Struggle in the Steam Age - Chapter 697
Just when Lawrence and Nora were flying around this kingdom of God and patrolling the kingdom of God. The little doll stopped suddenly and looked at his temple.
“What happened?” Lawrence looked at the little doll beside him and said, “What happened to the temple above?” “I feel that my first Holy Spirit is about to be born.”
A look of shock appeared on Nora’s face. “This is much faster than I thought before.”
“I remember that the time when the jackals believed in you was not too short. Although most people are still in the stage of turning their beliefs, it is not uncommon for one or two extremely devout believers to appear.”
“No, it’s not a jackal.” The little doll said after shaking his head at Lawrence. “I can feel that the existence that is coming to my kingdom soon is a human being, not a jackal.”
“It’s totally unscientific.” Lawrence’s eyes widened sharply when the little doll said that. “You can spread your faith in the human world in about a week now, how could it be—”
“So I think it’s a little weird.” Nora shook her head lightly, and then showed a very excited look on her face as if thinking of something.
“I heard from those gods that the kind of believer who fits well with the gods is very rare, so I didn’t expect this just now. But now it seems that maybe I really met such a rare believer.”
Realizing the peculiarities of this situation, Lawrence and Nora immediately came to the side of the temple’s reincarnation pool, and then traced back to the power of faith to check the past——
This is in a ward of the New Sauer Harbor Hospital on New Shaoer Island. An elderly man in his seventies or eighties is lying in a hospital bed.
Judging from the old man’s weak breathing and pale skin, the old man’s life has come to an end, and the time he can stay in this world may only be measured in minutes.
“My grandfather—” a young man sitting on the bedside chair immediately stood up and asked after looking at the doctor who came for the round.
“Sorry, there is nothing we can do.” The doctor in a white coat shook his head and said. “Your grandfather suffered too much when he was young, and his body is too weak—”
“Yes, doctor, our whole family knows this. But my grandfather has paid so much for this family, but I didn’t expect to come here just to enjoy the blessings for a few months—” the young man said, covering himself. He sobbed.
In fact, since the old man was hospitalized more than two weeks ago, relatives of these old people probably guessed the current situation, but people will always feel unwilling in this situation.
“I know, this situation is really unacceptable.” This doctor has been in this industry for several years, so there are many life and death stories. So he soon asked his family members what to do next.
“But this is the case now, so I suggest you better prepare for the last thing now.”
The old man lying on the bed was called Hans, a new immigrant from the Algarve Empire in the south, and he had been a serf responsible for winemaking in a manor before he came to the island.
If nothing happened, he would work to death in this manor, and let his sons and grandchildren serve the manor from generation to generation.
But as the civil war broke out again in the empire, their manor was captured by a warlord, and their family was lucky enough to escape because the place they lived was biased enough, and then boarded a small fishing boat to New Sauer Island.
After arriving on the island, he was naturally given preferential treatment because he mastered certain skills. Especially after the bank was built, their family took out a low-interest loan and opened a tavern.
Since the island is now in a stage where everything is being created, such a tavern is very popular.
In just a few months, they successfully turned this tavern into one of the most popular taverns in the local area, and the loan seemed to be paid off quickly.
But at this time, Hans unfortunately fell down due to previous injuries. During the time he entered the hospital for treatment, Nora ignited the sacred fire smoothly.
Out of gratitude to Lawrence, he began to offer his faith to the puppet from the heart, and then under the guidance of a missionary church staff, he understood and approved Nora’s teachings.
So at this moment, although he felt that he had no power in his body, he could not even speak with his mouth open. But there is still a certain degree of sobriety in his heart.
“My lord, the great God of Heaven, I am about to die now, and I am leaving this world. Please let me know how to guide me on the path of following you, and accept my soul!”
Hans prayed silently in his heart, he now completely forgot the pain in his body, and focused all his attention on this prayer.
Although he had believed in his gods before, but those gods did not save him from suffering. Therefore, after starting a new life for the whole family on New Sauer Island, he immediately strengthened his faith in Nora.
This time, the reason why Hans fell ill was related to the one-time outburst of old injuries on his body. So he can feel all kinds of ailments in his body.
But after he prayed to Nora for the first time, he unexpectedly discovered that the pain and suffocation in his body had alleviated, and the whole person was also much more comfortable.
Since he is immobile on the bed like a vegetative now, he has nothing to do. So I simply put all my energy and time on prayer.
With the prayers over and over again, the concentration of his faith has greatly increased, and in just a few days it can match the prayers of other numbers of years or even decades.
Because of this, Nora noticed his existence just now. Because nothing happened right now, she simply returned from the kingdom of God with Lawrence, and then simply changed clothes and went to the hospital.
“It’s nice to meet you, sir.” After watching Lawrence, who was wearing a religious costume, appeared at the door of the ward, the doctor who was comforting his family before immediately bowed to Lawrence.
“Well, I’m here to pray for a believer’s deathbed.” Lawrence nodded slightly in return, “Where is the patient named Hans?”
“He’s on the bed in this ward.” The doctor pointed to a bed at the innermost window of the room and said, Lawrence turned slightly to his side and saw a bunch of people around there.
“We have tried our best to treat, but his body is too weak. UU read www.uukanshu.com so that we did almost all the means but still did not save his life.” The doctor reported to Lawrence Report. .
“Because he volunteered to be a tester of our new therapy, we tested intravenous drugs and nutritional supplements on him.”
“It now appears that although these measures have not been able to save his life, they have succeeded in prolonging his survival time and alleviating all kinds of pain in him during this period.”
“This is indeed good news, so we also need to thank him for his contribution to the development of medicine.” Lawrence nodded.
This is the important reason why an ordinary immigrant can live in this top ward, because he is now a volunteer in a medical trial on the island.
With that, Lawrence walked to the hospital bed and bent down to look at Hans with his eyes closed, and then said: “Hans, I am Nora’s hands and eyes in the world. Do you have any last wishes now?”
“Grandfather, now–” the young man who was in bed here before listened to Lawrence’s words and replied, but before he could finish his words, a middle-aged woman whispered in exclamation, “Dad-Dad He opened his eyes!”
