ch.11 The underground is your oyster
In the outside world in the continent of A'om or Holy Nation of Heavens Chosen, Elemental mana started to thicken near the disputed land in the Western Planes. The land of Snake Nest was turned into a wasteland fifty years ago during the invasion of the humans and there slaves, the Mighty Beast King send here by the Gomath continent Sacred beast bloodline was killed by a plot of the humans, the sacred sword Iron Tooth disappearing with him. Ever sense then the friction between the humans of A'om and the Western Beastmen has been escalating daily.
The Elemental mana density here is starting to give these humans alot of confidence, they even started sending there mages to the front line.
A large Human with bear ears said to his squad.
He-he A'um shouldn't you be nicer after all your a half breed, a womanly voice said in jest.
A'um snorted in disdain, I am a warrior of Diamond Back Emperial City do not mix me with the humans of this fanatical Cult turn Country, my Human ancestry is far more noble, as for you Sha'la your probably in heaven with all this Elemental mana.
Sha'la quickly took a large long breath in happiness, Yess! I feel like I could blow up all the cannon fodder and still have plenty of power to kill the human mages.
Sha'la was a Beastmen with red hair and dog ears, a wagging tail could be seen from her happiness, She was as tall as the Half breed bear man but far less thick, however who ever thought she be easy up close sense she's a mage should think twice, aldough she was not talented on anything but Magic as a beastmen her body has been Tempering sense she could walk, thanks to the beastmen training techniques.
A'um directed his attention to the squad under him a normal infantry made of half breeds and beastmen, however before he could bark out orders.
C-cc-cccrack!! The land started to shake and cracked the mana in the air suddenly increased ten folds no one hundred times, The air quickly turn colorful like the Lights visible on the Southernmost part of the Elf and Pirate country.

Sha'la started to throw up, the mana so behaved around her now exiting her body leaving her with only what she could control.
And Aurora of beautiful colors slowly turn into a knife digging throughout the cracks on the ground, looking like rainbow flowers and feathers of Elemental mana racing to the entrance on the ground now formed. The phenomenon Slowly expanded to what seemed like miles stopping all conflicts around Snake Nest as they quickly retreated in panic. The creatures around 500miles of the center felt that all their Elemental mana was trying to escape but couldn't, do to there own life forcefield, any extra Elemental mana they keep around there body though raced to the aurora tornado in the distance.
Sha'la quickly composed herself marveling at the spectical before her eyes. So much Elemental mana and in such quantities, what in the world is being born here or what creature needs so much energy.
A'um in the other hand was worried about how much this would increase casualties, the conflict only needs a small spark to turn it into a war he was not sure if this will turn things better or far worse.
After what seem like a eternity but was more like ten minutes the phenomenon stopped, in its place a cave entrance four meters tall was displayed for all to see, it's entrance absorbing Elemental mana at a visual rate.
Seeing that mana gathered constantly, Sha'la immediately realized what it could be but dared not belive it. In that moment she tried to absorb Elemental mana around her but to her dismayed the mana simply ignored her and continued funneling to the entrance.
IT'S A DUNGEON! HOLY BEAST ABOVE, HOW CAN THERE BE A DUNGEON WITH SO MUCH ELEMENTAL MANA!
Sha'las surprise voice ran throughout her team members many of them trying to absorb Elemental mana. Being a group of fifteen there were at least one of each known elements however they couldn't draw the mana to them no matter the Type.
Noticing that none of his squad could absorb mana A'um quickly passed an order.
We are retreating, there's no way we can survive in enemy territory with no mana stones or cores to refill ourselves, let's move now! Before the humans realize that they can use this to ring us out.

The Beastmen squad quickly and efficiently escaped back to there own borders. As the people outside were reporting the emergence of a Dungeon that can absorb all Elements, our Dungeon Core was happily enjoying himself.
*Hahaha this feels wonderful there so much Elemental Mana!*
[Host has reached the maximum Elemental mana capacity. It is recommended for host to Produce Pure mana.]
Looking at my Statistics i was completely full again, I used a large amount of mana making my Labyrinth before the nine hours were up nearly bottoming out. I can craft anything I want as long as I have the materials, sadly all I have available is rocks, gravel, sand and some pieces of scrap metal here and there. My most price possession has to be the gemstone my geode was crafted at first I thought that they were useless, now however they are increasingly usefull.
[Prismatic Mana stone]
A stone created during the process of a Prismatic Dungeon Cores birth can be use to store any mana.(1 mana is worth 50 Elemental mana will convert to users affinity Element and convert other elements to mana at a rate of 50 Elemental mana for 1 mana.)
Capacity: 0000/2000.
Now I could reuse them and store Elemental mana, taking the twenty-four units out i filled as much as I could of mana after all of these i looked at my Statistics.
Mana: 500/500
Elemental mana: 421,474/421,474
Pure mana: 3
Mana stone(full): 6/24
After all of that I managed to fill six whole Mana Stones, while a seventh one was 1,120/2000 full. I however wonder why there's so much Elemental mana the System said I should get around thirty pure mana if I converted but i actually could make around too-hundredth and four. Now that I had so much mana I wanted to trade for Poison Ivy and the Wolf cub, I clicked Pure mana and began realizing what the System mite have ment.
[Would the Host like to trade 100 mana for 1 Pure mana. Warning the Host can't convert more then double it's max capacity of mana per day.]
So that's why... Considering that I maybe outside of any nearby city's or a wasteland ravaged by war who knows how long ago it will probably take three days for any big shots to show up with five-hundred mana by then I can make thirty Pure Mana. I proceeded to make Pure mana and traded it away for Poison Ivy.
[ Host has received Poison Ivy roots. Please accept the creature.]
After I obtained the plant roots I dug a hole under me and used the Prismatic Mana stone as fertilizers. The roots quickly started to grow covering a quarter of the room in just a few hours, I was happy to have gotten something as useful as the Prismatic mana stones, the roots themselves are earth type mana now that they can leech mana straight out of the stones converted amount my plants basically had a 100% efficiency for mana like Dungeon Cores as well as my personal privilege of all mana converting.
Looking at my Elemental mana it was growing at a rate of twenty-five thousand per hour this rate was insanely high. The amount of mana I had was enough for me to finish my first few rooms, The amount of mana needed to create rooms was large but easy to recuperate. In the back of my mind I had a bad feeling, like something would go wrong so for the next three days I was going to fill up my Mana tanks(Prismatic mana stone) and never go empty or sit on full mana. As I was planning to put the finishing touches on my "Welcome To Hell" Dungeon rooms i heard Q'ill talking to herself in worry.
~This Phenomenon is alot worse than what the old records of Prismatic Dungeon Cores should make at this rate.... the Sepiant races will put a huge shackle on Sweetie~
I did not know what this ,shackled, was but is most likely what my premonition is warning me about.

Discover the world with Alz as he sets off on an adventure, experiencing many new encounters, and overcoming obstacles along the way as he slowly delved deeper into the truths behind the world. --- IMPORTANT NOTE: This story is not fantasy-themed and not I didn't omit the fantasy tag by mistake. That said, there is meaning and significance to the title, except that it will be unveiled only much later into the story. Magical elements and the like will not be a factor in most of the story until the very end. tl;dr: This is not fantasy, magic doesn't play a role in the story. --- Updates: Will try to post a chapter once every 2 days PS. This is my first novel so there might be several issues in various aspects which I might not notice so comments are highly appreciated. --- This is more to add pressure to myself rather than anything else... but anyways the story is now part of the pledge!
