The investigator bracelet recorded all the changes of Eren before and after his evolution.
As the last step of the record, the bracelet displayed the detailed illustration information of Nightmare Knight.
【Name】：Eren (Nightmare Knight)
[Attributes]: Dark, Undead
[Racial Level]: High Emperor
[Growth Level]: Mature Stage 7
[Talent Core]: Subspace (Dark S-level)
[Skills]: Phantom Flame Sword (Fire S-level), Scourge of the Undead (Undead S-level), Death Knell (Undead A-level), Shadow Collapse (Dark A-level), Nightmare (Divine Mind B-level)
[Normal implicit energy value]: 784587P
Even though she had prepared herself mentally, Mu Huoyue was still shocked by the information in the illustration.
The higher-level imperial races would have at least one S-level skill, but I didn't expect that Eren would have three S-level skills at once, and even his innate core skill was upgraded to a rare dark S-level skill.
At first glance, Ellen's skill list has completely changed. None of the familiar skills are left. However, after careful analysis, these are the results of fusion and evolution based on the original skills.
The first is the S-level dark skill [Subspace] which is the core of the talent.
This is the top skill among all the currently known shadow skills. It is able to completely control the power from the shadow space and turn the shadow space into a domain under its own control.
The superior skill of the original B-level skill [Shadow Stealth] is the A-level shadow status skill [Shadow Control]. This is also a very powerful dark skill that can completely transform itself into the shadow space. Wherever there is a shadow, it is the territory of the shadow.
But [Subspace] goes one step further, it is a well-deserved upper-level imperial domain skill.
Mu Huiyue guessed that this was a domain skill that evolved from the original innate core skill [Shadow Stealth], combined with the B-level skill [Deterrence] and Eren's own adaptability to the shadow space.
Under the effect of [Subspace], Nightmare Knight can exist in the real world and shadow space at the same time, leaving projections that are completely consistent with his original body in both worlds. Coupled with the characteristics of [Gravity Reversal], even the Beastmaster himself finds it difficult to tell which side is his real place.
If you use [Subspace] as a long-term status skill like [Shadow Stealth]...
Mu Huoyue immediately came up with a very interesting tactic.
What would happen if Nightmare Knight placed his body in the shadow space and carried out activities in the real world as a projection of the subspace?
The subspace projection has no entity and is almost immune to all types of attack skills. No matter whether it is physical attack or energy attack, it is impossible to penetrate the subspace projection and reach the Nightmare Knight's body.
The projection itself is an extension of the Warp and the imperial domain of the Nightmare Knight.
The projection of the subspace cannot expand the imperial domain outward, but the existence of the projection itself is like an absolutely fixed imperial domain. As long as the main body is not affected, the projection will not be changed.
This means that even if the Nightmare Knight is in the imperial domain of other extraordinary creatures, he will not be affected in any way.
Immune to most attack skills, and cannot be suppressed by the Emperor's Domain. Unless encountering shadow skills of the same level, the Nightmare Knight is almost invincible in the subspace state.
In addition to the core skills of the talents, other skills have also undergone a certain degree of fusion and evolution.
The fire-type S-level attack skill [Ghost Flame Sword] is the result of integrating the B-level skill [Ghost Fire], the B-level skill [Bone Blade Piercing], and the C-level skill [Calcification].
This is the signature skill of the Nightmare Knight. It condenses soul fire in the accompanying knight's sword to launch a slash. Its attack form transcends the boundaries of physics and energy. When it touches the [Rules] part, it can penetrate most of the defensive skills on the known skill tree and directly hit the target.
Although it is judged to be a fire skill, the effect of [Phantom Flame Sword] is closer to the temperature of the [Phantom Fire] period that directly acts on the soul of a living being. After the slash hits, the phantom fire burns, which will cause the target's soul to be in a negative state of frozen.
Another S-level skill is the undead manipulation skill [Scourge].
This skill is a fusion of the B-level skill [Summoning the Undead] and the C-level skill [Dead Corpse].
The original superior skill of [Summoning the Undead] was the A-level undead manipulation skill [Undead Illusion], which was also a skill unique to the Nightmare Knight and the cornerstone for the S-level Lord of the Secret Realm to control his own domain.
Eren was able to evolve from a Card Soldier to a Nightmare Knight, with [Summoning of the Dead] playing a guiding role.
Mu Huoyue was quite familiar with the [Undead Fantasy], having done sufficient homework in the Affairs Bureau before, but he still needed to cooperate with Eren and communicate and verify what kind of effect the more advanced [Undead Scourge] would bring.
Among the A-level skills below S-level, [Shadow Collapse] is a dark attack skill that determines a base point in the shadow space and detonates it, thereby forming a dark energy collapse in the real world, which can cause a destructive effect like a super-small black hole.
This is one of the skills that Eren learned on his own after evolving, and it can be considered a derivative skill of [Subspace].
The landing point of releasing [Shadow Collapse] is determined by the pet's own control over the shadow space.
If you have learned [Shadow Collapse] during the B-level skill [Shadow Stealth] stage, you can only use it in an area with dense shadows and in contact with the target.
When it comes to the [Subspace] stage, the Nightmare Knight only needs a thought to release [Shadow Collapse] in any area within the projection range of the Shadow Space, even inside the Shadow Space.
Another A-rank undead attack skill, [Death Knell], is a fusion-evolved skill of the C-rank skill [Soul Trill] under the effect of the C-rank skill [Shadow Soil].
The original [Soul Tremor] did not have a higher-level skill, and [Shadow Soil] would usually evolve into a B-level dark skill that matched the pet's own preference.
In Nightmare Knight, the two skills were wonderfully combined and eventually formed [Death Knell].
This skill can be regarded as a super-enhanced version of [Soul Tremor]. It is the funeral sound played by undead supernatural creatures for their opponents. It can vibrate the soul and consciousness of the listener and cause a strong mental shock.
Once [Death Knell] takes effect, it will inflict a negative status of countdown damage on the target.
If you fail to win the battle within a certain period of time, or remove the influence of [Death Knell], you will suffer huge mental damage after the countdown ends and lose your combat capability directly.
Mu Huoyue actually didn't expect that Eren's [Shadow Soil] would eventually be combined with [Soul Tremor]. According to the characteristics of the Pai Ya Bing and his own preference, it is more likely to be a shadow-type skill.
...Could it be that Ellen actually likes [Soul Tremolo] in certain situations, such as when playing as a band at a music festival?
The last B-level skill [Nightmare] is also the skill that Eren awakened on his own after evolving.
This is a rare spiritual skill. It implants the concept of fear into the target, enters their dream and destroys their mental consciousness. It is somewhat similar to [Entering a Dream], but the effect is much weaker and is limited to [Nightmare] scenes.
With the same suppression effect, the higher-level [Death Knell] can completely replace [Nightmare]. Mu Huoyue didn't quite understand why Eren awakened [Nightmare] on his own.
Is it because [Nightmare] was added to fit the concept of [Nightmare Knight]'s existence?
Eren remained silent about this. In order to maintain the reliable image of Nightmare Knight in Hiiragi's heart, he hid his little selfish desire.
The [Nightmare] skill is just a medium. It is the only skill related to dream consciousness that he can learn through evolution.
With this skill, if the situation in the "Enlightenment Garden" happens again, the Nightmare Knight can follow the Beastmaster directly into any dream and eliminate all threats that may harm her.
It wasn't a skill he learned in order to become stronger or win more battles, it was just a means for Eren to protect the most important Beast Tamer.
He didn't want to say more, so Mu Liuyue didn't pursue the matter any further.
After the evolution, Eren's skill list was simplified a lot, but it accurately covered every necessary area.
In addition to [Nightmare], the main attack skills include the S-level [Ghost Flame Sword] for melee slashes, the A-level [Shadow Collapse] for long-range attacks, the S-level [Undead Scourge] for all-around AOE skills, the A-level [Death Knell] for control effect skills, and the S-level [Subspace] which is the cornerstone of all of this and forms the unique field of the Nightmare Knight.
The Beastmaster doesn't need to worry about it at all, as Nightmare Knight has already arranged the moves after evolution very clearly.
Mu Huoyue put away the illustrated information on the investigator's bracelet and breathed a sigh of relief.
It was not until now that she had the sense of finally witnessing the successful evolution of the Tooth Soldier into the Nightmare Knight.
As expected of her, Ellen!
The new skills and characteristics still need further understanding and adjustment, but with the help of the [Training Ground] in the Beast Taming Space, Mu Huoyue believes that she will soon be invincible on the battlefield with Eren.
After staying in the East Bay Cemetery for a while, the Nightmare Knight escorted the Beastmaster back to Xingzhou University.
He moved in the real world in the form of a subspace projection, completely concealing his breath. Even the birds in the sky could not detect the huge extraordinary creature walking in the air beside him.
The bird flew straight through the nightmare horse and flapped its wings into the distance.
Mu Liuyue stared at its unaware back, then retracted her gaze and looked at the head that was nestled comfortably in her arms, refusing to move.
Her idea of subspace projection was indeed feasible. The Nightmare Knight in the projected state was immune to almost all movements in the real world.
There was a small commotion at Seongju University because of this sudden mysterious evolution, but it has almost died down now.
Mu Chuyue saw many students watching the excitement near the banquet hall. They were still discussing the shadow that boiled over in an instant. Many students who had fallen asleep had seen the blue flame roses blooming all over the ground in their dreams.
She let Eren go around in the air and head straight back to the dormitory.
As the Nightmare Horse flew over the battle hall, Eren's grip on the chain reins tightened slightly.
Mu Liuyue looked at the brightly lit fighting hall below. It was so late, and there were still people training inside.
She said thoughtfully: "...Is it the Black Flame Dragon?"
At this time, there are very few imperial race pets left in Xingzhou University. Only the [Black Flame Dragon] contracted by the Arcadia Dragon Master can make Eren, who is also a high-level imperial race, feel nervous.
"Click." (It's okay, it's just testing.)
The head in his arms made a gentle clicking sound, and thick black fog surged up, hiding the figures of the Nightmare Knight and the human girl.
As if sensing something unusual outside, the dragon master in the battle hall frowned slightly and looked up at the empty night sky.
The fleeting glimpse of temptation just now was like mud and stone entering the sea, with no reaction anymore.
The imperial race that evolved tonight... might be more troublesome than expected.
The Dragon Envoy reached out his hand to calm the inexplicably agitated contracted pet, then turned and walked towards his own people to continue the late-night battle practice.
Mu Huoyue returned to her dormitory from the window. It must be said that dark pets are really suitable for stealth at night. No one discovered her along the way.
Lin Lin, who was preparing to go to bed, was startled by the sudden appearance of Mu Chuyue. After seeing the Nightmare Knight beside her, she was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Lin Lin didn't know whether she should continue sleeping or get the evolution data from Mu Chuyue and start writing the report overnight.
When she heard the noise coming from the banquet hall, she knew that the evolution of the Pai Ya Bing would be a big deal. She didn't expect that Mu Liuyue would finally bring back an evolved form of a high-level imperial race.
It turned out to be Nightmare Knight!
When Lin Lin thought about the possibilities behind this and the unlimited expansion of the upper limit of the [Miracle Potential Fruit] project, she felt her breathing quicken.
However, Lin Lin was absolutely unwilling to behave so incompetently in front of Mu Chuyue.
Her words circled around her lips with difficulty, and she looked at her best friend who was trying to flip down from the windowsill, and the ghostly monster beside her, and spoke faintly.
"...Did you try to fly in the air and climb through windows in the middle of the night? Have you taken the pilot's license test, Mu Shuyue?"
Mu Xianyue: "......"
Well, she had indeed forgotten about it.
