Apocalypse Arrival - chapter 237

The corridor of the temple had a high dome, dark and long. On the right side was a row of large and tall stone pillars, and on the left side stood a number of stone statues with wings on their backs and low eyebrows, as if looking sadly at their feet at mortals passing by.

The sunlight at the corner passed through the tall pillars and into the long corridor, as if it had also lost its warmth and became dark and unclear.

Yue Wenhua followed Li Chengzhou.

The footsteps of the two echoed in the empty corridor one after another.

He was very familiar with the figure walking in front. He had walked behind this person countless times, with full of respect and gratitude, magnifying this figure infinitely, and even willing to dedicate his life to this person at any time.

He was once the God in his mind.

How could Yue Wenhua dare to believe that the man he once admired so much was a vicious devil?

“Wenhua?” Li Chengzhou called him.

Yue Wenhua woke up and responded in a low voice.

Li Chengzhou slowed down, “Wenhua, did you come back from Rongcheng? I received news from Rongcheng that those heretics seem to be stranded in Rongcheng and they have done a lot of lively things.”

“Yes, Holy Father, I just wanted to report this to you. I saw with my own eyes that the priests in Rongcheng did not abide by the doctrine and privately traded with demons, encouraging the residents in the base to sacrifice living people every month in exchange for peace.”

Yue Wenhua considered the sentence and looked up at Li Chengzhou with the last hope, “I was arrested and couldn’t stop them. Father, you must punish them for their evil deeds.”

The sunlight outside the corridor shone diagonally on Li Chengzhou’s side face.

When he smiled, his eyes hidden behind the delicate lenses narrowed slightly.

For some reason, Yue Wenhua got goosebumps on his back.

“Wenhua, you are still too young. There are some things you can’t just look at the surface.” Li Chengzhou pushed the gold wire glasses on the bridge of his nose. The lenses refracted the light and shadow and blurred his expression, “Shennai does things for the world. Now that demons in the world are rampant, in order to save more creatures, sometimes we have to make sacrifices.”

“You can understand it, Wenhua, right?” The Holy Father’s smile was the same as before.

Yue Wenhua’s hands behind his back clenched tightly.

He stared at the pattern on the floor tiles, and said in a calm voice, “It turns out that it was like that, I understand.”

Li Chengzhou stretched out his hand and touched his hair, “Good boy, you are so loyal. You will always be favored by God.”

They came to the tightly guarded building.

Passing through a heavily defensive and solid gate, they entered a room that was completely different from the church style and filled with modern equipment.

Yue Wenhua followed behind Li Chengzhou, his gaze swept over those familiar scenes, and there was a burst of chill in his heart.

Excessive precautions outside the door, large-scale scientific research equipment in the building, and researchers in white coats shuttle back and forth. There was also a restricted area with eye-catching signs on that floor, which prohibited anyone from entering.

It was by no means an ordinary medical research institute and relief center.

He had never doubted even after having been there so many times.

Li Chengzhou’s footsteps stopped in front of a huge glass window, Yue Wenhua raised his eyes and looked at the person lying in the sterile room through the glass window.

Just across a thin piece of transparent glass, his brother was lying in a very advanced treatment chamber, his eyes closed, his expression calm, as if he was just falling into an ordinary sleep-if it weren’t for half of his waist, and various tubes were connected to his body.

Yue Wenhua remembered what the woman had said.

Do you know what the so-called Holy Blood of Shennai is made of?

His brother was sold by someone else, and he was still counting money for them.

At the moment, Li Chengzhou stood beside him, his eyes glimpsed from the long narrow eyes, as if watching his reaction.

Yue Wenhua turned around like in the past and bowed to him.

Li Chengzhou looked at him for a while, and suddenly said? “Wenhua, I think we have a common goal. I always hope that Shennai can be known to the world. Only if all people believe in God can we resist the demons together. Only then could this fallen world be saved, right?”

Yue Wenhua nodded stiffly, his heart pounding. It seemed peaceful at the moment, but if he did not control it and raised Li Chengzhou’s suspicion, he and his brother could only be buried there with hatred.

“I will follow your teachings. I belong to God,” he was as pious and respectful as in the past, only he knew that his clothes were soaked in cold sweat.

Li Chengzhou watched his every move, “For this goal, we don’t hesitate to make any sacrifices. You and I, as well as the many brothers in the church, are ready to dedicate our lives to the Lord at any time, aren’t we?”

“Yes, I am willing to dedicate everything I have to God at any time.”

‘I am willing to give everything for my faith, but if someone uses faith to deceive others and deprive others of their lives arbitrarily, this faith will no longer be my faith,’ Yue Wenhua lowered his head.

Li Chengzhou looked at him carefully for a moment. Whe he did not see any flaws on his face, he finally believed for the time being that the simple and straightforward child had not changed. He smiled and personally led Yue Wenhua out of the heavily guarded building.

In the middle of the night, the busy research institute was completely quiet during the day.

The room where the sterile room was located was slightly lit with night lights, illuminating the silhouettes of those large equipment.
