A Dragon against the Whole World

"Hmm, not bad."

Galos nodded, showing approval.

His gaze fell on Zoraya’s beautiful and unique forked dragon horns, and he suddenly said, "Use your most powerful skill to attack me."

Upon hearing this, Zoraya raised her head in surprise.

Faced with the calm yet undeniable gaze of the Red Iron Dragon, she immediately realized his seriousness, and solemnly replied, "As you command, Dragon Lord. However, please be careful, my attack is not just simple Thunder Element damage."

With that, she took a deep breath of the cold air and raised her elongated neck high.

Crackle—Crackle—!

Arcs of electricity, different from the usual Blue Dragon, emerald green in color, jumped and flickered between her scale armor and rapidly converged toward the tips of her forked dragon horns.

Ultimately, between her horns, a glowing, unstable thunderball with a dangerous emerald green light was formed.

Swoosh!

The emerald green thunderball seemed to teleport and disappeared in a flash, only to solidly strike the broad and strong chest of the Red Iron Dragon the next instant.

At the moment of impact, Galos didn’t feel the anticipated intense physical shock.

His body didn’t even sway slightly.

However, as soon as the thunderball made contact, it exploded violently into countless web-like emerald green arcs, crackling and madly spreading over his surface, weaving into an extremely corrosive net of lightning.

These electrical arcs carried a strong energy erosion effect.

They penetrated through Galos’ dense dragon scale defense, infiltrating deep into his body.

Apart from causing a tingling and piercing sensation, Galos also felt sudden dizziness, an uncontrollable itch in his throat, and intense cramping pain in his abdomen... various negative states attacked simultaneously.

The area of scale armor directly hit by the thunderball even began to show marks resembling pustules.

He felt like he had suddenly been struck by a potent composite toxin, with an overwhelming sense of discomfort throughout his body.

No wonder it could affect even the semi-elemental Heart of Thunder, it’s indeed remarkable.

He thought to himself.

However, for Galos, this discomfort enveloping his entire body oddly brought a kind of distorted comfort.

"Feels pretty good."

The Red Iron Dragon gave Zoraya a commendatory glance.

His main source of poison resistance came from the Cliff Snake Dragon poison absorbed years ago.

But that was quite a long time ago.

As his life level continually elevated and his body grew increasingly strong, Galos’ poison resistance had passively increased. However, compared to other resistances such as flame, lightning, and ice, the increase was relatively limited and gradually lagging behind his overall defense level.

Zoraya’s poison could precisely help him address this vulnerability and conduct targeted resistance training.

Blue Dragon Zoraya paused for a moment, then her gaze flickered sharply.

Blue Dragon Zoraya was taken aback for a moment, then her eyes sparkled, keenly capturing the genuine interest in the Red Iron Dragon’s eyes.

"As you wish, my Dragon Lord."

She held nothing back and began to gather energy to the fullest, unleashing one emerald green thunderball after another at Galos’ mighty form.

Time passed leisurely.

By the time Zoraya’s energy was nearly depleted, the Red Iron Dragon’s entire body was enveloped in dense, unbreakable emerald green arcs, with a continuous crackling sound.

His body exhibited obvious signs of poisoning, with severe corrosion marks on his scales.

Yet he remained steadfast, as if the negative states that would cause other Giant Dragons to collapse in pain were merely another form of baptism for him.

At this moment, Zoraya panted heavily, and said in a low voice, "The physiques of the Giant Dragons under your command are exceptional, and you yourself are impossibly strong."

"Could I request your guidance in training? I wish to learn your training methods and strive to become as strong as you."

Almost every time she came, she saw the Red Iron Dragon tirelessly exercising.

Thus, she seized the opportunity and made this request.

"Hmph, scheming dragon!"

The Red Silver Dragon snorted coldly in her heart, propped herself up, and forced a slightly stiff smile at Zoraya.

"Want to learn? I can teach you the basics on behalf of Galos."

She didn’t want this Blue Dragon to monopolize opportunities to interact with Galos.

Zoraya clearly sensed the hostility from the Red Silver Dragon.

She was unaffected, giving a gentle and harmless smile, and said, "Sure, that would truly be my honor." She paused, showing a look of concern, and glanced at Deborah, "However, you seem very tired already. Don’t you need to rest for a while first? I can wait."

The Red Silver Dragon pulled out a bottle of Magic Potion that can quickly restore stamina without hesitation and gulped it down.

"No need, I’m fine. We can start now."

She struggled to stand fully upright, motioning Zoraya to follow, "This place is too cramped, follow me to another area where I can properly instruct you."

She emphasized the word "instruct," and then led Blue Dragon Zoraya away from Galos, heading to another side of the training field.

The whole Dragon Valley, influenced by Galos’ actions, seemed to transform into a giant training field filled with the scent of sweat and exertion.

After Blue Dragon and Red Silver Dragon left, Galos remained focused, concentrating on his own training projects.

Afterward, he took some time to spread his wings and fly high, training agility amidst the howling snowstorm.

At the valley bottom below, Alberto, who was tinkering with his dragon horns, paused when he saw this scene.

"Galos, watch out!"

With a firm belief in "Fight repeatedly despite defeat, persist despite failure," he let out a spirited dragon roar, once more diving towards the sky with enthusiasm.

Then, as usual, he was treated like a spinning top in the sky, being repeatedly beaten.

Yet Alberto seemed to enjoy it, gritting his teeth and persisting through each hit, attempting to find an opportunity for counterattack or improvement.

Meanwhile,

A long giant dragon silhouette clad in dazzling golden scale armor quietly glided across the sky.

She crossed the turbulent Estonian River, entered the increasingly dense snowy regions of the Border Area, and continued to fly in the direction sensed.

Along the way, Golden Dragon Nasha’s heart was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Since entering the Border Area, she noticed the uniform style of monster outposts and patrol teams scattered throughout this land.

All these signs indicated a single Lord governing this vast area.

Moreover, it’s quite likely a dragon of the Evil Faction.

Most crucially, the location signal for her troublesome brother Alberto pointed here.

As the distance kept closing, Golden Dragon Nasha could clearly smell the dense and mixed scent of Evil Dragons in the air.

The quantity far exceeded her expectations.

Fortunately, most seemed immature, likely at a young age.

"Could my foolish and arrogant brother... have been captured by a Lord of some evil dragon group?"

Though she often personally educated Alberto and thoroughly enjoyed the process, it was mainly because he was too much of a troublemaker.

She would never allow other Evil Dragons to bully or trample her blood kin.

This is the untouchable bottom line of the Golden Dragon Race!

Using the thick snow as natural cover, Nasha remained serious-faced, sharp-eyed, and continued stealthily in the direction of Alberto.

She intended to see which King of Evil Dragons dared to imprison her brother.
