Legendary God of Harem In the Modern World

Chapter 54: Superhero Landing

The next day, Ryan and Irina went to the office together.

The man planned to rebuild the room. Having previously been destroyed by the Dead Man Inc gang, Ryan only had the opportunity to rebuild today, but this time he wanted to move it on another floor.

Despite the possibility that the enemy had figured out Ryan's plan to make potion X in this company, the Avalerion company was still the best place to build his laboratory. And this time he intended to make it somewhere less flashy.

For him, the place for the development of potion X was very important. Though his grandfather had assisted him in holding back his mysterious power, it only lasted for 1 month. If there was no place for him to produce potion X, his title as the god of war Nergal would turn into a myth. His strength would be greatly reduced, making him an easy prey.

Irina herself was calmer than yesterday, and Ryan was relieved to see her this way. After saying goodbye, Ryan wanted to check his perfumers' work first.

"Morning all." Ryan greeted all his subordinates and saw Valerie in the corner. He then walked towards her direction and approached her.

Valerie shifted her focus and finally turned her head upon Ryan's figure. She immediately thought about yesterday's incident and blushed. She lowered her head and answered Ryan's greetings in a low voice then left there.

Seeing the indifferent Valerie, Ryan frowned, 'What's wrong with her?'

Putting that aside, Ryan started directing his team first.

After answering some questions from Kelvin and his other subordinates, Ryan left the room. He then decided to observe the entire building.

This 9th floor was no longer suitable for him, so he had to find another room. He started checking from the 2nd floor.

Each floor on this building had its own function. The 5th floor for example, since this place was devoted to perfume research, there were fewer rooms and more people on this floor. There were not as many empty rooms as the 9th floor.

While walking around on the 5th floor, he found an empty room that suited his needs.

This room was previously used for storage but since the perfume making department moved to the 9th floor, it was no longer used.

Ryan then observed this room carefully.

'Great!'

Since the 5th floor also had a lot of researchers, creating a laboratory on this floor shouldn't be too flashy!

After making up his mind, he immediately summoned several people to clean this room. He had to obtain permission from Irina first and made sure that the woman agreed, but he thought that it wasn't important as the room was also unused.

It took two hours to clean and move the equipment needed to this new room.

After that, Ryan restarted his research and development of potion X.

During this time, Valerie worked hard in helping Ryan. She did whatever was assigned but, she didn't speak a single word throughout the entire process.

"Valerie, take that tool and clean it."

"Valerie, please take the notes from upstairs."

"Valerie, please mix the liquid."

"Valerie ...."

Ryan felt that Valerie's coldness might be due to last night's incident. Therefore, he called Valerie continuously to look for opportunities to make up. But from start to finish, Valerie didn't speak at all, and she just nodded her head.

... ..

After working two full hours, Ryan was getting tired. Seeing that Valerie had no progress, he had a plan. "Valerie, can I ask you a favor? Please buy a drink for me, but don't buy it in this cafeteria. There's nothing fresh in there, just buy it outside and find me ice."

Ryan's request was strange enough but Valerie didn't refuse and walked out of the room.

'Still cold?' Ryan shook his head at the thought. Last night they just kissed intimately, but why had Valerie's attitude today changed so drastically?

Then he thought to himself that it would be better today to make out with Irina.

Ryan then returned to work while waiting for Valerie to return.

A few minutes later, he heard a scream from outside the building while he was busy explaining.

"Please, help me! Ryan please!"

'Valerie? Valerie!'

With his super hearing, he knew that it was Valerie's scream. Ryan rushed to the window and focused back on his ears. However, her voice suddenly disappeared. Was he hallucinating because he was tired?

But how come Nergal hallucinating? He wasn't a single man imagining a girlfriendhe was one of the 12 Aesirs. With all respects, his hearing had already reached the highest realm.

This time Valerie's voice was heard again, "Help, help me! Ryan please!"

'Valerie!'

He was now sure that it was Valerie's voice!

Ryan then opened his eyes and looked down. He saw Valerie being held by several people wearing masks and tried to get her into the car.

'Kidnapping!'

The man instantly frowned when he saw the ring of the Dark Hound in their fingers. Did they come from Mafia Dell'inferno?

His wrath began to flame. Since they couldn't hurt him, did they resort to Ryan's innocent subordinates? This made him really angry.

If Nergal was angry, death would follow his every step!

At this time, Valerie had been brought into the car and they were about to leave.

"Valerie!"

With that loud scream, everyone stared at Ryan who was standing above the window. He was on the 5th floor, so if he jumped recklessly he would only get hurt. He then noticed that there was a large trash can below.

One of the kidnappers noticed Ryan's figure on the 5th floor. He taunted him by giving him the middle finger and got in the car.

Without any hesitation, Ryan jumped down!

"Sir!"

Everyone in the room was shocked to see him. What was wrong? Had their leader gone mad?

Ryan fell at high speed. Previously, he had circulated his profound energy throughout his body and adjusted the angle of his body in midair.

The pedestrians who had heard Ryan's scream earlier had noticed that someone had jumped up from the floor above. Soon there was an uproar.

"Someone committed suicide!"

A hotdog seller pointed at Ryan and all his customers saw him immediately. People there reacted differently.

"Quickly call an ambulance or the police!"

"He fell so fast!"

"Where's my cellphone! It will definitely go viral!"

But they all had one voice It was almost impossible to save anyone that jumped from that height. It was almost definitely over, even calling a superhero would be too late. They naturally thought like that because Ryan's falling speed was really fast.

However, Ryan had already estimated the direction of the fall and prepared his inner strength while still in mid-air. When he was 50 meters away from the ground, he gathered his internal strength in his legs and he fell down with his feet facing the ground. He was doing what people call 'superhero landing.'

BANG!

The crashing sound was very loud. The trash can could not hold back Ryan who fell at high speed. It was completely mangled and shapeless.

Seeing that the person had fallen, the pedestrians clenched their hearts and came over to see the dead corpse. However, they did not expect that they would be disappointed. Instead of seeing a corpse with scattered organs, they saw Ryan rise from the trash can.

"Damn that guy's still alive!" The person who recorded this incident couldn't even believe what he saw.

That person was still alive!

Ryan didn't care about people surrounding him and focused on finding the kidnapper's car. After confirming the car's direction, he started running and disappeared from the crowd.

From above, Ryan's subordinates finally breathed a sigh of relief and still couldn't believe that Ryan had actually survived the jumping incident. Their hearts were still beating fast when they thought about it.

Jumping from the floor this high and sprinted up from the ground as if nothing had happened.

....

'Is he still human?' Actually, they didn't want to discuss it but the question crossed their minds.

Could a normal person jump from the 5th floor and not die? It sounded impossible. If anything, only Nokia cellphones could survive that.

Ryan didn't know that he had become the topic of public discussion and continued following the car that kidnapped Valerie!

His eyes never left the kidnappers' car. At this time, the car was already going fast and the distance between them was quite far.

Ryan regained his inner strength into his feet, even faintly heard a hissing sound from his shoes. In a moment, he was catching up with incredible speed.

When he returned to the mountain, his grandfather had given him medicine so that he could use his internal power without worrying about the mysterious power in his body for a month. With this, he didn't have to hold back anymore.

The pedestrians who saw Ryan jump were shocked again. It'd been a miracle that the man jumped from the 5th floor and survived, and now he ran that fast?
