38 Dungeon Creation Part 02

Fourth world Name not set

With the help of the "World Creator" who changed jobs, he succeeded in creating a new world without having to spend a lot of time controlling it.

Also, since the magic power required to maintain it is slightly reduced, it is possible to use magic power with a margin.

"Well, it wouldn't make sense to use the same amount of mana to operate the labyrinth."

If you don't try it once, the function won't be written in the help.

From my experience so far, I know that if it's the system I used, it will be listed properly.

"That's why I don't even know if I'll use magic or not."

"If you want to start the labyrinth, you have to prepare a starter kit first."

And so, I took out the "Dungeon Core" that was specially stored in the "Space-Time Storage".

I don't know what will happen, so I put it in a container that doesn't emit magical power (by [Production God]) and carry it around.

"The location is... in the center, okay?"

"Well, the center can be freely adjusted later."

It was placed with two things in mind: to avoid contact with the ground and to prevent magic power from interfering.

Considering the possibility of absorbing magic power, prepare several magic power recovery potions (quality: S) before touching the core.

"... There is no forced intervention, the moment you touch it you are a dungeon master!

After confirming once again whether there were any flaws, I slowly poured in my magic power.

Then, the UI suddenly appeared in front of me──

! ! !

ERROR

"A dungeon cannot be constructed in this location."

"A room of 9 cubic meters or more is required."

! ! !

"Well, it's a warning."

Was there such a restriction in the labyrinth...if you think about it, this first place will be the place where the core will be placed, albeit temporarily.

If it's an extremely narrow place and no one can enter, there will be some restrictions on the attackers.

"There may be people who would be in trouble if they were to claim that they were absolutely unbeatable."

"In other words, you need a small room..."

It would have been nice if it could have been created instantly with materialization magic, but it could disappear if the mana ran out, so that was abandoned.

Instead, prepare the installation site with only earth-attribute magic that does not disappear naturally.

"Production... I guess? Oh, yeah."

Don't just try to build a small room, but seek artistry.

Then, a simple room design came to mind.

"It really looks like a computer editing screen."

I turned most of my attention to that direction and imagined how my image would color the room.

Then, you will naturally understand how you can do it, and you will be able to understand, with a faint awareness, that your body will reflect itself in reality.

"As expected of [Production God]... anything is possible."

During production activities, when I consciously wish for what I want to create, the image comes to mind.

"It's a very useful power when you want to make something you can't make yourself, but you need it."

"That's how the room was completed."

Not only the pedestal where the core is installed, but also the walls and vessels are engraved with vivid pictures.

design? "... well, don't worry about it."

"Next time I'll pour magic power... is that enough?"

Fortunately, the work was carried out with less mana than the creation of holy and magical weapons.

The core I put my hand on gradually changes from colorless to colored.

　　　　　・　　　・　　　・

　　　　　　COMPLETE

Confirm that a certain amount of magical power has been charged

"From now on, "unnamed" will start

　　　　　・　　　・　　　・

The core was dyed in seven colors, starting with red, and then through the glow of white and black.

Before long, it flickered violently, and the light that seemed to envelop the room once took away my vision.

"This is the dungeon management program. It is an entity that guides those who have registered with the core."

A voice that passed through my head like an announcement.

He works with a very inorganic, mechanical voice with zero emotion.

"For those who come into contact with the core for the first time, this support is automatically provided. So that anyone can manage it, if you put your thoughts into it while touching it, your intention will be transmitted."

"Well, in the case of creations, there are cases where non-humans manage the labyrinth."

"It wasn't a brutal program that forced knowledge into it, so I guess I should be grateful for it now."

When I touched the core as I was told, I tried thinking of my intentions with magical power, just like when I was doing [Thought Chant].

...Of course, I won't try to make up for it one by one.

"nice to meet you. Um, do you have a name? "It's troublesome to call it a dungeon management program every time..."

"As you wish. This body that supports registrants doesn't really need a name. Please make it easy for me to call you."

"Really? "Then, let me call you 'Ren'."

By the way, it's Ren of cooperation.

"Since I'm going to be supporting you, I'd like to have a one-on-one relationship."

"Change of Name. From now on, please call this dungeon management program Ren."

"Oh, please take care of me, Ren"

"yes. In order to manage the dungeon better together, let's work hard to improve it."

Then the labyrinth lecture by Ren began.

Each time the information was conveyed, it was recorded in the help function, so it was fun to listen to, as if the system had been liberated.

After listening to the story for a long time... the information I gathered looks like this──

-------------------------------------------------- -------

・Everything you do in the labyrinth requires the consumption of DP - Dungeon Points -

"If you don't want to use it, do something on your own."

・DP can be increased by storing energy in the core or by collecting it from people in the labyrinth.

However, it cannot be collected from monsters found in the labyrinth or protected objects certified by the labyrinth owner.

・If you are a [Labyrinth Lord] and all cores are destroyed, you will receive Despena and be deprived of your job (if you are a free citizen, you will die).

When the conditions are met, new functions will be added to the core through the [Labyrinth Master]

-------------------------------------------------- -------

"Well, it's like this."

A template labyrinth that is common in creations, it's a system that makes you feel that way.

"The problem is about deprivation."

"This body, which has never died, must continue to live in this safe world."

"This is the end of the explanation. Next, let's actually expand the labyrinth dungeon."

"Eh, is it a labyrinth?"

"It's because we've done a lot of coordination during the question-and-answer session."

"The [Nuclear Core] was also changed."

"Is it necessary to use DP? "

"no. It doesn't matter which way

"Then, I will use magic to spread it...is that okay? "

"yes. However, dungeon use consumes DP. DP is also required to maintain it, so it is not always possible to expand it recklessly."

"Having said that, I decided to expand the labyrinth in a well-balanced manner."

Using earth magic and rock magic, first create a huge cave to assimilate with the small room.

Of course, we didn't create a wide cavity, but made it an intricate labyrinth. 　

"You can convert it into DP by pouring magic into it, right?" "

"The conversion rate is not high, but it is still possible to increase it"

"That's Enough"

Next, we started working outside the cave.

Use tree magic to grow a large number of trees to create a forest-like place.

At the same time, activate the phantom fog magic "Lost Fog of Confusion" to make the forest lose its sense of direction.

It seems that the labyrinth side will manage the trees and maintain the fog if DP is paid.

So I used tree magic to create a wider grassland ── and finished the work for the time being.

"For now? "

"Where is there room for improvement? After recovering the magic once, we plan to apply a little more natural tricks."

"...Could you please finish the tutorial first? "

"Ah, yes."

A lot of magic power that has been consumed will be recovered by recovering it in Sue.

"In the meantime, just sleep peacefully... Zzz."
