As the Nine Dragons Syndicate tightens its grip on Southeast Asia, a new and enigmatic leader emerges from the shadows. Known only as The Jade Dragon, this figure is unlike any of the original nine—an outsider whose ambitions threaten not only the region but the very balance of power within the syndicate itself. The Jade Dragon's rise sparks internal discord, pitting the nine original leaders against one another in a high-stakes struggle for dominance.
Amid this chaos, Felix, a former enforcer turned reluctant ally, leads a team of unlikely heroes in uncovering the syndicate's long-buried secrets. Their investigation reveals a chilling truth: the Jade Dragon is linked to the very origins of the syndicate, holding the key to its rise—and potentially its fall. As the team dives deeper, they discover that the Jade Dragon’s plans extend beyond crime and corruption. Harnessing ancient curses and cutting-edge biotechnology, this new leader aims to unleash an environmental catastrophe that could reshape the region’s resources for their control.
David, still grappling with the power and burden of the Dragon Crown, must confront the haunting visions it brings, which are tied to the Jade Dragon’s dark legacy. Mayang, whose plant-based abilities are fading, must rediscover her connection to nature to counteract the syndicate's devastating environmental damage. Clarissa, driven by personal loss, infiltrates the syndicate's fractured inner circle to exploit their infighting. Thalia, with her psychic connection to Southeast Asia's ancient spiritual roots, begins to see visions of a greater threat—a prophecy of the “Tenth Dragon” who will bring either salvation or destruction.
The stakes rise as the syndicate unravels from within. The Jade Dragon manipulates the chaos, forcing old alliances to shatter and new alliances to form. Trust is a fragile commodity among the team, especially when Felix's shadowed past resurfaces, and his loyalty is questioned. Even more dangerous

The Rise of the Nine Dragons – Echo of the Nine Dragons

Nusantara (IKN), Indonesia’s new capital city, sprawls across the land like a glimmering new frontier—a city under construction, its ambitious skyline rising amidst the lush, untouched forests. Amidst the dust and construction zones, there are whispers of the Nine Dragons, whose business dealings threaten both the environment and the lives of the people around them. The massive reclamation project under the guise of "green development" sets the stage for a tense battle. 


Clarissa had only been in IKN for a few days, but the disparity between the sleek new buildings and the fragile environment surrounding them hit her every time she stepped outside. The so-called “green” reclamation project threatened to swallow the last untouched nature reserve on the city’s outskirts—a vital piece of land rich with biodiversity. Behind the glossy proposals lay a much darker truth.
