...It’s over.

Ann took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

If one counted the "Spider Web" nightmare that didn’t even have a set way to clear, this was indeed the most difficult nightmare he had ever experienced.

This is what a Twisted Tier nightmare is like.

The nightmare left behind by a Gold Rank Transcendent after death almost trapped Annan to death inside it.

What about higher-level nightmares?

According to Paper Princess, beyond Twisted Tier, there are even higher-level nightmares. Twisted Tier nightmares are those condensed after the death of Gold Rank Transcendents.

Then, the more powerful Truth Rank Transcendents, as well as saints and gods after death, will also leave behind nightmares.

——Collectively referred to as [Otherworld Tier] nightmares.

Those are the highest-level nightmares in this world.

These nightmares, or rather "dream worlds," happen because when a soul involves the "Truth," the nightmare it condenses after death already possesses world-like characteristics.

They are no longer projections from the information obtained from the dream realm.

It is more like the hollow space that appears when blowing glass with one’s mouth—a soul carves out a small world in the realm of dreams.

It is a completely deviant, chaotic, and uniquely characteristic nightmare world.

What makes it particularly unique is that, unlike other nightmares, the essence of an Otherworld Tier nightmare isn’t even in this world. This world is merely a key, a door.

Dying in an Otherworld Tier nightmare means truly dying. And dying in the Otherworld, resurrection becomes very difficult.

For this reason, when such powerful beings are about to pass away,

They would rush directly into the depths of the Fog.

After all, they are capable of moving within the Fog.

The goal is to prevent the emergence of Otherworld Tier nightmares within the great barrier, thereby averting catastrophic disasters.

This is also why the search and retrieval of holy relics is a very difficult task.

In most cases, one needs to delve deep into the fog... and also clear Otherworld-tier nightmares to bring back the holy relics.

Fortunately, holy relics also possess self-awareness.

As long as they are not suppressed or sealed, they can fly back on their own when a suitable candidate appears...

"It is indeed a cause for celebration to complete a highly effective purification of a Twisted-tier nightmare at first encounter, but pride must not be entertained,"

Annan crawled out of bed, adjusted the pillow, and murmured softly as he leaned on it, "Claim all decryption rewards... Huh?"

At that moment, Annan suddenly saw a new prompt flashing behind the Silver Knight, one that read[Upgrade Available].

It was the prompt to confirm the allocation of three skill points.

He focused his attention and a new line of prompt appeared:

[Silver Knight LV20+3 (Upgrade Available): Victorious Knight LV3 (Main Attributes: Constitution/Will)]

[Keywords: Tenacity, Stamina, Resistance]

[Mastery: Environment (Nightmare), Resistance to Negative Status, Grappling]

[Upgrade Requirements: Both Will and Constitution must be over 20, both Strength and Agility must be under 20; clear the previous nightmare by failing consecutively over a hundred times without errors, and ultimately achieve victory; a grade of A or above on the previous nightmare; only accessible through advancement from the knight class]

... Is this, a new advancement class?

Annan hesitated for a moment.

This class seemed to be an upgraded form of a tank.

He remembered that, apart from Nightmare, the Silver Knight’s class mastery also included "Single Combat" and "Group Combat." This should correspond to the Silver Knight’s healing abilities and pay-to-win combat abilities.

For Annan, he truly didn’t have great compatibility with pay-to-win warriors like the Silver Knight... If there was an appropriate advancement, he wasn’t opposed to considering it.

After all, if the Silver Knight advanced, only the skills[Hand of Silver]and[Silver Blade Strike]would be lost, and nothing else—the Divine Arts were all obtained through the Cleric class, and what the Silver Knight provided was merely a substantial boost to Constitution.

For every level up, the Silver Knight automatically gained two points of Constitution, with an additional point randomly allocated among the three physical attributes of strength, constitution, and agility.

Such a substantial bonus to Constitution was indeed very high at the Bronze Rank, even frighteningly so... but upon reaching the Silver Rank, and seeing "Frostspeaker" by comparison, Annan felt its bonuses seemed a bit weak.

——I’m going for it!

Annan hesitated a moment longer, but still chose to click on the advancement.

After all, he really wasn’t very suited for the Silver Knight...

In the end, he was the direct descendant of his grandmother, and would eventually return to the Duchy of Winter. When the time came, it wouldn’t be easy to explain to his grandmother if he went back sticking to a knight class like the Silver Knight.

Moreover, the requirements for the Victorious Knight were exceptionally difficult.

If it hadn’t been for Denton’s killing intent, it would have been very difficult to meet those conditions.

The rarer the class, the more one wants to try advancing——

Even if one draws a high-rarity card with low practical utility, it would be much more delightful than drawing a more practical, low-rarity card.

Annan believed that this must be a gamer’s instinct...

Fortunately, the class did not disappoint him.

As a level three Victorious Knight, Annan’s attribute panel soon changed to this:

Attributes: Strength 15, Agility 16, Constitution 37 (+5), Perception 49, Will 31.

——Every level of Victorious Knight would indeed add two more points to Constitution and Will!

This indeed offered more enhancements than the Silver Knight... and moreover, it was a legitimate Silver Rank class.

A common trait of Silver Rank classes is the increase in Will when leveling up.

Because when advancing from Silver to Gold, there will be a hard requirement for Will.

This is one reason why Captain Alexander has not advanced to Gold Rank yet.

But the skills of the Victorious Knight also did not disappoint Annan——
