Randall showed a puzzled look: "What are you talking about?"

Aldenan jumped down the skylight in a panic, stumbled to Randall, and shouted: "Hurry up! It's too late!"

Carroll grabbed Aldenan by the neck and pressed him under his arm: "Calm down, speak slowly!"

Aldenan's face was pale, just about to speak, a roar like a tsunami, from far to near, getting louder and louder.

Feeling the vibration of the ground, Carol swallowed nervously: "I have a bad feeling."

Bourville, who was guarding the gate, suddenly said: "The group of people are back."

"The group of people?"

Randall turned his head to see that the group of church soldiers who had fled just now were running back to the promenade in a panic.

Carroll looked at the group of soldiers who had fled to him, and whispered, "It seems that something is chasing them."

As soon as the voice fell, a humanoid monster appeared at the end of the corridor.

This monster is wearing the robe of a church deacon and holding a blood-stained Bible in his hand. It looks like a human being, but his whole body is covered with thick black parasites, his skin and flesh have long been invisible. Out of the original shape.

"The Dragon God is up! What the **** is that!" Bourville opened his bull's eyes, his face full of disbelief.

Carroll opened his mouth in surprise and murmured, "It looks like it's a human, at least, it used to be."

Soon, more and more parasitic zombies appeared on the promenade, some of them were wearing gorgeous noble costumes, and some looked like ordinary citizens.

When Barbara found a baby possessed by a black parasite among the monsters, she couldn't help but squatted in the corner and vomited.

Soon, hundreds of zombies poured into the corridor, looking from a distance, like a black "sea of ​​insects."

A zombie running in the forefront swooped towards the escaped soldier and knocked an unlucky ghost who could not dodge to the ground.

Hundreds of parasites burrowed out of the zombies, and with the heart-piercing screams, they penetrated into the soldiers' bodies alive.

Another soldier saw this scene, hesitated for a moment, then took a long sword and chopped off half of the zombie's head, intending to save his comrade-in-arms.

Black blood spattered from the zombie's wound and directly fell on the soldier's body. These "black blood" seemed to have life, penetrated into the armor and clothes, and directly entered the victim's body.

Only half a minute later, parasites began to grow crazily in the victim's body. These parasites emerged from the body's eye sockets, mouth, ears...all the outlets, twisting and dancing in mid-air.

The stunned Randall suddenly reacted, and he immediately ordered: "Close the door! Use obstacles to block the door!"

Watching Carroll and Bulville begin to close the door, Randall turned to the children behind him and said loudly, "Hurry up! Leave all your personal belongings! Get into the tunnel as fast as you can!"

"Father Pedro! Father Pedro! Did you hear that?!"

Randall yelled twice, but no one answered.

Soon, Randall found Pedro, who was distraught, beside a pillar, and beside him was a girl who was crying in a low voice.

Seeing Randall, a smile appeared on Pedro's pale face: "Today is not my lucky day."

Randall slowly opened Pedro's coat, and the dazzling blood on the opponent's chest made him take a breath.

"How...how could you?"

Pedro sighed slightly: "When those people fired the gun, there happened to be a piece of shrapnel..."

The girl beside Pedro cried and said, "No, the priest is to save me..."

Pedro touched the girl's face: "It's not your fault, go."

Randall frowned and shouted behind him: "Kellogg, come here!"

Soon, the lizardman came to Pedro's side.

After an examination, Kellogg said: "A piece of shrapnel shattered his lung lobe."

"Can it be cured?"

"In Muxicheng, it's not a problem. Here, big trouble." Kellogg looked at the wound again: "I can't save him without the right equipment and medicine."

Randall gritted his teeth and said, "Let's make a stretcher and get him out."

Kellogg shook his head: "Any movement will exacerbate the deterioration of the wound, blood will fill his lungs, and eventually cause suffocation to death."

Seeing Randall still wanting to talk, Pedro struggled to raise his hand and patted the former on the shoulder: "Let me stay."

"Stay? Are you crazy?!"

Pedro smiled and said: "Since I am sensible, I have lived in this city. Everything here is as kind as my hometown. My grandfather and my father are buried here. Never thought of leaving here."

Randall leaned forward and said anxiously: "Did you see the monsters outside? They will rush in here soon! If you walk with us, there is still a glimmer of hope to live..."

Pedro looked at Randall and slowly said: "My child, death is not terrible to me. To live a few more years is just to see the world more. Everyone will eventually follow the same path. What I care about is whether I have fulfilled my mission in this life? After I die, in front of the Lord, can I have a clear conscience?"

Pedro watched the children leave one by one, with a happy smile on his face: "Now I can be sure that in front of God, I can proudly tell him that I have completed my mission."

Randall was stunned by Pedro's words.

The lizard man Kellogg’s face showed a rare touch: "Father Pedro, your piety deserves the highest praise!"

Randall hesitated again and again, and while taking out the dragon badge Todd gave him from his arms, he said to Pedro: "Father, if you insist on staying, then I won't object. This is a token of the Dragon God. , As long as you touch it, your soul after death will enter the kingdom of heaven..."

Pedro looked at the badge and shook his head slightly and said, "Mr. Quincy, I believe you are telling the truth, but I will not touch this badge."

"Why?"

"If I touch it, it would be a denial of my lifelong faith." Pedro took out the cross from his chest: "I never thought of betraying my god, my experience, my suffering, all The trial God arranged for me."

Kellogg spit out the letter to Randall and said: "I can understand the priest's mood. If someone asks me to abandon the Dragon God, it is equivalent to let me give up everything."

Randall put away the badge, glanced at Pedro, and gave up his intention to continue persuading.

Just as Randall turned and was about to leave, Pedro stopped him: "Mr. Quincy, if you are lucky enough to see Lord Aberle, please convey a word for me."

"Please speak."

"The candle will always burn out, but the sun will never go out. Whether it is truth or God, it will always stand by our side."

Randall wrote down these words and saluted Pedro silently.

Soon, all the people in the confession house disappeared into the tunnel entrance...except for the priest who sat in the corner and prayed in a low voice.

Listening to the roars and screams coming from outside the door~lightnovelpub.net~ Looking at the crumbling door, Pedro gently rubbed the cross and said word by word:

"God, in your light, I see the light."

"God, please help us pursue the light and practice the truth."

"God, please teach us so that everyone can see your presence."

"May the Almighty God bless us, protect us from calamity, and lead us to eternal life, amen."

Pedro breathed out softly and whispered: "It's coming soon."

His eyelids are getting heavier and heavier, and his voice is getting smaller and smaller: "It's coming soon."

The cross in the priest's hand fell silently to the ground.

"Here..."
