American Horror Story, Starting from Falls Town

Chapter 139 Angel of Wisdom
Europe, Vatican.

It was still six in the morning in America, but it was already noon in Italy.

This is a holy place for Christianity and a must-see for all Christians on pilgrimage.

Today, St. Peter's Basilica was suddenly closed to tourists, with the reason given being that the interior of the church was undergoing maintenance.

This kind of thing happens several times a year. After all, St. Peter's Basilica was built in 1506 and it needs regular maintenance due to its age.

However, there did not appear to be any staff maintaining the church. Instead, there were hundreds of clergy gathered together. If you didn't know, you would have thought they were electing a new pope.

The Pope, dressed in light yellow clothes, led hundreds of clergymen around a clear pool half a person deep and recited the Bible aloud.

As the clergy continued to chant, it seemed as if points of light floated out from their bodies and fell into the pool. These fluorescent lights did not disappear in the water and continued to sparkle.

There was more and more fluorescent light in the pool, and finally the entire pool was filled with fluorescent light, and the bottom of the pool could no longer be seen.

Seeing this, the Pope nodded and said to the people around him.

"Get Elise ready."

Soon, a nun wearing a black eye mask came to the fluorescent pool.

The nun has a typical Latin American face, with wheat-colored skin and a Mediterranean charm.

Although she was wearing a loose white nun's uniform, her graceful figure could not be concealed. However, most of the clergymen present were old men, and no one cared about the nun's appearance.

"Elise, are you ready?"

Elise took a deep breath.

"Your Holiness, I am ready!"

"Very good. Now walk into the pool, open your heart, and pray devoutly to God. You will soon sense the divine presence."

Iris nodded slightly and slowly walked into the glowing pool.

The pool was originally only as deep as an adult's waist, but now Iris walked all the way down until the water in the pool covered her head without reaching the bottom.

A normal person would definitely feel scared if faced with such a situation, but Iris had a devout faith, so she was very calm.

After her whole body was submerged in the water, Iris did not feel that she could not breathe. Instead, she felt an indescribable sense of comfort, as if she had returned to the fetal state.

The pool water blocked out all sounds from the outside world, allowing Iris to feel her true inner self.

Not long after, Iris heard a voice calling her name in her heart.

Are you my human form?
who are you?
My name is Uriel!

The fluorescence in the pool suddenly began to disappear rapidly, as if it was sucked away by something.

Seeing this situation, the Pope immediately became nervous.

A moment later, Iris walked out of the pool of clear water with no expression on her face. She glanced at all the old men present with wise eyes.

"My name is Uriel!"

The Pope breathed a sigh of relief and took the lead in kneeling down to salute the nuns in white.

"Welcome the Angel of Wisdom!"

Other clergymen also knelt in obeisance.

"Everyone, get up! Tell me why you let me come to this world?"

The old men at the scene were trembling and helping each other to get up.

Especially the Pope, who was over seventy years old and still had to kneel, and he almost couldn't stand up.

However, after Uriel put his hand on the Pope's shoulder, the Pope immediately felt his body become relaxed, as if he had returned to his prime and his body was full of energy.

"Lord Uriel, it's like this, we have lost contact with Lord Michael!"

"Michael lost contact?"

Uriel frowned slightly, and his originally calm expression turned into surprise.

"Yes, Lord Uriel! We tried to contact Lord Michael, but two months have passed and we still haven't been able to get in touch!"

"I see, let me see what's going on."

Uriel's eyes under the eye patch suddenly turned silver and emitted a dazzling light, and his vision seemed to transcend time and space.

But after a while, Uriel's frown deepened.

"Strange, how could I not see what was happening?"

The Pope saw that Uriel looked a little nervous.

"Lord Uriel, has something terrible happened?"

"It seems that some force has interfered with the fate of the past, making it impossible for me to see clearly! But I have already seen Michael's location, so you don't have to worry."

The camera returns to the west coast of America.

Roy, the boxer, violated the rules and did morning exercises with Heather and Penny, two cheerleaders, until almost noon.

After his morning exercise, Roy's stomach was empty and he was very hungry.

However, Heather and Penny did eat a lot of high-protein food, but they still had to eat some staple food.

My original plan to catch up on sleep had to be turned into a nap.

While eating lunch, Roy looked at the Los Angeles newspaper of the day.

As expected, the incident of the subway man-eating monster did not appear in any newspapers, and no one disappeared on the subway last night. It seems that Roy's plan to drive people away after getting on the last subway was effective.

In the newspapers, Los Angeles was prosperous and peaceful, as if nothing had happened.

But Roy knew how many undercurrents existed beneath this peaceful sea.

At least for now, the FEA should have reached a tacit understanding with the cult organization behind the man-eating monster. Both parties do not want this matter to be known to the public.

This also means that Roy and Dalia should not be in any trouble.

After all, Roy was able to kill half of the man-eating monsters, and he didn't believe that the top leaders of the cult were not afraid.

If Roy gets angry, none of these people will be able to escape.

After reading the newspaper and eating five servings of food, Roy finally went to sleep with Heather and Penny in his arms, feeling satisfied.

The two girls had just done some morning exercises and were quite tired, so they needed to take a nap and rest.

He slept until dusk. With a physical fitness of 49, Roy had a very strong recovery ability. He only needed a few hours of sleep to restore his energy.

Heather and Penny had woken up a long time ago. They had slept for a long time last night and were now watching a soap opera in the living room.

After getting dressed and going to the living room, Roy began to talk to the two girls about their next plans.

"Opening a studio?"

Heather and Penny both looked surprised when they heard Roy's plan.

"Yes, I might collaborate with FEA more frequently in the future and charge some outsourcing fees. If I pay taxes according to personal income tax, it would be a huge loss!"

Heather had taken over the family business and was familiar with the matter, so she immediately agreed.

"Roy is right! We really can't let the federal government get away with it!"

When talking about this, Heather felt very painful, because she paid a huge amount of inheritance tax, which was all green US dollars!

Penny hesitated.

"But we're not accountants, and we don't know much about the laws of the federal states."

Heather thought for a moment and made a suggestion.

"Roy, we can hire Nord to do this!" Nord was the lawyer who helped Heather with the inheritance. This old man was trustworthy and very reliable.

Roy nodded.

"Sure! Heather, go contact Nord and ask him to help deal with the studio's problems. Afterwards, I can ask him to be the studio's legal advisor."

"Ok."

Penny looked at Roy and Heather.

"But you still need an accountant, otherwise the tax issues will be more troublesome! The bar I worked at before was the same. The boss would curse at me every time at the end of the year."

Indeed, in a country like America with so many taxes, if we don’t have an accountant, we don’t know how much money we will waste.

"Let's set up the studio structure first, and then we can figure out a solution to the accounting issues over time. Worst case scenario, we can outsource it to an accounting firm."

Penny suddenly had an idea and she grabbed Roy's arm and started shaking him.

"Honey, I want to work in your studio. It's too boring to do nothing all day!"

Heather then hugged Roy's other arm.

"Honey, I want one too!"

Roy thought about it and decided that he should find something for the two girls to do, otherwise they would become useless if they were doing nothing all day.

"Well, maybe you could try to get an accounting certificate! For now, just be my secretary!"

When there is something to do, the secretary will do it. When there is nothing to do... cough cough!
Penny seemed to see what Roy was thinking. She suddenly sat on Roy's lap and began to speak in a hoarse voice.

"Boss, you must give me a higher salary!"

I have to say that Penny is a woman who knows how to have fun. With just one sentence, she made Roy stand at attention and salute.

"That depends on your performance!"

Penny felt Roy's positive energy and her body suddenly became soft.

"Boss, I will definitely perform well!"

Then Heather joined in on the role play.

"Boss, I want one too!"

The three of them were very excited about the performance, but there was no real fighting with guns. The main reason was that the two girls had just experienced a battle in the morning and were still in a state of damage, so they needed some time to recover.

After that, Roy's life in Los Angeles suddenly became free.

The knockout rounds of the Santa Monica Cup won't be until the weekend, so there's nothing to do for now.

Instead, Heather and Penny became busy, and the two girls began to take care of the studio affairs.

Especially Penny, she seemed to really want to get an accounting certificate, and bought a lot of materials to prepare to teach herself accounting knowledge.

This is a good thing, so Roy is also encouraging Penny, hoping that she can succeed.

He also accompanied Dalia and Ceci. Roy's company made them smile more and more, and the haze of the past seemed to have completely disappeared.

Of course, there are also Saltana and Meili, but Saltana has been very busy with work recently, so we basically can't see each other.

As for Mary, Roy would chat with her every time he went to UCLA.

Roy could feel that Mary's affection for him was already very high, but it was just a little short of that.

That is the feeling of being more than friends but less than lovers.

This may be because Mary had some doubts about Roy's infidelity, so she was unable to break through that layer of window paper.

It doesn’t matter. Wasn’t Dalia like this at the beginning?

Now hasn’t he been defeated by himself?

As long as he keeps this up, Roy will always have a chance to deal with Mary.

Alas, it's a bit too busy. Roy wishes he could split himself up so that he can manage his time more effectively.

However, these past few days, Roy always felt as if someone was spying on him, and he didn't know if it was an illusion.

Or maybe Beelzebub's cult organization didn't dare to attack him directly, so they sent people to monitor him. In that case, this cult organization is indeed brave enough.

Roy decided to find an opportunity to lure the watcher out.

In the evening, Roy, Heather, Penny, Mary, Dalia and Cece held a barbecue party on the Santa Monica beach as a family.

Unfortunately, Saltana has been working 996 recently and is as tired as a dog. He has no mood to attend the barbecue party.

Otherwise it would be perfect.

Meili seems to like children very much and has been playing with Ceci. This girl really has the potential to be a good wife and mother.

Ceci was almost going crazy with joy. There was a beautiful big sister playing with her. Her silver bell-like laughter echoed in the night sky by the sea.

At this time, Roy felt the sense of being spied on again.

There was no place to hide on the beach. Roy looked around and soon found a young man in the distance, stealthily watching them with his parasol.

Using parasols in the middle of the night is really suspicious!
"I found someone spying on us!"

Roy's words surprised the girls, and they all began to look around, looking for the peeper.

"No need to look around, that guy is over there under the parasol."

Dalia looked in the direction of the parasol and immediately saw a familiar figure.

"I'm going to catch that guy, you guys wait here for me."

As he spoke, Roy started moving instantly and ran towards the parasol.

"Wait a minute, Roy!"

Dalia wanted to call out to Roy, but Roy, with his 32 points of agility, ran away in the blink of an eye.

There was no choice, so Dalia had to give instructions to Heather and Penny.

"Get rid of it and help me take care of the child!"

After saying that, Dalia ran towards Roy.

The peeper saw Roy running towards him and started running, but his speed was too far behind Roy's and he was knocked down by Roy not long after he ran.

"How dare you spy on me, you little brat! If you don't want to suffer, tell me who sent you right now!"

"Fuck! I wasn't sent by anyone!"

"How dare you speak so harshly!"

Just as Roy was about to deal with the peeper, Dalia ran over breathlessly to stop Roy.

"Roy, don't do it, he's my ex-husband Kyle!"

Roy raised his eyebrows and lowered his raised fist.

It turned out to be my ex-husband. Roy thought it was Beelzebub’s cult!
Kyle stood up fiercely and glared at Roy and Dalia.

"Dalia, you divorced me because I cheated on you, so why did you accept this philandering man?"

Kyle began to question Dalia, obviously feeling very resentful.

Dalia was speechless for a moment. The reason they divorced was indeed because Kyle cheated on her and she couldn't stand it.

Roy glanced at Kyle. The boy was a bit good-looking, but thin and looked like a weakling.

"People are different. I can handle three or four people and still satisfy them. Can you?"
