Female Novel
Chapter 1072
He definitely could not use the Red Flame Army to investigate or ask the King for assistance since he
did not want him to know about his following plans.
On the other hand, there were several unofficial channels he could put to use, including Jay’s
intelligence network, the Dark Castle, the God-King Palace, and the Dragon Palace.
The intelligence network of the Red Flame Army must not be used to investigate.
Unfortunately, Jay’s intelligent network had not penetrated the Capital.
Meanwhile, the Dragon Palace had only been established not too long ago, and they were mainly
based overseas,
The only two that he could rely on were the Dark Castle and God-King Palace.
Compared to the God-King Palace, James had more trust in the Dark Castle.
He took out his phone and called Blake.
The call connected quickly, and Blake’s hoarse voice sounded from the phone. “James, it’s only been a
few days. How could I possibly get a result so quickly? Give me a few more days!”
James replied calmly, “I’m not calling to ask about the research facilities. I’ve got a list of important
personnel in the Red Flame Army. I need you to use the Dark Castle’s underground intelligence
network to check them for me. I need everything about them, including information about their
ancestors.”
“That’s so much easier.”
Blake smiled and said, “I’m an assassin and investigating people is my forte. I do detailed
investigations on my targets whenever I receive missions. I’ll give you a result within three days.”
James nodded and said, “Mhm. I’ll send the list to you in a bit. Pay attention and see if you receive it.”
After speaking, James hung up the phone.
Then, he photographed the list and sent it to Blake.
After sending it, he immediately deleted the message.
Next, James walked around the Red Flame Army base and left.
During this period, a piece of news was spreading throughout the Capital.
“Three days later, the newly appointed Emperor will hold a succession ceremony in the Red Flame
Army base.”
“I heard many people were invited, including all the bigwigs from the military and political circle.”
“Even the King will be attending.”
“He’s amazing. He’s serving as two commanders simultaneously. On top of that, he’s the Dragon King
of the Southern Plains and has more than a hundred cities that enemy countries have given as
compensation to our nation.”
“I heard that outsiders are also allowed to attend. However, attendees must have a pivotal figure in the
business world.”
Countless news spread, and the entire city discussed James’ appointment as the Emperor and his
succession ceremony.
Meanwhile, a young man rushed toward Lex at the Callahans’ villa in Cansington and shouted,
“Grandpa! Something happened! Something huge happened!”
Lex was sitting on the sofa reading his newspaper when he heard someone shouting for him. His face
darkened as he put down the newspaper, saying coldly, “Where are your manners? Do you not have
any regard for our house rules?”
“Grandpa! Haven’t you read the news? The morning news announced that the parliament had voted for
James as the new commander of the Red Flame Army. The official letter of appointment has been
completed. After it was issued, a press conference confirmed that James had always been the
commander of the Black Dragon Army and was even the Dragon King. He basically has the final say in
the Southern Plains. Also, three days from now, James will hold his succession ceremony at the Red
Flame Army base in the Capital.” Tommy was out of breath from running but still managed to blurt
everything out in one breath.
“What? Is this true?” Lex stood up abruptly, his wrinkled face showing visible shock.
“Of course, it’s true! The news has spread all over the country. It’s the main topic of discussion online
right now!” Tommy’s face flushed red from excitement.
The Dragon King of the Southern Plains, the commander of the Red Flame Army! The titles were
incredible!
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was the most powerful man in Sol.novelbin
Howard overhead their conversation while walking down the stairs and trembled uncontrollably as he
asked, “Tommy, is what you said true?”
“Absolutely, Dad! You can search the internet for the morning news. I told you James was putting on a
show last time when he was demoted. The purpose was to let the Emperor’s guard down. James had
been investigating the Emperor in secret! He’s the best! He even beheaded the commander of the Red
Flame Army!” Tommy said excitedly.
