the territory of Indonesia, there were 43 Abyss Holes spreading around the regions, with seven of them on Java Island and six of them on Sumatra Island.
Deciding on where they should go next, Alex immediately left his study room and went to the headquarters.
-
In the main meeting room inside the Bali headquarters, Alex's main fighters were already gathered. Along with them, one could also see Regent Suryo and President Rico. There were also Devita and Cahya, the latter had just returned from his research for this meeting.
Last but not least, there were the spirit enhancer fighters and the battalion commander from the troops who had gathered in Bali.
After Alex entered the room, the meeting immediately began. The meeting started by reporting the military strength they had.
Total Military Personnel : 360.000
Elite troops : 10.000
Division 1 : 80.000
Division 2 : 80.000
Division 3 : 80.000
Militia : 50.000
Cadets : 20.000
All members of elite troops were Sky realm fighters. They were a mix of experienced Knight fighters as well as Magus. On the other side, inside the Division 1 to 3 there were only around two to three percent of fighters, who had reached the Sky realm stage.
Indonesia had 5 main islands: Java, Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi and Papua. Among these, the islands of Java and Sumatra already had their own main headquarters; on Java Island was the New Java City, the headquarters of President Rico, while on Sumatra Island there was the Sumatra Marks, the headquarters of Regent Suryo.
For Borneo Island, since the Doomsday Pillar there was located in the north of the island and controlled by Malaysian state, the Indonesian population there was already in the process of being moved to the Doomsday Pillar located in Sumatra Island or Java Island.
Meanwhile, for Papua Island's population, all of them had left the island and evacuated to Bali Island. Therefore, the situation only left the pillars in Sulawesi, which were guarded by Captain Donny.
In this meeting, Alex decided to dispatch the entire divisions out of Bali Island. The Division 1, 2, and 3 with a total of 240.000 fighters would set off and clear Java Island from the 7 Abyss Holes together with the troops from New Java. Their goal was to swiftly clean Java Island from the threat of Abyss monsters, from critters to gargoyles.
Alex's bold plan raised a question of how they were supposed to kill the Chimera with only the division fighters. Because in order to have a chance to kill this monster, the problem lay on the quality of the fighters, not their quantity.
"It's simple, actually," answered Alex.
Sweeping his gaze over everyone in the room, Alex said, "We will create a special team to kill Chimeras."
Alex then explained the composition of the team. The team would consist of 100 elite fighters, who would focus on approaching the Abyss Holes one by one with the sole purpose of killing Cerberus and Chimera. This arrangement would make the division fighters focused on their tasks of killing all the Abyss spawns.
When he saw everyone had understood, Alex began to name the people who would be included in this special team.
"The team leader will be Jerry, with Karra as his vice leader. As for the members, I will choose Karra's 100 elite fighters with Sergei, Makali, Russel, Dinda, Ark, Oscar, Oliver and Raufgar as the squads captains with nine other fighters below them."
Alex then continued, "There are 23 days left. So, you should be able to clear three to four Abyss Holes before the tribulation begins. However, even though the time is tight, please be careful, as I still wish all of you to return safely."
Alex really hoped that 3 months after the first tribulation ended, the three divisions would be able to clean all the Abbys Holes on Java Island. So, they could continue their operations to the other islands of Indonesia.
Obviously, Alex's goal to move the entire army was not only to clean the Java Island from the threat of Abyss creatures, but also to give these fighters more fighting experience against real enemies, because they truly lacked it.
Another goal was to acquire more spirit stones for their cultivation. With this cleansing expedition, they would have enough spirit stones to advance themselves to the Sky realm, greatly increasing their combat strength. They would also be able to equip themselves with stronger artifacts, that would serve to prepare them for the next threat.
After the matter of Abyss Holes was decided, President Rico once again asked Alex about the plan regarding the mission to save his son from the hands of Heavenly Gate. Due to that, Alex proceeded to explain he was busy creating tier 3 artifacts for the elite troops and asked for his patience.
When President Rico heard that, he suggested sending a team first to monitor the situation. Therefore, Alex assigned Theo, Rama, and Daisy to go with Ardeth, who would be the guide in the Middle East.
"I sincerely apologize, president. I assure you I will arrive there in ten days at the latest. Please be patient."
The president understood Alex, as the most important person here, got his hands full and there was an even more important matter for him to deal with. Hence, he knew there was actually no need for Alex himself to go there. However, the president felt grateful and calmer when Alex said he would go there and do it himself.
Unbeknownst to him, the reason Alex decided to interfere directly was to make sure their leader, Hafiz, died once and for all. Alex wouldn't rest easy until that man was dead and his organization collapsed.
"Alright, the meeting ends here. All troops should be prepared and do their tasks. I should be able to create a few hundreds tier 3 weapons before you leave. All the teams will leave in 2 days."
The teams had been formed, Aria and Arief's names were not mentioned on the plan. So, Aria was worried about Alex's arrangement for her.
When Aria was confused and worried about the lack of tasks from Alex, Regent Suryo approached her and said, "Aria, it's time for you to go home with me."
