The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)

Chapter 842

Haylan scanned around the cave and fell into deep thought.

He had roamed the field for so long, but that was the first time an enemy had escaped from his hands.

Most importantly, the enemy used moves that he was unfamiliar with. He could not find any flaws.

“Master always said that there’s always someone better. Now I finally understand.”

“It is my fault for being too careless and underestimating the enemy. If I had known that this red– robed fellow had such methods, I would have killed him directly just now.”

Haylan stood on the spot and secretly regretted his decisions.

With Haylatt’s strength, he could kill the red–robed messenger instantly, making it impossible for him to escape.

However, he did not intend to kill the red–robed messenger in one go. Instead, he wanted to gradually destroy the red–robed messenger’s defense and capture him alive to ask about some secrets of the Demonic God Society.

Unfortunately, he had underestimated the red–robed messenger.

The person had nurtured and researched cursed beetles for decades. Not only could he nurture spiritual beetles, but also poisonous spiritual beetles. He was evil and strange, and his methods were even more unpredictable.

“Haylan, why aren’t you chasing after him?” Lawrence walked over and asked.

“To be able to escape from me, this guy is very unusual. I can’t catch up to him.” Haylan shook his head.

He clapped his hands and turned to look at Lawrence. “Are you okay?”

“Halalía, how could anything happen to me?”

Lawrence spun around in front of Haylan and even took out the meteorite. He smiled and said, “Not only am I fine, but I also tricked that person into giving me this.”

“This is a meteorite?” Haylan asked.

“How do you know?”

“I once encountered a meteorite of the same material, but the quality of the one I encountered was much worse than the one in your hand.”

Haylan stared at the meteorite in Lawrence’s hand. The more he looked at it, the more familiar it felt.

The meteorite was of the same material as the secret door in Bernard’s office but better in quality.

He could feel that the meteorite contained very majestic and special energy.

He could not put into words clearly how it was special.

“Could it be that there is some kind of relationship between the red–robed messenger and Bernard?” Haylan thought.

One was the mainstay of the Bernard family, and the other was one of the eight leaders of the Demonic God Society.

If the two of them really worked together, they could do whatever they wanted in the Whileal Kingdom.

“Haylan, you are really powerful. You have even seen this kind of stone before. I’m impressed, Lawrence said with heartfelt admiration.

Haylan glanced at him and said, “You don’t have to admire me. I want to admire you.”

“When you fell into the hands of the red–robed messenger, everyone was worried that you would be killed by the red–robed messenger.”

“Even I thought that you were doomed. I did not expect you to be able to scare that red–robed messenger.”

–“You are even more powerful than me with this Deception Spell. Not bad!”

Faced with Haylan’s praise, Lawrence smiled and said, “It is not that I want to fool him. It is just that his obsession is too deep, and his greed is too strong, causing him to be unable to think rationally. That’s how I managed to deceive him

“I have been lying in bed for so long, and he still thinks I know what spirit gathering array is. It is ridiculous” Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“If he kills me as soon as he catches me, I won’t be able to use any tricks”

However, he was greedy and wanted to replenish the power he had lost from me. That was why he fell into my trap.”

After a pause, he said justifiedly, “He does not even understand such a simple principle that you can’t regain what is lost. Who else should I fool if not him?”

“This kind of person has all the skills, but his brain is empty. They are the easiest to type to fool.”

Alright, ter en sak sb shes Clean up the on your body. We’re going back Haylin lonked at Lawrence and smiled.

To be horas. Lawrence was definitely a genius to be able to escape from a desperate situation without any flaws.

Orthther he was simply a mous

Only then dri Lawrence realize that he was still covered ut cooking oil. Without saying a word, he immediately rushed out and rolled back and forth in the snow

About ten minutes later, he finally cleaned up the cooking oil on his body. He was so cold that his body was bruised. He walked hack, trembling

Haylan took off his thiri and threw it to Lawrence.

Lawrence took the shirt but did not put it on immediately. Instead, he looked at Haylan and asked, “If you give me your shirt, would it not be too cold for you?

“With my strength, even if it’s minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit, it won’t hurt me. Put it on,” Haylan said calmly.

Lawrence did not say anything else and immediately put on the shirt. Only then he felt much wartner.

Then, his gaze fell on the scars on Haylan’s body His eyes were filled with admiration and longing. “Haylan, your life is exciting”

He was extremely intelligent and could tell that every scar on Haylan’s body had a backstory.

That meant that in those eight years. Haylan had experienced things that ordinary people could not. Perhaps Haylan had really been to hell.

“If you had a choice, I believe you would not choose my experience,” Haylan said indifferently.

His experiences were indeed vast. They were even more twisted and ridiculous than the adventures in the novels.

Even someone as strong as him almost died halfway, and he had several mental breakdowns.

His physical body had died no less than twenty times!

If not for his master’s wonderous medical skills, pulling him back from the verge of death multiple times, he would have been separated from his parents long ago.

Lawrence smiled and said, “Although I do not know why you said that, I know that your journey must have been a difficult

one.”

“But if you had the chance to return to the start, I am sure you would choose the same path again.”

Haylan remained silent and pulled Lawrence out. Before he left, lie even sent all the stones that were used to set up the formation flying.

“Haylan, how does my spirit gathering array look? It is enough to scam people, right?”

“It does seem a little legitimate, but that’s not an array at all. Sooner or later, you will be exposed.”

“It was an idea I came up with in a hurry. I then found a random Big Dipper Map to fool him. Hahaha, he’s so stupid. Who else can I fool but him?”

Their voices were getting further and further away, and their figures gradually disappeared in the snow.

After an unknown period of time, a large hand reached out from the shadow on the ground in the depth of the cave.

Immediately after, the red–robed messenger crawled up from the shadow like a worm and sat on the ground, panting heavily. The bones in his hands were broken, and he was still bleeding non– stop. He looked like he would die at any moment and was on the verge of death.

His eyes under the mask were filled with endless hatred and anger. He let out a devilish moan. “Haylan Jaber, Lawrence Labenz, I will definitely not let the two of you off!”
