DDay +6
Before leaving, the group gathered to pick weapons and tested their abilities. Alex, Aria, Rama, Sergei, Cindy, and Theo.
Aria, as usual, took her AWM Warfare Magnum 338, and Glock Pistol. Alex told her to also pick up a melee weapon, she needed to train on her close combat abilities, Aria took a set of short knives and put it on her hips.
Rama brought his own spear and shield, yesterday he came to the steel workshop and asked to be made a full metal spear, it's a one-handed spear, 1.6 meters length with a 40-centimeter blade. It's about 15 kilograms, too heavy for any normal fighters, but not for a high stage mortal realm user. With the longer blade, Rama can do both pierce and slash attack. Its heavy size can also be effective for smash attacks. Rama also made a full metal round shield buckler, its only 60 centimeters diameter and he held it on his back.
BANG! BANG!
"Wuhuuuu!! Did you see that both shot bullseye"
Cindy testing the 9mm pistols, since taking the 6 spirit stones, her perception is much improved, she took two 9 mm pistol and use the hip holsters.
"You should also choose a close-range weapon," Alex said
Cindy walked around the storage and finally found something that interests her... It's a bullwhip.. its made of leather and its 300 cm long.
"..."
"WHAHAAHHAHAH" Sergei laugh really hard
"I didn't know your that kind of girl... kinky"
"..."
Cindy annoyed, she swings around the whip make a loud crack. she swings around one more time and the whip suddenly tied around Sergei's feet, she pulled.
"..."
BRAKKK!! Sergei fall down
"Wow... I really like you girl... You're one feisty girl..!!"
Cindy smiles. Its been a while since she used it, her grandfather used to teach her when she was small. Alex wasn't sure if a whip will be practical, but he really doesn't want to argue with Cindy. The argument will be endless.

"What about you Sergei, what weapon do you use?"
Sergei never uses weapons before... he's a wrestler who's expert in sambo. Its a hand to hand combat using punches, kicks, elbows, knees, headbutts, throwing, gripping and holds. After some thought, he finally decided to wear steel knuckles. With his high stage mortal realm and his abnormal strength, this steel knuckles will be powerful in his hand.
Lastly Theo, he never likes violence, so he wasn't sure what to use. Alex makes it his personal goal to make sure Theo will be able to get used on weapons and able to defend himself. Theo gave a firearm a try, he didn't really like it, but he's not bad with it. Alex put a few assault rifle in his storage rings for Theo to use later. Alex also stores a machine gun, grenade launcher, and a flamethrower. As for close combat weapon, Theo really has no preference.
"What about a polearm? Theo said"
Before Alex have a chance to give a comment...
"Nah... you don't like it," Theo said
Theo continues "What about if I guess which weapon you think will be the best for me"
Alex was just thinking about the most effective weapon for Theo when he suddenly said.
"The pickaxe! really?"
"..."
Alex startle... "Bro, you did consume the spirit stones I gave you right? did you feel anything weird?"
Theo gives it some thought..."Now you mention it...I really did feel weird, I suddenly feel I can understand other people better, their thought and feeling... why? I thought its part of the stone power"
"JACKPOT!!" Alex was suddenly excited...
"If my assumption right you're one of the rare spirit enhancers, the psychic type"
The psychic, people with talent in mental power. The modern world called it Extrasensory perception or ESP, also called the sixth sense, an ability to claimed reception of information not through any physical senses, but sensed with the mind. Most people have it on a basic level, we called it intuition. Many mistakes it with high perception, but the most obvious proof are dreams. Scientist can't find the connection between perception and dreams. Dreams are one of the mysteries of the mind. Most people can sometimes experience the basic level, but to be able to breakthrough is very rare. It seems Theo is one of those lucky few. Zhao Fan the head of the Zhao China big four can be considered as the high-level psychic spirit enhancer.

Alex hopes Theo really is a psychic type spirit enhancers, he wonders what specialty he has, telekinetic, telepathy, clairvoyance or an even stronger one like Zhao Fan.
The group finally sets. Alex prepared 2 jeeps and their first destination is the biggest city in the west section, it's the Nagara city.
The city and its surrounding village should have at least 300.000 zombies. Jerry has only been backed by around 2000 survivors. Therefore the situation still has not settled. The main problem is still the mutated zombies. Alex group came and help Jerry's unit. 7 high stage human realm. Alex leading with his two katanas, Jerry and his daggers moves in with high speed, Rama's ever-flowing spear thrust and swing, Sergei explosive punches, Aria sharpshooting to cover, Theo using an assault rifle and Cindy having fun with her handguns and whip. These 7 people cut through zombies waves with the main purpose to annihilate all red zombies. If the mutated one is gone, the army could easily take over the city. Within 2 days, The city finally cleared. All survivor either send to the main base or moved to the West section survival post in the Gilimanuk city.
Alex left the defense of west section to Lieutenant Rangga, He has three tasks. first to monitor the communication signal and protect the antenna. Second to create patrol groups to secure all the small village all around the west section. Third, the lieutenant also tasked to send a scout to swim across and checking the situation in Bayuwangi city. The Easternmost city of Java island. Only 4 kilometers apart from Gilimanuk separated by the sea. Alex also left 30 spirit stones to the lieutenant to be rewarded to the most talented fighters and also for himself.
The group of seven swipe across the north section hunting for more mutated zombies until reaches the biggest city on the east section, Amalapura city. This city is a bit bigger than the Gilimanuk. Lieutenant Russel is currently in charge. It takes the group another two days to clear up all the mutated zombies. With all the survivor already left the city, the city of Amalapura was abandoned. Lieutenant Russel will guard the eastern section from the Bay city. He also prepared to train some survivors to become sailors. Alex also left a dozen spirit stone to give him and his best fighter.
The group spend two days driving around the central section, one small village to another killing red zombies and make sure each village know about the main base and its imperative before three months all people need to go move to the main base. Alex finally has the time to drop by to a very important village it's the village where Ericks and the little Vina lived.
Alex hoping to see some familiar faces, he spends many months at this place in his previous life. Erick's family was his lifesaver, and especially for little Vina, she stays with Alex for a few years, he thought of her as his own daughter. When the two jeep reaches near the village, Alex suddenly startles, A big smoke can be seen in the sky on top of the village...
"No No Nooo...!!"

8 239Dungeon Crawler Darryl
In a flash, every human-erected construction on Earth--from Buckingham Palace to the tiniest of sheds to all the trucks and cars--collapses in a heap, sinking into the ground. The fruits of millenia of human progress, atomized and transformed into the dungeon: an 18-level labyrinth filled with traps, monsters, and loot. A dungeon so enormous, it circles the entire globe. Presented with impossible situations, dire straits, an empty promise of regaining their planet or the fame of intergalactical stardom, thirteen million of the remaining humans entered this dungeon. This death trap with glamorous gore and way too many bugs. Only a few of them truly matter, the top most popular crawlers such as the ill-pantsed Carl and his elegant mistress Princess Donut. This story isn't about such glorious people, however. This story focusses on one of the dregs overlooked by the masses as they try to cling on to their life. This is the story of Darryl and friends. Note: This is a Dungeon Crawler Carl fanfic. Please support and read the original, it's really good!
