Chapter 110: I'm Guilty
The aggressive words of his wife and neighbors and their belief in the Lord of the Night weighed heavily on his shoulders, especially his wife's words, which touched Drews even more.
The changes in the people around him made Drews's mentality even more unstable, and he couldn't help but start thinking about it for a while:
Am I really suspicious?
What if the Lord of the Eternal Night is really the same as the Eye of Destruction and the Eerie God of Terror...
But if you don't go, your son may freeze to death!
After hesitating for a long time, Drews gritted his teeth, nodded to his wife and neighbors, and said, "Okay, I'll take Annriken to St. Gray's Church!"
With that, Drews hurried into the tent, picked up Anricon from the bed, and without saying anything to his wife, walked straight out of the door of the almshouse, and disappeared into the snow.
"Daddy, where are we going?"
Listening to his son's voice, Drews endured the chill outside and said with a smile: "Let's go to St. Gray's Church." ”
"Dad, I don't want to go out, it's too cold outside and I can't stand it. ”
"Child, we have gone out to the church of St. Gray, and to ask the two Excellencies of the church of St. Gray to help you pray to the great gods for help to get you out of the cold. ”
Drewth smiled and explained to Enricon, smiling, but there was still a hint of doubt in his eyes.
But now, his doubts will not be easily spoken.
Soon, Drews saw the majestic and magnificent church from afar.
The magnificent church is so tall that every brick and stone bears the traces of time, whether it is the ancient bell, the devotional kagura, or the zenith towering into the clouds... Every bit seems to tell the prosperity of this church, and the majestic palace corridor stretches to the far end, dazzling as far as the eye can see.
From afar, Drews could see the crowd lining up in the palatial streets, and there was no end in sight, but there was a crowd of people as far as the eye could see.
"So many people?"
Drews couldn't help muttering, but due to the large number of people in line, his mentality also changed.
The credibility of the Church of the Eternal Night seems to be getting heavier and heavier in Drews's heart.
"Did you hear that, our well-known entrepreneur in Boston, John Sr., who originally just wanted to go to church to get the blessing of the gods, but as a result, the terminal lung cancer was also purified by the gods. ”
"It's amazing, it's cancer!"
"This is a miracle! The great Lord of the Night, under the crown of a merciful being, is under his protection, and it is under His protection that New York can now develop!"
Drews could only stand in line silently, listening to the chats of the people lining up in front of him, left and right, and his mood became more and more worried.
Unlike Drewth, his son Anriken was particularly excited, and although it was very cold, it was undoubtedly a novelty to listen to the people around him tell him about the deeds of the Lord of the Night.
However, to Drews's surprise, although the line was long, the speed was extremely fast, and Drews only had to wait less than thirty minutes before touching the threshold of St. Gray's Church.
Drews craned his neck and looked inside, and through the half-hidden door, Drews could vaguely see the lights in the church. More than a thousand large candles are lit on the altar. The candles were divided into eight rows, separated by flowers, and the rich aroma of the purest cigarettes erupted from the door of the sanctuary like the whirlpool of the tides.
Drews was amazed by what he saw, he had never seen such a magnificent church, and the scene inside the church was like a dazzling pearl.
Along the way, he was in a daze, until a clear voice interrupted his standing: "What's your name?"
He looked up cautiously, only to see a government worker in a suit and leather shoes, as if he was making a certain distinction for the church.
"Drews, my name is Drews. ”
Drews whispered, "This is my son Ann Ricken, and we live in Ann in the Crotillo district..."
"Without going into details, let's go inside. ”
The government worker in a suit and leather shoes seemed a little irritable. Also, standing here all the time recording the name of every person who comes and goes, everyone will feel irritated.
With the permission of the government staff, Drews cautiously walked into the palatial church, and saw a black-robed missionary who looked quite old.
And around this black-robed missionary, there were seven or eight coarse linen clad disciples, who were strong and looked very energetic.
"Bishop St. Smith!"
The people around him all called the missionary a wave of honorific titles, which also made Drews startled, and hurriedly followed the people around him to shout "Bishop St. Smith" respectfully.
"Hmm. ”
The somewhat old-fashioned-looking Bishop Smith didn't seem to be embarrassed by anything, but saw the Drews father and son at a glance, and he slowly opened his mouth and said, "Wise boy, pray, only the gods can help you." ”
As he spoke, Bishop Smith's palm reached out slightly, touching Enricon's forehead, and the starlight was fleeting.
Following Bishop Smith's orders, Enricon rose from Drews's arms, trembled and fell to his knees on the ground, and began to pray silently.
After a moment of silence, Drews began to pray to His Majesty the Lord of the Night.
"Eternal night is above..."
After about a minute of prayer, at the suggestion of a few congregants, Annriken and Drews finished praying, and Bishop Smith said that you can go home.
Ah, that's it?
Drews was a little dazed, he didn't understand why it was over so quickly, and his son Anriken pulled his sleeve and said happily and happily, "Dad, I don't feel cold anymore, not cold at all!"
Stunned, surprised, and then, Drews seemed to feel a warm feeling in himself.
"Great... It's really... Uh..."
Drews was a little incoherent, and he looked up at the endless line behind him, and tears flowed unconsciously.
With a plop, Drews knelt on the ground and wept silently: "Your Excellency St. Smith, I am guilty! Before I came, I was full of distrust of the great Lord, this is my ignorance, please forgive me for my ignorance, I am willing to serve by the Lord's side!"
"Such a small matter will not be cared for by the merciful Lord. ”
Smith helped Drews up with a pleasant face, and opened his mouth to say, "Since you think you have done something wrong, then volunteer in the church, so that more people can know the name of my lord." ”
"Yes!"
Drewth is nothing more than an abbreviation for the residents of Boston, and there are not a few people who have become believers in the Lord of the Night like this.
Boston's inhabitants began to change their faith towards the Lord of the Night.
