Simulation: Starting from Under One Person

"So... this divine gathering was to warn me?"

"Probably." Takemikazuchi didn't give a sure thing.

"This is so boring~" Fang Rui complained.

'No, what exactly are you expecting?'

A bead of cold sweat clung to Takemikazuchi's forehead; he was utterly helpless.

"Don't cause trouble! The Divine Assembly is held to facilitate communication between the gods."

"Don't worry, I have no interest in causing trouble." Fang Rui reassured Jian Yulei, as he was not one to seek trouble.

Shortly afterward, the meeting officially began, and everyone took their seats. The first step was the usual process of the adventurers choosing their names.

Some gods seem to have chosen names intentionally, full of wicked humor, while others, especially the gods of the adventurers' kin, take naming very seriously.

"How boring!" Fang Rui commented.

"Don't say that! I think it's quite fun!" As a person who enjoys having fun, Loki is naturally keen on giving adventurers names, full of witty and unique names.

Hestia, however, didn't get involved. She ate and chatted with her friends, including Hephaestus, who also had no interest in naming people.

Hephaestus was one of Fang Rui's targets, and he made no attempt to hide it; he was simply after Hephaestus's forging techniques.

Noticing Fang Rui's gaze, Hephaestus cast a questioning look, which met Fang Rui's eyes. He nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

'Never mind, I'll talk to her after the meeting!'

After naming all the adventurers, the gods will proceed to the second phase, concerning Fang Rui's violation of the rules.

Fang Rui's response to this was...

"Do you want to know how to partially break the seal?"

Some of the gods were tempted, but a very small minority, after all, some gods were extremely willful and dissatisfied with Orario's current rules.

The other gods remained unmoved. Since they had come to the mortal realm for fun, breaking the seal would mean losing a lot of enjoyment...

"We need your promise that you will never break the seal again, nor will you spread the method to break the seal."

Freya, the goddess of beauty, spoke these words as a representative, and the other gods had no objections. Even if they did have objections, they dared not voice them.

"can!"

Fang Rui had no objections. His mechanical puppet was nearing completion and possessed top-tier combat power in Orario. It would be fine even without using his own strength.

Seeing Fang Rui agree so readily, everyone's expressions became somewhat strange.

Well, it went a little too smoothly!

However, it's a good thing that they agreed.

The gods did not dwell on this matter, but instead discussed the next thing...

Overall, nothing important happened, and the entire meeting was quite boring. Some of the gods chatted the whole time without paying attention to what was being discussed.

Fang Rui and Hestia switched places, and Fang Rui discussed forging techniques with Hephaestus. At first, Hephaestus didn't pay much attention, but after talking for a while, he found that Fang Rui had a high level of skill and a wide range of knowledge.

So the two began to discuss it seriously...

The two were still discussing even after the meeting ended...

If Hestia and Loki hadn't reminded them, the two might have lost track of time and continued their discussion there.

"Let's continue our discussion at my place!" Fang Rui requested.

Hephaestus chose to accept. There were very few craftsmen who could communicate with her, especially since most of them had already been communicated with. Now that she had met someone she had never communicated with before, Hephaestus was very interested.

The group arrived at Fang Rui's residence, which was under renovation...

The group then moved to the Loki Familia's residence to continue their discussion of forging techniques.

Fang Rui brought out the mechanical puppet and discussed with Hephaestus whether there were any areas for improvement.

It's like borrowing Hephaestus's wisdom for free!

The two began to use their imagination and skills around the mechanical puppet. As the god of craftsmen who could forge divine artifacts, Hephaestus was naturally very strong. He immediately discovered some problems and provided solutions.

Following Hephaestus's suggestion, the strength of the mechanical golems could be doubled.

While it might not completely crush a level 7, it could certainly overpower one.

"What do you think about adding an energy chamber for casting magic?"

“Alright!” Hephaestus nodded gently. “The current design of the mechanical puppets allows them to unleash some skills, but they do not have an energy storage area and cannot cast magic.”

"However, due to size limitations, there is a limit to the size of the magic stones that can be carried. Small magic stones cannot be used for magic a few times, so they are somewhat redundant."

"How about adding some space to expand it?"

"It's not impossible, but there will be some problems with energy allocation."

The onlookers, listening to the conversation between the two, were all completely bewildered, not quite understanding what they were saying.

But I understand that mechanical puppets are very powerful things.

Thanks to their combined efforts, the mechanical puppet was completed by evening, and it was very close to being fully finished.

Meanwhile, since Hephaestus had not returned home to report the news, his family members were somewhat worried, so they summoned Loki's family, who became completely mesmerized upon seeing the mechanical puppets.

The disappearance of the person who went out to find the god made the rest of his family even more panicked. After finding out the news, they did not rush to his door, but instead called a group of people.

Then everyone became spectators, watching Hephaestus and Fang Rui create mechanical puppets.

The weapon shop of the Hephaestus family was closed the next day.

The sudden closure of the weapon shop, which had never been closed before, immediately sparked discussion among the citizens of Orario.

On the third day, the weapons shop was open for business as usual.

Fang Rui and Hephaestus looked at the completed mechanical puppet, and Loki suggested, "How about we send it into the underground labyrinth to try it out?"

“Your suggestion is excellent, and I’m prepared to do the same.”

"Furthermore, breathing techniques need to be put into practice. Ais and the others have already mastered the basics of breathing techniques, so it's time for them to practice in real combat."

Loki nodded in agreement: "You're right. The clan has been spending a lot of money lately. If we don't earn more, I won't even have money to buy alcohol!"

"Isn't this perfect? ​​I can quit drinking while I'm at it!" Fang Rui said.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Loki crossed his arms. "A solution is impossible!"

Ignoring Loki, Fang Rui turned to Finn: "Go and inform the others! Let's go for a walk around the underground labyrinth!"

"it is good!"

As Fang Rui said, they need practice.

They had already agreed to enter the underground city tomorrow, but Fang Rui brought it up today, so let's move it forward!

Soon, a group of people gathered, all of them level 5 and level 6.

Fang Rui took out a monitor and placed it in front of Hephaestus. He then sat down next to Hephaestus, his consciousness entering the mechanical puppet, while he himself fainted and collapsed onto Hephaestus.

Hephaestus trembled slightly but did not push Fang Rui away.

At the same time, the screen displayed a scene inside the Loki Familia's territory.

"What the mechanical puppets see will appear on the monitor in real time. Most gods have never seen the sights of the dungeon!"

Fang Rui's voice came from the mechanical puppet, immediately attracting everyone's attention, and many people showed expressions of amazement.

Everyone was smart, and they quickly understood why this was the case, and they all exclaimed in amazement.

"Well done!" Loki gave a thumbs up.

Hestia stared wide-eyed at the monitor, a little surprised.

Back in the realm of gods, there were similar artifacts that could detect other locations, but after coming to the mortal realm, those artifacts became unusable.

The group then set off for the underground city.

The mechanical puppets look no different from humans; they appear to be just like ordinary humans.

Inside the dungeon...

"Oh! It's so quiet!"

"The last time I entered the dungeon, the entire dungeon was like boiling water, extremely volatile!"

The person accompanying him gave an awkward laugh.

At the same time, inside the Loki Familia's base, Hephaestus and the others were watching a monitor, while Fang Rui lay behind them on a blanket.

"So this is what the underground city is like?"

"It doesn't look very good!"

Hestia complained.

Loki stared at the wall where the monster had been born, saying nothing.

Hephaestus looked at some of the ores. There were indeed ores in the dungeon, and they seemed to be renewable and could be brought out, but the problem was that they were difficult to mine.

Monsters continue to be spawned, and the land is exceptionally hard.

Returning to the perspective of the mechanical puppet, it is currently on the first floor. Even those who have just become adventurers will not stay on the first floor, since the first floor is the only way to other floors. There are too many people on the first floor, making it inconvenient for combat.

Upon reaching the eleventh floor, the monsters there are already quite strong, making it a suitable place to practice.

Ais and the others began searching for the monster's magic. Instead of using skills or magic, they combined breathing techniques with sword skills to instantly kill the monster...

Fang Rui also controlled the mechanical puppets, taking down monsters with a single punch.

"No challenge at all! Let's go deeper!"

Bert said this, and the others had no objections, so they arrived at the area where the floor manager was located.

The floor master is quite strong, far exceeding ordinary monsters, mainly because he is very durable.

"I'll come first!"

With that, Bert dashed off.

"Thunderbolt Flash - Twelve Consecutive Attacks!"

Like a golden lightning bolt, Bert circled the floor master three times, and in an instant...
