《Galactic Intervention》007 Green devils
Advertisement
I wake up to the noise of a shrill screeching noise. I get up and lean out of my window to see Sarah stabbing a green creature. I was scratching at her face but her knife kept it at a long enough distance that its arms couldn't reach her. I let down my rope then climbed down. To see if Sarah needed any help. "Ya need any help or do you got this."
Sarah twisted her blade then the creature went stiff and burst into a cloud of shiny white mist. "I got it. I found it just walking through the middle of town meaning the guard was probably asleep."
I scratched my head. "I will have to talk to Jack then to see how he put as the guard for tonight."
I heard a few creaking noises and turned to see that the thing's screech woke up the whole hamlet. "What is going on Finn?"
I turned to the voice and it was Jack jogging over. "The guard must have fallen asleep since a green creature got in. Luckily Sarah killed it. Hey Sarah is the cloud thing a skill of yours?"
She shook her head "No." She waved away the cloud and it dissipated revealing a red gem and a white gem which I used inspect both on.
Name: Soul Stone (Goblin)
Rank: Monster soul (White)
Quality: Scuffed
Remarks: Eh. It's a stupid goblin's soul.
(Author note real quick: The soul stone ranks go White, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, Violet, Rainbow. The quality work like this: Fractured, Scuffed, Whole, Condensed, Dense, Unbreaking. Blood crystals works the same way.)
Name: Blood crystal (Goblin)
Rank: Monster blood (White)
Quality: Whole
Effects: Swallow to maybe have a small gain
Remarks: Eat these to get the effects of leveling with less work done.
I picked up both crystals and handed both to Sarah "The red one you should swallow like a pill while the white one should be held onto for later use." She nodded and then swallowed the red crystal.
She looked up to me "It melts in your mouth then your mouth tastes like a load of iron. Oh a screen popped up in front of me. It says that I have gained one to each stat and I even gained something called a Blood wheel. It says that each time you swallow a blood crystal your blood wheel will gain blood traits. You can spin the wheel at anytime but if it doesn't work, you will lose all your progress. It also says that there are two types of blood wheels. The first is the monster wheel so when you spin you have to pick a monster's blood that you want to spin for. So let's say that you want goblin traits you will be only rolling the wheel for goblin traits and only that monsters blood build up will be rolled. The second wheel is a Heritage wheel so when you roll this wheel you won't gain traits from a monster but instead you will gain memories or techniques from their blood. If you get a noble monster's heritage your bloodline will be mixed with it and you gain the chance to gain their throne if you can kill the rest of your now siblings. Wow this system had a lot of stuff to say. Thanks system."

I wondered why only the goblin dropped the crystals while this has never happened before. Was it a rare thing or could it only happen under certain circumstances? I pondered it for a second then a screen popped up.
World announcement!
The first blood crystal and soul crystal have been dropped!
New information will now be given!
A blood crystals drop on a 1/1000 chance or if you kill 100 of that creature. It will also have a 100 percent chance to drop if you kill a demon.
These can be consumed to gain a blood wheel roll percentage and heritage percentage.
Soul crystals drop under the same conditions as blood crystals.
The soul crystals are used as the main fuel source for magic rituals and magic machines. Maybe something else if you have an aptitude for it.
And with that good luck!
My brow furrowed into a ball with how confused I was. 'So how is it that we were the first to get one? Surely by now someone is out there hunting down a large amount of creatures. Unless this is the first dead demon. Either way we really lucked out by being the first to have this stuff. We need to start hunting more aggressively to improve my people with blood crystals.'
I looked back to Sarah "How much percent did the one blood crystal give you?" I asked quickly.
Sarah smiled with glee "One hundred percent since I am the first. I also get a large boost in my gains with blood crystals because again I am the first. The system also gave two skills the first skill is blood culling which lets me destroy one trait that I choose from the blood crystal. I chose to cull the trait Green blood there is a cool down of 12 hour thought. The other skill I gained is called Blood burn. It lets me consume a blood crystal and use its percentage gains as a fuel for my stats. It also says for each percentage used I gain 1 stat to everything."
Sometimes when she talks I forget that she is still a child. I wonder if she has been raising her intelligence stat a ton. "Hey Sarah can I try and use your soul stone? If it gets used up I can go and find you a new one." She looked up and me and handed me the stone "Don't even worry about getting another one. I have no uses for it as far as my skills go." With that she hands me the soul crystal. Then does a slot machine pull and lets her arms fall to her sides watching the air. After a minute or so a blood red mist popped into existence growing and growing. It flew into Sarah nose, mouth, and ears lifting her off of her feet. Her eyes were crimson then faded into her normal blue eyes but with a strange speckle of green here and there.
Sarah frowned and looked up at me "I got the trait Enthuke's chosen. It gives me direct contact with the god of the goblins and allows me to take quests and rewards from him." Once she was done talking her eyes glazed over then looked to me with glowing green eyes. A voice came out of her. It was deep and dry "This is now my child. Those who come to claim her life shall meet my wraith. I bless these lands with a gift." Sarah then looked to me "Listen her Finn. You will protect my child with your very life or I will let Rinx loose again. If you let her live without harm till she becomes 13. you and her will be blessed with a divine gift of mine. For now I will allow you to have a taste of your potential. Remember to protect the future queen." With that Sarah's eyes faded back to normal. She doubled over clutching her stomach. I noticed that green blood flowed from her mouth. It flowed into a line that then crawled onto her neck. It seemed to make a sigil then it sunk into her neck becoming a glowing green tattoo.

I picked her up after seeing that she was fine and was only sleeping. Once I brought her back to the house I set her in her bed then checked my notifications
Your lands have been blessed by Enthuke the Tricky Goblin God!
All goblins will feel the urge to be peaceful here and will not attack anything here!
Other demons feel a pull to this area and might attack in groups.
Any blood crystals or soul crystals will have a small part of goblin essence inside of them.
Goblin specific wheel rolls will also have a higher chance of becoming a knight or higher tier heritage/ bloodline by 5%.
(Author's note again: Heritage ranks work in the following order. Squire, Knight, Noble, Viscount, Baron, Duke, Prince, King, Demigod, Young God, Adult God, Old God, Ancient God, Primordial. Also Enthuke is pronounced N-thuk)
You have received a divine quest!
Keep Sarah safe until she turns 13.
Rewards: Divine gifts, Divine bloodline, or a divine pet.
Quest progress: 12/13 years
Remarks: Don't piss off a god by failing their quests unless you have a more powerful god backing you up.
I felt a feeling of pride knowing that Sarah was gonna maybe grow up to become a great being but I also felt a large pressure knowing that Rinx could be back to fuck everything up. I Felt a warmth coming from my pocket. I reached into it and fished around till I found the warmth, it was the soul crystal. I decided to experiment with it and set it closer to Sarah and farther from me. The crystal dimmed down. Once I grabbed it and brought it closer to me it felt warm and glowed even brighter. I then set onto the drawer and walked away. Once again it dimmed to a very soft glow. I then grabbed the crystal and tried to naw on it seeing it could be chewed on but after a minute nothing worked. I guess Enthuke was watching me the whole time because I felt a hand take the crystal and shove it down my throat and shutting my mouth to force me to swallow. I felt like a little kid be force fed their cold medicine.
After a few seconds I felt a warmth in my stomach. It spread out over my body causing me to heat up and sweat. The heat soon became too much for me to handle and I let out a scream of pain. It felt like someone was flaying me while another person poured salt and lemon juices into my wounds. My teeth felt like they were being ripped out. My muscles were cramping. I fell to the floor in pain. I was shaking on the ground with my mouth frothing. My body was convulsing and flopping around so much that I hit my head onto the tiles and cracking them. I layed there for minutes then hours until the pain finally went away.
I opened my eyes to see something in the mirror looking back at me. Its ears were long like elven ears, it had silver hair and glowing orange eyes with black pupils. Its skin was a dull grey mixed with a bunch of dark red symbols covering its arms and legs. I tried to stand up but so did the creature. I looked down to look at myself then back to the creature. I looked normal so was this some sort of magic or was I able to see into a new dimension with mirrors? I walked closer to the mirror and the creature came closer. I decided that this must be me in but maybe a magical way like my true potential. I held my arm close to the mirror and pressed onto it. My arm slid right through while making ripples in the mirror like it liquid. I then felt like a hand grabbed my arm and whipped me through the portal.
Once I was totally through I felt myself become taller, lighter, and stronger than ever before. I looked around to see a cloaked person lying on the ground. I walked over and tried to get close but then a black beam shot through my chest hitting me so hard I flew back. The person stood up and turned to me "Welcome to the soul canvas. This will be your home until you can impress me."

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.

With his parents in shock and his best friend suffering from unbearable guilt, Damien finds himself without much support. Being unable to even take his own life, Damien struggles to get past each day, looking for something to live for. With every passing day, Damien becomes more solemn and impassive. Three months later, Damien has almost given up, but to his surprise something unexpected happens. He is given the chance of a lifetime; to take part in a study focused on researching the effects of VR games on quadriplegic patients. Authors Note: If you find that the dialogue from the prologue to chapter 5 seem to be not that smooth, I apologize for that, it was my first time writing a fanfic so the dialogue was not in a format that is ideal. However, due to reader comments and some research I will try to attempt to improve the dialogue from chapter 6 and onwards. I may or may not come back to edit the first few chapters since I would have to rewrite most of it and I would rather spend that time writing out more of the story.
