Divinity: Against The Godly System

Chapter 592: Brother

The cab moved through the city, taking Ryder to a certain part of the city where not many cars went unless they were cars that had special passes given by the clan that ruled over that part of the city.

"What more can you tell me about that place?" Ryder asked, sitting in the back of the car.

"More? All I can say is that it’s a scary place where we don’t dare to go, so we don’t know how it actually is. We have only heard of the stories that the people who went there are still missing," the driver replied.

"So they were killed, I guess. Now I understand why you are scared to go there," Ryder said, understanding the man’s fear.

"Is this your first time going there as well?" The man asked Ryder.

"That’s right," Ryder answered.

"May I ask what business you have there? Because you can’t be a member of their clan at least," the driver said while asking a question at the same time.

"Oh? Why can’t I be their member? Do you not have the scary vibe on my face?" Ryder asked, laughing.

"It’s just that they don’t accept any foreigners," the driver answered. "Moreover, you seem like a kind person who can’t even kill a mosquito, let alone joining a gang where people are killed often."

"Oh? I don’t look like a person who can kill?" Ryder asked, laughing. "I guess you’re right. I am just too kind. I can’t even think about killing a person."

"As I expected. So why are you going there?" the driver asked again.

"Actually, I want to find someone there. A person named Draco Liang," Ryder said.

Screech!

As soon as Ryder said the name, the driver hastily pressed the brake in shock.

"What name did you say? Can you repeat that?" the man asked, turning back.

"Draco Liang. Why? Do you know him?" Ryder asked, curious.

"Do I know him? You’d better be asking who doesn’t know him! Draco Liang, the person that owns the entire underworld. He’s the Master of the Liang Clan, which he started. That clan is where you’re going. He is said to be a ruthless person that even the government doesn’t want to offend!" The Driver explained.

"What business could you have with him?" he further asked.

" He’s my cousin. His mother is the second sister of my mother. I just want to meet him since he’s my extended family," Ryder replied, making stuff up.

"He’s your relative?" The driver exclaimed in shock. "But you don’t look like you have any Chinese genes?"

"I guess they are my dormant genes. You don’t have to care about that. Just take me there. I’m sure I’ll be safe," Ryder said, smiling.

"Ah, alright," the driver muttered as he started the car again.

Sitting in the back of the car, Ryder could see that the man was starting to sweat.

"What happened?" He asked the man. "Are you worried now that you know I’m related to him? Don’t worry; I am not that close to feel bad when someone calls him a murderer. Because he probably is. So you can rest assured."

"Also, you still don’t have to take me inside that area. Just stop me outside like we had decided before," he further added.

"T-thank you," the driver responded.

"I had another question," Ryder asked after some more time passed.

"What question?" The driver inquired.

"What’s the presence of police in that area?" Ryder asked.

"Police? There’s no police! The Liang Clan is the police, the mayor, the judge, everything! You can think of that place as a small independent country inside our country that has its own rules," the driver answered.

’ Interesting. I wonder if they have cameras or not. It doesn’t matter. Since it’s a criminal area, I doubt there would be cameras. But I’ll still wear the mask,’ he thought.

The car finally stopped in front of a red like that was painted on the ground.

"Are we there yet?" Ryder asked, confused.

"That’s right. The marking you see on the road? That’s the warning signal. Two hundred meters from here is where the Liang Clan’s area begins," the driver replied.

"Ah, interesting. Thanks for getting me here. Also, one more thing," Ryder said as he opened the door. "Can you look here?"

The driver turned back to look at Ryder. As his eyes met Ryder’s, he was instantly hypnotized.

" You won’t remember meeting me ever. You’ll forget everything that happened regarding me," he told the driver as he stepped out of the car.

"Oh right, keep this money," he further added as he placed some money in the man’s pocket.

The driver turned the car back and left.

Ryder looked at the red pain on the ground, which seemed to be making an X Mark.

He couldn’t help but laugh at the tactics. "This toy can’t keep me out."

He waved his hand, bringing the mask out of his inventory, and wore it before he crossed the marking.

Even though he crossed the marking, he wasn’t walking. Instead, he was flying ahead.

While he flew, he made sure to cast his illusion to make sure no one managed to see him even if he flew past them. The only concern he had were the cameras that could record him, which was why he flew high, keeping an eye on possible cameras.

Surprisingly there were many cameras, unlike what he had previously assumed. It seems like every portion of this area was being monitored.

The cameras were focusing downwards on the road, making it easier for Ryder to avoid them as he flew from above them.

He could also see men walking with machine guns, despite having so many cameras. It seems like the security wasn’t lax just because they had cameras.

He tried to find someone who was alone that could be asked questions; unfortunately, it was proving to be difficult. The people that were alone were in the range of cameras while the ones who weren’t in the views of cameras were walking together.

It was only after a long time that he found a guard who was single and out of the camera’s view.

He landed on the ground in front of the dark-haired guard. The guard also had a gun in his hand, but he didn’t know that Ryder was standing before him.

Ryder suddenly canceled the illusion, appearing in front of the man.

Seeing Ryder appear out of thin air, the man was initially stunned as he stepped back in fear. He soon stopped as his eyes fell in Ryder’s eyes.

"You work for me from now on. Take me to the place where Jiang stays," Ryder told the guard, who nodded his head as he turned back.

Ryder again cast his illusion as he walked behind the guard. Now that he was walking, he didn’t need to worry even if the cameras saw him.

The guard brought Ryder in a certain direction, but he couldn’t go too far as he was stopped by more clan members.

"What are you doing in this area? Only high level members can go ahead. Did you forget the rules? Go back!’ the guards told the dark-haired guard, unaware that Ryder had walked behind them.

A Scythe appeared in Ryder’s hands as he smirked.

Slash!

With a single Slash of his Scythe, two heads rolled on the ground.

"You’re wrong. This is my domain now. And whoever I want can go wherever I want," Ryder said before he shifted his attention to the man who had again started walking.

Ryder followed the man again, who was once again stopped by the next layer of defense.

"Seriously! Just what kind of defense is it? Even the President of a country won’t have so many layers of defense," Ryder thought, smiling wryly.

He once again took the men out of his way, clearing the path.

Similar to this, Ryder faced three more defensive layers where the guard was stopped. Not only stopped, the other guards even suddenly started firing at him, stunned that someone who was so low in ranking managed to get here.

As for the ranking, they could see it because of the tattoo that was in the man’s hand.

The man that Ryder had hypnotized was shot, being killed ultimately, but Ryder simply hypnotized another guard and gave him the mission.

That’s how he continued passing through the next few defenses before he ultimately ended up in front of a beautiful mansion.

"Is this the place where Jiang stays?" Ryder asked the guard, who nodded his head.

"Alright. You can leave now. You’ll forget whatever happened and everything related to me, including the fact that you met or saw me," Ryder told the guard as he sent him away.

As the guard left, Ryder looked at the mansion. He could see two cameras that were looking straight in his direction.

He raised his hand and casually waved at the cameras before he stepped towards the gates.

Reaching the gate, he pushed it open. As the doors weren’t locked, they opened instantly.
