Chapter 251 Taking Concerted Action Towards The Common Enemy
Nicholas' heart was full of grief, anger, and rage.
Whatever his heart felt that day was so strong that it had already affected every single human being present in the area.
However, Ricky was also there and noticed Nicholas' downing aura. He came towards him and said, "Nicholas, I'm sorry for your loss. Now that the old leader of the Panther Gang is dead, you have completed your revenge. I really wish that you could hold down your grief today.
I still have one question, though. You have said that your enemy was the late leader of the Panther Gang. But why does it seem like you still want to destroy the entire organization? Haven't you had your revenge already?"
Nicholas calmed himself upon hearing some trigger words from Ricky. After a few seconds of silence, he then spoke, "Russell, all the people that belong, and those who are involved in the Panther Gang are murderers of my father. All of them are considered my enemies. If it weren't for their help, that old bastard would never get the chance to kill my father, and to rape my mother and sister. My poor father, mother, and sister. I swear that I will do whatever it takes to defeat them. I swear to collect this blood debt at all cost!"
"One of my cousins suffered from diarrhea and he went to the bathroom that night. It was unsightly, given the state of his bowel, but he happened to see the whole thing in the dark! And I'm telling you, he was scared as hell. Unfortunately, he died of fright three days later after he told me about what he saw."
Upon hearing Nicholas' story, Ricky started to believe Nicholas more, and was on board with whatever plan he had to defeat the Panther Gang.
"So Nicholas...what do you want to do with them?" Ricky kept asking.
"After the merge between the Axe Gang and the Manor Gang, many members of the Panther Gang felt threatened. This collaboration paved the way for a little lay-low so that they could prepare something bigger to weaken your gang. By the looks of it, they'll attack you guys soon. I think I have an idea. What if you collaborate with me? In that way we can unite with forces inside and out and wipe out the Panther Gang with one blow. What do you think?" said Nicholas in rage.
Nicholas' loathing towards the Panther Gang was never kept hidden from the way he uttered words. Even Ricky could tell the unwavering hatred that Nicholas had just by listening to him speak.
Nicholas had a valid reason to hate the gang. They murdered his family and surely, his grief and anger was within reason. After all, no one in his right mind would be able to process loss gracefully.
"I will take my people away and leave this Chaotic Region. I am tired of this place so much.
But of course, there still might be this other possibility. The possibility of me dying in battle. I guess that would be a better ending for me. I'm just so tired."
All the people had no words to mutter after hearing what Nicholas had said.
Nicholas was processing grief just like any other person who had lost someone, or in his case, lost family members. The people who heard him just fell into silence for they didn't know what to make of it. They weren't sure how to comfort a grieving person. They didn't know how to react to someone who spoke terribly of such an organization, too. But if what Nicholas said was true, this would be a great opportunity for the people to unite and destroy the Panther Gang.
Nicholas understood what was going on. He kept his mouth shut until someone could finally give him an answer.
It was a very delicate situation. Tyson, Trent and Bastian all looked at Ricky at the same time, as if it was orchestrated. They were eyeing Ricky to say something and even make the decision. They all
knew that in this picture, Ricky was the level-headed one.
They weren't aware that they all wanted the same thing from Ricky. It was simple--they trusted him and his judgment. They had already even taken him as the leader of their team!
Ricky responded appropriately. He knew what they wanted from him. After all, he knew that he had no choice in this one for he was a reasonably decisive person all the time.
"Nicholas, count me in!" said Ricky. Then he added, "When would you like to take action?"
"He who strikes first gains the advantage. So everybody, I want to do it tomorrow night. What do you think?" said Nicholas in an cold way.
"Yeah, Sure. We're cool with that. But before that I want to mention one more thing. In my opinion, there stands a good chance that the Panther Gang may have already united with The Ghost Gang!" said Ricky with his visage becoming more severe.
"What? How is that even possible?" said Nicholas in disbelief after hearing what Ricky had just said.
It took him a little while before he was able to absorb what Ricky was trying to tell him. He then said, "I see! No wonder I have seen some people of the Ghost Gang get around the Panther Gang these days!
Now that would explain everything!" Ricky nodded and said, "Then we guessed correctly. They have already united!"
"How did you know about that, Russell?" Nicholas asked abruptly.
"It's just that I remembered that when the old leader of the Panther Gang attacked us, he still had a helper around. Our Men saw his face and recognized he was exact the same person as the leader of the Ghost Gang," said Ricky softly.
"The leader of the Ghost Gang? He was still alive at that time?" Nicholas, Trent and Bastian were all shocked to hear about the news.
"You guys have also mentioned before that there were many gangs in the Lower Region that were secretly destroyed. I overheard some parts of their conversation and I guess that they may be the ones behind this evil doing. It could also be said that they use the same cultivation method in the fight," exclaimed Ricky.
"Treacherous!" sighed all of them at the same time. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
"Okay then let's move on. How about that old bastard from the Ghost Gang?" Nicholas asked.
"Have you forgotten? Both of them died in our hands!" said Ricky.
"Good! Remember that once you spare their lives, they could get revenge... like snakes in the grass!" said Trent as he clapped his hand for effect.
"Russell, since there are still many powerful warriors in the Manor Gang, could you ask some of them to help us?" said Nicholas softly.
"Nicholas, to be honest, the Elder who helped me kill the two evil old devils before has already left. Now, we can only count on ourselves on this!" said Ricky.
"Ah, I see," Nicholas reflected on what Ricky said.
"Now, if you think that our action is too risky, we can all press rewind and pretend that none of this ever happened!" said Ricky when he saw Nicholas' hesitation.
"Russell, I admit that I indeed have some hesitation. You see, I have no choice at the moment. If I still don't revenge my families, I will lose control and die from hatred. So I will work with you by all means! I
have to!" said Nicholas excitedly.
"Okay, so on with our plan!" he added.
Deep sadness and loathing enveloped his eyes. For years, he had been obsessed with revenge and determination to destroy the Panther Gang and avenge his family.
"I love your determination, Nicholas. I hope we can cooperate happily and win this fight!" said Ricky excitedly as he felt Nicholas' tenacity.
"However, aren't you afraid that we will not appear tomorrow night as we discussed? What if we flaked?" asked Ricky with a smile.
Ricky and Nicholas talked with each other once again, guessing each other's purpose. Ricky was also worried about the probability that some others might flake on their plan.
"Russell, I'd still go on with the plan whether you show up or not. I can't wait any longer. It's just too painful for me. I can't stand another day feeling like this!" said Nicholas.
"Alright, deal! And I understand it!" said Ricky.
"Which reminds me... what should we do with the people of the Ghost Gang? I can just get two warriors at the fifth stage of Bone Reinforcement. As you can see, the rest of my men do not have the ability to help us!" said Nicholas after a while.
"Ah, yes. The members of the Ghost Gang can be pretty alarming. They're all strong. But we still have a big chance to win this if we have some people from the inside. We need an insider," said Ricky as he frowned.
"Russell, let us deal with the Ghost Gang. Although we are not as strong as they are, we can still buy you some time!" said the brothers.
"Ouch, man. That hurts. How could you forget us? Leave them to us. We'll beat them to a pulp!"
