Quadruple split.

Chapter 2334 Jackdaw Castle Chapel

"because I like it!"

With such a simple answer from Mo Tan, who could be considered versatile even among the [Female Bees], Monica, who was sent to carry out such a difficult task, was speechless. She couldn't utter a single word for a long time, giving people a feeling as if she could die at any time.

However, the considerate Mo Tan immediately spoke up to help the lady after realizing her predicament. He gave her a friendly smile and said softly, "You're welcome, dear."

"Uh... um..."

Even Monica could only respond subconsciously at this moment, and then quickly changed the subject, saying seriously: "Well, Mr. Anthony, I think I have almost recovered, how about we talk while walking?"

"Okay, let's keep going inside."

Mo Tan nodded obediently, and then made a "please" gesture to Monica, who was exhausted physically and mentally, but had recovered about 50% of her condition after eating enough. Although she was 100% no match for him, she was not likely to die suddenly. He smiled and said, "Please go ahead."

"what?"

Monica, who had already walked to Mo Tan's side and was about to walk side by side with him, was stunned for a moment, pointing at the tip of her nose and repeating: "Should I go in front?"

"Of course, after all, I don't know if there will be any unknown dangers ahead, but if you go ahead, I will be able to respond in time even if there is any emergency."

Mo Tan smiled slightly and patted Monica's shoulder affectionately: "Otherwise, since we are not related at all, why should I pull you out of that hellhole?"

Monica pulled the corner of her mouth, then obediently walked in front of Mo Tan, and walked deeper into the 'Jackdaw Castle' according to the direction given by the latter, while complaining: "Why do I remember that you were entrusted by His Highness to come here to save me..."

"If you insist on understanding it literally, I really can't refute anything."

Mo Tan still maintained a refreshing and bright smile, and said cheerfully: "But do you really think that your life is worth that guy who specially commissioned me, and then owed such a huge favor to a bitch?"

Monica nodded sadly after hearing the word "bitch", thought about it, and then said firmly: "Impossible!"

"Yes, that is impossible. Your Highness' intention was very clear from the beginning. When elite troops like you have lost contact and their lives are in danger, he chose a more cost-effective person to continue exploring the Dark Swamp."

While admiring Monica's slender but graceful back, Mo Tan said leisurely, "As for the fact that you are still alive... naturally it is not the reason why he specifically came to me, but it is his attempt to convince me that although this area is strange, it is not necessarily very dangerous."

Monica pursed her lips and said helplessly, "I understand the truth, Mr. Anthony, but you can definitely choose a more touching statement."

"It's Xiu's job to impress a loyal dog like you who risked his life for you, not mine."

Mo Tan looked around and said lazily, "My mission is simple. I will help that guy figure out what is going on with this voracious fog in the Shadow Swamp and give him a reason to expand the empire and divert internal conflicts."

"Ah ha ha……"

Perhaps because the topic of the Violet Empire's internal affairs was too sensitive, even though Monica had been following Mo Tan's instructions and was being very "casual", she did not dare to continue being casual. She could only laugh it off, implicitly indicating that she was really not comfortable talking about such topics.

Mo Tan completely ignored Monica's predicament and complained with a subtle expression, "Come to think of it, I remember that guy is still eyeing the Principality of Scarlan, right? With such a big appetite, aren't you afraid of choking yourself?"

"Mr. Anthony..."

Monica sighed and said bluntly: "I can't respond to what you said. How about we change the subject?"

"Okay, then let's talk about the real owner of this land, the secretive [Twilight Crows Eastern Expedition Army] that was so secretive that no one knew about it from its establishment to its annihilation."

Unexpectedly, the easy-going Mo Tan smiled and walked with his hands behind his back in the central area of ​​'Jackdaw Castle', which was in ruins but still vaguely recognizable in its past glory. He said nonchalantly, "For example, the vast majority of members of this army come from the highest violent institution of each sect, the Inquisition, which has an extremely high ratio of fanatics and perverts. Not only that, in addition to the members of the Holy Church Union, which is extremely active on the continent today, even many neutral, chaotic, or evil sects have joined this Eastern Expedition Army. In terms of combat effectiveness alone, it is an armed force that is enough to make other countries lose their composure even now."

Monica, who was indeed quite interested in the background story here, nodded slightly and said in sudden realization: "I see! It feels so amazing!"

"Ah."

In the end, Mo Tan sneered and shook his head, saying, "Not necessarily that powerful. After all, no one in this team returned to their respective sects alive. As for the [God-Destroying Society] that was buried in history with them... they are just a bunch of second-rate people who took advantage of the intrigues of those charlatans to do some sneaky things. They are not presentable."

Although it was difficult to imagine what position Mr. Tan Mo had in saying this, Monica, who had a certain understanding of Regent Xiu Blaysen, was not surprised by this. After all, as a member of the Regent's direct unit [Female Bee], she lacked reverence for most things, especially "historical figures".

In the final analysis, it was because since the establishment of the Violet Empire, the Bressen family had produced many well-known "virtuous kings" and "wise kings", but there had never been someone like Xiu. For the [Female Bee], a simple comparison would make her realize how useless those famous kings in history were.

After all, their decades of hard work and achievements are not as good as the efforts of a young regent in his twenties for more than half a year. Moreover, considering his daily style of doing things, I am afraid that the word "effort" has to be questioned.

Under this premise, it is really difficult for people like Xiaona and Monica, who are often around Xiu and are influenced by him, to feel any awe towards those historical figures. That is why she was not surprised at all when Mo Tan complained that the [Twilight Crows Eastern Expedition Army] and the [God-Destroying Society] were just so-so.

[Mr. Tan Mo is indeed from the same world as Your Highness. 】

So, the above thought became Monica's only feeling.

Mo Tan, on the other hand, continued to casually spread his knowledge of obscure knowledge.

"For some reason, even though my understanding of the concept of 'God' itself is 'blasphemy' in an objective sense, I have a certain superficial understanding of the field of divine arts."

Mo Tan withdrew his gaze, which had been looking around until just now, and looked at the chapel not far away that was out of tune with the surrounding environment, not only with a complete structure, but also with a faint glow. He said with interest: "For example, the 'dream' you experienced before, its essence is probably some kind of extremely complex divine barrier. Only this kind of thing with 'divine power' as its foundation can sustain itself for thousands of years. Not only that, the power that can make you forget your identity, gender and past in the blink of an eye, even if it is only temporary, can only be achieved by the influence of the 'pseudo-earthly kingdom of God'."

Monica blinked and asked curiously, "A simulated kingdom of God on earth? I thought I was just under some kind of illusion..."

"An ordinary illusion barrier cannot operate independently for thousands of years."

Although he was a thief, Mo Tan, who had a considerable understanding of the field of mysticism, shrugged and said lazily: "As for the illusion that could support our frequent interactions (Monica subconsciously touched her cheek), even if a legendary spellcaster came, I'm afraid it would not be able to last more than three days. The fact is that you have been in that 'dream' for who knows how long and almost starved to death in it." Monica nodded slightly, then stopped hesitantly and pointed to the chapel not far away that was out of tune with everything around it and looked brilliant: "Are we going there, Mr. Anthony?"

"if not?"

Mo Tan glanced at her and asked, "Can we just find a place that doesn't look so bright to have a baby?"

"Ok."

Not paying attention to the other party's sexual harassment, Monica took a deep breath, patted her cheek lightly, and took another step as if she had made up her mind, and said seriously: "Let's go!"

"Oh haha~"

Mo Tan narrowed his eyes, but rarely said anything. He just nodded slightly and followed Monica who was quickening her pace, approaching the magnificent building silently and efficiently.

……

  Time flies, time flies

Five minutes later, in a subtle silence, Mo Tan and Monica arrived at the chapel located in the center of [Jackdaw Castle]. Similar to the joint chapels in the City of Light and Dunbuya City, although this building is filled with a sacred atmosphere and is filled with a large number of exquisite and mysterious reliefs, it does not have any tendency. If there is any difference, it is that compared to the Holy Church United Chapel that combines order, kindness and even a little chaos, this joint chapel belonging to the [Twilight Crow Eastern Expedition Army] even has a little bit of "evil" shadow in some of its decorations. Although it is very obscure, it still cannot deceive Mo Tan's eyes.

Of course, when this chapel was built, there was no intention to hide anything, and Mo Tan's only feeling about it was that he was simply curious as to why these charlatans had been together for such a long time without beating each other's brains out.

"Knock on the door."

Standing in front of the spotless stone steps, Mo Tan ordered Monica without hesitation: "If no one responds, push it. If you can't push it open, smash it."

"Your will, my dagger~"

Monica played a joke on Mo Tan by imitating the style of the guardian knight swearing allegiance, then drew out her dagger and carefully climbed the stone steps, raised her hand and knocked on the Gothic-style black matte wooden door in front of her, which could easily fit two ogres stacked together, and then -

The heavy wooden door slid silently to the sides as if it had no weight, leaving a wide passage.

"Good guy."

Mo Tan, who witnessed the whole process, jumped up the stone steps and tilted his head to confirm with Monica: "So how did you do this? I want to learn it too."

"I didn't do anything."

Monica shook her head like a rattle and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "This door is mine..."

"I opened it."

At this moment, a deep voice suddenly sounded in their ears: "Please come in, there haven't been any guests in Jackdaw Castle for a long time."

"Then excuse me."

As Mo Tan spoke, he took the lead and stepped into the chapel. He walked straight to the end of the carpet without hesitation, staring at the tall figure standing in front of the pulpit with shining eyes, or... The remains asked: "So you are dead?"

"If you mean this body that has long lost its vitality and can only barely maintain its existence under the majesty of my Lord, my answer is - yes, I am dead."

The remains of a white-haired skull, wearing heavy dark red knight armor, stood lifelessly in the same place, but his voice still echoed in the ears of the two: "But if you mean my soul, then unfortunately, I cannot return to the kingdom of my Lord as my mission has not yet been completed."

Mo Tan smacked his lips and raised his eyebrows, "Not long ago, someone told me that clergymen cannot become undead creatures~"

Monica: "..."

"Please don't misunderstand me, sir. I have never been an undead creature."

The voice of the remains rang in the ears of Mo Tan and Monica again, and after a brief silence, he continued: "If you don't mind, you can try to close your eyes and relax before opening them."

"it is good."

Before Monica could respond, Mo Tan closed his eyes without hesitation, emptied his mind for three seconds, and then opened his eyes again.

Thus, the tall skeleton in front of the pulpit was replaced by a handsome, gentle-looking human man with waist-length hair.

"Hello, Mr. Unknown."

The man with ocean-blue eyes saluted to Mo Tan and said humbly, "I am the deputy commander of the Third Regiment of the Dusk Crow Eastern Expedition Army, Hogel Sid of the Blood God Cult."

"Hello, Mr. Hogel, I am Chiduoxing Akagi Takenori."

"What kind of ape?"

"Just kidding, my name is Ultraman Tiga."

"Isn't your name Anthony Dabbs?"

"Tsk, if you insist on calling me that, it's not impossible."
