Haylan was someone who did not like to be restrained. As the head of the security department in Mapleturz Group, he was especially carefree. Even Reign could not order Haylan to do anything.
If Haylan joined Dragon Team and was ordered by others in the future, wouldnât his identity as Mercenary King be laughed at by others?
If Haylanâs master found out that he was being managed, he would kill Haylan.
Therefore, Haylan did not want to live under someone elseâs restriction. Joining Dragon Team was essentially a partnership with Dragon Team âMr. Jaber, your request puts me in a difficult position.â Zachary frowned.
No one was allowed to force Haylan to go on a mission. In essence, Haylan was on equal footing with all the higher-ups. No one could order Haylan around.
âThen you guys can think about it carefully. After all, the two of us have plenty of time, right?â
Haylan said calmly.
With that, Haylan flicked the invitation letter back into Zacharyâs hand.
At the side, Linda was dumbfounded.
In the matter of joining the Dragon Team or not, Haylan even bargained like this?
Even a Warrior like Linda would feel honored to join Dragon Teain. She even wanted nothing more than to show her loyalty and risk her life to join Dragon Team.
However, Haylan was so disdainful, and his conditions were so doinineering. He actually wanted to do missions according to his own wishes.
This was simply tooâ¦.
Linda looked at Haylan and didnât know what to say.
âI need time,â Zachary said.
âUnderstood. I need time too,â said Haylan.
The two of them looked at each other with different expressions.
âOfficer Korran, on behalf of the Dragon Team, thank you for your cooperation.
âI still have something on. Iâll leave first.â
Zachary put away the invitation letter and nodded at Linda. Then, he walked into the elevator and quickly left downstairs.
After Zachary left, Linda looked at Haylan in shock. âMr. Jaber, youâre too amazing. You can even negotiate with someone from the Dragon Team. I donât even dare to think about it.â
Haylan smiled faintly and did not answer the question. Instead, he glared at Linda. âIs this how your chicken plays basketball?
âOfficer Korran, arenât you going overboard by lying to me like this?â
Lindaâs expression changed. He apologized sincerely, âMr. Jaber, Iâm sorry. Dragon Team gave me this mission to lure you to my house. I canât think of a way, so I can only tell you this.
âHeâs from Dragon Team. I canât reject him.â
As Linda spoke, she looked at Haylan pitifully.
Linda was especially beautiful. She had fair skin, big eyes, and dimples. At this moment, she looked at Haylan with such a gaze and looked so pitiful that no one could get angry.
Haylan sighed and said, âAlright, I wonât argue with you this time. There wonât be a next time.â
With that, Haylan turned around and was about to leave.
âMr. Jaber, hold on.â
Linda quickly pulled Haylan back and said, âI lied to you before. My chicken really doesnât know how to play basketball, but my cat can do backflips and skills!â
Haylan frowned slightly. âOfficer Korran, lying to me once is enough. Why do you still want to lie to me a second time?
A chicken that knew how to play basketball was already very ridiculous. Because of treating Linda as a friend, Haylan chose to believe that once.
Now, Linda actually said that she had a cat that knew skills and knew how to do backflips. Did Linda think that Haylan was upid and wanted to continue lying to him?
âI didnât lie to you about that.â
Linda held Haylanâs hand and said, âGive me a chance. Iâll prove it to you. I promise I wonât disappoint you.â
After saying that. Linda called out to a room. âBlueberry, itâs your turn to perform!â
After saying that, Linda even whistled a very special tune.
After the whistle, a blue figure suddenly rushed out of the room.
Looking closely, it was a very fat cat covered in blue fur.
After it appeared, it stood up on its hind legs, put its palms together, and bowed to Linda.
Without another word, Linda opened the drawer in the living room, took out a few dried fish, and threw them to the cat.
The cat immediately jumped up, rolled a few times in the air, and accurately picked up a piece of dried fish in its mouth.
At the same time, its front paws were not idle either. They grabbed a few dried fish.
After landing on the ground, it rolled a few times and was safe and sound. It enjoyed the dried fish very much and looked especially happy.
âLook! Iâm not lying to you, right? It can really roll in the air,â Linda said.
Haylanâs expression changed.
The cat really knew how to do backflips.
Although this cat could not compare to some of the battle beasts with spirituality in the Shadow Knight, it was already not bad.
âBlueberry, come. Give Mr. Jaber a performance of skills. If you perform well, you will be rewarded with a bag of premium cat food for you to eat!â Linda said.
When the little blue cat heard this, it immediately swallowed the dried fish and got into a fighting stance on the spot. It began to perform a drunken fist.
When Haylan saw this scene, his eyes widened.
Haylan looked at Linda in extreme surprise. âHow did you do it?â
There were also beast tamers in Shadow Knight who could train some wild beasts to be intelligent and wait for orders to fight.
In particular, there was a great beast tamer in Shadow Knightâs fleet. This person was good at controlling wild beasts. He could control all kinds of fish in the sea to detect information and attack the enemyâs ships. His methods were astonishing.
However, most of the beasts relied on their instincts to attack the enemy.
There were no cases like this little blue cat that could do skills.
Linda looked proud and said, âBlueberry is a stray cat I picked up on the mountain. Itâs very smart. It can learn a lot of things I teach it.â
âA stray cat that was picked up? So smart?â Haylan was stunned again.
Linda nodded and said, âYes, Blueberry is actually very pitiful. When I was on a trip to Avalon Peak previously, I heard the sound of a cat in the forest, so I rushed over to take a look and found Blueberry lying in a pool of blood.
âAt that time, it was very small. It was only the size of my palm. I donât know what beast attacked it, but it was covered in blood.
âThere are also many traces of wild beasts fighting around it. Claw marks are everywhere.
âAt that time, there were still low roars from wild beasts in the depths of the forest.
I wrapped Blueberry in a clean towel. When 1 rushed to the forest to take a look, I found a large blue cat and a tiger lying in a pool of blood. They died together.
Ithink that big blue cat should be Blueberryâs mother. That tiger should be the beast that attacked Blueberry. In order to protect it, Blueberryâs mother did not hesitate to fight the tiger to the death and perish together.â
At this point, a trace of sadness flashed across Lindaâs eyes, and a tear flowed out.
Hearing this, Haylan frowned slightly. âAre you telling a fairy tale? What kind of cat can kill a tiger?
Besides, Avalon Peak is already a tourist attraction now. How could a tiger appear?â
