The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 384

There only were a few hours left until daybreak.

He would not be able to last until then if he did not come up with a plan.

He was not a hundred percent sure that the central command was at the top of Mt. Thunder either.

However, the top of Mt. Thunder was logically a very strategic location. If he was the commander, he
too would choose to construct a temporary command center there.

That was because it was surrounded by cliffs on all sides. Not only that, it had a vantage point that was
easily defensible.

After getting a grasp of the situation, James began formulating his plan.

He closed his eyes, trying to remember the routes he had taken to deduce his current location and
distance relative to the top of Mt. Thunder.

Relying on memory alone was not a very reliable measure, but it was close enough.



His main conundrum now was that the enemy’s main forces were slowly cornering him. He needed to
think of a way to break the encirclement and he needed to do it fast. It was no longer possible for him
to sneak away unnoticed. On the flip side, getting to the top in his condition would be quite the task if
he showed himself now.

He chose to remain hidden. Meanwhile, the sky filled with more combat aircraft. Their bright spotlights
pierced the night sky like sweeping lasers.




James knew he was running out of time.

The area he was in was already in everyone’s crosshairs. If he did not leave in time, an army of a
hundred thousand men would be there to confront him in battle. Once the enemy launched a pincer
attack from all sides, there would be no escape for him. The moment the spotlight disappeared, he
swiftly leaped down the tree. Just as he landed, the spotlight once again returned to light up the trees.
He got on the ground in the bushes and lay motionless. Only after the spotlight had left the area did he
continue moving forward.

He slowly sneaked in the direction of the army and then attempted to go around them.

He eventually reached an area with many men surrounding him.

These fully-armed men wearing LED flashlights on their heads were conducting a blanket search of the
area. They systematically moved forward and shrunk the encirclement. James could tell from just the
lights that there were at least a thousand men there.

Finishing them off would not have been too difficult a task. The problem he faced was the helicopter
circling in the sky searching for the slightest hint of his whereabouts. Once the battle commenced, he’d
be immediately exposed to the relentless bombardment and machine gun fire of the helicopters. He
lifted his head and squinted the sky. There were at least ten helicopters.

“Tch, how annoying.”

James clicked his tongue under his breath. With the sniper rifle on his back, he surreptitiously made his
way to a cliff and hid in the bushes near a rock.

Then, he pulled out the rifle and set it up. It had a range of a thousand meters. Concealed, Jarnes
aimed at a helicopter in the sky. It was moving in the air lazily. He worked out the wind force, the drag,
and the helicopter’s speed in his mind. As the helicopter flew into his range, he opened fire.



The bullet pierced through the helicopter’s window and killed the pilot instantly. The helicopter spun out
of control and crashed to the ground.

Boom!

Upon impact with the ground, the helicopter exploded into a ball of flames. The surrounding dry grass
caught fire.

The fast-spreading flames lit up the pitch-black surroundings. At the sight James, who had been hidden
atop a cliff the entire time, smiled slightly. He quickly went back into hiding and continued searching for
more opportunities.

Soon, he found another one.

He opened fire once more and killed another helicopter pilot. That helicopter went down just as quickly
as the first.

The commotion attracted the attention of the nearby soldiers. They all knew the Black Dragon was in
this area and they hastily made their way there. In just a short amount of time, ten thousand men had
gathered there. Seeing this, James scowled.

He decided against remaining at the same spot for too long. He loaded up the rifle on his back again
and swiftly moved through the brush. At the top of Mt. Thunder, Ferdinand cursed upon receiving the
intelligence reports,” Worthless! All these men are worthless! How did he take down the helicopter by
himself?!” “General, this is the Black Dragon we’re talking about. Worry not, he might have the
advantage of blending into the terrain at night, but once the sun rises, he’ll be trapped like a rat.”

“That’s right. The twenty-eight-nation alliance has mobilized a hundred thousand men. There’s no way
the Black Dragon’s getting out of here alive.” “He’s as good as dead.”



“We just need to wait until daybreak.” Generals from the twenty-eight nations gathered in the central
command. As they had been defeated by James in the past, they were well aware of his strength. That
was why they remained composed. Once the sun rose, James would have nowhere else to hide.
Within this time, James had already exterminated a few sentinels in the area and managed to obtain a
rocket launcher.

He stood on a tree with a rocket launcher on his shoulder and aimed at a helicopter in the sky.

Boom!

He fired the rocket launcher.

It was a direct hit.

Another helicopter crashed to the ground.
