Chapter 70 - Dungeon of a Devil 1

Beware written depiction of Insect like creatures in some gory actions please read at own risk

John and the others went back inside of the dungeon, and Claire and John knew that they would talk about everything that was between them on another day, as everyone was just happy that everything worked out with the Gods.

So everyone was back inside but Erika and Olaf said goodbye as the were exhausted by all the things that happened around John, so only Claire and John were left.

Both felt embarrassed after their friends left and a long silent time followed so John quickly went to his Workshop while Claire sat down in the Corner to watch him.

First John didnt knew what he should craft but then he noticed that he now had up to 6 Floors in his dungeon after his transformation so he needed to populate two more floors.

John started Experimenting and made a small frame out of Hollowed Junkling metal pieces and hollowed Gears which he made with slush casting. He first made them completly solid and build a mould around them, then John poured some Metal into the mould and turned it around with his hands so that a thin film of molten Metal covered the whole surface while it solidified creating a perfect hollow replica of the first piece he created. After the frame was finished he started working on some tiny sharp pieces out of silver with a thin hole in them which he added to the Mouth of his creation as fangs. John also created a tiny version of of some bellows out of fabric that he covered in a Rubber like substance to make them waterproof, he added some pipes and a small tank and added them to the creation.

John then took some of the leftover "Fire Grass" and put them into the small Tank. To finish his first Dungeon Monster he took some more tighly woven fabric that he made out of mythril fibers and added it to the Wings of his creations, and with that he was finished.

Fire-Breathing Vampire Bot

Rank Rare

Race Artificial Beast

A Mechanical Bat made out of Junkling metal that shatters into Shrapnell on hit.

Wings out of Metal fabric and hollow bones give it the ability to Fly.

This Bat like Creature fight by biting its Prey with razorsharp fangs and sucking Blood into an Internal tank which turns the collected Blood into Liquid fire which the Bot spews onto its enemys.

John was satisfied and let the Smithings Bots create some more and started working on another Monster.

Once again he created a small Frame out of Metal pieces made by slush casting and added thin Wings out of Stiffened metal Fabric to it so that it reminded him of a Moth, John then added a hollow Adamantite Stinger he submerged into the Metal softening Potion so that Magic could change the form of the stinger. John then started working on a small metal larvae that was able to transform itself into a small ball and eating through flesh. He added the larvaes to the Moth like bot and finished his second creation.

Parasitic Moth-Bot

Rank Rare

Race Artificial Beast

A moth-like automata with a stinger, which it uses to plant small flesh eating Larvaes into his Prey.

Its lightweight built and the Fabric Wings enable it to fly. Because it was Inspired by moths it is Attracted to light.

Parasitic Moth-Bot Larvae

Rank Trash

Race Artificial Beast

A small metal Automata in the form of a Larvae out of Junkling metal. as soon as it is planted into a living creature it starts eating it from the inside which causes bleeding and fear.

Now John only needed a Boss for the fifth floor but he thought that the Moth-bots were really evil and he didn´t want to overdo it so he just made a bigger moth like creation that couldn´t fly because of an big Eggsack on his belly in which he put some small Smithing bots that used Blood and Meat with Fire Grass to heat metal, and made them create Moth-Bots out of Larvaes that brought them Fuel for their work. He also added some sharp mandibles to it to eat ores of the Ground to get the materials for crafting.

Parasitic Queen Moth-Bot

Rank Epic

Race Artificial Beast

The Queen of all Moth-bots uses Larvaes that ate some prey to create new moth-bots with new larvaes. Only the thought of that this Monster could exist causes sleepless nights.

Due to its weight it can´t fly as long as it still has its egg sack. Because it was Inspired by moths it is Attracted to light.

When John looked at his creations he scratched the back of his head and nearly wanted to scrap everything as he thought that it was to evil for the first time. But he just thought about all the work he put in and how he had to fight the rabbit king he didn´t want to fight so he just left the monsters how they were. How transformed the fifth floor into a cave system type of dungeon and wanted to look at the Plague at the beginning of the Floor that gave the Players hints about what was to come.

But John was surprised because the whole plaque was pixelated and you couldn´t make out a thing.

First John thought it was a Bug until he remembered that there was a Censorship feature in the options menu. He wanted to turn it off but stopped just before he pressed Ok and decided that some things better stayed unknown.

John tried to distract him from the plaque by going into the dungeon settings and changed the light value inside of the fifth floor to complete darkness. John thought that it was more natural for a cave system. to help the players he quickly created some Lanterns out of steel that were filled with Fire Grass and a Tank. You could fill these with any Biological liquid as fuel so the players could use the blood tanks from the bat-Bots to fill it or use their own blood.

John placed these lanterns at the start of the Floor and added a small description to them...
