CHAPTER 492: CHAPTER 483: SPECIAL CLASS DEMON, NIGHTMARE KNIGHT

Demon Talent: Special category of demon, no talent.

Demon Skills: Special category of demon, no skills.

Other Options: Cannot be enchanted within a host, mountable.

The Nightmare Horse is just an ordinary Level 4 Demon. Besides its agility attribute being somewhat notable, there are no other special aspects, not even demon skills or talents.

However, the Demon that appeared following the Nightmare Horse in Bai Yan’s pupil inevitably caused one’s heart to tremble.

This was the Level 5 Demon that emerged after the final territorial upgrade.

Name: Demon Warrior (Level 5 Middle Rank Demon).

Age: 5,265 years old.

Status: Demon, Humanoid.

Camp: Chaotically Evil.

Physical Attributes: Strength 686, Agility 426, Constitution 412, Intelligence 19.

Demon Talent: Demon Army Soul, Passive Talent, once enter a war state, it can trigger group war skills and greatly enhance one’s aura and strength.

Demon Skills: Demon’s Faith, Passive Skill + War Skills, activation requires over a hundred Demon Warriors; damage received by any Demon Warrior is shared among all Demon Warriors.

Special Sub-category: Fusing one Demon Warrior with one Nightmare Horse Demon evolves, having a 1% chance of producing a Nightmare Knight (Level 6 Demon), prerequisite: requires using the demon power of a Level 6 Demon for the fusion.

Other Options: Can select one Demon to transform into Demon Power and enhance a host from within.

The Demon Warrior’s attributes are pretty balanced, with fairly unique talents and skills, though nothing too outstanding. However, there’s no doubt that the Demon Warrior is most suitable for group combat amongst demon species.

Yet, the introductions to its last special sub-category are what perplexed and excited Bai Yan the most.

Could it be possible to breed an entirely new Demon through the fusion of two Demons?

Such an event had never happened before!

The Abyss Territory under Bai Yan’s control had previously seen Demons devouring each other, but never fusing.

This was the first such occurrence.

Bai Yan quickly selected the option for the Nightmare Knight, wanting to inspect this new Demon.

Name: Nightmare Knight (Level 6 Middle Rank Demon).

Age: 6,738 years old.

Status: Demon, Special Class.

Camp: Chaotically Evil.

Physical Attributes: Strength 2100, Agility 1356, Constitution 2000, Intelligence 62.

Demon Talent: Knight Soul, Passive Talent, once entering a war state, it can trigger group war skills and double one’s strength and aura.

Demon Skills: Knight’s Faith, Passive Skill + War Skills, activation requires over a hundred Nightmare Warriors; damage received by any Nightmare Knight is shared among all Nightmare Warriors, and damage received is reduced by 50%.

Special Demon Skill (War Series): Demon Knight’s Roar, Active Skill + War Skill + Charge Skill, activation requires over a hundred Nightmare auras; all Nightmare Knights’ Attack Power is doubled, and upon leveling up, will gain other special Demon Skills.

Other Options: Cannot be enchanted within a host but can respond to the Lord’s summon to join battles.

After going through the extensive attributes of the Nightmare Knight, Bai Yan was silent for a long time.

After a while, he slowly exhaled, his heart pounding with shock.

Undoubtedly, the Nightmare Knight was the best type of Demon for a Demon Lord to form a Demon Army – they were natural soldiers! Far more formidable than the four legions Bai Yan had previously selected and contemplated!

A single Nightmare Knight can only exert the power of their four major attributes, but once there are over a hundred Nightmare Knights, they can unlock special skills from the Demon War series!

For a simple comparison, if Bai Yan now had a hundred Nightmare Knights.

Then upon entering a state of war and activating the [Knight Soul] talent, their four major attributes would double!

A strength value of 2100 would turn into 4200!

Attributes such as agility, constitution, and intelligence would all double as well!

And with the special [Demon Knight’s Roar] war skill, the attack power would double again on this basis!

A charging attack with a strength value as high as 8400!

It could be said that a wave of Nightmare Knight charges could even slaughter dozens of level seven Demons!

Especially [Knight’s Faith], which significantly enhances their defensive power in a way—reducing damage by fifty percent!

It’s practically the collective version of Bai Yan’s [Symbiotic] Demon Lord Talent!

And!

The most crucial point!

The Nightmare Knights are a complete set of upgrade paths that can be cultivated to reach the status of a level nine high-rank Demon! Establishing a level nine Demon cavalry regiment!

There’s no need to worry about the Nightmare Knights becoming obsolete when their power rises too high.

In other words, it’s like playing a computer game on the Main Plane where players can use this super servant till death without worrying about version patches, updates, or stealth damage nerfs by the officials!

A Demon Race to use for a lifetime!

However, no matter how powerful and perfect this Demon Race, it will have its flaws.

That is their low intelligence and the inability to bestow it upon Demon Servants.

This is what deeply regrets Bai Yan; most of the Demons he selected have low intelligence, which is why he chose to arrange his Demon Army with the concept of Demon Servants + powerful Demons.

Only the cunning and intelligent humans can flexibly unleash the full strength of Demons.

Even high-intelligence Demon Spirit Demons are only because they are proficient in Demon magic and thus have a high intelligence attribute, but when it comes to on-the-spot adaptability and intellectual issues, no Demon can compare to humans.

Even an existence so powerful that it surpasses level nine Demons may not be as cunning as an ordinary human.

Wisdom will always be humanity’s greatest talent.

Unfortunately!

The Nightmare Knights cannot be bestowed upon Demon Servants and can only be controlled by Bai Yan alone, unable to be placed under the command of people like Qin Jiuluo.

"Tsk, what a pity!"

Bai Yan shook his head, sighed lightly, and murmured to himself with a wry smile, "It seems that heaven wants me to form a Personal Guard Army..."

Indeed, other than the Personal Guard Army, there is no position more suitable for the Nightmare Knights.

To follow their lord into battle, to conquer thousands of miles!

This is the true essence of the Nightmare Knights!

After all, no one but Bai Yan could command the Nightmare Knights.

Bai Yan took a deep breath, carefully extracted the information of these few Demons, and made a record.

The model has been established, now what he needs to do is to level up gradually.

The tens of thousands of Demon Servants under his command are mostly third-level combat personnel, and high-level personnel like Qin Jiuluo are enhanced with level four Demons.

It may take a while before establishing an army solely comprised of level five or even level six Nightmare Knight Demons.

Right now, looking at these Demons, he can only salivate with envy.

Currently, the Demon energy on Bai Yan is still not sufficient for him to cultivate a large-scale level five Demon Army.

But with the strong support of the Biochemical Plane, providing a constant supply of Demon energy, Bai Yan is confident that in the near future, he will be able to build the invincible Demon Army he envisions.

Right now, Bai Yan’s first goal is to quickly perfect the construction of the four major armies and Personal Guard Army, using these few Demons as models, rapidly expanding his strength, and conquering more planes!

Until he unveils all of his past life’s legacy and secrets!

When that time comes.

Where my treasured sword points, my soldiers shall conquer thousands of miles!

If the Demon Army under Bai Yan’s command is upgraded to level nine strength, even when facing powerful gods, Bai Yan dares to fight!
