《Doomsday 2020》40. Reaction
Advertisement
Alex is currently waiting in a fancy restaurant, James Randall walks inside the room. With a gleeful face, he walks up to Alex without a walking stick.
"Thank you! Thank you, my friend, I feel really great!"
James Randal had taken both the spirit stone. He can now walk normally again.
SHHHHHH...
Alex suddenly throws him one of the table knives. James was startled. He manages to dodge the knife. Somehow he saw the knife flew a bit slow for him.
"From your dodging speed, it seems that you are still within the strength of middle-rank Mortal Realm. It seems that you are not yet completely cured, Mr. James."
"Mortal realm?" James was confused, but with his current condition it already made him very happy.
"Yes, it is your current stage of strength. Consuming more of the stones could push you even beyond the limits of the human body."
James Randall was really excited by this news. This guy is a billionaire who can buy anything but have to live the rest of his life using a wheelchair. This news really is a beautiful song to his ear.
Alex continues, "So, what do you think about the Doomsday message?"
"Honestly I do not believe it, but I have seen first hand the effect on this miraculous stone, so at the moment I am keeping an open mind about this. I am a very rich man, if the Doomsday does happen, then money will have no value to the world. Men like me will lose their value. Just like any other business investment, the smart thing to do is to manage risk. I will start investing some of my money into the new currency; food, medicine, weapons, and protection."
"You are very wise Mr. Randall."
"When the Doomsday starts, I really hope that we can help each other. There is actually one thing that we can start preparing now."
Alex was discussing with James Randall about creating a way to communicate after the disaster. When the Doomsday starts, all communication signals will be down. The only way to communicate will be using a long-range two-way radio. The plan is to prepare a relay station in every 40 - 50 kilometer between Bali and Surabaya, that is about 10 relay stations. Afterward, they decided on the frequency and time.

“One very important point is about the base, Let me show you a very important location. The location is in central java, it is going to be the sanctuary for all people who live in this java island.”
After giving some information to the Randalls, Alex has 2 days before the Singapore gathering. He decided to use the little time he had to visit and try to warn some of his close friends.
The video message becomes the trending news in almost all channel, many believe that the Harvard professor have become crazy due to stress. The other possibility was that the professor was threatened. The professor is currently missing, none of his relative is able to contact him.

In one majestic building, there is a big meeting room with 4 sides creating a square shape facing each other. Within each corner, there are one or two people sitting in the front row. There are few other people sitting on the back. In front of each of the tables, there is a gold Chinese symbol; Yang, Liu, Zhao, and Chen. These are the big 4 families of China. The families are so old that they are able to influence much of China's management of finance, politics, economy, and law.
The Yang families are the descendants of the first president of China they are mainly lawmakers and politicians. The Liu families have the biggest influence within the army. The Zhao families were dominated by the females family member, they owned the China's biggest bank. While the Chen families own the largest businesses.
"The last agenda for this gathering is about the video that went viral yesterday."
The facilitator turns on the big TV and plays the video.
"Why did we bring up such cheap information within this meeting?"
"We have investigated that this was produced by the Randall family from Indonesia."
"The Randalls? That kid inherited the family business at such a young age. Maybe he got crazy because of his illness."

"That's the thing, we have investigated that his sickness have been cured and it is because of the same stone. We don't buy the Doomsday nonsense. But there is a chance that the Randalls with their profound medical research center has found a secret formula to a miraculous medicine."
Hearing about the miraculous medicine, the other families ears become focused full of interest.
"The Randalls have sent us a message and invited all of us to meet in Singapore on the 23rd. I vote to continue this investigation and send a representative to go there."
"Agreed."
“I concur.”
“I also agree.”

Beneath the Dragoneye Moons
Elaine is ripped from this world to Pallos, a land of unlimited possibilities made real by a grand System governing classes, skills, and magic. An ideal society? What is this, a fantasy novel? Adventures? Right this way! A Grand quest? Nah. Friends and loot? Heck yes! Humans are the top dog? Nope, dinosaur food. Healing and fighting? Well, everything is trying to eat her. Join Elaine as she travels around Pallos, discovering all the wonders and mysteries of the world, trying to find a place where she belongs, hunting those elusive mangos, all while the ominous Dragoneye Moons watch her every move. Hey! Beneath the Dragoneye Moons is my first writing effort, so please be kind, but don’t hesitate to point out the flaws. The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but it gets there! I’m going to be posting M-W-F I do know how the story ends, and I promise if it ever gets dropped, or I stop doing this, I will post the ending. There will be no random “this is the last chapter” out of the blue. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

8 188The Pokemon Ranger
Summoned from his unjust suffering in the mundane world, Spike finds himself before Arceus, who opts to send him to the world of Pokemon with the request to assist in maintaining the world's harmony. Afterwards, Arceus sends him off with the egg of a Riolu who will be his partner along the journey. Next thing he knows, he wakes up with a headache in the body of a five-year-old boy in the middle of a forest in Hoenn. Thus begins the journey of a Pokemon Ranger who will come to be feared by those hiding in the dark of the Pokemon world.____________________________________________________________Author Note:Please keep in mind that this is an AU (Alternate Universe). I will be taking aspects of the Pokemon world that I find to be the most fun and enjoyable and editing some things as I see fit. The world will contain some elements and characters from the anime, manga, and games, but it will also have some original characters and a mostly original storyline. It will not go fully grimdark like some gritty parts of the manga or some more realistic fanfictions, but also won’t be all sunshine and roses like the games. Overall, I do want to keep the story on the lighthearted side, but there will be some more serious plots as well. About 90% taking the story seriously and 10% wish fulfillment, I suppose. Note: I am also posting this fanfiction on Webnovel. No difference on release times for chapters.Also, as an update because of the people who messaged me about the multiple transmigrators, the existence of other transmigrators won't have much, if any, affect on the main plotline (or the harem if that's what those people are worried about). There will only be a handful of interactions with a few of the transmigrators during some of the more dangerous scenarios I have planned. I don't expect this to change anybody's mind, but thought it was worth mentioning. Also, I edited the first chapter to make this more obvious.Disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon or speak for GameFreak, Nintendo, or Pokemon. I'm just a fan having some fun in his free time.
8 225The Big Yoink: A Smol Detective Story
This is another fanfic set in the universe of They Are Smol, a delightful series of stories which you should totally go read right now if you haven’t. It’s a sequel to my own The Smol Detective. In this story, Oscar Williams and his adopted alien family have to determine the guilt or innocence of another human and her two alien friends. The trio stands accused of stealing a sacred relic, and if it isn’t found soon an ancient religious cold war could turn very hot indeed… Formal Disclaimer Type Thing: I do not take credit for the original setting, this story is set in an alternate version of the 'They are Smol' universe, written by the one, the only u/tinyprancinghorse. TPH takes many forms and is known by many names. He is like Nyarlathotep, only smaller and cuter and more prancey. TPH also has a Website should you require more Smol Shenanigans in your life. Which you do, so get over there and read it. The cover art for this sequel again comes courtesy of the mighty Akella, and they deserve lots of headpats from giant aliens because they are awesome.
