Chapter 2: Reinforcement

Chapter 2: Reinforcement

Waking up and seeing my ‘body’ sat in a makeshift podium. A roaring fire near the center of the tunnel, looking at the entrances it was covered by some ‘wood’. I say wood its actually just a big piece of some mushroom. The ratkin archer and shield watched the entrances while Ward watched over me, the other two is sleeping. The base is coming along very well, some house being built.

The house is still under construction but, having some protection is better than none. After all home is where you make it. A voice interrupts my musing “my liege you have been asleep for three days”. My squad leader Ward voice seems a little bit off” is there something wrong Ward?”. “Yes, my liege we are running low on provision we tried to preserve the lizardman meat, but we were not successful”, “let me see what I can do”.

Due to innate ability of set dungeon area ability environmental creation cannot be given.

Processing

……..

Solution found:

Innate ability simple creation has been given.

Core: attribute pending!!!

“Simple creation?” that sound like an improvised crafting thing.

Simple creation:

Able to create simple weapon, items, tools, equipment, and simple animals

That sounds like a simple conjuration spell from a videogame I used to play. Hmmm simple animals just what does that mean. Let see” simple creation sheep”.

A bright light appeared again but this time it’s more of blue hue, a wooly appeared that something good right being able to provide food, hide and wool. Hmm the mana cost is….. one its one mana to summon an entire sheep? but ratkin cost ten and a wolf cost more than one too.

Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

“My liege what is this strange creature you created?”. Wait does sheep not exist here? If then what are the cattle here? My musing was ended by shrill from the summoned sheep in a pitch-dark tunnel, I don’t blame it” kill it quickly”.

“Its food ward should last us a while?” does Ward look excited or is it just me? if my summoned need rest having more people might help with the rotation of people.” Open summon”

New summon available.

Special summon available:

Ratkins

Rolling

Rolling

Ratkin < Squad leader >

Ratkin < Healer >

Ratkin< weaver >

Ratkin < normal >

Ratkin < normal >

Another five ratkin has been summoned. I gave the other squad leader the name of Tower, the healer has a tome and staff as equipment. I gave her the name of Aala she can cast moderate heal, which I don’t know the meaning or what is it so supposed to do.

The weaver is also she ratkin and has a weaving loom with her, I named her Castel with the ratkin summoned along side the ratkin who have tittles the total ratkin came to 9 new ratkin. More ratkin means more provision needed.

“Ward and tower please organize an expedition to map the tunnels”. “By your order my liege” they replied in unison as if they are automatons. I task my weaver Castel into processing wool into armor or beds, while my healer and her apostles gather in a corner to pray.

Interestingly it would seem that I’m able to ‘borrow’ mana from my left core to my right core. Thinking in practical terms ‘borrowing’ a lot of mana might trigger the man monitoring my other core to report more anomaly to his supervisor. But that wont stop me from summoning a few more wooly.

Which in hindsight might be a little bad for me as I don’t know what will happen to me, sapient sentient me. There is also something I don’t get sure I summoned the ratkin and they are loyal but what would happen if I summoned something else. Would they be loyal too.

There is no real benefit from being summoned by a dungeon, right? what should I do first, well personal goal is to have a physical body to move around and protect myself. Hmmm, what is core attribute.

Core Attribute:

Due to dungeon core losing innate ability core, core progress is subpar from other core and ability to protect itself is almost non-existence. Especially since dungeon core does not have boundaries summoned creatures are able to move or abandoned core.

< it’s not their fault they are just simple creatures>

Core attribute the ability to set a theme with core progression, possible core attributes can be chosen by the core. For example, a dungeon can choose water attribute which will enable the dungeon core to flood an area which replaces innate ability to set an area.

The expedition composing with tower, two shield rat and two archers came back running, “Aala what is happening” I call out to my healer who looks more like a priest as time goes by. “It would seem there’s and lizardman raid my lord”. “My liege please not worry yourself well protect you with our lives” shouts Ward.

I’m left in the care of my weaver Castel and another ratkin who seems to be herding the sheep’s feeding them mushrooms. That cant be good for them, right? I should test this attribute thing then. Totally not worried about that lizardman raid or something.

“I want my attribute to be one of those AI body” wait will it understand about the advance body AI used as their avatars? Those are goanna be op in this era which is ……

Core Attribute:

AI avatars

Attribute nooooottttt….

….

AI avatars approved.

Please start the evolution phase when ready.

Is this thing broken? Well, what do I know” Start evolution!” darkness seems to take over me again now that I think about it my left core seems a little quite.

<<<<< three days earlier>>>>>

A robe novice mage running from the central tower to the town center where it seen better days. shop stalls strewn about; wooden boxes scattered around. Buildings dilapidated and needed immediate repair or reconstruction. Through desperate refugees.

The novice mage reaches the barely repaired gate stone walls that have been broken wood reinforce them, running through the injured militia and knights. Going to the tower where the archmage rest.

“archmage there is a situation in the shield core” rasped the novice mage out of breath “what we cant let that be broken or we wont survive that damn lizardman’s clan chasing us”.

“ the core asked question archmage”
