The Black Snake base island, at noon, the courtyard area already full of people. All 3 gang leader and their members, the main base guard, plus Jerry.'s member. all totaled 300 plus member has gathered. Alex and Jerry both are standing in the front.Jerry currently addressing the members, most of them respect him, so they listen to him.Jerry told him what Mr Blake did to his sister, and about the incident last night. Afterward he inform that for the gang to continue, first thing they need to elect a new leader, he open for anyone wishes to become the new leader.

Jacko already know Jerry strength, so he choose to stand aside, the other two leader, Bayu is a muscular bald man, height about 1.9 meter, while the last leader is Vicky a woman in her late twenties.Vicky has no comment, she never like Mr Blake, as for Bayu, he think that he might not be as smart as Jerry, but he's sure, that he is the strongest and fiercest member in this courtyard.

He challenged Jerry to a duel, other member thought that Jerry is still hurt because of the gunshot, but who knows that he would win easily against Bayu. The first minute Jerry only moving around testing his speed, next to test his strength he let the big guy hit him, it doesn't really hurt him, Jerry felt both his speed and strength increases.. its addicting. Seeing the scene every gang member surprise, but the stronger the leader, the better they will be, so they feel glad. Jacko really puzzled by this, last night when he fought Jerry, Jerry was not this strong, after got shot he doesn't seem to be hurt, but actually get much stronger.

When the leadership is settled, Jerry start talking about the future plan for Blake Snake gang, he planned to stop the drug smuggling business and decided the gang to become mercenaries, as for the client he introduced Alex the guy standing next to him. As most of Black Snake member have a criminal record, it will be hard for them to live outside of the gang, so most of them agree with the decision, about 30 of them decided to quit and retired the life of the gang, and Jerry allowed it.

For the rest of them, total 300 people, Alex planned them to be trained and prepare for the end of days, they will become his first group of fighters. Although he wont know how many will survive the plague, but he still wish the one survive will be ready. They will be trained in basic hand to hand combat, axes fighting and lastly shooting firearms. The firearm supplies are far from enough, so Alex gave Jerry a job to trade all the Drugs with weapons, they will need as much weapon and ammo as possible. Jerry give a rough estimate, all the drug supplies worth about $10 million, if traded with weapon it should be able to armed 2000 people. Alex added extra $5 million dollar to buy a few special weapon like RPG, machine guns and extra ammunition, a lot extras..

The 4 Black snake posts will be emptied, all gangs will have training in the island, Jacko and Bayu will be in charge of the training and Vicky will be in charge of tradings and smuggling it to this base, Jerry request to visit Colombia, beside trading, his main reason is to hear news about his sister, so he request to go there himself.Alex kind of worried, but considering that Jerry is already a high stage mortal realm, he let him go, but Alex gives Jerry a deadline, 1 week at most he must be back to the gang, and prepare the mobilization of the gang member to Bali main base.

Alex realize the gang also have a dozen ship available to be use, Alex told Jerry about Bay city and told him to coordinate with Eka about modifying the ships. After monitoring the preparation and training, there's nothing else Alex can do here in the island, Alex went back to the Bali Island.

The Bay city is currently crowded with 100 plus mechanics, modifying vehicles and ships, Alex have meeting with Rendy the mayor about donating a fund to built the city outer wall and post. Of course he also mention a different kind of "donation" as well.

Next Alex went to the main base, its currently busy and bustling with 5000 plus worker, from land clearing, building foundation, wall gates placement, and steel construction it all progressing real fast.Alex gives some feedback on the current design. The land acquisition already finish, so he start the second stage of the design, The wall in the north facing the mountain, the gate will be called the mountain gate, the wall on the west near the river there will be the river gate, on the east where the pillar will drop be called the pillar gate, Lastly on the south near the main road will be called the main gate.Outside of the Mountain gate until the river gate, Alex will create a farm area, Alex decided to bring 1000 farmers to start land clearing and paddy the fields. They will also connect the farms with the river Alex also prepare a dozen 3 story outpost 1 kilometer away each outside the base for lookout. After he finish the design, he return back to the Hotel where his family staying, both trips took him one full day.

Tonight Alex have a lot of thing in his mind, its already day 10, 20 days left till the end of days come, Things seems doing as planned, he got 2 bases under construction, 5000 plus worker, supplies delivered, vehicles, boats, he got an artifact, an Evolve, 300 fighters and weapons. But after seeing his bases and relate back to his previous life...

"It's not enough"

"5000 people, 300 fighters, how many of them would survive the first plague?"

"it might turn to be a safe base for my family and friends"

"but will it have any affect to the world? did i reincarnated only to protect my family and friends?, this preparation wont bring any much different to my country, don't bother about changes to the humankind, the earth has totaled 7.7 billion people and currently my action only affecting less than 7000 people. i only have 20 days left, what else can i prepare? i need to think bigger and took higher risk, i actually really want to start getting the item to find cure for my daughter, but i guess it can wait for now"

IfAlex want to create impact to the country, he would need the government involvement, but it will be very hard for the government to go on board with this, politician will take too long to convince, the other way is either go straight to Indonesian military or through the richest and most powerful society in the country;
