Devil's Bible

The shepherd could see no way out at that moment.

The decisive battle broke out too quickly, so quickly that he simply didn't have time to accumulate enough resources.

In this situation, he had nowhere to run.

"So, Nemes's so-called 'giving me a chance' was also a lie?" The shepherd didn't know why so many people were watching him, but he was certain that it was definitely related to Nemes.

Nems didn't give himself an opportunity; he made himself a target.

Only in this way can the current situation be explained.

Since he was a target, then the future of himself and everyone else in the world never existed from the beginning. Nems simply deceived himself.

So right now, we have no direction at all, and no future in sight.

But even at this moment, the shepherd still did not want to give up.

He didn't know how to get out of the situation, so he decided to live on, holding onto the belief that he had to survive no matter what.

As long as you're alive, you might find a different way out.

Once the gaze is fixed on you, an unreasonable will presses down on you in the next moment.

Driven by this will, the shepherd felt as if his brain was about to explode.

Then, his head really did explode.

He died without any surprise.

The Hermit Saint and Mocania are not in the same league.

Even when facing Mocania, the shepherds can only use the realm of humanity to corrupt him to a certain extent, seeking to cause the collapse of his self-awareness.

Therefore, he had no ability to resist the Hidden Saint.

Furthermore, at this moment, within the Humanity Domain, the Shepherd's consciousness began to coalesce. He found that while the coalescing was relatively smooth, when he tried to draw upon the power of the Humanity Domain to resurrect his body, a twisted will was constantly pressing down on him.

In order to revive itself, the humanistic realm could only keep stirring things up, and in the process of stirring things up, the suppressed twisted will began to strike.

Under the influence of the distortion, the consciousness of many people in the human realm began to be infected, and they gradually developed faith in the God of Discipline.

These corrupted consciousnesses then began searching within the realm of humanity, seeking its core or something special.

At this moment, the shepherd's consciousness began to feel a strong sense of unease.

The human rights realm is essentially nothing more than a remnant of the world's destruction.

What truly holds value is the consciousness of most people in this entire world, which is also the treasure most cherished by shepherds.

No one wants their perception to be corrupted by another.

The shepherd charged toward the other, while simultaneously pondering the meaning behind the other's actions.

"What are they looking for?"

"And this thing is related to Nems!"

The shepherd immediately thought of how Nems had treated him.

If Nemus really did use him to project something into the humanitarian realm, then that thing is very likely on him.

So what should we do now?
The shepherd made his judgment without any hesitation.

If this will is allowed to continue sweeping through the humanitarian sphere, the very foundation of humanity will be destroyed.

So he has to stand up.

"What you're looking for is most likely on me!" The shepherd's consciousness fluctuated rapidly, attracting the attention of the hidden saint.

The Hermit Saint was taken aback; he truly hadn't expected Nemus to do this, leaving the answer to the riddle itself. However, he still diverted a portion of his power to probe the Shepherd's consciousness.

The other party is deeply integrated with the entire humanitarian realm, and the foundation of their consciousness is deeply bound to the humanitarian realm.

Basically, as long as the realm of humanity exists and the shepherd's self-awareness is not distorted, he cannot die.

Previously, I thought that the resurrection of the shepherd by the humanitarian realm might just be a kind of consciousness replication by the humanitarian realm using the power of consciousness.

The shepherd created is just a similar individual.

However, upon closer inspection, it is now discovered that the shepherd is never a clone; he is constantly being resurrected.

Even if consciousness is interrupted, these consciousnesses can still gather together.

After discovering this, the Hidden Saint suddenly felt that things might really be as the Shepherd had said, and that the core of the Nemes scheme they were looking for was actually in the Shepherd.

After all, even though this happens in the virtual world, it is still quite remarkable.

Unlike Mocania, whose thinking was restricted, the Hermit Saint's beliefs, though distorted, were purely distorted, and he possessed normal thinking abilities.

This is the most distinctive characteristic of this kind of ascetic saint: his thinking is based solely on God, but when he perceives other things, he is quite normal, and can even be said to be philosophical.

At such times, the hidden sage can truly recognize that the shepherd's thinking is that of a normal person.

So, apart from lacking a true soul and life, the shepherd is no different from a normal person.

But shepherds are still able to revive through the humane sphere.

The power behind this may be greater than we imagine.

Without hesitation, the Hermit Saint crushed the Shepherd's consciousness once again.

Thought is a supreme rule, which is difficult to enforce and also difficult to observe the true nature of thought.

However, the hidden saints are different, and they are more convenient in this human realm.

Fragments of the shepherd's consciousness were quickly observed, constrained by some force.

Even though it was broken into such a state, it was still quickly pieced back together into its normal form according to a certain power at the core of the humanistic domain.

"Cause and effect, destiny?" The hidden sage didn't quite understand these things, but he knew that even such power was probably not insignificant.

"Therefore, this is very likely the core of Nemus's power structure."

"Nemus himself possesses abilities related to fate and cause and effect."

“These abilities are hidden between the shepherd’s consciousness and the realm of humanity, like a huge, stable mechanism.”

"As long as there are no problems on either side, this core can steadily maintain both."

"That's right, this is the core of Nemus's strategy."

"Using the realm of humanity and the shepherds to extend their reach, they connected with countless remaining consciousnesses in this world, and then used these consciousnesses to deeply interfere with this broken land."

"Nemus is indeed superior to us in his understanding of the world and forces such as fate."

Once the target is located, working backwards will make the route very clear.

However, before working backward, how could they be certain that this collapsed world could be influenced by surviving consciousness?

How do we determine if the shepherd is one of the two cores?

It can be said that by observing shepherds alone or by observing the humanitarian field alone, one cannot find any trace of their interference in the world.

Even now, by observing the two things together, they have found the core issue.

It remains unclear how Nemus will intervene in this shattered land through the Shepherds and the Humanitarian Realm. (End of Chapter)
