The melodious hymns echoed above the church, intertwining with the chaotic scenes within the seaside town, creating an eerie atmosphere.
Adrian, amidst it all, found his soul seemingly cleansed by the hymns, recalling the teachings in the Bible.
Life and death are actually unimportant; everywhere is the Lord's pasture. These sacrificed townsfolk have merely returned early to the Lord's embrace.
After the hymns ended, Anluoke surveyed the crowd and softly spoke.
"The great Eternal God 'Ella' will be with you and me!"
Perhaps it was the Archbishop's words taking effect, or maybe it was the light of 'Ella' that had already shone upon this remote small town. Outside the church, the chaotic scenes were rapidly calming down.
Slightly surprised, Anluoke walked to the window and looked down at the entire northwest side of the seaside town. The flames that had been burning over the granary were extinguished, and the townsfolk were being orderly evacuated from the combat area.
