章 15: Dungeon (1634 Words)
Where am I?´´A blue gem like orb though as it awakened from a long sleep.
What happen to my body!´´He asked himself with a trace of panic.
Okay first calm down and analyse like you have always have. Haaa...
First: Im in a dark place but I can still see or more correctly sens my surrounding.
Second: It looks like I became a crystal.
Now with these information's I come to two conclusions.
First: Im dreaming or hallucinating and nothing is real that I see at the moment.
Second: I somehow became a crystal and got transported into a very dark place that is completely sealed of.
The first option is hard to believe because it is to detailed, I can feel, smell, taste, see and surprisingly also hear whatever I touch with my new sensing ability and there are tastes that I never encountered before so I shouldn't be able to dream about them.
If I go with the second option then I seemingly got reincarnated as dungeon core or something the like and have to create my own dungeon now....
[That is correct] Sounds a metallic voice through my head
HAAA!! DONT JUST POP UP LIKE THAT YOU CREEP!!!´´ I scream in a moment of surprise ans shock.
HmHmmm..... Sorry you startled me there ehh System?´´ I ask after calming down.
[Correct Im the supportive system for new dungeon cores like you.] The system answers while ignoring my short outbreak.
So what are your function that while help me?
[I will answer your questions and Inform you about your ability's]
Thats it? No shop, menu ore status?
[How would I be able to sell you anything Im just a spiritual guide and I already told you my functions so no need for a menu. The ability to see the information's/status is already in your possession and comes to effect when you focus your senses onto something.]
Hmm Makes sense and thanks for the explanation.
[It is my duty and honor]
Ignoring the last part I set my focus on the voice of the system and instantly information about the system appears in my mind.
Instead of the expected game like status a detailed introduction about the systems structure ability's and materials appears before my inner eye.
Im confident that with these information's Im more than capable to crate and recreate my own spiritual guide. But first I have to set my focus on some of the key concepts of the explanation like Mana, artificial soul, rune coding and spiritual connections.
Mana: A energy of the second rank, produced from life and soul force which are first rank energy's.
These two produce Mana and Ki with these energy's most living beings interact the third rank energy's such as elements, spiritual power and aura. The strength of a being isnt measured by the amount but by the level of control of there energy. Novice, Intermediate, Apprentice, Proficient, Master, Grand Master, Perfected.
Artificial soul: A technique to create a living being that is able to grow in power and also learn techniques. But in case of death the soul shatters instead of staying for seven days and nights before going to there respective gods, heavens or hells.
Rune coding: A technique used to give orders, personality or patterns to golems. This also works for artificial souls or other artificial created beings. Only usable in the creation process.
Spiritual connections: A technique to connect the minds of different living beings. Can be countered by strong willed or intelligent beings.
For the techniques there are also manuals, so I should able to use them with some practice.
Back to my current situation.
System what do I have to do now?
[I recommend you to begin expanding your cave and then create the first monsters which you can chose once you the reach needed capacity to create them]
And how do I dig without limbs? Also dose expanding the dungeon also increase the amount of Mana I can use and because of that I have to reach a specific size to create monsters?
[You can use your will as limbs and dig with that you while get the hang of it pretty fast and for the second question, Yes you are spot on.]
A other question, where am I, because I dont want to dig into someones basement per accident.
[You dont have to worry about that, you are in a special dimension which is a copy of the original world but before any other form of life expect plants existed and you have around a week time before the desire to create a connection to the World gets to strong. Of course if you can withstand it then you have longer to prepare.]
Very practical so no one other than me is here and this desire to create a connection to the main World is most likely there to ensure that young dungeons dont just stay in there dimension.
Shifting my focus back to the expanding project I look on one of the walls and will it to form a quadratic corridor that is three meters high and wide he also should go around ten meters long.
Then I stunned observe as the wall begins to crumble to crystal like dust that fly's to my core and gets absorbed by it.
The feeling that accompanied this process is very comfortable like you just took a big gulp of warm coffee.
With the feeling also came a rising energy that drives me on to proceed with the expansion.
I start to form a mental image of how I want to expand my dungeon and then will it expand following this image.
I observe as the core room begins to crumble till it forms large room that is 30m wide, 6m high and 40m long.
While I watched the core room change the ten meter long corridor grew to a full 30m in length with many smaller and cruder tunnels on the walls of the main corridor. These smaller corridors are around 60 cm in high and width, they are connected to the core room.
Once the last dust vanishes into my core a heavy wave of fatigue crushes my consciousness and all goes black.
A unknown amount of time later I finally awake and I instantly notice a feeling that seems to tell me that it has grown tremendous in size. Unsure what exactly it was I ask the system.
System I have a feeling that something has grown massive in size but I cant recognize what it is.
[That is most likely your mana pool, with your expansion you must have emptied it and then fallen into a short hibernation to refill it. But now after the expansion your mana pool has grown in size so you have a lot more than before.]
Thanks for the information, but do I still have to expand or am I already able to chose a monster?
[The size of the dungeon and the amount of your Man has reached the needed amount to chose you first monster.]
[Monster:
{Wolf} A wolf not much to say.
{Boar} Big hairy and has tusks.
{Slime} Slow but you dont want to stand on it if you still want your shoes.
{Kobold} Fast, flexible but extreme cowardly.
{Goblin} Rabbit like pest but dumber and more violent.
{lesser Imp} Crafty little rats that just dont want to go away.
{lesser Skeleton} Smart like a dead person and sturdy like a the rotten bones that is there body.
The descriptions arent that informative but I already have a plan so I ignore the rest and chose the goblins.
As soon as I did a blueprint appears in my mind,it is already finished and ready for production but I take a closer look and try to understand the concept in more depth.
Soon I found what I was looking for, the part that defines the gender of the goblin. This blueprint only gives me access to the male version but for my plan I also need females. My plan is create a goblin nest, not a village like other protagonists have made I want them to reproduce en mass so that once I have to open the connection to the main World a army stands between my core and the outside .
I dont want to take the risk of only have some individual somewhat strong soldiers that may not even be considered a treat by the outside. So I go with an army of endless reproducing canon fooder that I maybe can also use to level up other minions in the future.
Focusing back on the blueprint I first fuel it with Mana and create a normal dungeon goblin while closely observing the whole process.
As soon as the process ended a goblin appears on the floor, he is small around 45cm high and has a scrawny body with dirty green skin that has some ugly deformations, the limbs are thine without much muscles but on the hands and feet are sharp claws. The head has no hair but two pointy long ears on each side and in the face are two beady eyes that look around a big crocked nose that reaches down to the mouth in which are a lot of sharp pointy teethes.
He is so fucking ugly!!
But that doesn't matter now. I think as I focus on the goblin and information's begin to appear in my mind.
After a while searching through the data from the goblin I come to the conclusion that dungeon monster cant reproduce apparently.
Time to change that.
Diving deep into the sea of data I start to combine, change and create a functioning reproducing using my knowledge of the human race as the base.
