The Invincible Mercenary King (Haylan Jaber)

Chapter 946

Jerome’s voice carried a hint of curiosity and suspicion as he directed his question toward Haylan. “Mr. Jaber, do

you genuinely don’t know or are you feigning ignorance?

Haylan’s response was firin as he shook his head. “I genuinely have no idea.”

Jerry’s brows furrowed as he directed a perplexed gaze at Haylan. “Mr. Jaber, the reward for the Stone King Cup

this time is truly remarkable. Are you truly unaware of this?”

Haylan coxinued to shake his head.

The Griffith brothers exchanged a quick glance, their eyes reflecting the mutual astonishment they felt.

How could Haylan not know such an important thing?

Jerome’s restrained expression concealed his thoughts as he elucidated, “The Stone King Cup holds immense

significance this time, and the rewards it offers are truly exceptional.

“By participating in the Stone King Cup, you have the chance to catch the attention of the organizers and secure a

coveted position in the country’s new department, the Earth Vein Master.

“Furthermore, the gemstones used in the Stone King Cup finals are of exceptional value. Rumor has it that the

gemstones alone are worth hundreds of millions, and they will be awarded to the champion.

“Lastly, by winning the Stone King Cup, you not only secure a prize worth tens of millions of dollars, but you also

earn the trust of Steve himself. This means you’ll be granted significant authority and command exclusive

resources and forces as a trusted aide of the Earth Vein Masters.

“These three conditions were publicized just four days ago, and the news quickly spread throughout the city, if not

the entire country.

“In essence, winning the Stone King Cup will propel you to the pinnacle of success.

“Mr. Jaber, you really don’t know?

Four days ago?

Haylan smiled bitterly and said, “Four days ago, I was still at Whileal Kingdom.”

When the Griffith brothers heard this, they understood.

No wonder Haylan didn’t know the importance of Stone King Cup. It turned out that Haylan was overseas at that

time. “What’s an Earth Vein Master?” Haylan asked.

Jerome elucidated. “The Earth Vein Master is merely a colloquial term we use. Officially, it is known as the

Geological Investigation Bureau, responsible for surveying and monitoring the country’s mountains and rivers to

locate the coveted dragon vein.

“Their job is to seek the dragon and strike its acupoint and nail something to death!”

“Something?”

“According to legend, prolonged exposure to the dragon vein can cause a transformation, turning ordinary beings

into extraordinary dragons. The descendants of those buried within this dragon vein possess the potential to

become formidable individuals. The task of the Geological Investigation Bureau is to locate such dragon veins and

neutralize the imminent transformation, ensuring that the potential dragon is kept at bay!”

“Why?”

“By sealing off the dragon vein, any possibility of a new king emerging is eliminated. The country will remain stable,

and Steve will remain on the throne.”

Haylan frowned slightly when he heard this.

Were these people all so superstitious?

The layout was indeed infinitely useful, capable of altering one’s destiny and bringing fortune to one’s family.

The flow of the dragon vein was originally a natural phenomenon. By forcibly severing the dragon vein, its natural

course would be disrupted.

However, the dragon vein could not be severed or halted.

If severed in one location, the dragon vein would gather and flow elsewhere.

Eventually, the dragon vein would converge at an elusive point, giving rise to a new emperor.

This was the immutable law of nature, an inevitability that could not be escaped.

Chapter 946

Indeed, the rise and fall of dynasties was an eternal cycle. With the passage of time, new talents would emerge,

challenging the existing order and bringing about the transformation of dynasties.

It was simply wrong for Steve to establish this so–called Earth Vein Master,

However, not many people could clearly recognize this point.

Haylan glanced at everyone present and frowned slightly.

At that moment, it finally dawned on him why there were so many experts gathered here. It became clear that they

were all driven by the allure of power and personal gain.

Once they claimed the championship, they would not only acquire fame but also amass a great fortune.

Once they entered the so–called Geological Investigation Bureau, it meant that they would have the authority to

steer the course of the underground dragon vein.

If people with hidden agendas managed to infiltrate the Geological Investigation Bureau and manipulate the natural

path of the dragon vein, it could potentially disrupt the existing power structure.

The

consequences could be dire, leading to instability and endangering the livelihoods of the people.

Haylan looked at the final stage of Cup Stone King and thought to himself, “For the sake of the world, we definitely

can’t change the dragon vein, let alone let people with ulterior motives enter the Geological Investigation Bureau.

“I must win the Stone King Cup this time!”

If the dragon vein fell into the hands of some people with ulterior motives, the consequences would be

unimaginable. Instead of that, it was better to be in his hands.

At the very least, he was now successful and would not destroy the dragon vein. He could also ensure the

prosperity of Longhard Kingdom.

As time passed, the thirty people finished drawing lots. The ten groups of people had already been assigned their

corresponding seats. The staff sent the number plates of the corresponding stalls to the participants.

At the same time, the staff brought the participants to the designated stall in the orange area.

Every piece of raw stone was covered with a special lid. It made it impossible to detect the details of raw stone in

advance. It was very mysterious.

Moreover, there were only 24 raw stone pills in each stall.

Everyone got eight.

*Reducing the total amount means that it will increase the difficulty of appraising. It will definitely be very difficult to

distinguish these raw stone,” Haylan thought to himself.

About five minutes later, the ten groups of people arrived at their respective stalls and stood in three corners in a

triangular formation.

Haylan and Russel stood in the same stall, staring at each other with cold eyes.

“Haylan, even if you don’t bet with me, you still have to compete with me in the end.”

Yussel didn’t even look at Hickman. He just stared at Haylan and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Jaber, now, do you want

to make a bet with me?

“If I win, I need you to kill someone for me.

“If I lose, I’ll do whatever you want.”

“If I remember correctly, you lost a bet with Mr. Griffith and you can’t harass me. Aren’t you afraid that Mr. Griffith

will settle scores with you?” Haylan stared at Yussel with a cold gaze.

What was this guy trying to do? He kept coming to make a bet with him as if he would definitely win. Did he have to

kill

him?

“I’m not harassing you. I’m just interacting with you normally. Anyway, we’re going to have a competition soon,

right?” Yussel said.

“Who do you want to kill?” Haylan asked.

“You know this person too, Robert!” Yussel said.

Haylan raised his eyebrows. “You have a grudge against him?”

“Sort of. He must die!” Yussel said.

When he mentioned Robert, his eyes flashed with deep hatred and anger.

Then, he sighed and said, “Unfortunately, with iny strength, I can’t kill Robert”

Chapter 946

With your strength, it’s indeed quite difficult to kill Robert, Haylan said indifferently

Yssel stared at Haylan and said with a serious expression If you don’t want to bet, I’ll hire you. I’ll pay you 20 million

dollars to kill Robert for me. How about that?
