"We only have 278 days left... That's roughly 9 months." someone murmured.
Alex just looked around and observed who was coming today, he noticed that everyone on the room, the President of the United States, General Mac, the President of Russia, even the members of Alex's entourage looked restless when they heard this.
Rico walked over to Alex.
"Alex... what the hell! That's outrageous. How can we win against hundreds of millions of monsters stronger than the orcs?" he said
In Alex's previous life, this first tribulation wiped out the entire population of the world. Only those who took refuge in the Doomsday Pillar survived. The densely populated city area became the hot-spot for mutated zombies while other areas were filled with these monsters.
After a few seconds of letting them digest his words, Alex continued.
"There are only 2 solutions for us to face this tribulation."
Hearing that, everyone immediately said "Please explain Mr. Alex."
"The first solution is to stay in the Doomsday Pillar area. When you cleared the 10th floor, you will get access to the healing pod which will help your fighter's survival a lot. Then you can proceed to the 40th floor where there is another facility which will serve as a defensive mechanism at the pillar."
"What kind of facility?" Someone asked.
"Spirit Shield, a facility that has a defensive mechanism whereby it releases protective energy around the pillar to prevent those monsters from entering the pillar area. The size of the shield depends on how many residents there are in the pillar, meanwhile the strength and duration of the shield depends on the number of spirit stones prepared."
"The damn spirit stone again!" someone exclaimed, irritation apparent in his voice.
"This pillar solution is fairly easy to execute and a solution to all our problems. But I can't help feeling that we are somehow being taken advantage of." said Regent Suryo.
The regent's words made the leaders present nod in understanding. Alex also agreed with the regent's opinion.
Alex is still very curious about the purpose of the Doomsday Pillar to come down to Earth.
Why does its appearance coincides with the arrival of the plague and the monsters on the Earth?
Alex believes these two events must be linked in some way.
President McCord responded
"Then, we should immediately evacuate the residents from the existing posts and cities and then gather them in a few Doomsday Pillars. Is that what you mean Mr. Alex?"
"Correct Mrs. President, that's exactly what I mean." Alex nodded.
A very mysterious middle-aged man and a representative from the pillar in Germany said something.
Hearing that man's word, Alex was interested in knowing about this person, but when he saw a familiar man standing behind him, Alex suddenly realized who he was.
"I see… Is that person behind you named Hans? He made trouble for me in Mexico. So I suspect you are the person behind this Nazi organization."
Hearing the word Nazi, many eyes suddenly looked at the man.
Everybody suddenly remembered everything this Nazi organization did in the past.
"It is part of our past history. My name is Heinrich and my organization is known as the Ahnenerbe. I hope we can both put aside our grudge in the past and work together for the future." He explained with a smile on his face.
All the words that came out of this man's mouth were very neat and polite, but his expression and gestures did not show the same attitude. This man is a person that cannot be underestimated.
"Of course Mr. Heinrich. Looking at our conditions now, we must help each other on this fight." Alex smiled while snickering in his mind.
'I need to keep an eye on this guy, can't let him watch my back. That will be the end of me.
The German man's smile seemed to widen and he continued.
"Then Mr. Alex, I have a question regarding your troops's progress in the Doomsday Pillar."
"Sure, go ahead." Alex replied
"Have your troops fought on the 31st floor? If so, how is it?"
"No we haven't."
"I see, why is that? You are from the future aren't you Mr.Alex? You should know how."
"What is your point Mr. Heinreich? Let's not beat around the bush shall we?
"Well Mr. Alex, here's the thing. We lost a lot of good fighters trying to clear the 31st floor. The enemy's power is no joke, the difficulity is very hard compared to the previous floor. So my point is that the first solution can only be done by countries or communities that have fighters strong enough to clear the 40th floor."
At Heinrich's words, everyone reassesses the probability of the first solution.
"Yes Mr. Heinrich, you are absolutely right. The 31st floor and above is only a place for the Sky realm Knight and Magus fighter, it is not recommended for anyone under that realm to try."
"I would even suggest sending the Sky realm fighters only after they reached the middle stage to guarantee the fighter's chance of survival."
James who had spent a lot of time at the pillar decided to say something.
"Alex, The amount of spirit stones required for upgrading to Sky realm are too much. I assume it will take a lot more to upgrade to the middle stage. Is that why you move around doing the second challenge at different pillars? Is that what you do in Australia? Obtaining spirit credits?"
"You will only get the extra bonus reward in the first try, whereas the second time will only give you the normal reward and then the third time will be less reward until you get almost nothing on the 10th try. So… yes and no."
Hearing Alex's explanation, it seemed that the first solution had suddenly turned out to be quite possible. The only problem is convincing people to the Doomsday Pillar. If what Alex said is true the leaders will be very busy in the next 9 months, clearing all the pillars in their surrounding region.
The old lady seated on his opposite finally decided to speak.
"Mr Alex, let us hear your second solution now."
"Of course Elder Zhao."
Alex knew this elder very well from his previous life. This elder is one of the strongest saints in the world, she is humanity's hope of survival. So he has a lot of respect for her.
"The second solution is to destroy the gate of the abyss before the countdown hits zero."
"!!!"
Everyone gasped at Alex's word. His solution this time was even more outrageous, making the listeners even more amazed.
At his word, General Max made another comment.
"Hahaha!! Mr. Alex this solution is exactly what I like, an excellent solution indeed. I never like to quiver in base like a coward. Let's fight them!" shouted General Max excitedly.
Alex then continued.
"I'm sure everyone can imagine the difficulty of this task. Attacking behind enemy lines is not like taking a walk in a park. To make this task possible, we will need many peak stage Sky realm fighters with advanced skills and artifacts."
"How many fighters do we need?" someone asked.
"As many as we can."
Hearing Alex's vague answer, Cardinal Strauss spoke again.
"Going to the depth of hell... many will not return. Tell me Mr. Alex, has anyone ever managed to do this in your future?"
"No, not before the first tribulation. So yeah, no one ever succeed."
Alex tells them about the fighters who tried to enter the gate of abyss before the first tribulation and never came back out.
A few years later, a group of Saint realm experts tried again and succeeded. But at that time there was no benefit from destroying the abyss gate because the second tribulation had already started.
"I know it is difficult for all of you, sending your fighters into the unknown peril. So that's why I will enter with my fighters first, paving the way. Naturally, I would welcome any assistance from you."
"When and where will you do it?"
"Bali Island, 8 months from now."
