The next day, Leo and Sylvia took the transfer order and went directly to the convocation address written above, which was Ronald's Camp in the Knights' District.

The entire urban area of Winter Rin City is divided into seven parts, the largest part of which is the college district, but the area of the academy district itself is not the largest, mainly because the college district expanded later, and one piece was divided from the other six districts as the academy branch, and the area of the knight district was the largest, almost half of which was crossed, making this once the largest urban area now the smallest urban area.

Once the Knight Quarter was the most prosperous and lively city in the entire Winter Rin City, a total of thirty-one knight camps were built here to train knights, and this was once the knight mecca of the entire Velen world, and the knights of any country were proud to be able to graduate from the knight camp and receive medals.

And the greatest glory in the minds of the knights of the Velen world is not the victory on the battlefield, but the thirty-one ring challenge of the knight camp in Winter Rin City.

The knights participating in the challenge must challenge the chief knight of the thirty-one knight battalion, and each person who defeats them needs to buckle a very heavy gold ring on their hands, until they challenge the last chief knight, the weight of the gold ring on his body will become very terrifying, and it is very difficult to walk normally, let alone fight.

As long as he defeats the chief knight of the thirty-one knight battalion, that knight will be honored as a champion knight, and the country will directly grant him the title of baron, which can be described as a step to the sky.

In the entire Thirty-One Knights' Battalion, only seven men have ever been Champion Knights, four of whom were Ecclesiastical Knights, two of the other three were Franicians and one of the Mares, and the details of these seven knights are recorded on the base of their statues in the Knights' Square.

However, with the advent of steam technology, various steam weapons have gradually become the mainstream, especially after the emergence of steam repeaters with very strong lethality and rate of fire, the era of knights and cavalry as the main force on the battlefield has come to an end. Although many knights can still be seen on large and small battlefields, their role on the battlefield has changed from frontal charging and destroying enemy formations to flanking and attacking the enemy.

Because of the decline of cavalry and knights, coupled with the growth of the academy, Winter Rin City, a city of knights, was inevitably affected, the biggest of which was that thirty-one knight camps were closed and transformed into recreational racetracks, arenas and fitness camps, leaving only Ronald Battalion, which had trained two champion knights, still continuing to operate, training for the Empire, or more accurately, training Royal Guard knights for the royal family.

Now all the countries in the world still retain the knightly formation of pure knights only the French Royal Guard, other so-called knights, in fact, only a few people are knights, the rest are either ordinary cavalry, or knight squires.

Although the French Royal Guard was often used as a guard of honour, if the fighting power of this order was underestimated, it would certainly suffer a great loss, and the United Kingdom obviously felt the pain.

In a recent war, the French Royal Guard suddenly appeared on the front line of the battlefield, flanking the United Kingdom's military formation, directly penetrating the military formation, killing the general in the center of the military formation, causing the entire front to collapse.

Had it not been for the well-trained other armies to fill the gap, I am afraid that the battle would have ended in a rout on the part of the United Kingdom, and the most important part of the United Kingdom, the Porto region, would have been lost.

As a knight's camp with two champion knights, this knight's camp not only did not decrease in size, but also divided a part of the training ground from the thirty knights' camps when the other thirty knight camps closed, and finally more than doubled its size.

One side of the wall of the Knights' Camp is connected to the Knights' Guard Station in the Royal Garden, and can be accessed through the Royal Garden at any time, which is part of the Palace's defense system.

There are now nearly 400 people in the knights' camp receiving knight training, these people can be regarded as quasi-knights, plus the hundreds of knights of the royal guard, it is enough to protect the palace in the event of any incident.

By the time the two of them arrived at the training camp, there had already been a lot of people gathered here, roughly counting the hundreds, dressed in all kinds of clothes, some wearing workers' suspenders' clothes, some dressed like gang leaders, all in all, it looked like people from all walks of life in Winter Rin City had gathered here.

It's just that if you carefully check the physical condition of these people with the spirit net, you will find that these people are all very strong without exception, and they are proficient in combat and fighting, and there are a lot of weapons hidden on their bodies, and some of them even have some traces of slight mutations.

Undoubtedly, these people, like Leo, are all elites transferred from various departments in Winter Rin City, and they should all go to the Seventh Research Institute to work.

Although they may be colleagues in the future, because they come from different departments, and some departments are still hostile, everyone who comes here has a little bit of vigilance, and they have no idea of talking to each other, and they have found a corner to stay.

When Leo and Sylvia arrived, their eyes inadvertently swept over the two of them, and many of them revealed a hint of contempt, apparently because of the two of them dressed as college students.

Only the few who knew that the two of them were from the Special Operations Division showed a look of wariness.

Although the power of the Special Operations Division in the French Empire is very great, in the various government departments within the French Empire, especially the military department, they are not very clear about the actual situation of this department, in addition to the fact that the front-line agents of the Special Operations Division are all aimed at those mutants and rarely cooperate with other departments to handle cases, more importantly, the identity of the Special Operations Department is actually the Royal Secret Service, the General Department of Home Affairs, The staff of the Department of Judicial Investigation and other departments, unless there are special circumstances, rarely reveal their identity to outsiders, so for the vast majority of government departments in the French Empire, the Special Operations Department is more like an urban legend, and it is still unknown whether it really exists.

Leo and Sylvia didn't do anything out of the ordinary, they just found a corner of the barracks and stood against the wall, just like the rest of the people who came here, waiting for the rest of the situation.

After that, more than 100 people came to the small square of this training camp one after another, and the number of people also increased to more than 500 people, all of whom did not talk but stood quietly everywhere, and there was an extremely strange silence around them.

It was almost noon when a middle-aged man in a special military uniform walked here, then took out a list, recited the names one by one, and finally said to the crowd: "Follow me who reads the name." ”

After saying that, without any explanation, he turned around and walked back the way he came.

And those who read the names immediately came out of the crowd and quickly followed.

The others didn't show anything unusual about the appearance of the middle-aged man, but Leo frowned slightly when he saw the middle-aged man, and the reason why his expression changed a little was not because of the middle-aged man himself, but because of the middle-aged man's clothes, the style of the costume was obviously the style of the work clothes of the Loclus star, the only difference was that the costume lacked some technological elements, and it was just made of pure fabric.

The Loclos are a rare race of humanoid aliens, they are very similar in appearance to humans, but they are taller than humans, have four arms, and have a different number of horns on their heads, their status is determined by the number and size of horns on their heads, the larger and more horns, the higher their status.

The relationship between this race and humans is very general, and it was even hostile in the early days, because their image is a little similar to the demons mentioned in the religion of the old earth era, although the religion has been weakened when it entered the Earth Federation, there are still many people who believe in various religions, and there are many people who believe in the existence of demon angels, but they think that the so-called demon angels in religious legends are actually psionic beings or omega-level advanced life forms.

When the Loclus Starmen were encountered, the commander of the human fleet at that time preemptively attacked the Loclos Starmen because of a misunderstanding, resulting in huge losses to the other party, and the two interstellar civilizations also fell into a hundred-year-long war, with countless casualties, and finally the war subsided, and the two sides reached a diplomatic relationship, but the hostile atmosphere between the two people is still very strong.

Leo didn't know much about the Rocklos Starmen, but he was very clear about their costumes, because the daily combat uniforms of the cyborgs were improved from the costumes of the Loclos, which was very similar to the clothes worn by the middle-aged man just now, and when he first saw it, he almost thought that the middle-aged man was a biochemical warrior of the Earth Federation.

The appearance of this middle-aged man also made Leo suspect that the Fran Empire should have obtained a technological item of the Loclus Starman, which may be the wreckage of a battleship or something else, but there is at least one or more complete Loclus Starman corpses inside, otherwise, it would be impossible to restore their costumes so well.

Subsequently, people in the same costume came one after another, and then reported their names and took them away, without stopping for a moment and without any explanation.

After about six or seven groups of more than two hundred people, Leo and Sylvia's names were reported by a young woman, and there were more than a dozen others who were also called by name, and these dozen or so people were all mutants with signs of mutation on their bodies.

Like the others before them, Leo didn't speak, but followed behind the young woman.

Soon the group came to a row of carriages, and the young women motioned for Leo to get into the carriages, where all the doors and windows were covered, and without hesitation, they each got into a carriage, and when the door was closed, the young woman locked it from the outside.

With the shaking of the body, the carriage slowly moved forward, because the carriage was completely enclosed, and all the gaps that could be seen outside were covered by layers of black veil, so normal people could not determine their position.

However, this is obviously of little use to Leo, and his spiritual net can easily penetrate the compartment and sense the situation outside.

Instead of heading to the Royal Garden, where Leo believed the Seventh Research Institute was located, the carriage now drove out of the Knights' Quarter, past the administrative district, through the Golden Garden, and out of Winter Rin City through the northwest gate of Winter Castle.

Leo, who discovered this, couldn't help frowning, and he couldn't help but wonder if the Seventh Research Institute wasn't in Winter Rin City? If that was the case, his plans would have changed somewhat, because the fundamental purpose of his coming here was not to investigate the secrets of the French Empire, but to take the contract ring from the treasury, and everything that was contrary to the fundamental purpose was secondary.

However, Leo's speculation did not come true, and after a circle in the suburbs, the convoy entered the city through another city gate, and then made a half-day detour around the city, re-detouring back to the actual training camp, and entering the royal garden on the path between the knight's training camp and the royal guard's station.

However, the carriage did not stay in the royal garden for long, and passed through the edge of the garden and drove towards the Feast Palace.

After discovering this, Leo couldn't help but be stunned, and he couldn't help but feel that this carriage would send him directly to his destination.

It's just that, because of his proximity to the palace, the powerful force that protects the palace has reappeared, so Leo has to stop using the unusually convenient spiritual network, and instead use his own supernormal perception to analyze and deduce his current location and the surrounding environment through clues such as the road conditions and vibration details when the carriage is moving.

After that, after nearly half an hour or so, the carriage stopped, but the door was not opened, and then a roar of machinery was heard, and the carriage trembled slightly, and the others did not know what it was, but Leo knew that they were now on a huge lifting platform, and the lifting platform was sinking them to the ground.

After about a few minutes, the carriage shook again, the sound of machinery stopped, the carriage started again and walked forward for about ten minutes, and then stopped again, and it was not long before the sound of unlocking was heard outside, and the door opened, and a blinding light came in from outside.

Leo didn't care about the change in light, got out of the carriage, looked around, and saw that there was a large number of cosmic civilization technology with obvious Locklos stars, which also proved Leo's guess when he saw the Locklos starmen's costumes before, the French Empire got the wreckage of a Locklos starman's spaceship.

Judging from the surrounding signs, such as the text of the Loclos Star Man that has not disappeared, this should be the living area compartment of a battleship, the interior is very huge, enough to accommodate a small area of the city, and the metal plate of the entire living module is made of a special material, which can make the metal for a long time, always emit a soft light that is not dazzling, illuminating the internal space of the life module, which is also one of the important technologies of the Loclus Star Man.
