I’m in a bad situation. A scout will come to my dungeon to explore. If my dungeon is fine nothing will happen. But I’m afraid of thieves. They will try to get my dungeon core and sell for money. Human is greedy so I won’t know what will happen. I have to prepare carefully to face the worst situation which would happen.

I use my skill ‘Parkour’ and my ability ‘Wooden parts’ to dodge creatures. I need to head home soon. The last time I need about 1 day and a half to reach the city, and now I just need 3/4 day to get back to my dungeon.

The dungeon is close. I deactivate all my skill and walk-in. I immediately use ‘teleport’ – A skill provided by Dungeon helps me to go anywhere in my dungeon – to get back in my chamber. Everything is still the same, especially SPIDER!

I try to ignore it and focus on what to do next. First I will check DP, monster and my new ability.

*Welcome back my Dungeon Lord. Showing results when you were away.*

When you were away:

- + 5.6 DPS

“Uhm, that’s it?” I shocked at what I get. Well, this adventure doesn’t give me much useful information. If not because a scout will explore my cave, I won’t come back to my dungeon.

“System, how many DPS we are having now?”

*Sir, DPS are 250.82*

I open the ‘Expansion’ tab

The System gives me the map of my dungeon and I will expand my dungeon from here.

On the way to my boss's room, I build in a total of 3 more rooms.

In the first room, I put 5 core slimes and 3 goblins

In the second room, I put 10 core slimes and 5 goblins

In the third room, I put 10 core slimes, 10 goblins, and 10 kobolds.

In total, I have spent 900 DPS on all these. (I have recently transferred my mana into DPS)

Normally, when my monster dies, the mana will be back to my dungeon core. But because of the short radius of the core’s absorption, I can get the mana back. But I can get back by doing this.

I infuse my element inside my hand and cover my dungeon with roots. It costs me a lot of mana and elemental power but it quite deserves. The roots will absorb mana in the air and transfer back to me or directly transfer into DPS.

Right now I’m absorbing mana to regain my MP. But the Elemental power is really hard. If to use the number to describe how hard it is then: 100 MP = 1 EP.

Although it is really hard to get Wood Element I don’t say I can’t get this. With a high density of mana in my dungeon, I can easily get EPS.

So I sit down and start to regain my MP and EP. When I get enough I will start to create my first servant – I mean guardian.

3 hours ago

A group of people is sitting in the Guild master’s room. They look quite normal but no one knows how powerful they are.

“Taft, Can you let me know why we are gathered here?” The girl wearing a white coat nags.

“Nancy, I don’t know what is going on? But Guild master said this was an important question and our job is to finish it.” Taft says with a serious tone.

“Ok… Ok…, you are always right.” Nancy shuts her mouth off and looks out of the windows. Her eyes are quite sad and hopeful.

Suddenly a voice comes out:

“Leader, could I go back to my church when this mission is over? There are some problems in my church so I gotta go.” Priestess says while holding her hands.

“Sure, Vivian!” Taft says with a warm smile.

“Ugh, I told you that you can call me Viva instead,” The priestess says and holds her cheeks with her hands. I think she is a bit embarrassed. She is too meek so that she may be tricked.

“Oh, I’m sorry. By the way, Wolfe, you said that you got some trouble with your village right? Do you need to get back and solve it?” Taft notices about the problem of his friend.

“Ah, it’s ok. It’s not that trouble. I don’t have to get back to do whatever you want.” Wolfe seems to feel a bit annoyed. Well, he loves to live in the forest so the city isn’t a suitable place for a wild man like him. And his gaze gives me anxiety; I still don’t know why but my heart told me that he has killed a lot when he came here, but everything is fine since he joined us.

“Ok. I get it.” Taft still smiles. Well, with a friendly guy like him, it won’t be too hard to know what he is like.

“Ahem, it’s very impolite of me to interrupt everyone but because of the importance of this mission, I have to do it.” The Guild master walks in, gives a sharp gaze at everyone. He continues:

“Ok, so everyone is all pay your attention now. I will say it as quickly as possible. This mission is exploring a dungeon.” Guild master says with a serious tone.

“What? A new dungeon appeared? It will be the fourth dungeon in our Kingdom.” Nancy says with surprise and excitement.

“Yes. That’s why I’m going to send your group to explore what is going on in that dungeon. Because of this highly important information, you have to act carefully for our Kingdom. That’s it now head for that dungeon. Good luck to the ‘dragon fighting’ A-rank group.” Guild master finishes his sentence and turns around.

His eyes gaze at the huge structure flying on the sky, giving him a feeling to explore it and discover the truth of the flying structure. He also believes that the structure is the key to the truth of the world but who knows.

“Ok, everyone, let’s head toward that dungeon and give humanity a brand discovery,” Taft says with excitement. At least, having a good spirit is also good too, that’s what I thought.

The group leaves the Guild and head for the dungeon. They walk through the forest, face a lot of dangerous animals but with them, they are all rats; because they are A-rank members. The low-tier monster can’t harm them.

After moving for such a long time, they have finally reached John’s dungeon.

“I can feel a high density of the mana. This is probably a dungeon” Viva says to the group.

“Ok, check out everything and make sure they are all fine. Then, we will explore this dungeon.” Taft commands his members carefully before doing the mission. With him, the life of his members is the most important. That’s why he always asks his members to check everything before going on the next move.

After making sure everything is fine, Taft’s group makes their first move in the dungeon; begin a tough battle that would never end. [don’t mind me I’m just making it up]

1 hour before the group comes.

I have fully recovered my EP. I have never had a feeling like this: So great and even more powerful than before.

Thanks to the mana, I can level my basic element to 47%. It is pretty slow but still good.

I start to use my new ability to ‘summon a wood element (low)’. Well, I can guess that this creature would look like a Trent – A monster looks like a tree.

First of all, I use a medium magic crystal for its heart. Next, I infuse a large elemental Wood inside it with my magic to dedicate who is its master. After that, I create its arm, leg, head and its body. I also put small magic crystals at 2 arms, 2 legs, and its head. With that my monster can absorb mana from surroundings and store even more magic.

I start to pump mana in this body. The mana fills all of the corners of body parts. When It reaches 500 MP, the body starts to glow brightly – the light blue light gives us a peaceful place. But I know this body can hold more mana. I start to pump even more mana in. This time the 5 crystals on 2 arms, 2 legs, head, and the medium one in this body’s heart start glowing.

The more I pump mana in, the brighter the crystals are, and the more powerful my servant is.

After reaching 1000 MP, my mana start to see its limitation and the magic crystals can’t hold longer. I finish this processing and see the result. The mana in the body glows even brighter and the arm starts to move. I use my eternal eye and see that MP and EP are mixing up together. The form of my servant has come. It’s taller than me. It has razor claws, teeth. His head has two long hair [seriously don’t know what it is called] looks like a transmitter device.

He kneels on one knee and bow to me:

“My master, I shall give you my highest respect and loyalty. I wish my body would become a part of your mighty ambition.”

“Ok, what is your name?” I ask my servant.

“My master, the monster we don’t have a name. Name is a protocol way to strengthen us and also order my soul to our owner. Giving a name costs our owner a lot of mana that’s why my master please choose wisely.” My servant even bows deeper.

I use my eternal eye to check his stat and I have a shock:

“So powerful!” I unconsciously exclaim.

With all my elemental power, 6 crystals and all of my mana, I have created a nightmare monster – A walking nightmare. I can make my servant more powerful by naming him or choose him to become the ‘Guardian’ of my chamber.

Boss is a monster protecting the gate of every floor. Boss will be buffed with 3× more health, mana and variable stat. It can also become stronger over battle only if its soul isn’t destroyed. When it’s dead, I will have to gather its soul back and use more mana to resurrect it – About 2× more mana than usual.

Guardian is a higher-grade monster protecting the dungeon core. Guardian will be buffed with 5.5× more health, mana and variable stat. It can become stronger over battle like a boss and it isn’t limited in my dungeon. It can go out and do some stuff for me. But there is also a limit is that I can’t choose more than 3 guardians. Because when I choose a monster to become guardian, its soul will be bound to the dungeon core which means it’s very difficult to be resurrected again.

Because of the limit, I think I will use for my most powerful monster: maybe dragons or demons, I don’t know. But I think I will name this servant later because it will need 5000 MP to name him. I need to get stronger now. Oh, and here is my stat:

Name: John Mullard

Well, my stats have some changes: all my variable stats increase 6 points; I can see the level of my Skill. Suddenly, my System notices me about the new guests – uninvited guests.

Let’s the battle begin!

I ordered my servant to stay here and watch a show; a special given to all my guests.

*Outside John’s dungeon*

The ‘Dragon Fighting’ group starts to get in the dungeon. The concentration of the mana seems to be higher than outside. Viva notices the changes in the mana and the roots. She feels that these things are somehow getting their mana. She immediately shouts and informs everyone about this:

“Leader, these roots are absorbing our mana. We must hurry now.”

“Understood!” Taft responds to his member and focuses on the roots; he feels a bit strange with these. He walks slowly when he reaches the first room. He tells everyone to stop and makes sure that no traps in this room. He signs every one to get in the formation because there would be a battle.

3 core slimes jump at them. Taft uses his shield and easily knocks out all the slimes.

He thought it would be slimes – The one with the immunity of physical damage, but soon realize that these are core slimes - a very weak creature in the rear of the forest. After finishing all 3 slimes, he notices about the 2 goblins and 2 slimes left.

He commands all his members to not let their guard down and easily kill all the monsters.

The second and the third room seem to not do a great threat because only one of their teams fights with the group of the goblins. Taft feels very good when this dungeon is a new-born one but also reminds everyone not to let their guard down.

They reach the boss with ease.

*In John’s chamber*

The first thing I want to say is that their power: they are incredibly powerful. All their stat is over 150 points. Their skills are not pretty good: The most powerful one is rarity ‘Ex Uncommon’. So I conclude that they are not a big threat. Their stats are marvelous but I got EP. And I am also absorbing their mana for the experience.

The System in the dungeon is hard to explain. The dungeon uses adventure’s mana for experience and DPS. But nothing is hard to explain. I will try to figure out the way to use this mana as mine.

After seeing 3 battles, they are not pretty good as I would expect, but soon give me the most useful information. They have experiences in dealing with the monsters: their fighting style, their formation, and the power of the member give me all the need for a fight. The only thing I don’t know is that their will. Will they sacrifice themselves for their group?

Anyway, I should prepare to see the group. It will be the first time I reveal myself as ‘Black lotus’. I take my black mask and get in with Trent [i will call him 'Trent'] the boss room; hope for a good battle.
