Chapter 247 Casting Monopoly On The Lower Region (1/2)
To these members, Ricky gave each one hundred gold coins as the rewards for staying.
Hence, these members promised him their unwavering support. After all, one hundred gold coins were not a small sum of money. Normally, for such an amount, they'd have to hunt beasts at Bone Reinforcement for over half a month or even more.
...
The following day, in the Lower Region, almost everything went on as usual, except for a few things. Some unfamiliar faces whose arrival no one seemed to have a clue about were seen around the Manor Gang. Most likely, they were from the Panther Gang and the Ghost Gang, sent by their leaders to spy on Ricky and his companions and confirm the rumors.
Once they established that all the three leaders of the Manor Gang were still alive, they quickly left to report back to their leaders.
The senior members of the Panther Gang and the Ghost Gang sensed a strange aura about their leaders. They all seemed to be very anxious, even as they went about their duties with the unflappable air of battle hardened warriors.
To raise more suspicion for the day, the leader of the Ghost Gang secretly came to the leader of the Panther Gang. Nobody knew what they had talked about behind closed doors in the chamber. Anyway, after they came out, they looked rather depressed.
...
Ricky, Tyson, and Kristen knew there were spies lurking around, but they were not worried. If the leaders of the two gangs dare come to the Manor Gang, Ricky and his team would just let them come and see what would happen.
In half a day, the remaining members of the Manor Gang had collected all kinds of casting materials.
After that, Ricky started his casting directly.
In his casting, Ricky didn't use the Pounding Skill of the Devouring Skill and the Chaotic Fire Skill. Instead, he used the alternative pounding methods devised and taught by Elder Alexander and Elder Samuel.
He concealed his intricate skills so as to stay under the rudder for as long as he possibly could.
