Arknights: Iron-Blooded Savior

It doesn't take much time for two people to get to the cafeteria, the nearest canteen is one floor below the feet of the two, and you don't even need to take the vertical elevator, but you can easily go down the escalator.

After exiting the door at the end of the escalator, Amia took Rankopel and slowed down as she chatted, but it took a total of more than ten minutes to reach the Rhode Island cafeteria.

"Mr. Rankopel, this is the central canteen of the Rhode Island ship, and usually when it comes to meals, this is the easiest canteen to sit full first..."

And Amia was still happy to introduce some things about the Rhode Island canteen to Rankopel when she arrived at the door of the cafeteria.

According to Amia, Rhode Island doesn't actually have just one cafeteria.

Instead, there were seven canteens in total, and a single canteen would not be able to absorb the dining problems of a large number of Rhode Island garrison operators.

Each cafeteria doesn't vary much in size, except for the occasional change of dishes in different areas, which can accommodate hundreds of people at the same time.

However, dining in the Rhode Island cafeteria is only one of the options, and some operators can also use the premise of safe use of electrical appliances to open their own small stoves in the dormitory.

"It's so big, even if there are many people, it seems empty. Rankopel

and Amia walked inside the cafeteria, observing the surroundings, and at this time it was basically time for dinner, and many people came in the cafeteria one after another.

But even as many people entered, including those who had already sat down, the space still seemed empty.

Rankopel has also seen CG illustrations of a corner of the Rhode Island cafeteria in the game, but it is far from showing the true size of the Rhode Island cafeteria.

As for the structure of the meal, it is very similar to some units or university canteens in the previous life, basically providing different flavors of meals at the window.

There are also some operators pushing some small carts to cook by themselves, and the price is also very fair, limited by the small venue and limited equipment, mainly based on some local snacks.

This behavior was tacitly sanctioned in Rhode Island, where operators were able to give others a taste of their favorite food and an extra income for themselves.

At the same time, it can also allow the diners to choose from a wider range of noodles, a more colorful variety of dishes, and even occasionally be pleasantly surprised to eat some very niche but authentic hometown tastes.

"..."

Because the variety is very rich, plus you have to wait for Fika, all Amia and herself went shopping first.

"This is really selling everything..." The

more Rankopel and Amia strolled, the more wonderful the expression on their faces became, and even felt that this was not so much a cafeteria or even a bit like a food gathering in the north and south.

From small to common scale ball soup, grilled meat steak, fritters, green onion cake, Dongguo sushi, large to uncommon... A whole one that can't tell what kind of prey it is, is directly set up on the campfire and roasted in full.

Some are like roasted whole sheep in a past life... At the other end of the dining window, the busy people are obviously native Sargons, who can be distinguished by their attire and accent.

However, although their cooking methods are quite primitive, everyone is busy and sweating around the campfire, but their faces are also full of happiness.

"This... How much is one?"

looked at the whole prey swirling above the fire, bubbling with oil, and emitting a pungent aroma, and asked Amia the price first with some curiosity.

"About two thousand dragon gate coins, if converted into Rhode Island credits... It's probably over a hundred..."

said Amia as she began to introduce Rhode Island's internal monetary system to Rankopel.

Generally speaking, most store transactions are basically electronic credit points issued by Rhode Island for currency use, and the currency directly recharged into the Rhode Island cafeteria meal card is actually credit points.

Of course, if you use a currency such as Longmen coin, which is widely circulated and has good government credit, it is also possible, but because of different exchange rate problems, sometimes it needs to be calculated, which is more troublesome.

Most transactions are conducted using Rhode Island's internally issued credits.

And there is also a special transaction currency called purchase vouchers, which should be familiar to players of Ark of Tomorrow, which is affectionately called [Red Ticket].

This purchase certificate represents Rhode Island's business qualifications.

Maintaining the operation of Rhode Island requires huge funds and complex raw materials, and the demand is extremely huge, so Rhode Island has a special currency to exchange for the large quantities of materials it needs.

"[Sniffing...] But it's really fragrant... Amia. Rankopel

listened to Amia's introduction, and his nose twitched.

Roasting is the most primitive and pure cooking method of human civilization, and the most essential aroma of the ingredients can be described as a must, sprinkled with a handful of spices, the aroma can explode like a bomb.

"Well, it should be a whole little horned jumper roasted here.

Amia also sniffed the aroma carefully, and said to Rankopel:

"I once had the pleasure of eating with Miss Gavel on vacation to Akahura, and among the rainforest tribes of Sargon, various hunting competitions are often held.

"That time, Miss Garvel could easily carry several times the size of ferocious prey back alone, and the amount of one person was even half of the hunting of all the other tribes combined.

"So the Doctor and I, and Miss Garvel, were then treated as heroes representing the tribe and enjoyed a whole fat prey by a campfire."

"But in ancient times, this treatment ... Only the king chief of Sargon can enjoy it.

"And in the case of a slightly weakened influence and dominance of the king chief in modern times, this is also the highest level of hospitality that the Rainforest Clan can give to guests."

Then, Amia actually asked in a somewhat serious tone,

"Do you want a whole one?"

"Now you are the hero of the whole of Rhode Island, and you fully deserve this treatment." Rankopel

immediately waved his hand and replied:

"Forget it, this size adds up to be larger than my body, and I drank with the iron guards this afternoon, and besides, as far as our words are concerned, one is that we can't finish eating, and the other is that we haven't reached the atmosphere."

"Next time, when everything is settled, call my Iron Guard guys on the way back to Chernoborg, book the fattest one, and eat and drink."

Amia replied:

"Well, that makes sense, Mr. Rankopel.

"But that window also has beast meat skewers that are cut separately and then skewered, and the taste is exactly the same as the whole roasted little horned jumping beast, go buy some and try them?" Of

course, this Rankopel had no reason to refuse, and after walking to the window with Amia, they were ready to start taking a few skewers from the side of the window that had just been grilled and were still steaming.

"By the way, this is a customized meal card for Mr. Rankopel before, there is no limit, if you want to eat something during your station, you can come over at any time."

At this moment, Amia seemed to remember something, and took out a black card of unknown material with the Rhode Island logo from her Rhode Island uniform and handed it to Rankopel.

"That's a good thing, Amia, then I'll accept it unceremoniously." This

thing is equivalent to a free buffet ticket in the Rhode Island cafeteria, and Rankopel of course accepted it with joy.

"Leader, I'm coming! I'm looking for you!"

But just as Rankopel and Amia were about to buy a few kebabs, a voice greeted him from behind him—it was Fika who shouted and trotted towards him.

"Fika, you're here. Rankopel

handed Fika the skewer of beast meat that had just been taken down and was even dripping oil, and then saw him alone and asked, "

What about Miss Earth Spirit?

"Miss Earth Spirit went to the cafeteria on the other side, and her friends over there asked her about something, and after showing me the way, I came to the leader you and Miss Amia.

Rankopel nodded when he heard this, and said to

Fika:

"Is there anything you want to eat, Fika?"

Hearing

this, Rankopel nodded thoughtfully.

"Have you decided what to eat? Mr. Rankopel?

Amia asked Rankopel with a smile.

"Go to that Longmen restaurant, I feel that the food is good." Lan

Koper pointed to a location that had been picked up earlier, not the dining window of the cafeteria, but a mobile cart with four large characters hanging from the Longmen Restaurant.

And the Rhode Island operator who was busy at the Longmen Food Restaurant was a square-faced, elderly uncle of Yanguo.

He sells only a few things in his cart, but they are all freshly made and sold traditional Yanguo noodles such as wonton, xiaolongbao, steamed dumplings, brown sugar steamed buns, and soup noodles.

"Ahhh... It's Miss Amia... What are you and your friends going to eat... Today is considered old Zheng Tou please. As

soon as he saw Amia, Rankopel and Fika coming to the front of the small cart, the boss said enthusiastically in the tone of Yanguo dialect with Jiang Qi's accent.

"This is all right, Master Zheng, everyone wants to live, but we understand your kindness."

Amia replied with a smile, and then looked at

Rankopel:

"Mr. Rankopel, you can order."

So, after calculating the portion of the meal and asking Chef Zheng for three bowls of wonton noodles, two bowls of xiaolongbao and a basin of steamed dumplings, Amia, Rankopel and Fika found a slightly more secluded corner to sit.

Rankopel was just about to start moving his chopsticks, but remembered something:

"Ah... I ordered something to eat, but I didn't order anything to drink... Fika, Amia, what would you like to drink?"

he asked the two as he stood up.

"I listen to you today, Mr. Rankopel.

Amia replied with a smile.

"Me too, leader. Fika

also lost the choice of ideas to himself.

"Okay, I'll take a look. Rankopel

was completely expected to hear the two of them say this, and he began to walk alone by the nearby window where there were drinks or by the cart of the operator's private cook.
