"Alyssa, do you know about the Elvis family's test?"

Duke looked up and asked.

"have no idea."

Alyssa shook her head.

"That's right. This is about the direct heir. You don't know what's normal..."

Duke shook his head and then fell into thinking.

The person who just called him was the head butler of the Elvis family. Through the phone call, he also learned a lot of things.

In the Elvis family, any male member of the direct line is eligible to become the head of the family. Of course, this does not mean that women cannot do it, they can do it as well, provided they do not marry outside and belong to the family wholeheartedly.

Although Duke has only returned to the family not long ago, he is also qualified to become the next head of the family.

There are nine direct descendants of the Elvis family in his father's generation.

They are three uncles, two uncles and three aunts.

Among them, two aunts married out, and although their children can still be considered members of the Elvis family, they no longer have the right to inherit.

The remaining Aunt Kathy, although she has remained in the family since her husband's death, has no issue.

In other words, those who enjoy the inheritance rights of the family head are his three uncles and the children of two uncles. Of course, this includes himself.

Duke's generation has many direct descendants. After all, their parents cannot have only one child. There can be as few as two or three, as many as seven or eight.

But no matter how many people there are, in the final analysis, only these five houses will compete for it. In fact, they will decide the quota internally first, and then the winner will compete for the position of the next head of the family.

Although Duke is only one person, he represents a whole room.

For those uncles and uncles, they naturally do not want one more person to compete for the position of the head of the family.

In particular, Duke is not alone.

Although Duke's father, Earl Baker, died, his faction had not completely dispersed, and there were still some supporters.

Duke himself may not have any thoughts of competing, but those supporters definitely do!

Otherwise, they would have taken refuge with others long ago, and there is no need to stick around and not leave.

Those uncles may not be worried that Duke can take away the position of the next head of the family, but no one likes a disruptor to appear.

What's more, in this world, everything is possible, and no one can predict such things.

"Maybe that's why they don't like me..."

Duke thought silently.

He has always felt that the family's dislike of him must be related to interests, and the position of the next heir to the family head is obviously a big enough interest.

To be honest, according to Duke's character, he will definitely not participate.

After all, he has a huge disadvantage and will definitely not be able to fight, and he has no such ambition.

However, the Elvis family has a rule that at least one person in each house must participate in the competition.

Duke is the only child of their lineage, and he has to participate even if he doesn't want to, unless he is kicked out of the Elvis family and severed from all ties... obviously it won't be to this extent.

The competition for heirs is to cultivate their wolf spirit, and the purpose is good. After all, in this era of catastrophe, people cannot stand firm without ruthlessness.

But Duke really didn’t want to get involved!

Now he just wants to become stronger, stronger, and stronger again!

Whoever wants to be the head of the family can be the head of the family, and this is the next head of the family. Who knows how many years will have passed by the time he becomes the head of the family.

But the Elvis family gave him a chance to refuse. The butler called and said it very politely, but Duke knew that this represented the will of the Elvis family and he was not allowed to violate it.

"It really doesn't work...just try to catch a fish."

Duke rubbed his chin and thought.

The rule is that he must participate, but it doesn't say that he is not allowed to fish.

The family test actually started very early, and Duke was halfway there. The topic of the test was to make a name for himself in the medical industry in the City of Dawn.

The Elvis family's medical industry is very developed and plays a decisive role in the entire Dawn City. Therefore, the next head of the family does not expect to expand much, but at least he must maintain these foundations.

On the phone just now, the chief steward gave Duke a suggestion, asking him to start by setting up a medical company.

To be honest, Duke didn't know anything about medical treatment. But there was no way, since it was forced by the family, he could only follow it, unless he didn't want to hang out in the City of Dawn.

But just when Duke was thinking about where to start, Casey suddenly came.

"Little Duke, are you okay?"

Today, Casey is wearing a clean white coat and has yellow eyes on his face. He looks like a researcher.

As soon as she came in, she gave Duke a big hug.

Duke was used to it and looked helpless.

"I'm fine."

"I've been in the laboratory these days and don't know what's going on outside. I heard you were attacked, so I came over quickly. Now I'm relieved to see you're okay!"

Casey patted his chest with a look of fear on his face.

"Thank you Aunt Kathy for your concern. I'm really fine."

Duke smiled and said, it does feel good to know that someone cares.

"That's good, that's good. By the way, you should be participating in the competition to be the next head of the family now, right?"

Casey asked suddenly.

"Yes, the housekeeper just called me."

Duke nodded, there was nothing to hide.

"That's just right. I recently established a new medical company and can help you!"

Casey touched Duke's head and said.

"ah?"

Duke's mouth opened slightly.

"Haha, don't get excited. I know that not many people in this family think highly of you, but I am different from them. I think highly of you!"

Casey patted Duke on the shoulder.

Duke suddenly complained endlessly in his heart, he really didn't want people to think favorably of him!

He was not as interested in the future head of the family as he was in "Vault 39".

Moreover, if he really wants to compete openly, Duke doesn't think that his brothers and sisters will stand by and watch, maybe they will give him some special "care"! He is still very weak and cannot waste time.

"Aunt Kathy, I think I can't compete with them, so-"

"How can you say you can't fight? You can't say that. With my help, and your father and some followers, you are definitely qualified to fight!"

Casey seems to be more confident than Duke.

"Well, you may not know much about the medical industry. Let me take you to my newly established company to have a look!"

Casey thought for a moment and said.

Duke wanted to refuse directly, after all, he just wanted to fish, but Casey's last words made him change his mind.

"Oh, by the way, the location of my company is very special. It is a pre-war ruins that I bought at a high price. Maybe you haven't seen the ruins yet..."
