The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt)

Chapter 11

“What? Take off my clothes?” Haylan asked in astonishment.

Haylan was stunned and did not dare to believe what he had heard. He gazed at Yara in disbelief.

She asked him to remove his clothes as soon as they entered the lab. What on earth was she up to?

Did this beautiful lady want to make a move on him?

“Why are you so surprised? I’m the director here. Just do whatever I ask you to do! Take off your clothes and lie down!” Yara ordered.

“But you should at least tell me what you are going to do?” Haylan asked with a bitter smile.

“Take off your clothes and lie down. I want to do a drug trial on you! I will ask Quentin to fire you if you dare to refuse it!” Yara said aggressively.

Haylan felt a bit disgruntled.

However, given that his job was gained through his father’s begging, he did not want to let his father down. So, he did not argue with Yara. He walked over and took off his security guard uniform.

Yara looked at Haylan’s upper body and instantly exclaimed. She covered her mouth and widened her eyes.

Haylan might look rather weak, but he was actually sturdy. He was muscular with eight-pack abs, showing a kind of masculine beauty.

What astonished Yara was the scars on Haylan’s body.

Haylan had thousands of scars. There were so many of them as if countless worms crawled on Haylan’s body. His body looked extremely horrifying.

The scars included cuts, bullet wounds, and burns…

There were various kinds of scars.

“What’s wrong?” Haylan asked.

“How did you get these scars?” Yara asked in astoundment.

She knew that most of the security guards in the company were retired Special Forces. They must have scars, more or less.

However, Haylan had so many scars that she was freaked out indeed.

“I got them when I went to war before, Haylan said casually.

Yara walked over and touched one of the scars on Haylan’s belly with her beautiful finger, saying, “This is clearly a knife wound. It must hurt a lot, right?”

The scar was as long as 12 inches. It extended from the chest to the abdomen. As one could imagine, Haylan must have been severely wounded back then. His belly was almost ripped open.

“Just fine. It was not that serious,” Haylan said lightly.

The most severe wound he had ever had was a stab through his chest. His heart was almost pierced through. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Compared with that, the wound in his belly was nothing to speak of.

eyes.

Yara looked up at Haylan with a hint of sympathy and admiration flashing across her

Judging from Haylan’s wounds, Haylan must have gone through many hard times and had a lot of unknown stories.

He remained so composed even after surviving. He was a real man indeed!

“Did you ask me to take off my clothes only to look at my wounds?” Haylan asked.

It was then that Yara came to her senses and said, “I asked you here to help do a drug test for me. Lie down. I’ll apply the cream to you.”

Upon hearing that, Haylan let out a sigh of relief.

He was fine with it as long as she did not mean to sleep with him.

He put his clothes aside and lay on the bed.

Yara brought a bottle and took some white cream from the bottle. She carefully smeared it on Haylan’s scars. As she smeared it, she said, “This is our company’s newly developed instant scar cream. It is lucky for you to use this for the first time.”

“Lucky?

“You are using me as a guinea pig here, aren’t you?” Haylan thought.

He was displeased, but he remained composed on the surface and said nothing.

“How are you feeling?” Yara asked.

“I feel cool. Very comfortable,” Haylan said.

“OK. I will observe you for 30 minutes then,” Yara said.

As she spoke, she smeared the cream over Haylan’s scars evenly.

Her fingers were soft. As she touched Haylan’s skin, it gave him a special feeling, making him a bit itchy in his heart.

It was like a lover’s caress. He felt pretty comfortable.

Yara fixed her eyes at Haylan’s scars without blinking.

Thirty minutes later, the cream did not work much. Haylan’s scars were still there, unchanged.

Yara looked disappointed and said, “Alright. You can put on your clothes and get out now,”

She found this formulation in an ancient book. She did not sleep for three days and nights to make this cream.

Unexpectedly, it failed.

Haylan sat up and wiped a bit of cream. He sniffed at it and said lightly, “Notoginseng, sappanwood, sargentodox stem, red sage, and bark of corktree… These are all herbs that can improve blood circulation and promote tissue regeneration. It is a pity that the formulation is wrong.”

“What did you say?” Yara was shocked to hear that.

She independently developed this new cream. She had never told anyone else about it. This was Haylan’s first day of work. How did he know what the formulation consisted of?

Haylan wiped his hands with a composed look and said, “The formulation is wrong!”
