My Summons Can Learn Skills - Chapter 33
[Skill: Fear and Nightmare of Hell]
[Origin: Abyssal Hell]
[Grade: Gold]
[Magic Attribute: Fiction and Reality, Dark]
[Fear and Nightmare of Hell Level 1: Feature 1: DreamA certain probability that any sleeping creatures will be pulled into the nightmare and both parties will inherit the same skills and weapons as in reality.]
[Fear and Nightmare of Hell Level 1: Feature 2: RealThe enemy’s consciousness will be pulled into the nightmare while the caster enters it, so the caster can use any artifacts. The target can use any worn magical artifacts or skills. All damage inflicted on the target in the nightmare will show up on the body in the real world as well.]
[Fear and Nightmare of Hell Level 1: Feature 3: DemonsIn the nightmare world, the caster will temporarily transform into the Demon of Fear. All HP and MP will be converted to equivalent fear points, which can be used both to sustain HP and release skills. The body of the demon has no Achilles’ heel and cannot be killed even if the head is separated until the fear points reach zero.]
[Success Rate: 50% if base Intelligence is the same as the target. A 1% increase for every point above the target, and a 2% decrease for every point below the target.]
[Learning Requirements: Base Intelligence 20, demonic bloodline.]
[Warning: When the skill stops being used, regardless of victory or defeat in the nightmare, the caster will enter a state of weakness with a 50% reduction of the three primary attributes for 10 minutes.]
[Note: This skill is one of the three melodies in the Final Chapter of Hell’s Chapter of Fear. When combined with the other two melodies in the Chapter of Nightmare, this skill will be greatly enhanced!]
[Description: Freddy went to hell after his death. He made a pact with the demons and obtained part of the power of the Final Chapter of Hell’s Chapter of Fear, but only demons can unleash its greatest power.]
[Remark: When you’re terrified, I’m your nightmare!]
This skill made Chen Gou feel appalled.
The power of inheriting Freddy’s nightmare abilities was undoubtedly strong.
As long as the enemy was pulled into the nightmare, he would get a true and complete magical body with shared HP and MP. His combat power would not weaken in the slightest as long as there was still a little of HP and MP left.
Since he would be entering the nightmare himself, while the other party’s mind went in, he could use recovery potions but the other party could not.
In short
If they were on par, the caster would have a huge advantage in the nightmare.
If his combat power was weaker, he would still be able to erase the gap and even gain a small advantage in the nightmare.
Aside from the high learning requirements, this skill was graded gold mostly because of the prerequisite of casting it: The target had to be asleep!
An Awakener was full of energy and could easily last several days without sleep under normal circumstances, let alone when one was more aroused in battle.
Therefore, if he wanted to use this skill, he would have to knock his target out first besides waiting idly for a sneak attack.
Why had Freddy only killed ordinary villagers and not Demon Hunters?
This wasn’t because of fear, but because Demon Hunters barely slept while they were on a mission!
“The greatest value of this skill lies in its potential. Its identity as one of the three melodies of the Final Chapter of Hell’s Chapter of Fear makes its value skyrocket,” Tony said as he kept that in mind constantly. He had naturally checked the attributes of this skill before.
“What’s the Final Chapter of Hell?” Chen Gou asked curiously.
Tony explained, “The abysses in the Blue Wave World can be divided into nine levels according to their strengths and weaknesses. The Abyssal Hell is one of the highest levels. A human has never returned after going in.
“Since there is no fixed temporal rift, there isn’t a fixed gateway either. The Void Stone will also fail in a high-level abyss, so anyone who goes in through the temporary rift will be like a sinking stone.
“Demons from hell will also invade the Blue Wave World through the temporary rift, and all our information on the Abyssal Hell was obtained by capturing or killing these demons.
“According to the demons, the Abyssal Hell has many demon kings such as the Demon King of Destruction, the Demon King of Fear, and the Demon King of Pain. The dark magic that each demon king has constitutes one of the chapters of hell. When all these chapters are combined, they will become the Final Chapter of Hell.
“It was said that whoever had the Final Chapter of Hell would master the ultimate arcana of the dark magic and thus automatically become the Demon Emperor of Hell.
“It sounds incredible, but I guess none of the demon kings of hell can force the other demon kings to submit, so Hell has never had an emperor, has it?
“However, this is good news for us. If Hell was truly unified, the gates of Hell would have opened widely to await the Blue Wave World and an endless army of demons would have come bearing down.”
Chen Gou nodded, as this was indeed true. A divided hell was the best kind of hell for humans.
“Since there is a Final Chapter of Hell, is there a Final Chapter of Light as well?”
Chen Gou put away the Skill Crystal and was happy when his gaze landed on Freddy’s body.
It had indeed been a huge risk to successfully finish off Freddy this time.
Although Freddy only seemed to be at Level 20, his combat power was at least above Level 30 in the nightmare.
When he had used Fear and Nightmare of Hell, the skill had been more powerful than described, apparently because his demonic bloodline had given an extra boost to the skill.
Fortunately, his weakness had been very fatal. Once he had been taken to the real world, his strength had plummeted to Level 10, or even less than that.
“There is no Final Chapter of Light, not that I have heard of at least.” Tony shook his head to reject Chen Gou’s speculation.
Meanwhile, the Wildfire Team had started to clean up the battlefield.
Demon Hunters had an established process for dealing with demons’ remains. The first step was collecting their blood.
A demon’s blood was one of the most valuable things on them, as it could be given to a potion master of the Covenant to make the bloodline potion.
This was how most of the bloodline potions of the Covenant were made.
Of course, there was a certain chance of failure.
Freddy did not have much blood left in his body, so his blood was only enough for two vials. Angeline, who didn’t dare get a share of it, gave it all to Chen Gou.
The next step was burning the remains.
Many demons had the strange ability to be resurrected, so Demon Hunters would normally feel relieved only after burning a demon’s remains.
Upon seeing this scene, Chen Gou silently nodded.
The Wildfire Team might not be that strong, but its discipline was worthy of recognition.
“Thank you for helping us get rid of the demon, Sirs. This is a little gift from all the villagers. Please accept it.”
The old village chief walked over with a fist-sized bag and spoke with a smile.
Without even looking, it was clear that Crystal Coins were inside. The Covenant had re-forged them from Magic Origin Crystals, as this was the official currency within the sphere of influence of the Church of the Covenant.
Although its form had changed, Awakeners could absorb the Magic Origin inside to increase their Awakened Levels just like Magic Origin Crystals.
“It’s for you guys.”
Tony took the bag and gave it to Angeline before saying, “We are members of the Abyssal Knight Team’s left flank, the Long Song Team. You can ask around about the garrison by yourself. If we’re absent, you can just speak with housekeeper Ayun.”
Angeline had played a huge role in killing Freddy and had gained Tony’s approval through her practical actions.
“Got it, sir.” Angeline lowered her head and thanked him.
The other four members also showed respect as they watched Chen Gou and Tony leave.
In less than half an hour, they had also witnessed the strength of the two young Abyssal Knights.
The demon could have easily wiped out the Wildfire Team if he’d wanted to, but the two of them had turned the tables, pulled the demon into the real world, and killed him within a few seconds.
This was a promising performance.
“It’s no wonder that the commander of the knights would task the two of them with rebuilding the Long Song Team. If one of them was placed in another team, they could cultivate as a reserve captain,” Angeline said in a moment of reflection. She had grown up in Panshi City and had heard of the Long Song Team. This all-powerful team of the past was now like a dragon in the abyss.
