The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 982

Chapter 982

“Is this Lightdom City, the city of Longhard Kingdom?”

Earth Dragon got off the plane, left the airport, and came to the most luxurious place in the city. He looked around. Being in a pensive mood, he said, “I never expected that Longhard Kingdom would develop to this extent over the years.

“I remember they were still very poor thirty years ago.”

He looked young, but he was actually in his fifties.

Many years ago, he had visited Lightdom City once and personally witnessed the poverty and backwardness of this

country.

He did not expect Longhard Kingdom to develop to such an extent in just thirty years. He was shocked.

By his side, there were a man and a woman accompanying him. The woman had long, blood–red hair and was known as Scarlet Rose. She had a tall and seductive figure. She kept playing with two daggers in her hands.

As for the man, he was not particularly eye–catching and would not draw much attention in a crowd. The only thing worth mentioning was that he was wearing a black eyepatch on his left eye. His name was One–Eyed Dragon.

“Boss, what should we do next?” Scarlet Rose asked.

“Do nothing.” Earth Dragon said in a serious tone. “Hide first.”

The three of them did not come into contact with any of the important figures in Lightdom City. Instead, they remained hidden, leaving their intentions unknown.

A powerful individual, cloaked in a black robe, arrived from Floating Island. His aura was immensely strong. He declared to his subordinates that his purpose in coming to Lightdom City was to kill. However, he did not disclose the identity of his

target.

In addition, there were also many powerful individuals who held grudges against Steve or the Longhard Kingdom. They took advantage of this opportunity and infiltrated the land of Lightdom City. Ordinary methods of investigation could not uncover their identities or determine their whereabouts.

Amidst this hidden turmoil, Haylan’s subordinate, Yin–Yang Duo, made a discovery.

They received secret intelligence that a Demigod named Macmillan, who was a member of Radiant Society and also under the command of Terence, would join forces with another powerful individual to sabotage the King–Conferring Ceremony before it began. They would blow up the King’s Platform.

On the day of the King–Conferring Ceremony, it was certain that there would be a massive crowd with many important figures in attendance. If the King’s Platform was indeed blown up, it was uncertain how many people would be injured or killed.

Yang Envoy said, “Mr. Jaber, Macmillan came into contact with a few uninvited guests. How should we deal with them?

“Should we capture all of them alive?”

Yang Envoy of the Yin–Yang Duo was standing atop a large tree in a forest that was located in the suburb. He called Haylan. He was wearing a fiery red robe that was adorned with flame patterns.

These flame patterns were particularly strange and terrifying.

Nigel Yang was his name.

Inside Reign’s villa, Haylan was holding Reign in his arms and sleeping. When he heard the phone call, his eyebrows raised.

He pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, “Capture them alive if you can. But if there’s any danger, as long as you can survive, that’s all that matters. The others are not important.”

“Alright, got it,” Nigel said. “I assure you that I’ll capture them alive.”

“Okay,” Haylan said. “Good luck.”

Haylan hung up and frowned in deep thought.

“What’s wrong?” Reign asked.

Reign lifted her head from his embrace, her gaze filled with confusion.

At this moment, she was wearing a school uniform and had two ponytails. She looked incredibly youthful and exuded a pure and innocent schoolgirl vibe.

“It’s nothing.” Haylan said. “Just caught a little mouse. Don’t worry about it. Let’s continue
