Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 342 Infiltration

Chapter 342: Infiltration

Ryder stepped inside the roof and walked over to the other end of the room from where he had a clear view of his target.
He brought his binoculars and started looking towards the building where his enemies were supposed to be.
"I see no one. The roof is clear. The windows are covered, and the entrance seems to be locked—no Uprising member on sight. Sigh, I sure hope that they aren't inside this place," he muttered as he brought a mask out of his inventory.
It was one of the many masks of famous characters he had brought before.
This time, he was using a mask that seemed to have the face of a green monster.
It was one of the famous characters of current times that was used in superhero movies. A man who could turn into a green monster and smash everything, including the villains. He was called Bulk.
Ryder wore the mask to cover his face. Since he was hoping to make it a reality and save everyone so that he wouldn't need to die again, he took all the necessary precautions to make his life easier in the future.
After wearing the mask, he also wore a black cloak that came down to his knees.
He only had one loaded gun in his inventory now since his other guns were emptied in the last battle, but he didn't reload them as that would've taken time. He was sure that his special gun was going to be enough for most. It was a gun that didn't need to be reloaded after all. As for the masked people, even ten guns wouldn't be enough for them, so he didn't bother.
He looked at the time on his watch.
"Slightly over three hours. It should be enough if I play my cards right," he muttered as he stood on the edge of the roof.
He started using his Ruler of Nature and flew straight to the next building. Fortunately, it was early morning, and this section of the city never had any traffic anyway.
Landing on the roof, he walked straight towards the door.
He was sure that it was going to be locked like it was last time when he opened it using his gun. Unfortunately, he couldn't use his gun as the noise might attract their attention.
This was the problem he was going to face, so he had already thought of it.
Before he left the Maxwell Estate, he had taken a gas cutter from there, which he kept in his inventory.
Bringing the gas cutter out of his invention, he started cutting the lock on the door. He had never actually used the gas cutter, but he had seen it being used before, so he felt like he knew what he was doing.
Soon, the door was open for entry. Ryder stepped on the stairs and started going downstairs, placing his foot gently on the stairs, not to make any sound in case someone was near. He also had his gun in his hand, which was attached to a silencer so that he could shoot people without the noise of a gunshot.
'They were on the 5th floor, according to that guy. There shouldn't be anyone on the higher floors, but I can't be careless. He did say that he entered the building in the afternoon, so he wouldn't have known who was where this early in the morning,' Ryder thought as he reached the 16th floor.
He walked through the floor and looked around to find if someone was there. He wanted to clear each floor as he went down so that no one could create any problem later.
Searching around the entire floor, he found no one. The 16th floor was completely empty. He straight away went downstairs and started checking the 15th floor.
He kept clearing floors as he went down. Unfortunately, he didn't find anyone.
It wasn't until the Seventh Floor when he finally found a person for the first time.
As soon as he landed on the Seventh Floor, he saw a man in a military uniform walking away from him. As the entrance of the stairs were behind the man in the hallway, he didn't notice Ryder in the hallway.
Ryder raised his gun and aimed at the head of the man from the back.
With the intent to kill, he pressed the trigger and fired the shot.
The bullet traveled the distance between the two in the blink of an eye and penetrated the head of the man.
"Urgh," a light noise left the mouth of the man as he dropped to the ground. He died instantly.
Ryder walked towards the body of the man, checking the rooms along the way to make sure that they were empty.
Soon, he reached the body of the man and passed it. He held its hand and dragged it inside an empty room before leaving the room and closing the door. He didn't want anyone to find the body if they happened to come upstairs.
He continued along the way and reached the end of the hallway. There was only one room left to check now, and that was where Ryder was standing.
All the rooms he had checked so far were empty, but he was sure that this room wasn't. He could hear the sounds coming from inside.
"Where did he go? It's been over 5 minutes already. He should've been here 6 minutes ago. It's his turn to keep an eye. Am I the only one who's punctual here? I'm always on time when it's my turn but this guy!"
Ryder was standing outside, hearing the noises coming from inside.
'It sounds like there is a guy inside. He should be waiting for the guy I killed here. What is he talking about, though? His turn to keep an eye? Could it be that the bombs are inside? But they should've been on the 5th floor. Did they shift it downstairs later? I need to be careful here,' Ryder thought as he waited outside.
He held his gun firmly as he knocked on the door, thinking that the man would unlock the door and step outside. That's when he wished to handle the man, away from the explosives.
"Hmm? You're late! Come on inside," said the person from inside, spoiling Ryder's plan.
Ryder opened the door and stepped inside.
A strange sight greeted him as soon as he entered, which he hadn't expected at all.
He hoped that he would only see the fourteen bombs here, but he saw something that made him stunned.
