At this moment, in the Margery family house, the leaders of the three guards were kneeling on the luxurious velvet carpet in the patriarch's room with pale faces, and everyone's body was trembling slightly.
In front of them, the legendary mage Ron Margery, who had just extinguished the warehouse fire, was staring at them with a gloomy face, and traces of murderous intent were slowly gathering in his eyes.
"Old Master, please calm down first. This happened too suddenly. After all, no one would have thought that someone would dare to come to our family to cause trouble. They did not discover and eliminate it in advance. It was indeed an oversight, but it was still a mistake.
I won’t make you so angry!”
Behind Ron, an old man with white hair, rich appearance, and wearing a black and gray gold-trimmed robe was sitting on the patriarch's chair, softly comforting the furious Ron.
He is the great-great-grandson of Ron Margery and the current patriarch of the Margery family.
The Margery family is not a family of professionals. The birth of Ron Margery in the family was only possible through the accumulation of countless resources.
They also dreamed of one day becoming a world-class professional family with a long history, and even allowed the women in the family to marry some talented professionals.
Unfortunately, the concept of a professional family cannot be achieved by intermarriage. Without hundreds of thousands of years of accumulation and the continuous efforts of generations of family members, the title of professional family will never be with you.
King's Harbor is a commercial country. There are rare treasures from all over the world. The pile of gold coins is enough to sink a small island and the fragrant orchards that account for 80% of the entire first world market. But this person only lacks the courage to do so.
A bloody warrior who roared at the demons who invaded the first world.
The prosperous economy, comfortable and prosperous life coupled with the unique geographical environment make the aristocratic children here far from the aristocratic children in other human countries who like the bloody battlefield life of bows, swords and iron horses.
In other human cities, even Lugoin, which is no less prosperous than King's Port, the first thing all family children do when they are born is to prepare for the inauguration ceremony when they reach adulthood.
But King's Harbor is different. It is so rich and comfortable here.
The powerful Kingdom of Westmarch resisted all demonic attacks from the north and Tristram from the front, and King's Harbor, located on the promontory, was not among the demons' main attack targets at all.
On the contrary, the powerful demonic forces in Tristram are more willing to attack the barrier mountains guarded by the Roggs than King's Port. Andariel is eager to remove this stumbling block and expand his power.
Extending into the desert behind Dongfang Pass.
In the eyes of the demons, King's Harbor, which is blocked in a promontory, is a piece of fat meat that can be eaten at any time, and precisely because of this, they are not in a hurry to eat it.
It is precisely because the demons have ignored King's Harbor for a long time, giving the people living here the illusion that "the world is actually very peaceful". Under this circumstance, those noble children who have been well-fed and clothed since childhood will naturally not
I am willing to suffer the hardships of being a professional.
After all, even if you let high-level professionals protect you while you upgrade, or even hire high-level mercenaries to guide you, you still have to experience the arduous adventure life yourself!
How can those delicate young ladies in King's Port bear this?
Even the Frank family, the former King of Lions in Hong Kong, the "Lion and Holy Sword", has seen a decrease in the number of professionals employed in the past two years.
In this general environment, as the wealthiest business family, how many of the Margery family's direct descendants are willing to work as professionals?
The patriarch of the Margery family thought that most of the defense matters in the family were now handled by outside hires, and he couldn't help but feel a deep worry in his heart.
Today's incident might not have happened so easily if there were several members of the clan holding important positions in the family guard, right?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"Hey...you three, go down first and take the guards to guard the surroundings. This kind of thing must not happen again!"
"Yes, thank you clan leader for your kindness!"
The three guard captains stood up and quickly exited the patriarch's room as if they had been granted amnesty.
After they all retreated, Ron frowned and turned to look at the great-great-grandson who had been promoted to the position of patriarch by himself, and asked with some dissatisfaction: "Mason, you just let them go like this? This is not consistent.
Your past personality!"
"Old Master, isn't there nothing I can do?
In today's family, you are the Dinghai Shenzhen, but as a legendary professional, aren't you also subject to the control of the parliament?
If one day the council sends a notice asking you to support the second world, won't the entire family still have to rely on these people to protect it?
It is easy to punish them now, but there is no guarantee that these people will not have any complaints in their hearts after being punished. What if they have any bad thoughts about the clan when you leave the clan, then what should we do?"
The patriarch of the Margery family, known as Mason, explained helplessly, with a deep sense of powerlessness in his words.
"They dare!" Hearing Mason's words, Ron was immediately furious. The frost around his body instantly condensed into a solid form, and the temperature in the entire room dropped several degrees as a result.
However, facing Ron's anger, Mason Margery just shrank back, wrapped himself tightly in his coat and remained silent.
Seeing Mason like this, Ron's anger slowly subsided. He knew that his great-great-grandson was indeed telling the truth. Now everything in the family seems to be going smoothly. Even before, he brought the "Shining Aegis" army with heavy losses.
When the troops returned, His Majesty King Mark Wood only scolded him a few times.
But he knew very well that this appearance of prosperity actually concealed a very huge danger, because everything in the Margery family was actually based on his legendary mage.
King's Harbor is a very real country. In the past, the friendship between the Margery family when they helped the Wood royal family to rebel and found the country has long since disappeared over a long period of time. Ron's father, the original founder of the Margery family, was precisely because of
Seeing this, he forced Ron to use resources to become a legendary strong man at all costs.
The reason is that he hopes to rely on his strength to preserve the wealth of the Margery family for several generations.
Didn't another family in a similar situation to them, the Joshua family of "The Diamond Cane", do the same thing?
Thinking of this, Ron also sighed helplessly.
The legendary strong man is strong when he is strong, but he also has no way to deal with the unsatisfactory descendants.
Nowadays, the younger members of the clan are reluctant to even attend the inauguration ceremony. How can we expect them to move forward bravely on the road of professionals and reach the heights they are today?
"Forget it, let it go, but today's attack on the family cannot be picked up high and put down gently. We must let the veterans of the Frank family give us an explanation!
Explosive potion... Huh! They actually asked people to bring all these things into the city! Will there be a devil bottle next time?!"
Ron gritted his teeth bitterly, and a gloomy angry look appeared on his face.
On the surface, the three major families in King's Harbor are harmonious and friendly, but there's no telling how much evil there is behind the scenes.
Although this attack on the Margery family did not bring them any losses, it gave them an excellent opportunity to attack the Frank family.
"Don't worry about this. Your great-great-grandson is not old enough to be a fool yet. If the Frank family doesn't vomit a few kilograms of blood this time, I, Mason, will leave my post and go to plant fragrant fruits in a manor in the suburbs!"
