Because they were worried that Jacques Huppert would be too bored in the legion and meddle in the affairs of the legion, the officers of the legion would do what they liked, and often find some famous people who practiced ancient knightly swordsmanship to challenge Jacques Huppert according to knightly etiquette.

It's just that it's the first time I've encountered a knight's battle post inlaid with gold like this, and the officers in the legion don't suspect him, thinking that it is a new trick that their colleagues have come up with, so they directly bring this knight's battle post of unknown origin to Jacques Huppert.

Although Jacques Huppert is rumored to be a representative of mediocrity and incompetence, he himself is not stupid, the fact is that he is very smart, he knows that his abilities are limited, he does not understand the transfer of troops in the modern army, and he does not know how to manage the army, so he leaves these matters to special officers, and all he needs to do is ask for money from above.

Jacques Huppert didn't say what his subordinates thought of him, but he knew it very well in his heart, but he didn't care about being a money bag, after all, it was much simpler to stay with these army soldiers than to play those tricky court games with those nobles in Winter Rin.

What's more, in order to curry favor with him, the officers here will try their best to help him find some opponents who can help him improve his swordsmanship. While not every opponent will make him have a great time, it's better to have someone to compete with him in swordsmanship than to accompany a group of noblewomen to a boring court ball in Winter Rin City.

This time, when the patrol officer of the legion's camp brought a knight's battle note and put it on his desk, Jacques Huppert, like the officer, thought that one of his officers had accidentally learned about some of the ancient knights' challenge etiquette, and had prepared a new trick for him.

He didn't plan to open this battle post at all, so he was ready to refuse this challenge, because the situation in the French Empire had become a little strange recently, especially the situation in Miria City, which made him feel inexplicably dangerous, and he wanted to think quietly about countermeasures, and ask his two sons in the eastern continent for advice if necessary, so he was not in the mood to cooperate with the officers below to play this knightly duel game.

However, when Jacques Huppert picked up the knight's battle post, he was confused by the weight of the war post and the gold ornamentation on the post.

He knew very well what kind of goods these officers under his command were, and in order to please themselves, it was easy for them to get a knight's battle post with an ancient knight's style, but only if it didn't cost much.

It is absolutely not something that the officers below the legion can do to make a knight's battle post directly with the best fragrant wood coated paper inlaid with gold like this, and it is precisely because of this discovery that Jacques Huppert, who was originally going to ignore this battle post, was curious and opened the battle post to look at it.

The person who wrote the battle post was obviously very familiar with the set of the French court, and the words and sentences were all used in ancient French, and the font was also used in the current French court's favorite twig flower style, which clearly pointed to the nobles of the French court.

The content of the battle post is not very much, after deleting some flashy rhetoric, the rest of the content is to say that the person who wrote the battle post was not satisfied with Jacques Huppert's swordsmanship, so he proposed a challenge, the challenge time was at ten o'clock this evening, outside the barracks of the First Legion, and the challenge project was Jacques Huppert's most proud dual-wielding cross sword swordsmanship.

At the beginning, Jacques Huppert saw that the time, place, and project of the challenge were written on the battle post, and he felt that the person who made the battle post was not clear about the rules of the ancient knight challenge, because only the challenged party was qualified to decide the time, place, and project.

It was only when he saw that the location was outside the camp, and the item turned out to be his strongest dual-wielding cross sword swordsmanship, he felt that the person who made the battle post really wanted to have a knight duel with him, not just to compete with the so-called knight swordsmanship masters before.

What really made Jacques Huppert's emotions fluctuate strongly was that the final signature turned out to be a descendant of the Perlini family, and when there was a family coat of arms on it that made him feel very familiar, he couldn't help but fall into the memory.

Jacques Huppert remembered the family legends his father had told him when he first picked up the crosssword, and he remembered finding the family genealogy from the family place, and now that the Perlini family and its coat of arms, which were supposed to be gone, had reappeared in front of him, he couldn't help but have some thoughts.

In the eyes of those who know the cross sword swordsmanship in the outside world, Jacques Huppert is already a well-deserved number one swordsman on the Vilen Continent, especially the dual-wielding cross sword swordsmanship is comparable to the legendary knight who invented the cross sword swordsmanship.

But Jacques Huppert had seen the family's literature about the legendary knight, and he knew very well that he was still far from that legendary knight, knowing that the legendary knight was a powerful being who could draw his sword even against an ancient wizard with magical powers.

And no matter how powerful his current swordsmanship is, he will be restrained everywhere when he encounters some clans or other people in the dark world who have magical abilities, not to mention that the power of the current mechanical bow and crossbow is enough to close the huge gap between the swordsman masters who have been practicing swordsmanship for many years and ordinary people.

Although Jacques Huppert knew very well that knights specializing in swordsmanship would sooner or later withdraw from the world stage and eventually become a status symbol, he didn't want the knight profession to disappear in obscurity, he hoped that he could let the knight profession shine again in his lifetime.

Now that this opportunity had come, Jacques Huppert had carefully studied the deeds of the legendary knight, and knew that the main reason why the legendary knight was invincible, in addition to his own strength, was that the other party had a pair of crossed swords that were considered an artifact at the time.

And now the person who ordered the knight's battle post is likely to be really the descendant of the legendary knight family, and since the other party has so much confidence to challenge his strongest dual-wielding cross sword swordsmanship, then the legendary knight's artifact is very likely to be on this challenger.

Jacques Huppert thought that as long as he could obtain this pair of artifacts, then his strength would definitely increase, and he would definitely not be much worse than that legendary knight at that time, and with such strength, even in this battlefield where steam mechanical weapons were rampant, he would be able to shine brightly.

Thinking of this, Jacques Huppert's mood became extremely excited, and his face became flushed with excitement.

"My lord, if you don't want to accept the challenge, I'll send this thing back?" The officer standing next to him looked at Jacques Huppert's face was cloudy, and finally his face was even more red, as if he was angry, and said quickly.

"Send it back? Why send it back?" Jacques Huppert came to his senses at this time, took a few deep breaths, adjusted his mood, and then turned to the officer, "What about the person who sent the war post?"

"Still waiting at the door for a response. Seeing that the boss's face returned to normal, the officer was also a little relieved and hurriedly replied.

Jacques Huppert pondered for a moment, wondering if he needed to send someone to follow the messenger and find the descendant of the Perini family, so as to avoid accidents such as his sudden disappearance.

But he soon shook his head and rejected the idea, not because he wanted to abide by some ancient knightly code, but because he didn't have anyone to trust right now.

If you send these people under the legion, not to mention whether these people can find that person without alarming the other party. Even if he found that person, I am afraid that the news would have spread in the barracks before his ears could reach him, and then it would attract attention and make it difficult for him to start.

Jacques Huppert pondered for a moment, and then thought to himself: "Since it is his post, then he will definitely come, I just need to wait here for him to come, defeat him, and then capture him, there is no need to make any extraneous troubles." ”

Jacques Huppert, who had figured it out, immediately found a letter for the internal use of the Legion, wrote his reply on it, gave it to the officer, instructed him to hand it over to the messenger himself, and then got up and went to the playground to prepare for the duel tonight.

Although Jacques Huppert was very confident in his swordsmanship, he felt that the opponent must be sure to fight him since he had placed a battle post, so he did not dare to take it lightly, and he needed to prepare several sets of plans to ensure that nothing was lost, and even used the army if necessary.

Outside the barracks, after receiving a reply, Sylvia's men rushed back, and after several formalities dedicated to cleaning up the stalkers, the reply was delivered to the Sky Tower's room.

However, compared to the tense atmosphere in the room two hours ago, the atmosphere in the room was very relaxed now, Leo was standing in the middle of the room, and Sylvia and Emily were tying the parts of a set of Flange Orthodox Knight armor sets to his inner lining one by one.

The French Empire is also known as the Knight Empire, and the reputation of the various knight orders in France can be said to have resounded throughout the Veron Continent, and even the people on the other two continents have heard of its reputation.

Because there are many knights in the French Empire, each knight has a different shape of armor, plus some knights in order to show their personality, they will create a set of unique knight armor for themselves, so that the knight armor of the French Empire is as many as a cow's hair, according to incomplete statistics, there are more than 2,000 kinds of whole body armor alone, and there are more than half armor.

Because more than fifty years ago, after the army of the French Empire began to follow the example of the Kingdom of Mares to form an army based on firearms and various steam weapons, the military reform of the French Empire abolished all the knights in just ten years, so that the knights changed from a profession to a certain honorary title, and most of the knight armor was forged into steel.

Only a small part of the knight armor with special glory and legendary experience has become the collection of the noble family's glory, so when Leo asked Sylvia for a full-body knight armor, Sylvia didn't know where to get a set for a while, and finally with the help of the guardian priest of the Sky Tower, he found a set of Flange Knight Bust from the Sky Tower's storehouse.

The correct name for this set of bust armor should actually be the Flange Reserve Knight Squire Half-Body, which is mainly the standard armor prepared by the Flange Knights for the knight squires in the regiment, equipped with a helmet, a half-body breastplate, a set of elbow pads, hand armor, leg armor and knee pads. However, because the helmet was open, it didn't meet Leo's requirements, so Sylvia had to help him find a new metal mask for the ball and put it on him.

As she helped Leo equip her armor and test her performance, Emily's eyes looked at the file bag on the table from time to time, and the look of hesitation, rejection, and expectation changed back and forth on her face, making her inner struggle overflowing.

Emily struggled to get the document of her past from Sylvia, as the fragments of memories flashing in her mind urged her to open the file bag and reclaim the past, while her inner instinct prevented her from regaining her memories, as if the memories of the past were a flood of beasts.

After more than an hour of confusion, Emily still hadn't made a final decision, and at this time, the knight's armor that Sylvia had prepared for Leo was repaired and maintained, so she simply put down the file bag and took the opportunity to help Leo put on the armor to calm down and then talk.

"You should take a look. Sylvia helped fasten the clasp on the back of the breastplate, knocked on the steel plate on the back of the breastplate, and gave advice.

When Emily heard this suggestion, she was stunned and looked at Sylvia with some hesitation, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't say it.

And Sylvia seemed to know Emily's thoughts, stretched out her hand to touch Emily's cheek, and said in a gentle tone: "No matter who you were in the past and what kind of memories you have, you can't change your present, will you break off friendship with me just because you found the memories of the past?"

Sylvia's intimate behavior in front of Leo made Emily's face blush a little, she secretly glanced at Leo, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw Leo's normal expression, and then shook her head at Sylvia and responded to the question just now.

Maybe it was because Sylvia's words had an effect, or maybe it was because she felt it was time for her to make a decision. I saw her walk to the table, pick up the document bag, and shake her head vigorously, as if she wanted to get rid of the distractions in her head, and then she didn't even think about opening the file bag directly, pulled out all the documents inside, and looked at it carefully in front of her eyes.

As the contents of the materials were recorded in her mind little by little, Emily's original scattered memory fragments were like rewoven rags, gradually returning to a complete form, and even some memory fragments that had not appeared before were reawakened and replenished to the incomplete memory map.

At this time, although the expression on Emily's face remained calm, and the personal feeling was as if the information she was reading now was not her past but the life of a stranger, but her eyes couldn't stop crying, and soon the makeup on her face was cried, leaving ugly grooves along the tear stains.
