in the name of the queen.

Chapter 245 The new identity of the female agent

On March 1793, 3, the 1-strong army of the Republic of Jinyuan was organized into four legions and marched south in four routes. Among them, the commander of the third legion serving as the forward was General Deschamps, a famous general of the country, who had served as an army general since the old empire.

General Deshang was Jin Yuan's most famous general. No one found it strange that he would serve as the sharpest blade of the giant sword composed of 400,000 people.

What surprised people was that Marco was actually willing to use Deschamps, who was already in a semi-retired state and had a neutral attitude and did not take sides at all.

Marco, who has always valued his position, made an exception by using Deschamps, which shows that he attaches great importance to this battle.

When there is no large-scale war, except for unusual countries like Nubia, which still retain the title of marshal, the highest military rank in most mainstream countries is general.

The four armies, except Marco's first army which was behind and Deschamps' third army, and the second and fourth armies on the flanks were all commanded by an army lieutenant general.

This lineup can be called a national battle, and Marco is serious this time.

Of course it wasn't Alina he wanted to deal with.

He has a long-term vision, and he will use the opportunity of counterinsurgency to wipe out all opponents.

If they want to leave, they have to pay an exit tax.

Thinking of this, Pires, who was loyal to Marco, couldn't help but curse.

No matter how good the Jin Yuan Kingdom is, what does it have to do with them who are about to be guillotined at any time?
They are just ordinary people who want to live a peaceful life. Is this too much?

She has never done anything to disgrace the organization. She is collecting information in the town with peace of mind, monitoring the nearby lords, sorting out the information, and waiting for someone from the top to pick it up.

A country with such strength would not be so crazy, and neither would those who dare to take risks.

Marco took away most of the elites. The long city walls of the City of Xidai could not be fortified everywhere. The soldiers who defended the city turned a blind eye to the fleeing citizens and only let go what they could.

If there really is such a stupid person, he will have a chance to make meritorious deeds.

Just when General Pires was bored, an inconspicuous carriage entered the city of Xidai amid the crowd.

I'm afraid these people don't know that Xidai City is now a prison. It's easy to enter the city but difficult to get out.

If he doesn't nod, who dares to open the city and release people?
They asked these unscrupulous people to pay a maintenance tax of 5 livres, but no one was willing to do so. They also said that there was no such provision in the tax law. Were it not for President Marco's extraordinary prestige, they would even dare to take to the streets to cause trouble.

The old aristocrats and the greedy businessmen who are sucking the blood of the country must all die!

Of course, the soldiers did not mind letting these unscrupulous people show their loyalty to the country if they did not pay a leaving fee of 5 livres per head.

Pires even hoped that someone would do this.

Take advantage of Marco's absence and find an opportunity to run away.

This is what many people really think.

She was really aggrieved.

He has more than 30,000 city defense troops under his command. He is not afraid even if 100,000 people besiege the city. There is no need to use these unruly people as cannon fodder.

Paying the money and leaving got President Marco's tacit approval.

Pires put down his telescope and thought hard.

Pires walked towards the official residence, the smile on his lips became more teasing.

This group of unscrupulous people may not know that this money is the stabilization tax they are resisting.

When the counter-rebel troops moved south, many people took the opportunity to leave Xidai City.

After returning to the official residence, Pires returned to the office and started to deal with today's work.

No money? Then stay and do hard labor to repair the city defense or directly become cannon fodder for the city defender.

Looking at the citizens who kept leaving in a hurry, Major General Pires, the commander-in-chief of the city defense army, stood on the top of the city tower and observed carefully with a telescope. There was a sneer on the lips.

A female agent who has lost contact with her superiors on a single line. She appears to be a bard but is actually a golden knight who is causing trouble behind enemy lines.

Despite all the slander, Pires did not let down his guard.

Lilith, who was worried inside, could not sleep every night, fearing that she would be taken away and "destroyed" by the men in black who were responsible for cleaning up the team when she woke up.

Unfortunately not.

They may still have confidence in the country's future, but they are uneasy about whether they will be able to see the sun tomorrow.

He would send out scouts to patrol around the city of Xidai every day to prevent daring old nobles from causing trouble while the president was away.

He just saw that among the waves of people leaving the city, there were also several carriages and many pedestrians walking in from outside the city.

More importantly, who dares to attack La Cité? Is this crazy?

However, he never imagined that Lilith was not a prostitute, but a young girl.

The President is still too cautious.

The carriage had only two passengers.

The most likely outcome for intelligence personnel who have lost contact is to be quietly disposed of.

Five livres is not a small sum, it is equivalent to 5 grams of gold. The savings can even sustain the expenses of ordinary citizens of La Cité for two and a half years.

Just a few days ago, Adam, who had been depressed for a long time, thought that Miss Lilith was a prostitute, so he used three livre gold coins as reward to relieve his stress.

Marco is confident about the future, but ordinary people in Cité City don't think so.

If you don't want to stay, get out!

It was the organization that abandoned her, not her betrayal of the organization.

She wasn't accompanying Adam for money, she was just half uneasy and half scared and wanted to vent.

How could she die without even being a woman at such a young age?

Adam thought he was consuming, but in Lilith's eyes he was the one being consumed.

The young and handsome bard, with his calm but evil temperament, gave the anxious young female agent some peace of mind.

When the sunshine woke them up the next day, both of them were a little confused.

Adam is not a junior brother, so of course he can feel that Lilith is inexperienced, but he couldn't stop being dominated by Xiaotou last night, and he didn't realize until dawn that things were getting serious.

How to do?
It would be easier to deal with it if she was a prostitute, but Lilith is a decent girl, so she can't just slap her butt and run away.

In terms of relationships, Adam doesn't want to owe anyone anything, and every transaction is a fair transaction.

But this time he couldn't afford it.

Looking at the blood stains on the sheets, Adam panicked.

If Lilith asked him to take responsibility, he really didn't know how to deal with it.

No matter how expensive a prostitute is, she has a price, but a girl's innocence is priceless.

Marry her?
He has a special status, so it's okay to marry a foreign girl, but it's definitely not okay to marry an agent. Even if Governor Roland doesn't interfere, he will let him leave the Knights.

His career was about to end.

He and Lilith had no basis for any relationship. They just had a one-night fling. Normally, he shouldn't think about it so much, but the image of Lilith wearing a wedding dress always appeared in his mind.

Damn!

Facing the morning light and looking at Lilith's delicate face after taking off her makeup, Adam was surprised to find that she used makeup every day to hide her true appearance.

Thinking of the passion that went from unfamiliarity to compatibility last night, his heart was in confusion.

Just when Adam was hesitating about how to deal with the aftermath, Lilith bit her lip and said softly but firmly:

"Protect me to Xidai, and we'll be clear."

In this way, they went north together.

Adam knew very well that there was no way to tell the truth.

In order to save money, they rented a carriage and stayed in a hotel, becoming more and more familiar with each other.

When entering Xidai City, they, who had been in love for a long time, ignored the agreement to settle matters when they arrived in Xidai City and continued to walk together. Lilith tried her best to find out the news about Shangfeng.

died.

Because Intelligence Director Allen was assassinated, the furious President Marco purged the intelligence system. Unfortunately, her superior was on the purge list.

After three days of queuing, I finally got a spot to use the guillotine and hit the road.

To be fair, Lilith didn't even know Shangfeng's name. They just had a working relationship, so it wasn't that hard to say.

While at a loss, she suddenly discovered a more serious problem.

What about her future?
With Shangfeng's death, she was unable to prove her identity and became an unstable factor. Once discovered, she would definitely be eliminated.

Strictly speaking, she is not an employee of the Intelligence Bureau, but just a downline person who has been promoted to the top.

With Shangfeng's death, the contract was terminated and she was temporarily free.

free? free!
Lilith was completely confused.

She never went to school, and all the knowledge she learned came from the agent training camp. In that camp, where the elimination rate and death rate were very high, she was lucky enough to stand out, but was placed in a small town to serve as a hidden stake.

I thought my life would be arranged like this, but I didn't expect freedom to come so suddenly.

Freedom is not a necessity of life, but the most expensive luxury.

When freedom knocks on the door, poor Lilith is at a loss.

She didn't know when she would be exposed or when she would be captured and destroyed.

This suffocating pressure is worse than death.

She returned to the hotel in despair, opened the door, and saw Adam standing on the balcony leisurely admiring the street view.

Although she didn't know Adam's true identity, she knew that the bard was a cover, and the aura of his peers was too obvious.

If it were before, she would have watched Adam very carefully, and even considered whether to hand him over to the Intelligence Bureau in exchange for some credit.

But now things have changed.

She herself is a suspicious person, so why take the risk.

Feeling Lilith's return, Adam did not look back, but sighed faintly:

"The sunshine in Xidai City is still so beautiful, but it's a pity that the city has lost its vitality."

Lilith's fingertips trembled slightly, she lowered her head suddenly, and touched her belt with her right hand.

Her hidden dagger is there.

Adam's words were meaningless, but he was hinting to Lilith that he was here to cause trouble.

The moment her right hand subconsciously touched the dagger, Lilith was stunned. She couldn't find a reason to draw the dagger at all.

"Since you didn't draw your sword last time, is it still necessary now?"

Adam turned around slowly, his gentle eyes fell on Lilith, and his voice was particularly soft.

The soft words exploded in Lilith's heart, making her hands and feet weak.

The few words he wanted to say to defend himself were blocked on his lips.

So he had noticed it a long time ago?
Lilith smiled self-deprecatingly, thinking of Adam's rough action of throwing her belt and pants away on the first night.

He really knows everything.

Since death was certain, the day didn't seem to matter.

That's good, at least Adam won't abuse her.

Lilith said with dull eyes: "You are right, I did want to kill you that night. You are an unidentified intelligence agent and you are spreading rumors. Of course I want to do it."

"Then why did you change your mind?" Adam asked calmly.

"I've lost my organization."

Perhaps because she could not see the hope of life, Lilith almost gave up on herself and talked about the assassination of the intelligence chief and the purge of Shangfeng.

She knew very well that there was no way she could defeat her opponent without sneak attacks.

She is not known for her fighting ability.

Even if it was just to silence her, she would have to die immediately.

Since she was about to die, what else did she care about? Her life was so pitiful, she was trained as an agent, and then arranged to be a backbone in a small town.

She has no friends, no family, and she dare not hope for love and marriage.

She is not a person, but a tool.

The organization just uses her as a consumable, like an observation post placed in a small town.

In all these years, these were the only nights she felt like a human being.

Although he was just greedy for her young and beautiful body, Adam was really gentle. Even though he knew she was an agent, he once had murderous intentions.

Even if it's just lustful, this tenderness is enough to reflect carefully on the trip to the Styx.

After telling the story, Lilith raised her head and showed off her graceful curves.

"I'm done, you can take action."

"Do it? Come on, it's daytime." Adam teased with a smile.

Lilith opened her eyes and looked at Adam with some confusion, "I have had murderous intentions towards you."

"I know, so you owe me your life."

"Well, I'm ready to repay, please be gentle." Lilith suddenly felt a little tired. There was really nothing left for her to miss in this world.

"Since you owe me your life, then use your life to repay it."

Although she knew this was the ending, Adam's words still made Lilith feel a little disappointed.

This world is what it is, and it’s not worth lingering on.

She closed her eyes, feeling Adam's approaching footsteps, smelling his unique scent, and her heartbeat inexplicably accelerated a bit.

His thick hands were touching her neck, and it seemed that he was planning to strangle her to death with his own hands.

Lilith was relieved.

Just as she was waiting for death, her lips were covered with fiery warmth.

She wanted to struggle, but she couldn't use any strength at all.

Although they had only been together for a few days, he understood all her weaknesses.

Since you can't resist, just enjoy the last lingering moment.

The girl thought in despair.

Just when she thought she was about to be stripped naked and thrown onto the bed, Adam's lips slowly left.

The magnetic voice sounded in my ears like the sound of nature.

"I want to use this city as a gift to marry you. Will you accompany me?"

"I am willing."

The girl who found new hope in life burst into tears and fell asleep in the arms of her lover.

This is the end of the unknown agent's life.

From now on, she has a new identity, the bard's wife.
