Chapter 1110

“How long more do you need?”

“A day or two perhaps.”

“Hurry.”

After briefly conversing with Blake, James hung up the phone.

Soon, he arrived at the military region. Along the way, the soldiers saluted him.

In the Emperor’s office in the military region…

James was sitting on a chair with a few one-star generals standing before him. He scanned them and

asked, “Who was the one in charge of the Red Flame Army after the previous Emperor’s death?”

Nathaniel took a step forward and said, “That would be General Micah.”

“Tell him that I’d like to see him,” James said.

He scrutinized the information he obtained about the generals of the Red Flame Army.

Braxton Micah was a fifty-five-year-old three-star general.

“Understood.”

“You’re dismissed.”

James waved, and the generals left.

However, Nathaniel remained.

James glanced at him and asked, “Is something the matter?”

Wearing a smile, Nathaniel asked, “Sir, do you intend to weed out the remnants of the previous

Emperor?”

James looked at him with a slight grin and said, “Remnants or not, it is our duty to serve the people and

the nation. However, I believe the time has come to reorganize the Red Flame Army. After all, I don’t

want any incorrigible, corrupted figures in the army.”

“In that case, allow me to present you the evidence I have collected,” Nathaniel whispered.

“Oh?”

James’ curiosity was piqued.

Nathaniel handed him a USB drive and said, “These are evidence that I’ve secretly collected all these

years. Many big shots in the military region were involved. I was worried I would get into trouble, so I

kept it to myself.”

James glanced at the USB drive. He was not in a hurry to accept it and asked, “Are you not afraid of

getting into trouble now?”

Wearing a grim expression, Nathaniel said, “You were the Dragon King of the Southern Plains and

have never assumed any position in the Capital. Besides, I believe in your character. The state would

be reluctant to act considering that many powerful figures would be arrested. Now that you’re the

Emperor, I believe that you’ll not have mercy on them.”

“I understand. You’re free to go.” Accepting the USB drive, James waved slightly.

Nathaniel turned to leave.

After leaving the office, sweat beaded on his forehead.

He was fearful. After all, his future could be ruined. He might even become the target of a reprisal.

However, he had heard of James’ character and some insider information.

The King had manipulated James into killing the previous Emperor. Since James was still alive andnovelbin

was now the new Emperor, it could only mean that the King had begun making a move. He would be

shaking up the Capital before the next election.

Nathaniel chose to have faith in James. If James truly was a corrupted figure, he could only accept his

fate.

James looked at the USB drive in his hand, eager to know what was inside it. He inserted it into the

computer before hurriedly pulling it out as if reminded of something.

This was a computer in the previous Emperor’s office. Something might have been wrong with it. It

would be safer for him to look into it once he returned.

He leaned on the chair in thought. Just then, his phone vibrated.

James pulled out his phone. It was an unknown number.

[What happened?]

He immediately knew it was Madelyn.

[Something unexpected happened. I’ll arrange for another meeting. Wait for my news,] he swiftly

replied to the message.
