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.

The clock is ticking down to the wire. The Nine Dragons have mobilized their forces, and the team is running out of time. Their only hope is to get the critical data into the hands of the media, but escaping the safe house alive has just become the priority. 


The team gathers their things in a frenzy. Desks are overturned, monitors smashed, and the air is thick with the scent of fear and adrenaline. 


Kiran, eyes sharp, slaps a few buttons on the control panel. The screens blink to life, showing their last-ditch effort to ensure the data goes public. "The media’s got the story. We need to keep it that way." 


But suddenly, a loud crash echoes from outside. Gunfire rings out, followed by the screech of tires. Bintang immediately goes to the window, eyes scanning the night for the incoming threat. 


Felix, already pulling on his tactical gear, turns to the team. "Time’s up. We’re going out the back. Stay close, and stay quiet. I’ll lead."
