enter through the narro gate. for idea is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destortion, and many enter through it.

but small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to lie, and only a e ind it.

(You must enter the narrow door. For the door leading to the destruction is spacious, the road is large, and there are many people entering. But the door leading to the eternal life is narrow, and there are not many people who can find it.)

This is ho it ill be at the end o the age. the angels ill e and separate the iked orm the rightious.

(When the end of the world comes, the angels should separate the righteous from the wicked)

All excerpted from the New Testament Matthew

On the candle wick, a burning match was re-ignited.

A vigorous and powerful hand raised the match and waved it a few times, extinguishing the fireworks on the match.

The light drove the darkness away from the room little by little, and then the appearance of Jesus Christ re-emerged into the priest's eyes. No matter how the world changes, the Savior is still on the cross, replacing the worldly beings and bearing original sin.

He raised the candle high and looked at the Lord he believed in.

That will give him confidence and strength.

Just as he resolutely decided to devote the rest of his life to Jesus Christ when he was ten years old.

The flames of the candle illuminated the priest's handsome face that was enough to fall in love with all living beings. His eyes were rare heterochromatic pupils, red on the left and blue on the right.

His fire also illuminated the mural next to the worship hall. What was painted on the mural were Adam's two sons, Cain and Abel.

The priest's eyes couldn't help but focus on Cain on the mural.

After staring for a long time, he drew a cross on his chest.

The candle's flame suddenly began to sway. Why did wind appear in this unventilated worship hall?

The priest stretched out his palms to protect the candle's flame.

When he raised his head again, he saw a black shadow appearing in the frosted glass outside the worship hall!

And... there is more than one black shadow!

Then, the dark shadows began to pound the frosted glass in the worship hall.

At this time, this scene appeared, but the priest did not show much fear.

He slowly walked towards the frosted glass.

"May I ask...a church member?"

The black shadow outside the frosted glass stopped knocking on the windows, and then said in a completely different American English from the priest’s words, “Is it Father Constantine? Father, please open the door for us!”

"Have you ever been lured by darkness?"

"We seek redemption! We hope to enter the kingdom of heaven! All we believe in is Jesus Christ!"

The priest walked over slowly.

"I will open the door for you, and you will go to the east gate first. But only believers who have never turned their backs on the Lord in their hearts can step into this church."

"We... understand... we only seek a chance to be redeemed..."

Father Constantine walked through the church's corridor and slowly moved towards the east gate.

On the corridor, many nuns' bodies were lying there, their faces were highly decayed, and a large number of flies were even stalked on them. Outside the window, in the dark night sky, even the moon could not be seen, as if a dark curtain had completely devoured the sky. However, Constantine walked past the corpses of the nuns, and every time she walked by, she would take a look.

Finally, he came to the gate east of the church. At this time, he had heard the sound outside the door, which included Italian, French, English, and Chinese!

"Everyone, I'm here."

He spoke British English this time.

In this land called "New England", although his ancestors originally came from England, they have become citizens of this land called the United States of America, so his English is quite stiff.

The door suddenly became boiling.

"Father!"

"Father...please let us in!"

"Father, please open the door! We want to be redeemed!"

Father Constantine took a deep breath, holding the candle in his left hand and exchanging the key in his right hand.

"Whether you can get redemption is not up to me, but by God. Next I will open the door for you, but... please remember that after opening the door and entering here, you must not make loud noises, do not walk around randomly, and do not destroy church tasks. Please remember... What you are going to step into is where God is."

"We understand!"

"it is known!"

"Father, I promise you that no one here dares to do anything that threatens the church! We are mortal enemies with the 'demon'!"

"Okay, please wait."

The priest slowly inserted the key into the keyhole. The key turned left three times, then turned to the right four times... After repeated many times, the door lock was finally opened.

"Welcome to Lakmar Cathedral."

The door was opened. Outside the door, more than twenty people gathered. These people include blond, blue-eyed white people, dark-skinned black people, and Asian faces with yellow skin and dark eyes. They are basically around 20 or 30 years old. Everyone is dressed in rags and looks exhausted.

Then, everyone rushed in.

And when the last person entered, Father Constantine quickly closed the door, then took out the key and locked it quickly!"

Then... the dark room was the only light of the fire on Constantine's hand.

At this time, those who rushed in were relieved and fell to the ground one after another. No one dared to act without permission and stayed in place, waiting for Father Constantine to give instructions.

"Father," among these people, a person with obvious leadership temperament came out, but this person was actually a typical Asian face. "On behalf of everyone, thank you for letting us enter the Cathedral of Lakmar. My name is Glendigny Klein, a punishment knight in the Vatican."

"This is where God is, no matter what identity he is, he is equal."

"Yes...I understand."

"Let's go, look at your appearance, and you've been running all the way, and you haven't had a full meal. Mr. Klein, let me take you to dinner first."

"Thank you, Father!"

When everyone heard this, the people were so tired that they lay on the ground without any image that they had rolled up and stood up, and all thanked the priests loudly. It was obvious that they had not had a good meal for a long time.

"This world is over... We have many companions along the way, but they either die... or choose to be lured and become 'demons'..."

On the way to the restaurant, they also saw the corpse of the nun in the corridor, and were shocked.

"Father...these corpses?" Grandigne was obviously shocked. The visual impact of this picture was too strong.

"Remember... no matter what happens, they are allowed to move their bodies. Don't ask me why, here, everything must be followed by my rules. You should know this when you come to Lakmar Cathedral to seek ‘salvation’."

"Yes... I know that the Pope and the Cardinal have repeatedly told me that in Lakmar Cathedral, everything must be followed by the priest's instructions."

It is approaching May. Although it is not considered hot and hot, it is not too cold, so the corpses have already emitted an unbearable stench. However, Constantine issued an order, so they naturally did not dare to move the corpses. And along the way in the corridor, there were more than a dozen nuns' bodies.

When he arrived at the huge restaurant in the church, Father Constantine lit the candlesticks on the dining table one by one and said, "I'll prepare food for you. Please stay here for a while. It will take about an hour to start your meal. Please wait patiently. Don't leave this restaurant before I come back."

"Father!" Grandigne and a man with the same Asian face stood up and said in unison: "I'll help you!"

The difference is that Glendigne speaks English, while the other Asian man speaks Chinese.

"No need. Remember... until I come back, no one is allowed to leave this restaurant. Even if I am hungry, please be helpless and patient."

Then, Father Constantine walked outside the restaurant and slowly closed the door.
