The legendary warrior Chapter 252 The Slaughter Began

Suddenly, the door was pushed open. A woman in a red dress walked in. It was Kristen.

This Kristen seemed very different from who she was. She had been sick for quite a while. She had
been pale and lifeless because of her utilization of the power of her eyes to defeat her enemies. But
now, she looked like totally revitalized, as if she was stronger than before. Her eyes sparkled with
energy. Anyone who was caught by her glistening eyes were in for a trip they wouldn't be able to
escape.

Both Ricky and Tyson were thrilled at the sight of her. They left their seats in a hurry and walked
towards her.

"Kristen! What a surprise! Seems that you've been feeling better!" Tyson blurt out with delight written all
over his face.

"Oh finally you're recovered! What a relief!" greeted Ricky with excitement.

"Yes, here am I! If I left myself glued on the bad and lifeless for eternity, I would have been a great
burden to you guys," Kristen replied with a smile resting on her face.

"So, this is the first leader of the Manor Gang, am I right?" Nicholas also stood up and bowed to Kristen
before speaking. At the same time, he sized her up discreetly and sensed that the woman was strong
enough to defeat him in the blink of an eye.

'So, the first leader of the Manor Gang is a woman?! That's incredible! Being the first leader means that
she is stronger than Russell and Tyson!' Nicholas exclaimed in his mind.

"Ha-ha! Yes, you are right. This lady is none other than the first leader of the Manor Gang. She had
been injured the past few days. But now, she's fully recovered as we all could tell from her refreshed
look," Ricky turned to Nicolas and explained with proud eyes.



"With all due respect, may I know how strong you are?" Nicholas turned his eyes to Kristen and asked
humbly. This was what he was most curious about. Now that he decided to cooperate with the Manor
Gang, he would prefer to make sure this gang was being led by a strong warrior.

"I would say I won't disappoint you in this respect, Nicholas. You have my words, and you do not have
to worry one bit. Now that I've made up my mind to stop the Ghost Gang from bringing tyranny to this
place, I'll surely try my best. I believe my strength grants me the capability to take the Ghost Gang
down. Otherwise, I would not make such a promise. Putting myself at risk is never my style," Kristen
replied, a confident smile resting on her delicate face.

"That's great! I understand everything more clearly now. Thank you for your kind explanation," Nicholas
replied back as he nodded to show his acknowledgment.

"I think I've achieved my goal in coming here to visit you guys. I better leave and return immediately.
Otherwise, Abner would notice my prolonged absence, and that might lead him to having doubts about
me. That is the last thing we would want to happen.

I'm very glad that we've reached a consensus today. Keep our plan in mind and hold on to your words,
please. Because I surely will!"

Nicholas made a bowed slightly to everyone before he bade goodbye. He had told them everything -
what happened between his family and Abner, the current leader of the Panther Gang, and why he was
determined to take revenge on him - to the core members of the Manor Gang. At the same time, he
was lucky enough to see Kristen - the woman who was respected by both Ricky and Tyson - with his
own eyes. Staying for a longer time would only increase the risk of arousing Abner's suspicions. Thus,
he left immediately and headed quickly back to the Panther Gang.

After Nicholas left, Ricky reported his story to Kristen.



"So, guys. What Nicholas just said, what do you think about it? Do you believe his story?" Kristen
squinted her beautiful eyes and asked for other's opinions.

"He seemed sincere. But I couldn't help but have some doubts," replied Ricky, caressing his chin with
his hands.

"I agree with Russell. We can't give him our complete trust. What if he just made up that story to make
us feel sorry for him? What if he was only trying to take advantage of us? We should have a
contingency plan to cope with the possibility of him being a fraud!" Trent chimed in with a nod.

"You are right. Actually, whether Nicholas visited us or not today shouldn't make any difference. We're
going to fight, anyway. The Panther Gang and the Ghost Gang are ready to prey on us all the time. I
have the gut feeling that they are going to start making moves very soon," Ricked said as his eyes
darkened.

"All right. So, we should allocate the distribution of tasks," he continued.

"Well, don't waste much time on the allocation. I'll deal with the Ghost Gang, and you prepare
yourselves in taking down the Panther Gang," Kristen announced decisively.

"No, Kristen! It's too dangerous to engage in a fight with the Ghost alone. They have four warriors at
the sixth grade of Bone Reinforcement! And one of them is at the peak level of the sixth grade! It's too
risky!" Ricky did not think Kristen's plan was something they could afford to do. He wouldn't let her get
trapped into such a life-threatening situation.

Both Ricky and Tyson knew why Kristen was very confident about herself. She was going to utilize the
power of her eyes again. However, they were worried about her condition. After all, she did not spend
much time in recovering.



"I know what you are thinking about. You are afraid that I might get hurt again because of the utilization
of my eyes, am I right?" Kristen said. Deep inside, she was touched by their kind gestures for worrying
about her.

"But don't worry. Let me show you something."

The moment she finished her words, a powerful energy burst out from her body.

"Bang! Bang!"

She released her strength in an instant, flooding the room with all her powerful energy. All the other
people felt an overwhelming aura eating up all the space.

"Th... This is incredible! Kristen, you are close to the seventh grade of Bone Reinforcement!" Exerting
his internal strength to resist the storm-like stifling atmosphere, Tyson exclaimed in shock.

Trent and his brother were even more surprised to see this. The brothers estimated that Kristen should
be at the peak of the sixth grade of Bone Reinforcement at most. But now, what she just showed to
them was clearly the near-seventh grade! She was inches away from the advanced stage of Bone
Reinforcement!

Any warrior at the advanced stage of Bone Reinforcement was getting close to being an innate spirit.
Therefore, even if someone who was close to entering the advanced stage of Bone Reinforcement was
far stronger than the intermediate and inferior stages. The gap of the power between the intermediate
stage and the advanced stage was still enormously overwhelming.

"Yes! But I'm more than just close to reaching the seventh grade. As a matter of fact, I can break
through and reach the seventh grade as soon as I want to!" Before they could digest the information
about Kristen's improvement, she added with confidence spreading all over her face.



"Jesus Christ! Seriously? I can't believe what I'm hearing right now!" Ricky asked, shocked by the
news.

"Bang!" "Bang!" After that, another stronger blast burst out from Kristen's body. Her overt strength
expanded even more, reaching the critical point. Once she crossed that line, she would immediately
step into the seventh grade. Another shocking thing was that all of them could clearly sense that
Kristen hadn't fully released her power yet.

This indicated that she wasn't bluffing; she could reach the seventh grade easily if she wanted to.

Secretly, Ricky initiated his two special zones to check whether this was true. The result was positive.

"For the past month, I did more than just recovering my health," Kristen said. "Tyson, Russell, I'm sure
both of you must have also made some great improvements!"

She turned to Ricky and Tyson and remarked with expectant eyes. "Don't you disappoint me!"

"Ha-ha! What sharp eyes you have! You've seen right through us!" Ricky and Tyson burst into loud
laughter upon hearing Kristen's words. The three of them had gotten along for a relatively long time,
which meant they already knew one another well.

Tyson channeled his strength at the sixth grade of Bone Reinforcement at once in response to Kristen.
He had successfully consolidated his power at the sixth grade by now. Ricky, on the other hand, didn't
display his capability. But actually he had also made great progress in the last twenty days, mostly
working extra hard on casting weapons. Now, he had made it to the second grade of Bone
Reinforcement and consolidated this level as well.

He had been at the peak condition of the first grade of Bone Reinforcement. Add to that, his two
Supreme Skills were also improved enormously when he concentrated on training his casting. Breaking



through his former grade and reaching the second grade was surely necessary. Otherwise, he would
be no different to a useless warrior.

"One at the seventh grade of Bone Reinforcement and one at the sixth grade. Your powerful strengths
are the Manor Gang's secret weapons! Now I can conclude that even if Nicholas made his story up to
use us for his own self-interest, there isn't any need for us to worry one bit. We are going to win, either
way," Trent sighed in shock with wide eyes.

He did not understand why Ricky promised Nicholas and agreed to cooperate with him so easily until
this moment when the three leaders of the Manor Gang displayed their real strengths. Everything was
under their control! Kristen's breakthrough could almost guarantee their victory in any future fights
against any enemy.

"That's exactly true. Even if Nicholas lied to us, it would not make any difference! The Ghost Gang and
the Panther Gang are doomed to fall before us," Ricky claimed in a cold tone, and his face remained
calm as his eyes lit up.

Ricky's original plan was that Kristen and Bastian would lead the Axe Gang to handle the Ghost Gang.
He had wanted Kristen to lead the team because Ricky and Tyson already knew that Kristen's eyes
had recovered from battle.

What he did not anticipate was that Kristen was able to break through and reach a new stage
whenever she wanted. She was in complete control. This was no more than a piece of thrilling news.

"So, our slaughter game begins starting from now! Once we succeed, the Manor Gang will definitely
take control over the whole Lower Region!" exclaimed Ricky with hope in his eyes.

Then he turned to Bastian. "Bastian, ask your men in the Axe Hall to get ready for battle. You and your
men will join me in attacking the Panther Gang tomorrow."



"That's not a problem! We are at your service throughout the way," Bastian replied firmly with a nod
before he left the room. Needless to say, he was heading back to the Axe Gang to mobilize his men.

"So, Kristen. I think it may be better for you to take a dozen men from the Manor Gang along with you
when you confront the Ghost Gang. We just want to make sure you will be intact," Ricky said, still a bit
worried about her.

"Thank you for caring about me. But don't worry and put your mind at ease, Russell! I can deal with it
alone. If there were any emergency which I couldn't fix, it would be much more convenient for me to
run away. Take those guys with you and take down the Panther Gang as early as possible. The sooner
you finish, the sooner you can come to assist me. Do we agree on this?" Kristen insisted. She now
could not know any better about her strength and was one hundred percent sure to beat the Ghost
Gang once they met.

"All right, if you insist!" Ricky now realized that he could never change Kristen's mind, so he quit trying
to convince her.

...

The next day, the Chaotic Region remained a mess where killing and fighting could be found in any
corner of the place.

One different thing which warriors rarely noticed was that the air smelt more bloody and the
atmosphere grew more stressful.

Before long, the night fell.
