After 2 weeks, the majority of Bali survivor should already be within these 4 safe areas. The Denpasar post is the frontline facing the hordes from south section, the Gilimanuk city will be the post connecting to Java island, the Bay city and Antiga which is only 3 kilometers apart are the army and navy base. The last one is the main base, the Starbase.
Construction wise, most workers mainly still building the main base. There are now 190 warehouses built. 110 more warehouses are underway. The construction division also building the big hall for the education center. The other workers whose place in another post are focusing on turning the city into a defense base. They are mainly building walls, guard post, and the guard tower.
Today, Alex has a small meeting between the managers. The main agenda is foods. with the current population even with the food Alex confiscated from the hotel. it's estimated all the food Alex prepared before, will be gone and emptied by three months. Jane from the farming department report that the first batch of potatoes will be available in 2 months plus the second batch which is the expansion area will be available in three months, it will add 4-5 weeks to the supplies. Devita from supply department estimates her recent findings from the salvage department should also add another few weeks.

There are total 200.000 plus people staying in Bali right now, The food supplies for the next few months should be fine, but with the survivor increases, the consumption rate will also increase.
"How did it go with the animal research? Alex asked Doctor Rachel..."
"Many domesticated animals died from the disease, Cows, sheep, pigs, ducks, chickens... you name it. The one which survives become very aggressive. Some type animals have a higher survival rate, like birds and some fishes. There has been quite an increase in rats and cats sightings. Another weird thing is that we can't find any trace of insects at all... this is very disturbing...The animal behavior completely off the chart." we are currently still collecting more sample to get more accurate findings"
Alex already knows all these findings in his previous life... The next few weeks all human survivors will be facing these mutated animals. Rats and cats will be one of the first. But he was hoping this scientist could find the reason, and some idea to better kill them or domesticated them...
"I think we will find a solution to our food shortage from the seas and also hunting this animal."
"rats and cats?" The ex-governer Agung was surprised.
"Yes... let's leave it to our team of chef to be creative about it... Hunting all this animal can be left to the fighters, but they will need help with the foraging and transport, supply department will help with this. But for the fishes, there should be another sub-department to take care of this. Jane, maybe you interested? I believe your aquaponics have made some progress?"
"We currently have about three thousand fishes within the pond, still coordinating with research department if there are any abnormalities in their growth. but if everything fine. we should have ten thousand by three months, for other types of fishing probably I will organize river fishing and inshore fishing. Maybe not sea fishing at the moment"

Jane will recruit a few hundred men with experience to be a fisherman. At first, she wants to take from the farmers, but Alex thought the farmers still need more foods, so better nor multitask and prepare the new fishermen subdivision.
"So, I will leave you in charge of this Jane"
"Other than fishing, in Bali north section there was a chicken farm that breeds the Cemani chicken, it's the black chicken. This type of breed should survive the disease. but they should aggressive. Major Sandi, please prepare some of the guards to help the scavenges units. and Tony should prepare to build steel cages for the chickens... hopefully, we would still able to get eggs for breakfast in the future"
"This mutated animal meat should be popular later on when the supply start coming in, I am hoping the market will start to open, we need to facilitate trade markets for these people"
"What are we trading?" Devita asked
"Food coupons, luxury limited amenities like shampoo, toothpaste, soap anything at all. You can plan the market, its place, pricing, and people. I think by one week we should have enough items and the market can be open already. You should start collecting such item from now. Tony will help to build the market area. It would be better to build one near the storage warehouse.
"How's your luck with the Vehicles," Alex asked Devita
"We only manage to find a few older model vehicles, but with the help of the mechanic we manage to turn 2 more transporter ship."
"Great! hopefully, you can get 2 or 3 more ships"
There is nothing the education division can prepare right now, the school already started. As for the administration department, As almost all people already fill in data, he started to organize it.
When the meetings overs, Alex call on Dr. Rachel. Alex opens up an item from his storage rings. Its the amulet of the sun. After two weeks, the amulet has created another pill. Alex gives the shiny pill to the Doctor, he wishes the pill to be studied and hopefully be able to turn into a medicine serum later on. Alex has a really big hope in this project. Hopefully, the doctor could show some result soon.
The next stop will be the Fighters training. Alex drives to Antiga to check the fighters and also the Navy in the Bay city.

Again from Scratch Saga: Izmittor Unchained
If someone precious to you needed your help, would you extend it? Would you still do it if it costs you your peace and perhaps even your life? For Tercius, a man mysteriously reborn nearly thirteen years ago, there was only one answer to both questions. Feeling compelled, he sets out to journey to the northern Sogea and its infamous Western Izmittor mountain range, a natural stronghold of sky tearing mountains and deep canyons. Legends about the place abounded, but he knew without a doubt that the hidden valleys, rushing rivers, thick forests, and desolate landscapes hid powerful predators, the likes of which stalk the harsh terrains for an easy source of meat and bones. The many natural dangers of Western Izmittor would be hard enough to navigate safely for a lone traveler, but to make matters worse Tercius had enemies in the heights of Western Izmittor, humans and spirits who would see him dead if they ever learned of his true connection to the Pyramid of Tergaron and the Society of the Magi. To make things even more difficult, he also had to ensure that the true extent of his own Innate Skills remained hidden, for if the prying eyes of the world fell on him and his many secrets came to light, then he would never again know a day of peace. Can one reborn man manage to keep his secrets and still succeed in doing what his conscience compels him to? Will he have to choose one over the other? And can he do any of it without reigniting the sparks of a planetary war the likes of which had not been seen in millennia? Follow Tercius’ story and find out! *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** *** This story is a continuation of Again from Scratch, a story of mine also posted on RR.
