《Doomsday 2020》16. Spirit Enhancer
Advertisement
To prevent more harm to Jerry, Alex immediately shot Mr. Blake in the head, for him everything else in this room was not as precious as Jerry. He then took Jerry inside of a small room; all the other guards, even Jacko was not sure what to do; they were waiting in the lounge.
Alex looked at Jerry's wound; the bullet passed through cleanly. Alex patched him up with a clean sheet, he was not critical but lost a lot of blood. He needed to get treated in a hospital soon, but the nearest was in Bali, a 3-hour boat ride away.
There was one way he planned to try.
Alex decided to open up his storage ring and took out his spirit stones. Alex planned to give Jerry some of his spirit stones. He believed that if Jerry turned to high stage Mortal realm, his upgraded regenerative ability should be enough to save his life. Alex was reluctant to give him six stones, but the safety of his Evolve was at stake. In his previous experience, Jerry was also not supposed to die here, he felt responsible. Hence he put all 6 of them in Jerry's mouth.
Jerry was still in a semi-conscious state, and he realized what Alex did to him. From patching his wound to giving him strange stones.
"This is a stone right?"
"What are you trying to do?"
"I should eat this?"
"Are you fu***** crazy?"
There's nothing Jerry could do to stop him. He was currently in pain and had no strength to resist: 1.2...6 stones, all inside him. Alex laid him on the floor.
"Just relax, this will save your life."
Jerry suddenly felt a weird sensation within his body, and he tried to relax and rest.

It will take a few hours until Jerry finished his transformation. Alex didn't want to waste any time; he walked out of the room and met Jacko. Jacko saw Alex's abilities just now, his speed, his aim, and his brutality. Jacko was scared of him. Currently, he just lost his employer, there were few choices for him, but he wanted to make sure about Jerry's condition first. Alex came to tell him that Jerry was fine; he is currently resting. Alex told him to spread the news of what happened and to gather all Black Snake members from all four posts to this island tomorrow.
After that, Alex took a walk around the compound by himself, many eyes were facing him, but they were not sure what to do so they let him be. Their reaction was entirely reasonable; they were not as trained as police or military organization. They had no chain of command, so when the Boss died, they were not sure what to do. Anyway, Jacko's announcement already spread, they will know more tomorrow. They cleaned up the bodies and put them into one of the empty rooms for the moment until further order.
Alex then walked around and checked each of the rooms; he opened each one; some of the locked rooms were no trouble for him. He started his treasure hunting, the first he found in the arsenal, they didn't have too many of them here. Exclude the one already with some of the soldiers there were 30 pieces of the SS1 assault rifle and 20 pieces of Berretta pistols. There were only a few boxes of ammo. Barely enough for his base, but some were better than nothing at all. He did find something useful though; there was a box full of grenades, there are 8 of them inside. Alex took all the grenades, but he left the weapons in the room, his storage ring was quite limited.

Alex then found "The Room." It was a steel door with triple locks. Alex forced entry inside the room; it's shiny, he saw the Black Snake treasure. There were ten bags of cash and about 500 gold bars. He took some time to count them, the stock worth $10 million and the gold with the current market value should be worth $25 million. Money. Precisely what he currently needs. He took all of them in the ring, he felt like robbing a bank right now. Anyway, all of this will lose its value by next month, so to steal and spend them will be a favor to the money and gold. All the other rooms were mostly filled with contraband; alcohols and drugs. He was not sure about the value so he will leave it later to Jerry.
Alex returned to the room where Jerry was, currently Jerry's experiencing the same process he had in the ruins chamber. When he saw Jerry, Alex felt a little bit jealous, the guy in front of him was one of the lucky individuals who had the spirit enhancer talent. They were very rare. In his previous life, Jerry was a high wind spirit enhancer. His ability to run faster actually was not coming from his muscles like any other body enhancer, but it was because of his talent in air manipulation, he was unconsciously able to reduce air resistance and used pressurized air for propulsion. He was an Evolve, the term that was defined by the doomsday pillars as a person who could enhance both their body and their spirit. Alex might not be an Evolve, but he knew a way from his previous life to get an ability that could make him strong enough like an evolve.
Alex then took a rest while waiting for Jerry. In the morning Jerry opened his eyes, there's a lot of confusion in his face. Between the news of his sister, to the stones that changed his body. He tried not to think about his sister right now, as he knew that Mr. Blake already died, he will work to investigate the truth about this later on.
Currently, he wondered about the mysterious stones, a few hours ago he was dying, now he felt a surge of powerful energy on his body. Alex slowly explained to him about the realms of human bodies, but he didn't tell where or how he got the stones. He also told Jerry the secret of Spirit Enhancing, at the moment within the Mortal Realm there wasn't much different to any body-enhancer, but he should already be able to feel the wind energy around him. He should practice himself. There's not much Alex can help, as he was not a spirit enhancer himself.
Jerry owed Alex his lives, and he also felt a sense of admiration to this mysterious person he just met yesterday. Jerry was a simple person, Alex already told him what he wanted, as long as Alex didn't ask him to do something that crossed his line, he was willing to work for Alex.
"So what do you require me to do?"
"I want you to lead the Black Snake gang."
"What for?"
"A huge disaster is coming. I need a lot of people. I want you and them to be prepared."

This fiction incorporates LitRPG elements, but it's not set in a VR. It's set in a fantastical world based loosely on East Asia in the 16th and 17th Century, when the Ming Dynasty was on its last legs, with the addition of magic and monsters. I totally stole the stat tables from Exterminatus, the author of Everybody Loves Large Chests, so let me credit him for that. I'm new to writing so please don't hesitate to criticise, and reviews would be greatly appreciated.
