The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 947

Chapter 947

On the cliff...

Thea’s eyes frequently glanced down the cavern as she waited impatiently for James and Maxine to return.

After checking for the umpteenth time, she finally saw James climbing back up and excitedly chirped, "How did it go, Honey?"

James shook his head sadly.

"This cavern is bottomless, and the heat was searing hot down there.We couldn't go any deeper.I doubt grandpa would’ve survived."

Maxine climbed up after him.

James sighed and said dejectedly, "We're done here.Let's go back."

Since they could not find him, James did not intend to waste another second in this cavern.

Based on what he and Maxine had gleaned from the clues, he had a rough idea of what might have happened.

His grandfather was most likely still alive.He was still slightly dubious about Maxine’s theory.

James firmly believed that his grandfather would not bring harm him, or Thea.

The only thing he was unsure about was why his grandfather needed to come up with so many elaborate plots.

James turned around and left.

Thea followed after him.

After seeing them leave, the accompanying soldiers followed suit.

When they left the underground cavern, one of the soldiers took out a walkie-talkie and instructed the helicopters that had left to look for an appropriate landing spot to turn back.

Soon, the helicopters returned.

Not long later, everyone was brought back to the Nothern Border's military region.

Inside a military barrack...

The Centurion looked at James and asked, "Going back so soon?"

"Yeah." James nodded.

"The Capital is in a mess right now, and I’ve got to rush back to Cansington as soon as possible to handle some urgent matters."

The Centurion sighed and said, "I’ve heard about the Capital.As a member of the Cadens and the Dragon King that killed the Emperor, it'll be difficult for you to escape unscathed.You’ll need to take a step back to keep moving forward."

He stretched out his hand and thumped it loudly on James’ chest.

"I have faith in you.I’m sure you'll be able to resolve everything."

James smiled bitterly at him.

"Alright, that’s enough.Let’s drink again when we have a chance."
