Sorting Out the Identity Issue (Continued)
Compared to other ways of entering the Holy See, the screening process for becoming a nun is actually much easier.
The nuns in the Holy See may be somewhat different from those in some religions we know from our previous lives. In a sense, they are not as sacred as the nuns in the Holy See.
Nuns are also divided into ranks, and most of the lowest-ranking novice nuns actually have nothing to do with real religious activities.
Their role was more like that of laborers, paid to do odd jobs for the Holy See, such as cleaning or washing clothes for some members of the Holy See.
Of course, because the Holy See is wealthy, even the lowest-ranking nuns can actually earn more than they would in other jobs. The Holy See's only requirement for them is to be sufficiently devout (even if it's just an act). Other than that, you just need to be decently lazy and do your job.
So what about above this lowest rank of novice nun?
They are officially recognized nuns.
In layman's terms, becoming a full-fledged nun means you're officially part of the organization and considered an employee of the Holy See.
At this point, the Holy See will begin to assess each individual. You will then be qualified to participate in internal the Church prayers and choral singing, as well as to engage in missionary activities outside the church.
In fact, the work of a fully ordained nun is quite arduous, and no one knows if they truly enjoy it. However, for many at the lower levels of society, being able to work for the Holy See and obtain official status is a great honor. Even if their piety is feigned, the vast majority of nuns still cherish their work and feel proud of it.
It can be said that if you stay in that kind of atmosphere for a long time, even a non-devout person will become devout.
Above the formal nuns are the more Devout Nun.
There is a basic requirement to reach this level, which is to become an Advancer. This is what Miss Ye Kong learned from the mind of this the Holy See staff member.
The Devout Nun represents his highest understanding of nuns.
Above this level are candidates for Saintess. This can be understood as Saintess being carefully selected from among Devout Nun.
The entire the Holy See may have thousands upon thousands of nuns, but it can only have one Saintess.
"Forget about becoming Saintess or Devout Nun. If I could sneak in as an apprentice, I might gradually gain an understanding of the inner workings of the Holy See. If I'm lucky enough to become a full-fledged member, I might even get access to more secrets of the Light Prayer Church."
The true power and resources of the Orthodox God Church are beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
Ye Qian has a lot of experience and feels she can try anything. If she even has "her own people" within a power like the Light Prayer Church in the future, the room for maneuver will be much greater.
However, upon closer examination, even the lineage of nuns, down to the Saintess, doesn't wield much real power within the Holy See, at least that's the perception on the surface.
"Even if you don't have much power, there's always a chance once you're in there. At least you can see things I wouldn't normally see, right?"
With this in mind, the man in front of him spoke again.
"Beautiful and pure lady, wouldn't you really like to try becoming a nun? There are countless people vying for jobs in the Light Prayer Church. If you can be steadfast in your faith and perform well, you can definitely do very well there."
"I can live a better life too..." he added to himself.
"Then... let me think about it? I need to prepare myself mentally." Ye Kong's eyes darted around, looking somewhat shy and afraid.
"Well."
The man in front of him nodded quickly.
Good heavens, this girl looks so innocent and has that pitiful, fragile quality. If she performs well in the hospital, even if it's just for her image, the Holy See will definitely give her a good job.
The man quickly took out a cell phone from his pocket and said with a smile, "How about we exchange contact information? You can call me whenever you want, okay?"
"Um."
Ye Kong nodded.
The two parties then exchanged numbers.
"I'll ask you about it occasionally later. I really hope you can get in. By the way..." Seemingly realizing that his hurried manner might seem ill-intentioned and fearing that the other person might become suspicious, he took out an ID card from his pocket. "I work at the church. You can check my identity with the Holy See."
"Mhm." Ye Kong nodded repeatedly.
"Goodbye then, little girl."
After they parted ways, Ye Kong turned and ran away.
The man silently clenched his fist and gave a shout of "Yes!"
"That girl is so cute! Luckily, I've developed some courage over the past two years, otherwise I wouldn't have dared to speak up."
He patted his chest, recalling Ye Kong's appearance, and felt as if a two-dimensional goddess had come to life.
I can only say I was lucky to run into such a beautiful girl.
After Ye Kong bought some food and returned home, her other bodies elsewhere were already trying to figure out how to deal with her identity.
"Without the connection with the college, it would require transferring to many departments."
Even relying solely on connections within the academy isn't reliable. While the Holy See doesn't possess the level of knowledge about individuals' birth details, identities obtained through connections are still easily verifiable.
Therefore, the best and only way is to make changes from the underlying archives.
The internal data of a whole host of Kingdom of Order, including birth bureaus, police stations, hospitals, and so on, will all need to be changed, and some records will need to be added or modified.
"Fortunately, a few spots were reserved. After so much time, it probably won't be so difficult for me to obtain an identity."
Inside the hospital, this was easy to solve, because when recruiting members for Dusk, we specifically selected certain individuals from a high-level hospital. They were all high-ranking, highly capable individuals with whom we had good relationships.
Ye Qian's infiltration of certain official departments of the Kingdom of Order was not overlooked either; she happened to have people in the Bureau of Birth and the Police Department as well.
If all departments add information together and coordinate, it may only take one to two days to prepare Ye Kong's birth record, identity certificate, etc., and everything will be ready neatly and completely.
"I guess only I can do something like this."
Ye Qian's greatest strength lies in her ability to subtly cultivate a large number of Dusk members and secretly issue missions that few can resist.
Moreover, for certain sensitive matters, she wouldn't carry them out through tasks, but would instead make the other party sleepwalk.
That evening, at a hospital in Konghai City.
A doctor at the level of chief physician arrived at the door of the archives room.
"Director, are you still working so late?" A doctor who was leaving get off work next to him smiled as he packed up his things.
If I remember correctly, the director has been working continuously for 16 hours, and even performed surgery in between. Even someone with an iron body couldn't withstand that.
"I need to check two patient records. I'll go home after I'm done."
"You've worked hard."
After the doctor left, the head doctor pushed open the door and entered.
One area contains archives of all babies born in the hospital over the past 20 years.
These records are not all filled; some are blank.
She went to a filing cabinet from 16 years ago, opened one of the drawers, took out a record from November 28th, quickly took out a pen, and imitated the original notes, adding new content at the back.
Ye Kong, female, birth weight, and subsequent examination records, etc.
Twenty minutes later, after repeatedly checking, he put the file back, locked the drawer door again, nodded in satisfaction, and calmly walked out.
[Task: Add display file information. Completed.]
[Reward: 20 points.]
"Very good."
Seeing the reward made him feel a little more at ease.
Because he desperately needs points.
As a doctor, he was unable to cure his granddaughter's illness and could only resort to this method to obtain Water of Purification in order to sustain her life.
In fact, his granddaughter's condition is very complicated. It seems to be a very rare disease, and her body is severely damaged. The hospital alone cannot save her.
Ironically, after using the Water of Purification, his symptoms lessened, which made him eager to obtain more to exchange for Water of Purification.
Adding birth records is a task that poses almost no difficulty for him.
"Next, all we need to do is change the old data on the computer."
Similar information requires a high level of access, and having worked here for decades, he could say that even the access control system was established under his guidance. He himself holds the highest level of access within the hospital and is the only senior doctor in this official hospital who is trusted by the higher-ups.
He went to a computer and, under the pretext of checking data, began to access and slowly add to the old files.
Once you've added it, adjust the viewing time, and the task is completely finished.
[Task: Add data information, completed.]
[Reward: 60 points.]
"60 points?"
His eyes flickered when he saw the reward.
Besides giving some to my granddaughter, I can also drink some myself.
According to the system, this thing can prolong life.
Meanwhile, inside the birth control office and the police station.
Similar things are happening, but because the Bureau of Birth has much stricter control, this time it was accomplished by a group of people working together.
The rewards are also much more generous.
Afterwards, everyone is restricted from communicating about this matter; it's practically impossible for them to reveal what they've done.
Once everything was settled, there was only one thing left for Ye Kong.
Replace your identity document.
It was simple. She just went to have her photo taken, left her fingerprints, and that was it.
Because the person in question is an orphan with a clean background, their parents' information will also be added to departments such as funeral homes.
Two days later, Ye Kong had received his ID card.
"It was a real hassle, but once you've done it once, things will be much easier in the future."
She will definitely use similar methods to create a whole bunch of new identities in the future.
"But being a nun... well, thinking about it does have a... something to it..."
Standing in front of the mirror, imagining himself in a nun's habit, Ye Kong exclaimed.
The nun uniforms of the Light Prayer Church are different from those of my previous life.
She had observed this before through the Mystic Thread.
Well, it can be divided into two types: black and white.
White is the formal attire for nuns, while black is for novice nuns. When worn, it is a relatively lightweight robe.
Nuns typically wear black or dark flesh-colored stockings, covering a significant portion of their bodies, and their robes have a very formal style.
"It'll have to do."
Coincidentally, the man called that very day.
"So, have you made up your mind?"
"Yes, I'd like to give it a try, to become a nun," Ye Kong replied readily.
"That's great. But are you very devoted to the God of Light Prayer? I mean, do you believe the God of Light Prayer is the only god?"
"Yes," Ye Kong replied readily.
Although she didn't believe in God at all, it didn't stop her from giving that answer.
The screening process for becoming a novice nun in the Holy See is not very strict.
There might be follow-up investigations involving dreams, and since Ye Kong another body as an anchor, he doesn't need to worry about getting lost and telling the truth when faced with inquiries from other people.
"How about we meet at the church entrance? Although I recommended you, it's still a bit difficult to get in directly, but I'll find a way to help you succeed."
"Um."
Seeing how cooperative the pretty girl was, the man seemed even more excited after hanging up the phone.
"Regardless of whether she can develop well or not, as long as she can become an intern, the credit for this recommendation will definitely go to me."
He never considered that the other party might be a heretic or Evil Cult.
The likelihood of that happening is extremely low.
More than half an hour later, on the square in front of the church, Ye Kong, who was wearing a gothic-style midi skirt and looked very charming, met the man.
"You've come, so please come in with me. Don't worry about anything else. Just answer their questions truthfully, and show that you're willing to work hard. If you perform well, your demeanor alone will be enough to easily beat the other competitors."
