Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 171

The black SUVs were already waiting outside for the FBI agents. Ryder, on the other hand, had booked a cab as well. He didn't go to his destination, though.
He had already known that the meeting was tomorrow, so he told the driver to take him to a hotel that was near his destination.
The FBI agents, on the other hand, went straight towards the Northeast Walter flyover. They had booked a room in a building nearby where they could keep an eye on the flyover.
The Northeast Walter Flyover was an abandoned flyover of the state that was not used anymore. No one used the flyover anymore, which made it easier for the Agents to see if something strange was going on there or not.
They entered the building they had rooms in. They had arranged for two rooms. One for the guys and one for the girls. Both of these rooms had a window that was facing towards their target.
"Captain worked fast. It feels like he found out everything about this place already. He arranged everything for us. All we need to do is keep an eye and rest. This will be like a vacation in a way if they don't show up," Jacob commented as he entered the room.
The room was fully furnished and had everything they could ever need.
"This is not a vacation. This is our duty. We need to be alert every moment. Think of it as the enemy can appear any second, and you will miss it if you laze around," Ray told Jacob.
"The girls are in different rooms. They will keep an eye on the target as well, but I understand that we can't slack off either. We can do it in turns. You watch for 2 hours, and then I'll keep an eye for 2 hours. We will get rest, and it will be more effective as well," Jacob suggested.

"We'll do it on a 4-hour schedule. 2 hours will be insufficient for someone to rest," Ray replied. Jacob agreed to that.
They played Rock-Paper-Scissors to decide who would go first. Ray was defeated, so he went to keep an eye. Even though he was the leader, this was not a difficult situation. He didn't want to command anyone unless the enemy actually appeared.

Ryder also arrived at a nearby place. He had found a hotel and booked a room there. As the nearest hotel he found was only a small hotel, even the most expensive room in the hotel was cheap. The room didn't have many things. There was only a bed and some furniture inside. There was a room service, though.
After checking the room out, Ryder left the hotel and walked towards the Northeast Walter Flyover.
It took him 20 minutes of walking to get there on foot.
He stayed away from that place initially and just checked things out to see if there was someone there or not.
The Northeast Walter Flyover was an abandoned Flyover that was made around fifty years ago. It was abandoned now for some reason, and a new Flyover was made some distance away from this place, which was used for transport.
After finding no one there, Ryder casually walked closer to the place, pretending to be casually looking around.
"Someone is approaching!" Ray told Jacob as he saw Ryder walking closer to the flyover.
Jacob walked towards Ray and took the second set of binoculars to see.
"Do you think he will be from that mysterious organization? He doesn't look like a bad guy," Jacob responded.
"Do you think bad guys have a board hung on their neck, which says that they are a bad guy?" Ray let out as he rolled his eyes.

Riya was in a different room watching Ryder as well.
"If the captain was right about this place, we might catch them. I see someone approaching our target. It might be a recon mission from that organization. If they are doing that, the meeting should be soon," Riya let out as she kept her focus on Ryder.
"I remember seeing that guy at the airport. It's strange, indeed. Should I trail him?" Milana asked Riya.
She wanted to take a second opinion.
"The guys must have seen him as well. Let's go discuss with them," she added as she lowered her binoculars.
Riya and Milana left their room and entered the rooms of Ray and Jacob.
"Did you notice that guy as well?" Riya inquired as she entered the room. She saw Ray and Jacob looking out the window.
"Yeah. That man is suspicious. Let me discuss it with the Captain. Jacob, you keep an eye on him," Ray let out as he walked back and brought his phone out.
He called the Captain and told him what was happening here.
"No, don't do anything to that guy. I don't want him to get suspicious. We would lose the big fishes if we go after the small fishes," The Captain answered. "Just stay alert. The next few days are going to be the most crucial for us. I'll alert the authorities to stay ready to roll out."
"Understood," Ray nodded his head before he disconnected the call.
"Don't do anything. The captain told us to stay put. We can't spoil everything. This might be our best chance to catch them all," Ray explained to everyone else.
They all agreed. They just kept watching over Ryder to see what he was doing.
Ryder, on the other hand, was still casually walking. He didn't stop by the Flyover thought and continued walking as he walked past it.
"He didn't stop there. Were we wrong?" Milana inquired as she looked back.
"No, He was being careful. Everything will become clear soon," Riya answered.
Ryder continued walking and went to the supermarket that was ahead.
He purchased something to eat and walked back on the same path.
"He's coming back with groceries. I guess we were just too worked up," Milana shook her head as she saw Ryder going back with a grocery bag in his hand after an hour.
Riya still had a suspicious look on her face.
Ryder walked back to the hotel and placed the bag on the bed.
"The entrance was there. I guess there's an underground passage where the meeting takes place. I should've expected that. I don't know why I thought that they would actually have it under the flyover in the open," Ryder shook his head as he brought out an apple from the bag and started eating it.
"The real fun will begin tomorrow. I hope I will be able to get some answers," Ryder muttered as he looked towards the window.

Demon Blade
Ryuken is your average 15-year old high schooler, living his life in an ordinary way, until he comes across a mysterious katana and is pulled into the world of unbelievable supernatural.An anime-inspired passion project of mine, sparked from my childhood love of shounen anime. I have big plans for this world but we'll see if I get to stick around long enough to finish it.Enjoy! Notes: 1. My writing style is mostly script-like with some 3rd person-ish narrative sprinkled in, and it is VERY dialogue-heavy. 2. It can be pretty slow, as I tend to focus more on characters rather than action. 3. Since the story is set in Japan with Japanese characters, I will be using Japanese honorifics whenever the characters are interacting with each other. To learn more about Japanese Honorifics, you can go to this website here. I apologize if I used them wrongly, or if I forgot to use them from time to time, or if it turns you off. 4. I don't have a fixed release schedule as I don't have time to write regularly at the moment. I may update tomorrow or next year. Who knows. I'm like your dad who's gone to the store for some milk. I'll be back. Cover Source
