The Light of Beauty

The next day.

Ryan invited his good friend John to the only park in the town.

It has a large area and retains very original ecological forests, hills and rivers. The other end of it is connected to the vast mountains. The only place for construction is the entrance and the standing sign on the edge.

Ryan drove the car directly to an open area on the top of the mountain, where he could not only overlook the whole town, but also the ruins of the Alamo Fortress not far away.

The Battle of the Alamo was a Texan pain and pride.

According to the records of the sub-bureau that no longer exists, there have been many supernatural events in the Alamo Fortress without interruption, which is the direct reason for the establishment of the sub-bureau decades ago.

However, with the advent of the new century, the ghosts of the Alamo Fortress gradually disappeared, which became the main basis for the headquarters to abolish the branch.

The morning light pierces through the clouds, and the golden light shines on the earth.

On the top of the mountain, Ryan took off his clothes directly after getting off the car, and lay down on the green grass with morning dew.

Next to him, John spread out a cushion, and poured out two full boxes of food. After sitting down, he unscrewed a large bottle of iced Coke contentedly, and handed it to Ryan first.

Ryan shook his head: "I'm not thirsty yet, drink it yourself."

John also shook his head: "Drinking it is never to quench your thirst, but to be happy."

Ryan watched him drink half a bottle in one gulp, and couldn't help laughing: "Is this the simplest happiness in your life?"

"Of course." John burped contentedly, and then began to work on the pile of snacks in front of him.

Ryan didn't talk anymore, and John didn't pull him to chat.

This was the most common way the two got along in the past. In the past, Ryan didn't like to talk, and John was too lazy to move, talk, or think.So the pair of friends can spend a whole day together quietly, which is one of the reasons why Ryan is willing to continue to be friends with him.

For a moment, John, who was full and full, imitated Ryan's appearance and lay on the grass. After a while, he started snoring.

noon.

John hid his huge body under the shade of the tree, but his body still couldn't stop sweating, so he held the hamburger in one hand and the iced Coke in the other and kept rubbing it on his face.

Ryan, on the other hand, turned a blind eye to the scorching sun. He took off only a pair of big underpants, and lay in a large shape on the lawn to receive the baptism of the sun.

Light energy exists and manifests in many forms, but so far, basking in the sun is the only way of lifting that Ryan has discovered and verified without worrying about side effects after absorption.

He is incomparable with Superman, the efficiency of absorption and transformation is very low, but it is better to make progress than stand still.

About a month ago, he completed the time travel and merged with the original Ryan's soul. After that, he discovered the awakening of his ability. Since then, the strength of this ability has continued to grow naturally.

However, Lane doesn't like to be passive.

Therefore, even at the current position, he still hasn't found any sign that the natural growth of abilities is going to stop, but he is also very clear that this trend cannot continue indefinitely and endlessly.Moreover, the progress of passive growth is really slow, not to mention comparable to those mutants who just wake up in the morning and go straight to the sky at night, even the muscular buttocks who get injections can't compare.

Therefore, he chose to bask in the sun every day, which can probably be regarded as a kind of "active cultivation".

In this world, we can talk about physics, but we can't be superstitious about physics, especially human physics.So there are only two types of energy in Ryan's eyes: safe and dangerous.

The sun itself is dangerous, but exposure to natural sunlight on Earth is safe.

Natural growth is a slow but steady way of improvement, but one does not know when it will disappear.

Basking in the sun is a low-efficiency enhancement method that can last for a long time.

When his abilities are improved and enhanced, the efficiency of natural growth and energy absorption will also increase.

It's a strategy that starts slowly but is complementary and highly sustainable.

Ryan does not lack the spirit of Yugong Yishan and perseverance. As long as he can make progress, it is not a waste of time.

The Suns will be his favorite until a better way is found.

John looked at Ryan bathed in the scorching sun, not only did he not feel hot, but rather enjoyed it, his small eyes showed envy.

He said sincerely, "Ryan, you are really special."

Ryan closed his eyes and replied, "John, everyone has their own special features."

"Hehe, I know, I can eat very much." He said, and he swallowed another hamburger.

"It's not all bad to be able to eat it. When you need it someday in the future, you'll thank yourself for storing energy in the past."

"Really, then I am really looking forward to that day."

In the evening, Ryan sat up and found that John had fallen asleep against the big tree again.

He got up and dressed, drove down the mountain to buy beer, and when he came back, John was already awake, but there was nothing strange or panic about Ryan's sudden disappearance in his expression.

"I'm home."

"Well, I bought some beer."

Sitting back again, the two talked while drinking.

John watched Ryan drink a whole can of beer without changing his face, and couldn't help asking: "To be honest, Ryan, have you always pretended to be drunk?"

Ryan nodded: "Yes, I didn't like drinking at that time, so if I pretended to be drunk, I could avoid continuing to drink."

"Then now, why do you suddenly like drinking?"

"I don't drink because I don't like being drunk... you know, it's hard, I hate the feeling of losing control of my body. It gets better when I'm drunk, so it's not bad to drink a little now and then."

John understood, "The more you drink, the less likely you are to get drunk. But I'm different from you. I enjoy the softness of every step I take, as if stepping into cotton."

Soon, they each picked up the last can.

Ryan opened the can and said suddenly, "John, I'm leaving tomorrow."

He thought that John would be surprised when he heard this sentence, but he didn't expect that the other party was still as plain as ever.

"I guessed it, you are different from us, you grew up in other places, if it weren't for work, you wouldn't come here. Well, according to me, although the salary and benefits of S.H.I.E.L.D. are not bad, you can earn money when you go out More, so you should have been out and about more."

Ryan didn't understand him very well: "John, don't you want to go out? If you want, I can take you with me directly. Believe me, no one will refuse, and we can continue to be colleagues."

Hearing this, John's chubby face suddenly wrinkled into dough with a smile. He touched the beer can with Ryan, and then smiled and said, "Haha, of course I want to too! But I just want to travel. If it's life , I always think this is the most suitable place for me.”

Ryan nodded, which fit John's character well.

After the two drank their toasts, John squeezed the empty beer cans into a ball and said: "Lian, don't worry, we can call or video online at any time, don't worry about the signal problem, I will send you one later I made my own satellite phone, so you don’t have to worry about phone bills and signal problems anymore.”

John is a computer and communication technology expert.Ryan didn't know how powerful he was, after all, Ryan couldn't understand the things he did.

"Okay, maybe in the future I will often need your help."

John patted his chest: "No problem, you are my best friend, I can give you everything except my body."

Ryan looked at him with a smile and said, "If I want your body, I guess...you can't resist."

John laughed and cursed.

Night falls.

Ryan sent John back first, and got a satellite phone made by the other party himself, a black phone with a very fake appearance.

On Earth, the importance of computer and communication technology is self-evident, especially for an agent.

Ryan wasn't joking either, he really thought he would definitely need John's help.

It seems that nothing has been done on this day, but if we can continue to stabilize this friendship, it is considered to have achieved our goal.

After Ryan went home to wash up, he went to the roof to bathe in the moonlight.

The town under the night sky is very quiet.

New Friendship Town is a small town, with a total population of no more than [-] residents, and it has only been in development for more than ten years.

Reid Varner and others who belonged to SHIELD were the first residents and pioneers of this small town, and most of the new residents later were their relatives, friends and even descendants.

Probably because of this, Red knew everyone and knew that everyone would not want to leave here even if they lost their jobs.

Reid has the highest level 7 clearance in the branch, which is "Secret Clearance Access", so he knows more than ordinary agents.After the town is separated from the station of the S.H.I.E.L.D. branch, the ability to deal with the changes and impacts of the future world will be seriously insufficient, so Red will continue to unite everyone instead of letting the branch be withdrawn and everyone will become a mess.

Ryan was not worried about Reid's means. If he had no ability, he would not be able to sit in the position of director for more than ten years.

In fact, no matter in his previous life or now, Ryan is a very patient person.

Originally, he just wanted to slowly bask in the sun in this small town, not to mention becoming a superman, at least until he could fly, before making any further plans.

But plans don't always keep up with changes.

If so, no plans.

If I don't even have a plan, how can anyone else sabotage my plan?

Well, it's very beaver.

The next day, the sky was still hazy, and the dawn had not yet arrived.

Ryan got up early in the morning. Before everyone in the town got up, he drove to the nearest airport with his little luggage and the heavy transfer order.

The old car passed through the exit of the town, and the dead leaves swirled up and down again.

When the rear of the car completely disappeared at the end of the road, every corner of the town seemed to sigh slightly at the same time.
