Can Arknights dream about the Knights of the Round Table?

Alas, no—

This, this, this, this...who is bringing whom out to the celebration?ah? ! !Am I not the one being asked?Why are these four so good? !And the last time we met...when was the last time? !We didn't see you giving him anything when we were having dinner, Gabriel...

Metatron was increasingly unable to understand how Gabriel took him out of the iron box and threw it away dotingly, and how he treated him completely differently.

"Damn it, these four people won't join forces to mess with me, right?!"

When he thought of this, and then looked at the backs of the four people over there who were gradually disappearing while talking and laughing, Metatron's hand holding the cigarette couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Glorious Rutland, no one can stop the gunfight: 11 After that, our celebration began to sublimate

Probably considering that there should be a shaded place to rest in the hot weather, the venue for this celebration was deliberately chosen on the outskirts of the forestry base with sufficient tree resources.

As for the wilderness that was specially designated for the celebration, even though it was still several hours before the evening actually started, it was still crowded with people and filled with noisy noises.

The towering tower built to respond to emergencies, including but not limited to rescue, power supply, and maintenance of security, reflects the lower world with its mirror-like white walls. The sun that shines several times seems to heighten the expectations of people who are eagerly anticipating the opening.

There are many stalls that have been set up early in the morning, and every one of them is bustling with people.

Along the way, there are regular stalls selling various Rutland specialty desserts. The nearby shops and taverns display their products in front of the shops. There are even some interested Sakota people, imitating the Dongguo affiliated with Dayan. It is customary to sell takoyaki and fried noodles to satisfy the needs of citizens who have not had time to enjoy lunch.

Although I understand that the taste is just that, when they are actually made and placed in front of my eyes, my appetite will be unexpectedly aroused; the reflection of sauce and oil on fried noodles and other dishes tied in transparent packaging with rubber bands The presentation is moist and juicy, wonderfully appetizing.

No matter where they go, no matter what race they are, they are laughing loudly and exchanging sparkling looks of joy.

Such is the summer in Rutland.

Infected by nature that seems to be engraved in the genetic DNA of the Laterans, even those who are forced to come to the scene by their families will become happy even if they are willing to go out.

The celebration and transition to the summer season is about to begin.

——Of course, Metatron and the others are planning to open a complex store selling a variety of goods.Therefore, although you have taken advantage of your authority to prepare the building and its equipment and resources in advance, you still need to prepare some goods for opening the store.

For example, Gabriel, who plans to sell two types of pizza, 'Neapolitan' and 'Margherita', needs to take advantage of this to start kneading the required dough to avoid shortages during the evening peak period.

The same goes for Ulie and Raphael, who plan to work together to sell puffs, cakes, tarts and other desserts.

I have to say who would have had an easier preparation during this lead-up period, it would be Metatron; after all, as a Jinchūriki of ice cream and shaved ice, preparing and making them in advance will only leave their souls waiting here. Loss in a few hours (his own words), only freshly made and eaten ice cream is the best ice cream, I am sure!

But as someone other than a direct manager of the joint venture, it was a bit boring for Ozwald who was more of a hands-on and visiting person.

"Actually, you can take Miss Ravshini out for a walk first, and then come back around 04:30, that's no problem. After all, except for the Metatron guy who needs your ice supply, we have the manpower for service. There are volunteers from the medical column coming to help.”

Looking at the big tail holding his own with both hands and swinging it around, he sat on the stool with eager eyes and watched the pedestrians coming and going. He felt like he would be chasing the male Drake who was biting and circling his tail in a moment. Ulie made such a suggestion.

But leaving the busy guy alone and running out with the girl to play or something, Ozwald still couldn't do such shameless things.

"How about I come and help with something?"

"That's okay. After all, I remember Mr. Ozwald, you opened a restaurant in Casimir, right? Do you want to join us? I just happened to be thinking about adding cookies and biscuits to the sales list." Raphael smiled respond.

"It's not you Rutland, Casimir's normal restaurant won't sell these desserts; not to mention cookies and the like, that's Vivian's specialty. She called me out to go shopping. After the date, she usually That’s why you’ll bring me snacks the next day.”

Ozwald shrugged, with a look of helplessness on his face:

"Of course, if you are willing to teach, Raphael, I would also be willing to learn it now - but the prerequisite is that your so-called quick method is not some kind of metaphysics like [pouring love will bring the taste of happiness]. "

"Oh, actually I really meant to say that~~"

"Seriously?!" Red Dragon was shocked: "Isn't this a way to trick novices into deceiving themselves and increase their self-confidence by satisfying their sense of accomplishment? Doesn't it directly affect the strength of the producer?

"Actually, theoretically it is possible."

With that said, Ulie reached out and grabbed Metatron who was whipping cream, pointed at the reluctant guy, and said cheerfully: "If there is no love, why do you think this old guy is so focused on finding the right thing?" How can you create a dessert called ice cream and come up with more than 40 ways to make it? How can you catch up with the production capacity of His Holiness the Pope’s three shaved ice machines just by hand?”

"No, no, no, this is just an example. Just relying on your mind to make things taste better is neither scientific nor metaphysical. It can't be done."

"It can be done."

"It's not difficult."

"It's very relaxing, dear Oz~~~"

Humming a brisk song, Gabriel inserted a special thermometer into the dough, and after confirming that the core temperature was around 24 degrees, he covered it with a wet towel like his previous work, and waited for the two-hour fermentation process; and then Start kneading new dough.

If possible, she hopes to sell more than 100 yuan of pizza tonight.

"In Rutland, everyone loves their favorite desserts and they all make them this way. If you don't believe it, you can just grab a sakota and ask."

?

? ?

"Tsk, damn Rutlanders, they talk about things that only NTs understand all day long... Sure enough, they can only win by being creative."

Ozwald curled his lips irritably and let go of his big tail. He stood up from the stool and walked towards the back kitchen where the oven, oven and other baking equipment were placed.

"Hey, Raphael, let me use the oven first."

"Okay~~~The egg yolks and cake flour are on the shelf behind you, and don't forget to get the sugar and chocolate, too?"

In response, Ozwald waved his hand without looking back, indicating that he understood.

And looking at his back as the door closed and disappeared, Metatron was a little worried.

"Is he really okay? Although I know that he will definitely not deliberately play tricks on the products for others to eat, but as an outsider, no matter how talented he is..."

"If you have any questions after trying it, just don't sell it as a product."

Put the water, oil, salt and other ingredients into a thick-bottomed pot, bring to a boil over high heat, then pour in the sifted flour, and stir quickly with a wooden spoon until the dough is cooked and the starch is fully gelatinized... Raphael's disapproving answer Metatron's concerns.

"At most, it can be treated as a bonus after spending a certain amount of money, and please note that interested parties can challenge it; as long as there is merit in the creativity of the production, then even if it is too unpalatable, it can still be regarded as a special feature - Knights of the Round Table The head of the group stepped up Tiansi’s gimmicks, which is enough to cover up this flaw.”

"That's right." Metatron nodded, and then looked at Healing Tiansi in surprise, with a sigh on his face: "I didn't expect that after 17 years, Raphael, you would become able to use these methods... …”

"No way, if you want to expand the scale of the medical team and renovate the equipment, you have to get funds. Just like the popes in the past, when they took over the name of Evangelista, they had to give up some of their good intentions. Goodness and morality, to maintain the unity of Rutland... there are always some trade-offs. As long as I can save more people, I don't care about the face. So why don't I drag everyone to sell things every year!"

"That aspect hasn't changed, Raphael."

"To each other, senior."

These old friends from Sakota, who had not seen each other for many years, took advantage of their busy schedules to chat about the past and the changes in Rutland in recent years.

During this period, it was quite rare that Ravshini did not follow her clan leader. Instead, she lay beside a gunslinger's shop next door and watched the Sakota stall who was selling marshmallows. Rotary machines whine and grind raw materials;

The wonderful aroma of rock sugar spreads to the surroundings, and the slender wooden stick is hung with the skillful skills of the stall owner to gather the light pink and white silk threads of witchcraft into a bundle, which seems to bring the white clouds from the sky to the world, just like The spider web captured Miss Drake's heart, causing her to occasionally let out an exclamation of "Wow".

Seeing such a scene, Gabriel, who was about to come over after hearing the news, showed a gentle look on his face. After wiping his flour-covered hands, he took out two etched bullet shells from his pocket and threw them to the marshmallow shop owner. The gunslinger on vacation looked at each other and smiled.

Glorious Rutland, no one can stop the gunfight: 12 As expected, the red dragon’s mind is filled with wonderful thoughts of freedom

After two hours of intensive preliminary work, all the preparations required for the celebration have been completely completed. Only the sound of the bell in the evening announcing that the sun is about to set will start everything.

And it was about this time that Ozwald, with a stinky face and a groan, came over carrying a baking sheet filled with cookies.

Since the maker is a legendary red dragon, the control of baking temperature and decoration of these cookies and biscuits can be said to be a level of perfection that even machines are difficult to achieve... But cookies are a kind of food rather than an ornament. The quality of the work of art must be tasted in person, based on the proportions of various ingredients that have been basically determined before baking in-house.

However, what makes the four Sakota as appreciators feel a little strange is that these small cookies, which obviously do not seem to be different in type or special shape, are deliberately stacked on the baking sheet by their makers to form clearly defined shapes. Three groups...it was obviously not based on the number of taste testers, but had other plans.

But just like Raphael suggested before, with a desire to taste creativity and novelty, Metatron and the others decided to send three people to taste it according to the red dragon's plan.

Just, how do you evaluate it?

In terms of taste purely as a snack, these cookies can only be said to be unsatisfactory.At least according to the specific specifications of Rutland, who loves desserts, this thing is definitely not excellent, or even failing, and can only barely score around [-] points.

But they do have their own uniqueness as predicted - unexpected things happened to the three people who tried the cookies.

"Uh, does it feel a little cooler?"

Rubbing his smooth arms that had goosebumps due to some discomfort, Gabriel asked the other two Sakota companions who were tasting the taste with some uncertainty; but he saw Metatron rubbing his hands. temple.

According to him, when he bit into the cookie, he felt a slight stimulation that spread from his mouth to the entire cranial cavity, but it was not uncomfortable, and there was even a bit of unexpected pleasure.

Raphael, on the other hand, had a strange expression on his face and suppressed his throat. After coughing a few times as if to dispel the itching, he inadvertently spit out a fleeting flame.

Three balls of biscuits, three different experiences.

Of course, rather than making meaningless speculations on your own, it is more convenient to directly seek official answers from the producers who are right in front of you.

"I used the technique of making storage spell-casting runestones in the ice field...that is, I imprinted my Origin Stone skills into the making of cookies along with the mold, which are the three elemental properties that are commonly used as means of attack. ...But I haven’t decided on a name yet, so I’ll use ABC instead for the time being.”

The first is type A. Based on the inspiration of popping candy, when bitten into pieces, a trace amount of electric arc will be released to stimulate the user's body due to the collapse of the magic solid, achieving a pleasure similar to the slight pain when eating chili peppers;

Next is B, which is based on the well-known mythological and legendary image of Drac, or the red dragon. When the fragments are squeezed by the throat, they will cough like a cough, spit out fine sparks, and become a small fire dragon;

And the last C, which stands for frost, is specially made for the hot weather now. It is almost like talcum powder or mint shower gel. It will become much cooler in the next quarter to half an hour after eating it, which is O.K. Zward's spell was used to dissipate heat and cool down himself, but it had no superimposing effect.

However, according to Honglong's personal guess, these three products still have some minor flaws. For example, A will have a slight impact on the appearance of human hair, and B is that after spraying too much fire, the throat will inevitably become dry and itchy due to lack of moisture. C... It may cause diarrhea.

Well, generally speaking, they are all normal and minor problems that are caused by eating too much.

"Sometimes I really want to see how your brain is growing. You can always come up with these wonderful ideas." I ate another C-shaped cookie, feeling the cooling effect brought by the effectiveness, and my heart was so happy. Metatron let out a sigh of relief: "But this time the work was quite good. The child liked it very much. I will do more next time."

"What about the output?" Raphael frowned: "In terms of time, it took you nearly three hours. Could it be that it was very troublesome to make?"

"No, cookies are the normal method; because the carrier used to store and inscribe spells is actually a decorating plate, and to adjust the output of spells; that's what I was doing at the time." Red Dragon explained that he had only finished it now The reason: "After carving something, there is actually no time to spend. Even if you need it, I can shorten the production time by baking it manually."

"Okay, then the highlight tonight is your stuff!"

Patting the red dragon's shoulder hard, Raphael made no secret of his optimism for these gadgets.

Not only do they have fun and practical features that perfectly fit the extremely joyful life of the Rutlanders.

More importantly, as long as these cookies that are almost indistinguishable in appearance are completely disrupted and mixed together, consumers who originally only need a single function can develop a lottery-like gambling mentality and keep trying... ...and then get a guaranteed gift that will be given to you after you buy a certain amount, eh~~~

Rafael, the captain of the Rutland International Medical Team, who has been suffering from financial problems, made an oath here.

This time, TM will definitely take out all the etched bullets in everyone’s bags at the venue! !

..................................................................................................................

"July 7; pm27:6"

Ozwald also used Drac's Origin Stone technology to create a new inscription that accelerated the metabolism of new dust and greatly shortened the digestion rate of the eater; in disguise, it increased the number of products sold.And the product names of these popular cookies have been finalized as 'A·Lightning Jump Assault Core', 'B·Destruction Charmander' and 'C·High Temperature Smasher', and they come with bonuses for you to check carefully. The combination tried different quantity combinations to achieve a new high in sales.

This made Ulie and Raphael shout loudly: Brother Ozwald is invincible, and Brother Ozwald will insult the entire commercial street!

However, Gabriel was too tired to make his own pizza due to excessive traffic, so he cursed a certain red dragon as a bastard, but the smile on his face because of the wealth could not be calmed down.

As for Metatron, who had made bold promises to kill the Pope at this summer celebration...

Thanks to the Type C that can dissipate heat and cool down, his ice cream sales plummeted and he could only sit outside the door, looking up at the bright moon in the sky with a sad face.

ps: Come to think of it, everyone seems to have not noticed that the title of my Four-day Lateran Division comes from GBF.

Glorious Rutland, no one can stop the gunfight: 13 Great Harvest, local prejudice before the celebration banquet

"Here is the ABC·Dragon Annihilator set meal you ordered, as well as the corresponding stomach and digestive food; please keep it... Ah, if you want money, you don't have to pay, just think of it as the grand prize of the last round. I hope that you, the guest, can be with me. Share the joy they bring with those around you.”

At [-]:[-] in the evening, the last cookie freshly baked in the oven, which was still in short supply even at full power, was packaged and handed over to the lucky winner who was cheering in front of him;

At this point, after confirming that most of the raw materials in the store except ice cream have been exhausted and it is difficult to carry out normal sales work, the joint sales of the four angels and the red dragon have reached an undoubted perfect ending.

By making use of the remaining ones, he playfully used Longyan to bake three plates of pizza, and everyone who had been busy for a long time was able to enjoy a late-night snack under the protection of the central air-conditioning Ozwald.

"Today's profit should be pretty good, Raphael."

"Definitely the highest it has been in five years, and it's all thanks to Mr. Ozwald's idea."

He rolled up the pizza slice in his hand and took a bite, enjoying the delicious taste of fresh buffalo cheese on his tongue. Surrounded by a feeling of happiness that he couldn't tell whether it was the deliciousness of the food or the huge profit, the extremely happy Raphael seemed to be thinking with his head and lips curled up. Thank you to the red dragon who can get beer wherever you can: "It's really just like Metatron boasted, you are a wonderful person who can always use magic in trivial matters in life, and your every move will bring a sense of surprise to people; I hope that We can invite you to join our medical team."

"Well, that's probably not possible. What are we doing with you?"

It is true that for the international medical team that worked tirelessly with his own belief, led by Raphael, who has been running around to rescue the injured in various disaster-ravaged sites all year round, Ozwald would naturally have admiration and respect for them. but to be honest, the kind of life attitude that has a mission-oriented nature is a bit difficult for him to adapt to. He can't achieve the kind of kindness that is partly random and helps others after encountering him. This morality becomes Obligations and missions mixed with shackles... At least Ozwald has asked himself. Faced with the scolding and insults from those who obviously saved you but just because they were unable to achieve perfection, it is difficult for him to be as happy as them. Sakota endured it as well.

Maybe once or twice is okay, but the result after more may still be the approach of 'If you think I am not good enough at this thing, then you might as well not even ask for this thing'; that is, it is not Even if you talk about beating the white-eyed wolves into scum with a thunderbolt, you should at least help destroy the things you sent for them, and return the incident to its original appearance - because you people lack even the heart of gratitude. This guy doesn't deserve my help!

And if there were any further moral threats to complain about why the red dragon didn't do anything even though it had the ability...Oswald would just laugh and slap him with his backhand, and asked in reverse, "You kid, go ahead and shout in front of me." Just two words of "Brother, help me". If you keep talking to me about these things, you can't do it. If you can't do it, you can only say that God doesn't appreciate it, so don't push me anymore."

Therefore, in the face of Raphael's invitation, Ozwald could only accept it with his heart.

"Well, if you like it, brother, I can give you the 'ABC' inscription method and formula set. Just use this as a side industry to make up for some funding gaps or something?"

After finishing his pizza, Red Dragon gently licked the remaining powder on his fingers. After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment and added: "In addition, I think I can find another time to teach you how to make healing rune stones... Although I don’t have Draco’s Origin Stone skills, but it’s no problem to learn a theory by analogy; it just makes up for your sometimes shortage of manpower.”

"Well... let's not talk about the former for the moment. The latter is indeed very tempting for the medical team, and it can even be said to be [necessary], and my 'selfishness' prevents me from rejecting you; but please don't worry, Ozawa. Germany, you will be nominated by the International Medical Team."

"It's up to you~~"

Ozwald waved his hand, indicating that Raphael could just make the arrangements himself, since he always just followed his heart.
