26 Small Victory and Complete Defea

More than a month ago the information about Floor 1 of Johns Dungeon was revealed and Players competed for the first clear.

Cpt.Bling also wanted to clear it and payed the best players to accompany him they even had some runs where the were awfully close of clearing it. Now they wanted to try it again with brandnew equipment and high morale they ventured into the dungeon.

They were quite surprised by the new Name of the dungeon "Mausoleum of Titans: Floor 1 Scrap labyrinth" but they didn't think much about it an started clearing it.

They did get slightly injured and lost one member because he let his concentration sink and was hugged by a junkling that hit itself.

But they advanced quite smoothly and entered the boss room now it had to go fast as they couldn't risk to let it create new Junklings so the rushed in and smashed all Scraplings and all workpieces the smith bot worked on but some junklings came from behind out of the labyrinth but after a ten minute fight with 2 casualties.

They were happy and waited for the first clear announcement that didn't come.

Cpt.Bling smashed his weapon on the corpse of the smithing bot to vent some anger until they discovered a staircase that goes down a level and the understood that the dungeon was expanded so the packed their stuff to find the owner of the dungeon to give him a good beating.

When they arrived at the second floor they spent some time to study the carvings on the wall to bad that half of the carving was unreadable but the saw some small robots that were running away and some strange giant blocks and a demonlike monster so they guessed that there a similar monsters like junklings and a demon as boss and they went in. They were even surprised when they found a teleport room they could use to start at the second floor "Scrapmasters Nightmare".

The theme of the second floor was similar to the first floor as both were labyrinths but there were some strange metal walls but they thought that there must have been a preexisting dungeon where some were demolished so the dungeon master had to add these walls.

The Group had 6 remaining members as they just lost a man through a pit filled with mercury that turned from solid to fluid in mere seconds under the unlucky player.

after some minutes they decided that they would take a short break to rest their minds.

Just when they were in the middle of their break they heard 2 outcries and some mechanical chucklingand they saw how two of their teammates chased a small robot which both held their coin pouches in their hand, and just when the group tried to follow their mates the bots threw something on the ground.

The melee classes with heavy armor were merely slowed as their feet got heavier when the caltrops got stuck in their armored boots, but the mage classes had no such luck as the caltrops pierced right through their leather and linen boots and poisoned them with mercury.

They were down to 4 players because 2 died from the poison.

But 2 of the 4 were missing as Cpt.Bling and his maid couldn't find them anymore.

Suddenly heard 2 deathcries and their mates healthbar in the group menu vanished.

"What is this dungeon?" Cpt.Bling asked in despair as they suddenly heard a clicking.

Out of reflex they jumped on the ground just before the were impaled by a silver bolt.

They turned around and saw an incarnation of the devil himself and were momentarily stunned by fear but Cpt.Blings maid reacted and told him to run away as she sprinted to what they thought was the boss to buy her young master some time but Cpt.Bling could only watch as the machine blocked the maids attacked with a shield which showered her with hundreds of shrapnells which killed her instantly.

And Cpt.Bling ran he ran faster than he ever did he just wanted to leave this hell and ended in a 200m corridor without anything in it except a 3m tall machine with some pipes in hand.

Suddenly Cpt.Bling heard an increasingly fast spinning sound and cried despairing:

"THE DEMON WASN'T THE BOSS ... WHY..."

His vision turned into an ocean of flying shrapnell followed by neverending blackness...
