Chapter 1: Choices?
'Huh', thought Drago.
'What's goin on here.'
Drago can't seem to remember anything when all of a sudden a screen appears before him containing an unimaginable number of creatures.
"Choose a creature to guard your dungeon." Spoke a voice from within the void.
Drago is started and began pondering as he began looking through the names of the various creatures he could choose from. Suddenly one in particular caught his eye the dragon.
"I choose a dragon!" Shouted Drago afraid the voice wouldn't hear his conviction.
Suddenly the screen before him disappeared and was replaced by a new screen with various elements listed this time.
"Choose your gaurdians element." Shouted the voice from the void once again.
Drago once again began pondering.
'Water is calm and gentle but can still be used to kill making it very versatile, however I want my guardian to have the pinnacle in destructive power so with notion I've got the perfect element.'
"I choose lightning!" Shouted Drago
Yet again the screen was replaced this time with mob type creatures filling the screen.
"Choose a species of creatures to occupy the floors of your dungeon", Spoke the voice once more.
Drago began pondering what would be the perfect minion.
'What's do I need in a minion, I have the absolute power in the lightning dragon guardian, I need so things to wear out enemies before they reach the guardian so the are just lambs for the slaughter...' Drago pondered on that thought before he got an idea.
"I choose an Ant Queen." Drago said aloud with confidence.
The screen yet again disappeared only to be replaced by another.
"Choose your element, body constitution, and race" the voice responded.
'Hmmm that's quite a bit let's start with the element. I want versatility but I also want something complex...hmm yes that's it. Now for the body constitution, I want something with equal ability for all elements, yes that one will do just fine, and last my race, hmm well let's be an angel then.
"I choose void, Myriad elements Body, and half angel half dragon." Dragon responded with a confidence not seen often.
"Very well, welcome to the world of Asteria where 1000 random youngsters will try conquering your dungeon in 2 weeks time. If your dungeon can survive their raid then you will be able to add a floor to your dungeon and evolve your remains creatures once. There will be a 2 week break between waves and if your dungeon reaches 100 floors you will become a God and will no longer die if your dungeon is conquered. Good luck challenger."
'Weird' Drago thought as he was suddenly thrust into a vast open world ranch where he saw an pure black ant queen the size of a beagle.
'Wow, she's bigger than I thought she would be. But that's good that means the worker and soldier ants she gives birth to will be strong. I wonder if I can see how fast she can give birth.'
As soon as Drago had that thought a transparent screen appeared in front of him with the ant queens data.
Species: Black Ant Queen
Job: Breeder, Matriarch
Talent: Egg Factory (10% chance for elite variants to hatch. Can evolve with the Ant queen
Lvl: 1
Skills:
1. Devour lvl 1(0%): after consuming food Ant queen will absorb a small portion of the meals traits. 2hen skill proficiency reaches 100% the skill will evolve and you can choose between three traits from the ant queens diet to inherit. Max level:? Cooldown: N/A
2. Lay eggs lvl 1(0%): lays 100 worker ant eggs, 10 soldier ant eggs, 3 breeder ant eggs, and 1 King ant egg. Worker ants hatch after 2 hours and live for 4 weeks. Soldier ants hatch after 4 hours and live for 4 months. Breeder ants hatch after 1 day and live for 3 years. The King ant will live as long as the queen does not die. Max level:? Cooldown: 1 day
'I have two weeks so I should be able to hatch 1300 worker ants 130 soldier ants 39 breeder ants and 10 King ants just from the queen alone. The breeder ant only lay worker ant and soldier ant eggs and only 10 of each each day. So the rest 3 will lay 120 the next 3 will lay 110 and so on totalling 2340 bringing everything to a total of 3640 worker ants 2470 soldier ants 39 breeder ants and 13 king ants with varying amounts of elites.'
Two weeks flew by and Drago had decent luck managing to hatch an elite King and an elite breeder on day 1. The ant nest is built inside an extremely old and large oak tree. The diameter being larger than a pickup. The Ant queens devour ability had only consumed plant life thus far but had managed to reach 20% mastery. Here lay egg skill after 13 uses was sitting firming at 13%. There was a total of 3 elite breeders, 1 elite king, 300 elite workers and 200 elites soldiers. By this point Drago was pretty confident that he survive a raid from 1000 youngsters. He's honestly not sure if they will even make it to his lightning dragon. But even if they do he's confident they won't last long if they do. With the Trial about to start and having nothing else to do Dragon had the workers set up patrols that were led by various elites with swift communication channels with the nearest elite soldier or king in the case of an emergency. He ran battle drills for the remaining 24 hrs before the trial. That last day past by swiftly and before Drago new it he sensed 1000 new presences in his domain.
"Welcome youngsters to my void dungeon. If you can pass through my 2 trials and defeat my guardian I will grant you a blessing." Drago spoke out domineering as if he new everything he just said would truly happen should someone conquer the dungeon, and with the traits Drago chose the blessing they receive would shock the whole world. Little did anyone know only 1 person would ever conquer this dungeon and surprisingly it would only happen long after Drago becomes a god.
