Ch.6 The landlord is angry.
After only a few hours, I came up with my next Labyrinth room. Keeping with the water pressure theme I got going for myself I made a complex puzzle room using water as keys for a assortment of doors. The room consists in eight rooms six of which are small while the last too are large. Upon entering the room too urns would be presented to the invaders, this tool would be use to store a maximum of thirty gallons of water, the urns itself is mounted in a contraption that allows those with weak physical strength to roll them along the floor like a wheelchair. The lid and lip of the urns are in the shape of a birds beak, a large hole in the middle allows for easier refilling when needed. The hole itself has a matching pole underneath the lid, the opening will be shut closed if someone tries to fill the urb overcapacity, to achieve this, a Polished wooden cube that is hallowed inside connects to a string, reaching thirty gallons will trigger the lever, this will force the lip to snap shut, plugging the entrance closing all openings with the exception of the slightly smaller lower lip of the urn, allowing for the water to still be poured. The contraption allows the urb to tild to deposit whatever amount of water is required, the wooden cube can be seen thru the glass serpent that decorates the urb from top to bottom serving as a Measuring tool numbered from zero to thirty. After the invader gets accustomed to the urb, they are presented too doors one right one left. The rooms have a fountain inside with a number around them, left room has thirty four while the right as ten, the corresponding gallons of water inside. To the side of both rooms, the left and right door have a scale design, mounted to the scales weight are too urns that can't be moved one shut closed filled to twenty the other empty and completely open on both rooms, what needs to be done should be self explanatory. The door itself however doesn't open when the right amount is applied it will instead open the other rooms door forcing too people to work together, to make it easier to understand each room has a colored diamond left red, while right blue, the rooms themselves are made of different color materials left is made from blue lapis and the right red clay. After the too man team gathered twenty each and open the door a large hallway is presented to them, The left has a large Fountain with zero on it, while the one to the right as a small fountain with a five on it, looking inside the rooms shows too doors each the left has one showing nineteen and twenty-six while the right one has twenty-five and twenty-six. The door with nineteen when open offers a fountain with ten gallons while opening the door with twenty-five presents the invader with a large fountain with 30 gallons. The door with twenty-six on both sides has both of the weight urns empty with one open on each side, a red diamond is shown on top the left while a blue one is on the right, this should make it easy to understand what is needed to be done, find a way to make both the same amount. One last tool is presented to the invaders on the very back of the large rooms, a large scale arm, with the other side going thru the other rooms wall, carries a smaller urn half the size of the ones they been using, a diamond split in half with both colors presented so far is shown, this Illustration should hint that anything place inside this urn will be split in half and only half then carried to both rooms an odd number will not work. With all the pieces of the puzzle in place the invader must find the correct combinations getting both out or non at all.

*Done! Turn in mission, accept rewards!*
I quickly yelled all the keywords the system needs to do it's thing, while waiting for it's response i take a look around only to find a literal mountain of muscle 20-30 feet from me, many small and large red eyes could be seen between the legs of the giant, they stare at me with such hunger i felt like a pure maiden in a bar full of drunk men. Before I could panic the system responded.
[Host mental strength is being restored. Mission completed. Calculating....Calculation complete. Host approval received. Beginning Synchronisation adjustments]
While the system did it's thing, I took a look at my mission and was happily surprised.
[Mission: Increased Host Synchronisation rate 2.
Description : Host Synchronisation rate is too low for System to fully fuse. While inside the host Mind Scape please create a Dungeon labyrinth, the system will recover the mental strength of the host for this mission only, the more complex the host creations the more mental strength it will need, the host goal is to use at least 100% total of his current mental strength.
Mission progress: 150/100
Reward: Synchronisation rate + 1- 10%
Mission failure: The host will have and incomplete fusion, preventing the system from protecting the host mind from the (721,974) undigested will fragments the host body is currently made out of.]
I was happy to see I would get another 14% Synchronisation rate, most likely pushing Muscles here oway from me at last. However sense i went over 100% it can only mean I started a connection instinctualy, looking at the distance a sea of red eyes was crawling all over my protective film and each other, the hole left by mister Muscles already closed. I again felt something trying to invade my body it, however, quickly pass.
[Synchronisation adjustments complete. Do to Host exceeding requirements greatly, additional rewards have been send. Host Total Fusion with System is now increased from 74% to 94%.]
At that moment my body glowed in blinding light, a thick film of rainbow energy spread thru my surrounding extremely slowly. Looking at the barrier spreading from me I noticed the "ground" of this plane I was levitating on slowly turning green and beautiful. Trees, rivers, fields of different color roses and fluffy clouds and blue skies were showing up slowly, this beautiful scenery reminded me of my love for nature since I was little. A connection to this slowly growing world forming telling me this place is my world , home and property I then remember something the System said to me in the mission briefing.
[While inside the host MindScape please create a Dungeon labyrinth]
Mind scape? That means this place is inside my mind it's how I see the world or what I want to see, and this bunch of lingering wills have stained it with blood, killing intend, fear and a bunch of emotions someone who has lived in the modern world can't understand clearly. I fume in rage seeing how my world used to look like being turned into a wasteland of death.

*System! I have done the mission you asked me to do! Now I want something from you, I want each one of these parasites off my mind this instant!*
[Host Synchronisation rate is not 100%. Forceful removal of the lingering egos would prevent further Synchronisation for a long time. Some of the wills might escape this cleansing]
*I don't care! I want it out now!*
I was emotionally unstable, wanting this filth off me at all cost. Trying to get myself back in control, as only one more mission would take me to 100% I felt memories I didn't know I had come to me.
[?] Pain.... so much pain.... (sob)..(sob) it hurts....[?]
A childlike voice was hurt full of sorrow. Soon a familiar voice was heard.
~Sweetie be strong you can do this don't lose your self.~
It's miss Q'ill, this must have been before my memories were send to this world.
[?] Is that voice again... it sounds so warm.... Ghaaahaaa..aa.aa!! These lowlife beastmen how dare they not return God's land to us, there's? Ha! How will savages know the lord's working, if the pope says it's our so it shall be!...gha.... Haaaaaa... it hurts please stop... (sob)... (sob). [?]
The child voice becomes fanatical and crazy, talking about gods and a pope, I have a feeling this is a church believer or a crusader.
~ I don't understand, why is this happening to this poor child, he is only a double Elemental Core according to the scanners prediction. But this child, is even absorbing the other too elements even the small shards from the Beastmen King's unknown Element sword are being absorbed, at this rate this child will break under so many different wills not to mention the Beast King's ~
Beast King? oh! is it Muscles? that seems likely. I guess Prismatic Dungeon Cores birth are not understood yet sense miss Q'ill could not identify me till I came out from the geode.
[?] Miss nice is sad to.... I.. I.. I want to Comfort her like she does to me... but.. but is so painful when I try to reach out to her I can never let her know am fine, each time I try my mental strength gets grinded by all the scary shadows outside. The pain is unbelievable and miss nice gets more sad when I cry, my hand have started to turn black like the scary shadows outside, I don't want this, it feels cold and painful not like miss nice warmth voice, I want it OUT!!![?]
While the child was crying a monotone voice started to sound in the back of my head.
[Prismatic Elemental Core, Found, Scanning Completed..... Compatibility 13% below the safety range cannot commence Download.]
What? the System was trying to connect to this core even then?
[?] Miss nice? n-no your not her hu are you? [?]
[Greetings, Host candidate, I am AI code name: Où collector.]
[?] Où? I..I know that name from.. someone? who? why to i know it?? Ghaaaaa..ahha..a!!! These humans have grown fast, they even dare to challenge me, proclaiming my lands as there's, the way they come and die is unsettling do they not value there life? Ahhh... Ghaaaaa... ha. ha (sob)... (sob).... please stop it hurts. [?]
Miss nice... Q'ill... It would seem she really is a nice person to her core. What Muscles said is a bit unsettling all those deaths probably made this core.
[Host candidate will is being attacked. Beginning emergency Synchronisation.... Failed. Host compatibility below safety range]
[?]Ghaaaa...... ha...ah.. it hurts!! These despicable rat's, my lands were not there goal they only come to rob me of Iron Tooth, they sacrifice so many of there people just to draw me out, are they all demons.[?]
[?] It HURTS!! AHHHHHHHH [?]
Dam, Dam them all your already death and your ghost are still causing so much pain to a kid and all for what a Shiny sword? bastard all of them.
[Warning!! The host candidate's psyche is being devoured. 70% remaining. Please take preemptive measures]
[?] Make it stop p-please i-it h-HURTS! MISS NICE SAVE ME!![?]
~ Nooo... this child won't last much longer at this rate he will die, I have no choice I have to use the Dungeon Fairys Forbidden magic and bind myself to his Dungeon Realm feeding the child my life energy and Mana saving him. This child's prediction was definitely tampered with I don't know what bastard send me here to die and blame it on this poor child but I won't let it go your way.~
[?] I-Is.... so-oo c-cold... it hurts [?]
[Unknown energy source detected. Judged to be useful to the host candidate. Energy identified as life energy. Psyche remaining 35%, insufficient energy for restoration. Final Safety Protocol conditions met Host candidate below 40% stability, Life energy source detected beginning Protocol.]
This.... just what did Miss Q'ill and the System do.
