I Became the God of Light

In her thirties, Leah, who was originally fair-skinned and beautiful, now had dark stains on her face, sunken eye sockets, dull hair, and a tired look.

She covered her son Ike's mouth with her right hand and said in a weak voice, "Devin, can we survive to the center of the city?"

Devin took a deep breath and tightened the AK47 in his hand.

He comforted his wife and said, "God will protect us and we will be safe. Believe in me, Leah!"

As he spoke, his right hand found Leah's left hand and held her fingers together.

Leah was a little pessimistic.

She murmured, "Devin, even if we successfully enter, how long can Holy Light City hold on?"

The more she spoke, the more pessimistic she became, with a hint of despair in her voice.

"There is no God in this world, and no one will save us. We will disappear into this world like other dead people..."

It would be great if it was really God, but unfortunately this is a real world.

In her opinion, those things were done by the church to fool people.

Just like the protagonist in a movie, he doesn't exist in reality.

In movies, even in the end of the world, there will always be people who stand up to stop it, or develop something, or even humans mutate and have superpowers...

However, here is the ruthless side of reality. The apocalypse has happened, but no one has stood up, and humans have not mutated. Everything is developing in the worst direction.

The collapse of civilization took only a short time!

"Leah!" Devin shouted, his handsome face full of seriousness, "You have to believe me!"

Leah's eyes met his, and as she looked at them, her desperate heart could not help but be shaken by his firm eyes, and she regained some hope.

After resting for a while, Devin decided to continue setting off with his wife.

"You two need to follow me closely!"

Leah and her ten-year-old son Ike nodded quickly.

After a while, the three of them quietly climbed out of a window, then tried their best to avoid the bugs, and headed towards the center of Holy Light City.

On the road, Devin was walking at the front, looking at the road ahead. His eyes that had always been firm in front of his wife also showed some vulnerability.

He is also afraid, but he cannot be weak in front of his wife and son.

"Holy Light City..."

He murmured in his mind.

Along the way, he clearly had the opportunity to choose a better city, but he still chose this city.

This city where miracles once happened!

During World War II, war engulfed the city until one day the Holy Light fell from the sky.

The light was holy and warm, and had the power to make people repent.

Some people believe that this must be the power of God, who is preventing the war!

With the power of faith, the war in the city subsided and peace came.

Since then, the name of the city has changed. In order to be grateful for the cessation of war and the appearance of miracles, people named the city Holy Light City!

A city with a strong religious atmosphere!

Every year, Christian believers from all over the world come to visit this holy place.

The relationship between these factors also allowed the city to be spared when disaster struck, and a large number of people nearby gathered to protect it.

People regarded it as hope in their hearts, even though the miracle never appeared for decades.

This is how Devin came to this city with his wife and children.

More than four hours later.

The three people, covered with injuries, gasped and came to a place blocked by iron railings and electric grids.

In addition to bugs flying in the sky, cockroaches and ants crawling on the ground, as long as they touch the wire mesh, they will be electrocuted and covered in black smoke.

Of course, there are also some smart cockroaches that try to fly over the power grid, but unfortunately they will be shot and killed by the guards the next second they fly in.

As soon as the three people arrived here, they were quickly discovered by the people inside.

Five men with guns, wearing thick black leather jackets and helmets on their heads, wrapping their bodies tightly, hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

After a while.

A tall middle-aged man with beards said, "Bourne, take them to check."

The young man named Bourne nodded.

On the way, facing the confused Devin and the other three, Bourne started to explain.

Only then did the three of Devin suddenly realize, and then became even more desperate.

It turns out that not only did the bugs get bigger, but anyone who was bitten or scratched had a certain chance of being infected by the virus.

The patient will first have a fever all over his body, then he will sweat and become comatose, and then he will die from the high fever.

And although the symptoms are the same as a fever, they are not, and fever medicine will not have any effect.

At present, effective specific drugs are still being researched. If someone gets sick, they will almost certainly die!

Because the mortality rate is close to 90%!

If it weren't for the low contagiousness, humans might just go extinct!

Hearing this, Devin and the other three felt uneasy and became more desperate.

Leah looked panicked, "Devin, the injuries on our bodies..."

"It'll be okay!" Devin took a deep breath, as if he was comforting Leah, and also seemed to be comforting himself.

From the side, Bourne looked at them with pity.

Although this is only a certain probability, who knows whether any of them will get the disease. As long as one gets it, the family will no longer be complete.

The four of them walked on the clean snow, with the cold wind blowing from time to time.

Devon observed his surroundings.

It has been a long time since the disaster struck, but basic order has been maintained here and the streets are very clean.

only……

"them……"

Glancing at some passers-by, Devin was puzzled to find that those people had anxious faces, as if they were uneasy about something.

At this moment, just as they approached a large square, a burst of shouting came over.

As they got closer, the three of Devin were surprised to see piles of people crowded together, listening to a cleric standing on a high platform wearing a white robe speak.

The clergyman in his fifties shouted, "The world was created by God. God has always loved us and the world. He will not give up on us. We..."

Listening to the speech of the priest in white, a group of people below looked sad, and someone kept saying, "Has a miracle really happened here?"

“Will God really save us?”

People's faces were filled with unconfidence, despair and uneasiness.

Father Stephen on the stage sighed secretly after hearing this.

This wasn't the first time he heard someone ask this question. From everyone's hopeful eyes when the disaster first struck, to their uneasiness now, he could see it all.

He thought that the Lord would never come, and humans would simply become extinct.

"This is probably God's punishment..."

Father Stephen thought pessimistically.

However, although he thought so, he could not say such words, otherwise his heart would completely collapse.

Taking a deep breath, he regained his energy and helped the crowd relieve their stress.

"Yes, God will save us!"

"God once sent the Son of Man down to redeem us, which shows that God has always loved us..."
