The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 1521

Lucjan smashed against the wall and collapsed to the ground. Then, he vomited a mouthful of blood. Wearing a

solemn expression, James walked toward Lucjan.

Lucjan slowly stood up and wiped off the blood trace on his lips. Then, looking at James, a mischievous grin crept up

on his face.

“Ten… Nine… Eight… Seven…”

He began a countdown.

James had a bad premonition about this.

“Three… Two… One…”

As Lucjan finished the countdown, James could feel a searing pain coming from his palm. He lowered his head and

realized that his hand had turned black in color. His face paled, and he staggered backward. Immediately, he could

feel excruciating pain coming from all over his body, and he could no longer catalyze True Energy. The moment he

forcibly summoned True Energy, he collapsed to the ground and writhed in agony.

“Hahaha!”

Lucjan burst into a roar of laughter, “James, you are a million light years away from defeating me. Surely you didn’t

expect me to apply poison on the surface of my skin?”

“You…”

James opened his mouth. However, the excruciating pain prevented him from speaking.

Lucjan walked over to him and struck his acupuncture points.

James was subdued. As he was subdued, the Thousand-Machinery Formation stopped.

Ezekiel walked over to Lucjan and said smilingly, “As expected of you, Lucjan! Even the Thousand- Machinery

Formation couldn’t pin him down. You, on the other hand, easily subdued him.”

Lucjan smiled before ordering, “Men, lock him up. Inject the Gu venom into him after we have captured Thomas

Caden and the others.”

A few Gu Sect disciples walked over to them and forcibly dragged James away.

James was taken to a dark and damp dungeon. The ancient martial artists who came alongside James were also

imprisoned here.

Upon seeing James, Jackson sighed. “It’s over… Even James has been captured. Looks like we’re never going to

leave this place alive.”

Since James was struck in his acupuncture points, he could not move a single muscle. However, the excruciating

pain coming from within his body had subsided.

James heard Jackson’s sigh, but he did not respond immediately. Instead, he waited for the Gu Sect disciples to

leave before whispering, “Everyone, calm down. We’re just the vanguard. My grandfather and the Sect Leader of

the Celestial Sect aren’t even here yet. They will definitely think of a way to save us.”

James had given up.

At that moment, he could only rely on Thomas, Callan, and the Celestial Sect’s Sect Leader.

He cursed, “Damn that Lucjan! To think that he applied poison on himself… I was immediately poisoned

after making contact with him. That was why I got captured.

“Argh…”

An excruciating pain coming from within his body contorted the expression on his face as he groaned in

agony.

Meanwhile, outside…

Callan and Thomas, who had followed close behind James, were waiting by the entrance. However, hours passed

and there were still no signs of their return.

Wearing a solemn expression, Callan said, “It’s been a few hours. Why aren’t they back yet? Did something

happen?”

Thomas’ face darkened, and he nodded slightly, saying, “They must have fallen into Lucjan’s traps.

However, they should still be safe for now. Lucjan must have known that we were following close behind. If they kill

them all, they won’t be able to lure us in.”

“I’ll go have a look.”

Callan headed toward the entrance.

Thomas did not stop him. After Callan entered the passageway, he followed in. As he knew there would be danger

inside, he allowed Callan to take the lead.

After they entered the passageway, another person appeared.

It was Tobias.

A mischievous grin crept up on his face. “Go on… Fight on till you’re completely exhausted…”

Meanwhile, Thea, who was wearing a mask, was staring at the entrance.

Upon seeing Tobias, her face darkened, and she murmured, “I didn’t expect Tobias to be here as well. It seems

James is in danger.”

“Very good.” A smile crept up on Lucjan’s face, and he said, “Lure him to the Thousand-Machinery Formation.”

After Bennett destroyed the surveillance cameras, Thomas walked over to him. Looking at him, he asked, “Why are

you here?”

Bennett said, “James pleaded for me to come. If not for him, I wouldn’t have bothered coming.”

Thomas made a welcoming gesture and said, “Callan Maverick is right ahead. He still is as reckless as ever. Though

he knew that James had fallen into Lucjan’s trap, he still waltzed in here like nobody’s business. In any case,

proceed with caution and destroy every surveillance camera hidden in the corners. I’ll guard your back.”

“Mhm.”

Bennett did not say much and proceeded deeper into the passageway.

With Thomas’ reminder, he was now on guard. He kept scrutinizing his surroundings and destroying surveillance

cameras whenever he saw them.

At that moment, Callan had arrived at the underground palace where the Thousand-Machinery Formation was.

Upon seeing the mess on the ground, he speculated that a fierce battle must have occurred here a moment ago.

He looked at the passageway before him and hesitated briefly before walking toward it.
