Meet the principal

The layout of the restaurant in Rainbow Tower is different from other restaurants. ＷＷＷ.SUIMENG. lā

On the mainland, most restaurants have several tables. Everyone sits around their own table. The waiter brings the food from the kitchen, and the diners enjoy it.

But in Rainbow Tower, the kitchen and dining table are integrated.

For example, the restaurant that Reiner and the others are coming to now has only one table, but it is very huge and circular. On the inside of the table, there is only a mage wearing a chef's top hat. He stands in the middle, with The hands of the mage control each kitchen utensil, and the heated iron plate behind the table is used for cooking. The fresh ingredients are processed and can be served to the diners' plates immediately, which is novel and interesting.

"Hello, are you two?"

It was dinner time now, and most of the place in the restaurant was already filled with customers. Reiner and Claire found a seat close to the chef and sat down. The waiters on the side immediately came over to entertain them.

You can see quills and notebooks floating around him, and he must be a mage or mage apprentice.

"Yes, is this a la carte service?"

Reiner asked, the reason why they chose this restaurant was because the cooking style of this restaurant was very special when Claire saw it through the glass. Reiner didn’t have much research on the taste, but looking at the endless flow of customers in the store, Presumably it won't be too bad.

"It's like this, we can order here, or you can order a buffet. For the buffet, you can choose from the menu without limit. The time is limited to two hours. The price is four silver coins per person. It also supports payment with academic points. The price is ten One academic point."

The waiter seems to recommend the buffet style. Although it is more expensive for four silver coins, the menu is basically fresh seafood and some high-end meats. They probably think that guests will not eat much in two hours in the Teppanyaki style. , so we have such a package.

“Wow, buffet!”

When Claire heard unlimited, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes, we prefer the buffet."

The waiter was stunned for a moment and looked Claire up and down, thinking that such a slender girl couldn't eat much. Reiner also looked like a decent person and wouldn't wolf down things like some muscular men, so he specifically recommended the buffet. .

"Then let's do this."

Reiner nodded,

Ask the waiter to place your order.

The waiter, who was somewhat confused, took the order and handed it to the chef in the middle. He did not expect that this was the beginning of the nightmare.

I saw Claire eating the food on the plate at an amazing speed, whether it was lobster, lamb chops, cod, sausages, fried noodles, risotto, chicken legs, all the food, regardless of whether it was high or low, would not be on Claire’s plate. Staying for more than ten seconds, her mouth was like an abyss, swallowing everything on the table.

The other diners couldn't help but stop their conversations and stare at Claire, as if wondering when she would reach her limit.

The waiter was sweating. Lena didn't mention it. The food Claire ate by herself was equivalent to the weight of five hungry adult men. He had never seen a woman who could eat like this.

If it were another restaurant, they could actually deliberately slow down the cooking speed and stop the loss in time, but the chef of this restaurant is standing in front of the diners and still uses magic to cook, so there is no way to deliberately slow down.

Seeing that two hours had passed, Claire had already eaten half of the food that the restaurant had reserved for tonight. She stood up, not looking full, and even feeling a little unsatisfied.

"How was your meal?"

Reiner asked after paying.

“The taste is pretty good, but the key is that the quantity is quite sufficient. Let’s eat here again next time.”

Claire commented like this, causing the entire restaurant's service staff and chefs to shiver.

The two of them left here and walked to the street under the watchful eyes of everyone in the restaurant.

If you are in a city, at first glance, the Rainbow Tower is no different from other cities. Only a few tall towers in the distance remind people that this is a city of mages.

But in Reiner's eyes, this city is full of magic.

It is not candles or kerosene lamps that light the way, but lights powered by magical electricity.

What can be seen everywhere on the road is not a carriage, but a type of transportation called a steam carriage developed by the mechanical mages. It does not require horses to pull. Instead, it uses a heating array driven by magic stones to convert water into steam for propulsion. Gears turn to move.

Even if you look carefully, you will find that almost all the people walking on the street are mages. They all have a special notebook floating around them, and the quills automatically write on it.

Reiner had made up lessons beforehand. He knew that this was a short-distance transmission system based on magic. Everyone's notebook could be connected to other people's notebooks. The premise was to know a special, unique magic number for each person. When both sides are connected, After that, when the person on one side writes in the notebook, the same text will appear in the notebook on the other side. In this way, long-distance communication can be achieved.

Of course, this method of communication is limited to the Rainbow Tower Islands. The legendary mages have deployed not only many defensive magics in this area, but also spells that facilitate life.

Just like in the restaurant just now, you can also use academic points to make purchases. Academic points are quite popular in Rainbow Tower as a currency system. Since you don’t have to worry about losing your wallet, and you don’t need to worry about making change when paying, many mages When making daily transactions, they will choose to use academic points to pay.

The payment of academic points also relies on the communication network covered by Rainbow Tower. If you want to spend academic points after leaving here, you can only go through cumbersome paperwork procedures, which is extremely inconvenient.

The public steam carriages walking in the city made whining sounds and passed along the tracks. People were not talking about trivial household matters, but more about magic-related topics.

It’s no wonder that some people say that if you get used to living in Rainbow Tower, you will feel all kinds of inconveniences when you leave here, as if you suddenly entered a primitive society from a civilized society. Although this statement is somewhat exaggerated. , but it does intuitively express the convenience of life in Rainbow Tower.

There are still three days left before the convening of the High Council of the Rainbow Tower, but the Rainbow Tower has already gathered many mages. As an annual grand gathering among mages and a summary of the year, people from various magic association branches will come. Rainbow Tower, plus some business and political figures who came here to visit, the number of people here is more than three times larger than the normal permanent population.

Coupled with a series of major discoveries this year, everyone is looking forward to this high-level parliament.
