《War of the gods [Forum game]》Chapter 21. Fist of Inquisition!
Advertisement
Six cloaked figures stood on the hill where grew a large tree. Three golden words “Greatness”, “Handsomeness”, “Smartness” were embroidered on their green cloaks that were made from the finest fabric. Each person wore powerful amulets and expensive rings. They were members of the famous team “Yuri-Alfa”. A fist of Inquisition!
Some time ago they were given a new mission. Find and punish a thief who had stolen the artifact from the Divine Temple.
On the dirty road the team came across with the tired monks who chased that thief from the temple to no avail. They spoke and the inquisitors learned new information about their target. The thief was a young man.
“Who looks innocent but he is not,” described him one of the monks.
Our target is a cunning person with an acting talent, the inquisitors concluded.
They ordered the monks to go back in the temple. Alba, a team's bloodhound, found their target's scent. That's how the team “Yuri-Alfa” found this hill.
“What's wrong, Alba?” the captain – a middle aged man – asked.
The woman uncloaked her head. It was a female demihuman. A beautiful dog girl.
“Woof! It seems not only we are looking for the thief, woof! I can smell a scent of the strong follower of the greatest blasphemer here, woof!”
“That's interesting. We need to inform His Handsomeness and His Smartness.”
“Woof! I'm agree, woof!”
“Where did go our target?”
“In the jungle, woof! But I have found a new scent, woof! It's stronger, woof! It's fresher, woof! This scent leads to the city, woof! Additionally, I have found a scent of one of the dryads, woof!”
“Dryads? That's also interesting. Okay, we have to find and punish out target first. The thief is our primal goal.”

The captain gave a hand signal and the team ran toward the city. Soon they reached their destination.
“The thief had passed through the gate!” Alba said. “The target is in the city.”
“Good! We will give an order to the city guards to close all gates! He will not leave this city!”
~~~~~~
Meanwhile, in the city
A mob moved to the bazaar, killing demihumans and looting shops on the way. Patrols of guards hurried to leave the streets. No one organized the city guards or gave any orders to them. Hence, no one could stop this mob now.
“Kill filthy mutants!”
“Kill the believers of the greatest blasphemer!”
“Kill filthy mutants!”
“Kill the believers of the greatest blasphemer!”
“Kill filthy mutants!”
“Kill the believers of the greatest blasphemer!”
“Kill filthy mutants!”
“Kill the believers of the greatest blasphemer!”
Only an experienced person could see that someone orchestrated this mob. Some people shouted slogans, another supported them, and a mob – as a good puppy – moved where its master wished.
~~~~~~
Meanwhile, somewhere in the jungle
The former captain of “Holy Sword” stood in front of the cat girl and her three warriors.
“Long time no see, Niao,” he raised his sword, standing in the defense pisition.
“Meow, indeed old enemy, meow! Long time, meow!” she gave a hand signal and the armed pig-men dashed forward.
The former captain of “Holy Sword” parried their attacks easily and injured one of them.
The wounded pig-man grunted angrily and hid behind his comrades backs.
In the next moment a magical flame arrow propelled towards the old man. The monk ducked and stood in a defense position.
“Meow, you are old but still a good warrior, meow!” Niao commented.

“You are older than me, witch,” the monk laughed. “Tell me how many people you have sacrificed to your evil deity to get so many years of life?!”
“Meow, lots, old enemy! You could do the same, meow! You could live centuries, meow! You could be Murnir, meow! But enough speaking, old enemy, meow!”
“I would never sacrifice human lives to the greatest blasphemer! But you are right! Enough speaking!”
The pig-men attacked again.
~~~~~~
The great spirits watch this battle with interest. Later they started to whisper whose side must be a winner.
[A follower of Great, Handsome, and Smart natus_vincat!]
[The followers of evil deity Vahrun!]

The General Core {The Sphere}
The life cycle in the Sphere is on the brink of collapse because one of its elements, the Dungeons, have been exploited too much by the mortals. The group who created the Sphere already tried and failed with several modifications, because the original computer-like dungeon cores are too inflexible to handle changing approaches. So they try another type of solution – taking souls from other worlds to try to find a solution before the Sphere Cycle breaks down completely. The General was one of the best soldiers of his world, rising from the ranks of a private through Officer School to the highest command with honors. But when his world faced a zombie apocalypse, even that was not enough and he had to make the ultimate sacrifice. Now he is asked for a repeat performance of planning and controlling a dungeon and its spawns in a world that he knows nothing about… But what is the Sphere really? What is that [Xenotic conversion] he has to go through to even enter the Sphere? Something is really strange and he will have to find out what is going on to get to his promised rewards – whatever they will be. Being a soul in a dungeon core means that the General has better chances of finding hints to the truth about the sphere – a knowledge that would help him survive. And no, the sphere is NOT a virtual reality – the key to its secrets is the place where it was physically constructed (Author’s hint). This is a dungeon core story - but there are quite a number of things that I will do differently than common to those stories. 1) I will describe the floors when they are explored, NOT when they are build. Yes, that will mean it will take longer to get to those parts - but I think describing floors both when they are build and when they are explored destroys quite a lot of chances for suspense when adventurers enter the dungeon. After all, if you as the reader already know where the traps are, then you can't really be surprised when the surfacers encounter them. 2) How the world works (and how not) is an integral part of the story, so it will be explained I'm a world-builder first and the Sphere is NOT a regular world (as hinted in the synopsis above). Things will work differently than in your 08/15 default dungeon core stories - as the General and Gunny have already learned in the second arc (and more of that is already scheduled for the next weeks (July/Aug 2019) when the Sky Arrows continue to explore and evaluate that strange dungeon) If you don't like these premises, then I'm sure you'll find a lot of other Dungeon Core stories more to your liking. But if you are interested in more than "Dungeon builds another room and corridor in medieval earth" and are not afraid of a longer and slower story, then go on. I have two more stories in the Sphere, although they both have lower priority than this one: Shaleen the Wanderer (Adventurer, NSFW) (currently on hold after some chapters) Info's on the Sphere (System Docu and Short Stories) (irregular updates when needed) Current Status reports have been moved to a new discord server: https://discord.gg/EaHkXCfm9y
