The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 326

Chapter 326 

“Haylan?” 

Linda’s eyes lit up as soon as she heard his voice. 

“Haylan?” Grace was overjoyed as well when she heard Linda call that name. She tried to peer through the hazy white smoke. 

Out of nowhere, a large hand reached out from the white smoke, waving the smoke away at the same time. 

Soon after, Haylan emerged from the smoke with a bloody haversack on his back. He looked at the two of them. When his gaze landed on Grace, he was taken aback. “Why are you here?” 

“Haylan!” 

Grace was elated to see him. She ran up to Haylan and hugged him tightly. “I have finally found you. Where have you been these few days?” 

“Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you?” 

“Well. Miss Zabel, let go of me first. I have urgent things to settle 

“What urgent things?” 

“Saving a life! Can’t you see that Officer Korran is in bad shape?” 

“What?” 

Grace quickly her head to look at Linda upon hearing that. 

Sure enough, Linda was looking as pale as a sheet of paper. She collapsed onto the floor, panting 

Blood was gushing out of her thigh. 

To begin with, Linda was already injured. But because she had set her sights on saving the people and teaching those criminals a lesson, she disregarded the pain and fought with all her might. She had put her life on the line. 

Now that Haylan was there, she knew they were no longer in danger. It was like being relieved of an enormous burden, and the tension in her body dissipated. 

The moment she relaxed, fatigue creeped over her. Now, her energy seemed to be sapping out of her. 

She became breathless and began to heave heavily. She was on the verge of black out. 

“Officer Korran!” 

Grace panicked. She quickly let go of Haylan’s hand and said, “Quick! Check on Officer Korran and see how she is doing.” 

Haylan hurried to Linda’s side and checked her pulse. Finally, he heaved a sigh of relief 

Linda did not sustain any life-threatening injuries. Her body was in shock due to the severe blood loss from her deep thigh wound. And that caused her to be so weak. 

Fortunately, the bullet did not hit any major blood vessels or nerves. 

If Haylan could stop the bleeding and take the bullet out, Linda would not be in any life danger after a blood transfusion. “Apologies, Officer Korran. I’m afraid I need to do a medical procedure on you,” Haylan said. 

He laid Linda down on the floor and tore her pants apart. He then extended her legs apart so that the wound was in clear view. 

The wound was nearly 0.4 inches in diameter, and blood was still oozing out. 

Haylen hit her acupoint and applied pressure on the wound to cease the bleeding. Then, he pressed down on her wound with some clean cloth. He approached the criminals and found a military knife 

Luckily, those criminals also had first-aid kits on them. 

Haylan first removed a bullet from the criminal. He took the bullet’s casing apart and emptied the gunpowder in it. After sweeping the powder into a pile, he lit it up and sanitized the knife with the fire. 

He then grabbed what remained of Linda’s pants. 

“Wait. What are you trying to do?” Linda was shocked and quickly grabbed Haylan’s hand. 

“Your wound is too deep. I need to unbutton your pants and disinfect the wound to prevent bacterial infection. This for your good,” Haylan explained. 

“But.” Linda’s face reddened. 

Linda had only this pair of pants on now. If she took it off, she would be naked. 

That was too embarrassing for her. 

“Officer Korran, treating the wound is of utmost importance now. If we delay any further in removing the bullet, you will die, Grace urged. 

She was pressing down on Linda’s wound, and her hands were dripping with blood. 

Linda would be in danger if she continued to lose any more blood. 

Linda hesitated at first. Finally, she released her hands from the pants. Her face was as red as a tornato. 

However, when she saw the haversack on Haylan’s back, her eyes became ecstatic. “Haylan. You managed to get that treasure back?” 

Haylan composedly placed the haversack in front of Linda and said. “Don’t worry, I took care of it.” 

He then unbuttoned the last of Linda’s pants and disinfected the area around the wound. After he cleaned the area, Haylan cut into the wound and retrieved the bullet. 

Then, he ligated the blood vessels on her thigh and stitched the wound after cleaning it. 

When he had finished, Haylan threw the bullet aside and bandaged Linda’s wound. He then said, “I have needles and thread here. I’ll treat your calf wound too.” 

Haylan used the silver needles he bought from the shop to anesthetize Linda. After which, he performed the treatment on Linda’s calf wound. After cleaning and washing it, he closed the wound up. 

After dressing the wound, Haylan transferred some of his vital energy to Linda to protect her heart meridians. 

Finally, he placed one end of the haversack in Linda’s hands and said, “Those police officers outside are coming in. I don’t want to cause a big commotion.” 

“Officer Korran, remember our agreement. I’m going back. See you again.” 

As soon as he finished saying that, Haylan turned around and left. 

“Haylan, wait for me. Grace hurriedly after Haylan. 

Haylan looked at Grace and frowned. “You drove here, right?” 

“Right.” 

“What’s the license plate number?” 

“CAxxx98” 

“Take care of Officer Korran first. Put your coat on her. I’ll wait for you in your car later.” 

Haylan pointed at Linda’s wounds as he said that. He then turned around, striding into the white smoke. 

Grace glanced back at Linda and burrowed her brows slightly. 

Haylan had removed Linda’s pants earlier to treat her wounds, and she was completely exposed now. If the other police officers walked in on them, they would see Linda naked. 

“Haylan.”
