American Horror Story, Starting from Falls Town

Chapter 127 Strange Dream
After a team of FEAR members entered the underground base and confirmed its safety, FEA agents outside began to enter the underground base in full force.

Then Gerald saw Roy sitting dejected in the corridor and nearly a hundred agents who were knocked unconscious.

Seeing this scene, Gerald and the agents around him almost popped their eyes out.

"Did you do this alone?"

Roy nodded unhappily. He was in a very bad mood because of his headache.

"If it wasn't me who hit them, could it be that they hit each other?"

Gerald noticed that Roy was not in a good state, so he did not get angry because of his harsh tone.

"Mr. Black, you look unwell. Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"No, I'll just go back and rest for a while."

Roy knew that there was nothing wrong with his body, he was just suffering from mental trauma, and going to the hospital would be useless in this situation.

Besides, Roy didn't want to be tested by FEA. The other party's technology was so advanced. What if they found something strange in his genes?
Theoretically speaking, Roy is now a hybrid of humans, demons, and angels, the Nephilim that Lilith mentioned before.

Seeing that Roy did not accept his kindness, Gerald did not say much.

"Mr. Black, thank you very much for your help this time. I will resolve the matter regarding Saltana as soon as possible, and I will pay you an additional 'information fee'!"

Roy raised his eyebrows, not expecting Gerald to be so generous.

But if you think about it carefully, it seems quite reasonable.

Because Roy did a great job in this incident, so far only a few agents were shot, and the most seriously injured was Agent Tom who was shot in the abdomen. The others were just knocked unconscious.

It can be said that the losses of FEA Los Angeles branch were minimized, and Gerald was naturally very grateful to Roy.

If things really get out of hand, Gerald, the person directly responsible, might be directly dismissed from his official position.

However, this is also related to the fact that he likes to go to the front line to command work. If he hides behind and controls remotely like other senior leaders, he can easily pass the buck.

Of course, this time it was also thanks to Gerald's preference for being on the front line that he brought half of the agents out in the morning. Otherwise, if he was also in the underground base, the FEA's command system would be leaderless, and the situation might be even bigger.

"Then I'll go back and rest first."

Waving his hand, Roy was in no mood to chat with Gerald and staggered out of the underground base.

Looking at Roy's receding back, Gerald narrowed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

His face, which resembles Nick Fury's, always makes people feel that he is plotting something when he thinks about it.

"It's a shame. I wish someone with such great abilities was my agent, so I wouldn't have to do it myself. But it would be a good thing if Saltana could come back. Maybe it could change the situation a little bit."

Gerald's thoughts were interrupted by an agent coming up to him.

"Director, the technicians found some abnormal blood in Adela's laptop, and also found abnormal code residue in the mainframe in the computer room!"

Gerald frowned at the agent and frowned.

"Is there such a thing? Seal Adela's laptop and the host computer where the abnormal code was found with the highest standards! No one is allowed to study or decrypt them without my permission!"

"Yes, Chief!"

Roy felt like he was drunk, a feeling he hadn't experienced in a long time. The whole world was spinning and he couldn't even see the numbers clearly.

Roy walked out of the elevator in a daze, not even looking carefully at which floor he was on.

Suddenly someone pulled Roy from behind.

"Sir, this is the 14th floor. No one lives here. Why are you here?"

When I turned around, I saw it was a young waiter. I didn't know if it was an agent in disguise.

Roy broke out in a cold sweat. The room he lived in was 1208, which was only one number away from 1408. If he accidentally broke into that devilish room, he would be in big trouble.

"Thank you! I'm feeling a little unwell. Could you please take me back to my room? My room is 1208."

"Of course, sir!"

With the help of the waiter, Roy finally returned to Suite 1208. This time he looked at the room number carefully and was sure it was not wrong.

Inside the suite, Heather and Penny were surfing the Internet. Suddenly, they saw Roy staggering in and were both startled.

"Roy, what's wrong with you?"

The two girls quickly helped Roy up, but Roy turned around to express his gratitude to the waiter and paid a tip.

Then, Roy sat on the sofa with the help of Heather and Penny.

"I'm fine, just a headache. I'll probably be fine after a good night's sleep."

Roy's spiritual attribute is 34 points, which is relatively high.

This attribute determines Roy's mental strength and the speed of his recovery after mental trauma, so Roy's problem is indeed not big.

It’s just that the feeling of suffering mental trauma for the first time was not pleasant, and Roy was very uncomfortable.

Penny looked at Roy with heartache.

"Roy, are you sick? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

"No, no! Just help me back to bed and sleep."

Roy was so big that Heather and Payne had to help him get onto the bed.

The two girls lay on Roy's left and right, trying to coax him to sleep like they were comforting a sick child.

Penny even hummed a lullaby.

Unfortunately, this girl is beautiful and has a sweet voice. She has also learned dancing and her body flexibility is only second to Jennifer, but she has no musical talent.

Roy felt a little uncomfortable because none of the lullaby he hummed was in tune.

"How can I sleep like this?"

Heather also felt that Penny's lullaby was a little scary, so she quickly stopped her.

"Penny, you'd better stop singing and let me do it!"

Heather used her broad chest as a pillow to hug Roy and massaged his head with both hands in a very professional manner.

Roy soon felt his headache relieved.

"Heather, I didn't know you had this skill!"

"Hehe, actually I learned some nursing and massage when I was in Los Angeles, but I never used them! Do you like it, Roy?"

This is true, because most of the time it was Roy who took the initiative between Heather and Roy. Usually Roy gave Heather a massage, and after the massage, Heather didn't have the energy to help Roy with the massage.

"I like it very much..."

Roy's voice grew softer.

"Then I'll give you more massages from now on!"

Roy didn't answer, and only then did Heather realize that Roy had fallen asleep under her massage.

However, Heather did not stop the massage and continued to press Roy's scalp rhythmically so that he could enjoy it even in his sleep.

Penny looked at Heather's skillful technique with some envy.

"Heather, can you teach me this?" "Of course! We are good sisters!"

Heather began to give Penny on-the-spot instruction, and Roy, who was sleeping, was completely unaware of this.

Because of the mental trauma, Roy's sleep quality was a bit poor this time, and his messy dreams were intertwined and very confusing.

Suddenly, Roy had a strange feeling of falling in his dream, as if falling from a great height.

Many people may have this feeling in their sleep, and it may even cause the body to instinctively make some movements.

After falling, Roy's vision suddenly became clear, and he found himself standing in the corridor of the Dolphin Hotel with the elevator behind him.

The floor above the elevator shows that this is the 14th floor.

The 14th floor again?
Roy felt something was strange. He had taken the elevator to the 14th floor inexplicably before, and he also dreamed about the 14th floor in his dream.

Something is wrong!
Roy turned around and pressed the elevator button, wanting to leave this floor, but the elevator did not respond.

This situation made Roy frown.

In Freddy's treasure chest of destiny, Roy obtained a special ability called Nightmare. Because this ability is difficult to use, he has not used it on others so far.

However, Roy had once tested this ability in his dreams, and nightmares allowed him to distinguish between reality and dreams.

For example, after arriving at the hotel corridor, Roy immediately knew that he was dreaming. Normally, people's first reaction would not be like this.

Moreover, after possessing the nightmare ability, Roy was able to change his dreams, but now his ability has inexplicably lost its effect.

There is only one possible reason for this phenomenon, that is, this is not Roy's own dream, he is an outsider!
The nightmare ability can also change other people's dreams, but the owner of the dream has to have no consciousness to control the dream and is in a state of fear. Only then can Roy seize control of the dream.

The problem is, Roy is alone so far, so who is the owner of the dream?

Roy took a step forward.

Because of the special nature of Room 1408, there is actually only one room on this floor, and the doors of other rooms have been converted into walls.

The reason is that they are afraid that other guests staying on the 14th floor may mistakenly enter room 1408.

However, for some unknown reason, FEA allowed the elevator to stop on the 14th floor and did not completely seal off Room 1408.

When Roy walked to the door of Room 1408, the door suddenly opened a crack automatically, as if wanting Roy to go in.

Now it can be confirmed that the person dreaming was not someone, but most likely room 1408.

It may sound strange that a room can dream, but in the movie "1408", this room does seem to have self-awareness, able to read the memories of the occupants and create a real illusion that makes people collapse.

But what puzzled Roy was why he entered 1408's dream without activating his nightmare ability?

Could it be that he had suffered a mental trauma, or in the words of the K-series, his San value had been completely lost?
Roy couldn't be sure.

At this moment, some faint whispers suddenly came from the crack of the door. The voice was very seductive, as if a beautiful woman was calling Roy in.

Roy couldn't help but reach out and grab the door handle, then he gritted his teeth and exerted force to close the door completely.

Do you want to seduce yourself with just the voice of a beautiful woman?

After all, the succubus Adela had to use several abilities to make Roy lose control.

However, after the door was closed, Roy still had to find a way to leave the corridor. He began to try to use his nightmare ability to break the wall and leave, but he was a little worried that after the wall was broken, he would directly enter room 1408.

It seems that I can only wait for external influences to wake me up.

Roy returned to the elevator door and sat cross-legged, waiting bored.

During this period, the door of Room 1408 was opened repeatedly, using various methods to lure Roy in.

Including but not limited to the voices of the women around Roy, the original owner's parents, and even the voices of the horror movie villains he killed.

Unfortunately, Roy knew it was a dream, so he didn't fall for it at all.

I don’t know how long I waited, but the elevator in the dream suddenly started running. It slowly rose from the first floor, and it seemed like someone was coming up.

Could it be that someone else has entered this dream?

5, 6...10, 11...

Just as Roy was about to see who was in the elevator, he suddenly heard a cell phone ringing above his head. Then his consciousness began to rise rapidly, and he soon left the dream of 1408.

Roy was almost able to see who the person was, but it would be nice to be able to leave this damn place.

Opening his eyes, Roy found that it was already pitch black outside the window. It was obviously night.

He was still resting his head on the soft and comfortable airbag, but it seemed a little smaller because it was Penny who was serving as Roy's pillow now.

The two girls seemed to stay with Roy throughout his sleep, taking turns massaging his head.

But maybe because I was with him for too long, I fell asleep.

The sound of the cell phone also woke up Penny and Heather, and the two girls rubbed their eyes.

"Roy, are you awake? How do you feel now?"

"I feel much better! At least back to 80%!"

Roy picked up the phone and glanced at the screen, which showed Saltana's number.

The time on his phone showed that it was already ten o'clock in the evening. He had slept for about eight hours.

"That's good!"

Penny rubbed her eyes for a moment and then yawned again.

The two girls served Roy for several hours, probably because they hadn't gotten enough sleep.

"You two go back to sleep. I'm going out to answer a phone call."

Heather and Penny nodded sleepily and cuddled together to continue sleeping.

Roy walked out of the bedroom with his coat and answered Saltana's call.

"Hey, Sister Saltana, why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

"Can't I call you?"

Saltana on the other end of the phone sounded relaxed and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Of course not. Sister Saltana called me and I was so happy!"

Roy sat on the sofa, picked up the remote control and turned on the TV. He changed several channels but there were no good programs.

It’s a pity that the “Night Owl” show is not on tonight. Roy wants to see what urban legends will be revealed on the show.

"Humph! You only know how to say nice things. I don't know what you were doing when you answered the phone so slowly just now!"

"Of course I miss you, Sister Saltana!"

This kind of corny love talk finally made Saltana unable to hold back, and she burst out laughing.

"How corny! Are you free now? Let's have a drink."

Here is a still from the corridor of the Dolphin Hotel
