Cable glanced at the HUD; it showed the broken outlines of humanoids moving into the cavern. They had fearsome appearances from what he could piece together, and there wasn’t one without a visible scar.
“Nova, we really need a better detection system for next time. Let’s wait for now, and see what they do. I have a trump card lined up, it’s just a question of how long it takes to summon.”
“Very well Admin Cable, but please note I don’t trust them. They look like mercenaries or bandits. They are both greedy types of people, always chasing money.”
The leading humanoid strolled to the center of the cavern, and held his torch up to look around.
“Brats, we hit the jackpot! Now you know the drill, get in quick, grab the stuff and get out faster!”
“Aye Aye cap’n.” A small humanoid with a swinging tail and gleaming eyes glanced around with careful apprehension.
“Shut yer trap and get movin’! That mage isn’t shelling out coin for nothing, we have to be back before that pansy decides to start experimenting on us instead!”
“Boss, boss! Look at this one! It’s glowing brighter than the others, look, it’s flickering! Ooh, it’s shining - “ A small feathered humanoid with what looked like folded wings picked up the dungeon core and held it up.
“Featherbrain! Put that away and get the rest!” the big one snarled.
Cable looked at Nova, and nodded. “Time to stop this. Last thing I want is to end up in a magic lab.
Set target(enemy): leader humanoid.
Set target(neutral): small humanoids.

The dungeon core flared with light, revealing the startled feather-kin and cat-kin. Green, blue and golden motes of mana streamed out, rapidly solidifying into the shape of a daschaser. Quickly turning towards the leader humanoid, it started whining with increasing pitch as the laser charged. Half a second later, a golden beam of pure energy phased through the targeted kneecap. As soon as the brigand hit the floor, another beam phased through his head.

The Dungeon Calls for a Sage
Archimedes was the ego behind one of the most powerful dungeons ever created. He grew and developed his halls, filling them with powerful monsters and beasts, over the course of thousands of years. He was a grand structure of ten thousand floors which even heroes had failed to defeat. However, an Evil God had come from another world, calling himself the Demon King, and a party of heroes were sent to do battle with it. Through their victory, they obtained enough strength to breeze through Archimedes' dungeon like it was nothing. Forseeing the end of his life, and realizing how pointless his pursuit of power had been, Archimedes destroyed himself, taking the heroes down with him. Still, Archimedes felt despair that he had lived a worthless life as something as pitiful and futile as a dungeon. Sensing his regret and potential, the voice of the world presented Archimedes with the chance to start anew and live a more meaningful life. Thrilled and hopeful for the first time in eons, Archimedes accepted the offer, only to be reborn again as a dungeon core with not a single room or monster to his name. Just what was the meaning of this?! Archimedes couldn't figure out what the voice of the world was thinking. Somehow, he would have to draw a sage into his dungeon to figure it out for him. _______________________ DCS is now a member of the WriTEr's Pledge, which means I have sworn to see it through to a satisfying end.

This is the story about the second war between nephlims and humans.This is the story of how everything ends. -- (21JUN2020 story will be active for another week, I unfortunately do not have a backlog so I can't extend my chapter updates until another port call. I do not know when the next port call will be so I will be on another Hiatus for an undetermined amount of time. Scribblehub is not blocked on my work computer so I will be able to update my story on that website. It can be found here.) This story is a draft, I'll be doing my best to update monthly; work might get in the way of that so some update might be delayed an extra week or so. There will be roughly 31 chapters in total (I have the entire plot written down for the first book and the overall plot written down for the entire series.). (Summary is also a WIP and will change later to better fit the story. Any advice on how to write a summary for multiple POV's would be amazing)
