Chapter 662


    “ck Dragon, Sol needs you!”


    “The Soleans need you!”


    “Sol needs your protection!” Their voices rang in unison. Though there were many specialized police


    units maintaining order, they did not stop the crowd from requesting the ck Dragon to return to the


    battlefield.


    Themotion outside attracted the attention of many.


    A few big shots walked out. As did Quincy. She saw the thousands upon thousands of people holding


    the banners up high. There were names written in blood on them. They implored the ck Dragon to


    come out of retirement and return to the battlefield to stem the tide of the battle. Thea nced at


    Quincy and pushed her to the front.


    “I don’t know where he is. She’s the ck Dragon’s girlfriend. Ask her.” Quincy froze. Immediately, she


    recalled how she colluded with James by putting on an act to create the impression that she was his


    girlfriend. The crowd was stunned.


    “Wasn’t the ck Dragon rumored to have a rtionship with Thea?”


    “What? The ck Dragon has a different girlfriend?”


    None of them were aware of this.


    “Miss, may I know where the ck Dragon is?”


    They all looked at Quincy. “I-I don’t know.”Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.


    Quincy shook her head.


    James was inside the building. However, since he did not show himself, she would not dare reveal his


    identity.


    Saying that, she turned and entered the hotel.


    At a rest area of the hotel…


    Quincy walked over to James, who was ying games on his phone, and said, “There are many


    citizens outside carrying banners. Their names are written in blood on the banners. They’re requesting


    that you return to the battlefield.” “Oh? Is that so?”


    James put his phone down and looked at Quincy. “Names written in blood?”


    “Yes.”


    Quincy nodded. “The situation is grim at the border. The Southern ins City has fallenst night. The


    ck Dragon army suffered many casualties and retreated three hundred kilometers ind.”


    “That serious?”


    James was shocked.


    He had switched his phone off and went to sleepst night. He was unaware of what was going on.


    Although there were many missed calls from Henry after he switched his phone on in the morning, he


    paid no heed to them.


    He immediately tapped into a browser.


    There was a dedicated page on the Southern ins border at the top of the browser. In it, there was


    thetest news on the situation on the battlefield. There was even a donation page that was funding the


    war effort. The total sum had already reached hundreds of billions.


    Scrolling through thetest developments of the war, James’ face darkened.


    ‘The ck Dragon army suffered a devastating defeat?’ This was the first in a decade.


    “Whew!”


    He took a deep breath,


    “Not to worry. The ck Dragon army isn’t the only force avable to the Empire of Sol. There are still


    the Blithe army, the Red me army, and others. Forces from all military regions are assembling to


    reinforce the Southern ins as we speak. The twenty-eight nations are no threat to us.”


    The Southern ins and the ck Dragon army were all that were on James’ mind.


    However, he was no longer the ck Dragon nor themander-in-chief of the ck Dragon army.


    There was no use worrying.


    He believed that Sol would send capable generals to the battlefield to turn the tides of the war.


    “Will everything be fine?”


    Anxious, Quincy asked, “Will the twenty-eight nations fight from the Southern ins to beyond the


    borders of the country?”


    “Impossible.”


    James shook his head. “You’re overthinking things. The military power of Sol is unrivaled in the world.


    The twenty-eight nations are mere tiny, uninhabited nations. Even if theybine their forces, they are


    no match for us. This is, at most, an armed border engagement. It’s far from being arge-scale


    operation. If Sol goes all out, the twenty-eight nations will be wiped off the map.”


    As the formermander-in-chief, James was well aware of Sol’s military power.


    If it was not for the fact that international treaties forbade the use of weapons of mass destruction, there


    was no way the twenty-eight nations would dare invade Sol.


    Hearing this, Quincy was relieved. Thousands of citizens knelt outside. They believed the ck Dragon


    was right here in Cansington Hotel. That was because they knew that he had a special rtionship with


    Thea. There was no way he would not be here at Thea’s birthday banquet.


    However, Thea really did not know where the ck Dragon was.


    She had no other option.


    “Please rise. The ck Dragon isn’t here. I don’t know where he is,” Thea said exasperatedly.
