The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 850

Chapter 850

Reporters from all over were present.

Everyone wanted the latest scoop and to hear about James’ brave exploits.

Henry’s arrival signaled the beginning of the press conference.

Henry briefly explained the events of last night, "All this while, the Black Dragon Army has been secretly investigating the Emperor, the commander-in-chief of the Red Flame Army.After a thorough investigation, we have managed to collect evidence detailing the Emperor’s crimes.Despite allowing him a chance to turn himself in peacefully, the Emperor resisted arrest and even injured many of our law enforcement personnel.As such, he had to be killed on the spot."

Though everyone knew that something of great significance was going to be announced today, they did not expect it to be about the Emperor’s demise.

Henry’s words stunned the crowd.

A high-ranking official immediately stood up and spit out a question, "Even if the Emperor is guilty of certain crimes, the Black Dragon Army has no right to take things into their own hands.Who permitted you to arrest the Emperor?"

"The Emperor is the head of the five commanders-in-chief.His arrest would require much discussion and deliberation by the relevant authorities.Black Shadow, you are a mere one-star lieutenant of the Black Dragon Army.You have no right to arrest the Emperor.Before putting him on trial, you weren’t supposed to shoot him so thoughtlessly."

As the Emperor was the head of the five commanders-in-chief, he had many political allies.

This was why upon hearing of the Emperor’s death, a few high-ranking officials attempted to shift the blame onto Henry.

The Chief Executive and the Secretary-General were also present at the press conference.

They had some idea about the events the night before.

Throughout the press conference, they remained silent.

Henry knew he would be bombarded with questions from naysayers and the Emperor’s yes-men.

Facing the reporters and the crowd, he spoke, "You are right, I have no authority to order the arrest of the Emperor.However, the Emperor was executed using the Blade of Justice.I was just a participant during last night’s mission.I wasn’t the one wielding the Blade of Justice.The identity of the wielder is strictly confidential.For obvious reasons, I won't be disclosing his identity."

Hearing this, the ones standing up for the Emperor suddenly shut their mouths.

The Blade of Justice represented the highest authority of Sol.

The wielder had the right to kill without asking any questions.

At that moment, the Secretary- General stepped forward to add, "The state has been conducting an investigation into the Emperor for quite some time now.It was only after internal deliberations that the Emperor's arrest was ordered."

The Chief Executive stood up to pipe in, "Next, we shall expose the Emperor’s crimes for all to see."

The entirety of Sol went wild upon hearing the news.

"What? The Emperor is dead?"

"It’s true.The state even held a press conference.It seems that the Black Dragon Army was headed to the Emperor’s Mansion to arrest him.The Emperor chose not to leave quietly and resisted arrest as well as hurt many law enforcement officers.As such, he was executed by the Blade of Justice right where he stood."

At the same time, at the Johnstons...
