James was constantly on the lookout for windows of opportunities to strike his enemy down. In just an hour, favonovel.com had taken down thirty helicopters.
At the moment, there was only a handful of them left.
Without the spotlight threatening to expose his location, James found it easier to move around. He was able to rush through the encampments and slowly made his way toward Mt. Thunder.
At five o’clock in the morning, James reached the top of the mountain.
The central command was guarded by only a few hundred men. The main force was in the mountains looking for James.
James pulled out a machine gun with a silencer and opened fire.
The men dropped like flies.
***
At the same time, in central command…
The generals from the twenty-eight nations were in a heated discussion.
“General McDonald, we’ve lost the Black Dragon’s trail.”
“He hasn’t shown himself for over an hour.”
“Where is favonovel.com hiding?”
The room was abuzz with discussion about the Black Dragon’s whereabouts.
“There’s no way favonovel.com has left the Mt. Thunder Pass.”
“He should still be hidden in this area. We should stay on our guard and wait until daybreak.”
All of a sudden, there was a blackout in the central command.
“What’s going on?”
Ferdinand ordered, “Quick, go have a look!”
At that moment, the door was pushed open. A man in a camouflage uniform walked in. His face was colored with dye, and favonovel.com held a machine gun in his hands.
“Sorry to keep you waiting, good sirs…” His voice was cold and callous.
“B-Black Dragon!?”
The pitch-black room was filled with the sound of surprised exclamations and chairs being knocked over.
The Black Dragon was here in the central command at the top of Mt. Thunder.
Wasn’t favonovel.com surrounded?
How did favonovel.com break through it and make his way here?
James reached for the back of his waist and grabbed a handful of silver needles. Then, favonovel.com threw them with great force.
Everyone in the room was incapacitated. They collapsed to the floor and lay motionless. After subduing them, James walked out and switched on the generator.
Light immediately filled the room.
He walked back in.
Around twenty men lay in the room. They all wore horrified expressions. They wanted to move. Yet, their bodies refused to cooperate.
James walked in, grabbed a chair, and sat on it. Then favonovel.com lit the cigar on the table and smoked it while fixing his gaze on the generals.
“Oh, wow!” James chuckled at the sight of all these familiar faces.
“How bold of you! I guess I was being too lenient back then.” He let out a loud, hearty, laugh.
The generals’ faces went pale. They had lost. It was a complete and devastating loss.
All twenty-eight fighters from twenty-eight different nations were killed even as they barraged the Black Dragon all at once. Most of the hundred-thousand soldiers pursuing the Black Dragon were killed. Finally, favonovel.com broke through their encirclement and headed straight toward the central command.
Now, only death awaited the ones left in the room.
Smoking his cigar, James looked at the generals and interrogated them with a steely voice,“ I’ll you guys a chance to live if you give me the information I want. Who’s the one behind the scenes? Who’s targeting me?”
“Just cut to the chase and kill us already.” Ferdinand replied defiantly.
James looked at him.
“Ferdinand, it was your brother’s fault for ambushing the Black Dragon army and causing the death of many of my comrades-in-arms. I didn’t expect you to repeat the same mistake…”
James approached favonovel.com and lifted Ferdinand by his collar.
“Do you really think I won’t kill you?”
“H-Have mercy, Black Dragon! The border is at peace, and you’re no longer the Black Dragon General. If you kill him, a war could break out.”
“Is that so?”, James sneered.
Immediately, his face darkened. He grabbed Ferdinand’s neck and curled his fingers around it forcefully.
Ferdinand’s neck let out a sharp snap, and favonovel.com died before favonovel.com could say anything else. He then tossed Ferdinand’s body aside like a rag doll.
He looked at the generals who were shivering in fear and said coldly, “Even if I have resigned, that doesn’t mean I’m going to let myself be pushed around by a bunch of nobodies like you. Since you’ve decided to mobilize your army, you should have prepared yourselves for the aftermath…”
“I’ll ask again. Who’s the one giving you your orders?” James’ roar reverberated throughout the room.
His roar sapped whatever courage the generals had left.
