Semua Bab The Almighty Dragon General: Bab 711 - Bab 720

James grabbed the controller beside him and pressed a button. The pitch-black room was immediately illuminated. Finally, he could see the man’s appearance. It was a man around forty years old. He had a round face and thick eyebrows. Standing before James, the man seemed like a ferocious tiger. He had a menacing look in his eyes. James could feel he was no ordinary man. He rarely, if ever, had this feeling. Only when faced with true power would he have such a feeling. That meant that the man before him possessed true power. Besides, the man was able to infiltrate the Black Dragon Palace without alerting the Black Dragon army guards. James said feebly, “Something happened.” “Aren’t you Asclepius? Can’t you save yourself?” The middle-aged man seemed doubtful. James did not answer his question. After all, he did not know who the man before him was. However, he could roughly guess. Only the King of Sol’s subordinates would be here at such a time, after all. All

”The most corrupt figure in Sol has met his downfall!” “Breaking news! It’s now confirmed that James had been the behind-the-scenes owner of Transgenerational Group in Cansington. The company has now dissolved, and all of James’ assets have been confiscated.” “Based on our calculations, he misappropriated funds amounting to 10 trillion dollars.” … News of James’ arrest spread like wildfire. It stunned the entire nation. James was brought onto the Red Flame army’s private plane. On the plane, James leaned against his seat, unable to exert a single ounce of strength. “You win,” he croaked. “What do you mean, James? As one of the five commanders-in-chief and the Dragon King, you should know better than to violate the law knowingly. As the commander-in-chief of the Red Flame army and the head of the Five Commanders, arresting you is merely performing my duty. Please do not blame me for this.” A mischievous grin crept up on the Emperor’s face. “Let Thea go… Give her the

James glanced at the Emperor and spoke in a frail voice, “Thank you for your concern. I’m doing well, for now.” The Emperor smiled. “You’ll be on public trial tomorrow. All of your crimes will be listed. Say… Do you think you’ll be executed?” James looked at the Emperor and said nothing. Even though he was furious, he remained composed. After all, he did not wish to waste his strength. The Emperor continued, “You’ll be on trial in another eight hours. Since your position is simply too high, considering that you’re the commander-in-chief of the Southern Plains and the Dragon King, your trial will be judged by the remaining four commanders-in-chief, the General-Secretary, and the Chief Executive. Do you wish to die or spend the remainder of your life in this dark and damp cell?” James took a deep breath and asked, “I have never crossed you or the big shots in the Capital. I’m just minding my own business in the Southern Plains. Why are you so fixated on removing me?” James wa

“The trial will now begin.” With that, the long-awaited trial began. The vast courthouse was silent. Everyone’s gaze was fixed on James. Some pitied him, although most were apathetic. “C-Can I have something to eat?” James opened his eyes with great difficulty. The glaring lights blinded him. Though his voice was frail, it reverberated throughout the silent courthouse. Seeing this, many wept, especially Quincy. She knew that James served the people wholeheartedly. Though he had resigned, he chose to return to the battlefield without the slightest bit of hesitation. In the end, however, this was how he was treated. She stood up and voiced her dissatisfaction tearfully. “Although James is guilty, you have no right to torture him under Solean law. Is this how you treat a man who performed great meritorious service for the country?” Quincy’s voice boomed. The Emperor stood up and hurriedly explained, “I apologize for the neglect of our prisoner’s condition. We were so

“He’s wearing a black robe… He’s a general of the Southern Plains! What is he trying to accomplish by appearing with the Blade of Justice at James’ trial? Is he trying to exonerate James with the sword?” The crowd was heatedly in a discussion. Meanwhile, James sat at the defendant’s stand and smiled. Seeing the Blade of Justice, the Emperor’s face darkened. Under the watchful gaze of the crowd, Henry announced, “Though Sol is a country with a rule of law, many are able to escape justice by finding loopholes. The Blade of Justice serves to execute these wicked criminals and give them what they deserve.” Henry said with great confidence, “The Black Dragon, commander-in-chief of the Black Dragon army, has upheld Solean law by executing all those who escaped justice. The former heads of the Great Four of Cansington were executed due to a massacre ten years ago. “Ten years ago, the Cadens, the most powerful and influential family in Cansington, were burned alive.
