american horror story Chapter 258 258: Showdown

The sudden blare of the fire alarm and the smoke successfully threw the cultists into chaos.

So, where did that fire alarm and smoke co from?

Why, Sibyl, of course!

Roy had discussed it with Sibyl beforehand: if he wasn't back down within twenty minutes, she should create a diversion.

Sibyl was very obedient. Right at the twenty-minute mark, she snuck into the hotel and lit so flammable materials.

The hotel's fire alarm system sensed the smoke and went off.

Sibyl's action did have so effect, at least making it easier for Roy to escape the hotel.

"Officer Bennett, let's go!"

Roy pulled Zoe into the Big Bumblebee, then slamd on the gas, heading towards the church in the city center. The blonde policewoman followed closely behind on her motorcycle.

"You're saying... you were almost killed?"

"Yes, Lord Gillespie."

The blonde young man, Walter Sullivan, knelt before Gillespie.

"Hmm! Could it be the Witches' Union acting again?"

Gillespie's first thought was the Witches' Union. After all, Sullivan had used magic to trap three little witches.

"Lord Gillespie, it might not be the Witches' Union. The person was a man."

"Oh, is that so? Then who could it be?"

Gillespie fell into thought. Just then, a cultist in protective gear walked in and whispered a few words in her ear.

"What did you say?! The FEA has launched an operation against New Centralia?"

The news shocked Gillespie so much that she couldn't control her emotions or her volu.

The Followers of the Apocalypse could be said to be operating very openly in New Centralia. It would be foolish to think they didn't have people on their side in the federal governnt.

So, after the FEA in Portland, Maine, was mobilized, an insider noticed the problem and relayed the information to Gillespie.

Gillespie paced back and forth, her expression becoming very ugly.

"Why would the FEA suddenly attack us? Why has it co to this? Who is behind this?"

After all, Arica was the world's superpower in this era. Suddenly hearing that she had to go up against the national machine made Gillespie very uneasy.

At this mont, Walter Sullivan, who was kneeling on the ground, spoke.

"Bishop, things have co to this. We can only speed up our plan. If it's just the FEA that's been deployed, we should still have ti, right?"

Sullivan's words reminded Gillespie, and she quickly regained her composure.

"Walter, you're right! There's no point in thinking about this now. The reckoning can only wait until our Lord's kingdom descends! Walter, pass down my orders. Tell all the believers to prepare for the holy war! Also, I need to perform that ritual. Have everything ready!"

"Yes, Lord Gillespie!"

Sullivan and the cultist in protective gear retreated, leaving Gillespie alone in the office.

After giving the orders, Gillespie's mood didn't improve; instead, it beca even heavier.

After a long while, Gillespie picked up the landline phone on her desk and dialed a number.

"Hello, this is Gillespie. Wolf, the Holy Sect has reached its most critical mont. I think we should put aside our past conflicts and cooperate sincerely."

"Alright, I agree to your terms. Your daughter will succeed after my death. Then it's settled!"

Gillespie hung up the phone, her gaze fixed on the Sun Holy Ring emblem on the table as she muttered to herself.

"Want to succeed ? You'll have a long wait!"

As early as when she sacrificed her daughter, Gillespie had already prepared for eternal life.

It was just a pity that her daughter wasn't very obedient, forcing Gillespie's plan for eternal life to be postponed by 20 years.

"This is the last chance. I absolutely cannot fail again!"

On the other side, Roy, who was on his way to the New Centralia Cathedral, suddenly felt that sothing was wrong. First, there were many more helicopters flying back and forth in the sky. Then, the streets had beco strangely quiet.

Even if today was the Followers of the Apocalypse's Sabbath, it shouldn't be this quiet, right?

Wasn't it said that nearly half the people in New Centralia didn't believe in the Followers of the Apocalypse?

Just as he was wondering, Roy suddenly felt the ground begin to shake violently. The shaking didn't last too long, only a few seconds.

But the Big Bumblebee suddenly spoke.

"Mr. Black... electromagnetic interference... I'm afraid... shutting down..."

"Bumblebee, what did you say?"

No sooner had he spoken than the Big Bumblebee, which was on autopilot, suddenly lost control and started spinning, nearly hitting Sibyl, who was leading the way.

Finally, Roy barely managed to control the steering wheel, crashing the car into a wall to stop.

At this point, the Big Bumblebee had completely stopped responding. Neither ignition nor any other operation worked.

"Zoe, are you alright?"

"I'm fine! Roy, did your car just talk?"

"Don't worry about the details!"

At this mont, Sibyl rode over on her motorcycle to ask about Roy's situation.

"Mr. Black, what happened?"

"My car seems to have suddenly lost control!"

"Lost control? Could it be because of the earthquake just now?"

When an earthquake occurs, it is indeed possible for it to be accompanied by changes in the magnetic field, causing so electronic equipnt to malfunction.

However, as a silicon-based lifeform from Cybertron, the Big Bumblebee shouldn't be shut down by a simple earthquake's magnetic field change, right?

Just as he was thinking this, a strange sound suddenly ca from overhead.

Roy looked up and saw a helicopter falling from the sky, right towards his location.

Why is the Grim Reaper of the gutter still chasing ?!

"Watch out!"

Roy quickly scrambled out of the car, pushed Sibyl aside, then transford into his demon form, successfully catching the falling helicopter.

This scene shocked Sibyl beyond words. She didn't co back to her senses until Roy threw the helicopter to the side of the road.

"Sothing definitely happened!"

Roy noticed that the helicopters in the sky were falling like dumplings, which definitely wasn't caused by a simple earthquake!

"You... you're a demon?"

Sibyl finally ca back to her senses, looking at Roy in his demon form and speaking stamringly.

At this mont, Zoe also got out of the car.

"Uh-huh, Roy is indeed a demon, but a good demon, and I'm a witch too."

The combination of the words "good" and "demon" made Sibyl doubt her life for a mont.

However, judging from Roy's previous actions, he had indeed never主动 hard anyone, so Sibyl couldn't help but fall silent.

"It's coming!"

Roy noticed a large area of thick fog rapidly surging out like a tide from the Followers of the Apocalypse's cathedral.

In almost the blink of an eye, it had already affected Roy's location.

At this ti, looking from a high place, it would be even clearer. For example, Iris was currently standing on a hilltop outside the city of New Centralia and saw this shocking teorological change.

"Ms. Iris, this is..."

Even Edgar, an experienced frontline FEA agent, had never seen such a grand scene.

"It seems soone has discovered our actions and wants to stop us!"

"Ms. Iris, then what should we do?"

"At this ti, we need to let those sinners witness the great power of God!"

With that, Iris picked up the black leather book she always carried with her, flipped through a few pages, and began to recite.

"God said: Let there be light!"

Instantly, six pairs of pure white wings of light grew from Iris's back, and holy light shot into the sky.

At the sa ti, the dark clouds above the city of New Centralia were pierced by sunlight, and the fog on the ground began to recede rapidly under the sunlight.

This awe-inspiring scene left the FEA agents beside Iris dumbfounded.

This was simply a miracle!

Gillespie, who was preparing for the ritual inside the cathedral, imdiately sensed the anomaly.

"Damn it! It's an angel of the false god!"

Although Gillespie didn't know which angel did it, she was certain that an angel capable of doing this was definitely of a high level.

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Gillespie took out a serpentine dagger, her eyes turning red in that instant.

In the city, countless fanatical believers of the Followers of the Apocalypse also picked up sharp weapons around them at the sa ti.

"No one will stop !"

With that, Gillespie raised the serpentine dagger high and stabbed it into her chest.

Blood spurted out, and this scene was being played out everywhere in the city. A large amount of rust ford where the warm blood splattered.

"Omnipotent Red God (another na for the Lord of Wrath), please let your great power descend upon this filthy world and completely destroy the power of the false god's ssenger!"

The bizarre cross on top of the cathedral began to emit a dazzling red light. This was Gillespie using the power of faith accumulated in the church for 20 years, as well as the sacrifice of hundreds of fanatics, to counter Iris's grand prophecy.

Two different divine powers constantly collided in the city of New Centralia, causing the city to experience another earthquake.

The ground sank, houses collapsed, and the scene was like the end of the world.

In the end, Iris chose to retreat and didn't continue fighting Gillespie.

Because if they continued to fight, the entire New Centralia would be destroyed, and half of the bla would definitely fall on Iris.

Even an archangel could not bear such a sin!

"Ms. Iris, did you fail?"

Watching Iris retract her wings of light, while a small half of New Centralia was still shrouded in smoke, Edgar imdiately had a bad feeling.

"No, I stopped myself. Continuing to fight that fellow would sacrifice many innocent people."

Edgar opened his mouth, but in his opinion, sacrificing a portion of people to prevent a greater disaster was definitely worth it.

"Then what should we do now?"

"What you need to do is seal off this city. As for the rest, leave it to ."

Iris closed the black leather book and walked towards downtown New Centralia.

Watching the white-robed nun's departing figure, Edgar picked up a satellite phone and began to issue orders.

"Have the FEAR ground forces enter the city and establish a defensive line around the fog area!"

The earthquake finally stopped, and Roy finally released Zoe from his embrace.

"Are you guys alright?"

"I'm fine!"

Zoe was definitely fine, after all, she was in Roy's arms.

"I'm fine too, just a few minor scratches!"

As for Sibyl, her luck was not so good. She accidentally fell during the earthquake and got so bruises.

After regaining her footing, Zoe looked around at the drastically changed environnt with a dazed expression: collapsed buildings, broken roads, and pervasive fog.

"Roy, what exactly happened just now? Was that really just an earthquake?"

"I just sensed Uriel's power. It must be the Angel of Wisdom fighting the Followers of the Apocalypse that caused this!"

Roy had witnessed Iris's power in Los Angeles before, and he sensed it as soon as she started unleashing her grand prophecy this ti.

The arrival of the Angel of Wisdom was also a good thing for Roy. After all, the Silent Hill incident was clearly getting bigger and bigger, and it was good to have soone to take responsibility.

However, Sibyl was still shocked by these words.

"There are angels too?"

Zoe looked at Sibyl strangely.

"You just saw a demon, why are you surprised there are angels?"

Sibyl slapped her face, feeling like she had said sothing stupid.

"Mr. Black, what do we do next?"

Roy looked at the blonde policewoman.

"Officer Bennett, you've seen it too. What's going to happen next is no longer suitable for you to be involved in. You'd better take advantage of this mont and leave this fog area as soon as possible."

Sibyl pondered for a mont and nodded.

"Alright, maybe you're right! Mr. Black, I hope we can et again in the future."

Sibyl shook hands with Roy, then helped up her motorcycle.

Given the current road conditions, probably only motorcycles and tanks could drive.

"Oh, right, Officer Bennett. If you encounter other FEA agents after you get out, please conceal my existence. But if you see a white-robed nun with a black blindfold over her eyes, tell her that Roy Black is also in this city."

Although Sibyl was a little strange about why Roy wanted to hide himself from his colleagues, she still agreed.

"I will!"

The blonde policewoman Sibyl drove away on her motorcycle. Roy watched for a while before preparing to take Zoe to the cathedral.

At this mont, the shut-down Big Bumblebee suddenly restarted.

"Mr. Black, please wait for !"

The Big Bumblebee suddenly transforming into its robot form startled Zoe.

"Roy, it it it..."

Roy patted Zoe's little head to calm her down.

"Bumblebee, are you back to normal?"

In the current environnt, it was impossible to receive radio signals, yet Bumblebee was able to speak normally.

"Yes! The sudden strong electromagnetic interference just now forced to shut down. After restarting, my language module seems to have returned to normal!"

"Roy, what exactly is this?"

Zoe hadn't recovered from the shock yet.

"Bumblebee is a silicon-based lifeform from outer space. You can think of it as an intelligent robot that can transform."

"Hello, Ms. Zoe Benson!"

Bumblebee reached out a hand to Zoe. Zoe glanced at Roy, and then, encouraged by his gaze, she also reached out her hand.

However, Zoe's hand was too small, and she could only hold one of Bumblebee's fingers.

"Bumblebee, you should transform back into car mode! Your robot form is too conspicuous!"

"No problem!"

Now that they had a ride, Roy and Zoe didn't need to walk to the cathedral.
