Chapter 3: Evolutions

  Chapter 3:

  My face change into that of a surprised one and Lucy asked me "What happened?"

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Snapping out of my daze, I look towards the larva area and see a massive caterpillar, " The Larva evolved into a Carnivorous Caterpillar and I gained a new trap, ceiling drop."

  She looks over to where I was looking and see's the caterpillar. Various expressions appeared on her face, it went from shock to happiness to disgust. " Ugh, a caterpillar, disgusting. "

  " Well you have to get used to this since there will many of them," I state the obvious.

  She sighs and says " I know." Her face changes into one of deep thought before she tells me " Now back on topic, Apprentice and Novice are beginner levels where you don't have to open up your dungeon. But when you reach H, your body will send out a ripple letting the people in this world know that a new dungeon exists. The good thing is that, they won't know where. This ripple will also attract other creatures, so before people come, kill them and gain dungeon essence."

  I become nervous and ask " Um, how do I become a H level dungeon?"

  Nonchalantly she answered " You have to have a 100 monster to become a H level dungeon. I advise you to improve your dungeon's first floor before becoming a H level dungeon. This way, you will have more protection. Now I'm going to enter my room and change it up. Don't bother me, and don't become a H level dungeon, until I come out. You better have improved the dungeon by the time I came out." I stare at the back of her figure as she enters her room.

  I think about the whole day, and what I learned. It takes me around 10 minutes to create a room and 40 minutes to recover my magic to full. For the traps, it takes around 20 minutes to make, and for monsters around 5 minutes for 2 monsters. Evolving the larva took around 10 hours.

  Returning back to the present time, I think about different ways to implement the new additions I got. Before thinking about it, I create 25 wolves and 25 larvae. After brainstorming some ideas, I went to work. I created 4 more rooms and added in the ceiling drop trap. It has different mechanisms for each room, like a trap step, trip wire or a 2 levers, 1 for the door the other for the trap. The paths were more diverse and had many more divergent paths. This addition made the dungeon more like a labyrinth and harder to clear. Different entrances to doors where added for example grand entrances or a path in which you have to crawl into to get into the room.

  8 hours have passed since I began improving the dungeon, and 5 of the larvae evolved into something different.

  Trip Wire

  Trip wire trips the creature which runs into to it if the wire is made out of silk. If it is made out of magic silk, it cuts them and has a change of amputating them

  After getting magic silkworms, I started getting magic silk and regular silk where I kept in a treasury I made. This left with me with a total of 9 rooms. I added the trip wire in and made it difficult to reach my treasury. I put my core room farthest away with a room in front of it. The room had 15 wolves and many traps as well as the paths have many forks after clearing the room.

  My renovating of the dungeon took another hour and 5 larva evolved.

  This evolution both creeped and scared me out. Thinking about centipedes crawling inside your body gave me shivers, and also made me happy since they can't attack me. To add these bugs into the dungeon, I created tiny holes on the ground where they can crawl out of. Another hour passed, 10 of my larvae evolved into Carnivorous Caterpillars and also Lucy came out.

  When I told her the changes she was happy, but when it came to the parasites, she screamed and ran into her room shutting it close. I sighed and started to improve the dungeon.

  This is getting repetitive but after another 2 hours, another 5 larvae evolved into something stronger than the wolves.

  Clicking yes, a blinding flash appears and another notification appears.

  Notifying the Lucy about the evolutions, she was surprised and happy. Afterwards we started working on the dungeon before I upgrade to H level.

  To be continued.
