The Invincible Mercenary King (Haylan Jaber)

Chapter 374

With a frown, Haylan wondered, “How can such a small mercenary group have so many general-class

experts and advanced. weapons

Those general-class experts were worthy of attention.

After all, they were considered a backbone force for many countries, mercenaries, and factions.

For smaller factions, they represented the pinnacle of power.

The Bloody Devil was just a newly formed mercenary group that had been active in South East Aestica

for only a year. Yet, they dared to launch a surprise attack in Longhard Kingdom, stealing Uranium-235,

and deploying several general-class

experts.

Now, to kill Reign, they sent two more general-class experts to hold Landon downL

Such terrifying strength would easily rank them as a B-level or even A-level mercenary group on the

extraterritorial battlefield.

They could easily take on more lucrative missions, but this mercenary group had always operated only

in South East

Aestica

The fact that they went to such great lengths to kill Reign, risking the pursuit of the Dragon Team, was

highly unusual. Landon approached, protecting Reign, and examined the bullets and firearms closely.

His face turned cold as he uttered, “The Bloody Devil!”

“You know about them too?” Haylan was surprised.

Landon’s gaze grew icy as he spoke solemnly, “Although I’ve retired. I still keep tabs on various

mercenary groups’ activities internationally. This mercenary group has been active on the borders of

several neighboring countries for a while now. Just two days ago, they robbed Robert’s vault, causing

quite a stir. I never expected them to target us. There must be a more powerful force backing them

from behind, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to act with impunity in South East Aestica. Damn

it! Whoever hired these mercenaries, if I find them, I’ll tear them apart!”

At this point, his eyes were extremely cold and murderous.

If not for Haylan protecting Reign just now, she would have died.

Therefore, it seemed to Landon that the person who hired these mercenaries deserved to die!

“Regardless of who hired them, there’s one thing we know for sure: someone wants me dead!” Reign

gritted her teeth.

Haylan and Landon fell silent, their gaze colder and angrier than before.

Landon’s anger stemmed from the harm inflicted on her life.

Meanwhile, Haylan’s anger arose from the failure of the Dragon Team to promptly eliminate this group

of mercenaries.

He sat on the side, his gaze icy as he wondered, ‘Is the Dragon Train’s defense in Lightdoin City this

weak? Or is it that all the elite forces have been deployed to the extraterritorial battlefield?”

He remembered three years ago when he had crossed paths with the Dragon Team’s top talent, and

their fight was evenly. matched.

His mercenary group had not gained the slightest advantage against the Special Combat Dragon

Team.

They were a formidable force that gave his mercenary group a headache.

But now, members of the Dragon Team in Lightdom City allowed the Bloody Devil to rampage freely,

which was a severe dereliction of duty.

Taking a deep breath, he spoke in a low voice, “Let’s not worry about that for now, Mr. Katz, I’ll help you

treat your wounds.”

He proceeded to help Landon stop the bleeding by hitting his acupoint while finding something to help

him stitch up the

wounds.

‘I’m not gonna die. You watch over Rei. I’ll go find some clothes for both of you,” Landon said.

He only realized at this moment that both he and Reign were completely drenched having fallen into

the pond.

It didn’t bother himn much. Even if he had to take off all his clothes, it would not matter. However, she

was different.

She was only wearing a pink nightgown, and with the wet dress clinging to her body, her curvaceous

figure was further accentuated.

With her pink nightgown, cascading dark hair, fair and rosy skin, tantalizing bosom, slender waist,

shapely hips, and loug legs…

She stood there like a lotus emerging from the water, exquisitely beautiful, and captivating in a way that

could make many

men’s hearts skip a beat.

However, her skin appeared paler than before due to the fear of escape and being soaked in water. Her

previously rosy lips lacked color at that point, and she stood trembling.

“Let’s make a fire.”

He pulled her toward the burning villa, to warm themselves by the fire while urging her quickly dry her

clothes.

Since the villa was already burning, it might as well serve as a fireplace.

She approached the burning villa and felt less cold, but her expression was complicated as she looked

at him.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

“Nothing, it’s just that I find it a bit too much. You know, asking me to warm myself up by the fire,” she

replied.

On top of the life-and-death experience, her home had been blown up. Nonetheless, he did not comfort

her and instead pulled her in front of the burning villa.

It was evident that he was not very considerate.

It was a bit careless and even slightly hurtful to her vulnerable and helpless mind.

“It’s already happened, so there’s no use being on edge. As long as you’re safe, right? Think of it as if

you’re the one who set the villa on fire to warm yourself,” he said calmly.

Upon hearing this, she was speechless once again.

No one would set the villa on sire just to get warm, after all.

It appeared that he was simply too optimistic.

After all, this villa was worth millions!

Even if it were converted into cash, it would take a long time to burn, and the loss would be so

significant. However, he made it sound so simple, leaving her at a loss for words.

Still, with his words, her mindset began to change.

He was right. As long as they were safe, all other losses could be disregarded.

She thought, “It’s just setting the villa on fire for warmth. I have plenty of money anyway!”

Therefore, she began to warm herself up casually.

Not long after, Landon, who had changed into a new set of clothes, returned with two sets of clothes,

one for her and one for Haylan.

As the duo were putting on their clothes, the sound of sirens could be heard.

Three or four police vehicles rushed to the scene.

Meanwhile, along with the vehicles were fire trucks.

They saw the gun fragments at Haylan and Landon’s feet and looked at the burning villa, all stunned.

“Officer, I’m Landon Katz, and this is my boss, Reign Labenz, and her employee, Haylan Jaber. We

were attacked by some illegal criminals from abroad, resulting in our home being destroyed.”

Landon walked over and explained everything to the leading detective, pointing at the burning

courtyard villa. “They rushed in, started shooting, and we defended ourselves, killing some of the

criminals!”

The leading detective’s name was Jayden Hanson, around forty years old, with sharp and resolute

eyes.

He was also remarkably tall and imposing, exuding a strong presence.

He looked at Landon, then at Haylan and Reign, then quickly came to the conclusion that someone

was trying to murder the wealthiest person in the city.

He did not ask any more questions and immediately instructed the police to assist the firefighters in

extinguishing the fire. After that, he ordered the officers to drag out the bodies of those mercenaries,

lining them up.

‘The mercenaries’ firearms were also scattered on the ground

Observing the unfolding scene, Jayden’s countenance soured, his eyes piercing with determination as

he uttered with resonant voice. “The perpetrators undoubtedly remain within the confines of Lightdom

City. Their presence poses the gravest threat to our society. Alert the higher authorities and implement

an immediate lockdown of all highways, railways, airports, and train stations! In the interest of public

safety, we must eradicate their presence, unearthing them even if it requires an exhaustive search!”

The police nodded and immediately left.

After conducting a certain level of questioning with Haylan and the others, Jayden led the police to

leave as well.

Haylan thought for a moment and turned to Reign and Landon, saying, “Ms. Labenz, Mr. Katz, I’ll be

leaving now.”

With that, he drove away in his BMW.

However, he did not go home but went to a toy store, where he bought a relatively fierce mask. He

modified the mask in the car and parked it in an area without any surveillance.

Getting out of the car, he put on the mask, revealing only a pair of incredibly sharp eyes.

At this moment, he was like the Sovereign of Asura as he emerged from the darkness, exuding an

immensely terrifying killing intent.

The intent surged upward, engulfing the surrounding area in its destructive path. It shattered every

living being within a 6 miles radius, reducing them to a crimson mist.

In the next second, he disappeared from the spot.
