"......" Garelian Fortress, restaurant.

After Instructor Sarah had finished talking to Instructor Knighthart, who had called for everyone to come to dinner, he brought everyone here and waited for the so-called lunch to be served in the cafeteria, and everyone finally understood why some people said that this was the last place the soldiers wanted to stay. Even if you bask in the sun for a while, you don't want to stay here for even a minute.

Salty to bitterness, the meat has turned into canned beef that is almost black charcoal; A completely tasteless, boiled water-like bean soup; and some moldy brown bread that had been sitting out for a long time - plus some dry fruit and cheese that were still good for the mouth. Even though the fruit has been processed and crumpled, no one would patronize it if it were put on the market.

In a word, the food here is really - terrible.

"I didn't expect it to be so unpalatable." Alyssa felt the urge to vomit just by tasting a bite of bread - her tongue had never been tortured like this in the usual way of eating Sharon's wonderful dishes. Even the bento boxes produced by food companies are much better than this.

"The food of the Confederate army is completely two worlds...... "Jusis also secretly slandered, he has also seen the food of the Confederate army in his own Cruchen state, almost every meal will have a professional chef in the canteen to prepare more than thirty dishes, from vegetarian dishes to meat dishes, from the main dish to all kinds of soups and snacks are all top-notch, saying that this is not a military camp, but the internal high-level canteen of a large company in the imperial capital, no one will doubt it. However, it was such a level of cuisine, and when he occasionally went to the fortress of Ololos, those officers were very excited and said, "Young Master Jusis can't be allowed to eat such a simple thing." ”

Naturally, Instructor Knight Hardt has his own explanation for this. Due to the need to maintain a large standing army, all the ingredients in this Garelian fortress are prioritized as easy to preserve, so that even in the event of a war, the army will not feel uncomfortable due to the drastic drop in the scale of supplies, which will affect the combat effectiveness. In other words, the fortress was not unconditioned to provide the soldiers with better food conditions, but to make them feel the atmosphere of "war" from time to time.

"I'm done." "Hmm......" However, while they were talking, two of them had eaten everything silently. In everyone's surprised gaze, everyone turned their eyes to Hailiga and Fei, "You two ......"

"What's wrong?" Fei asked innocently with wide eyes.

"Hmm...... Aren't there any activities in the afternoon? Don't you eat it? Heiliga took out two handkerchiefs and handed them to Fei, "Oh yes, what were you talking about?" ”

"I say......" Alyssa rolled her eyes, "don't you think this thing is hard to eat?" ”

"It's hard to eat." Faye and Heliga said in unison.

"Then you still ......"

"Get used to it." Fei said expressionlessly, "When you are in the hunting regiment, if you catch up with a long-term mission outside...... It's hard to guarantee what to eat, basically what you eat. ”

"Actually, if you can get used to the smell of grass, those wild vegetables are quite tender and juicy, and if you have salt and wine with you, it is good to cook a little to get rid of the strange smell."

"I'm sorry for you. The food you cook is not as tender as the freshly dug up bark. Phyye looked at Hyliga with disdain.

"Hmph, it's better than you pinching up a group meal and pinching out military dry food." Faye's words hit the sore spot of Heliga, who had been ridiculed by Estelle and others for his poor cooking skills before, and now he turned against him.

"Well, no one in the group knows how to cook anyway." Fei tilted her head indifferently, "As long as something can be eaten, it's not a big deal." ”

"That's so, but after the mission is over, you'll find a place to eat and drink, right?"

"yes......"

The conversation between the two evoked nostalgia for the past, but it was not so good in the eyes of other students - they were just shocked, this kind of thing is actually eaten often, and they can still eat it habitually, should they be said to be worthy of being a hunter?

"This is really crooked." Instructor Sarah usually doesn't deal with Knighthardt, and she, who has always cared about the quality of food and drink, is actually served this kind of food, which makes her even more targeted Knighthardt, "Let's not mention Liber and Crossbell's army, and don't mention the Republic...... Just to say that they are also the regular army of the Empire, the food of the Third Mecha Division in Jiandamen is definitely much stronger than here. ”

"People in the village often come to the village to deliver supplies, and Nolde's local cuisine is very useful for strengthening the spirit, and they often send people to the village to learn." Gaius nodded, agreeing with the statement.

"And the 3rd Mecha Division isn't a solid rear either...... I remember the last time you visited, there was a near conflict with the Republic. Laura was a straight person, and as soon as Kendamen's example came out, she found Nathardt's explanation untenable, so she naturally asked, "But the same thing is not done there to maintain armaments...... It's just curiosity, I'm not dissatisfied with the food......"

"The last internship was a special case. The fact is that expectations for war there are low. "Because of the neutral buffer zone of the Nord Plateau, and the nomadic people there who have a long tradition of friendship with the Empire, the two sides do not regard it as a place of dispute." What you encountered during your internship was nothing more than the terrorists behind it who were stirring up a wedge between the Republic and the Empire. In addition, the climate of the plateau is special, and it is difficult for the average Imperial person to adapt to the climate from the warm environment of the empire to the hot and cold Norde, so adapting to the cuisine with the style of the region is also part of the adaptation. Yarsside, are you okay with this answer? ”

"Makes sense. Taught. Laura said convincingly. It seems that although Nate Hardt usually behaves a little clumsy as a soldier when he works as an instructor, he still has a lot of dry goods. Hearing the remarks just now, Emma and Macchias kept nodding their heads, and even Jusis showed a thoughtful expression.

"Hmm......" Instructor Sarah stopped talking, she didn't expect there to be so much ink under Nate Harter's serious appearance.

"That...... Let's eat it, everyone. As if he knew something, Elliot reminded, "If you don't eat it...... Training in the afternoon can be hard. ”
