.....
In the middle of the certain room in the biggest building, you can see a middle aged man, sitting on the chair while typing something on the computer.
*Knock, Knock, Knock*
"Mmm, Come in." Said by the old while putting his glasses down.
*Door opening SFX*
A man entered his room and go towards his front and perform a salute.
"Sorry for disturbance, General."
"It's fine, I'm already finished anyway."
"Yes, I came here to report that some of the people that is part of the 'Zero Team' that we dispatched yesterday for that mission, have been successfully escorted and arrived here safely with the rescued civilians."
"I see, what's their status?"
"Some of the members of the team are slightly injured but they already received some medical attentions, and some of the civilians are ill but we already have them checked up before we let them in, just in case that some of them are carrying some virus or anything, but we discovered that it was just a common cold since some of them haven't eaten anything for a few days, good thing that they got rescued before anything bad happens to them."
"Mmm, I see, that's good, anything else?"
"Yes, The Scouting Team that we dispatched to find the remaining members of the 'Zero Team' had already finished Scouting the whole part of the possible area but they didn't find any traces of any of them, they sended us a message that they will do a another run around the area just to make sure that they didn't miss something, they also said that they picked up a distress signal inside "The zone", they are thinking that it must be them but they didn't do anything about it since the signal is coming from the near center of the zone, they said that it was too deep and dangerous for them to go in. They also said that the signal is really weak since they just detected it barely, when they move closer to the border of the zone. That might be the reason why we didn't detected any distress signal coming from that area. They are currently standby and waiting for the new orders, General."
"*Sigh*, Alright, We'll discuss about that later but for now, tell them to return here first and wait for further instructions."
"Yes, there's something else, General. It was reported to me by one of the soldiers that partake in the rescuing of the members of the Zero team and the civilians earlier."
"Mmm, What is it?"
"He said that, while they were returning to base, he noticed a weird building in the center of the city, he took a photo of it and show it to me. Here it is General, please look at it." Said by the man while giving the tablet that shows a picture in it.

The General wear his glasses and look at the picture that is shown at the tablet.
"Mmm, it really is weird, it's my first time seeing something like that, the design is really peculiar. did we have an information about this building?"
"Yes, I already search for the documents and the plans of the building in that area and I discovered that, the owner of that building is named Kirako Shimada, he was the Founder and CEO of the GCK company, I tried to search for him to contact him and ask about the building but I discovered that he was with the unfortunate one's that didn't manage to survive at the first day of 'the test', anyway they contacted the Gunko Builders inc. for the construction of the building in that area, the building was supposed to be a Condominium building, they started building it in just a couple of months ago so it wasn't supposed to be finished yet. This is the copy of the plans and layout for the building, General." Said by the man while giving some papers and documents in the General.
"Mmm..." The General flip the documents and read some of it and just took a quick glance of the rest of the pages before shutting it close again.
"..*ahem*, as you can see there general, the layout of the building was supposed to be different than the one that is shown in the picture earlier, even though it isn't finished yet, they said that the whole structure of the building is already made and finished, but the structure of the building in the photo is completely different."
".. I see, that is really something, we should send some team to scout the area and check that building and see if something was there."
"Actually General, I already dispatched some drones around the area to do some scouting and check if there is something suspicious in there since we-"
Suddenly, the man that is speaking stopped and listen to his communicator in his ears.
".. Yes... Already?... Alright, wait for a second... General, it seems that the drone that I dispatched had already arrived at the area a few minutes ago, the drone has a live footage of the area right now, do you want to see it, general?"
".. Alright, let me see."
"Okay, ..... Alright, Connect the footage here at the Main room."
After a few seconds, a big screen appear in front of them and a certain video was played in it.
"..It is really different compare to the one that is shown in the plan of the building." Muttered by the general.
"Yes general, and it looks like it was finished already, according to the record of the one that is handling the construction of the building, from the top floor till the near half of it are the only finished floors and the bottom part of it was supposed to be, still under construction since 'the test' started during that day, but looking at it now, it looks like, someone or .... Something did this, looking at the bottom of the building, you can see general that it is really fortified, it prevents anyone from going in, I doubt that they changed the plans of the building and made it into something like.... this. Something is really going on here general."

"..Yeah, I agree, we shou- wait, is that? Huh? People, there's civilians in that area." suddenly, something caught the general's attention, in the video, a bunch of people can be seen, they are all running towards the direction of the building.
"..You are right general but, No, they are not ordinary civilians.." The man suddenly reach for his communicator and said. "Hey, zoom in the drone number 3 in the bunch of people below the building." Suddenly, the camera of the drone was zoomed in on the people below it.
"Look General, some of them are wearing some armor, and equipped by some weapons and items from the shop, they must be an active players, and a high level at that, since some of the items they have is above grade than the armors and items that we usually give to our soldiers, we must take them in general, there is a high chance that one or two of them are a 'blessed one'.."
".. Yeah you are right, immediately dispatch some team to rescue them and- wait, what are they doing?"
"Huh.?"
Suddenly, the people in the video arrived at the front of the gate of the building, suddenly they all started step back and a certain man step forward and place his palm in front of the steel gate then-.."
*Bwuuiing*
"Woah, Impressive.."
"That Guy."
Suddenly, the guy released some shockwave that comes out from his hand on the gate and it was blown away violently, he continues to do it on all the gates they see until they were completely inside the perimeters of the building, a certain girl suddenly raises his arm and a wall of rock immerged from the bottom, replacing the metal gates that they just blown away.
"..I can't believe it, they have such a strong skills."
".. Yeah, the boy have an offensive skill and the girl have maybe both offensive and defensive since, she might have a skill that allows here to control the ground or something like that, this both have a high class skills, we must bring them here, those two have a potential to be one of our aces in the future, we also don't know if there is also someone else that has the same or even more higher class skill among them, we must really bring them on our side at all cost, prepare a team to go there and try to negotiate with them as fast as possible."
"Yes general .... Looks like they already enter the building."
"..Make sure to monitor it, have the drones standby around the area, just in case they leave there."
"..Yes major, I will do it immediat-"
*Pukshh!*
*Click!*
*Piissshhh*
Suddenly, the footage of one of the drones was cut and was now all black.
*Pukshh!*
*Click!*
*Piissshhh*
The footage of the other drones was also suddenly getting cut, one by one until the whole screen turned black.
The man Immediately reach his communicator to know what is happening.
" Hey what is happening?....What!?... Destroyed!?... How did that happened!? .... "
"..What is it?.." asked by the general.
"They said that the drones was suddenly cut and go missing, the signal of it was suddenly deactivated and vanished, they said that, that Only happens when the drone was suddenly attack and destroyed, I will excuse myself already general and look out for this problem, I will immediately carry out your orders and take care of this problem, I will report it to you again general if I discover something from it."
"Alright, good luck on your work major, and make sure to know what is exactly going on."
".. as you wish general, now if you excuse me."
"Yes, go on."
The man Immediately stands up and perform a salute before leaving the room.
"Hmm, I wonder what happened there, could it be that it was attacked by a monster or... Someone."
.....
Meanwhile, at the top of Ray's building, Ray can be seen while sitting at the bunch of destroyed drones.
"Hmm, Military Drones Huh? looks like I've got the attentions of the military now hmm, well, looks like I need to change my plans a little bit huh. *Sigh* oh well, that's for the laters I guess, for now, let us welcome my little guest shall we." Ray said while forming a little smile on his face.

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)

RPG aspects start at the end of chapter 12. Currently on break for a while, I'll continue with this, just not right now. I'm unsure when I will continue writing this.
