Ancient Wizards: A Little Progress Every Day

"escape?!"

Tracy sneered, completely ignoring Dargo's orders. After landing, she pushed off the ground with both feet and ran headlong towards the direction from which the gray cloud was coming.

He knocked over one passerby after another along the way, his hood falling off, and his long, wavy red hair danced in the wind like flames.

Even from her back view, you could feel her madness at that moment.

"snort!"

Dago snorted coldly, and a dense aura of extraordinary magic surged from his body, spreading out magical fluctuations.

Beneath the robe, activated by [Living Silver Ice], a titanium alloy figure rapidly emerged, transforming into a metal humanoid over two meters tall.

In the blink of an eye, it caught up with Tracy's figure, and then the humanoid figure wrapped its arms around Tracy from behind, embedding itself deeply into the flowing molten metal.

"Let me go! You damned, lowly bug!"

Tracy struggled incessantly, kicking wildly with her legs, even kicking off the deerskin boots she had only worn a few days ago.

But now, having lost all her strength, she is utterly powerless against the revitalized Titanium Humanoid form.

In less than a second, he was firmly wrapped in the titanium humanoid form and then rushed towards the other end of Greg Town.

The terrifying power of a miracle-level wizard is like countless towering mountains and vast oceans, crashing down from the sky with a thunderous roar.

The entire town of Greg was plunged into panic in an instant. No one knew what had happened; only a thick cloud of death was rapidly gathering.

"Click click click—"

An ancient and malevolent aura emanated from Dago as he swiftly entered the state of [Ancient Ice].

His figure suddenly grew taller, his dark blue hair flew up, and the originally loose robe he was wearing was stretched taut.

Just as he was preparing to further utilize the power of [Frosty Crimson Glow] to completely open the "forbidden door" deep within his bloodline.

Sudden.

"boom!"

A burst of intense golden-red flames suddenly exploded in his eyes. In a daze, Dago seemed to see the phantom of a giant firebird with a crest on its head flash before his eyes, coldly watching him.

"Bang—"

An inexplicable tremor arose in his heart, and the frost around Dago suddenly exploded. He staggered back a few steps, as if someone had shoved him hard in the chest.

"This is."

Dago's eyes widened in shock as he realized that six percent of the ancient Despair Winter Dragon bloodline within him seemed to be firmly "locked" by a force.

Even though he was willing to risk being dominated by the ancient will of "Beheilite", he was still unable to enter the state of [Frosty Crimson Glow].

"Because of our 'symbiotic' soul with Tracy, the two antagonistic bloodlines within us are mutually restraining, making it impossible for them to be fully activated?!"

Dago's face immediately turned extremely ugly.

He had always thought that Tracy's current state of being "powerless" was because her "Nirvana" technique had failed, her injuries had not healed, and there was also the backlash from the technique.

Only now do I realize that a large part of the reason is that the ancient Despair Winter Dragon bloodline within me is firmly suppressing the awakening of her "Phoenix Bloodline" power.

Their relationship is too complicated. It's as if they're both wearing layers upon layers of shackles. There are so many of these "shackles" that Dargo still doesn't fully understand how many hidden restrictions there are.

"Unable to use [Frosty Crimson Glow], my only means of fighting against a fourth-ring miracle is [Miracle: Despair Black Hole]."

Dago stood amidst the escalating chaos, his gaze fixed solemnly on the pale-skinned, purple-haired middle-aged wizard who was steadily approaching from the sky.

However, the energy accumulated in "Isidore's Armlet of Protection" had already been exhausted by him last time, and he had no confidence that he could cast the spell "Miracle: Despair Black Hole" again.

Moreover, even if he could barely manage to unleash it, whether he could successfully repel the opponent was uncertain. He had fought this purple-haired wizard from the Revival Society before.

Back then, even the [Frosty Crimson Glow] state couldn't directly confront it, and it still needed Serena's opportunistic assistance.

Not to mention, behind this purple-haired middle-aged wizard stands an incredibly terrifying fifth-ring wizard!

"If we go head-to-head with Tracy as a burden, our chances of survival are probably less than 100%."

"But if we try to escape now, can we really get away?"

Dago stared intently at the gray cloud that was sweeping in like an apocalypse, his eyes flashing rapidly.

A moment later, as if he had finally made up his mind, his imposing aura suddenly subsided, and then he turned around and ran towards Tracy, who had been taken away by the Titanium doll, without hesitation.

At this moment, in the sky, the purple-haired middle-aged figure, who seemed to be standing in the midst of a blazing sun, slowly extended his right hand downwards with an indifferent expression.

In an instant, a terrifying force, like the collapse of a dome, suddenly descended, and in just a moment, the rune array above Greg Town was shattered.

Countless terrified wizards flew out, trying to escape in all directions, but were instantly crushed into dust by this invisible force.

"Boom!"

Starting from one side, Greg caused the ground of the entire town to shake, streets and buildings to be destroyed and overturned like pieces of paper, moving along a predetermined route toward a certain location.

"Let go of me!! Get your stinky hands off me, don't touch me! Ah—"

Tracy struggled frantically, biting at Dago's arm like a maddened little beast.

However, it was ruthlessly "suppressed" by Dago.

He wrapped one arm around Tracy, and the petite Tracy was almost completely "embraced" in his arms from behind.

At the same time, Dago took out a pale finger bone that exuded a strong ancient aura, the same mysterious finger bone that Evaque had given him. A resolute look flashed in his eyes, and then he squeezed it hard.

"Let's take a gamble!"

"Click—"

The first segment of the finger bone shattered instantly, turning into snow-white bone powder. Then, an inexplicable aura emanated from it, forming an invisible black cloak in the void, which slowly draped over Dago's body.

At the same time, a humanoid figure made of titanium metal spread out its limbs, forming a starfish shape to completely embrace Dago.

It happened almost the instant everything was completed.

"boom!"

An invisible force swept straight through the area where Dago stood, turning the entire long street into dust in an instant.
