Quadruple split.

Chapter 2925 Unprecedented
"So……"

Mo Tan lay lazily on the ground, resting his head on his arm, and asked languidly, "Before I go to Tianping to confirm the situation, could you briefly introduce your own value to me?"

"Value, huh?"

Kneeling beside Mo Tan, Elfen smiled and said gently, "Am I really honored to be a pawn in Lord Hei Fan's hands?"

Mo Tan raised his arm and lightly flicked Erfen's nose: "Don't be disrespectful, call me brother."

"Yes~"

Elfin, his smile widening, nodded happily, then stroked his chin thoughtfully and said, "Let me think... First, I can summon two [Soul Nightmares], which are the obsessions of Father and Mother, to help interfere with the enemy. For example... well, if they overlap with the enemy, then the enemy will feel like they're being soaked in cold water!"

Mo Tan nodded slightly and said calmly, "Very good. When you really have to go to the front line, don't bother the two of you. Just let them stay by your side."

"Okay."

Elfin nodded obediently and continued, "I can also set bones. If someone breaks a bone, I can try to set it for them. Although it takes some effort, the results are quite good."

Mo Tan scratched his head and asked, "Did Tianping teach you that?"

"Yes, Sister Libra said she's very good at orthopedics!"

Elfen immediately gave an affirmative answer, saying with great admiration, "She said that if she brought her current skills back to your world, Brother Hei Fan, she would definitely be the chief physician of a top-tier hospital."

Mo Tan sighed and said helplessly, "Then she might as well study the Summoning School and go out to perform some kind of shamanic ritual. It would be best if she could also start a live stream of 'Beautiful Girl Performing Shamanic Ritual.' She might earn just as much as a chief physician, and it would be much easier to achieve."

Elfin tilted his head and thought for a moment, but couldn't figure it out, so he continued, "I can also help with bandaging, cooking, washing clothes, and cheering everyone on!"

"Yes, that's pretty much what I thought. It's a very impressive talent."

Mo Tan didn't seem disappointed. He said slowly, "In short, after I check the situation with Tianping, I will try to help. As for the excuse that allows you to go to the front line... you can think of one yourself. As long as it's not too far-fetched, I can cooperate."

Elfin immediately let out a long sigh of relief, then his expression suddenly became awkward. After a long while, he whispered, "I... might know a little something else."

Mo Tan nodded casually and said, "Tell me about it."

"I know some simple healing spells."

As she fiddled with her beautiful long golden hair, Elfin said softly, "Although I'm a little unaccustomed to it because I haven't practiced in a long time, I tried it out a bit last night and I can still use it."

Mo Tan turned to look at Elfen with some surprise: "Oh? You know divine magic?"

"Ah."

Elfin nodded gently and smiled shyly, "Although my mother wasn't a clergyman, she was a very devout follower of the Dawn Cult, so I've been interested in the Dawn Cult since I was little, and I attended a church academy, so..."

"stop."

Just then, Mo Tan suddenly raised his right hand, interrupting Elfen with a very subtle expression, and asked, "You just said you know a little bit of divine magic?"

"Uh-huh."

"And it's even a divine spell from our Dawn Cult?"

"Uh-huh."

"Is your mother a follower of the Dawn Cult?"

"Uh-huh."

"Was the church college you attended also part of the Dawn Cult?"

"Uh-huh."

"So, you must be a novice priest or a nun?"

"Should I consider it?"

"very good."

Mo Tan nodded, then without hesitation opened his friends list and found a woman named Juechen Tianping, who was currently busy arming various skeletons on the front lines. He typed a very clear message and sent it to her—

Are you there? ...

half a minute later
【Huh? What's going on? Why did you suddenly go crazy?】

Libra replied with that statement.

Mo Tan: [I have a question for you.]

Libra: [Go ahead and ask! Didn't I just ask you what the situation was?]

Mo Tan: [Do you know a little boy named Erfen?]

Libra: [...Did you find something dirty and eat it somewhere? That kid is practically my apprentice, how could I not recognize him?]

Mo Tan: [So, she's your apprentice, the necromancer?]

Libra: [What's wrong? You look down on necromancers?]

Mo Tan: [So, in principle, Elfin is also a necromancer, right?]

Libra: [Yes, although she's only at the apprentice level, she's very perceptive and learns quickly. While her bone control expertise isn't as good as mine, her talent is very well-rounded, so she should have a bright future.]

Mo Tan: [The scales...]

Libra: [Huh?]

Mo Tan: [If I told you now that I wanted you to convert to my [Dawn Cult], become a devout follower of our Lord, cultivate your character, and study divine arts, what would you think?]

Libra: [I'll assume you definitely found something dirty and ate it.] Mo Tan: [Okay, fine, that's all, you can go ahead with your work.]

Libra: [Huh?!]

……

So, Mo Tan, who had unilaterally closed the message bar, took a deep breath and stared at Elfen for a long time with his eyes that had regained focus, until the girl's face turned red and she lowered her head. Only then did he ask slowly, "Are you sure you're not joking?"

"No."

Elfin shook his head, then raised his right hand and extended his index finger to light a soft, warm, and clear halo between the two of them: "Look, Brother Black Fan."

"...[Condensation of Light]".

Although it wasn't powerful from a priest's perspective, Mo Tan, who had been a clergyman for almost a year, immediately recognized the basic divine spell. He said with a somewhat blank expression, "I'm starting to wonder if I'm being influenced by something with a strong hallucinogenic effect. I can actually see an apprentice necromancer lighting up a ball of [Condensation]."

The person involved, who also knew how outrageous this matter was, shrank back and whispered, "Um, Brother Hei Fan, I didn't mean to keep it from everyone."

Let me explain briefly.

Mo Tan lay back down on the ground, covering the upper half of his face, and said weakly, "A complicated explanation is fine, but it's best if it's something I can understand."

"Ah."

The girl nodded vigorously, and then explained her identity as a "trainee clergyman" in the simplest language possible.

The details are as follows—

First, as Elfin said, because her mother was a devout believer, Elfin had a strong affinity for the Dawn Cult from a young age, and eventually, spoiled by her parents, she attended both a noble girls' academy and a church academy.

As the name suggests, the academy for noblewomen consists entirely of girls from aristocratic families. It is a girls' school with a very good atmosphere, and the main courses are mainly focused on etiquette and the arts.

The church college is a school under the Dawn Church with low entry requirements, low tuition fees, and low rent. Its main purpose is to convey the blessings of the Dawn Goddess and popularize basic education. Almost all subjects except theology courses are completely covered by the girls' school mentioned above.

There's not much to say about the former. Just looking at Elfin's impeccable manners, speech, and demeanor, you can tell that she belongs to the most outstanding group of students even in a prestigious girls' school.

As for church schools, since Elfin had already learned a lot at the girls' school, she mostly only participated in theological courses and volunteer activities. In addition to naturally becoming a Dawn believer, she also learned some basic divine magic.

For example, the character Black Brahma starts with the default set of three beginner skills from the Dawn Cult: [Holy Healing], [Condensed Light], and [Condensed Arrow].

In addition, Elfin later mastered slightly stronger divine spells such as [Healing Prayer] and [Tranquility Aura]. Although the effects were not particularly powerful, she could actually use them.

Later, due to some unforeseen circumstances, Elfin left his hometown with his parents, intending to live in the Holy Land. However, for reasons that may not be convenient to discuss, they chose an extremely dangerous path: "heading eastward from the Northwest Continent, entering the Blood Barbarian territory, and then changing course southward to enter the Holy Land."

The final result was that the three of them were betrayed by the 'channel' they found, and the caravan where they were staying was attacked by the Blood Barbarians, resulting in the tragic death of Elfin's parents. As a survivor, she was rescued by Skolke.

And so, the girl became a member of Skolck, quickly integrating into the big family with her intelligence and sincerity.

She made no demands, only felt grateful to Skolker, and did what she could every day to help everyone in any way she could, no matter how insignificant the favor.

However, the girl did not reveal her background, nor did she let everyone know that she was actually a clergyman.

It wasn't that Elfin wanted to deliberately hide it, but she knew very well that her background would likely cause trouble for Skork. As for her identity as a follower of the Dawn Cult... considering that Skork's relationship with the Holy Church wasn't exactly good, and that there were even some irreconcilable blood feuds between them due to the presence of a large number of former Blood Barbarian warriors, the girl ultimately chose not to cause trouble for everyone.

Mo Tan felt that if Elfen insisted on using divine magic to heal herself, she might not only avoid the torment of weakness, but might even be able to purify the two [Soul Nightmares] that had no ill intentions towards her.

Of course, in retrospect, leaving behind those two obsessions is a comforting thing for Elfin. However, it is worth mentioning that if Motan had not reached a cooperation agreement with Skolke, which led to a series of subsequent changes, Elfin would very likely have weakened and died within a few years.

In fact, when Luna started helping Lysa improve Elfin's physical condition, the latter was already unable to cast any Dawn spells.

However, this is not the focus of the current topic. The real focus is that after Elfin's body recovered and she gradually got rid of the influence of the [Soul Nightmare], she was surprised to find that she could use divine magic again.

After that, she always wanted to tell the story, but she never found the right time.

Mo Tan knew very well what happened next. In short, because of the bond with his parents, Erfen chose to become a disciple of a terrible witch to learn necromancy and achieved some success.

and so--

"So now you can use both Dawnlight magic and necromancy..."

Mo Tan pinched his brow, feeling utterly overwhelmed, and said, "To be honest, although I don't have much experience, your situation... let's not even talk about whether there will be anyone like it in the future, it's definitely unprecedented."

Elfin gave a slightly embarrassed smile befitting her age and whispered, "But Sister Tianping also said that although necromancers are generally a little abnormal and the proportion of bad guys is frighteningly high, evil is never really power."

“I never said that divine magic and necromancy represent ‘justice’ and ‘evil’ respectively.”

Mo Tan chuckled dryly and said helplessly, "There are bad people among the clergy who have done all sorts of evil deeds, and there are also good people with noble character among the necromancers. Power itself is indeed neither right nor wrong, but the problem is... the nature of divine magic lies in its 'uniqueness' in the mystical world, because the so-called 'faith' itself is a very, very, very exclusive concept."

Following Mo Tan's train of thought, Elfin asked, "So, theoretically, it's impossible for clergy to possess other professions capable of wielding mysticism? Like warlocks, mages, necromancers, or something like that?"

"As you said, that's just theoretical. After all, for countless years, no one has ever conducted a pointless and fanciful experiment on whether 'divine magic' can be compatible with 'necromancy.' As for the mages... as far as I know, there are at least three hundred research institutions in the City of Miracles that are directly related to this topic, and more than twenty of them have received full support from the Council of Truth."

Mo Tan shrugged and spread his hands, saying, "And for thousands of years, their research results on this type of topic... have been basically zero."

"I see."

Elfin clapped his hands lightly and said with some delight, "It seems pretty impressive."

"This is no longer a question of whether it's powerful or not."

Mo Tan's gaze narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Once this is exposed, you will definitely become 'material' that countless forces and organizations will fight over, and some fanatical believers will even directly define you as a 'blasphemer' and try every means to erase this terrible pollution on the religious level."

"Oh no, isn't that very dangerous..."

"In short, don't let anyone else know about this. I will protect you."

"Ok!"
