Semua Bab The Almighty Dragon General: Bab 1121 - Bab 1130

Braxton left. He knew that he was walking on a tightrope. The consequences would be fatal if he made a blunder. However, he did not have a choice. For twenty years, he cooperated not only with the Tuckson family but also with many others. If James got to the bottom of this, he would be doomed even if he did not do anything wrong. However, he also knew that the dynamics in the Capital are complex and would get many involved. He believed that James would not act recklessly. After all, he could not deal with the ramifications. At the same time, James was at the Red Flame Army’s headquarters scrutinizing information concerning the Tucksons sent by Maxine. The Tucksons were a huge family that had established itself in the Capital for centuries. They possessed great authority and incredible wealth. Their members assumed many positions in the army and the political realm. Glancing at it, James said coldly, “The Tucksons are considered a powerful force. Guess I’ll make a move on them

“I want money.” Helping her mother up, Delilah looked at Halvor and said, “Give me 100 million dollars and help me clear all of my debt. In return, I’ll give you the information.” Though she did not know what technology his stepfather’s company had made a breakthrough in, she knew it would be worth a fortune. Otherwise, the Tucksons would not have gone to such lengths. After all, they risked antagonizing the Emperor for this. “Sure.” Halvor did not hesitate. To him, they were already dead. He would agree to whatever conditions they put forward. “First, get us a doctor to treat our injuries,” Delilah said with a frustrated look on her face. Her expression, which seemed to be one of resignation and helplessness, managed to fool Halvor. He thought that Delilah had information regarding the technological breakthrough and was ready to hand them over to him out of fear. However, Delilah was an actress, whose acting skills were top-notch. “Sure.” Halvor nodded and immediately or

Hearing that they were about to fight against the Red Flame Army, the Tucksons panicked. “What else can I do then?” Halvor’s face darkened. James’ army was already outside the district. The Tucksons would be over if he does not resort to extreme measures. “We should remain calm, Father. James is different from other generals. He’s the commander-in-chief of the Black Dragon Army and the Dragon King. He climbed the ranks by stepping on the corpses of his enemies. Why would he be afraid of mere mercenaries?” “Exactly.” The Tucksons tried convincing Halvor. Halvor composed himself. He immediately pulled his phone out and called the Secretary-General. “Secretary-General, why is James here outside my house with an army? Request an audience with the King and ask him to order James to retreat.” A hoarse voice came from the phone and said, “Halvor, do you still not understand the situation? Why did the King make James the Emperor? That’s because he wields the Blade of Justice. H

A cornered dog would inevitably lash out. James was worried Halvor would do something reckless. Since he was currently in the Capital and was unable to concern himself with the affairs in Cansington, he immediately called Thea and instructed her to order the God-King Palace to step up their security measures to protect the Callahans, Quincy, and the others in Messiah Corporation. “How dare you arrest me, James? Do you know who I am? Do you know what I’m capable of?” Even as Halvor was taken away, he continued shouting. However, James paid no heed to him. He looked at Delilah who was bloodied all over and apologized, “I’m sorry I was late.” “I-It’s alright…” Caressing her bloodied forehead, Delilah said, “Thank you for arriving on time. Otherwise, my mother and I…” James waved slightly. “It’s the least I could do. I will ask someone to send you to the hospital first. Once I’m done resolving the matter, I’ll visit you.” Henry immediately ordered, “Send her to the hospital.”

Outside Hope Villa District… Three thousand fully armed mercenaries surrounded the entire district. The security guards had been annihilated, except for three. They were kneeling on the ground, with guns pressed against their heads. Not too far away, a column of convoys was stopped in their tracks. Thousands of fully armed soldiers were on high alert. A man in a black jacket whose face was covered in scars was standing nearby the security room. Behind him were a dozen men, who were aiming their RPGs at the convoys. James approached. A soldier immediately presented him with his bulletproof vest. However, James waved slightly and politely declined. He walked over to Nott. “Halt.” With a loudspeaker in his hand, Nott yelled, “Take another step and we’ll open fire.” James stopped. A few shielded soldiers hurriedly walked over to James and handed him a loudspeaker. James lightly waved. “I do not need this.” Looking at Nott, James catalyzed True Energy and yelled, “Wh
