Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

Later, Fang Rui recalled his gains from the previous world: the authority belonging to the gods.

Seriously?! Even the gods from another world are hostile?

"Anyway, it's nothing, and it's very advantageous for me. If I hold on a little longer, I should be able to earn enough money!"

"Speaking of which, what is the exchange rate for magic stones?"

After a moment of silence, Fang Rui looked at the newly appointed floor owner and said in a low voice, "Hold on a little longer!"

With a punch, the force of the blow tore the monster apart, and the flames spread once again.

"The monster has gotten a little stronger."

"Where will the upper limit be? Can it reach the level of a god?"

"I'm very curious! But the speed at which I become stronger is a bit slow. I don't have that much free time, I'll just have to wait!"

Perhaps it was Fang Rui's overly relaxed attitude that caused the dungeon to become increasingly enraged, with the tremors becoming more and more noticeable and the monsters growing stronger at an accelerated pace.

At the same time, as the tremors intensified, people on the ground felt the tremors noticeably and looked surprised.

The person, or rather the god, who felt the tremors most clearly was Freya, the goddess of beauty, who lived at the top of the Tower of Babel.

"You fool who's gone into the underground city, aren't you planning to come out?"

The wine in the glass spilled out, wetting her skirt and making Freya's face turn ugly.

"Really..."

With that, Freya chose to leave the Tower of Babel.

Let's wait until the idiots in the dungeon come out, or until we return to the realm of gods before coming back!

The other gods have also noticed the anomaly and are exchanging information to find the cause of the underground city's tremors...

Before the gods could ascertain the truth, the underground city had already stopped trembling.

Chapter 352 Conversation with Takemikazuchi

The salesperson at the Hephaestus Familia's weapon shop hadn't changed, so he recognized Fang Rui immediately when he saw him.

"Welcome back, guest!"

As he spoke, his gaze shifted to the two cloth bags Fang Rui was carrying, and he immediately raised an eyebrow...

"This is the deposit. How long will it take to forge the weapon?"

In response to Fang Rui's question, the salesperson replied, "Within a month!"

A weapon with the attribute of "indestructibility" is already a top-tier weapon. Even if a god were to forge it, it would take several days.

As for higher-level weapons, they can't be bought with money; it depends on whether Hephaestus is willing to forge them. If the relationship is bad, then it's completely impossible...

"One month..."

After thinking for a moment, Fang Rui nodded slightly: "Then I'll come to pick it up in a month. Do I need to register?"

"Of course we need it!" The sales clerk took out a register from the counter, quickly wrote a note, kept one half in the shop, and left the other half in Fang Rui's hand.

After putting the note into his storage ring, Fang Rui left the weapon shop and wandered around the city...

The atmosphere on the street was a little different than before; there seemed to be a slight tension, just a little, not much...

Are you discussing the unusual tremors in the underground labyrinth?

'I didn't expect the impact to be so widespread; this is not good!'

'I'm very interested in underground labyrinths. What if every time I enter an underground labyrinth, it causes a tremor...'

'Hmm! This is bad! Very bad~'

'We need to think of a way...'

Thinking this way, Fang Rui began to consider the similarities between himself and the gods who lived in Orario.

He doesn't possess a divine body or divine blood, but he does possess the authority that belongs to the gods...

Does it also react to the authority of otherworldly deities?

Or perhaps it was because of the gods from another world that they reacted so strongly?

Let's explore other methods first, and then consider entering the dungeon!

Whether staying for a long time or just a short while, one needs a place to stay.

Thinking this through, Fang Rui realized that he still had a considerable amount of money left, enough to buy an ordinary house.

but……

Being neighbors with a clan, or rather, with a business run by a clan, would be helpful for his investigation of the underground labyrinth.

'The Hephaestus Familia is quite good, and the Loki Familia is not bad either...'

'Why not buy a place to live near the Loki Familia's encampment, and a shop near the Hephaestus Familia's?'

I'm not sure if I have enough money, let me go ask first!

Thinking this to himself, Fang Rui's gaze fell on a barbecue stall, or more accurately, a meat grilling stall, on the street.

Arriving at the barbecue stall, Fang Rui pretended to look at the food for a while before saying, "Boss, give me two portions of everything."

"Please wait a moment!!!" Upon hearing this, the owner of the barbecue stall immediately perked up, his voice filled with barely concealed excitement.

Watching the barbecue stall owner begin cooking, Fang Rui didn't waste any time and directly asked the question that had been bothering him: "Boss, do you know where the Loki Familia's base is?"

"Hmm? Loki's Familia?"

The middle-aged man paused for a moment upon hearing this, then, as if making a connection to something, he advised, "Young man, do you want to join the Loki Familia? It's one of the strongest Familias in Orario, and the requirements are very high! It's not so easy to join."

"No, I heard that the area around the Loki Familia is quite safe, and I'm planning to buy a house there."

Fang Rui explained that he had no interest in joining the Loki Familia, mainly because it was too troublesome.

"Buy...a house!" The barbecue stall owner fell silent, unsure of what to say.

I just thought to myself, "Is this what rich people are like?!"

Not only was the barbecue stall owner hit hard and fell silent, but the people nearby also fell silent, feeling bitter, and their thoughts were not the same.

Later, the barbecue stall owner, who had recovered, told Fang Rui in detail how to get to the Loki Familia's residence.

After some time, Fang Rui took the paper bag handed to him by the barbecue stall owner. The aroma of barbecue wafted into his nostrils, and Fang Rui raised his eyebrows slightly, somewhat surprised.

It smells delicious!

He muttered something to himself and turned to leave, but then he noticed an empty stall next to the barbecue stand.

Curious, Fang Rui asked, "Why is it empty there?"

"Oh~" Following Fang Rui's gaze, the barbecue stall owner said, "That's usually Hestia's stall, but she's not here today..."

So it was reserved specifically for her...?

Satisfied with his curiosity, Fang Rui turned and left, heading towards the location of the Loki Familia.

The Loki Familia resides in a residential area with relatively few shops. There are some small Familias, mostly support-oriented, as well as some merchants. The Loki Familia frequently embarks on expeditions, each yielding substantial rewards. Each expedition requires the preparation of considerable supplies, which is precisely what the merchants value…

"There are vacant houses! And they're right next to the Loki Familia!"

"Huh? How come it's so dilapidated?!"

Looking at the dilapidated house, Fang Rui could see the damage and said thoughtfully, "It looks like it was smashed."

As he spoke, Fang Rui turned his gaze to the Loki Familia's encampment on the first floor and nodded slightly.

'I can guess what happened!'

Muttering to himself, Fang Rui arrived at the dilapidated main entrance. After looking around for a while, he found an old piece of paper pasted on the wall, which contained the contact information of the homeowner.

After negotiating with the homeowner for a while, Fang Rui bought the house at an extremely low price and then hired someone to renovate it...

"So...where am I staying tonight?!"

Looking at the increasingly bustling street, Fang Rui paused for a moment before saying, "Let's find a hostel to stay in for the night!"

A day should be enough to clean and tidy up a room.

As he spoke, Fang Rui walked along the street, looking for a slightly better hostel.

After finding a hostel, we started looking for a restaurant.

Perhaps because of its high-end status, even ordinary ingredients tasted quite good, so Fang Rui decided to eat more.

The most famous restaurant in Orario seems to be called...The Abundant Mistress.

As dusk approached, the "Abundant Mistress" was bustling with activity. Perhaps due to the unusual occurrence of the underground labyrinth today, the shop was packed with people, almost all of whom were discussing the matter.

Perhaps it's because there's not much to talk about.

Thinking about this, Fang Rui went to the bar, told the owner, and ordered two specialty dishes.

Afterwards, Fang Rui sat down at the bar, glancing around at other spots in the store, observing the environment and the customers.

Most people have no recollection of it, but a few people can match it with certain characters in their memory.

A silver-haired werewolf sat on the left side of the shop, near the corner of the street, drinking alone.

On the right side of the shop, near the bar, a black-haired woman with a ponytail and an eye mask, dressed in a Japanese style, was also drinking alone, looking somewhat depressed.

A man dressed in a particularly traditional Japanese style, unlike the previous two, was accompanied by two others: a burly young man with a serious face and a boy whose eyes were covered by bangs.

Apart from that, I have no recollection of the others.

To be precise, I had a relatively clear impression of the first two people, while I found the latter three somewhat interesting, but I couldn't say I had a real impression of them, since their characteristics were rather vague.

These five people were no ordinary individuals. Fang Rui made no attempt to conceal his gaze, and they easily noticed his stare, turning their heads to look at them one after another.

Facing five pairs of eyes, Fang Rui smiled slightly and raised his hand in greeting.

"Tch!" The silver-haired werewolf curled his lip and looked away.

The woman with the ponytail looked thoughtful, as if recalling something, but quickly gave up thinking about it. She nodded slightly and looked away, seemingly lost in thought.

The young man, dressed in a traditional Japanese style, seemed quite interested in Fang Rui and extended an invitation: "Brother, would you like to come over for a drink?"

Upon hearing the young man's invitation, the two people sitting with him immediately looked surprised.
