Chapter 722

No one expected him to be a national hero who sympathized with the poor and dedicated his life to
protecting the nation. A person like him ended up with such a miserable fate.

Thousands of people gathered outside the courthouse. All of them lowered their heads in silence. Many
women secretly wept for him.

“James....”

A voice came from behind him. James turned around and saw Henry chasing after him.

Henry approached him and asked, “Where are you going, James?”

James raised his hand weakly and patted Henry‘s shoulder, saying, “I appreciate you. You don‘t need
to worry about my affairs anymore. Go back to the Southern Plains. Someone needs to be there to
manage the hundred and fifty cities. Don‘t let the Southern Plains fall into chaos.”

“But, you...” James waved his hand and interrupted Henry.

“Don‘t worry. I‘ll be fine. I’ll take this opportunity to have a really good rest. I‘m exhausted. Incredibly
exhausted.”

James reassured him and turned to leave.

The people at the entrance sensibly backed away to make a path for him. He walked through the path
that the crowd made for him.

It felt incredibly long, and James could tell it would take him some time to walk through this crowded
path.



“Restore James‘ position! “Sol needs our hero!”

A voice erupted from the crowd.

The others also followed suit and shouted together. The chanting became louder and louder. James felt
the buzzing in his ears and was frustrated. He quickened his pace, wanting to get out of this path
surrounded by people as soon as possible

However, Jarnes was poisoned, and the long walk depleted all his strength.

He could not go any further. Suddenly, his vision went blurry, and he fell to the ground.

“James…

Quincy had been following behind him. Seeing James fall, she quickly rushed over and supported
James up from the ground.

James regained consciousness.

“Go away.”

He waved his hand and pushed away Quincy, who was supporting him.

After pushing Quincy away, James‘ stumbled and toppled over again. Fortunately, he managed to
balance himself.

He straightened up his back and roared.

“I‘ve conquered battlefields and been through the fire! What is mere parasitic venom?!!”



His face was pale but had great fortitude and an unyielding spirit radiating from him. Relying on his
strong beliefs, James straightened his body and advanced step by step. Media reporters chasing after
him did not miss the chance to film this sight. He stood tall and straight. This was the Guardian of Sol!
Seeing this sight, the whole country burst into tears. “We all wronged him!” “He has a Black Dragon
card with an endless fortune to spend. Still, he dedicated himself to the people. He created the
Transgenerational Group to earn money and give back to us.”

“He is our War God, our national hero!”

“Twenty–eight countries compensated nine trillion dollars, but he distributed millions to the Black
Dragon Army.” “Yeah, they guard the border and protect Sol, but their families struggle to make a living
in the country.”

Everyone fell silent upon seeing James‘ ragged figure. Everyone with a conscience began to reflect
upon themselves.

James felt like an eternity had passed after finally walking through the cramped pathway. He was
drained of his energy and blacked out, collapsing to the ground.
