《Spiritual guardian》Chapter 13
Advertisement
Popping into the elementle dungeon Steve got a view of a full campaign being waged on his jungle goblins. A large group of elves were gathered around a clearing at the end of his little mud village. Every so often they would summon a wolf out of the ground and send it rushing off after the few remaining goblins in the level 10 zone he'd set up. It seemed that word about his dungeon has begun to spread bringing power people over. Steve was very intrigued by the earth wolves they could create but they seemed a little bit too powerful against his goblins. Just letting them sit there infinitely spawning minions to fight was a dungeons job wasn't it?
Diving into the spawning menu Steve used a large chunk of his energy spawning ten level 10 earth goblins and fifty level 1 goblins of all types to rush the group of invaders. His goal wasn't to wipe them out but to simply push them back and out of the dungeon with the hord. Acting as a tank the high level earth goblins took the limited amount of ranged attacks charging in an trying to engage the summoners. The sight of the earth armored goblins followed by the rest of the hord made the elves flee ordering the few wolves cover their retreat.
"It's good I was able to chase them off without killing anyone " Steve said observing the elves as they fled his dungeon. One of Steve's largest worries was that all his dungeon creatures getting whipped out and basically having to start from scratch. It could easily end up like when the scourge ants instantly killed spawning goblins draining energy. A sense from the knowledge stored in his head made it seem like that could cause problems or possibly dungeon collapse if things lasted long enough. He'd have to think of a way to keep his dungeon from getting overwhelmed while still letting the world's inhabitants grow with him.

Taking the idea of his fortifications in his universal mysterious dungeon Steve planned out a series of small bunkers, forts and tree houses he'd place across his level 10 plus zone. He only had the energy for a simple tree house but he had to start somewhere at that would keep Null and a few of his level 10 goblins from getting ambushed by those stone wolves. Directing his goblins gather around and patrol the area of his very first tree house Steve started set out level 5 and level 10 spawn points around his higher level zone. With a sigh Steve also set twenty percent of the dungeon energy to infuse into his level 10 zone boosting the growth of plants, animals and passively enhancing materials. Since his local core was basically empty nothing had changed but over time it should help level his goblins while making the environment charged with elemental energy. Cracking his spiritual knuckles Steve got working on refining his dungeons layout.
Zig breathed heavily limping back to their barricaded camp. It had taken him much effort and scouting but he'd gotten a glimpses of the scourge queen, a towering bulbous creature five goblins tall and twenty long. It was was tended by ants Zig hadn't seen before small as him with goblin like fingers on long arms attached to a round torso that floated off the ground. He had was lost gazing at the strange creature when he was ambushed by one of the floating creatures he had missed. Normally ants couldn't hurt him since he had reached level 30 getting a set of spirit armor but the monster must have had an upgrade similar to his spear allowing its hand to easily part through his defense and peirce his side. Shaking his head at the thought Zig entered the camp seeing Kobo gazing over towards the battle happening on the planet above.

Their camp was on the outside the the mountain going into the portal. They didn't sit on a cliff but flat rock the gravity of both plants holding them at a right angle. The two remaining strike team members watched the ant hord roll endlessly against the goblin fortifications. They discussed plans to attack the queen as soon as Zig recovered knowing that if they failed the scourge ants would never stop.
Somewhere in the void :
A wounded beast floated though endless space blood dripping out of rents in its scales. Vinte's mind was hazy her pack killed or captured and her left alone and defenseless. She was a young dragon barely level 600 not even strong enough to play without one of her parents watching over her. Fretting about what to do she felt a strange feeling wash over her and she froze. "A spacial ripple " vinte's head snapped to her left as if she could see something in the distances. "A newly formed plain?!" Hopefully and excited Vinte rushed towards her possible salvation.

Northwoods Trapper
In the wild places of our planet, dark vestiges of our paranormal past yet cling to twisted life. In the past, the hunters and trappers of the world were tasked with removing such blights from society's fringes - legal assassins, enlisted to enforce the will of civilization against those unnatural, otherworldly hosts. Nowadays, we're not so lucky. With the idea of proper monster-hunting fading from public perception, the once-prestigious mantle is donned by amateurs, hobbyists, and self-taught warriors. It pays poorly, it's dangerous, and people would rather do something that gets them rich or famous or drowning in attention. Most often, new-age monster hunters are born from tragedy. They lack the tact, training, and funding of hunters passed. Instead, they have only their wits and brawn to carry them through. So it is with our hero. In the woods of the American Midwest, foul creatures lurk. Tabitha Varna, a young college drop-out scarred by her past, is determined to uproot them or die trying.

I'm Sure It'll be Fine! ...right?
We live to die, and die to live again. This Cycle continues, neither to Begin nor End. Ever Beginning, never to End, we come to the story of our Unusual Friend. The Gods are as varied and unique as the mortals that worship them. Some are kind, others are fluffy, and (given the nature of the multiverse) a few are Eldrich Abominations of Unspeakable Horror. But that's fine, those few tend to mind their own business... At least until an Eldrich Abomination (an interdimensional cosmic slime-mold specifically) gets itself devoured by a Lich during a ritual to obtain Godhood... Especially because anyone, even a Lich, who's willing to eat an ENTIRE COSMIC SLIME-MOLD for any reason, even godhood, is undoubtedly a madman...who's now set his unsightly gaze upon replacing (likely by devouring) the Godess of Magic herself! She could probably use some help...if only to avoid touching the slimy Lichgod directly. Also, the Eldrich Gods are protesting these events in their usual manner...by trying to destroy all of Creation.
