"Come on, come on, just once! Please!"
"You're being a bit disgusting… Veldora."
"I've been confined for a hundred years and my hands are itching now. If you agree, I can grant you three wishes."
"I want to conquer this world in one second, how about that?"
"Can't do that… By then you'd be able to defeat me. How could I, a defeated foe, directly help you conquer an entire plane?"
"That's the problem. You've already lost to me, so why should I let you grant wishes?"
Chen Hai did not accept Veldora's challenge.
He turned to look at the Goblins in front of him.
"How long do you plan to take action?"
"Please, Lord Chen Hai, grant us some time. We need to prepare ample supplies and a proper plan. After all, the monsters in the Jura Great Forest are very cunning, and they tend to act in groups, so a reckless attack could easily fail."
Rigurd explained, hoping to gain more time.
Chen Hai nodded, telling them to immediately begin preparations for the upcoming war.
Thus, the Goblins, having received names, blessings, and become stronger, began to busy themselves.
The supplies they spoke of were small animals caught during hunting, and crudely made swords and shields.
"These things are too shabby, aren't they…?"
Veldora looked at the items in the Goblins' hands, displaying an expression that clearly said, 'These guys are doomed to fail.'
"Do you have any good ideas?"
"What about you?"
Chen Hai had just finished asking when Veldora retorted with a question.
Actually, Chen Hai thought of Orario's weapons.
If those weapons were brought over, the Goblins' combat power would definitely increase significantly.
At this moment, without waiting for an answer, Veldora unfurled his left Dragon Wing.
Startled by this action, the Goblins looked at the wing that obscured the sky above their heads, thinking they would be swatted away by the Dragon Wing at any moment.
However, Veldora quickly lowered it.
After a gust of air, high-quality, high-purity crystal ores appeared in the space.
Upon seeing them, the Goblins curiously moved closer.
Veldora immediately explained,
"If you had skilled craftsmen, they could integrate these materials into weapons to forge stronger equipment. But you little monsters can't do that, so…"
The Storm Dragon blew a breath.
The next instant, the crystal ores turned into fragments.
"Smear them on your weapons, and you'll get a temporary enhancement. Blocking magic attacks won't be an issue either."
"Oh, oh, thank you, Great Dragon!"
Seeing this, the Goblins immediately began to collect the crystal fragments on the ground.
Chen Hai couldn't help but look at Veldora, who had extended a helping hand to the Goblins.
"Aren't you quite concerned about them?"
"Because Chen Hai's plan is for these monsters to fight, isn't it? I just provided a small bit of help, and it's no trouble at all."
Everything he had just done was merely a trivial effort for the Storm Dragon.
After all, in this world, Veldora's strength is definitely among the top.
For this, Chen Hai recalled the information about him.
Veldora.
Highest-ranking Holy Demonic Spirit — Dragon Kind.
['Dragon Kind'] and ['Dragon'] are completely different races, spiritual life forms born from the degraded genetic factors of the ['Star King Dragon'], the ['Creator God']. They are a race that will resurrect through the gathering of spirit no matter how many times their physical body is destroyed.
Protection: Blessing of Abundance, Protection of the Storm.
Magic: Dragon Kind Magic.
Inherent Skills: All-Purpose Perception, Dragon Spirit Haki, All-Purpose Transformation.
Ultimate Skills: Lord of Chaos — Thought Acceleration, Analysis and Appraisal, All-Encompassing Knowledge, Probability Manipulation, Parallel Existence, Elucidation of Truth, Spacetime Manipulation, Multidimensional Barrier.
Resistances: Natural Phenomenon Nullification, Status Ailment Nullification, Pain Nullification, Physical Attack Nullification, Mental Attack Nullification, Holy-Demonic Attack Resistance.
All data indicated a fully maxed-out existence.
Chen Hai asked the System if it could analyze the traits.
"Of course, please touch the target."
"Veldora."
"What's wrong?"
"I'm going to touch your scales."
"You can, but why do you look so strange? The way you're looking at me is off."
"Shut up."
Chen Hai placed his right hand on Veldora.
"Name: Veldora."
"Race: Dragon Kind."
"Traits —"
"Thought Acceleration (Gold): Increases perception speed a thousandfold."
"Analysis and Appraisal (Gold): Analyzes and appraises the target."
"All-Encompassing Knowledge (Gold): Encompasses all unshielded phenomena in this world. 0"
"Probability Manipulation (Gold): Can turn uncertain events into certain ones."
"Parallel Existence (Gold): Replicates one's own existence."
"Elucidation of Truth (Gold): Traces the source of unshielded information."
"Spacetime Manipulation (Gold): Manipulation of time and space."
"Multidimensional Barrier (Gold): Escapes the plane and constructs a completely new spatial barrier."
These were the Storm Dragon's main traits.
All golden… Besides these, Chen Hai remembered that Veldora also had resistances like Natural Phenomenon Nullification, Status Ailment Nullification, Pain Nullification, and so on.
"The Host may choose one."
Unlike skills, only one trait can be acquired from a target.
He wondered if it could be increased in the future.
Thinking of this, Chen Hai fell into a dilemma.
Every trait was excellent.
However, some of these traits partially overlapped with abilities Chen Hai already possessed.
For example — All-Encompassing Knowledge.
Chen Hai could currently encompass unshielded phenomena, but only within the range he controlled.
If it exceeded that range, he couldn't do it.
There was also 'Spacetime Manipulation.'
The domain occupied by the System, apart from time, was space that Chen Hai freely controlled.
As for barriers —
Chen Hai didn't really need this ability.
Which one should he choose?
Thought Acceleration?
The reason he chose this was that other traits could be reproduced in the future.
Or there existed a subordinate alternative.
Only 'Thought Acceleration' was unique.
"Already copied."
Just as Chen Hai thought this, the System made a judgment and copied it for him… Before he could communicate with the System, Veldora stood up.
"How about it, Chen Hai? Let's leave the work here to the Goblins, and we can go play in your Dungeon."
"I thought you'd suggest 'strolling around here.'"
"Although I did think that, but… my appearance would definitely cause a commotion, and trouble might come knocking. So… I want to go to your Dungeon."
Instead of seeking fun, Veldora began to seek a second life in Chen Hai's 'Dungeon.'
No, it was a second Dragon life…
