The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)

Chapter 290

His voice was hoarse, cold, and aged. It was like the voice of a septuagenarian, filled with mystery.

This voice belonged to Sovereign of Shadows.

After Haylan Jaber became Sovereign of Shadows’ disciple, his initial identity was as a Medic who followed the mercenary group and gained experience while doing all kinds of wound treatment.

Haylan also wore a mask and named himself with a mysterious code a year later, following his master to go on the battlefields. His strength increased step by step, and Haylan gradually became a leader of the mercenary group.

He had also made a name for himself in all sorts of battles.

After mastering his cultivation, the master felt that Haylan could take on a heavy responsibility.

Therefore, Haylan was asked to leave the team by faking his own death. Then, he put on the mask of his master’s and took charge of the entire mercenary group, becoming Sovereign of Shadows.

Only Haylan’s two junior male fellow apprentices knew his true identity.

Because of this, when Haylan returned to the country, his two junior male fellow apprentices would fly an invisible fighter jet to send him off.

The reason Haylan used this particular SIM card to call Jeremy Porter was to avoid exposing his identity. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

After all, his return to the country was prominent. Haylan could not let the others in his bloodline know his identity.

Otherwise, once Haylan’s identity was exposed, all the enemies who had a grudge against Sovereign of Shadows would come over to attack his family and friends, resulting in unimaginable consequences.

Therefore, except for his master and two junior male fellow apprentices, Haylan had to hide his identity as Sovereign of Shadows.

Even when facing the Vice Commander of the mercenaries, he chose to keep it a secret,

“Commander, you’ve finally contacted me.”

There came Vice Commander Jeremy’s excited voice. “Commander, where have you been these days? Are you contacting me for a new

mission?”

“I’m on a secret mission at Longhard Kingdom.”

Haylan, still in his hoarse and aged voice, said coldly, “Three experts from Hell’s Gate are planning to head towards Longhard Kingdom to mess with us. They are White Robe, Milo Clinton, and Wilson. I order you to kill them!”

With that, Haylan hung up the phone, removed the SIM card, and replaced it with his own. The SIM card of the deceased, which had not yet been canceled, was crushed into powder and thrown on the ground by Haylan.

After doing all this, Haylan drove home and even went to the market to buy some fine streaky pork.

One day in the hotel.

Maxwell Rivers was having a wonderful time with his old classmate. Just as he felt like being about to reach the climax, suddenly, with a bang, the door was kicked to pieces.

Henry Sherlock carried a rifle on the back, walking in with a sullen expression.

Maxwell was almost scared to death by the sound. He hurriedly let go of the woman in his arms and looked at the door, scolding Henry in a fury, “Bastard, who are you?”

“How dare you break my stuff? Do you want to die?”

The woman hurriedly covered her body with the blanket with fear in her

eyes.

“You are Maxwell Rivers, right?” Henry said coldly.

“That is right. I am Maxwell. Now that you know my background, how dare you not show me respect?” Maxwell’s face went gloomy.

“You are Maxwell Rivers, then fine.” Henry turned into a cold gaze.

With that, he moved like lightning and landed beside Maxwell.

“You…” Maxwell’s expression changed, and he attempted to block the attack in a rush.

However, Maxwell was obsessed with sex just a few moments ago, so how could he react promptly?

BANG!

Henry punched Maxwell’s right eye hard, causing it to swell.

“You fucking bastard…” Maxwell was furious.

Before he could finish speaking. Henry attacked again. He pressed Maxwell to the ground and beat him crazily. Maxwell got bruised all over his face, suffering so much pain that he would rather die.

In the end, Maxwell was beaten to the ground. He could hardly breathe. His face was so swollen that it even became unrecognizable.

“You blind asshole! Next time, think twice before you offend someone. There is always someone you can’t afford to offend. Learn your lesson.” Henry said coldly.

With that being said, he turned around and left.

“Who the hell are you?”

Maxwell struggled to get up and almost wanted to cry.

He felt really wronged. Why did such a mighty expert suddenly beat him. up for no reason?

“Maxwell, are you alright?” The female classmate stood up. With a worried expression, she helped Maxwell get on his feet from the ground.

“Not dead yet. Damn it, don’t let me find out who this guy is. I’m going to kill him.” Maxwell gritted his teeth, with hatred filling up his eyes.

At this moment, another terrifying aura swept over from outside.

Wayne Dawson strode in wildly. His gaze was sharp as a bloodthirsty wolf filled with killing intent.

He stared at Maxwell and said coldly, “You are Maxwell Rivers, right?”

“Again? Who are you?” Maxwell’s heart trembled.

BANG!

Before Maxwell could finish speaking, Wayne had already appeared in front of him like a ghost. A tsunami-like murderous aura completely engulfed him.

In the next second, Wayne grabbed Maxwell’s head, pressed it to the ground, and kept smashing it until bleeding.

Immediately after, Wayne attacked from all directions, punching and kicking Maxwell until he got bruised all over his face, making it far more bloated than before; his nose, eyes, ears, and mouth were bleeding, revealing a tragic look.

“Remember, this is the consequence of offending Mr. Jaber. The next time you meet Mr. Jaber, you must kneel to him and apologize a few times. Understand?” Wayne said coldly.

Maxwell was beaten so badly that he could not even speak. He got an extremely gloomy look and struggled to squeeze out a sentence. “Who, who is Mr. Jaber?”

Damn it!

Maxwell swore he would kill that so-called Mr. Jaber after recovering from his injuries.

“Haylan Jaber, also known as Mr. Jaber!”

With a cold look, Wayne said, “You don’t have to mess with Mr. Jaber. This is Wayne Dawson, one- star General of the Northern Region Army. If you have the guts, come on and mess with me.”

With that being said, Wayne kicked Maxwell again and left.

Maxwell spat out another mouthful of blood. Holding his stomach, he was too painful to speak.

Maxwell gritted his teeth with his eyes as scarlet as blood. He thought to himself fiercely, “Haylan Jaber, you bastard! It turns out to be you!”

“How dare you have someone beat me. I am going to kill you!”

“Also, the person who dares to claim himself as a one-star General is simply a humiliation to the General. I remember your look. You are doomed.”

Maxwell was furious and wished he could tear Haylan Jaber into pieces immediately.

Resting for some time, Maxwell wiped the blood off his face and stood up while enduring the pain. He staggered out of the door and drove directly to Lightdom Military Department.

Maxwell came to his father’s office and kicked open the door. He shouted, “Dad, I was beaten up by a guy pretending to be the General. You have to stand up for me.”

Maxwell’s father was originally a five-star Lord in the northwest war zone; however, he was now working in Lightdom Military Department due to a job transfer.

Maxwell wanted to use his father’s power to dispatch his troops and kill Haylan Jaber!

However, he was stunned the moment he entered.

The vice commander of Lightdom Military Department, Felix Howard, was actually staring at Maxwell’s father solemnly in the latter’s office.

On the other hand, his father’s face had already turned pale while the man trembled in fear.
