Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 178: The Uprising

"What’s that indirect link?" Riya asked Ray as she sat down on a chair nearby. She was kept out of the loop on this one, but she understood the protocol.

Jacob sat on the bed beside Ray while Milana also sat on a chair.

"You remember that person we caught? We had received two clues from him. He didn’t know anything other than that. First clue was the major clue, which was the information about the meeting place and the sketches of a few of their men. The first lead is dead already after what happened. The second lead is Jameson, which we are going to investigate."

"That person gave us a few sketches of people. After scanning the system with that data related to the men’s sketch, we found one photo belonging to one of them,"

"In that photo, the suspect is shown to be standing beside Jameson, who is at what seemed like a club. That’s why I said that it’s an indirect link. It’s possible for Jameson to know that man, but it can be a coincidence that he met and talked to a stranger at a club. That is what he will claim even if he is related to that organization. The picture that we found is not enough to arrest Jameson either. We will be going to his house to interrogate him about this and get his testimony," Ray let out.

"What’s the benefit in that? As you claim, he will just lie about that to us. We can still do it in an illegal way. Kidnap him and force him to answer. You just need to get Captain’s permission," Jacob suggested.

"We can’t do that with Jameson. I already talked about all the possible things that we can do with Captain, and going directly to interrogate is the solution we came up with," Ray replied.

"I get it. So you want to bait him? Did the captain already get permission to tap his phone?" Riya asked, seemingly understanding the situation.

"Yes. With what happened in Washington, this mysterious organization is raised in threat level to Alpha. It was pretty easy to get the permission even at such a distant link. The higher-ups are worried as well. They will do anything to capture this Mysterious Organization, which we named BTerror," Ray declared.

"BTerror? Was that the best they could come up with?" Jacob let out with a wry smile on his face.

"It’s the short form of Bio-Enhanced Terror Group," Ray explained.

"Anyway, let me explain the plan in clear terms. We will go to his house to interrogate him about this link, while we will begin tapping his calls. If he is actually involved in this, there is over a ninety percent chance that he will call someone, and we will get our answers and another lead," Ray let out as he opened his laptop again.

He opened the image of Jameson from the report and showed everyone.

"This is our target. Tomorrow, we will begin with our plan," Ray declared.

Ryder and the others finished eating, and Estonia left.

Alice also walked back to her room after talking with Ryder for some time.

Ryder stood up and entered his room.

"This trip was a failure, but now that I’m back, I can get back to the things that I needed to do. I had to delay meeting with Jameson, but not anymore. Tomorrow, I will do it. I also need him to call Stanner back to the city, if possible. My mission depends on him now," Ryder muttered as he looked at Jameson’s address on his phone.

’I need to be careful, though. I can’t let my eagerness to finish my mission have me make a mistake. Killing a millionaire in his house is much more serious than killing a criminal in private,’ he thought.

He decided that he wouldn’t get his car anywhere near Jameson’s house and sneak inside without getting caught in cameras. Even though he would need to purchase some items from the store, his safety was number one.

Far away from Ryder’s city, there existed an isolated Island. There were many luxurious private ships around the island, all of which belonged to the owner of the Island.

The edge of the island was surrounded by forest from all corners, but the center portion was mostly clear.

There was a huge mansion at the center of the island that looked to be even bigger than a palace of a king.

The Mansion was surrounded in mist, and the sky above the island was surrounded by dark clouds. The mansion was also entirely black in color.

There was a big hall inside the mansion, and there was a throne placed at one end of the hall.

A person was sitting on that throne.

There were seven more people inside the hall.

"So, they are all dead?" The person on the throne asked.

"Yes, master," One of the seven people replied.

"Tell me, Darksoul. Was your plan worth it? You claimed something for me, but it seems like a complete failure. What do you have to say about that?" The person on the throne inquired.

"This was the failure of my leadership. I don’t entirely know what happened, but they shouldn’t have died just like that. Something definitely interfered with my plan. But I take full responsibility. I should’ve sent more powerful people with them. I overestimated the lower level member," One of the seven replied.

He was called Darksoul in the Organisation. Darksoul was the person Okala told Ryder about. He was one of the Seven Generals of The Uprising, but his real identity in the outside world was different.

Darksoul had a very powerful position on the outside that gave him a lot of influence in the outside world.

"I want what you promised. I don’t care if you succeeded or failed. I want what I want, and you know that. If you fail, you also know what will happen to you," the Person on the throne replied.

"I won’t fail," DarkSoul dropped down to one knee and placed one of his hands on his chest as he promised the person on the throne.

He stood up and left the hall.

Ryder finished his dinner and got on his bed, ready to dive into the world of Virtual Reality.

He wore the Divinity Glasses.

"Take me to Divinity," he let out.

He soon found himself in the world of Divinity inside the small hut.

He glanced back and noticed that Rale was sleeping. The other people were still standing guard.

They saluted Ryder as soon as they saw him.
