The Invincible Mercenary King (Haylan Jaber)

Chapter 896

Looking at the assassins non–stop running out of the corners screaming and the rats, mosquitoes, and cockroaches

on them, Kelsen’s eye expression became even more fearful and shocked.

Leonard merely whistled just now, but it triggered a beast tide.

This ability was simply incredible!

“I heard that Leonard is a beast tamer from Shadow Knight. He can command all the wild beasts for his use. Now

that I’ve seen it today, he’s truly extraordinary,” Josef sighed.

Kelsen’s expression was solemn as he said in a deep voice, “Imagine if this were in the ocean, and he could

command all the fish within it…”

At this point, Kelsen and Josef shuddered simultaneously, their eyes growing even more solemn and filled with fear.

He could overturn the nuclear submarines even if countless fish attacked humans in the vast ocean.

Such strength was simply terrifying!

“Rumor has it that Shadow Knight has many hidden experts. Leonard is not even ranked in the top 50,” one of the

bodyguards said in a low voice.

As soon as he said that, Kelsen and Josef looked even more shocked and fearful.

If a person with such terrifying strength could not even enter the top 50 of Shadow Knight, what kind of freak was

an expert in the top 50?

Just the thought of such strength was horrifying!

“With Leonard’s help and the terrifying expert, Haylan, guarding them, they should be fine,” Kelsen said with relief.

Staring in the direction where Haylan and the others left, Josef seemed to be thinking of something. He thought to

himself, “Looks like Haylan and Shadow Knight have a close relationship.”

Previously, in Swan Cruise, Haylan could bring so many people to visit Shadow Knight’s aircraft carrier.

And now, Shadow Knight’s general, Leonard, also appeared by Haylan’s side. He also obediently heeded and

followed Haylan’s commands.

The occurrence of such events consecutively was sufficient to indicate Haylan had a unique and extraordinary

identity.

At this moment, he felt exceptionally fortunate that he did not take the opposing side of Haylan just now.

After ensuring no more danger, Kelsen immediately bid farewell to Josef, covered his wound, and quickly left.

After Kelsen’s people left, the bustling hotel immediately became deserted and quiet.

Josef stood in place, growing increasingly convinced that Haylan was extraordinary.

At this moment, a masked man walked over and stared coldly at Josef.

“Mr. Messenger.

Seeing this person, Josef’s expression changed, and he quickly bowed respectfully.

“The master wants to see you,” the messenger said in a low voice.

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Josef’s expression changed upon hearing that. He quickly instructed his subordinates to wait quietly while he alone

followed the messenger. He followed behind him respectfully.

It did not take long for them to reach the middle level of the hotel.

The messenger opened a door and signaled Josef to go in.

Josef walked in respectfully.

The messenger immediately closed the door, standing guard in front of it like a formidable gatekeeper.

Josef walked into the hall respectfully.

In the hall, a majestic figure was gazing down at the brightly lit night scenery below.

It was obviously a tremendously tall and mighty man!

Although it was only a back view, it was filled with pressure, making Josef tremble in fear.

He dared not get too close. Instead, he stopped 32 feet away behind the back of the figure. He knelt on one knee

and said respectfully, “Greetings, Master.”

The man did not even turn around and said coldly, “Give me a reason. Why are you taking Reign’s side?”

Josef quickly explained, “Master, I feel that Haylan’s background is extraordinary. Going against the other forces of

the Whileal Kingdom for him is completely worth the investment!”

“What do you mean?” the man asked in a deep voice.

“I had a lot of interactions with Haylan. Judging from various situations, Haylan is likely one of Shadow Knight’s

higher–ups. Thus I want to take a gamble,” Josef explained.

Hearing this explanation, the man was silent for a moment.

The atmosphere in the room instantly became incredibly solemn and pressured.

As time was ticking, Josef was under tremendous pressure. His forehead was drenched in cold sweat.

He was aware of the terrifying power and formidable network of connections his master had.

When he was in the hotel lobby just now, his master had already warned him not to get involved in the bet between

Clark and Haylan.

But in the end, he betrayed his master’s orders taking the side of Haylan and Reign.

Now that his master was silent, he was terrified and uneasy.

After a long time, the man said calmly, “You made the right decision. Haylan and Leonard are not ordinary people.

What you did were high investments and high returns.

“However, you violated my orders, and you must bear some consequences.”

After saying that, he waved his hand.

A fruit knife flew out of the kitchen and landed before Josef.

“Cut off one of your fingers,” the man said coldly.

Josef’s expression changed, but he dared not disobey. He picked up the fruit knife, gritted his teeth, and slashed at

the pinky of his left hand.

With great force, the finger was severed instantly, resulting in a gruesome scene with blood splattering.

Josef’s face contorted in pain, and his forehead was drenched in sweat.

At this moment, the man said indifferently. “I hope you will garner a high return for your investment. Go and

announce that from today onward, Mapleturz Group will be the largest partner of your Deity Pharmaceutical Group.

“Except for that pills, you can share the patent of the other drugs with Mapleturz Group.”

He looked down condescendingly just now and saw everything that had happened. He could also see the subtle

relationship between Haylan and Leonard.

He thus believed what Josef said was true.

“Understood” Josef nodded.

The man waved his hand straightaway without looking back.

“I’ll make a move now.”

Seeing this, Josef immediately bowed and left.

“Pick up your finger!” the man said coldly.

Josef’s expression changed upon hearing that. He quickly took out a handkerchief and wrapped it up before he

turned to leave.

When he stepped out of the door, he felt a relief. His back was drenched in sweat as if he had just walked through

the gates of the underworld. He had a feeling of narrowly escaping a calamity and was granted a second chance at

life.

The messenger glanced at Josef before his gaze landed on the severed finger. He said calmly, “You’re lucky. You

made the right bet. You can still reattach your finger if you go to the hospital now.”

“Thank you, Mr. Messenger.”

Josef bowed and thanked the messenger. He then took his finger and left.

When he left, he was tremendously excited but a little worried at the same time. He thought to himself, “Haylan
