The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 842

Chapter 842

Haylan scanned around the cave and fell into deep thought.

He had roamed the field for so long, but that was the first time an enemy had escaped from his hands.

Most importantly, the enemy used moves that he was unfamiliar with. He could not find any flaws.

“Master always said that there’s always someone better. Now I finally understand.”

“It is my fault for being too careless and underestimating the enemy. If I had known that this red–robed fellow had such methods, I would have killed him directly just now.”

Haylan stood on the spot and secretly regretted his decisions.

With Haylatt’s strength, he could kill the red–robed messenger instantly, making it impossible for him to escape.

However, he did not intend to kill the red–robed messenger in one go. Instead, he wanted to gradually destroy the red–robed messenger’s defense and capture him alive to ask about some secrets of the Demonic God Society.

Unfortunately, he had underestimated the red–robed messenger.

The person had nurtured and researched cursed beetles for decades. Not only could he nurture spiritual beetles, but also poisonous spiritual beetles. He was evil and strange, and his methods were even more unpredictable.

“Haylan, why aren’t you chasing after him?” Lawrence walked over and asked.

“To be able to escape from me, this guy is very unusual. I can’t catch up to him.” Haylan shook his head.

He clapped his hands and turned to look at Lawrence. “Are you okay?”

“Halalía, how could anything happen to me?”

Lawrence spun around in front of Haylan and even took out the meteorite. He smiled and said, “Not only am I fine, but I also tricked that person into giving me this.”

“This is a meteorite?” Haylan asked.

“How do you know?”

“I once encountered a meteorite of the same material, but the quality of the one I encountered was much worse than the one in your hand.”

Haylan stared at the meteorite in Lawrence’s hand. The more he looked at it, the more familiar it felt.

The meteorite was of the same material as the secret door in Bernard’s office but better in quality.

He could feel that the meteorite contained very majestic and special energy.

He could not put into words clearly how it was special.

“Could it be that there is some kind of relationship between the red–robed messenger and Bernard?” Haylan thought.

One was the mainstay of the Bernard family, and the other was one of the eight leaders of the Demonic God Society.

If the two of them really worked together, they could do whatever they wanted in the Whileal Kingdom.

“Haylan, you are really powerful. You have even seen this kind of stone before. I’m impressed, Lawrence said with heartfelt admiration.

Haylan glanced at him and said, “You don’t have to admire me. I want to admire you.”

“When you fell into the hands of the red–robed messenger, everyone was worried that you would be killed by the red–robed messenger.”

“Even I thought that you were doomed. I did not expect you to be able to scare that red–robed messenger.”

–“You are even more powerful than me with this Deception Spell. Not bad!”

Faced with Haylan’s praise, Lawrence smiled and said, “It is not that I want to fool him. It is just that his obsession is too deep, and his greed is too strong, causing him to be unable to think rationally. That’s how I managed to deceive him

“I have been lying in bed for so long, and he still thinks I know what spirit gathering array is. It is ridiculous”

“If he kills me as soon as he catches me, I won’t be able to use any tricks”
