“Tony, it’s your turn!”

The moment Chen Gou opened his eyes, he frantically stepped back, took a vial of bloodworm essence extract out of the storage space with his right hand, and poured it into his mouth. He then shouted, “If you don’t finish off this demon within three seconds, I will…”

“I will let you kick my head around like a ball!”

Tony roared toward the sky. Chen Gou had kept his promise and brought the demon out of the nightmare.

It was now time for him to fulfill his promise!

He activated his innate skills, and a golden lion’s shadow once again appeared behind him.

The lion’s shadow no longer floated. Instead, it entered his body and fused with it.

In the blink of an eye, Tony’s figure was replaced by a realistic male lion.

He was bound by three black chains all over as if he was draped in a piece of chain mail, yet it seemed like some kind of seal from hell that gave off a terrifying aura.

This lion was majestic and mysterious and radiated a great sense of oppression as it appeared.

“It’s the Three-Chain Hell Lion!”

Angeline gasped upon seeing it.

The Arslan Family was extremely prestigious and highly regarded in Panshi City, and many things related to the family were no secret.

Due to the ancient lion bloodline flowing in them, the Awakeners of this family had innate skills mostly related to the ancient lion.

However, different individuals had different innate skills when it came to performance, and of course, there was a difference in strength.

The Hell Lion was one of the strangest skills.

Those with this innate skill were accompanied by the soul of a Hell Lion, which was considered to be one of the monarchs of Hell and had evil and terrifying power.

A newly-awakened human would not be able to bear its power, so the Hell Lion’s soul would be born with chains.

The black chains sealed the power of Hell within it!

Each time a chain was unlocked, part of the power of Hell would return.

It was said that the Arslan Family had an unrivaled son whose Hell Lion soul had nine chains!

Tony’s lion soul only had three chains, which was rather inferior.

However, that depended on who it was going up against.

Most people considered even a Hell Lion with one chain a top-notch skill.

Bam!

With a thud, one of the three black chains was broken.

Strange black lines emerged on the golden lion’s body, which was no longer holy.

“I’ve been waiting for a long time!”

The lion’s eyes became black, and its head was hideously frightening. It then lunged forward with its mouth open.

“Ah!”

Freddy’s miserable scream was heard almost instantly.

He raised his metal right claws, wanting to fight against the lion’s claw, but the black lion hit his right shoulder and caused it to shatter.

His right arm was also severed by the sharp lion’s claw!

Bam!

When the miserable scream came to an abrupt end, the black lion’s second hit smashed Freddy’s ugly head, causing black blood and the contents of his head to splatter in a disgusting manner.

It took around five seconds, a little more than the promised three seconds, but it didn’t matter.

The moment Freddy was killed, Chen Gou heard a system notification.

“System notification: The Long Song Team has killed a famous nightmare demon, Freddy, who was at Awakened Level 20. 4,300 Awakening Points have been obtained. The host has received a share of 2,150 points.”

“System notification: The host has reached Awakened Level 7. A Magic Origin Light has been obtained.”

“System notification: The host has reached Awakened Level 8. A Magic Origin Light has been obtained.”

Chen Gou had initially been at Awakened Level 6. By killing Freddy, who was a dozen levels above them, Chen Gou and Tony managed to level up by two levels thanks to their share of Awakening Points.

They even had an extra 410 points.

It’s true that the greater the risk, the greater the reward. These are just the basic Awakening Points.

There will also be Skill Crystals or artifacts dropped by Freddy. This is clearly not a two-star mission issued by headquarters, but at least a three-star mission. The merits and rewards will also increase significantly…

While Chen Gou was pondering this, he used three Magic Origin Lights simultaneously to raise his base Agility.

He had kept the Magic Origin Light from the previous two times, so he had four of them when he added the two he had just obtained.

By using three, he could raise his base Agility from 4 to 10 points!

Summoners were supposed to go down the path that focused on Intelligence and enhanced their ranging abilities, but Chen Gou was special.

Unlike other summoners, he had a platinum-grade skill called Morph, which could allow him to morph into a warrior.

That way, he could have remarkable melee abilities if he wanted to.

Therefore, Agility and Strength were more important to him than to other summoners.

Besides, even Awakeners who enhanced their Intelligence to the extreme would have their base Strength and Agility break through 10 points.

This was because, although the cost of getting these two additional abilities break through was small, large benefits could be obtained.

Chen Gou’s ability to pull Freddy from the nightmare to reality was a living example of this.

Without HP Resistance to forcefully remove all negative effects, he wouldn’t have chosen to enter the nightmare.

Not even if Angeline could ensure that he would certainly regain consciousness as long as the Soul Link was disconnected.

How could he put his hopes on others when his life belonged to him alone?

He had dared to make this bet mainly because he possessed the trump card called “HP Resistance”.

“System notification: The host’s base Agility has reached 10 points and broken through the first critical point. The host has obtained an additional ability of the Agility Attribute: Night Speed—In the dark, the attack and movement speed will increase by 30%.”

Does this mean that I will be in an excited state at night?

Chen Gou couldn’t help but rub his chin. This additional ability was not an insignificant boost to his melee combat ability.

His current Agility was just base Agility without any boost by magical artifacts. Therefore, the speed boost of Night Speed was basically equal to 40% of his full speed.

Given this increase of nearly 50%, it was definitely very strong.

However, it had a very fatal flaw, as it could only be used at night.

After all, most people were active during the day, and demons didn’t just appear at night.

Besides, demons were not the only enemies of Awakeners.

At any time and in any world, there was bound to be internal fighting wherever humans were found…

For the sake of their team ranking and getting more resources allocated to them, there was no shortage of fights within the Abyssal Knight Team in the open or in the dark.

However, overall, Night Speed was a very powerful trump card.

As long as the conditions were met, he would be able to catch his enemies off guard with a sudden outburst of it.

“A silver-grade claw-like magical weapon and a gold-grade Skill Crystal… You risked your life this time, so the Skill Crystal will be yours. I’ll take the claw. Is that okay?”

Chen Gou came back to his senses and saw Tony holding the claws on Freddy’s right hand in his left hand while a Skill Crystal emitting golden light was in his right hand.

“A gold-grade Skill Crystal?”

Chen Gou’s eyes lit up as he quickly nodded and reached out to take the crystal.

Tony was still a bit reluctant to give it to him, so Chen Gou only managed to take it after tugging at it twice…
