The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 588

Chapter 588 

Haylan Jaber was not some goody two shoes. On the contrary, he was very vengeful. 

Just now, Carlo Monde had repeatedly tried to kill him and had even used very unscrupulous methods. 

If Haylan had not reacted quickly and dodged the bullet and if his body which was immune to poison had not devoured the poisonous smoke, he would probably have died twice. 

Carlo’s actions had completely crossed the line as far as Haylan was concerned and this made Haylan very annoyed! Therefore, Haylan’s voice became extremely chilly and his murderous aura began surging 

“Are you threatening me?” Carlo’s face clouded over instantly. 

“Yes.” Haylan nodded. 

Complete silence! 

The moment Haylan uttered that word, the whole place fell silent. 

“Hahahaha…” 

Carlo thought he heard the funniest joke in the world. In the next second, he threw his head back and laughed until tears. flowed out. 

Immediately after that, his expression turned extremely chilly as he said viciously, “Haylan Jaber, you’re really stubborn. even at the brink of death. 

“This prison you are in is the sturdiest and most terrifying prison of our Tigris Insignia Army! 

“Once you’re locked inside, you’re like a fish waiting to be slaughtered. You’re already destined to be a corpse. How dare you threaten me, the one in control of your fate? You’re simply courting death! 

“Men! Release the arrows. Shoot him to death.” 

Carlo’s voice was particularly furious and chilly and filled with murderous intent. 

Bringing Haylan here and imprisoning him in that prison was something that he, Zealon Xydia, and the rest had already discussed and agreed upon upfront. 

This prison cell was the sturdiest and had an exceptionally large number of mechanisms. Even if a seven–star general–class expert was imprisoned here, he would not be able to do anything except wait for death. 

To put it bluntly, Haylan was already trapped like a turtle in a jar and there was no way he could break out of this trap at all. Carlo could manipulate Haylan at will. 

Swish! Swish! Swish! 

Following Carlo’s order, some of the staff in the control room immediately took action and switched on the arrow–shooting mechanism. 

In an instant, holes immediately appeared on the walls of the prison cell that Haylan was in. A dense shower of arrows shot out from all directions like a raging storm, aiming straight at Haylan. 

“Hahaha…” 

When he saw this scene, Carlo smiled in a sinister fashion. His gaze was smug and chilly as if he could already see the tragic scene of Haylan being shot to death by thousands of arrows. 

At the thought of this, Carlo became even more smug. He felt the satisfying pleasure of having taken revenge. 

However, before long, he couldn’t smile anymore. 

“Round shield!” 

Haylan did not move at all when faced with these thousands of arrows. A powerful surge of vital energy spread out and turned into a round shield. 

When those arrows struck the round shield, they all shattered into powder upon contact with the round shield of vital energy, just like moths flying into a flame. It was a spectacular sight. 

As for Haylan, he was totally unscathed. 

The smile on Carlo’s face froze again and was replaced by a deeply shocked expression. “He released his vital energy externally and turned it into a shield? He’s at the level of seven–star general–class?” 

Carlo’s eyes widened as he stared fixedly at Haylan. 

He knew that Haylan was very strong, but before Haylan struck, Carlo had always thought that Haylan was very young Al that age, no matter how strong Haylan was, he was at most a one–star General. 

Now that Haylan had displayed his actual strength, even Carlo felt shocked and fearful of this terrifying power. 

A seven–star General! 

Such an expert was an outstanding figure even in the Tigris Insignia Army. Haylan’s achievements could completely crush a low–ranking commander of the Tigris Insignia Army like Carlo 

The most terrifying thing was that Haylan was too young. He had reached this level before the age of thirty. His future was limitless 

Haylan circulated his energy to form a shield to block those arrows His gaze was as sharp as a blade as he stared icily at 

Carlo. 

Carlo immediately felt as if he was being stared at by some ancient ferocious beast. His hair stood on end, and his soul felt as if it had been pierced. 

“Damn it! This brat is harboring a grudge against me. 

“And that bastard Zealon didn’t tell me that Haylan Jaber was actually so strong. He’s trying to drag me down with him! 

“That’s not right! 

“Damn it! Zealon is using me as bait to test Haylan Jaber’s attitude and collect evidence of Haylan Jaber attacking the military department’s members!” 

In just a few short seconds, Carlo’s mind spun around rapidly and he immediately understood that he had been used. As the head of the Intelligence Department, Zealon knew the personalities of many people in the Silver Panzer Corps like the back of his hand. 

When they sent troops to capture Haylan just now, Zealon did not show much of a reaction all the while. When Zealon faced Haylan, he was even very polite. It was Carlo, the leader of the Tigris Insignia Army, who had stepped forward to antagonize Haylan all the time while Zealon played the role of the peace–maker. 

When he thought of this, Carlo became even more incensed. He had the deluded perception that he had been betrayed. He treated Zealon as his good friend. In order to help Zealon, he did everything he could to antagonize Haylan. 

In the end, Carlo realized that he had been used as a tool! 

Anyone else in his shoes would feel terrible. 

Haylan stared at Carlo icily and pronounced word by word, “Carlo Monde, you’ve tried to kill me time and time again. Your crimes are unforgivable! 

“Today, I must kill you!” 

Even though the two of them were separated by a layer of glass, Haylan’s chilly words were like a freezing fog that wafted up from the deepest level of purgatory, making Carlo shiver with fright. 

“Dammit! This brat hates me now. If he manages to escape, then I’m dead for sure. 

“In for a penny, in for a pound. I will slay him!” 

Carlo felt his hair stand on end when Haylan stared at him. Then, he gritted his teeth, took out his cell phone, and issued the order. “All of you, listen up. Activate all the mechanisms and kill Haylan Jaber!” 

“Er…” 

In the control room, a soldier said nervously, “Mr. Monde, this person hasn’t been convicted yet. I’m afraid it’s not good for us to kill him, right? 

“If the higher–ups pursue this matter, L…” 

“Cut the crap! Kill him! This is an order!” 

“But, what if the higher–ups…” 

“If the higher–ups want to pin the blame on someone, I will bear the responsibility alone. Activate the mechanisms immediately. Otherwise, I’ll punish you for disobeying orders!” 

Carlo roared in rage anxiously, his voice erupting like thunder. 

A seven–star General was definitely not someone he could contend with! 

For his own safety, Carlo had to kill Haylan here. 

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable. 

The staff in the control room did not dare to say anything else after being roared at. He could only quickly spring into 

action and turn on all the switches.
