Wrong, my props refresh every day

Xier's greeting paused subtly for a moment when she saw the visitor.

"Hehehe, it's Miss Xier, you're as beautiful as ever~"

The person who pushed open the oak door was a man of ordinary build.

With the classic hedgehog hair and ordinary looks, almost no one would recognize him if he were thrown into a crowd. He is the second-level adventurer [Extraordinary] Raul of [Loki Family].

Raul walked into the tavern rubbing his hands, and his overly enthusiastic smile made Xier take a step back without noticing.

"There aren't any delicious dishes in the tavern this morning." Xier held the menu in front of her chest, her voice still polite.

Raul leaned closer without noticing, pressing his chest exaggeratedly: "It doesn't matter. As long as I can see Miss Xier, I will die without regrets."

Raul had just raised his hand to grasp Xier's fingers when he suddenly froze. A tangible murderous intent pressed down from above him, more terrifying than the high-level monsters he had encountered in the depths, even surpassing the oppressive feeling brought on by the blond dwarf leader...

On the roof of the tavern, the Level 6 cat-man warrior Allen silently fumbled with his silver spear, his amber pupils flickering in the shadows, and the hairs on his tail stood upright, like a sword unsheathed in the morning breeze...

At this time, the curtain of the backyard door was lifted, and Xing saw a group of people coming in one after another.

Anya glanced at the new guest in the tavern and said, "Hey, isn't this the [Super Ordinary Man]? What are you doing here so early in the morning?"

Raul turned to Hoshimi as if he had been pardoned, and rushed over in two steps to shake the boy's hand: "Mr. Hoshimi! I have something important to talk to you about!"

"W-What's the rush?"

Xingjian said.

Raul gave Xingjian an exaggerated thumbs-up, then pulled out a scroll of parchment from his pocket, unfolded it excitedly, and said excitedly:

"Thanks to our last expedition, after we defeated Black Goliath together, although I didn't reach LV5 like Angie, I awakened a new skill!"

It had been two weeks since we returned from the expedition. Loki had originally updated the bounty for the adventurers back then, but Raul wanted to stay longer in the [Dean Kate Familia] and "share a room" with Miss Amide, so the bounty update was delayed until now...

The other contents on the parchment have been erased, but the latest line has been translated into the language of the netherworld.

Skill: Command Call

·Summon and expand command skills

Expand the transmission range after the volume exceeds the threshold

In melee combat, the range bonus is proportional to the size of the battle.

· Members of the same clan can have long-distance induction

Maximum range is proportional to the user's level

"This is exactly the same as Captain Finn's [Command Battle Voice]! I am worthy of being someone the captain values!" Raul said excitedly.

Finn's [Command War Voice] has the effect of expanding the range of the shout when the volume reaches a certain level and expanding the range of the shout during war.

It has the same purpose as this skill.

"Congratulations, Raul."

Xingjian praised sincerely.

This skill is the same as Lily in the original book.

In the original work, because the [Hestia Familia] had no commander, Lily served as a supporter while serving as the commander of the Familia many times. After experiencing repeated training, she also awakened command-type moves. She and Finn both have special command skills. It can be said that they are worthy of being siblings in their previous life.

If Raul awakens this command skill, he will surely be able to secure the position of captain of the second team in the future.

"whee."

Facing Xingjian's praise, Raul scratched the back of his head embarrassedly, with a bit of silliness in his honest smile.

Looking at the silly look of the [Super Ordinary Man], the black cat girl Chloe sat bored on the high stool, her slender legs drawing lazy arcs in the air. She spread her hands helplessly and said:

"So, you called everyone here just for this, meow~"

"Meow~ It's really boring~"

Anya yawned loudly, revealing her pointed fangs, and spread her hands like Chloe.

She has absolutely no interest in this kind of thing.

"Yes."

Lunova sipped her juice expressionlessly and agreed briefly, also showing little interest in the [Super Ordinary Man].

of course……

If it was the great King Wanjixingjian, the girls present would have happily supported him.

Faced with everyone's lack of interest, Raul scratched the back of his head awkwardly, but suddenly remembered something important. His expression froze, he straightened his back, and said in a suddenly raised voice:

"Actually... apart from this matter, I also want to tell you an important news!"

"whats the matter?"

Xier asked curiously.

Seeing that everyone finally showed interest, Raul was secretly happy, and then said seriously:

"Captain Finn announced this morning that the Loki Family will embark on an expedition in two months. Their goal is to defeat the Level 7, 48th-floor lone maze king, the One-Eyed Demon King, Barol!"

"What!?"

This news really shocked everyone present, and the entire tavern fell silent for a moment.

"[Superhuman], are you telling the truth? The Loki clan is going to challenge the Lone King Barol on the 49th floor of the maze? That Level 7 monster?"

Lunova said with a surprised expression.

"Absolutely true." Raul nodded solemnly and continued, "This is what the leader has announced. For the next two months, the entire clan will be on war preparations. To defeat the One-Eyed Demon King, Barol."

The One-eyed Demon King Barol is the strongest floor master known in the dungeon. Ever since the two strongest clans in the city, the Hera clan and the Zeus clan, left Orario more than a decade ago, no other clan has been able to successfully defeat him alone.

Currently, only the [Loki Family] and the [Freya Family] can reach the 50th floor, but the two major families have always chosen to bypass Baror's territory and go directly to the 50th floor through the safe passage.

And now...

The fact that Loki's family was launching an expedition to attack the One-eyed Demon King, who was at level 7 and had a difficulty level of 8, really shocked everyone present.

Raul was secretly delighted, then turned his gaze to Xingjian and added, "The captain said that this will also be a joint expedition, and the Hephaestus family will also participate."

"Then isn't that Lord Xingjian?"

Black Cat Chloe looked at Xingjian beside her worriedly.

"That depends on the arrangements of the Hephaestus family."

Raul spread his hands, showing a helpless expression, and continued, "But Captain Finn seems particularly interested in Xingjian. He seems to want to meet this genius boy who can single-handedly challenge the master of the hidden floor and has the fastest city upgrade speed."

As Raul finished speaking, Liu, who was cleaning, also glanced at Xingjian unconsciously.

Currently, Liu has not been announced by the [Hephaestus Family], and the Loki Family does not know that she has [transferred] to the Hephaestus Family.

Two months later, if Xingjian really wants to join forces with Loki's family on an expedition to the deep, Liu will also apply to join.

After all, Barol is deep in the 49th floor, a dangerous area, and Liu is worried about Xingjian's safety.

Xingjian thought thoughtfully.

Will we defeat the LV7 One-Eyed Demon King Barol on the 49th floor in two months?

Xingjian was actually looking forward to the joint expedition with Loki's family, because based on the situation of Hephaestus' family, the highest floor they could reach was probably the 37th floor (the deep level).

If we unite with Loki's family, we can go further.

Can……

Now there is only LV3 Xingjian, who is probably of no use against LV7 Barol. Including LV5 Captain Tsubaki, he may appear as a supporter at that time.

The main force in the fight against Baror is still Loki's family.

Expeditions together are currently of little use.

But it's too early now.

Two months later...

Maybe Xingjian can enter the LV4 realm, then it is worth considering.

"So…besides that, is there anything else?"

The joint expedition between Loki's Familia and Hephaestus's Familia was none of her business, so the black cat girl tilted her head and broke the silence.

"Cough cough..."

Raul suddenly put on a flattering smile and rubbed his hands like a shrewd businessman.

"Actually... everyone needs to upgrade their equipment before the expedition... The quality of Hephaestus's equipment is naturally impeccable, but the price... is a bit high. I want to save money for something more meaningful, so I'd like to ask Mr. Hoshimi, a member of the Hephaestus Familia, to introduce me to a reliable blacksmith. Ideally... at a friendly price?"

"Ha! All this time just to haggle, meow!"

The cat girl puffed up her cheeks in anger.

"That's called careful budgeting! Bert said we should spend every penny wisely."

Raul puffed out his chest confidently, but then muttered softly:

"After all, ordinary members like us don't have custom weapons from the Guberniu Familia like the cadres do..."

Xingjian remembered that Welf had complained a few days ago about the lack of orders recently, so he nodded and said:

"No problem, I know a blacksmith with good skills."

"Mr. Xingjian, you're so kind!" Raul excitedly shook Xingjian's hand with one hand, his eyes shining. He gave a thumbs-up, revealing a row of shining white teeth. "Next time, I'll take you to a nice place, the kind... where there are beautiful women... I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

Chapter 98 Raul: Work is hard, reward yourself by going to Happy Street

The Hephaestus family's shop is located in the middle area of ​​the Tower of Babel. The heavy metal door is engraved with the emblem of flame and hammer, symbolizing the authority of the god of forging.

The moment I pushed open the door, a heat wave mixed with the clanging sound of metal colliding hit me in the face, the clanging sound of iron hammering came one after another, and sparks jumped in the air.

Inside the spacious workshop, various weapons and armor were neatly displayed on the shelves, from fine steel swords to mithril light armor, each piece emitting a cold luster. Several blacksmiths were concentrating on hammering the red-hot metal, and sweat was sliding down their muscular arms and dripping onto the hot anvil, making a "hissing" sound.

Raul's eyes were practically glued to the equipment, and he rubbed his hands excitedly. "As expected of the Hephaestus Familia, the workmanship, the material... wow!"

As the largest blacksmithing clan in the city, the Hephaestus clan is not focused on forging high-quality equipment like the [Guberniu clan], but covers equipment for all adventurers in Orario.

Hoshimi led Raul through the workshop and to a forging table in the corner.

Welf Crozo was concentrating on sharpening a longsword, his red hair soaked with sweat and sticking to his forehead.

Sensing someone approaching, the hammer's strikes stopped abruptly. Welf looked up, sweat dripping down his red hair onto the red-hot anvil, making a hissing sound.

“Hey, Xingjian…” Welf’s gaze shifted to the burly man next to him, his eyebrows raised in surprise, “…and there’s a [Super Ordinary]?”

"Welf Crozeau?"

Rau suddenly remembered that the last time he fought against the Black Goliath, it was thanks to Welf's magic sword that they were able to withstand the wave of mid-level monsters, allowing Xingjian and others to focus on how to defeat the Black Goliath.

Because Welf's presence was not as strong as Hoshimi's, Raul often forgot that Welf Crozo, like Hoshimi, was also a member of the Hephaestus family.

The only difference is that Hoshimi is a fighter, while Welf is a blacksmith.

Welf wiped his hands and grinned:

"Yes, it's me."

Although Raul is a bit of a rat in Loki's family, he is one of the very few LV4 second-level adventurers in the entire Orario.

Even in a large family like Hephaestus, his strength is second only to the leader, so Welf has great respect for him.

Raul said excitedly, "We really had the last battle thanks to you! Crozo's magic sword is truly extraordinary."

Welf no longer showed the same resistance as before, but instead revealed a bright smile.

Thanks to the teachings of the Lord God Hephaestus, Welf is no longer opposed to forging the Krozo Magic Sword, because without this magic sword, his fellow clan members, including the cooperating clans, would have been wiped out last time.

Hephaestus was right.

Don't put the life and dignity of your companions on the same scale.

"So, what does the [Super Ordinary Man] want from me? Could it be that the supporter of Loki's family is also here to patronize my business?"

Welf inquired.

"Well, the Loki clan is going on an expedition in two months, and I need a set of equipment that suits me. The equipment we had last time is already in tatters, haha."

Raul patted his scarred breastplate and said.

Welf fetched his measuring tools and slid the metal tape over Raul's body. "What can I do for you?"
