Once the Carnivorous Plant had beco an Ember Vine, it took on red appearance and seed completely resistant to heat. The vine started to move down the corridor, filling up our hallway of traps. Since it wasn’t an enemy, it didn’t ignore the cold or ice traps, so it only had to avoid the ice pit we had created. It was as if the Ember Vine was being drawn to the heat of the dungeon above. I was worried it was going to enter the other dungeon, but its growth seed to stop just as it reached the entrance.
A squirrel fell down the hole, but it didn’t even reach the ground before a vine snapped out and grabbed it. It screeched and fought, but it couldn’t cause any fire damage, and even as it shredded the vine, more grabbed it. It only struggled for a few monts before it was consud. As the group of us watched the Ember Vine, we couldn’t help but gulp.
I hadn’t expected it to evolve. It seed like the diet I had given it had shaped its direction of evolution too. If I had to fight the Ember Vine instead of the carnivorous plant, I was pretty sure I would have been dead.
A sli dropped in, but it didn’t even make it to the first trap before it was torn apart. Each monster was imdiately consud, and that mana was pumped into my dungeon. Well, technically, it was pumped into the Ember Vine, but the Ember Vine was spreading its roots through the dungeon, and was giving off energy. I could feel the labyrinth growing stronger with each passing second.
Once I was sure the perpetual harvesting machine I built was working well, I left that part of the dungeon and started so other tasks.
I used Terra’s help to relocate the flow of a spring bringing it right through the center of the dungeon. This spring was none other than a primordial waters of life spring. It was no feeding our dungeon directly. I also took the Cyclops with and then went and subjugated two more bosses. Whether it was getting easier or we had picked the harder bosses to start with, these two were captured rather. easily.
One of them was a three headed bear with a high physical output, and the other was a Blood Spirit, which was just a red-colored spirt that seed to concentrate on spiritual attacks. I placed them down in strategic positions as well, and then made sure the mana from their territories was feeding into our dungeon.
When I had only one day left, that’s when I began to create mobs. Mobs could theoretically be made instantaneously, but these guys were a bit special. I was outfitting them with the armor and weapons being constructed by the deep dwarves. To save on silvthril material, Gabbro ca up with a silvthril edged sword. Since it was just the edge, it’d still damage dungeon monsters considerably, but could be handled safely by dungeon monsters and used only a small fraction of silvthril compared to a sword made out of it entirely.
My army consisted of skeleton creatures. That just happened to be the lore I had the most confidence in. I supposed I could have made ghosts to face ghosts, but sothing told it was better to stick to the undead. After all, in the Twilight Dungeon, it was the undead who were battling the demons. Each skeleton was outfitted with dwarven steel armor and a silvthril tipped sword. It was such a finally produced army, it made slightly tearful that they’d be wasted on such a task.
The final day ca. Twilight would have finished with King Diorite, and she’d be on her way any mont. Just as I considered that, there was a boom.
