234 Second Meeting
This is the second time Ryan has met Albert since entering Iris.
Even if he experienced the Huo Village incident, even if there were so many puzzling things happening, even if the Leslie family's housekeeper came to visit, Albert didn't summon Ryan immediately.
Ryan knew it was a matter of time, though.
A lot of things don't stand up to scrutiny.
Especially because of the existence of the Golden Book, he remembered many things of the real Ryan Charles a long time ago, just like the archives hidden in the library, as long as needed, he could call up from the catalog at any time, and those messages combined with Ryan's experience some time ago, he also understood that he should have an extraordinary background, and his strange father should be a big man.
For this father, the real Ryan is resentful.
After all, not long after he was born, that guy disappeared and did not appear in his life, but his mother did not have much resentment towards his father, and some were nostalgic, in his mother's words, his father was a gentle person, but he couldn't help but go far away, and sooner or later he would come back to visit.
Yes, compared to others, his father is also dutiful, at least, in terms of money.
His mother was just an ordinary factory worker, and the Bell family was able to escape that quagmire and leave the lowest level of life, thanks to his strange father.
And now, as Mother said, Father is back?
It's time for a showdown!
For this person, Ryan, who has Gu Chaoyang's memory, has no emotions now, it is meaningless to cling to similar emotions, people are helpless, they can only drift with the tide in the whirlpool of fate, rising and falling, when you don't have the power to transcend the rules of reality, you can only do so.
When you're in a slump, there's no need to complain.
Complaining about the unfairness of fate and complaining that others treat you badly is nothing but the wailing of the defeated dog of the weak!
You just need to understand one thing, that is, as long as you are strong inside, you will not complain about anyone anymore!
Of course, for the current Ryan, he can only maintain his inner strength and steadfastness in his spiritual will, and there is not much he can have.
Even with the help of the Golden Book, even if he is soaring on the path of transcendence, cultivating at a speed far beyond others, and improving his strength. However, relatively speaking, compared to others, his strength is still not enough, even in the Iris Lance Branch, there are several guys who can easily kill him.
The old man in front of him, who looked old, was about to throw himself into the arms of God, and he was one of them.
As long as he is in this small building, he is invincible compared to the current Ryan, and as long as he wants, the magic circle of the entire building can be used by him.
After all, he was the only controller of the circle here.
Even Lord Fontaine, as the head of the Iris Orchids Branch, was not qualified to control the protective circle of this small building.
Unless the old man dies, no one wants to take control out of his hands.
When Ryan Charles entered the office, the old man was talking to someone, at that time, the office door was open, Ryan walked to the door, and was about to reach out and gently knock on the open door, and saw that the old man was on the phone, so he stopped, did not speak, did not knock on the door, did not want to disturb the other party.
Of course, Albert also saw Ryan.
He looked at Ryan standing in the doorway, still talking to someone with the phone in one hand, and raised his other hand and beckoned Ryan to let him in.
After Ryan entered, Albert said a few words before putting down the microphone.
These two sentences, Ryan Charles heard clearly.
"Yes, give up this operation, leave it to that one and the police, just leave one person aside to record, it doesn't matter how the truth of the matter is......"
The first time, Ryan understood.
This is supposed to be Albert Estan talking to Livingston, just like he stopped Milton's lead operation earlier, Iris gave up his position on this matter, anyway, it was some gangsters who died, as long as it did not cause a large number of casualties among the poor and caused a drastic impact, Iris could stand by and watch.
It's dog eat dog.
After Van Gaal Philippe called Albert Estein to communicate, Albert immediately came to a conclusion, and was convinced of it.
It was nothing more than the entry of the feud Philippe family into Reims City, which was a provocation for the Alfonso family, and as a result, they had a plan to humiliate Van Gaal Philippe.
However, Van Gaal Philippe, as the heir to the Duke of Orleans, is not to be underestimated, and he is a dragon after all.
There are no three-thirds, don't dare to go to Liangshan!
This sentence naturally does not exist in this world, but there is a similar saying.
Albert Estein was not from an aristocratic background, he was a lucky fellow, he was very young and was favored by his master who was in the fleur-de-lis, so his talent was not wasted, and the journey was smooth, and most of his companions, like Marti's parents, lost their lives, or lost themselves, and only he, in the end, became the branch head of the Iris Lance branch.
Even if you suffer a major setback, you can survive.
Even if he is self-imprisoned here, he is undoubtedly a lucky one compared to his dead or lost companions.
Because of his origin, in the heart of Albert Estein, he was not interested in aristocrats, and he was also dissatisfied with people like Lord Fontaine, who were born in ordinary families, but wanted to enter the aristocratic class, thinking that they had betrayed their own class, of course, these thoughts were all hidden in his heart and never told anyone.
However, in his code of conduct, there are tendencies.
During his tenure at the Iris Orchids Branch, on the surface, he treated everyone equally, however, he often only valued those who had no background in commoners, such as Livingston, and Leonard, who was transferred to the imperial capital to study.
In fact, Leonard is his preferred successor.
These transcendents led by him were called localists by the Imperial Capital Headquarters, a hillbilly alliance from other provinces, but those people didn't really know what he really thought in his heart.
As a result, he also has the support of the Southern Seven Eyes Alliance.
Originally, in Albert's plan, with his support, as long as Leonard could become a third-order transcendent and open up a third energy space in the void world, at that time, he could hide behind the scenes and let Leonard become the branch head of the Iris Lance branch.
It's just that plans often don't change as quickly.
Just before Leonard was stuck on the threshold of the third order, an accident caused Albert to receive a heavy blow and barely save his life, but he could only self-imprison in this small building.
Those Yankees reacted very quickly, and took this opportunity to parachute Lord Fontaine and transfer Leonard to the headquarters for training, so that Albert's line was also suppressed, and he had no choice but to choose to hibernate and choose to train the follow-up forces.
That's why he thinks so highly of Ryan Charles.
Because his background is very similar to Ryan Charr's, he is also from a single family background, raised by his mother, and luckier than Ryan, his mother has always been healthy, and there is no vampire uncle like Jordan Bell, and when he was born, his mother also enjoyed a few days of good life.
That's why he asked Livingston to give Ryan the holy book that left his spiritual imprint, instead of giving it to the other trainee agent, a guy from a small aristocratic background, who was bent on reviving his family and restoring it to its former glory.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with his vision.
Ryan Shire, this little guy is indeed talented, and in such a short period of time, he has done such things, not those flowers in the greenhouse, who can only survive in the care of big people.
That's why he stood by and let Lord Fontaine transfer Ryan and them out.
Knowing that the guy may have some ideas, he still does so, of course, he is not really standing by and ignoring it, but has an arrangement, so the person who leads the team is Siakam, who also belongs to the local faction.
"First order?"
Albert glanced at Ryan in a flat tone.
In fact, he had already received the report, but when he really looked at Ryan, there was still a shock in his heart, this talent, this luck, even him, was far from comparable.
"Yes, sir!"
Ryan nodded.
"Two months, right?"
Albert smiled and continued.
"In two months, you have become extraordinary, even in the history of irises, similar situations are extremely rare, especially two months ago, you knew nothing about this world!"
In the face of Albert's admiration, Ryan could only smile shyly.
"Young man, don't be proud!"
Albert let out a long sigh.
"On the road of transcendence, going early and going fast is nothing, it is not worthy of envy, and what people can envy can only be those who go farthest, go the highest, and go the longest...... Therefore, you should not be proud, you must guard against arrogance and rashness, and in the future, work hard to the end, knowing that there is no way out!"
Ryan took a deep breath and nodded vigorously.
"I know, sir!"
It's a pity!
Albert sighed inwardly.
Now that he knows that Ryan Charles has the blood of the Leslie family in his body, and that the old guy from Duke Swan Castle has not given up on him, he can only choose to let go.
He couldn't be sure of Ryan's thoughts, he couldn't dictate his choices.
So, for the sake of this little guy, it's not worth it to turn against the old guy.
"You get out......"
Albert waved his hand, and suddenly, he was in a state of flux.
"Goodbye, sir!"
Ryan knew in his heart, and did not pretend, but solemnly bowed to Albert Estan, and then, taking two steps backwards, before turning to leave.
