Ryan walked down the stairs, through the hallway, to the foyer, with a wooden box in one hand and a duffel bag in the other.

Along the way, I didn't meet a single person, only the sound of my own footsteps echoed in the empty aisle, and at intervals, the time difference seemed to be, such a clean rhythm, giving people a very strong sense of emptiness.

No one sent him!

Perhaps, many people don't know that he is leaving today, after all, everyone is addicted to cultivation, busy with their own affairs, and does not have the time and leisure to care about others; of course, even if those people know that he is leaving, it is impossible to come to see him off during this time period, after all, he has only been in Iris for more than two months, and he has no friends.

Marti?

Martí Esmeralda and he have experienced some things, have a common secret, and have a tacit understanding with each other, speaking of which, she should be regarded as his friend, but, back in Reims City, nothing has changed, the two of them still never communicate in front of people as before, even if they meet in private, it is only a slight exchange of eyes, and they still pass by silently.

As for the other teammate, Milo Dravic, this one has nothing to show for Ryan Charr, however, that attitude of distancing has not changed, especially after Ryan has ventured with Marty several times, but he has been ostracized by his superiors and has not arranged him with them, and his resentment with Ryan has deepened, just like a child who has failed to compete for favor in front of his parents.

Therefore, even if he knew that Ryan was leaving the iris system, he would only be secretly happy in his heart, and he was straight-tempered, and he couldn't do the kind of hypocritical performance that he came to send back with affection.

As she reached the foyer, Tess stood up from behind her desk.

Sunlight shone in through the glass window, and a dazzling pillar of light pierced through the desk in front of Tess, slid forward on the table for some distance, and then fell under the table, looming.

Tess smiled, her smile as bright as the sunlight shining in from behind the window.

"Mr. Charles, I wish you a bright future and a smooth journey!"

Actually, Tess doesn't know the inside story, as a clerical and an insider of Iris, her parents used to work for Iris, she knows one thing very well, that is, she only knows what she should know, don't ask casually, don't gossip casually, out of that door, forget all the things in the door, and only think of herself as a clerk for an ordinary cleaning company.

For the transcendents, or the transcendents in the future, she always greeted them with a smile and did her best to serve them, because she knew that even if these people were polite to her, they all thought they were superior in their bones.

More than 1,000 years ago, these transcendent beings claimed to have the blood of God, an army of angels on earth of God.

At that time, the pope of the Templar called himself the shepherd of God, and the transcendent beings attached to the Templar were the shepherds, and the ordinary humans were the docile sheep, the shepherds and the sheepdogs protected the sheep from the beasts, and at the same time, the sheep gave their bodies to the shepherds and the sheepdogs, so that they could live according to their desires.

All along, the transcendent is a being from above.

Of course, the present is a little different from the past, and the world has changed dramatically over time.

In the past two or three hundred years, starting from York Newton, magic stone technology has developed rapidly, and various theoretical articles have emerged one after another, a hundred years ago, a certain guy who is even a taboo name once put forward a hypothesis, in that hypothesis, the transcendent is just a mutant among ordinary people, not more noble than ordinary people, but because their spiritual factors have survived for some reason and have been stimulated.

Essentially, they are no different from normal humans.

With the development of occult theories and the advancement of magic stone technology, the guy who even had a taboo name believed that in the near future, it was possible for all people to have extraordinary powers, at least, those ordinary people could also drive magic items and freely use the products made by magic stone technology, and at that time, the advantage of the transcendent over ordinary people would no longer prevail.

The reason why this guy has become taboo, although these deviant knowledge is also one of the reasons, however, it is not crucial, there is only one crucial factor, which comes from the fact that the guy came up with a theory.

That is, God does not exist!

Or maybe God is dead!

That's why his books, and even his name, are taboo.

Not only did the Templars call him the most evil blasphemer, but even all the countries of Noah's continent, including the British Empire on the Stardust Sea, regarded this guy as a dangerous person.

You see, the existence of God is the foundation of the world's rule over these families.

To deny the existence of God is to dig into this foundation of domination.

In fact, the reason why Watson Strong has such ambitions is also influenced by that unspeakable guy.

He had read a forbidden book.

This forbidden book belonged to his brother Charlotte Strong, Watson had only read it once, and when he wanted to read it seriously, he never saw it again, and he didn't know what Charlotte had done with it.

That book was the equivalent of buying a seed in Watson's heart.

Now, the seed is about to break through the ground.

Then again, even now that it is different from a thousand years ago, there is cooperation between the transcendent and the ordinary, there are many ordinary people like Tess in institutions and organizations like Iris, and even in the Templar, there are ordinary people who do not have the slightest supernatural power to ascend to the top and become one of the twelve elders, holding one of the zodiac houses.

However, there is still a barrier between the extraordinary and the ordinary.

Tess knows this very well.

However, her attitude towards Ryan Charles is different, because Ryan is a rare teenager who walks through this door alone, and at that time, Tess thought that he, like herself, was going to serve the transcendent.

So, her smile really comes from her heart.

She also really hopes that this young man can have a bright future and a smooth journey.

Ryan Charles sensed her kindness, put down his luggage, removed the top hat from his head, held it in front of his chest with his right hand, and bowed in salute, doing so with the same smile on his face.

"Miss Tess, I also wish you eternal youth, and all your wishes come true......"

Then, under Tess's gaze, he stepped out of the door and down the steps into the afternoon sun.

A carriage pulled up on the side of the street, and Ryan walked towards it, and the coachman bowed to him very respectfully, and then, opening the door on one side, waited quietly for him to get on.

Ryan stood in front of the door, feeling something, and looked back.

In a window on the second floor of the small building, a figure flickered, slowly leaving the window as he looked.
