As soon as I pressed the option to enter the dungeon, the world around me began to tremble in an increasingly alarming way, as if the world itself was glitching. Walls, and floor, began to crumble one above the other, leaving me floating in a void of nothingness.
[Time Walking Dungeon Initiated…]
No shit Sherlock.
[Setting Augmented Virtual Reality Parameters…]
I wonder how this will differ between a normal dungeon and such, in terms of AI.
[Task Complete…]
[Loading World… Avengers: The Rise of Ultron V0121]
[Task Complete]
[Welcome to your first Time Walking Dungeon, before you begin, there are a few things you must know, a few rules and tips so to speak.
Infinity Stones are banned in the simulation, the use of one will void all wins, this includes, but it's not limited to, EXP, Items, and others.
Now, that's the only rule in the simulation, let's talk about the tips!
This World operates just like your own, with the minor difference it's not entirely real, so beware. The AI in this world operates on precise levels meaning every NPC thinks it's alive and will react to your approaches like any living being would.
So beware, NPCs will attack you if they deem you a threat, so proceed with caution.
Last but not least, the last, rule, I know, I know, I said only one rule, but this one doesn't affect the simulation like the first one, this one it's more of a minor ban.
You can't talk about the simulation, well… you can, but NPCs on both sides would not understand you, leaving them ignoring you.
That's all, enjoy the simulation, and remember to have fun!~]
God, it even had one of those voices that go well with this type of simulation monologue, I'm not sure whether to feel excited or…
[Entering World…]
In the blink of an eye, I was no longer in my apartment, but in the middle of
a forest.
"Where the fuck am I?" I muttered, opening the map.
[Sokovia]
Ahh, well that explains the forest and the snow.
"Grraaar!!!" A roar, one powerful enough to shake the entire forest, that has to be the Hulk.
"Well, time to see the Avengers kicking some whatever you call someone from Sokovia ass," I decided, activating one of my spells, [Eldritch Illusion: Invisibilty]
—-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It didn't take me long to find the Avengers, with Hulk roaring every two seconds, it was a matter of following his roars, I didn't even need to use my map or minimap to track them.
"On it!" I heard someone say, flying past me, who? Iron Man.
"Language!" That must be Capicicle.
For a few moments, I watched Cap, Iron Man, and Hulk obliterate the poor Sokovian soldiers, sitting on the ground with literal snacks I had pulled from my inventory to enjoy the show until I decided to see how Nat was doing.
Running towards her, I quickly reached her fighting point, to see her solo a squadron of soldiers with little to no difficulty, and not gonna lie, I was feeling the need of hugging her.
"That's not your Nat," I muttered under my breath, and immediately after, Hawkboy shot an arrow in my direction.
I looked at the arrow longed in the tree behind and inwardly chuckled, when they said the AI was better, I didn't expect this kind of better.
"What are you shooting at?" Nat asked Hawkeye, as she cracked the neck of one of the soldiers underneath her with her legs.
"Someone," Hawkeye replied, bow moving left and right, great, he was looking for me. "My earpiece caught notice of a sound, a man speaking, he said something about you, couldn't quite make out what…"
"Well, it wouldn't be the first time an enemy tries to flirt with me," Nat snorted, looking around, meaning she believed him.
Ok, I have seen enough, time to do like every Disney parent, and vanish from here.
With that thought settled, I walked out of their zone, making sure not to be heard, my direction this time? The Hydra Base, I was curious to see how it looked, considering I had probably bombed in the real world.
—----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I walked inside the base ignoring the energy shield around it thanks to my portals, and started to inspect the base room by room, wondering if maybe getting the mind stone before the Avengers would complete the dungeon…. I mean, without Tony pulling a Skynet move, there was no Rise of Ultron.
"Meh, it's worth a shot," I shrugged, searching for the stone on my map.
Two rooms down, on the second level.
Easy enough, considering everyone outside is advancing at a dramatic pace, I should have enough time to get the stone and get my rewards.
As I walked to the second level of the base, I caught notice of something, the Maximoff twins, at the sight of them I frowned, I already knew Pietro, and he didn't look that.
[Pietro Maximoff - Clone LV 129
Description: His the failed clone of the original Pietro, meaning that his powers in result are but a fraction of what the original Pietro can do.
While his level is relatively low, his superspeed enables him to face opponents far stronger than him
Current Thought: He wants to fight the Avengers.]
A clone… once I get out of here I need to contact the original Pietro to check if… well if he has a clone or some sci-fi shit.
Without making a noise, I turned to face Wanda.
[Wanda Maximoff - */*-/ LV 221 [REAL LEVEL LOCKED]
Description: Unlike her brother, Wanda is the perfect product, because, unlike Pietro who was born thanks to the hands of Hydra, Wanda was born thanks to the hands of Chaos.
Her powers are a danger to anyone.
Current Thought: She is wondering who you are…]
Say what now?
"I can see you," Wanda muttered, tilting her hand to the side, doing her weird hand move before a bolt of chaotic energy blasted me into a wall, like quite literally, I was in a hole, inside the wall.
"Next time, open the conversation with… I don't know? A hi, how are you, maybe?" I replied, seeing my HP refill back to full.
"Who are you?" Pietro asked, moving Wanda's side at superspeed, fast enough for me to probably have troubles chasing him, but nothing compared to the Pietro I knew.
"I'm just a guy, in a hole," I replied, walking out of the hole.
"I can relate," Pietro shrugged.
"I can't," Wanda replied, her hands glowing red.
"Children, you don't want to play with me," I smiled, cracking my neck, not for dramatic purposes, but because her attack had kinda annoyed my neck, and cracking it was just the thing to fix it, it just happened to be extremely coincidental I cracked it while saying a relatively badass line.

I looked at Wanda and Pietro as I clenched my fists with a tired sigh, when I had infiltrated the base, fighting had not been my intention.
"Who are you?" Wanda spoke, her hands glowing red, brimming with chaotic energy, even from afar I could feel her energy fluctuating in a rather dangerous way that spoke of her inexperience using her powers.
I frowned at that.
This wasn't right…
Her energy felt… real, too real, this augmented reality shit was too fucking good, and not in a particularly good way, NPCs before today were that… simple NPCs, but this… this feels like a real person, and that disturbs me.
The worst part is, I don't even know why it disturbs me, it just does.
"Well, school is open," Pietro winked, before moving behind me in what to others would've looked like a flash, the boy was fast, sadly, that was not going to be enough, "And I'm about to teach you a few things," he added, starting his advance with great speed.
I could've dodged his attacks, or stopped him altogether, but I was testing a theory, so I simply stayed out, and in less than fifteen seconds seconds.
Pietro had delivered a flurry of attacks all around my body.
Forty kicks on my back, eighty punches to my jaw, and sixty two knee strikes to my nuts.
They did nothing.
"That didn't even tickle," I said, taking a step forward with sigh, in the end my theory proved to be correct. In the end his attacks had all been negated by my defense. First time that happens, usually people can actually harm me, maybe not by much, but still… they can harm me.
"What in the hell?" Pietro muttered, taking a step back, his cocky smile still in place, but wavering ever so lightly.
"Pietro move!" Wanda shouted, as I approached the shocked Pietro.
"On it!" Pietro nodded, but found himself in a sticky situation.
Telekinesis, what a wonderful skill.
"Fuck," Pietro cursed, as Wanda proceeded to attack me with the same attack she had used a few moments ago on me.
This time however, I was ready, and used an attack of my own to dissipate hers.
She was powerful, sure, and under the right circumstances, she would be able to defeat me, but she was still too green.
"What?" Wanda muttered in shock, before she shook her head snapping out of her surprise, throwing another attack.
Which I also blocked.
So she kept going until I had walked past her brother, and was standing face to face with her.
"Good night," I smiled, and before she could try to attack once again, I punched her in the jab, knocking her out.
"WANDAAA!" Pietro screamed, as Wanda fell to the ground with a thud.
"She's fine," I assured him, staring into his rage fueled glare. "Take her," I sighed, releasing Pietro from my telekinetic hold.
And just like that, they were gone.
"Well, time to check the—-" I didn't get to finish that sentence, a small, yet powerful missile blasted through the walls, hitting me.
It all happened so fast, that by the time I had opened my eyes again, which was after the blinding explosion, I was on the scorched ground, sighing.
"Hi buddy," Tony waved from his armor, aiming his weapons at me.
[The Mark XLII- LV 189
Pilot = Tony Stark LV 29
Co-Pilot = J.A.R.V.I.S.
Powers and Weapons = Superhuman Strength, Superhuman Durability, Flight, Repulsors, Sentry Mode, Smart Micro Guns, Missiles.]
"Well that's one way of greeting someone," I sighed as I stood up from the ground.
"No no, don't move," Tony warned, red dots appearing all over my body.
"Tin can man, you don't want to do this," I chuckled, "I'm not even your enemy,"
"Oh, it's this a hydra base slash Starbucks? If so, I would love a latte with extra whip cream… no no, wait, two lattes, Thor wants one," Tony replied in very Tony manner, this AI was certainly advanced as fuck.
"So you won't believe me?" I asked, and instead of replying, the son of bitch blasted me with his repulsor through a wall.
"That oughts to keep him down," Tony muttered, turning around.
"It won't," I whispered into his robotic ear, before punching him right in the helmet through a few walls. "You know, the whole punching an enemy through a wall it's therapeutic, I know understand why everyone does it,"
"I agree!" Tony shot back, trying to blast me through another wall, this time however I was ready, and blocked the attack with a barrier.
"Well that's embarrassing," I replied, looking at him.
"I sadly agree," Tony muttered, before doing his famous chest blast, I wonder what is that called.
Once again, I stood in place, my barrier blocking the attack.
"So… about that coffee…" Tony chuckled, taking a few steps back in shock that his armor was doing nothing.
Sadly that wasn't the case, his armor was doing a lot, it's just I was blocking most of his attacks with a magical barrier, a few extra attacks he would get the desired results.
But he didn't need to know that, right?
"Two lattes coming right up," I grinned, pulling his body towards me with a sudden telekinetic pull that took him one second to counter with his propulsors.
The second I needed to close the gap between us.
Once in front of him, I grabbed Tony by the arm, and started punching using [Savagery], Tony as expected struggled, and trashed around, but I didn't let gov and by punch number twenty, I had managed break his armor open like a tuna can, pulling Tony out of his armor.
"Well, it was fun!" I winked at Tony, tossing his armor to the side.
"No it wasn't, but this it," Tony smirked, as the Green behemoth known as the hulk jumped into the building, landing right in front of me.
Well fuck m— and I was flying across the air like a rag doll, getting Juggernaut flashbacks here.
