Alex and the group arrived at the Antiga city, the city was now turned into a Fighters training base. The reason was simple, this city is located strategically between the Bay city and Star Base. The city provides ready built houses for the fighters to stay and enough walls for protection. The workers have diligently upgraded these wall these past couple of days. They also built the watchtower around the city. It's a simple small city, with traditional Balinese houses and temples all around the city.
Before doomsday, this city had around 50.000 inhabitants. The current population of fighters and workers has reached almost 60.000, therefore the city has already reached its maximum capacity. There were some big tents set up as temporary accommodation for the fighters.
In the city outskirts, there were multiple training sessions being held. Alex saw thousands of fighters keen to learn the art of combat. Although most had no combat experience, these people joined as fighters by choice. Almost everyone lost loved ones during the outbreak, many of them were still traumatized by it. This training could be their solution, or it could also be a distraction away from their misery.
There were 5000 firearms fighters chosen. These people got a more focused firearm training program taught by the army marksman experts, they were trained to be long-range fighters. Most came from the police department, army, animal hunters or just people experienced in shooting from games. They were taught basic tactics and target practice.
The remaining 50.000 fighters had more diverse training. To train such big numbers, these groups were separated into 10 divisions. Each division consists of 100 instructors that handle 50 men each. In total 1000 instructors were formed, suddenly almost all the special forces and army turned into temporary instructors.
This was a fast training course design by Captain Farell, the Oxford graduates military intelligence.
10 basic training session within 10 days
1. Introductions to weapons and guns
2. Basic spear and shield combat
3. Basic saber combat
4. Weapons sparring test
5. Formation training
6. Basic outdoor survival
7. Pencak silat forms and movement techniques
8. Pencak silat art basic defense
9. Pencak silat art basic offense
10. Hand to Hand sparring test
The aim of these fast courses was not to build up their stamina and physical strength like any other military training. The spirit stones will help in that sector. This is a 10 days basic training that followed with advanced training. Only the men that passed basic training can join advanced training. The instructors also can choose up to 5 men from each unit to be recommended into the elite forces.
The advanced training would place the fighter into its real unit and would go for a real combat situation, fighting zombies or mutated animals, while still being guided by the instructors. They will also be taught about leadership and teamwork
Alex came into the command center and met with Major Sandi, Mahaguru Indra, Colonel Jaka, Captain Farell, Commander Karra and a few of the instructors.
"How many out of the 50.000 passed basic training?"
"Barely half" Captain Farell said.
"I see... that's considered good enough. These people were farmers and workers who never held a weapon before. Having half of them pass basic training in 10 days is considered good enough. Keep up the strict selection. I don't wish these survivors to die on the first day out. Repeated training will give them more confidence. If after the third time they still won't pass just tell them to join the workers' group instead"
"How about the elite units?"
"Out of the half that passed, we, the instructors, have chosen 3000 elite fighters. These fighters are the combination of those who actually have experience in martial arts or have a special talent in one. There are also some that came from talented law enforcement officers."
Major Sandi said "We have a total of 320 special forces combined from death squads, Densus 88, Frog commandos and Red Barret. There are also 120 Red belts from the Pencak Silat society.
Alex thought for a while, there were 25.000 inexperienced fighters, 3000 elite fighters, and 500 special fighters. He wondered if this number will be enough to help the survivors from the Java islands. There were also 15 million people combined from the islands east of Bali.
"Grandmaster, what do you think? Is it wise to send them to fight now? Are they ready?"
Mahaguru Indra was not sure how to answer. 10 days really are too short of a time.
If the men were not ready and Alex sent them to fast, he wondered how many would return, but if he sent them too late, how many of those millions of people would survive. These fighters needed to be ready and they were needed quickly. The fastest way to get them ready was spirit stones.
"How many spirit stones have we gathered so far?"
"About 700", Colonel Jaka said.
Alex himself has collected about 300 stones. It is not enough. This is the very early stage of the doomsday, there were not enough spirit stones around for everyone. Those rats and cats meat are not high-level mutated animals, it would take too long to get stronger by eating that meat.
Alex could only think of one very risky way to solve this problem. He wondered if it will be necessary, but considering what's at stake, Alex decided to do it. A dangerous expedition to a village called Ubud up in the mountain at the central section of Bali.
This time it will be a very dangerous mission, he needed to be prepared. He brought the new list provided by Benny and the list of special fighters. Alex recognized a few more spirit enhancers' names from his previous life.
Raisa was a famous beautiful Indonesian singer. She came to Bali for an end of year concert. This girl has the voice of an angel, a superstar. She's also a psychic spirit enhancer. Her singing could unconsciously mesmerize people's hearts. Too bad she's not one of those fighting types, at least not yet. Alex couldn't bring her to a dangerous mission, not every girl was as strong as Aria or as crazy as Cindy.
Oscar and Oliver, the lightning twins. Both were in Alex previous life as the few strongest survivors from West Bali. They never worked with anyone and were actually a troublesome youth. In this life, both of them got to move to Star Base and later to Antiga. They have experience in fighting zombies, hence both were now high-rank mortal realm.
Darius, a guy in his 40's, once a rich and well-known businessman in Bali, many of the locals, and even the government knew him. Unfortunately, he lost all his family and friends in the disaster. He's one of those survivors who crazily fought at the front looking for death. Someone Alex could relate to in his past life. He also already ate a few spirit stones these last few days from hunting mutated zombies. A spirit enhancer talented in gravity, in the previous life he created and led the strongest survival group in Bali.
Four more spirit enhancers, plus Jerry, Aria, Rama, Sergei, Theo, and Jane. Now there were 10 spirit enhancers in his team. There should still be some more, but Alex would only know after the Doomsday pillars arrived. Exclude Raisa and Jane, Alex gathered the rest 8 men, Cindy and the 4 white sash 'pendekar' from pencak silat society. Alex gave each person enough spirit stones to reach the peak stage of the mortal realm. These people needed time to consume the spirit stones. Alex told them to gather first thing in the morning for a very special mission.
The next morning Alex chose another 3 squads of 10 men each from the special forces to come. Everyone prepared their pieces of equipment, Alex put some into his storage rings. All totaled 44 men fully armed, they took 4 APV and drove to Ubud village, a place in the mountains surrounded by forest and well known for its 'monkey forest'.
