Chapter 382
James hid beneath a rock by the cliff. His entire body was hidden in the cracks of the rock, and only hishead was left exposed. He used various kinds of plants to quickly fashion a makeshift covering for hishead. Even if someone passed by him, it was unlikely that they would notice him as long as heremained silent.
Below the cliff, a brigade was searching for him with torchlights. After his position had been blastedover the radio, more and more of his enemies gathered around the area. There were at least threethousand 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 thatwas 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!” novelbin
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 atthe 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 theirtarget 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.
The men climbing the mountain unwittingly set them off.
Boom!
The sound of a loud blast rang through the air.
The cliff came crashing down.
Many below were crushed, and their bodies were mangled beyond recognition. “Retreat! Retreat!There’s a bomb!”
The brigade quickly retreated. At central command at Mt. Thunder, the commander-in-chief in his blackovercoat cursed,” Useless! All these idiots are useless! There are a hundred thousand of them andthey can’t even capture a single guy after taking so long? Relay my orders. Send in the bombers andflatten the entire place.” “We shouldn’t, sir!”
A general hurriedly explained, “This isn’t a game. The Black Dragon army will be alerted if we send inthe bombers. Once they mobilize, this could spark a war. Our nations aren’t capable of withstanding the
wrath of the Black Dragon army.” “He’s right! We cannot do this.”
“Commander-in-chief, we have placed our sentinels in every area. We’re slowly closing in on the BlackDragon. Before daybreak, he will be trapped in the encirclement. There’ll no place left for him to run.”
The generals from different countries tried their best to dissuade the commander.

He was a general of Yanville. A year ago, his brother was killed by the Black Dragon at Mt. ThunderPass. 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 theBlack Dragon’s able to stay hidden. Once the sun rises, he’ll have nowhere no hide. His hours arenumbered.”
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 sentinelsguarding every critical spot.
