Ringo had returned to Aquamarine, to a hidden and reinforced base, he was alone as he prepared for the next advance.

  The difference between a Grade B and a Grade Calamity lies in the level of their life form. After entering Grade A, the genes would be optimized to become even more perfect, in Ringo's case, it would be an opportunity to recycle what was useful and get rid of what was useless, even more so with all those genes in his genetic makeup.

  The body would become more adapted to releasing energy and energy loss would also be greatly reduced. At the same time, even energy production would be transformed. In layman's terms, not only could a Grade A Super fight for longer, but they could also inflict more damage. This was also why Grade A fighters were known as Calamity Grade.

  As the name itself suggests, provided they released energy, a Super Grade A would definitely be capable of causing havoc similar to a natural disaster on a planet in a short amount of time. Before the emergence of Grade S, Grade A was the strongest level in the galaxy.

  Tornadoes, tsunamis, earthquakes, eruptions... a planet could be doomed if a Grade A star released energy for long enough. It's no wonder that Han Xiao's battle against the shadows of the Thousand Shadows nearly caused Aquamarine to collapse.

  And at that moment, Ringo was ready to enter that level.

  The moment Ringo released the energy stored in his genes, a powerful wave of energy leaked out. Everyone at Hell headquarters was slightly shocked as they felt a mild earthquake. The control room was already analyzing the origin of the seismic spike and it pointed directly to Hell!

  But few people knew what was going on, Melissa, as the current director, was one of the few who did.

  Her eyes narrowed as she clenched her fists slightly, this power frightened her, but inside she was happy for her son, also a little nervous, hoping that Ringo could advance safely.

  Ringo didn't know what was happening outside, but inside the closed room, his consciousness returned to the dark, starry space that represented the pool of galactic species.

  Without looking at other species, Ringo wanted to first complete the nightmare species, so he could fully unlock the genetic limits, this meant that even without evolving again, he could continue progressing.

  A powerful species, when it reaches the top, has this privilege.

  The options had now narrowed considerably and Ringo considered them lightly for a while before choosing an option that pleased him.

  Master of Nightmares, with his clairvoyant abilities, could discover future abilities now without actually entering the species, among them, it was the Master of Nightmares that pleased him the most.

  Focusing on control, considering the parasite in his soul, advancing on the psychic aspect of the nightmare race was a smart choice in his opinion.

  Thus the evolution began, the purple energy of the nightmare merged with Ringo's white energy to complete the synthesis process of the new species, based on his previous choices.

  It didn't take long for the evolution to finish, but the changes weren't many, the only noticeable difference was his lilac hair turning pitch black and some black lines, like runic inscriptions or veins, running across his body.

  You could be reading stolen content. Head to the original site for the genuine story.

  They were extremely thin, almost imperceptible, but they were there.

  As soon as the evolution ended, the advancement wasn't over yet. Ringo felt his body exploding with energy, his body was saturated as his Super cells changed at high speed, as if guided by an invisible hand, shifting to a completely superior state, like comparing the hardness between coal and diamond, his cells adjusted to a superior state.

  The strengthening was astronomical, so much so that Ringo felt he could destroy a planet with a single punch.

  Sure, it was just a change of mindset due to the sudden excess of power, but it illustrated how much he had been improved.

  If it were before he entered Grade A, he could kill hundreds of himself without effort.

  The change was so drastic that he became even more fearful when he thought about Grade S. If this was just entering Calamity Grade, what would it be like to enter Grade S? Would the planet explode?

  It's not impossible.

  Taking a deep breath, Ringo's energy exploded outwards, but unlike before when it was confined to his skin, this time the white energy flowed endlessly, going from underground to the surface, tens of kilometers away, forming a whitish dome.

  Everyone in Hell and beyond was shocked, then, as if guided by an invisible hand, they felt a lightness within them, a desire to practice and train, their cells leaped with joy, fatigue gradually diminished and damage slowly healed.

  Everyone in that area felt a slow but steady improvement.

  Ringo, inside the room, was smiling, this field of evolutionary energy was something he had awakened after advancing.

  This wasn't even an ability awakened by genetic advancement like Degeneration and the Super Gene Lock, it was simply caused by the advancement to Grade A. Ringo became able to emit his energy outwards, in that field, he could not only help but also harm.

  Anyone below Grade Calamity in that field could be killed directly by Degeneration, Ringo could also completely lock away their Super gene.

  At higher levels, the effect diminished, but it could still cause problems for enemies, such as limiting the gene to reduce the enemy's combat power or inflicting debuffs caused by mutations.

  The downside is that this skill is incredibly consuming, the wider the field it opens up, the greater the consumption.

  Thus, Ringo quickly regained his Super energy, outside, people were stunned, whether by the initial earthquake or by the coming and going of the whitish energy.

  Ringo clenched his fists, feeling the power contained within his body, he longed to get out and punch something.

  His excitement was evident, but he held back for now, he couldn't break his own foundation.

  It was only when Ringo remembered Esgod that he calmed down completely.

  Not yet, he wasn't ready, he needed more work!

  Taking a deep breath, Ringo tried to feel if he had unlocked any new abilities, but unfortunately, without an interface, he would have to slowly search for them. Putting that aside, he began to familiarize himself with his Master of Nightmares abilities.

  The Master of Nightmares main ability is mind control, he already possessed this before, but now it was much more advanced, to the point where a simple glance could place someone under his command. In terms of mental power, he shouldn't be much worse than a Psychic of the same level.

  Furthermore, he acquired two interesting abilities, the first was summoning nightmares, he could now summon servants from the nightmare dimension on his own.

  They could be called upon at any time to fight for him.

  The second is somewhat similar, he could create nightmares, he could corrupt a living being with nightmare energy to the point that it becomes a nightmare. These corrupted beings are considered "inferior", they are basically zombie-like creatures, brainless, with simple aggression ingrained in their genes.

  This ability was called Nightmare Corruption, along with it, he had the ability to turn these corrupted beings into Servants of Nightmares. Basically, he could control someone as if they were a clone of the nightmare, but in this case, he first needed to corrupt the target, then control them, even from a distance, he could still maintain control, although currently it was limited to 5.

  Their usefulness was somewhat limited because the targets corrupted by the nightmare were easily discernible, so they could only be used as weapons.

  But imagine controlling 5 Grade A Supers to fight alongside you...

  Ringo was very excited by this power, already planning to assemble a squad of elite nightmare servants.

  Furthermore, these nightmare servants can be kept in the nightmare dimension and summoned at any time.

  Once he reached Grade S, would he be able to control another Grade S?

  He thought it was unlikely, after all, their control over their bodies is too strong to be corrupted. It's not that easy to control Grade S Supers, which is a shame.
