The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 769

Chapter 769

After James paid his respects to the soldiers that had fallen in battle, he returned to the military hospital.

James was wracked with guilt over the dozens of lives that had sacrificed themselves for him. He was determined to continue to live life to the fullest in honor of the men that had perished. After everything had happened, it also further strengthened his resolve to devote his body to his homeland.

Inside the military hospital…

James took out the chest he found in the underground cavern from the cabinet.

The outer surface was black and had mysterious patterns carved on it.

The chest was sealed but it lacked a keyhole. Only under careful inspection would one notice. the numerous tiny pinholes dotted all over it.

James had discovered it in the cavern but did not get a chance to take a closer look due to the appearance of the mercenaries.

As he stared at the black chest, the Blithe King asked, “What’s this thing that you went through so much trouble to find?”

James shook his head. “I’m not sure either. I’ll have to open it to find out.”

The Blithe King said, “When you were unconscious, I tried to inspect it but couldn’t get it to open.”

Suddenly, a wire slid out of James’ sleeve.

James held onto the wire, and it immediately fell apart into numerous tiny silver needles.

He picked up one of the needles and gently inserted it into one of the pinholes on the chest.

The size was just right and the needle fit completely into the hole.

James picked up the rest of the needles and slowly inserted them into the pinholes, one after another.

The Crucifier had the exact amount of needles needed to fill all the holes on the chest.

Finally, James inserted the last needle.

Click!

The chest popped open. Inside the chest was a thick book.

The Blithe King and Quincy could not hide their curiosity as they peered together at the book’s

contents.

It was a yellowed book, and its cover had several ancient words etched on it.
