The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 382

Chapter 382

James hid beneath a rock by the cliff. His entire body was hidden in the cracks of the rock, and only his head was left exposed. He used various kinds of plants to quickly fashion a makeshift covering for his head. Even if someone passed by him, it was unlikely that they would notice him as long as he remained silent.

Below the cliff, a brigade was searching for him with torchlights. After his position had been blasted over the radio, more and more of his enemies gathered around the area. There were at least three thousand of them below.

Seeing the light below, James made a small smirk.

He quietly got up. Then, he placed the explosives he had just crafted between the cracks of a rock that was on the verge of falling

He perched atop a rock and quickly readied his sniper rifle.

Bang!

One of the men below was shot dead and crumpled to the ground.

“Enemy alert!”

Realizing that they were compromised, the men panicked. “Twelve o’clock! On that cliff!”

“Reporting to headquarters. We have found the Black Dragon. Request for backup. Line 182, Area C.”

As James emerged from hiding, countless torchlights illuminated the night sky. They were all pointed at the cliff before them.

After opening fire, James grabbed the gun and leaped several meters in the air. In the blink of an eye, he was at the top of the cliff.

Rat-tat-tat!

The machine gun on the helicopters sprayed the area around the cliff. Their bullets never found their target as James was already gone.

After he left, a few thousand men began to climb the mountain.

However, James had planted explosives on the cliff beforehand.

He was a general of Yanville. A year ago, his brother was killed by the Black Dragon at Mt. Thunder Pass. He’d sworn to get vengeance for his brother since that day. Now that the opportunity had arisen, he was not going to allow the Black Dragon to escape so easily. “It’s night-time now. That’s why the Black Dragon’s able to stay hidden. Once the sun rises, he’ll have nowhere no hide. His hours are numbered.”

Only upon hearing this did Ferdinand manage to reign himself back.

James had planned to make his escape once he killed a few more of his enemies.

He had been on the run constantly in the mountain.

Gradually, he noticed more and more people gathering around the area. There were also sentinels guarding every critical spot. He felt like he saw them every other step he took He was slowly getting trapped in the encirclement. Once surrounded, the enemy would work swiftly to close in on him. He was in dire straits. James hid in a big tree.

He grimly scanned his surroundings. He never once lost his cool. Instead, he constantly assessed the situation and kept thinking of ways to break through the encirclement.

As long as he could break through it, he could buy time until daybreak. Once the sun has risen and the Black Dragon army mobilizes, this mountain would turn into a graveyard for his

enemies. After serious contemplation, he took a deep breath. He could no longer conceal himself. He had no other choice than to take a head-on approach. After coming to that decision, he kept himself hidden while he waited for the perfect opportunity to strike. Soon, a squad appeared.

Another squad trailed close behind them, with many more drawing in from the distance.
