"nnmmm." Markus groans. He Gets up to see his Legs are wrapped up in cloth and Have some kind of Liquid Applied to them. Same for his feet. Speaking off. His Boots were Taken apart.
"Oh come on. I was gonna fix them." He complains. He Notices in his Inventory that the gems for his Boots are still in his inventory so he can at least start a little earlier from scratch at least. His Arm was in a Sling as well.
He Notices a Chair and Two Wooden Wheels. He Grabs the wheels and The chair and Crafts them together into a Wooden Wheelchair.
He places it down and Gets on it to see what happened to him.
He opens the door to see Andr and Cupa placing blocks down to build a Wall in between the cliffs. "Girls?" He asks while rolling to them.
"Oh my god Markus what are you doing up? You should be resting." Andr says teleporting to him. "Yeah I got that. What happened to me?" He asks.
"You were injured by a Group of Illagers. we were admittedly worried when you left and we had to save your butt when you were clearly in pain from those boots." Cupa explains. "Yeah thanks for breaking them by the way. I could've scrapped them at least." Markus complains.
"This isn't the time to be joking. You should be resting. Your legs have burns on them and that arrow was embedded into your bone." Andr says. "Ugh fine. At least tell me what you've been doing." Markus complies.
"We've decided to wall off the three gaps for the cliffs with the materials we have. I've been mining out a Mineshaft in that cliff there and we've collected some ores as well. But for now we have been using the cobblestone to wall off the entryways." Cupa explains.
Markus wheels himself to the wall to see its one block thick. "Well you're not gonna do a good job with a wall like this. You need stone bricks to provide a Foundation and stripped logs to provides a Valid frame. Then fill the thing with Concrete to truly reinforce it." He complains.
He looks over to the Girls to see they are confused. "Seriously. None of you know what I'm talking about?" He asks. They nod no and he Facepalms.
"Of course. Where's the ores and Furnace then?" He asks.
"Over by our Mineshaft." Andr points to it. "Alright I'm gonna check out what you all collected at least. It may prove useful to us." He says. He wheels over and opens the chest up to see it consisted of a surplus of Iron, Gravel, Redstone, sulfur, and a few other modded ores.
"Cupa, is there a Paper and Pen I can use?" He asks. "Uhm Yes. Why?" She asks. "Get me them. If your gonna build a Wall then you're gonna do it right. I'm Gonna sketch out a Framework design I want you to Build. Andr, You're gonna help me craft the machines we need." Markus orders. "Oh, Uhm sure." Andr says. Meanwhile Markus finishes his Sketch and Passes it to Cupa. "Here. Take the stone bricks from the chest and place them down like how I told you in this. When your out take the cobblestone and make a Furnace to cook the cobblestone and Make it into stone. I'll tell you what to do with that soon." He passes the sheet to her and she runs off holding her iron pickaxe.
He Starts making Crafting recipes and Hands them to Andr. "Since I'm down one arm for now. You're gonna build the machines and Materials. These sheets will tell you the crafting recipes you need to use to make what I have in mind." He explains. He wheels over to a Crafting bench and Furnace with a Few things and begins Crafting a Few things.
He places down the stonecutter, Smeltery (Vanilla Minecraft) and Sets them besides him. He fills the smeltery with cobblestone and Coal to start it up. He Watches as Andr passes him the things he needed.
He places down a Crusher and Attaches the Redstone engine. (Buildcraft and Ex Nihilo) He makes the connection secure and Places a redstone torches by it. the Redstone engine starts up and the grinder whirs to life.
Markus throws a Stack of Cobblestone into it and Moves to the Smeltery to grab the stone. He places the block on the stone cutter and a UI opens up in his View. He places the stone in the input slot and Begins pulling out the Stone bricks till he has a Stack in his hands alongside a half stack of Stairs and Slabs. He drops them by the entrance of the mineshaft for Cupa and Moves to a Spot to place a Mixer (Original as much as to my knowledge.) down. The Grinder is finished with the cobblestone and turning it into Dust.
He Grabs the Dust and Moves the Mixer under the Grinder to pour the dust into it. He Puts the Gravel in it and the Mixer powers on to create Powdered Stone concrete.
He Pours in some redstone as Well and Moves to a Crafting Bench to make the iron ingots into Iron Bars. He Wheels over to meet Cupa. "Alright. I want you to fill the big spaces in with these. They'll Be part of the Framework." He says.
She nods and Takes them with her while Markus Finishes up with all his Concrete powder. He grabs a Few buckets and Wheels over to the Pond with Andr. He fills up about eight of them and gives them to Andr. Go make a Temporary wall of wood around the frames and Make sure there are no gaps. When Cupa is done take the extra mixer and Attach a Faucet under them with a tank for the water. I Want you to hold them and pour the Concrete mixture to fill in the empty spaces. When they reach the top of the Wood is when you're done and are to move to the Next wall. When your finished Light up the redstone to quick dry it with a Lever on the wood and you'll be all set." He says whilst filling more buckets. He grabs a Mixer and places a Tank on top of it and a Hose on the bottom. (Industrialcraft and Adventurer's Backpacks.) He adds a Pair of Crossing straps it and gives it to Andr to let her put it on and gather the Materials.
Cupa runs to Andr to help her out while Markus wheels over to a chest with food to eat something. He was starving.
He was Eating a Cooked steak and Placing a Smoker down when he suddenly felt something Slimey hit his head. He looks up to see that it was a Tiny Blue Slime.
"Oh hey. Did you recently spawn?" He asks. He looks further up to see the Slime Island still there. The Blue slime reforms on his head and Looks at his Steak. Markus offers it and the Slime eats it up by dissolving the food. It melts into his hair and seemingly sighs in contempt. Markus chuckles and pets the Slime.
"You know what. I'm keeping you. As long as you don't mind hiding in hats or a helmet." He concedes. The Slime wiggles happily and makes its slimey body merge with his hair. Giving it a thin bright blue glow over his black hair and dark blue tips. His brown roots where changed to a bright blue as well.
Markus hears shattering wood and sees that Andr was Stepping back as the Concrete compressed and formed a wall two blocks wide. He chuckles at that and wheels over to another wall that has been filled. He pulls the lever and it shatters as the redstone compresses and drys the concrete. He knocks on it and Confirms the strength.
He Places down a garage Door (Malisis Doors) that he crafted into the doorway until its filled up and a lever to open it. He repeats this with the next walls and confirms that they work. He nods in contempt. and Notices his Legs feel less numb. He Unties the wraps to see the burns are gone.
"A passive healing factor?" He asks himself as he tries getting up. He stumbles a bit but he is soon walking with no trouble at all. He undoes the sling and tests his arm. Fully functional and working.
"Markus?!" Andr asks dropping her things. He shrugs.
(A Week later)
Markus Sat at his Desk in his House looking at the Map made of his current home.
His office was a room with Windows as the wall made of Edged glass and Stone bricks as the Border. He Turned to see the Window provided an ample view of Tripetram Village. Which right now consisted if a Barren plot of grass and a few crop plots. The Houses he made earlier were no longer there as Andr and Cupa built their Rooms under his Underground house.
His House consisted of a Bunch of hallways and rooms that connected to each other and were in the Cliff he live in. The Hole was patched up on the other side but he made the other end a Part of his own office space.
A spiraling staircase going upwards to the Middle met at his Second floor. It was where their Rooms were at along with a Living room and Kitchen. Most of the Rooms are guest rooms on the upper and lower levels but a Few are usable like the kitchen. Bathroom, and Basement. He sighs.
"I can't get a valid idea of the amount of land with this." He complains.
Simby The Slime ammerges from his hair and looks at him Questioningly. "Well what should I do?" He asks.
Simby blinks and Markus seems to take that as an answer. "I don't know Simby. I'm Not sure what is different with the mod considering the context."
Simby wiggles in annoyance. "Okay fine. I'll check The dungeon out. But your staying here to watch the house. Capiche?" Simby jumps of his head to move a bit of its mass and salutes. Markus chuckles and pets him. "Alright. I'll be off now." He says as he heads off. He Grabs a Few empty maps and Stores them in his own GUI to give fuel to Map function in his Menu.
He heads to a Room full of Crafted clothes made of grown Cotton and leather and other items to find his adventurer gear.
Said gear hung onto an Armor stand.
It consisted of a vegan leather Jacket with added shoulder armor and Inlayed Chainmail under a Fur lining. Under the packet was a diamond shaped Backplate and breastplate over a blue shirt and Dark blue vest. Alongside that is a Pair of Jeans with inlayed Chainmail and four pieces of Armor on the sides of his upper thighs and on the front of his ankles.
His new boots were hard leather boots with iron toes and a Sole made of steel and had its heel fitted with a better piston launch mechanism. They also had Bounce pads in the soles to reduce fall damage. A Light up dial on the back of the boots revealed it was electric powered. On the Armor stand hands were a Pair of Gloves with Armored fingers and Knuckles but no thumb.
On top of everything was the Armor stand head holding his leather adventurer hat with the lips folded up and a Pair of Goggles under it.
Markus smiled and Began dressing up in the armor to gear up. He put on the various belts and sashes that held his tools and then a Modified Backpack on his back.
The Backpack may seem small but it held about 50 inventory slots as he Had upgraded this backpack multiple times. It was a simple Looking backpack with three smaller pockets on the front and one main pocket on top. On the sides are Two (Seemingly) small tanks for liquids with two crystals in the middle of them. They are able to hold about 30 buckets of liquid in fact.
On the bottom was a Bound up sleeping bag to roll out as well. He Nodded and Headed to his Armory to grab his Sword and Pickaxe. He hung his pickaxe to his back with the strap and Sheathed the sword on his back. He put his axe and shovel in his Bag and also grabbed a Revolver.
The Revolver had a Long barrel and Held 12 bullets in the Chamber. He put that away in his Holster and went out to head upstairs.
He Arrived at the third floor where a doorway in the hallway led outside to a Rope Bridge connecting he Cliff to the Slime Island. There he found Andr and Cupa having a Picnic.
"Hey Gals. I'm gonna go investigate a Structure I found. Wanna Come with?" He asks them. "Hell yeah! Ever since I began training I've wanted to test my strength out for quite some time." Cupa agrees punching the air in excitement. Her hands have been wrapped up to symbolize her fighting style.
"Well if Cupa is going then I'm coming for sure." Andr says.
She was still in her casual outfit so its unsure to tell what kind of fighter she is. "Then get dressed and meet me at Wall Opal." Markus says. He walks to the Edge and Falls of it backwards. He Flips in the air and spreads his Arms Wide holding his hat down Before Extending the Pistons in his Boots to reveal springs over the main bar and landed on his Feet. The impact was absorbed and he Bounced in the air.
"WHOO HOO HOOO!" He yells as He bounces again. Eventually he stopped and the pistons where back in his boots.
He Walks over the Wall Opal and hears the telltale sign of Ender teleportation. He looks to the side to see Andr and Cupa who traveled via her teleportation powers.
Cupa herself wore a green zip up sweatshirt with torn off sleeves over a light green tanktop with a creeper face in the middle. Just under that is a Black sports bra to hide her goods.
On her arms was a Wrapping on her hands and her fore arms with the Gem on full display with a Gold Vambraces to make the Embedded gem look like Jewelry. on her Ebows was a Modified elbow pad with a Hammer head on it.
Her hands meanwhile have three claw hammer heads as the Knuckles to fight with. For lower wear she wore a green plaid kama attached to a Belt over a pair of black gym shorts that hugs her nicely and reaches her knees. Her knees are the same as her elbow pads and Her boots just have a Hammer head at the heel.
Andr meanwhile wore a black jacket under a Full torso with no shoulder protection armor piece made of a steel alloy. It was black with Purple colored trim and a single Rose on the front where her chest is.
Her fore arms were covered in Vambraces made by Markus to deploy a Shield to use or a Blade to attack with. The Shield was a Flat rectangular shield with the banner pattern of a Black Dragon in a Dark purple Background on the front. When both are deployed the dragons face each other.
She wore a Pleated skirt over a Pair of Jeans with greaves over her ankles. Her mouth was covered in a Mask with a Fanged smile while she wore a black Beanie hat over her head.
"Ready?" He asks. "Yep!" Cupa says. "I am." Andr confirms. "Good. Let's go then!" Markus says opening the Garage door with a Snap.
It opens and they head out. The door shutting behind them.
"So this is it?" Cupa asks. A Little Disappointed. "Yep." Markus confirms. In front them stood a stone brick doorway with a iron door in it. "Is, Is it a Portal?" Cupa asks. "Yep." Markus says turning the knob and opening it. "Wait what?" Cupa asks not expecting to see an Actual portal. Markus Steps inside. "Come on! Its pretty cool being in one of these." he says.
Andr and Cupa Look at each other before shrugging and entering the portal.
They open their eyes to see a Giant dungeon like hallway before them.
(A/N: Alright I'm gonna take some creative liberty here and Tell you that I've changed the Dimensional door dungeons to use the Structural generation of Rougelike dungeons to make them more interesting. As a Trade off the Dungeons only spawn with Dimensional doors as the entrance. So you won't find them in the Overworld.)
"Welcome to a Dimensional Door Dungeon. And judging by the quality I say its a Tier two Dungeon." Markus States. Though he admittedly isn't that sure either.
"Wow. How is this Possible?" Cupa asks.
"Oh we've had these back in my world as well. So many boring already looted dungeons being used for stupid mob farms." Markus bullshits.
"Mob farms?" Andr asks as they explore the Dungeon halls. "Well you know how certain mobs used to turn into pufts of smoke when they die? Its like that back in my world. We find a Spawner and Rebuild a Room around them to Make the mobs spawn into channels to Funnel them into a Killing spot. From there we collect their drops they leave behind." Markus explains.
"I see. To bad most of them have to decay then turn into smoke first." Andr groans. "Yeah that was a Horrible day for all people involved." Mason groans. He Slashes and cuts down a Zombie trying to attack him. "Now since this is a Tier two dungeon we can expect a Boss at the end we have to beat to exit the dungeon." Markus informs. "Why is that?" Cupa asks.
"Kinda par for the course with these things. I've dungeon crawled enough to know what to expect. Also do not open that chest. It is a Mimic." Markus calmly states as He Slays another Zombie. This time three parasites are burrowing out of the body to attack him. Markus instead picks them up and Stores them in his backpack.
"Ew." Cupa says. "What? They're safe to eat when cooked." Markus says.
And Scene. Now onto the reviews. Er I mean. Review.
Kreuzer:
I have a couple of mod ideas: Give him the Erebus and Twilight Forest mods, think it'd be nice adding extra dimensions.
Oh! I'm glad you mentioned that! I've decided to make the dimensions part of the lore and I'm combining Erebus and the Twilight Forest together to create a Hybrid Dimension. The Erubus Forest.
Anyways that's all I'll be able to say. So with that, As always, This is Madko, Signing off.
