Chapter 2 - Origin 2

As soon as those words were heard, the core began to glow, which lasted for only a few seconds, which was followed by a painful screech, as the core gained intelligence, it also gained emotions, along with a sence of pain brought along by the constant smashing along the floor of the newly created room. After the glow disappeared, the centre of the core gained a slight golden glow, in contrast with the dull gray/ blue exterior.

When this new intelligence settled from the pain, it began to remember its past, although only a short part was spent awake, it allowed the core to know some of its functions

1st anything that dies inside the room can become its strength, in the form of experience and energy.

2nd when origin energy is used it can create beneficial abilities, such as intelligence.

Once its thoughts we're organised , it also has the thought of killing these bugs.

Fighting through the pain, the core spent many hours killing these bugs

[ Origin energy+5]

[ experience + 0.5]

As soon as its origin energy reached 5, a group of light dots appeared infront of it forming a screen which displayed it's information

[ name: unknown ( please add)]

[Race: dungeon core - infant]

[Realm: 1st level, 1st stage)

[ experience :( 1.7/ 100)]

[ origin power:(5/100)]

[abilities: intelligence ( basic ),

Mob store( cost 1 origin energy to awaken)

Item store(cost 1 origin energy to awaken )

Ability store( cost one origin energy to awaken)

Upon seeing this the core looked through all the information . It looked at the name section with a sence of confusion, it didn't know the purpose of having a name but since it was asked he began to think until a thought appeared inside its head, not like all the others, as if someone was talking strait to its mind " nexus" ,along with this name came its meaning, the centre point, the one that can hold everything together, without a reason to refuse the core used its thougts to control the screen to change its name.

Once the name was confirmed, nexus began to glow again, this time for a full hour, during this time a huge stream of information appeared in the mind of the dungeon core, the information included everything from the many races to the history of this world, according to the information, the world it was in was called alanor, which consisted of 5 different continents, one in the centre along with one on all 4 sides, nexus resided in the central continent, which as a large grassland , with large mountain ranges along each of its coastlines, as if surrounding the continent in an impossibly large wall. The other continents also had there own environments, the northern continent was deathly cold, only those adapted to the cold such as ice elves, blizzard wolves and snow dragons, on the southern continent was a fire filled wasteland, covered in desserts and volcanoes, this land was home to mostly infernal dragons, salamanders and dwarves, as for the east and west, there landscapes were both jungles and marshes, although some races lived there, not much information was given about them only that they were very dangerous.

Once all the information was recieved and sorted, he moved on to checking the rest of the abilities. First was the mob shop, without hesitation one origin energy was deducted and a long list appeared in nexus's mind

Horned rabbit: 1 origin energy

Horned rabbit spawned: 100 origin energy( one rabbit per day, can be upgraded)

As the first, and cheapest option, the horned rabbit caught nexus's eye, if the rabbit can kill bugs for him, he wouldn't have to kill them himself, which will save him both time and effort. Before purchasing a horned rabbit, he began looking at the other stores, he paid the origin energy for both immediately, leaving only 2 left to spend. He first looked at the item shop, this shop had a range of things for sale, such as weapons and armour for different races, as well as sculptures and decorations, however the most useful items for him was the plant seeds, if he bought the rabbit, he would have needed the plants in order to keep it alive,. The final shop was the ability shop which, like the others, showed him a list of things he could buy.the first thing he saw was the upgrade of his already aquired skill

[Intelligence ( medium): 3000 origin energy]

Seeing the price of this upgrade, he immediately forgot about upgrading the skill and began looking through the other skills.

Upon looking, he found the cheapest skill he could buy.

[Expansions: 10 origin energy]

This skills description showed that with it he could use origin energy to dig out a new area, away from the dungeon core, at the cost of

1E(origin energy) per M^2

Once he had finished looking through the skills, he finally decided to spend his origin energy.
