Speaker 1: Hello, friends from across the nation and around the world.
I'm Martin, and you are listening to Dad's bedtime stories.
Tonight we're headed back into the wizard Craft universe Wizardcraft
three point zero.
Speaker 2: To be exact.
Speaker 1: Because I didn't actually finish the last episode the way
I wanted to, we had a listener suggestion. I played
the listener suggestion, I started the story, and before I
knew it, we were at thirty minutes already and I
had to kind of wrap things up before I even
really got to anything the listener suggested. So for a
little reminder, this is what we're going on, and we
will finally finish the story today.
Speaker 2: Hi, rod In, we are.
Speaker 3: Here just a bedtime I'm the story request for the
wizard Craft three point oh series. We would like your podcast,
and we hope you all get sex fashion you're on,
you find a cave with the booby SAPs, but you
finally get to the end and find an armored car
that has the iron armor. Then and you store from
the Golam King in Stronghold, Oh, and then find I'm
a mysterious egg egg that is pitch black and blue.
It gets hit by the magic sword of the golam
king and as you as he fights you, and then
it hatches into a baby dinosaur that grows into a
Godzilla like a t rex. Look up images of megal
of Godzillasaurus if you want to know what I mean,
and then it evolves into Godzilla. Fully, I hope you
love we love your podcast. I hope you do our story.
Speaker 1: Thank you and Sebastian, well, thank you again to Henry
and Sebastian. Sorry if I tricked you on the last
one and you were like, hey, my ideas are going
to get made into this podcast and then it ended
just before it happened. Hopefully today we'll make that up
by finding that armored car and having that whole ache
thing happen. If you like the podcast, don't forget to
interact with it wherever it is. You're listening, liking it,
rating it, reviewing it, maybe even writing a comment. If
you're on something where you can write a comment, that

bonus content, you can join me on Patreon. Otherwise, we're
going to play one more ad from a possible sponsor.
Now it's time to get as comfy as you can
in that bed, close your rise and imagine yourself doing
what the kid and the story does. If you recall
from the last episode, you were exploring a sort of
underground dungeon or shrine, and after feeding some creatures and
making your way past some booby traps, you finally arrive
in a seafe room where you went to bed, and
you're gonna continue from there. You wake up to the
words wake up floating in front of your mind. You
select yes, and the world comes into view once again.
You find yourself in the safe room. There's two beds,
a little fire, and a whole bunch of food.
Speaker 2: Morning JD.
Speaker 1: You say, nah, good morning, Well, ready to continue our
way through this dungeon shrine thingy JD asks, boy am I?
You respond? You quickly grab some food to eat some
of that delicious whatever it is hanging over the fire.
Then you head to the other platform at the back
of the place. You step on the large circular stone
disc place your hand on the pedestal. It immediately lights up,
and in the blink of an eye, you find yourself
in well, on another one of those strange floating platforms
in the middle of nothingness, and of course there's a
bunch of robot like creatures standing right in front of you,
more floating spheres, charged with electricity and holding swords. One
of them shoots a bolt of lightning towards you. Your
ninja skills immediately kick in. You roll to the side,
gather one of your improved fireballs and shoot it at
the creature that immediately explodes. JD launches himself up into
the air using a telekinetic blast, does a perfect front
flip and slams down on another of the creatures using
his sword. That was a pretty awesome move. You say, yeah,
I've been working on new uses of my telekinesis. You
see a third robot sneaking up behind JD. Reach out
with your own telekinetic power and rip the robot in
all different directions. The robot immediately explodes and drops loot,
a little bit of iron and some gold. You and
JD quickly collect the loot and make your way further
down the platform. You come to a very large gap.
There's simple emptiness between you and a platform far across
on the other side. You see a lever over there
and a sort of drawbridge that's lifted up. At the moment,
it seems that somehow you'll have to activate the lever
to put the drawbridge down. Any ideas you ask JD, Well,
I only really have one idea, Jed says, Ah, try
to catch me with your own telekinesis. If it doesn't work,
what are you talking about? You ask as JD backs
up away from the edge of the platform and then
immediately starts to run towards it. He runs faster and
faster and faster, and when he hits the edge, he
jumps in the air and pushes his hands down towards
the ground. He unleashes another telekinetic blast, only this time
sending himself flying up through the air. He performs a
perfect front flip once again, aims for the ground on
the other side, and seems to use a little bit
of telekinesis to help himself land softly. He lands perfectly
on the other side, moves over to the lever, pulls it,
and the bridge slowly lowers down. Thanks cool moves, you say, yeah,
I've been working on it. You make your way across
the bridge, turn around a corner until you come to
a large door, A large iron door that seems to
be locked. You walk toward it, and one of the
blocks underneath you makes a strange sound.
Speaker 2: Oh was that well?
Speaker 1: It sounded like a musical note of some kind.
Speaker 2: JD says. You continue down the.
Speaker 1: Little hallway up to the door, and some other blocks
make slightly different music notes. Not knowing what they're for,
you push against the door. You look anywhere for a lever,
but you can't seem to find anything. There is writing
on the door, though, or something that looks like writing,
possibly just well music notes, actually a symbol that looks
a lot like a treble clef, and a whole bunch
of lines with little dots moving up and down it Uh, JD,
you think the whole key to the door might actually
be a song.
Speaker 2: Ah. Maybe you take.
Speaker 1: A closer look at all of the little stones that
made noises on your way over, and you see that
each one is marked with a musical note.
Speaker 2: Of its own.
Speaker 1: You cross reference the notes on the stones on the
ground with the notes on the door. Maybe we just
have to play the song. It doesn't look too hard.
You and j D work together to try to play
the song.
Speaker 2: Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo. Man, was that
hot cross buns?
Speaker 1: JD says, just as he finishes the last note and
the door almost magically breaks open. I think it was
you say, Let's go check out what's on the other side.
You and JD make your way through only defined a
gigantic prize room or storage facility or something like that.
The whole place is filled with all sorts of different treasures.
There's a mountain of gold and jewels off to one side.
There's a random egg sitting in the middle. There's well,
what looks to be an armored car. It seems a
little out of place in the wizard Craft universe, but
it does look pretty cool. There's suits of armor and
weapons lining the entire place, and all sorts of different
potions and books and gadgets. Oh can we take whatever
we want?
Speaker 2: You ask? You can try, A voice says from behind you.
Speaker 1: You quickly turn around to see a man wearing black
and red armor carrying a blue glowing sword. I see
you've made your way through one of my shrines, A
lot of your shrines. You made this place? Well, I
didn't exactly make it. No. I found it and I
defeated it, and then I decided to create a short
cut to this here price room and use it to
protect my things from other people people like you. I
even surrounded the entrance with some golams to sort of
slow people down. But it seems that you've made your
way through any ways.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, I'm sorry about that.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 2: Who who are you? Exactly? You ask?
Speaker 1: Well, some people who know me well call me Gary,
but to everyone else, I'm known as the Golam King.
The Golam King, you say, the very one, and as
far as I can tell, you're that kid who's been
creating new village in my territory. I even heard you
destroyed some of my golams and freed some of my prisoners.
I believe it's time to pay for your mistakes and
to learn who really rules this kingdom, which is me
by the way I rule it. The Golam King lifts
his left hand, which sparks with electricity, and shoots a
bolt of lightning towards you and j D. You both
jump in opposite directions, roll on the ground, and face
him for battle. You summon your sword in one hand
and one of your improved fireballs.
Speaker 2: In the other.
Speaker 1: You think that can hurt me? My armor is far
too impressive for such things. You fire the fireball directly
at him, but it hits some sort of energy field
or shield surrounding him.
Speaker 2: See what did I tell you?
Speaker 1: The Golum King unleashes another blast of lightning. You dive
out of the way and roll behind the armored car.
JD does the same. I'm getting tired of this, the
Goldam king says. Then he raises both of his hands
up in the air. All right, my friends, time to
get rid of these two. The ground rumbles, and stone
and iron arms start.
Speaker 2: To pop out of it.
Speaker 1: Goldams of all different kinds crawl straight out of the
ground and surround you and JD.
Speaker 2: Ah, what do we do now? JD asks we get
out of here? You say.
Speaker 1: You slowly open the door to the armored car and
quietly crawl inside. You move over to the driver's seat,
and JD climbs in beside you. You check the ignition,
and luckily he left the keys in the thing.
Speaker 2: You turn the keys.
Speaker 1: The engine roars to life, and you hit the gas
as quickly as you can. Luckily, the thing has a
big ram on the front of it because you plow
directly into a couple rock golums. You turn the wheel
to the left, skid around in a circle, and well
try to aim for anything that looks like it might
be an exit to this place. Hey, that's my car,
the Goldum King says, as he uses another bolt of lightning.
It hits the car, but the metal cage around the
thing seems to sort of absorb the blast. You zig
zag around the large room, trying not to hit anything
too badly. You slam into some golumps. You run into
a pedestal that's holding some sort of vague The pedestal
breaks and the egg flips and lands in the bed
of the truck. Ah okay, you say, steering around the
place trying to find an exit.
Speaker 2: Ah.
Speaker 1: Once this thing in the middle, JD asks, looking up
at the ceiling and seeing like a little opening you
can crawl into. Let me check it out. He crawls
up into the large opening. Hey, it's like a blaster
station or something like that. Man, there's even a sea
and controls. Let me see what I can do here.
JD crawls into the seat and a laser gun. Words
to life cool and you can spin around three hundred
and sixty degrees. JD aims the laser cannon at one
of the golums. Press is a big red button, and
a huge blast of red laser shoots out of the
cannon and immediately destroys the golum. Ah. I think this
is gonna be helpful, JD says. You soon spot a
ramp that leads up and around the cavern. All right,
we're gonna head for this. It looks like it might
be our way out. JD continues to aim and blasted
golams as you steer the gigantic armored car around a
corner and up a large ramp that winds around the cavern.
Speaker 2: You make your way around, and around and around.
Speaker 1: Until you finally come across a large circle that's glowing
with some sort of light. A large circle you can
only hope is some sort of portal. You hit the
gas head straight for the glowing circle as JD continues
to unleash laser fire behind you and blast through.
Speaker 2: In a flash of light, The car flies out.
Speaker 1: Of another portal in a completely different location and onto
the ground. You're clearly back on the surface, but well,
you seem to be in the middle of some sort
of castle or kingdom.
Speaker 2: Well, it's that thing.
Speaker 1: A guard wearing very similar armor to the Golam king says,
pointing at the armored car. Yes, the King's armored car,
but I don't think it's the king driving it. Eh,
get him, the man commands, and almost immediately, a whole
bunch of goldams, some made of gold, some made of iron,
some made of what looks like cream diamond begin to
descend upon the car. You hit the gas again and
blast down the road straight towards something that looks a
lot like a gate.
Speaker 2: JD. Any chance you can deal with the gate on it?
Speaker 1: JD says, spinning the laser around, pointing it directly at
the gate and unleashing another powerful blast. The gate instantly
blows straight off its hinges, and you drive straight through
the thing. You almost seem to be in the clear
when a powerful blast of lightning shoots down in front
of you, and the Golam King materializes out of nowhere.
Give me back my iron armored car, he says, lifting
his sword up in the air and blasting a strange
blooms stream of light towards you. Only it's strangely sort
of curves upward over the armored car and hits the
egg instead. You look behind you, and the egg starts
to glow. Then it starts to crack, and then a
sort of god still like creature breaks out.
Speaker 2: Of it in the back of the car. What do
we do?
Speaker 1: JD asks. Instinctively. You slam down on the brakes, bringing
the armored car to an almost sudden stop. Luckily for you,
a little dinosaur creature isn't strapped in. It flies up
over the car and lands on the ground in front
of you. Only it continues to glow, and it starts
to grow larger and larger and larger, until it's well,
rather gigantic, a giant even. I'd like to see how
you deal with this one, the Golden King says. You
hit the gas on the armored car again, and you
turn to the right and try your best to get
far away from the gigantic godzilla like dinosaur creature that's
now chasing after you and shaking the earth beneath the
car with every steph JD, any ideas you ask, Well,
we get blasted with lasers, JD says, spinning around in
his little turret and unleashing a blast of laser directly
at the godzilla like creature's chest. The laser hits and
does very little, although it does seem to annoy the creature.
He fires blast after blast after blast, but none of
them really seem to do much. All Right, Plan B,
what's Plan B? You ask, I'm gonna hit this other button.
JD presses another button on the cannon, completely unsure what
it does, and a huge spike with a rope on
the end of it shoots out and sticks right into
the godzilla creature's leg. What was that, you ask, Mah,
some sort of grapple or something. A grapple that gives
me an idea, you say, and you immediately turn the
wheel to the left. Why are we heading back towards
the creature? JD asks, Uh, we're not. We're just gonna
tie up its legs. Oh good idea. JD continues to
unleash laser fire. He hits the creature and the eye,
the ear, the mouth, the chest, all of it just
seems to annoy the thing. And you drive the car
around and circles around again and again and again until
the line starts to tighten and pull the creature's legs together.
The creature roars as his legs snap together, he loses
balance and falls over. You hit the gas, trying to
get out of the way of the fall zone and
make it just in time. The creature smashes into the
earth beside you. JD hits another button that apparently releases
the line, and you blast off in the other direction.
Another flash of lightning shoots down in front of you,
and the Golam King appears again.
Speaker 2: You're not getting away that easy, he says, aren't we.
Speaker 1: JD asks, pointing the laser directly at him and then
aiming down a little bit. A blast of laser hits
the ground beneath the Golam King, instantly creating a large
crater and leaving nothing for the king to stand on. Ah,
the king says, as he falls into the crater. JD
continues to blast the ground on every side of him,
causing rocks to fall in and well hopefully slow the
king down a little bit, allowing you to get away.
You lift up your wrist, display your map and see
where you are in relation to your village. You see
that the shrine you originally entered is pretty much halfway
between where you are and where you need to be. Luckily,
you left your mounts there and you'll be able to
pick them up. You press the gas down all the
way and fly across the countryside. The armored car blasts
through pretty much anything, and while the roads aren't really
made for it, this thing seems to be made to
go off roading. You find your way down to a
little dirt trail and well you begin rally racing, taking
corners at amazing speed, sliding around past trees and well
straight up blasting through some of them. The armored car
barely seems to know the difference. Soon you arrive at
the shrine. You hit the brakes and skid the car
around the side. You open up the door and run
out towards the mounts. You quickly unleash both of their ropes. Ah,
we'll see you guys at home. Get there quickly. The
dragon looks at the giant hawk. They both gnad and
take to the air. You jump back in the vehicle,
slam the door shut, and hit the gas again, making
your way through a whole bunch of trees until you
eventually find a winding road again. You follow your map
all the way back to the mountain village. As you approach,
you see that the wall is pretty much finished being constructed.
You come to a stop just outside the thing, roll
down the window and stick your head up out of
the vehicle. Hey, Rocky, open the doors, you say, understood,
one of the rock Golum's answers. He then starts winding
a rope up, which causes a large door to open.
You drive the armored car through and park it just
outside the town hall. Gus rushes out to meet you.
Speaker 2: Well, what is this thing? Some sort of horseless carriage? Uh?
Speaker 1: Something like that, you say to Gus. You turn off
the ignition, step out and throw Gus the keys. But
these somewhere safe in the you know, town storage or whatever,
only allowed JD or I to access them. Oh, yes,
perfectly understood. Oh and put everyone on guard duty for tonight.
I think we lost the guy, but well, just to
be safe, he.
Speaker 2: Could probably use some extra guards. Ah, it will be done.
Speaker 4: Did you upset any one important anything like that? Gus asks, Uh, Well,
he called himself the goldam King, I think, and he
seemed pretty upset that we took his, uh, his armored car.
So yeah, we should definitely be cautious, you say, ah,
the Golden King, Gus says, almost looking as though he's
going to faint. That's what I said.
Speaker 1: You make your way back to your little house in
the center of town. You open the door and immediately
lay down in the bed. You pull the covers up
to your chin, realize that you're still wearing your armor,
and allow it to reabsorb into your inventory, which I'll
almost immediately makes everything more comfortable.
Speaker 2: A prompt appears, Sleep.
Speaker 1: You select yes, and immediately a wave of fatigue passes
over your body. Your arms and legs relax, and your
body sinks down deeper and deeper into the mattress, and
before very long at all, you find yourself drifting off
to dreams of new things and new adventures to come.
Speaker 2: Good night. Everyone must.
Speaker 5: Never Union NAMCO in.
Speaker 2: New yor.
Speaker 5: More than Union, no no thing.
Speaker 1: M MO
Speaker 2: In New
