The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 400

Chapter 400 

“Mr. Lewton, since we already know the location of the Ghost Orchid, why did we invite them to join us?” Eden asked in confusion. 

Sharvin finished his coffee, his face serious. He spoke slowly and deliberately. “If Reign does not show up, no one can touch the Ghost Orchid!” 

“Why?” Eden was stunned. 

Sharvin set down his coffee and spoke in a solemn tone, “This is a highly unique situation that requires further explanation. 

“Anyway, all you need to know is that in order to obtain the Ghost Orchid, Reign’s presence is necessary. 

“Eden, remember this during the time that the Swan Cruise is at sea, no matter what happens, you must protect Reign and 

ensure she does not die. 

Eden nodded in agreement. 

Then, he asked in confusion. “Isn’t it just a very ordinary gathering? How can Ms. Labenz’s life be in danger?” 

“I don’t know. I have a feeling that something big will happen next, Sharvin said in a low voice. 

Eden’s expression changed slightly when he heard this, 

He had been following Sharvin for a long time and knew that his intuition was particularly sharp, as he had never made a 

mistake. 

It was precisely because of Sharvin’s keen intuition that the two of them had escaped death multiple times. 

In other words, if Sharvin had this kind of feeling, then it was destined that the sea voyage would be very unsafe, and there might be a real danger to life. 

In the room, Haylan was packing up. He took out many items from the suitcase and placed them neatly. 

Reign went to the bathroom. 

At this moment, Haylan’s nose twitched. He smelled something special. 

“What’s that?” 

Haylan’s expression changed. He looked around and finally found some powder on the bed and slippers. 

He dipped his fingers into the powder and sniffed it. His expression changed again. “Love potion?” 

This was a type of powdered drug. Once it entered the human body, it could cause breathing difficulties and increased heart rate in the person who inhaled it. 

If taken in excessive amounts, it could even cause hallucinations and make some people obedient to what they were told, no matter what others said or what kind of orders were given. 

Therefore, this kind of powdered drug could be found in many non-standard bars, internet cafes, cinemas, and pubs. 

If girls inhaled an excessive amount of this powdered drug or accidentally touched it with their fingers and then came into contact with the mucous membranes of their body, the absorption rate of the drug would be faster, and the effect would be stronger. 

Many criminals often used powdered drugs to deal with women, causing many women to suffer. 

Haylan’s nose twitched as he sniffed around and eventually found the substance on the shoes and seat. 

“If it’s on the shoes, then could it also be in the toilet?’ 

Haylan’s expression changed when he thought of this. 

If this kind of powdered drug was on the toilet, wouldn’t it be bad if Reign used it? 

“Ms. Labenz, don’t use the toilet!” 

At the thought of this, Haylan’s expression changed drastically. He immediately spoke, wanting to stop Reign. However, before he could finish speaking, there was the sound of water rushing into the toilet. 

Oh no! 

Upon hearing this voice, Haylan’s expression changed slightly. 

Damn! 

Reign might have been affected by the drug. 

At this moment, Reign walked out of the bathroom. When she saw Haylan’s expression, her eyes were filled with shock.. “What’s wrong? Why do you have such an expression?” 

“It’s fine. I’ll go to the toilet, too,” said Haylan. 

After saying that, he and Reign passed each other. He immediately went to the toilet and sniffed around. His expression changed as he realized something was wrong. 

There was indeed such a smell in the bathroom. 

He searched carefully again and indeed found such a small amount of powder on the toilet seat cover. 

He rushed out of the bathroom and found Reign. 

“Aren’t you using the toilet?” Reign looked at Haylan with a puzzled look. “Why did you come out so quickly?” 

“That’s my own business. What’s important now is whether you sat on the toilet seat when you were using it just now,” Haylan asked. 

“Am I supposed to sit on the floor if I don’t sit on the toilet seat cover while using the bathroom?” asked Reign in response. “Oh no. You may have been infected. Go take a shower quickly.” 

“What? What nonsense are you talking about?” 

“Someone snuck into our room and spilled powdered drugs on our bed, our shoes, the toilet seat cover, and many other places.” 

“Powdered drugs?” 

Reign’s expression changed when she heard that. 

Haylan walked up to the bed of Reign, wiped away some of the thin powdered drugs, and handed them to her immediately. 

This powdered drug was pale yellow and was very similar to human skin. When it was fused with the golden bedsheets, it was impossible to tell. 

Moreover, this cruise ship was specially custom-made for the rich. The toilet bowl was embedded with gold, so these powdered drugs could not be seen. 

Reign’s face darkened when she saw powdered drugs. “Who did this?” 

“I don’t know either These powdered drugs were not here when we first entered, but they appeared after we came back. Someone probably put them while we were on the deck.”
