Chapter 378

In the eyes of many Deep Space Knights, that incredibly shocking scene just now remains vivid.

Deep Space Giant Beast, the pinnacle of beast disasters, to be able to fight such a thing is every knight's lifelong wish.

The giant beast that suddenly appeared just now indeed shocked many, but what followed was excitement; they were eager to improve.

Every being capable of becoming a Deep Space Knight is not weak; even a newly minted knight, in a sense, is capable of single-handedly slaying a major disaster.

Knights have no ability to produce supplies; they only have a Deep Space Giant Sword to maintain basic spiritual energy use, so the biggest problem in becoming a knight is lack of money....

But this is not a bad thing; driving away disasters, serving as guards, challenging the strong—these are what every knight constantly does.

And when those rigid knights watched Zhang Jie casually summon a Deep Space Giant Beast, their Dao hearts nearly shattered....

"The Alliance's second-in-command... really is surprising."

Upon seeing the Deep Space Giant Beast before her again, 'Little Aunt' was still shocked by its enormity, but what shocked her most was the casual means by which it could be summoned.

Imagine, without any preparation, Zhang Jie infiltrates a civilization's homeworld and releases a Star-swallowing Giant Beast.....

It is simply more terrifying than the Star Sea's nuclear bomb 'Dawn Judgment'.

"That's enough, give it a try?"

Gazing at the Deep Space Giant Beast hovering in space, 'Little Aunt' nodded, stepped forward slowly, and placed her hand on the Nightmare's smooth, soft body.

"It has a physical form; there should be no problem."

'Little Aunt' said, gradually closing her eyes as a mysterious spiritual energy welled up from deep within her body, slowly spreading over the Nightmare Giant Beast.

In an instant, golden patterns flashed across the Nightmare Giant Beast's body, spreading from a single point until its entire massive form was completely covered.

This color scheme suddenly reminded Zhang Jie of the Nightmare simulation, that Nightmare under his command named Red Vein.

Thinking about it now, I really miss it.

But at this moment, in the blink of an eye, the colossal Nightmare comparable to a star shrank rapidly like deflating, eventually becoming a being roughly the height of an Insect Knight.

"This isn't Red Vein, is it!!!"

Looking at this guy's form, an extremely familiar figure overlaps with it, even to the point of being identical!

Zhang Jie dares to affirm that this guy is exactly the likeness of Red Vein!

"I actually really succeeded...."

The insect-race knight beside him gazed at the new recruit before him, and its six tiny compound eyes suddenly flashed with excited light.

You should know, its actual true form is not much different from this guy in front of you, and the stronger the calamity, the greater the talent it gains upon becoming a Deep Space Knight.

At this moment, only one thought filled his mind.

"Mr. Zhang Jie, forgive my bold request."

"Please be sure to entrust this new recruit to me for training!"

"Ah? Oh, sure."

This isn't an unreasonable request; it's just that Zhang Jie's attention isn't on it right now.

Just as the Nightmare Beast transformed into a Deep Space Knight, the simulator suddenly showed a new response.

"The status of the talent "Nightmare King" has been updated!"

"New effect "Dream‑Awakened Knight" added!"

"Dream‑Awakened Knight: When facing a gift from a Deep Space Knight, a warrior personally enlightened by an Emperor Knight will possess extraordinarily powerful talent and ability! They will have self‑awareness and will unconditionally obey your will!"

"Dream‑Awakened Knights can observe the precepts and also possess special abilities linked to their true form!"

"But note, each Dream‑Awakened Knight born from a calamity is unique! It can only be formed from a Nightmare transformed from a perfect‑body calamity, and it only takes effect when personally enlightened by the current Emperor Knight."

"Current Dream‑Awakened Knight (unnamed), transformed true form (Deep Space Giant Beast)"

"Hiss...."

"There's something!"

Zhang Jie barely managed to grasp the meaning of this.

In other words, only the ultimate calamity's final product like the Star‑Swallowing Giant Beast or the Star‑Devouring Insect Emperor, after being turned into a Nightmare and then enlightened by the "Little Aunt"'s hand, counts as a true Dream‑Awakened Knight.

Although it's troublesome, after all it's quite a valuable combat force; later, together with Lin Ran, we'll go capture another Star‑Devouring Insect Emperor—how wonderful would that be.

"Congratulations, this is the second knight in Deep Space Knight history to be transformed from a Deep Space Giant Beast."

The Little Aunt looked at Zhang Jie with a smile, and she was very pleased with this result.

"The second? Who was the first?"

"Cough...."

The insect-race knight coughed once, then looked toward the Little Aunt with a probing expression.

"It's my mother."

"!!!"

"Your mother?"

"The Little Aunt's expression remained normal; she merely gave a slight nod."

After such a long period of development, there are hardly any pure‑blood humans left among the Deep Space Knights.

"But unfortunately, my father is someone who ascended to the Emperor Knight throne as a pure‑blood human."

"Wait, wait, let me think this through...."

Weiniya beside him had already understood everything the moment the Little Aunt spoke those words.

At this moment, her eyes glittered with the light of gossip as she carefully examined the Little Aunt's blond hair, and a special question arose in her mind.

"Um, that is, the Deep Space Giant Beast is oviparous, you know...."

At the same moment, Zhang Jie's brain was racing.

"The Little Aunt's father is human, and her mother is a knight transformed from a Deep Space Giant Beast...."

Cough, this part about entering the beast....

The Knight's Oath is truly powerful; it can actually cross the species barrier....

"This... this I don't really know."

"'Auntie' rarely showed such an embarrassed expression; Weiniya also scratched her head awkwardly—her question was indeed rather presumptuous."

At this moment, the deep space knight that had just been transformed from Zhang Jie's nightmare beast slowly rose to its feet.

Unlike the others, golden patterns flowed across his body, starting from his chest and spreading all over.

"'Leader, please give me a name.'"

A deep voice suddenly entered Zhang Jie's mind, and naturally the source of the voice was the newly born knight before him.

"'Hmm... let's call you Golden Vein.'"

"'Thank you, Leader.'"

Zhang Jie thought the other party would address him with some other title, like 'master' or possibly even 'father'.

But looking at it now, this leader's title is still quite satisfactory.

At this moment, the insect clan knight gazed at the golden vein that had risen to the same height as him, a flash of light in his eyes, and he stepped forward.

"State your name, recruit!"

"You can call me Phil·Symons! From now on, I will be your instructor!"
