The Shepherds Are Dense – Chapter 634

Chapter 633
The Most Awesome Episode
—As Eivass had suspected, it was a Holy Module!
Eivass had been thinking, this was a weapon forged from the flesh and blood of an Apostle. It couldn’t possibly still be an ordinary deep purple Extraordinary Weapon, right?
Even a shield of the same tier, or the weapon the King of the Wild Hunt used against the Punisher Demon, couldn’t breach its defense. It remained pristine even after blocking dragon flames.
At least none of the Holy Weapons Eivass possessed could achieve such a feat.
—A weapon of this caliber, even if still a purple Extraordinary Weapon, would be just a step away from becoming a Holy Weapon!
Thus, Eivass had conceived an idea—
Caligula’s body had been sent flying several kilometers away by Eivass’s charge.
While this could not harm “Tyrant” Caligula himself, his body wasn’t fast enough to escape. After sending it so far, Eivass could turn back and seize his weapon!
What inspired Eivass was his previous attack on the shield—even after Eivass had poked out its eye, it could still function as a shield. Its behavioral logic simply turned sluggish, transforming from an incomparably swift and telepathic state into an artificially unintelligent mess.
The cause of all this was this spear that pierced it from the Punisher Demon!
Both the Punisher Demon and the Night Demon were Apostles of the Fallen Heavenly Envoys.
Now that they were all suppressed to the same level, the relationship of restraint became evident!
Eivass had seen it before, this sword suddenly attacked, almost shattering Merlin’s barrier with a single blow!
Although Merlin was a bit of an oddball, Eivass deeply admired his strength.
As an extremely rare half-Phantom Demon, Merlin possessed half Succubus blood, granting him innate transcendent adaptability. Furthermore, he would later become an Apostle of a Great Philosopher, meaning his Path of Wisdom had also been recognized.
Under such circumstances, his barrier, prepared in advance with techniques from both the Path of Wisdom and the Transcendent Path, could withstand Caligula’s laser eye but was nearly cut in half by this sword—Eivass had taken a keen interest in this sword at the time.
—If possible, I’ll take the weapon formed from your body and put it to use!
Now, Eivass’s deduction was proven correct.
The only regret was that this weapon was incredibly heavy.
In terms of weight, even the combined Lightning Strike Halberd and Dragon Bone Spear were not even one-twentieth of its mass. Wielding this sword was more difficult than lifting a carriage with one hand.
If it weren’t for the Sixth Tier King of the Wild Hunt controlling this spear and the Ghost Pegasus providing acceleration, it would be difficult to move, let alone swing it with one hand to activate the most challenging Holy Module.
But fortunately.
—Eivass could use it!
As Eivass charged back wielding this sword, Caligula had clearly given up resisting.
Having lost his crucial “sword,” “shield,” and hound, “Tyrant” Caligula realized he was on the verge of defeat.
He did not chant spells again, nor did he activate his laser. Only his shield circled him slowly.
However, he did not surrender.
Instead, as Eivass approached, he suddenly shouted:
“Great Supreme Heaven!
“—Punish your enemy!”
At that moment, a rift that Eivass found quite familiar tore open the sky.
Resembling an eye, resembling a knife wound.
A deep crimson beam shot straight into the heavens, piercing through layers of crimson clouds. It looked as if Caligula was about to erroneously evolve into a zombie tyrannosaur on the spot…
And at this moment.
Through that small opening, Eivass finally saw the appearance of the Supreme Heaven for the first time—
Not a reddish-brown giant bear like the Bear Heavenly Envoy.
Nor was he a furry giant.
—Rather, he was a man with red demonic markings on his face and a brownish-red complexion.
He couldn’t be described as handsome, but he was certainly not as ugly as a giant. His appearance possessed a demonic aura—a terrifying aura that made one feel intimidated and tremble just by being in his gaze.
He had two pairs of wings behind him, one blood-red and the other dark red. They looked like those of a fallen angel… but they were not feathered wings, rather indistinct wings like flames or smoke.
He had shoulder-length red hair and wore a red bear-skin cloak. His upper body was bare, and he sat on a golden throne. On his knees sat two beautiful women clad in light gauze.
And through the dense clouds, he saw Eivass.
The man slightly raised his right hand and gently pressed down.
A colossal hand that reached through the sky emerged from the clouds—
—It was a hand like that of a “giant tree”!
If it were to press down on the Earth, the entire forest would be crushed by the Supreme Heaven’s palm!
However, the Supreme Heaven did not simply press down and crush the Earth. Instead, he extended two fingers from the clouds and pointed them into the void.
Instantly, a golden barrier filled with runes appeared from high above and was then directly shattered by it!
—It was the binding and isolation from the Hourglass (Deity)!
The moment this barrier shattered, the clouds in the sky thinned. The sky of the Material Realm merged with the lower layers of the Dream Realm, allowing even Ordinary Persons to glimpse events in the Dream Realm from the sky. Astrology also became clearer, enabling direct intel acquisition through stargazing.
Subsequently, the Supreme Heaven raised his hand and condensed a deep crimson lightning bolt in his palm.
After a slight aim, he casually tossed it out. The action was as effortless as throwing a crumpled piece of paper into a trash can.
That scorching, deep crimson falling lightning charged downwards!
Throughout the entire process, Eivass was so awestruck that he couldn’t move.
He could only maintain his upward gaze, watching the Supreme Heaven’s face become ever clearer after shattering the barrier.
The Supreme Heaven’s lips curled into an expectant smile of satisfaction, as if anticipating the paper wad hitting the bullseye—
But just then.
A Silvery White Dragon streaked past like a hurricane, blocking the red lightning, grabbing Eivass, and biting Caligula!
The Supreme Heaven’s smile froze instantly.
The silver dragon, while ferociously shaking its head, flew straight towards the sky.
The Supreme Heaven immediately stood up from his throne, a look of fury flashing across his face. His brown skin instantly turned deep red, his entire body glowing like burning coal.
And at that moment, the Silver Crown Dragon approached the top of the cloud layer and spat out Caligula, whose head it had just bitten off.
As Caligula’s head and body separated, the Silver Crown Dragon lowered its head and unleashed a gust of silvery white frost dragon breath, directly shattering the skull!
Then, the silver dragon grabbed the body, spewing dragon breath onto its claws as it dived down. After circling the lowest point, it soared high again, releasing Caligula’s headless body, covered in frost, at its apex.
The dragon gently nudged Eivass.
Eivass immediately reacted.
Without hesitation, he charged from the sky!
The Supreme Heaven furiously hurled another crimson lightning bolt at Eivass.
However, the golden barrier that had been shattered earlier had already rapidly regenerated. It filtered out most of the crimson lightning’s power; the remaining bit even landed a step behind Eivass.
Under the Supreme Heaven’s enraged gaze, the King of the Wild Hunt held high Caligula’s own lightning-entwined greatsword—
—As they crossed paths, he swung the sword twice in succession.
After an extremely brief moment of stagnation.
A lightning bolt struck the intersection simultaneously.
With a deafening roar, Caligula’s frozen, headless body was suddenly obliterated by a large ball of lightning!
In an instant, the surrounding scene blurred again.
Eivass saw the entire sky filled with terrifying crimson.
But the next moment, the image before Eivass’s eyes suddenly dissipated—
He was transported back decades, to the ordinary night sky.
The Lightning Strike Halberd in his hand had vanished.
Not far away, he could see Origen, carrying the Lightning Strike Halberd on his back.
“…Your Excellency, you’ve returned?”
Origen turned back, his voice filled with surprise. “Your Excellency, what is this—?!”
He saw Helchin, who had disappeared for a short while, now enveloped in a dense aura of death. The Pegasus beneath him had also transformed into a semi-transparent Ghost Pegasus.
And in his hand, he held an unimaginably large…
Deep Crimson Greatsword!
