Bark Amplifier

Located on either shoulders of the bipedal/quadrupedal dog, they amplify the sound of a dog's angry bark up to 170 decibels of painful screeching. They can leave a muscle head screaming in terror when hearing this echo from a cavern a kilometre away.
The speakers are connected by auxiliary cable to the dog's personal microphone, and built with diamond-class bedrock to increase durability to 50 functioning years, with a 12-unit armor level just for frontal shoulder padding.

Camosmium-armor

Consists of kevlar and osmium padding on the major joints of the dog's body, resembling that of cobblestone. It will take about twenty hits from a diamond pick just to penetrate the armor and reach the skin, but it provides a fast retaliation by the mutt itself. More amounts of osmium is present in the limbs and below the paws to provide stronger stability, with interior springs for unaffected mobility.

Adamantite claws (nicknamed Pupperine)

Made with one of the rarest metals hidden deep in the Earth, the claws attached with the paw rigs provide ultimate laceration penetrating diamond armor with up to 8 life points (Four hearts) damage in full 20-unit (10 armor points) armor potential. Attacks from this is very rapid and leads to uncontrollable bleeding, resulting the intruder in eminent death without medical backup.

Presence Detector

A full set of sensors and fragance emitters located on the breasts of the dog's armor. They are built to overcome blindness in the dark by helping the dog rely on the smells so that it could get around places. This will also trigger behaviour levels to certain targets, such as calmness to a friendly unit and aggression against an intruder. Trained to recognize specific scents, dogs can act efficiently using the emitter, which has an economically high supply of chemicals stored.

Amnesia Syringe

If any victim of the Anubis manages to survive an ordered - or perhaps accidental - assault, the dogs make sure they are neuralized by injecting a small amount of uncontagious neural toxins into any part of their body. The animals and staff of the police are immune themselves to the toxin, so memory may only be lost by the intruders. Whatever happened in the course of the fifteen minutes within the encounter will be lost, only to be replaced by very slight visions of either ghosts or the legendary "chupacabra" in the depths.

Cold Fusion Power Core Mk. II

Located directly at the center, the core consists of relatively inexpensive and very efficient cold fusion reactions within 20 circular pixels of the area, which lasts as long as 3 years on continuous usage. They can be replenished by stimulating Hydrogen pixels to fuse together to form Helium, releasing massive amounts of energy.

Since the age of the Templars faded several centuries ago, a new underworld order has been introduced. Leaders and ex-Generals around the world have come together in a cavernous meeting in an unknown area to discuss the depletion of Earth's ores and minerals.

The gathering concludes that the most precious and rarest minerals must be preserved as long as humanity chooses to consume them. They formed what was known as the international Underground Preservation Squadron. They have the most sophisticated technology compared to the tech on the surface, including bioweaponry, earthquake emitters and robotic domestication.

Some of the best defense comes from training genetically-enhanced German Shepherd dogs to defend the front lines of caverns and ravines. The second defense, about 15000 kilometres depth will host a series of shockwave mines killing the wandering intruders.

The world will never know the truth of the caverns: how they save your daily necessities from running out too quickly. They, too, research underground only to selectively expose fo the benefit of society on the surface (such as the Hadron Collider of CERN). They sacrifice a few curious lives, to save the rest of the countless lives and the products they live on.

Video Explanation
K9 units underground are deployed by lit pods transported between rock layers and away from cavern walls, where players normally break through for strip mining or ores. If they happen to find a pod, the pod will disintegrate on contact in the form of redstone ore, leaving no trace of the remaining mechanisms contained inside. If a pod contained a K9 unit, however, the player will be attacked by the dog, and given the neural toxin - replacing the image of the pod and the dog with apparitions of ghosts, Chupacabra or Herobrine.

The Commander here is named Kate Bradley, a superior officer in charge of the K9 unit patrols around every department. Using radio communications built beside the speaker breast of the K9, she gives instructions and commands to the dogs.
The robotic voice-over utility also located on the armor of the K9, it is an arithmetic and logical computer measuring the dog's emotions, and sets out the appropriate equipment for the actions undertaken by the mutt, for example, the dog beginning to bark will activate the Bark Amplifier.

Department 13 is a United States underground department located somewhere off Nevada. It protects the most recently discovered Stronghold. It holds a portal no one who set out was ever able to return, hence it had to be studied closely and carefully. It is the most secure platform than the other departments, and holds the most K9 unit pods around the perimeter.
