Chapter 2574 The Heir

February 2161, 1

Beside a dilapidated house, a group of people saw a car passing by. The car stopped for a while, and a group of people swarmed past, stretching out their hands in prayer.

"Give me something to eat."

There are old people, children, women, some disabled people, and some deformed people.

The people in the car immediately shot into the sky, and many people dispersed in horror. A man spat and then said.

"I'm almost starving for food."

At this time, some women still leaned over, hoping to exchange some food. Although a few men were very interested, they gave up. They gave food to others for this kind of thing, and they might starve to death someday.

This is a small gang in exile. At the beginning, there were more than 100 people and eight vehicles, but now there is only one truck and more than 20 people.

The situation on the grassland has reached an unbearable level, many people are living in a difficult life, a large number of towns have been destroyed by the war, and many people have died.

No one remembers how the war started, the war has been going on for more than 10 years, and today is the new year, but many people don't even have anything to eat.

There are dilapidated towns everywhere. Although many towns still have some farmland, because some water supply and heating facilities were damaged in the war, the output of the farmland has begun to decrease.

Although some people wanted to try to repair it, many technicians dragged their families to some relatively stable areas during the war. Now only the areas managed by big families and some medium-sized families are more stable.

And a very serious war broke out between several big families. Some big families have lost a lot of towns, especially those towns sandwiched between big families, many of which have become places that no one cares about.

No one could have imagined that the originally peaceful town would be engulfed by the flames of war overnight.

Negotiations are meaningless. Whoever can finally stand at the top can usher in peace in this grassland. Many people hope that the gods can come forward to solve these problems, but the gods have been staying at home for decades.

But in the past few years, the gods will always see light bursting from the mountains, and then the temperature that originally started to drop will rise again.

Even the town of Gods, which was built not far from the base of the gods, has been involved in the flames of war, and many people have lost their lives. Now the only thing most forces dare not touch is the base of the gods.

Because once there was a group of young people who didn't know how powerful the gods were. They directly attacked the base, but they were easily killed by the gods who came out.

In the territory of the Angus family, there are only less than 20 small towns left. These towns are relatively stable, and people in many surrounding towns are trying to find a way to enter the territory of the Angus family, but the Angus family The city wall has been cast, and it is very difficult to get in.

Not only the city wall, the Angus family also built a military base at the junction of the west and the south, and possessed things like missiles.

The other big families were basically the same as the Angus family. They built a lot of small fortresses as control points in the family territory.

The war has only subsided a little recently, and production has gradually resumed in many places. Food is what most people need most urgently.

The old Rudy stood on the tower, looking at the gunpowder smoke in the distance, it seemed that a car touched a landmine when passing by a road, and the small-scale battle began again.

The Angus family only had city walls on the west and east sides, and built fortifications on the north side, while the south side was close to the road, almost a cliff, and it was difficult to climb up. It was temporarily stable for a year or two.

Rudy and the Su family had already become enemies, because the Su family was desperate and attacked the Angus family from behind at a critical moment, causing the Angus family to lose 9 small towns overnight. These towns not only produce grain, but also There is also a large amount of industrial equipment.

However, the Su family is not much better now. The sharp conflicts broke out within the Su family, and the Su family was once facing collapse.

The big family living the best life on the prairie is the Hillman family. During the war of more than ten years, the Hillman family has basically participated in the war and started plundering at the same time, constantly growing the Hillman family in the east. power, and the Hillman family stopped expanding in a timely manner, only occupying some important towns.

The Hillman family basically scoffed at those insignificant towns.

A long queue formed under the city wall. Basically, outsiders entered the territory of Angus's family to work that day, and had to leave after receiving food in the afternoon.

At present, Rudy has controlled the population of the 17 towns to about 160 million, and the army is 15, which can barely maintain the basic operation. This is already the maximum limit that Rudy can do.

The reason why the Angus family has not been harassed on a large scale is because those big families are afraid of the missiles deployed by the Angus family. This is a sword hanging over the heads of many families.

Rudy also promised that if those big families didn't attack them, he wouldn't attack them. Only two years of peace had been exchanged, but such peace would definitely end one day.

Rudy's spirit is getting worse and worse, and his body is also beginning to have problems. Some organs begin to fail, and the speed is very fast. Now he has gray hair, and Rudy knows that time is running out.

But the Angus family will face a new round of storms. Rudy has been thinking about the heir of the family for a long time, and his sons very much hope to become the heir.

Two of the sons are mutants, and their lifespan will be very long, but Rudy only thinks about who can lead the Angus family to the future.

At this time, a small figure ran over. His name was Avano, the son of the second son Tuke, and the grandson of Rudy.

"Grandpa, what are you doing?"

Avano is just 6 years old, but he is already the smartest and most resilient of the children of the Angus family.

And Avano's father Tuke is also Rudy's most valued heir, but recently the family supports the eldest son because the eldest son has a longer life expectancy.

Rudy hesitated. Although Tuke is very talented, he can handle the family relationship and all aspects of the relationship very well. The most reassuring thing for Rudy is his little grandson Avano. is very good.

Rudy still clearly remembered his father's teaching before his death that the most important quality of an heir to the Angus family was kindness, and both his second son Tuke and grandson Avano possessed this quality.

"Why didn't Grandpa let them in?"

Avano asked, and Rudy laughed.

"Because this place can no longer accommodate everyone."

"Then why not build more places?"

Facing Avano’s successive questions, Rudy answered them patiently. After a while, Rudy carried his grandson down the city wall. He drove back to the conference room. It was already 3 o’clock. here we go.

There must be two hours every day to discuss some issues, which is set by Rudy.

Soon Rudy entered the meeting room, and everyone's faces were not very good. Several sons and daughters began to report their management issues, and other members of some families also started discussing.

"Okay, everyone, let's stop here for now, I want to appoint the next heir of the Angus family today."

As soon as Rudy finished speaking, the conference room fell silent. Everyone watched quietly, and the eldest son smiled.

"Father, tell me, no matter what decision you make, our Angus family as a whole will obey, because the reason why our family can prosper is because we are a whole."

Many other people also echoed, and everyone present understood that Rudy probably would not choose the eldest son, because if he really had to make a decision, he would have made it a long time ago, so there is no need to hesitate and entangle.

But everyone has the same idea as the eldest son, and they are determined to be the heirs of the Angus family, because only in this way can they continue to prosper. Everyone has seen the rise and fall of countless families, and they are very clear about the benefits of being in a mess and having a unified direction. .

"Took, the Angus family will be handed over to you."

Tu Ke was startled with a tired face, and hurriedly got up and asked.

"Father, this is not appropriate."

The eldest son stood up, hugged his younger brother and congratulated him.

"Congratulations Tooke."

Everyone got up and bowed one after another, and then there was thunderous applause, and Rudy laughed.

"I have to say something, everyone, I think you must think that I will not choose Tuke, but the fact is that my father also faced the same dilemma as me back then, but in the end he chose me, and The continuation of our family to the present is enough to prove that my father's choice and vision are correct. I just imitated my father and made the most correct judgment. I hope you can understand."

Although the eldest son was a little uncomfortable, he nodded.

"Don't worry, father, we can all understand the current situation, if we don't unite as one, the whole family will collapse."

After the meeting, Rudy left Tucker alone and asked.

"Any questions?"

Tuke lowered his head and said.

"I'm not a mutant. I'm 31 years old now, and there are still 30 years at most. I'm afraid that if I do."

Rudy put his hand on his son's shoulder and said.

"If you fail, let Avano inherit. I am very optimistic about the future of the Angus family, although I can't see it anymore."

Rudy coughed as he spoke, and his physical condition has been getting worse recently.

"Follow me from tomorrow, I will teach you everything, I don't have much time, use some snacks."

Took hummed and hugged his father.

5pm

Inside the Hillman family, a meeting was going on, and several parties were arguing. Alan was sitting in a wheelchair, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.

The wars of these years have exhausted Allen's last sliver of energy. The Hillman family has successfully become the most powerful family on this prairie. There is ample food and clothing, a stable society, a population of more than 300 million, nearly 30 regular troops and 100 people. Ten thousand reserve force.

Allen knew very well that the following was an extremely critical moment for the family, but at this juncture, people in the family had a fierce dispute over the issue of heirs.

There are five candidates for heir, which is extremely disturbing to Allen, and they all have supporters behind them.

At this moment, Alan asked his five sons to come to him. Looking at the five of them, Alan smiled, stretched out his hands and the five of them surrounded each other, half kneeling on the ground.

Allen exhausted his last bit of strength and pointed at the fourth child. For a while, the other four showed fierce eyes, and Allen motioned for someone to push him back.

There was a lot of noise in the conference room, and Allen had foreseen the result. As soon as he died, the fourth child would die.

Allen chose the least capable and weakest of the five sons. In the future, the Hillman family will fall into a very large internal war.

Alan grinned slightly, and he returned to the room. After the person who served him left, Alan stood up, and his previous sickness had disappeared. He was indeed in poor health, but he could survive for a few more years .

The battle between the heirs of the family will become extremely brutal in the future. This is the method that Allen has chosen from the beginning. Fight each other, and the winner will be king.

Allen planned to witness this feast with his own eyes. He planned to feign death. He had already explained the plan to some confidants in the family. After a while, he would die of illness.

Allen chose the weakest fourth child, who was the fuse of this feast. Allen always believed that only those who got up from the corpses could lead the Hillman family to continue to develop and prosper.

Five people fight among themselves, the weakest fourth will be eliminated first, and the remaining four will start gearing up. Allen made a decision early on that if the original heir dies, the patriarch will be seated in turn by those with the right to inherit.

Then, based on how much benefit the family can gain from the position as the only consideration, it is finally decided who is the heir.

In Allen's view, if in this heir war, those who are eliminated will not inherit the Hillman family.

"Everything has been decided, sorry, although it is cruel, this is natural selection."

The war on the grassland will continue until Shenmen walks out of the base, and Allen also thought that the gods will definitely come to win over their big families first. As long as the big families are unified, all the families will be unified in the end, and the gods will As the top manager, lead the families to build a city.

Allen had noticed many years ago that the gods were trying to make the sun rise on this land.

That's why Allen firmly believes that the future is a beautiful era, so such a cruel method must be used to select an heir so that the Hillman family can continue into the future.

"It would be great if I could see the future. I really want to see with my own eyes how far the Hillman family will grow in the future."

At this time, the door of the room was knocked, and Alan returned to the wheelchair. The door of the room opened. It was the second son, the smartest of all the sons.

"Father, I beg you, don't use such a cruel method."

Sure enough, the second son had seen through Alan's intentions. Alan closed his eyes and fell silent. No matter how the second son begged, Alan didn't respond.
