If accidentally triggered, the bell will ring, and the poison jar will tip over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though not fatal to us, it could injure someone and alarm the Kobolds inside with the bell sound,\" Fabian explained while quickly dismantling the trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this scene, Raine’s mind stirred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Illuminated by the torch, his Low Light Vision allowed him to detect the thin line almost simultaneously with Fabian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of individual combat power, Kobolds and goblins don’t differ much, but Kobold intelligence surpasses goblins, as evidenced by the traps set before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fabian quickly dismantled the trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, he carried the large jar of poison with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They continued cautiously for several minutes. After Fabian disabled another trap, the group reached an intersection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A three-way intersection. Which way do we go?\" Chris asked, but he was already looking at Raine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reya found this scene rather odd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chris didn’t ask Fabian about the path, despite it being his job to scout.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Reya looked at Fabian, he too was seriously looking at Raine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Reya even more curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The truth is, she hadn’t entered the Giant Vampire Bat’s lair and hadn’t witnessed Raine determining the path in the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Kobold scent is significantly denser on this side; it should be their main activity area. The other two are much fainter,\" Raine pointed to the passage on the far right and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\" Reya’s eyes widened, looking Raine up and down, unsure of what to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After killing the Wild Boar caravan before, Raine had smelled something on her...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Reya always considered it a coincidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, unlike Chris’s exaggerated description at the bat cave entrance, the real event unfolding before her felt completely different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could a human have such sensitive smell?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was simply unbelievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, Reya really wanted to ask Raine what career path he intended to take?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Mage Apprentice, surpassing Fabian in exploration and navigation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surpassing Chris in monster endurance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More agile than Grande...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Captain?\" Seeing Reya staring blankly at him, Raine couldn’t help but wave his hand in front of her face and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, it’s nothing, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a likely confrontation with a large number of Kobolds, Reya repositioned Fabian, who was wearing Leather Armor, in the middle of the team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raine took the lead, followed by Chris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Grande, also a Shield Bearer, walked at the back of the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since his defense wasn’t weaker than Chris’s, he walked at the rear to guard against surprise attacks from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Raine’s nostrils gently flared, smelling the increasingly mixed and dense Kobold scent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he heard faint digging sounds echoing through the narrow passage ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the Sensitive Smell from the Wild Boar Warrior and the Sensitive Hearing from the Giant Bloodsucking Bat Leader, Raine detected the enemies ahead before anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He slowed his pace slightly and opened his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A high-frequency detection wave, imperceptible to human ears, spread rapidly down the passage like invisible waves, an Echo Location Lv1 technique borrowed from the Vampire Bat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Raine’s mind, the continuous reflections of high-frequency waves began to form an outline of the deep tunnel terrain ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? Up ahead is a larger underground hall?\" Raine thought silently to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving the sonar feedback, he mentally mapped out a rough three-dimensional diagram of the space ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About thirty meters ahead, the echoes suddenly became chaotic and overlapping, suggesting a larger, open hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, judging from a black vortex disappearance of sound waves, the hall likely had a passage leading further underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding those individual special echoes, there were a total of —\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleven....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh, why are these three at the top of the hall?\" Raine was surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But judging by their size, they didn’t seem much larger than ordinary Kobolds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What are they....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief ponder, Raine quickly told the others behind him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Kobolds are just ahead, about thirty meters away, in an underground hall, which seems like a spot miners used for resting and transferring ore carts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Raine’s words, everyone looked at him with puzzled expressions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it’s about a keen sense of smell, detecting the foul odor from Kobolds makes sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to detect an underground hall by smell?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, he is indeed a Mage Apprentice,\" Reya smiled broadly and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Reya’s words, Chris, Fabian, and the others showed a moment of realization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering Raine’s identity as a Mage Apprentice, some unusual matters had explanations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raine wasn’t being upfront; he actually used some magic to investigate but deceived them by claiming it was his sense of smell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, since Raine didn’t willingly disclose the magic, they naturally chose not to inquire insensitively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, everyone has their secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"By the way, do any of you know any monsters that fly and like to mix with Kobolds?\" Raine asked, throwing out a question he couldn’t figure out at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though monsters generally follow a rule where combat power often relates to size, it’s not absolute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if those perched at the hall’s ceiling possess some unique abilities?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Flying monsters that mix with Kobolds?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Raine’s question immediately caught the attention of the others.\u003C\u002Fp>",1008,"2026-06-03T05:04:28.992Z","2026-06-03T05:04:32.555Z",1,"novelbin.me","716d755880c63e754d1c9c81b71965d9a65d1ec889e6833b696484739b5d9540","my-skill-bar-is-full-of-monster-skills-chapter-44","my-skill-bar-is-full-of-monster-skills-chapter-42",463,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmy-skill-bar-is-full-of-monster-skills-cover.jpg"]
