Chapter 1861: Human Hearts Are Never Satisfied
Hells paused and said, "Dark Power is very powerful, and it is relatively easy to obtain. For a person to believe in the Lord, they need to constantly temper their own will, but to make them succumb to the darkness is merely a matter of an instant, so Dark Power has become the power they urgently need."
"Human hearts are never satisfied; it is the same everywhere in the world." Chen Yu slowly shook his head: "In the end, it is driven by human desire."
"Yes, it is driven by human desire." Hells revealed a bitter smile: "But what can be done about that? Our Pope and the high-level members of the Church possess unique power."
"They control everything and can decide a person's Life and death. The greater the power, the more their ambition expands; this is a fact that no one can change."
"Do you have anything else you want to entrust?" Chen Yu slowly straightened his body; he felt he had already said enough.
It was impossible for him to forgive Hells, because this guy had harmed too many people; if he let him go, Chen Yu's conscience would not be at ease.
"No more, give me a quick end. If I continue like this, I will turn into a Demon. I think compared to turning into a Demon, death might be a good release." Hells smiled.
"Very well, go in peace. I will settle the children here properly." Chen Yu nodded and pointed his right hand into the void.
A strand of Primordial Qi was emitted from his fingertips, instantly condensing into a vast and mighty force. This force destroyed Hells's vitality completely; he slowly knelt to the ground, and the luster in his eyes slowly faded away.
Slowly exhaling a breath, Chen Yu turned his head and walked toward the back.
He saw that behind the huge statue of the Grim Reaper, there was a stone chamber, but the stone chamber was locked by a massive stone door.
Li Chen took action, slicing the stone door open with a sword, and Chen Yu strode inside.
After walking in, the scene inside made Chen Yu slightly startled.
He saw more than thirty children inside. These children ranged from 6 to 10 years old, and the entire stone chamber was pitch black, with almost no light at all.
A trace of fear flowed in the eyes of these children, because no matter who walked in, their fate would not change, as too many companions had been dragged away by force and never returned.
The person before them was an Easterner; although he was not that terrifying old man, no one knew what the purpose of this Easterner coming here was.
"Don't be afraid, I am here to save you." Chen Yu took a deep breath; he walked into the stone chamber and used his Mental Power to soothe these children.
Under the influence of Chen Yu's Mental Power, the spirits of these children gradually calmed down, and the fear in their eyes also gradually disappeared.
"I will take everyone out, but before that, I need to find a girl named Tina." Chen Yu said: "Does anyone here know her?"
The children looked toward a corner one after another. In the corner, a little girl timidly raised her hand: "That's me."
"Hello Tina, I am a friend of your mother." Chen Yu took out a photo; this photo was exactly a picture of the little girl and her mother: "Your mother asked me to take you away from here."
"Really? Then where is my mother? It's been so many days, and I haven't seen her." Seeing the photo of her mother, the little girl looked up in both shock and joy, her expression one of disbelief.
Because most of the children here did not have mothers, and she had also been locked in here; she had originally thought she would never see her mother again, but she never expected that she would actually be able to see a friend of her mother.
"Of course it's true, but you might not be able to see her for the time being, because she has some things that need to be handled, which will take a very, very long time." Chen Yu did not have the heart to tell her the truth: "But rest assured, she has already arranged everything for you. You come with me, and someone will take care of you in the future."
"Is she... already dead?" The girl's voice became low. In fact, she had already guessed the truth of the matter, and she also knew that the reason Chen Yu did not say it was because he was afraid of making her sad.
But facts are facts, and no one can change this fact.
"This..." Chen Yu was slightly stunned; the children here were much more mature than he had imagined.
After all, they were all seeking survival in the cracks, so their mentalities were much more mature than children from ordinary families. Even if he did not say it, the little girl before him had already guessed what was going on.
"Please, tell me the truth, okay?" The girl pleaded with a face full of sorrow: "I need to know the truth. I want to know, has my mother left, and she can't come back?"
Chen Yu was in Silence for a moment, then slowly nodded: "Yes, she is no longer here, but rest assured, she will go to heaven, because she was kind during her lifetime, so you don't need to worry."
"Yes, she is going to heaven, but I will never see her again." The girl's tears fell; knowing the truth, she was heartbroken.
"Tina, your mother said you are a brave child." Chen Yu leaned down and comforted her softly: "And your mother is still watching you from heaven. I think if she saw you like this now, she would definitely not be happy."
"The road ahead is still very long, and you need to walk it alone. You must let your mother in heaven see your strength. Wipe away your tears, okay?"
"Okay." Tina indeed wiped away her tears, and she nodded heavily: "I will pull myself together, I will be strong, and perhaps one day, I will see her."
"That's right, you must believe that sooner or later, you will see her." Chen Yu smiled and held her hand: "Let's go."
Tina nodded and walked out together with Chen Yu. Chen Yu called for all the children to leave this place.
When they reached the exit, An was still waiting. Seeing Chen Yu come out, he hurriedly went up to meet him: "Mr. Chen, you have come out."
"This is Yilin's child. Take her back and take good care of her. I promised her I would take good care of her daughter; I cannot break my word." Chen Yu said.
"Yes, Mr. Chen." An nodded and took Tina's hand.
"Also, tell your Commander to establish an orphanage specifically to take in homeless children. The children behind me are the first group for the orphanage." Chen Yu pointed to the children behind him.
"No problem, Mr. Chen. General An'er has always been keen on doing charity, and I think he will readily agree to this proposal." An nodded.
"Very well, I leave these children to you." Chen Yu nodded, then said to Tina: "Tina, follow this uncle; he will settle you in properly."
"Thank you, uncle." Tina nodded, and then was taken away from here by An.
