The legendary warrior novel Chapter 249

It was completely beyond belief! At the time Ricky and Trent went into the castle, they were implacable rivals. At the moment they walked out of the castle, they had already become bosom buddies. It was incredible how fast things could change!

Before the warriors could react, Trent walked up and spoke loudly to them, saying, "From now on, the Axe Gang has been incorporated into the Manor Gang. We have become the Axe Hall -- one of its halls!"

This announcement was like a bombshell! His warriors were in total shock!

"We must be dreaming! Our gang has turned into one of the Manor Gang's subordinate halls?!" A number of warriors yelled loudly when they recovered from the shock.

The world had just underwent tremendous changes for the leaders of the smaller gangs in the region. Everyone involved was dumbfounded.

"Trent must be spellbound by Russell's great charm and distinction. Russell is devastatingly handsome!" Even Tyson was surprised.

When Ricky and Trent went into the castle to compete with each other, Tyson had expected Ricky to win the competition in the end. He had still never expected that Trent had lost in admiration and grew great respect and adulation for Ricky. It was even more incredible that Trent was really willing to work for Ricky.

"Trent! My brother... you..." Bastian called to Trent. He was angry at the situation and worried for his brother.

"Bastian, I know you cannot accept my choice yet, but please believe in me!" Trent answered, staring into Bastian's anxious eyes. "In the future, I'll give you a satisfactory explanation, but for right now you should just support me!"

"I will trust you, brother!" Bastian finally nodded in agreement, although he was extremely reluctant.

In the depths of Bastian's heart, his brother Trent was more important than the Axe Gang.

'Those two must be close!' Ricky thought to himself enviously as he watched them. He highly appreciated Bastian's loyalty to his brother. In the cruel world they lived in, strong warriors preyed upon weaker ones and big fish ate little fish. The two brothers were flesh-and-blood human beings and had brotherly love to separate them from the animals. It was something that was rare and highly commendable.

As for the competition, Ricky's casting skills had made Trent worship the ground that he trod on.

During the process of the competition, Ricky had played his ace -- the Pounding Skill of the Chaotic Fire Skill. Although it posed a risk to his top secret as who he really was, he had to use it in order to win Trent's support. Ricky did not regret his choice.

That was why he had chosen to compete with Trent inside the castle.

Ricky had ignored one thing, though. That thing was that Kristen had spent every minute of the competition watching his Pounding Skill.

The moment Ricky showed his Pounding Skill, Trent not only candidly admitted defeat, but he also expressed his desire to acknowledge Ricky as his teacher. As a casting master who really loved casting, the dizzying heights of the Pounding Skill was a great magnet to draw him in.

Ricky declined, of course. He had still promised to discuss and explore casting skills with Trent though.

With things happening that way, Trent suggested that he was willing to be incorporated into the Manor Gang. Ricky had not declined Trent's request at all. He had instead readily agreed to it. Getting Trent to join them had been Ricky's plan all along.

Trent and Bastian were actually his highly sought-after talents. Ricky thought nothing of the other members of the Axe Gang.

...

Trent was relieved and gratified to see Bastian supporting him once more. In this bloody and cruel world, such brotherly love was the most precious treasure of all things. Countless gold coins, untold cultivation resources, and the highest status--they all meant nothing to Trent!

"My fellow brothers, thank you a million times over in advance for your participation in the Axe Gang. Maybe my decision is totally unacceptable to you and you think you can't handle the change. I know it is sudden, but I have made up my mind. In the coming days, if you are willing to follow my lead, I will do my best to accommodate your needs as we transition into joining the Manor Gang!" Trent proclaimed his decision in front of all the warriors of the Axe Gang.

"If you decide to leave, I will not be your enemy. I am going to cast a handy weapon for each of you, or give 400 gold coins to each of you. All that is just little gift as a token of my appreciation for your service. Please do take it."
