When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone on the top of the Iron Fist Castle, Ryan slowly opened his eyes. He first looked at Vivian, who was curled up in his arms. His heart was filled with sweetness. The woman in front of him , finally completely belongs to myself, that feeling is enough to make Ryan intoxicated,
Looking at Vivian who was still sleeping, Ryan kissed her forehead gently, then slowly pulled out his arm from under Vivian's body, then walked off the wooden bed and slowly put on clothes, even though he struggled hard last night Conquest, but Ryan's habit of getting up early over the years still made him wake up as soon as the sun rose.
Slowly pushing the bathroom door open, letting the early morning sunshine sneak into the room playfully, Ryan turned his head and smiled at Vivian, who continued to sleep soundly, and left briskly. As soon as Ryan left, Vivian's Several maids walked into the bathroom with their heads lowered and their faces red. They all looked haggard and had probably been standing outside the bathroom all night. Fortunately it was summer, otherwise these maids would have suffered a lot.
Ryan already felt that he had gotten up early enough, but he did not expect that when he stepped into the practice venue, someone else arrived earlier than him. Ryan seemed to have guessed this, so he said loudly: "Teacher Ghalib, you It’s still the same as before.”
Ghalib did not stop his activities. He stretched his limbs slowly and said in a teasing tone: "Not bad, Ryan. I thought you wouldn't come today. I didn't expect you to work hard all night. And the energy, well, that’s a surprise.”
Ryan's face flushed, and he stood there and said coquettishly: "I hate it, teacher, you actually eavesdropped on others..."
Ghalib laughed loudly and changed the topic. After he laughed, he said to Ryan: "I mean Ryan, it has been many years since you left Dense Fog Town. I wonder what your current strength is like. I remember that every time you practiced with me before, you couldn't stand a few blows from me."
Ryan proudly said to Ghalib: "Teacher, even if you are a legendary strongman, I can probably give it a try."
Ghalib smiled faintly and said to Ryan: "Great, let me see your 'fight hard'."
When Ghalib said "fight hard", his tone was much more serious. Obviously he didn't believe what Ryan said. This made Ryan very competitive. After all, when Ryan was a child, he always thought of defeating Ghalib. As he strives for his own goals, he has now experienced countless adventures, and has greatly improved his strength during this journey, which also gave Ryan a certain degree of confidence.
"Teacher Jialib, be careful." Ryan was full of pride. He took a deep breath and his whole body became hazy. Then Ryan took a step forward, but as soon as he stretched out his feet, his whole figure immediately split. Seven or eight people came out, and by the time Ryan's foot landed, a total of nine Ryans had surrounded Calibu.
Fireballs, lightning, ice arrows, missiles... Ryan and his mirror images tilted the magic denser than the storm onto Galib's head without any worries. At the same time, Ryan also focused on letting several mirror images work together to release a magic circle. , prepare to attack Galib with more powerful magic,
Almost all of Ryan's actions were completed in just one breath. Looking at his full blow, Ryan could be said to be complacent, because even if Victor or Catherine were here, I'm afraid they would have to avoid it first and then wait for an opportunity. He fought back, but unexpectedly, the smile on Ryan's mouth had solidified before he showed it. His body suddenly froze in place, and those mirror images also dissipated in the air.
What caused all this was a hand. To be precise, it was a big hand that was gently placed on Ryan's throat. The owner of the big hand was naturally Ryan's martial arts teacher Jialibu. Ryan looked at his teacher in disbelief. , he really couldn't imagine how Galib could break through the layers of magic attacks laid by himself and directly seize the main body. Obviously, if Ryan's previous enemies could have this ability, then Ryan would not be alive now.
"It's too scary." Allendo's voice sounded from the side. As soon as he stepped in here, he saw a shocking scene.
"Actually, the truth is very simple." After Galib said this lightly, his big hand on Ryan's throat immediately moved to Ryan's shoulder, and gently brushed Ryan's collar a few times, as if he had just That action was just like brushing away the dust for Ryan. Ryan stood there blankly, thinking hard about how Jialib did this just now.
After a long time, Ryan still couldn't figure out how his teacher Ghalib did it, so he raised his head and said to Ghalib who was standing aside: "Teacher, how did you do it? I have obviously blocked it." Cover all your offensive lines."
Jia Libu stretched out a finger, shook it gently in the air, and then explained: "Actually, you don't."
"Ah, what's going on?" Ryan seemed to be back when he was young again. He stood respectfully in front of Jialib and listened carefully as Jalibu cleared up his doubts.
"Ryan, do you still remember the time I took you to kill the Earth Bear?"
"Of course, I believe I will never forget it in my life." Ryan quickly replied: "Strong enough, with flexible and skillful use, it can hit the enemy's vital points."
"Very good, it seems you have a good memory." Ghalib smiled and said to Ryan: "What is a powerful enough force, and how to use it flexibly and skillfully."
"This..." Ryan hesitated and did not answer immediately because this question involved too many aspects.
"An example, Ryan." Ghalib explained to Ryan and Alando: "Under normal circumstances, the power of a magic apprentice is definitely not as good as that of a senior magician, and the power of a senior magician is definitely not as good as A great magister, why can we be so sure, because the latter has more power than the former."
"For example, a void protection is enough to make most low-level magicians helpless." This example given by Jialib made Ryan understand deeply. He nodded vigorously and continued to listen to Jialib: "This It's just a gap in strength, which cannot be made up by skills. Just now you thought you had blocked all my attack routes with magic, but the actual situation is definitely not like this. It's like you are climbing a mountain, and it looks like you are surrounded by There seems to be no way to go, but when you finally climb to the top of the mountain, you find that the road just now leads in all directions, but you can't see it from your original position."
"So, teacher, you have really taken that step." Ryan asked Ghalib with a little expectation,
Ghalib laughed, but did not answer Ryan's question. He patted Ryan's shoulder again and said to Ryan: "Many things cannot be described in words, but when you get to that point, you will naturally understand. , this is like the 'time stop' magic. If you don't have the strength, you can't imagine what it will be like after the flow of time is stopped by powerful magic. You can't understand how the 'gate of time and space' can stop the flow of time. A person is teleported directly to another place far away."
After Ghalib finished explaining, he looked at Ryan's expectant eyes and said earnestly: "Lian, you want to improve your strength. This is right, but you must remember that you can't force anything. In order to change, Trying to get stronger will only make you lost in the journey.”
"I understand, thank you teacher for your teaching." Ryan solemnly saluted Galib, and Allendo also saluted Galib to thank Galib for his advice. , Jialib’s words just now can be considered as a kind of awakening from the people standing on the top of the mountain to those who are still climbing. As for how much they can understand, it all depends on the climbers themselves.
"Oh, by the way, Ryan, you probably made a lot of enemies after you came out." Ghalib suddenly asked this question,
Ryan thought for a while and said: "There are quite a few, like Senat, the killer organization behind the orcs, Clay tribe, Sophie... There are many more that I don't understand myself. Why are you asking this question, teacher?"
"Haha, it's nothing actually. When I was in your hometown, a lot of people came to your door. At first, these people didn't have any malicious intentions. They seemed to just investigate your experience. But after a while, there were more people. A lot of people came to Dense Fog Town to inquire about you, and I once eavesdropped on their conversations, as if they planned to kidnap your parents."
"Ah." Ryan was shocked when he heard this. Although he knew that his parents were in the Iron Fist Castle now, he still asked with concern: "What happened later, were my parents frightened?"
"Do you think I can just stand by and watch?" Ghalib said proudly: "Except for the group of guys from the imperial capital who came to protect your parents, everyone else has been taken care of by me. As for your parents, they will probably never None of them would know these things.”
"Then I really have to thank you, teacher." Ryan was relieved and said to Ghalib with lingering fear,
Jialib smiled slightly and said: "That's okay. Let's not talk about the teacher-student relationship between you and me. Just considering that I have been taken care of by everyone in Dense Fog Town for so many years, I should also do more things, um, Since Ryan, you have a lot of things to do now, and I have nowhere to go anyway, why not just hang out here and wait to die."
After listening to Jialib's words, Ryan was filled with gratitude. Of course he knew that Jialib's so-called "eating and waiting to die" was just a lame excuse. Maybe Jialib would still stay in the concentration camp after he left his hometown. Wu Zhen spent so many years just to protect his parents. Thinking that he was just an ordinary descendant of Orion, but could be so valued by a strong man like Jialib, he really didn't know what to say. ,
Ghalib seemed to have guessed Ryan's inner turmoil. He patted Ryan's shoulder again and said loudly: "Actually, I really found something to kill time because I was bored. As for when I started teaching you martial arts, I didn't It's because I saw the perseverance in your eyes. I originally thought it would be nice to teach you some self-defense martial arts, but I never expected that guy Delanai would actually think of his own childhood experiences because of your perseverance. As a result, what happened next You know everything yourself, so if you want to thank me, you should thank Delanai more."
