Because they were worried that Jacques Huppert would be too bored in the legion and meddle in things within the legion, the officers of the legion would do whatever they wanted. They would often find some famous masters who practiced ancient knight swordsmanship to teach Jacques Huppert in accordance with knight etiquette.

·Huppert Challenge.

However, this was the first time I had encountered him making a gold-encrusted knight's battle card like this. The officers in the legion did not doubt him. They thought it was a new trick thought up by their colleagues, so they directly used it.

This knightly battle letter of unknown origin was brought to Jacques Huppert.

Although Jacques Huppert is rumored to be a representative of mediocrity and incompetence, he himself is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very smart. He knows that his abilities are limited and he does not understand the deployment of troops in a modern army.

, did not understand military management, so he left these matters to specialized officers to handle, and all he did was to ask for money from above.

Jacques Huppert didn't say anything about what the people below him thought of him, but he knew it in his heart. But he didn't care about being a money bag. After all, it was better than playing those intrigues and intrigues with the nobles in Winter City.

, it is much simpler to stay with these army soldiers.

What's more, in order to please him, the officers here will try their best to help him find some opponents who can help him improve his swordsmanship. Although not every opponent may be able to give him a full fight, having someone to compete with him in swordsmanship is better than in Donglin.

It is much better to attend a boring palace ball with a group of noble ladies.

This time, when the patrol officer at the legion's camp brought a knight's challenge letter and put it on his desk, Jacques Huppert, like the officer, thought that one of his officers accidentally knew about the ancient knight's challenge.

Some things about etiquette, new tricks specially prepared for him.

He had no intention of opening this battle card, and was ready to refuse this challenge, because the situation in the French Empire had become a bit weird recently, especially the situation in Milia City, which made him feel inexplicable danger. He wanted to be quiet.

He wanted to think 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 his officers in playing this kind of knightly duel game.

However, when Jacques Huppert picked up the knight's invitation, he was confused by the heavy weight of the invitation and the gold decoration on it.

He knew very well who the officers under his command were. In order to please him, it was very easy for them to get a knight's battle card in the style of ancient knights, but the prerequisite was that it did not cost much.

Directly using the best fragrant wood coated paper inlaid with gold to make a knight's battle card like this is definitely not something that the officers under the legion can do. It was precisely because of this discovery that I originally planned to ignore this battle card.

Jacques Huppert became curious and opened the invitation to take a look.

The person who wrote the war notice was obviously very familiar with the style of the French court. All the words and sentences were in ancient French, and the font was also in the squiggle style that is now the favorite of the French court. At a glance, it was obvious

It clearly points to the nobles of the French court.

The content of the battle post is not very much. After deleting some flashy rhetoric, the remaining content is that the person who posted the battle post is not convinced by Jacques Huppert's swordsmanship, so he proposes a challenge. The challenge time is at ten o'clock tonight

, the location is outside the barracks of the First Legion, and the challenge is the dual-wielding cross sword swordsmanship that Jacques Huppert is most proud of.

At the beginning, Jacques Huppert saw that the challenge time, place and project were also written down on the battle post. 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 could

Eligibility determines time, location and project.

But when he saw that the location was outside the camp, and the project 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 with him.

In the past, the so-called masters of knight swordsmanship were just for competition.

What really made Jacques Huppert's emotions fluctuate strongly was that the last signature turned out to be a descendant of the Perini family, and there was a family crest on it that made him feel very familiar. He couldn't help but fall into it.

In memory.

Jacques Huppert still remembered the family legends his father told him when he first picked up the cross sword. He also remembered finding the records about the origin of the family in the family genealogy from the family's hometown. Now this

The Perini family and coat of arms that should have disappeared reappeared in front of him, which made him have some thoughts.

In the eyes of those outside who know the cross-sword swordsmanship, Jacques Huppert is already the well-deserved number one master of swordsmanship on the Velen Continent. In particular, his double-wielding cross-sword swordsmanship is comparable to that of the legendary knight who invented the cross-sword swordsmanship.

But Jacques Huppert had seen his family's documentary records about the legendary knight. He knew very well that he was still far behind compared with the legendary knight. You must know that the legendary knight back then even faced a man with magical power.

A powerful being that ancient wizards can draw swords against.

No matter how powerful his current swordsmanship is, he will still be restrained in every situation when he encounters some clan members with magical abilities or other people from the dark world, not to mention that the power of the current mechanical crossbows is enough to even out the differences between swordsman masters who have been practicing swordsmanship for many years and ordinary people.

a very wide distance.

Although Jacques Huppert knew very well that knights who specialized in swordsmanship would sooner or later withdraw from the world stage and would eventually become just a status symbol, he did not want the knight profession to disappear into obscurity. He hoped that he could

In my lifetime, let the knight profession shine again.

Now this opportunity has come. Jacques Huppert carefully studied the deeds of the legendary knight and knew that in addition to his own strength, the main reason why the legendary knight was invincible was that he had a pair of weapons in the opponent's hands at that time.

A cross sword considered a sacred weapon.

And now the person who signed the knight's battle card is probably really a direct 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 has great potential.

It's probably on this challenger.

Jacques Huppert thought that as long as he could obtain this pair of artifacts, his strength would definitely improve, and he would definitely not be much worse than the legendary knight. With such strength, even in this world where steam mechanical weapons are rampant,

On the battlefield, he can also shine with dazzling light.

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

"Sir, if you are not willing to accept the challenge, shall I send this thing back?" The officer standing nearby looked at Jacques Huppert's face, which was cloudy and uncertain. In the end, his face turned red, as if he was angry.

, said quickly.

"Send it back? Why send it back?" Jacques Huppert woke up at this time, took a few deep breaths, adjusted his emotions, and then asked the officer: "Where is the person who sent the war ticket?"

"Still waiting for a response at the door." Seeing his boss's expression return to normal, the officer breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied.

Jacques Huppert pondered for a moment, wondering whether he needed to send someone to follow the person who sent the war message and find the descendant of the Perini family, so as to avoid accidents such as his sudden disappearance.

But he quickly shook his head and rejected the idea, not because he wanted to abide by any ancient knight's code, but because he had no one he could trust at hand.

If these people from the legion are sent, let alone whether these people can find the person without alerting the other party. Even if the person is found, I am afraid that the news will not wait for the news to reach his ears, but it will already be in the military camp.

Once word spread, it attracted attention and made it difficult for him to take action.

After Jacques Huppert pondered for a moment, he thought to himself: "Since it was him who issued the war invitation, he will definitely come. I just need to wait here for him to come, defeat him, and then catch him."

, there is absolutely no need to create extraneous matters.”

Wanting to understand, Jacques Huppert immediately found a letter card used within the army, wrote his reply on it, handed it to the officer, and ordered him to hand the reply to the person who sent the letter in person, and then got up.

Head to the playground to prepare for tonight's duel.

Although Jacques Huppert was very confident in his swordsmanship, he felt that since the opponent had issued a battle invitation, he would definitely be sure to fight him, so he did not dare to take it lightly. He needed to prepare several plans to ensure that everything was foolproof.

Sometimes they even use the army.

Outside the military camp, after receiving the reply, Sylvia's men immediately rushed back. After several procedures specifically designed to clean up the followers, the reply was sent to the room in the Sky Tower.

However, compared to the tense atmosphere in the room two hours ago, the atmosphere in the room at this moment has become very relaxed. Leo is standing in the middle of the room, and Sylvia and Emily are putting together a French orthodox set.

The parts of the knight's armor are tied one by one to his inner lining.

The Fran Empire is also known as the Empire of Knights. The reputation of the various knights in Fran can be said to have resounded throughout the Velen Continent, and even people on the other two continents have heard of their reputation.

Because there are many knights in France, each knight has a different style of armor. In addition, some knights will create a unique set of unique knight armor for themselves in order to show their personality, making the Empire of France more popular.

There are so many types of knight armor. According to incomplete statistics, there are more than 2,000 types of full-body armor alone, and even more half-body armor.

Since more than fifty years ago, the French Empire's army began to follow the example of the Kingdom of Maris in forming an army based on firearms and various steam weapons. The military reforms of the French Empire brought all knights to power in just ten years.

All regiments were cancelled, turning knights from a profession into some kind of honorary title, and most of the knights' armor was forged into steel.

Only a small number of knight armors with special honors and legendary experiences have become collections of noble families to show their glory, so when Leo asked Sylvia for a full-body knight armor, Sylvia didn't know where to start from.

I went there to get a set, and finally, with the help of the guard priests of the Sky Tower, I found a set of Flan Knight half armor from the Sky Tower warehouse.

The correct name of this set of half-armor should actually be the half-body armor of the Knights of France. It is mainly the standard armor prepared by the Knights of France for the knights' attendants in the order. It is equipped with a helmet, a half-breastplate, a set of elbow pads, and hand armor.

, leg armor and knee pads. However, because the helmet was open-faced and did not meet Leo's requirements, Sylvia had to help him find a new metal mask for dance parties and put it on for him.

While helping Leo equip the armor and test its performance, Emily's eyes looked at the file bag placed on the table from time to time. The expressions of hesitation, rejection and expectation changed back and forth on her face, making her inner

The struggle is palpable.

After getting this document about her past from Sylvia, Emily struggled internally. On the one hand, some memory fragments kept flashing in her mind, urging her to open the document bag and regain the past.

On the other hand, her inner instinct prevented her from retrieving her memories, as if the memories of the past were a scourge.

More than an hour passed in this state of confusion, and Emily still had not made the final decision. At this time, the knight armor that Sylvia prepared for Leo happened to be repaired and maintained, so she simply put down the document bag.

, first take the opportunity to help Leo put on the armor and calm down before talking.

"You should take a look." Sylvia helped fasten the hidden buckle on the back of the chest armor, then knocked on the steel plate of the back armor and gave advice.

After Emily heard this suggestion, she was stunned and looked at Sylvia hesitantly, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't.

Sylvia seemed to know what Emily was thinking. She stretched out her hand to touch Emily's cheek and said softly: "No matter who you were in the past or what memories you have, it can't change your present. Could it be that you

Are you going to break off our relationship with me just because you found the memories of the past?"

Sylvia's intimate behavior in front of Leo made Emily blush a little. She secretly glanced at Leo and saw that Leo looked normal. She couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and then shook her head at Sylvia.

He shook his head and responded to the question just now.

Perhaps it was because Sylvia's words had an effect, or perhaps because she felt it was time for her to make a decision. She walked to the table, picked up the document bag, and shook her head vigorously.

As if he wanted to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, he opened the file bag without thinking, took out all the documents inside, and read it carefully in front of his eyes.

As the contents of the information were remembered bit by bit, Emily's scattered memory fragments were like rewoven rags, gradually returning to a complete form, even some that had not appeared before.

All the past memory fragments were reawakened and added to the incomplete memory map.

At this time, although the expression on Emily's face remained calm, and she personally felt as if the information she was reading was not her past but the life of a stranger, her eyes could not stop looking outward.
