American Horror Story, Starting from Falls Town

Chapter 507 The Ultimate Weapon
The self-driving Bumblebee was an eye-opener for Piper; as a girl living in central America, it was probably the most technologically advanced thing she had ever seen in her life.

America is actually a very divided country. In the big cities on the east and west coasts, you can see all sorts of high-tech things.

However, people living in the central plains of America may still be living the life of the 1980s.

Roy took out the hound ring, put it on his finger, and began to activate its tracking ability by stroking the pattern on the ring.

Soon, the phantom of the hellhound spotted its target, Milton.

Piper watched Roy's actions with curiosity.

"Mr. Roy, may I ask you a question?"

"Just ask."

Why are you tracking this person?

Piper actually had a pretty good impression of Milton because the old man gave her a tip.

“He stole something important, and I have to get it back.”

"Was it witchcraft when you made someone's head explode just now?"

"It's not witchcraft, it's a superpower."

"Do superpowers really exist in this world?"

"Why do you have so many questions?"

Piper seems to find Roy to be an easy person to get along with, so the questions keep piling up, which makes Roy a little impatient.

"I... I was just a little curious."

Seeing Piper's aggrieved expression, Roy had no choice but to patiently remind her.

"We're not from the same world, you don't need to know so much, understand? Being too curious isn't a good thing!"

At that moment, Bumblebee suddenly spoke.

“Mr. Blake, I see an old muscle car up ahead. Could it be our target?”

"An old-fashioned muscle car?"

Roy immediately looked ahead and sure enough, there was an old muscle car speeding along.

"Catch up and see!"

"Roger that, buckle up!"

Bumblebee immediately accelerated, and the strong push made Piper scream.

In a very short time, Bumblebee increased its speed to 500 kilometers per hour, a speed at which it could take off if it had wings.

In just a few seconds, Bumblebee was driving alongside the old muscle car.

Roy glanced at the driver in the old muscle car, and sure enough, it was Nicolas Cage with his horse-like face.

"Hey Milton, you're surrounded! On behalf of the Spirit Realm Police Department, I'm issuing you a stern warning: drop your weapons, stop the car, and put your hands behind your head while awaiting arrest!"

In a good mood, Roy began to imitate police officers from movies and TV shows, issuing warnings to Milton.

Milton, his face tense, steered the car directly at Bumblebee.

However, Bumblebee reacted very quickly, suddenly slowing down and thwarting Milton's plan, almost causing the muscle car to drive off the road.

Fortunately, this is the vast North American Great Plains, where there are no guardrails or anything like that.

"Hey, you're suspected of dangerous driving. If you don't stop, I'm going to pull you over!"

Roy really wanted to try out the American-style stop, but Milton didn't seem to want to give him that chance. The guy pulled out a pistol and shot Roy.

Piper, sitting in the passenger seat, was terrified because her position, between Roy and Milton, made her an easy target for accidental bullets.

"Don't be afraid, the glass is bulletproof!"

Are you kidding me? How could Bumblebee's glass possibly be shattered by a regular handgun?

Milton fired several shots, but there wasn't even a crack in Bumblebee's glass.

This scene was clearly beyond Milton's expectations; he probably had never seen glass with such good bulletproof protection before.

Even bulletproof glass will crack if shot at such close range by a handgun.

Most bulletproof glass currently on the market cannot stop bullets if they are fired at the same spot repeatedly.

Seeing this, Piper breathed a sigh of relief, but then she felt extremely excited.

The scene before her eyes was as exciting as a Hollywood blockbuster, which was incredibly thrilling for a girl born in a small town in central America who had never seen the world before.

Piper's adrenaline surged, and his cheeks and neck turned red.

These are the basic characteristics of white people; otherwise, why would traditional white people in Texas be called rednecks?
Seeing that the pistol had no effect, Milton pulled out a peculiar five-barreled revolver.

This five-barreled revolver has a very classic design, resembling a design from the 19th century, when multi-barreled guns were very popular.

The grip was made of white ivory and had some peculiar patterns on it. Unfortunately, Milton was holding the grip, and Roy couldn't see the patterns on the grip of this five-barreled revolver.

However, Roy did manage to see the patterns engraved on each gun barrel clearly.

(Ultimate weapon "Godslayer")
This is... the All-Seeing Eye?
The All-Seeing Eye, also known as the Eye of God or the All-Knowing Eye, represents God's all-seeing eye over humanity. It is well-known because it appears on the coat of arms of America and the back of the one-dollar bill.

The most common design is an eye surrounded by a triangle. Different versions may add different elements, but the triangle and eye are the most basic shapes.

Due to artistic embellishment in some films and television shows, this symbol has become synonymous with many conspiracy theories, the most common being those about the mysterious Freemasons.

But in fact, this all-seeing eye should have originated from the Eye of Horus in Egyptian mythology.

(Eye of Horus)

From the late Middle Ages and beginning of the Renaissance, many works of art and religious texts mentioned the combination of a triangle and an eye.

The triangle represents the Triune Christ, while the eyes represent God, who is always watching over humanity.

Well, God is actually the old man in the monitoring room.

At the time, many societies used the All-Seeing Eye as their symbol, which was a kind of popular trend. However, after some conspiracy theories and artistic embellishments, this symbol became completely associated with Freemasonry.

(I originally posted one image of the All-Seeing Eye, but two images in a row were approved. If you're interested, search for it yourself.)

Is this gun the so-called ultimate weapon?

Wolf Jackson was somewhat evasive about the Spirit Police Department's ultimate weapon, only saying that Roy would recognize it once he saw it.

However, Roy only felt that Milton's five-barreled revolver had a unique design, and did not feel that the gun deserved the title of the ultimate weapon.

Roy thought that since it was called the ultimate weapon, it should at least be on par with the Leviathan Axe, right?

Or is it that my expectations are too high?

However, the moment Milton pulled the trigger, Roy immediately felt a strong sense of threat.

"Lie down!"

Roy violently lay down and pulled Piper's chair over as well.

With their lightning-fast reflexes, Roy and Piper managed to dodge the bullets from the five-barreled revolver, but Bumblebee wasn't so lucky.

Not only were the windows on both sides shattered, but the car's interior also suffered extensive damage.

The heavily damaged Bumblebee's speed dropped drastically.

"Mr. Blake, I'm injured!"

"Bumblebee, can you hold on?"

"can!"

However, Roy had already seen through Bumblebee's predicament. Milton's five-barreled revolver looked ordinary, but its power was terrifying when it was fired.

The bullet was fired at Roy's head, but the shockwave alone damaged Bumblebee's interior. Piper would likely have died on the spot if not for Roy's power protecting him.

"Bumblebee, don't push yourself, let's stop the car!"

Bumblebee is too big to dodge a five-barreled revolver bullet; if it gets shot in the front, it might die.

Roy had a feeling that even with his current abilities, which were at their limit on Earth, being shot by this bullet might also cause him serious injury.

"No wonder it's called the ultimate weapon. Could that gun really be related to Grandpa Ye?"

Roy watched the old muscle car drive away with interest.

Even the most powerful weapon depends on who wields it. Even if Roy gave the Leviathan Axe to Piper, Piper wouldn't be able to harm him.

Piper couldn't even lift the Leviathan Axe.

Milton is just a resurrected undead, so dealing with him isn't actually that difficult.

Bumblebee slowly came to a stop, and Roy and Piper got out of the car.

"Um, Mr. Roy, what do we do now?"

Piper was still somewhat shaken, clearly frightened by what had just happened.

While Hollywood movies are thrilling and exciting, the experience of actually being in them isn't so pleasant for ordinary people.

After all, not everyone has the protagonist's halo.

"No problem. Bumblebee, can you get back to Fallstown by yourself?"

"My sensor seems to be malfunctioning, but a slower speed shouldn't be a big problem."

"Alright, you can take this lady back to Fallstown. I'll summon Claudia to continue tracking that guy."

As he spoke, Roy prepared to use the branding magic to summon Claudia.

However, Piper seems to have a different opinion.

"Mr. Roy, may I come with you?"

Roy looked at the blonde beauty with surprise.

"Why are you following me? Didn't you notice the danger just now? Let's go to Waterfall Town. It's my hometown, and it's very safe there."

Piper was indeed somewhat afraid of the shot Milton had just fired, but the blonde beauty had a rather stubborn personality.

"But I want to follow you!"

At this moment, Roy had successfully summoned Claudia, and a blue compact sports motorcycle appeared in front of him.

Are you sure? You might die!

Roy casually lifted Piper's delicate chin, and the other's cheeks instantly turned red.

Sometimes, being too charming is just like that; women always seem to inexplicably flock to Roy.

"me……"

"Take your time thinking about it. I'm leaving now."

Roy walked over to Claudia and straddled her.

"Roy, it's been so long!"

"Long time no see indeed."

Compared to Bumblebee, Claudia's relationship with Roy is clearly much closer. After all, this female Cybertronian bears Roy's mark, and he even examined her mechanical structure back then.

At that moment, Piper suddenly sat on the back of the motorcycle and hugged Roy tightly.

Roy looked at Piper in surprise; this blonde woman was truly fearless!
"I've decided to be with you!"

Piper's face displayed a wildness and stubbornness typical of American women, making her stance clear.

Roy has never liked to give advice to others.

"This road won't be easy, I hope you won't regret it. Claudia, let's go!"

"Okay, Roy!"

Claudia suddenly accelerated, causing Piper to slam hard into Roy's back.

"what--"

This American-style airbag is really powerful, giving Roy an unparalleled feeling of being pushed back in his seat.

Claudia's speed quickly increased to 300 miles per hour. This speed would be fine if she were sitting in a car, since the car body and glass would block the wind.

However, reaching that speed on a motorcycle is truly torture for ordinary people.

Roy didn't care, after all, his top speed was already over Mach 50, so 300 mph was just a small speed.

Piper, however, was struggling. She felt like she was about to fly away and could only hold onto Roy's waist with all her might to avoid being thrown off.

Piper screamed the whole way, while Roy laughed wildly as the blue motocross motorcycle roared past on the highway.

The old muscle car arrived at a gas station built on the side of the highway shortly after shaking off Roy.

An old man was lying on the roof of a gas station, shooting at the zombies around him with a shotgun equipped with a scope.

"Huh, does someone seem to be coming?"

Zombies certainly can't drive, and most undead bodies aren't strong enough to drive cars.

So if you see someone driving a car in the apocalypse, they are basically normal humans.

Out of goodwill, the old man stood up and waved in the direction of the old-fashioned muscle car.

"Hey, there are no more supplies here, let's go!"

At this moment, the man who stepped out of the old muscle car shocked the old man.

"Milton? Have you been resurrected too?"

"Waveber, it's me! I have indeed been resurrected!"

The old man nimbly climbed down the ladder from the roof and excitedly walked to Milton's side.

"You actually came back to life! My God, I still remember how I buried you ten years ago!"

Milton looked to be around fifty years old, while Weber looked much older, with white hair and a face full of wrinkles.

Who would have thought that these two people are actually the same age?
"Thank goodness I was resurrected, otherwise I wouldn't have known that such a terrible thing had happened."

Milton's expression was terrifying, which puzzled Webber.

"what's going on?"

“My daughter Rose was sacrificed by a cult leader, and her soul is suffering in a terrible place. My granddaughter has also been kidnapped by that damned cult leader!”

Weber's eyes widened.

"How could this happen? Damn it! Who did this?!"

"Do you know Joan of the Cult of Fear?"

"That cult operating on the border of Kansas and Missouri? Those bastards tried to rob my gas station the other day! Luckily, I had plenty of weapons on hand!"

"Weber, I've come to you this time because I want to get some weapons to deal with those beasts!"

In the apocalypse, weapons and food are always the most valuable things. Although Milton has the ultimate weapon, it can't be fired too many times, so he still needs some ordinary weapons.

"No problem! Milton, let's team up and make something of it!"
