Right here in Joao. When Marcus was thinking about how he would make drastic reforms after he came to power, and continue to carry Marcus forward, a maid dressed in a rococo costume came to the garden.

The maid was respectful to Joao. Marcus said, "My lord, almost everyone has arrived, and they are all waiting for you in the ancestral hall. ”

Joao. Hearing this, Marcus took a deep breath and nodded, "Lead the way." ”

From this moment on, he has to take on the responsibility of the head of a family...... I can't continue to be frivolous.

So, surrounded by a group of family attendants, João . Marcus strolled to the Hall of the Ancestors.

It is a huge vaulted fortress hall.

When the Marcus family crossed the ocean to the New World, it was the family's first stronghold and the greatest coordinate in the family's history.

Here, many deceased ancestral tokens are enshrined, leaving countless glorious deeds, which is the great embodiment of the faith of the Marcus family.

Standing in the Hall of the Ancestors, any descendant of the Marcus family will show the humility and respect they deserve...... Except for the patriarch who presided over the ceremony.

When Marcus appeared in the Hall of Ancestors, hundreds of pairs of eyes looked at him almost simultaneously.

There is envy, jealousy, heat, and hatred in these eyes.

Of course, there is more to fear and surrender.

For these gazes, Joao. Marcus doesn't care at all!

When they had finished the family ritual, they all knelt down and kissed their toes to ask for a blessing.

Thinking of this, Joao. Marcus became more and more arrogant.

Walking to the very center of the Hall of the Ancestors, João. Marcus stood at the center of the crowd, then looked around and said, "Hello everyone, fellow clansmen. ”

However, Joao. Marcus's overtures did not receive much response.

On the contrary, there were sneers from the audience that were secretly mocking.

The scene was very awkward for a while.

Joao. Marcus knew very well in his heart that his father had died too early, so that his own strength was weak.

If my grandfather was still alive, the elders of those uncles and uncles would not dare to give themselves a face.

But now my grandfather has also died, and there is a transfer of power...... A lot of people are going to be dissatisfied.

But Joao. Marcus didn't panic.

The inheritance of the ancient family must have its own stable and mature side, and these elders must be weighed if they want to do something out of the ordinary.

Weigh whether you have the capital to overturn the family law.

Joao. Marcus looked back at the family housekeeper on the side and said, "Since everyone is here, let's get started." ”

According to the family tradition, he will inherit the position of the patriarch here, and then wear the family crest representing the patriarch, and then everything will be logical.

However!

Today's events are not destined to be so easy.

A voice spoke, "Wait." ”

Everyone looked for prestige, but saw a man in a black dress swaggering into the ancestral hall with a cigarette in his mouth.

The man is burly and has a red beard on his face, which looks a lot like Nunez when he was younger. Marcus, it's just that this man's body is more swollen and his appearance is more rough.

Joao. Marcus looked at the man and knew that it was his uncle, Da Silva. Marcus.

As a family elder who is a generation older than himself, this uncle is not an ordinary person!

Da Silva. Marcus has many reputations, the most prominent of which is the title of Governor of New Oron in the Southern World, and is the leader of the Lighthouse Nation.

As soon as da Silva spoke...... Joao. Marcus's face was instantly difficult to look at.

Uncle da Silva was not a good man.

The ruthless man who can help the Dark Lighthouse Empire take down a state with guns in this civilized age, João. Marcus felt that he had a little bit of weight in front of him.

"Uncle Da Silva, what do you have to say?" Joao. Marcus asked softly.

Redbeard sneered: "Joao, you are too young, the position of the head of the family is for you to sit on, can you sit firmly?" It's better for you to hand it over first, and wait for the uncles to lay a good foundation for you, and then you can sit down. ”

Hearing this, Joao. Marcus pale.

This is clearly forcing yourself!

"Uncle Da Silva, the family has family rules, and grandfather has made a will, can you overturn it by yourself?"

Joao. Marcus asked.

"Little nephew, you are too young, you must know that the status of the family today is based on the law of the jungle, not some bullshit will, didn't the old man teach you this truth?" Da Silva. Marcus let out a deafening roar.

This voice was immediately supported by several forces in the family, and everyone demanded that a new head of the family be chosen among the powerful branches of the Mesozoic Era, which would be more conducive to a piece of the pie.

But in doing so, you have to challenge the rules of the dead old man.

For the fledgling families, the living old man is the real deterrent.

The old man who died should listen to the stories of others in peace. ……

Joao. Marcus fell into absolute passivity.

Just when the atmosphere in the ancestral hall gradually became solemn, a group of uninvited guests arrived.

I saw a team of black-hatted people wearing black custom-made aristocratic trench coats rushing to the ancestral hall.

As soon as these people appeared, all the members of the Marcus family were directly surprised, this place was the core of the Marcus family, and it was heavily guarded outside......

Da Silva. Marcus's red beard trembled, and the Governor was about to take advantage of the opportunity to stand out in the family's ensuing infighting.

But he didn't want to be the first old man to take off his top hat, revealing a thin face and full of silver hair.

The moment he saw the old man, Da Silva. Marcus lost all arrogance.

"Speaker Morgan, why are you here?" Da Silva exclaimed.

This old man is the president of the Southern Council of the Lighthouse Empire, and Hannibal, known as the "ogre". Morgan.

In front of this old man, as powerful as Da Silva, he is just a small person.

The old man looked around, and then said slowly: "I am the testamentary trustee of Nunez, and I am here today to deal with his posthumous affairs. ”

Hearing this, Joao. Marcus couldn't help but let out a long breath.

The old man really had no last resort, and actually asked the speaker to ask in person.

Now my position is stable!

Joao. Marcus could almost have sworn that he hadn't been grateful to his grandfather for more than a second in his life.

……

Really!

The moment Morgan Sr. appeared, everyone in the Marcus family chose a sane silence.

The old guy is famous for killing, and his viciousness is internationally renowned!

It was this old guy who ordered the bombing of Yu Xia's embassy in East Hesse, causing a series of international turmoil and successfully selling the Morgan family's arms to the world.

This old guy ...... It's the biggest shark in the deep waters.

Moreover, the old guy never takes risks, and these black hats he brings with him can easily break through the defenses of the Marcus family and reach this core area.

By all indications, he came prepared.

"You don't have to be so nervous, I can use the honor of the Morgan family to assure you that as long as there is no excesses, no one will be harmed." Morgan said lightly: "The reason why I came here is to let my best friend Nunez. Marcus's will can be executed without any problems. ”
