The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 522
It felt like the calm before the storm.
James had a strong feeling that Cansington would be chaos in no time.
All the different armies, political parties, and forces would be gathered there.
“May.”
“Yes, James?”
James drummed his fingers on the table, deep in thought.
“Is it possible for you to get in touch with any assassins from the Dark Castle?”
May nodded. “I could get in touch with some of them.”
James said, “Get in touch with them now. Say that you’re having trouble in Cansington and require backup.”
James had to recruit some experts.
Assassins from the Dark Castle were a solid choice.
“Got it.” May obeyed.
She typed out a short message on her phone

“Black Snake, I have failed my mission and blown my cover. I’ve killed the middleman. I’m hiding out in Cansington now, but I’m
injured. Please help me escape.”
After she crafted the message, she keyed in a number and sent it out.
James watched as she sent the message, asking, “Who’s Black Snake?”
May said, “An SSS-ranked assassin from the Dark Castle. He’s the best assassin the Dark Castle has trained. He’s ranked third
in the world and has never failed any mission.”

“What’s Black Snake like? Can we recruit him?”
“Uh...” May hesitated,
Based on what she understood about Black Snake, he was not someone easily recruited. He was loyal to the Dark Castle,
Besides being an assassin, he was also the deputy leader of the Dark Castle
Jarnes looked at her and asked, “What’s going on?”
May hesitated before taking a deep breath “It won’t be easy. Black Snake isn’t just an SSS ranked assassin, but he’s the deputy
leader as well. Besides the mysterious leader, Black Snake takes care of everything,
“Oh?”
James looked at May
“If he’s the deputy, why did you text him? Aren’t you afraid the Dark Castle will come after you with all they have?”
May was about to answer when her phone beeped. She looked at it only to discover that it was a string of numbers. James
looked at them, asking, “What do they mean?”
May explained, “It’s a code. Only those from the Dark Castle will be able to decipher it.”
“What did Black Snake say?”
“He said that rules are rules. Since my cover is blown, I should die. And I shouldn’t have killed the middleman. However, he will
do his best to come to Cansington and help me escape. He even wants to help me cut ties with the Dark Castle and leave the
country.”
James asked, “Who are you to him?”
May said, “We’re both orphans. The Dark Castle bought us. We’ve been training together since we were kids. As assassins, we
should be cold and unfeeling, but we’re just like brother and sister.”
“Ask him when he can get here.”
“Okay.”

May replied immediately.
This time, she did not send the message in words, but in odd symbols instead. James could not recognize any of the symbols or
numbers, but he memorized them. He would get someone to decipher the code later on. May used to be an assassin. She may
be under his employ now, but he was not sure if he could trust her completely. She could very well invite more assassins and
create more trouble for him.
Soon, Black Snake replied.It was a string of numbers.
May said, “Black Snake said that he’s busy right now. He needs three days to get to Cansington.”
“Three days?”
James narrowed his eyes.
It was the most crucial moment of the medical conference after three days.
It was too much of a coincidence to be one.
“May, you must know that is Black Snake comes to Cansington and doesn’t follow my orders, he will be dead. If you say you’re
like siblings, you’re bringing him trouble.”
James looked at May.
“I know.” May looked serious, “I’ll persuade him. I believe he’s had enough of the dark days anyway, and would love to live out in
the open.”
“Fine.”
James nodded lightly.
“Take care of your injuries. Let me know in advance if you have any news.”
