American Horror Story, Starting from Falls Town

"I think it's somewhere around here."

After dealing with Alma, Roy took Michael and Uriel to find the last Nephilim.

After Alma took control of the bottom of Hell, she carried out a massive transformation of the place.

This place is no longer a dark place filled with dust, but has become a sunny world full of flowers and many cute little animals.

If Roy hadn't been certain he was at the bottom of hell, he would have thought he'd arrived in paradise.

However, this change made it easier for Roy and his companions to find their way. Otherwise, in the pitch-black environment they had before, it would have been very difficult to find the last Nephilim.

Soon, Roy and his companions discovered the skeleton of some enormous creature, where the old Nephilim lived.

"Sir? Sir? Are you home?"

"Why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf!"

The blind old man emerged from under the skeleton, but when he sniffed the air, he seemed to detect a strange smell, and his expression changed drastically.

"You little brat, how did you manage to bring two angels? And not just any angels! I remember them, Michael and Uriel!"

Michael and Uriel exchanged a glance. The old man had guessed their identities just by their scent, which meant that he had indeed participated in the rebellion ten thousand years ago, and he might really know where the door that Nephilim had prepared was.

However, Roy thought of something else: the Nephilim were wiped out by Lucifer and Samael. Although these two were now demon lords of Hell, the blame should still fall on the angels.

Sure enough, after smelling the two angels, the old man immediately returned to the skeleton in a huff and stopped talking to Roy.

"Why is he gone?"

Michael wanted to follow, but Roy stopped her.

"Ms. Michael, you two had better not go over there!"

Michael looked at Roy strangely.

"why is that?"

"The Nephilim were exterminated by Lucifer and Samael, who were acting on God's orders. I think this last Nephilim must have deeply hated the angels from heaven!"

Upon hearing this, Uriel nodded.

“Indeed, if Michael and I go in, it might further provoke him. Mr. Black, I think I can only rely on you to find that door. Michael and I will wait for you outside.”

Roy scratched his head.

"I can only try my best."

If Michael and Uriel weren't recognized by the old man, Roy felt he had a pretty good chance of winning.

But now...

After Roy walked under the giant skeleton, he could still hear the old man cursing and swearing, saying that it was outrageous for Roy to bring an angel to him.

Roy could only scratch his head in response; he admitted that he hadn't thought this through.

"Sir, we actually have something important we need your help with."

The old man turned around and glared at Roy.

"I will absolutely not help the angels, absolutely not! Get them out of here!"

Seeing the old man's uncooperative attitude, Roy felt very helpless.

"Sir, this isn't just helping angels, it's helping everyone! Extraterrestrial evil gods are currently invading our world, and Heaven is just one of them. If we don't stop these extraterrestrial evil gods, Heaven, Earth, and Hell will all be destroyed!"

The old man continued carving words on the bone without turning his head.

Do you think I still care about destruction?

Indeed, the Nephilim were extinct, so this old man had nothing to worry about. What did the destruction of the world have to do with him?

Roy was speechless for a moment, unsure how to persuade the old man.

Nowadays, elderly people probably don't care about anything anymore. Whether they live or die has no meaning for them. So how can you get them to reveal that secret?

Roy began to think from the old man's perspective, considering how he could persuade him.

Without a doubt, the person Nephilim hated most was God, and perhaps Lucifer was second.

God originally commanded the extermination of the Nephilim, and Lucifer was the one who carried out the order; the other angels were perhaps just part of the group that hated the Nephilim as well.

At the same time, the old man must also hate the evil gods from beyond the realm. It was because of the evil gods from beyond the realm that the Naphites were led to their extinction.

Hiss! Now that the two people they hate most are fighting, it's a miracle the old man isn't laughing out loud, let alone helping.

No! There are still ways to persuade the elderly.

Roy's expression changed, but in order to save the world, he decided to sacrifice his precious reputation.

"Old sir, do you know why I helped Michael and Uriel?"

"I do not want to know."

Even though the old man didn't want to know, Roy still told him.

"Because they are my women."

These words made the old man Nephilim pause in his actions, and after a long while he turned to look at Roy.

"You've taken care of two of the four archangels? That's impossible!"

Roy's words were indeed absurd, but the old man quickly realized the problem and began to refute himself.

“No! I can indeed smell Michael’s scent on you. Your angelic blood comes from Michael. If you are not Michael’s offspring, then it means you have indeed obtained Michael’s blood…”

The old man began to talk to himself rapidly, his language interspersed with slang that Roy couldn't understand at all, which was probably the language of the Nephilim.

"Old sir, if you don't believe me, I can bring them over to prove it!"

Upon hearing this, the old man stared intently at Roy with his dark, hollow eyes.

"Prove it to me! If you can prove it, I'll help you!"

"I will be right back!"

Roy ran outside the skeleton, and the anxious Michael and Uriel immediately questioned him.

"How's the situation? Did you find out where that door is?"

Roy scratched his head.

“The problem now is that the old man hates God and Heaven very much. He has to see my blasphemous behavior before he will help me.”

"An act of blasphemy?"

Michael hadn't quite understood yet, but Uriel seemed to realize something, and his cheeks flushed red.

"Mr. Black, you're not joking, are you?"

Roy spread his hands helplessly.

How could I possibly joke at a time like this?

Michael still didn't understand the situation, so he asked Uriel.

"Uriel, what does this mean?"

Having no other choice, Uriel could only whisper an explanation in Michael's ear.

After hearing Uriel's account, Michael's face instantly turned blood red.

"This, how can this be? This is utterly blasphemous!"

Uriel also looked at Roy. "Roy, isn't there any other way?"

“This is the only way I can think of right now, and the old man has said he’s willing to help me as long as I can prove it. I think he must hate God so much that he wants to see God’s messenger blasphemed.”

Especially since Roy is now considered a Nephilim, he'll definitely make that old Nephilim very happy.

By this time, the old man had already stepped outside the skeleton. Although he had no eyes, Michael and Uriel still felt two sharp gazes.

"Michael, Uriel, you've seen it too. Make a decision quickly; this may be your only chance!"

Michael and Uriel exchanged a glance and fell silent.

This time was a little different from before. Although both archangels had done it with Roy, it was when they were possessing human bodies.

So theoretically, Michael and Uriel's angelic bodies are still pure and flawless, only their souls may have been somewhat polluted.

This can be seen from the fact that Uriel can no longer use the Eye of God; some things have indeed happened.

However, those were all out of desperation. If the two archangels were really forced to do such a thing, they would quickly get over the psychological hurdle.

"Ladies, some sacrifices must be made now!"

These words finally made Michael make a decision. She suddenly hugged Roy and kissed him, but because she had no experience at all, the action felt like she was going to hit Roy on the head.

Roy was so frightened he almost fought back.

Fortunately, Michael's blushing cheeks and trembling eyelids betrayed her panic, and Roy forgave her, guiding her with his extensive kissing experience.

After Michael mustered the courage to act, Uriel also sighed and made his choice.

Because Roy's mouth was currently occupied by Michael, Uriel could only grab Roy's hand and press it against his chest.

These actions were blasphemous to the two angels, but the old man was still not satisfied.

"That's it?"

With a determined look, Roy reached down and placed his hand on Uriel's lower body. This abrupt action made Uriel's eyes widen, and then he went limp and collapsed onto Roy, letting out seductive moans.

At this moment, Uriel recalled what had happened in front of Elizabeth that day, and a strange feeling welled up from the bottom of his heart again.

Michael also recalled that night in the chapel, as if it had just happened yesterday, leaving an unforgettable impression on her.

Just as the three were beginning to lose their senses, a loud shout interrupted them.

"enough!"

At this point, Michael and Uriel's clothes had been partially undone, revealing large swaths of their bodies.

The two archangels, startled awake, quickly straightened their clothes, their cheeks flushed, and dared not look at Roy again.

Roy quickly ran to the old man, Naphri.

"Sir, is it ready?"

The old man looked at Roy with a strange gaze.

"I have no interest in watching you do that kind of thing. Or are you going to put on a show?"

Roy smiled awkwardly.

"Speak, what do you want to ask me?"

"Old sir, I want to know where the door to Paradise that the Nephilim tried to breach is."

"The gate? Is the gate to Heaven broken? Is there no way to return to Heaven normally?"

"Yes, Heaven has been completely blocked, and we want to find other ways to enter Heaven."

Upon hearing this, the old man frowned deeply.

“This is a bit troublesome! More than 10,000 years have passed. Even if I still remember the location of that door, you will have a hard time finding it.”

Over ten thousand years, the world has undergone tremendous changes, including geological shifts and the combined efforts of the East and West to unleash a massive flood that cleansed the world, resulting in dramatic alterations to the global topography.

Finding that door by following the map is indeed very difficult.

"Sir, could you tell me what that door looks like?"

"I might as well tell you. It's a peculiar triangular building, made entirely of obsidian, forming a single, seamless structure."

Hmm! I feel like I've heard this somewhere before!

After going through his memories, Roy quickly recalled something Saltana had mentioned to him: a strange building had been discovered underground in the mental hospital where the Ouroboros newcomer initiation ceremony took place, which seemed very similar to the old man's description (Chapter 399).

(Originally, the Ouroboros and this building were both foreshadowing for the alien arc, but the book went awry too quickly, so now it can only be revisited here.)
"Isn't there a special base on that obsidian triangular door? A base that looks like a pyramid?"

"Yes, have you seen that door?"

The old man looked at Roy in surprise. Roy hadn't expected that he would know about that door, but without the old man's hint, he probably wouldn't have guessed what the door was for.

"Sir, how do I start that door?"

"That door was actually a stargate that I created myself. After the creation of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, I hid the stargate. Opening the stargate is very simple. All you need is Philistine blood and enough energy to open a portal to Heaven."

Taking Philistine blood and energy was no problem for Roy; he immediately prepared to go back to find Michael and Uriel.

"Thank you, sir!"

But at that moment, the old man suddenly grabbed Roy's arm.

"Promise me that you will make those two archangels give birth to the children of the Nephilim!"

"Uh..." Roy scratched his head, unsure how to answer.

"I can only do my best!"

"It can't be 'as much as possible,' it must be 'absolutely necessary'! Once the process of depravity begins, it can never be stopped. I want to see God's most faithful messengers become the Nephilim's breeding machines!"

The old man's words went somewhat against the woman's wishes, but Roy could only agree to appease her for the time being.

"Ok."

At this moment, the old man revealed a mysterious smile.

"Kid, I have to remind you, at your stage you can't make promises lightly! Once you make a promise, the world will naturally develop in the direction you promised, regardless of whether your promise was sincere or not!"

What does this mean? Does it mean that powerful people can change the course of the world with just a few words?

Or……

Roy was about to ask for clarification, but the old man had already turned and walked into the giant skeleton.

Seeing the old man leave, Michael and Uriel immediately flew over.

"Roy, did he tell you the answer?"

Roy quickly snapped out of his daze and nodded.

"Yes, I already know the approximate location of that door."

"Great! Without further ado, let's go find that door right away!"

At this point, both archangels had adjusted their mindset and were no longer as shy as before.

But something had already been planted in the hearts of Michael and Uriel.

As the old man said, once the process of depravity begins, it is virtually impossible to stop until it hits rock bottom and bounces back.
