My Skill Bar is Full of Monster Skills

"Damn it! Retreat! Retreat!" Elder Blum witnessed the scene and nearly burst into tears.

At this moment, it felt as if his heart was bleeding.

Because the dwarven squad operating the giant crossbows before him were all the kingdom’s elite, but in almost an instant, they were mostly slain by the suddenly appearing Blue Dragon.

Looking at the Blue Dragon hundreds of meters in the air, Elder Blum’s grey-white beard and hair stood on end in anger, yet he was helpless.

The distance was too far, too high, and he couldn’t possibly attack.

But the opponent could use this weather to attack them with ease.

If they didn’t retreat, they would be waiting for death.

In contrast, the Blue Dragon Kazryan.

It slightly lowered its enormous vertical pupils, looking down at the chaotic dwarven camp below with a hint of pleasure on its face.

Although that last strike consumed a lot of energy, the thunderstorm above would soon replenish the electricity it expended.

With a slight folding of its blue-scaled wings, it then flapped them strongly, and charged into the thunderclouds above.

"Boom!"

As a natural lightning bolt struck and hit the Blue Dragon Kazryan, its massive body suddenly emitted a dazzling electric light.

And on Kazryan’s dragon head, there appeared an extremely human-like expression of comfort and pleasure, as if, at that moment, its entire body was soaking in a hot spring.

...

On the other side.

In the sky not far from Egmond.

A group of griffins quickly approached; it was Raine and Elder Grenum’s group, who had been flying for over half a day.

"....In summary, Red Dragons are almost immune to Fire Spells, and Acid and Poison spells are greatly reduced in power due to high temperatures, so in battles with Red Dragons, Frost and Lightning Spells are the best."

While controlling the griffin, Elder Grenum was introducing Raine to the experience of dealing with different dragons.

"It’s just that casters proficient in these two High-tier Spells are very few, and even fewer among our Mountain Dwarf Kingdom."

"Indeed, the number of casters skilled in these two types of spells is very small; in contrast, there are more casters skilled in Fire Spells." Raine nodded slightly, deeply agreeing with Elder Grenum’s assertion.

For example, the Krit Fire Team he was familiar with, all were mages skilled in Fire Spells.

The female mage Hayley of the Giant Blade Squad was also a mage skilled in Fire Spells.

Of course, it’s important to note here the difference between being ’skilled’ in a spell versus simply ’knowing’ it.

Even Fire Mages often know a few low-grade spells from other schools.

However, when facing a fully mature Giant Dragon, which is a top-level demon, spells below the Third Level are practically of no use, having almost zero damage against a fully mature Giant Dragon.

Except for non-direct attack spells, of course.

In fact, to deal with a fully mature Giant Dragon, even the disgrace of the Five-Color Dragons, the ’White Scale’, it requires at least Fifth Level spells to inflict strong enough damage.

And when facing the top-ranked combat power of the Five-Color Dragons, the Red Dragon, it’s feared that only a Sixth Level Spell can inflict guaranteed damage.

Thus, combining these two restrictive conditions, an Extraordinary Level caster proficient in Sixth Level or higher Ice or Lightning Spells is undoubtedly extremely rare among casters.

"Regarding the Green Dragon, which you just encountered, if you can resist its potent poison and prevent it from escaping, it’s not particularly difficult to deal with."

At this point, Elder Grenum, along with Humbert and Krom Stone Fist, who were listening intently to the conversation, looked at Raine with curious and admiring eyes.

In the previous battle with the Green Dragon, Raine ’miraculously’ resisted the dragon’s potent poison.

Although Raine noticed their gazes, he was aware of this issue, as it involved his golden finger, and he had no other reasonable explanation, so feigning ignorance was naturally the best choice.

Seeing Raine had no intention to explain, Elder Grenum showed a hint of unresolved curiosity but didn’t particularly mind.

After all, when one’s strength reaches a certain level, everyone has their own secret trump card.

Even straightforward dwarves are no exception.

Grenum continued, "As for the Blue Dragon, it’s immune to lightning, but fire, frost, poison, and acid can harm it. But as a dragon that controls lightning and storms, its speed and attack power are extremely formidable."

"If encountered, attention should be paid to its Lightning Spells and flight speed."

"Oh, and in this kind of thunderstorm weather, the Blue Dragon becomes particularly terrifying." At this point, as if remembering something, Elder Grenum pointed to the massive dark cloud with occasional flickers of lightning and said with emotion.

"Thankfully, we’re dealing with a Red Dragon."

"Red Dragons also dislike rainy weather and generally don’t act under such conditions..."

Just as Elder Grenum was speaking, he suddenly noticed Raine beside him had suddenly become solemn, his eyes fixed on the depths of the dark clouds ahead, unmoving.

Hmm?

Just as Grenum was about to inquire, a dragon’s roar, noticeably weakened over distance but still clearly audible, came from afar.

"Roar!"

Then, what came into view was a strange spherical lightning formed in the distant black clouds.

The lightning rapidly dove downwards and then suddenly ascended at several hundred meters above the ground.

And in that instant, a dense network-like bright blue Lightning Bolt briefly flashed in the sky.

On the ground, multiple strike points of lightning appeared.

"This...this isn’t a Red Dragon!" Elder Grenum’s eyes widened in shock.

"It’s a Blue Dragon!" Humbert and Centurion Krom Stone Fist exchanged glances, exclaiming in unison.

"Damn it! Old Blum didn’t prepare anything to counter the Blue Dragon."

"And with this weather, it’s a one-sided slaughter!" Elder Grenum muttered, realizing something immediately.

"It’s Blue Dragon Kazryan!" Humbert looked through a copper monocular, with a serious expression.

The Mountain Dwarf Kingdom had compiled an atlas of the adult dragons of the Aisores Blue Dragon Group and distributed it to high-ranking officers of each legion.

Blue Dragon Kazryan?

What a coincidence.

Raine squinted slightly, looking at the faint dragon silhouette within the spherical lightning ahead, and thought silently.

"Elder Grenum, we should hurry up and help!"

"Wait, don’t go sacrificing yourselves! Old Blum couldn’t do anything, what could you possibly do?" Elder Grenum immediately rejected Krom’s idea of providing support.

"Elder Grenum, does the dwarven legion here have prepared War Shackles?" Suddenly, Raine’s calm and steady voice came from the side.

"No, the Red Dragon’s nature is violent and arrogant, it rarely makes sudden escapes, and by the time it senses something amiss, it’s already severely injured and on the brink of death."

Responding quickly to Raine’s question, but as soon as he finished, Grenum sensed something off.

"Hmm? Raine, don’t tell me you...." Elder Grenum’s eyes widened like copper bells, looking at Raine in astonishment!

"I can try to entangle the Blue Dragon Kazryan, but to completely capture it, we need War Shackles to restrict it." While speaking, Raine retrieved a second steel box from his back and began donning the Electric Resistance Set.

The Blood Vine is a different material from ordinary metal plate armor, its armor is more like rattan armor, and once worn, Raine looked more like a venerable Druid Elder.

Both Raine’s current Electric Resistance Set and his confident tone left the dwarves exchanging glances.

Even if they thought Raine’s intent to confront a Blue Dragon during a thunderstorm was somewhat exaggerated, recalling the encounter with the Green Dragon still vivid from half a day prior, Elder Grenum chose to believe.

"No problem! Leave it to us."

"Blum also has War Golems prepared here; give me some time, and I’ll surely get the War Shackles on it."

"In addition, Raine, try to draw the Blue Dragon Kazryan to the ground. That way, old Blum and I can help."

"Got it, Elder Grenum. I’ll go ahead." After donning the Blood Vine Set, Raine nodded slightly.

With one last glance at the flying lightning mass within the distant thundercloud, Raine disappeared from the griffin’s back the next instant.
