The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 853

Chapter 853

In the video formed by the projection, a group of well–equipped exploration teams entered the snow cave and explored Ghost Orchid.

A fully armed Special Forces soldier waved the tool in his hand, wanting to take down Ghost Orchid.

However, at this moment, the ice sculpture suddenly exploded.

Reign’s father, who was frozen in the ice sculpture, also moved. He was as fast as lightning and appeared in front of the Special Forces soldier like a ghost.

He held a long ice spear in his hand and stabbed that Special Forces soldier with lightning speed.

Fresh blood dripped down the ice spear. It was a shocking sight.

Meanwhile, he remained expressionless, not even blinking his eyes.

It was only when Reign saw this scene that she was frightened and began to doubt if she was hallucinating.

In her memory, her gentle father had now become a ruthless killer who did not even blink when taking lives.

How was this possible?

However, things were not over yet.

After the first Special Forces soldier was killed, the other members of the expedition team regained their composure. They raised their weapons, taking aim at Reign’s father and opening fire.

Bullets rained down on Reign’s father like a storm.

However, the bullet did not pierce through his body. Instead, there was the sound of metal clashing.

After all the bullets hit Reign’s father, the bullets all caved in and fell to the ground.

He was unharmed!

When the expedition team members in the video saw this scene, they were all dumbfounded.

However, before they could react, Reign’s father attacked again and massacred the expedition team.

His body was impervious to weapons, and he struck with lightning speed. His spear moved so fast that it was impossible to see with the naked eye.

Every time he swung his spear, the heart of an exploration team member would be pierced.

Some people fled in panic.

However, their speed was no match for Reign’s father, who quickly caught up to them and killed them.

Even the photographer was killed by Reign’s father.

The camera fell to the ground.

Following the angle of the camera’s fall, Reign’s father returned to the back of Ghost Orchid after killing the expedition

team.

At this moment, something strange happened.

After Reign’s father stood in a specific position, the snow and ice immediately crawled up his legs and slowly covered his body until he was completely buried.

He had once again turned into an ice sculpture.

“This…”

As Reign watched this scene, her initial shock, fear, and disbelief instantly turned into confusion.

Her father turned into an ice sculpture again?

Not only Reign but also Haylan looked confused.

“Later on, we tried to use some of the items of you to probe. In the end, we realized that there was a hint of fluctuation in your father’s eyes. This means that he is still alive and has self–awareness.

“We speculated that if we take you with us, your father might use his own power to break free of those mysterious controls and let us pass.

“Ms. Labenz, for the sake of your father’s freedom and safety, are you willing to go with us?”

He looked at Reign with bright eyes filled with anticipation.

They paid a heavy price to reach the cave in Nordica, but even when they sent god–class experts, they could not break through Reign’s father’s defense.

That was why they had set their sights on Reign.

Reign’s father would be conscious of Reign’s personal belongings, and if she were to come along, it would definitely put him in great turmoil.

At that time, they might be able to break through the guards and head to the cave.

Reign looked at her father, who had turned into an ice sculpture in the video, and fell into deep thought.

Haylan was still watching the projection video with a solemn expression.

Judging from the video, Reign’s father was indeed very powerful. His movements were swift and fierce, and he was unstoppable.

However, when he walked back to his original position, his movements were extremely mechanical and unnatural. He did not look like a normal human at all, as if he was controlled by something mysterious.

“Marionette!”

This word popped up in Haylan’s mind.

That was right; all of Reign’s father’s movements were like a Marionette being controlled by someone else.

The fact that someone could manipulate Reign’s father to kill god–class experts was a testament to how terrifying the person behind him must be.
