Solo Eating to Overpowered

Episode 335

: Dull!

A mechanical device that pours out steam.

Its size far exceeded X’s expectations.

Each cogwheel was as big as an average building, and the iron bars seen here and there were so high that their ends were unrecognizable.

“Why do we need a device like this?”

Dull!

No matter how much of a mechanical expert you were, you could at least recognize that the mechanical device in front of you was responsible for energy.

Swallowing his surprise, X moved forward. And I witnessed it.

“…What is this underground city?”

Lots of buildings!

It looked as if a major city on earth had been moved here.

The building was lit by mechanical devices, but of course there were no people there.

X couldn’t help but be shocked.

‘Why is this underground city located underground in Xernis?’

Perhaps Jaul didn’t know either. If I had known, I would have told you about it a long time ago.

I racked my brain, but there was no way I could come up with an answer. So, X decided to enjoy this situation for now.

“What should we explore first?”

Let’s take a look!

With a moderate sense of excitement, X walked through the mysterious underground city.

It looked like a replica of an earthly city, but there were differences.

X looked at the ground.

“Are you saying it’s a village on an iron plate?”

The floor on which the underground city was built was not ordinary dirt. It was a steel plate made of cold metal.

X got up and diligently inspected the underground city.

“…Even if I can’t do it, I can still be at least as good as Beneta, right?”

Pabababak!

However, even if I walked with the help of a rope, I could not see the end of the underground city.

As I walked and walked, I passed many buildings and fountains with steam gushing out instead of water.

X was shocked for a moment.

‘How big is this city?’

How much is the cost of iron invested alone?

I can guarantee that more gold was invested than Xernis’ budget for several years. So I began to wonder about the identity of this underground city.

“I think it will be difficult to see the end.”

X turned around and went back the way he came. Meanwhile, I was shaking my head.

No matter how much I thought about it, in the end there was only one possibility. X’s eyes narrowed.

“…Fragments of a collapsed world.”

The entire underground city is a fragment of a collapsed world! If you think like that, all doubts disappear.

‘It is possible to explain that Zawul did not know of the existence of this city and that the Dongle tribe did not discover this underground city. ‘Because Fate’s NPCs are currently unable to properly recognize the fragments of the collapsed world.’

Of course, there were other possibilities. But my intuition told me that this was the most likely one.

Dull!

X stood in front of the giant mechanical device again.

Lightly.

X sighed as he tried to put his hand on it.

“A bad relationship is tougher than beef tendon.”

Gourmet King!

I promised myself that I would forget as much as I had suffered, but… there was a high probability that I would see the past as a fantasy of the king of gourmets.

Is it still possible?

X placed his hand on the huge mechanical device.

Tiroling!

A notification rings without fail.

[The fantasy begins!]

*

Sigh!

X came to his senses due to a deafening roar.

Huge crowd.

The face was full of fear.

‘Where is this anyway?’

Shaking my head.

X shook his head and looked around.

Dull!

A familiar sight.

I could see the underground city I had just seen. But for some reason, I could see a clear sky above my head.

‘Well, in the previous worldview, it was a city on earth?’

A plausible idea.

But X’s guess was wrong.

Slut!

“huh?”

A pigeon skimming over the city. As I looked after the pigeon, I saw a tall mountain. No, to be exact, the top of the mountain was visible!

X opened his mouth in confusion.

“…It’s a floating city?”

It was like that.

The mysterious underground city could fly! When I thought about it that way, I also understood the huge mechanical equipment and the floor that was made of iron plates.

It was absurd. The technology is enough to easily lift a city like this into the sky.

“It’s on a different level from the current Fate worldview.”

Fragments of a collapsed world 29.

In other words, the deleted 29th worldview.

That was the name of the underground city I saw before the vision began.

Anyway, the time has come for the King of Gourmet to reveal himself. Before X could even think about it, a loud cheering sound was heard.

“hot!”

bang!

A man walking in the air without wings. The face glimpsed through the helmet was, of course, that of the Gourmet King.

There was nothing to be surprised about now. X was also more surprised by the equipment he was wearing than the Gourmet King.

“Those aren’t normal shoes, are they?”

Shoes spewing out flames!

Those shoes were allowing the Gourmet King to fly freely.

Greed begins to boil over! Even if I didn’t see the effect, it seemed like it would definitely be a unique item.

‘Was it made with technology from this worldview? Well, it makes no sense to make a single person unable to fly when it is enough to build a flying city. By the way, can this technology be restored?’

Degurrr!

X’s head is rolling. However, X’s brain activity soon stopped.

“…!”

The opponent that the Gourmet King was fighting with.

Because the enemy’s appearance was extremely familiar.

“Someone else…!”

No, to be precise, it was energy. A foreign energy unique to other beings.

The monster in the form of a giant crow appeared to be a creature of another being.

X suddenly couldn’t help but sweat.

‘The Gourmet King was fighting another being here too.’

Well, it’s impossible for the Gourmet King to have any memories of the deleted world view, but…

I thought that the Gourmet King was also a very pitiful NPC. Judging from the visions I had seen so far, it seemed like my previous world view was all about suffering and death.

Bang bang!

An illusion that plays out gradually and rapidly.

The fate of the winner was also revealed.

“The difference is too drastic.”

A gourmet king surrounded by creatures.

The Gourmet King, exhausted from the battle, seemed to have no strength to escape the siege. The crowd in the air city screamed.

Some people calmly waited for death, while others resented the Gourmet King.

“That’s how people live.”

Shake!

Vision starting to blur.

It seemed like the fantasy would end with the Gourmet King’s warrior.

Even if it was a bad relationship, what good would it do to see a familiar face die? This was when X tried to take his eyes off the Gourmet King.

“…Why are you putting me through this ordeal even in this life!”

The Gourmet King’s shouting reached my ears. At the same time, X’s eyebrows twitched.

“You just said this life…?”

The fantasy was over before I could even feel it.

*

Flash!

X opened his eyes.

Degurrr.

X’s rolling eyes. X, who was thinking about something, opened his mouth.

“…The Gourmet King remembered his past life.”

When he heard the word “this life,” X, who was quick-witted, was able to recognize it.

The Gourmet King knows his past life! When I thought about it that way, I began to understand the current Gourmet King’s actions to some extent.

Since I must have lived a life that has been repeated dozens of times, I suddenly felt like my current life might feel futile.

Buck buck.

X scratched his head.

“An NPC who remembers his past life.”

I could tell.

There is no other NPC like this in Fate World! But the thought ended there. X had not forgotten his promise from the past.

“So what do you want me to do?”

My thoughts on him end here!

X wanted to focus on quests and rewards rather than Gourmet King. I can’t avoid it forever, but I wanted to avoid trouble for the time being.

“Let me see.”

Leo Gagalli’s quest had already been successful. The moment you defeated the mechanical angel, the dungeon’s boss monster, you cleared the quest.

In X’s hand was a shining compass.

-Leo Gagali’s Compass (Unique)

A compass used by explorer Leo Gagali. His knowledge is sealed.

Limits: None

Special Effects: The compass points to the location of the most valuable treasure relic dungeon near the user once every 24 hours. If the target is found within the time limit, the effect is immediately renewed.

“…Oh my.”

Indeed, the effect of the great explorer’s knowledge!

It could be said that it was a perfect effect for X, the owner of uncontrollable greed.

Naturally, the compass was currently pointing towards the Machine City.

‘Honestly, it’s true that I’m looking forward to this one more.’

A flying city!

Even if it were a fragment of a collapsed world, wouldn’t the effect still be effective?

Looking at the mechanical device that is still operating normally, I had such expectations.

“I see a lot of levers, so this is the key.”

X, who carefully looked around the device, was able to find the control panel of the mechanical device.

-Fragments of a collapsed world 29 (Quest)

These are fragments of a collapsed and collapsed world. We may be able to reveal the secrets of Fate World.

Special Effects: ?

“…Shall we try pulling it first?”

Naturally, there was no instructions on how to operate it.

Slam!

X pulled the lever fearlessly, like a mechanical genius. Fortunately, pulling one lever did not cause any malfunction or stop the machine.

Instead…

Tiroring!

A notification rang in X’s ears.

“Hehe.”

The corners of X’s mouth rose after checking the message. I quickly rummaged through my inventory. I took out mechanical devices of unknown purpose that had been dropped by monsters in the technology room.

“Of course, if you’re going to use dog poop for medicine, you have to pick it up in advance!”

*

[Recovery rate: 10.4%]

Materials to restore the floating city!

It was a mechanical device imbued with sophisticated technology.

Even though all the mechanical devices they had collected were invested, it was impossible to completely restore the floating city.

That’s why X was roasting Zawl.

“Tech room? Yes, there was a place like that. But a city in the air? I’m not sure about that. “The only things we were developing were mechanical wolves and mechanized infantry.”

Zawl’s puzzled reaction.

X nodded.

‘It looks like a fragment of a collapsed world.’

The floating city was hidden deep inside the technology room.

If it weren’t for the fragments of the collapsed world, it would have been strange not to have noticed.

Zawl asked X.

“So, are you planning to restore the technology room where the essence of Xernis’ technology from the past is gathered?”

“I really need your tech room!”

“Yes, with Xernis’s current labor and funds, it wouldn’t be too much of a stretch. Once you give your approval, we will begin restoration immediately.”

Tiroling!

[Gold needed for recovery: 800,000 gold]

800,000 gold!

“There are tens of thousands of bottles of spices.”

X gave his approval while coughing up blood.

It was unknown whether the floating city, a fragment of a collapsed world, knew the value of more than 800,000 gold, but…

“Technology is what enriches and strengthens a nation. Now I understand what the key is without having to teach anything.

Wasn’t there a mechanical cow among Xernis’s technologies? X had dark intentions like an evil lord.

‘If you can’t save the main shrine with a flying city, you can save the main shrine with a mechanical cow. The era of Xernis, where 24-hour work does not stop, will begin!’
