Sen De La

The Rise of the Nine Dragons – Shadows Over Southeast Asia is an epic tale of a group of individuals facing the looming threat of a powerful organized crime syndicate, the Nine Dragons Syndicate, which holds a tight grip over the economy and politics of Southeast Asia. The story follows the journey of Bintang, a former journalist, and Sebastian, a time traveler, as they confront the cunning tactics and dark forces led by influential figures like Tian Hao and Yun Feng. 
Set against the vibrant backdrop of Jakarta and Indonesia's new capital (IKN), the core conflict revolves around political ambition, environmental crises, and economic manipulation. The tension arises as personal political agendas clash with the greater good, forcing Bintang and his team—comprising a former hacker, a diplomat, an environmental activist, and a conservation officer—to battle not just for justice but for the future of their land. Together, they face an enemy that wields not only power and wealth but also the ability to disrupt the natural balance.
At the same time, we have Heru, a character-driven by revenge and the pursuit of scientific advancements. His motivations create a tension-filled dynamic within the narrative, adding depth to the ongoing conflict between Bintang's team and the Nine Dragons.

Felix moves through the shadows outside the safe house, his movements swift and precise. Armed with a silenced pistol, he sets up defensive measures: trip alarms, motion sensors, and backup escape routes. He knows the Nine Dragons won’t wait long to send their enforcers. 


Through his earpiece, he hears Clarissa’s voice. "Felix, report." 


Felix, crouching near a window. "Perimeter secured for now. But I spotted movement two blocks out. They’re closing in, Clarissa." 


Clarissa, from inside. "Hold them off as long as you can. Eka needs time to finish blocking their digital attack. Kiran and I are fortifying our comms network." 


Felix, smirking grimly. "Don’t worry about me. Just make sure Eka gets it done." 


As Felix watches the approaching figures, he tightens his grip on his weapon. "It’s going to get loud out here."
