A Wizard's Secret

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"Wizard Heart!"

The three peak Great Wizards - Vic, Seddon, and Olga glanced at each other, a resolute expression revealing on their faces.

"Hum hum hum."

Then, the figure of their Wizard Heart also appeared, shining together with Wizards Saturn and Rael's Wizard Heart. However, they could tell that their Wizard Heart was indeed slightly inferior to Saturn and Rael's Wizard Heart.

The more Spell Models and the more perfect a Great Wizard's spell was, the more powerful the fused Wizard Heart would be. As Saturn was a Six-Elemental Spell Caster, all his Spell Models were excellent-grade and above hence he could become the strongest being below Legend.

At this time, the five Great Wizards all used their Wizard Heart. Hidden under the beautiful multicolored light was unparalleled determination.

"Haha, if we're going up against these big guys, how can we, the Mystic Squad, just stand back and watch?"

Under Wizard Beyna's lead, the three peak Great Wizards of the Mystic Squad flew over, and also revealed their Wizard Heart.

The Wizard Heart was the foundation of a Great Wizard. Normally, it must never be damaged, otherwise, it would damage their foundation. They would never be able to become a Great Wizard, much less explode a Wizard Heart.

Once a Wizard Heart exploded, those Great Wizards would instantly be reduced to ashes from the shockwave.

They were using their lives to go against this Progenitor's Body!

As the Progenitor's Body's colossal palm grew larger, Saturn and the others' Wizard Heart also reached its critical point. They would completely explode at any moment.

None of them knew about the two great consciousnesses that were watching their every move.

"Setoh, those kids have guts. It's too bad that they're not quite strong enough. Only death awaits them!"

In the darkness, Progenitor Hanra's tone was very calm.

Arcane Wizard Setoh remained silent, his expression grim. Saturn and the others were on the brink of crisis. Even if they had exploded their Wizard Heart, it would be unable to defeat the Progenitor's Body, unless a true Great Legend descended!

"Three thousand years… There's a reason why the Spell Caster civilization only needed three thousand years to become the strongest civilization in the Void Zone. Now, I finally know the reason!"

Merlin suddenly shouted. Beside him, Arrot seemed to be trying his hardest to resist the pressure the Progenitor's Body brought. Against that terrifying pressure, Spell Casters below Great would find it difficult to even move.

"Illusion!"

With just a soft breath, everyone's movements froze. At that moment, it seemed as though time itself had stopped.

Merlin stepped forward, and slowly walked toward Saturn and the others as if there was a flight of stairs beneath his feet. He looked at the huge Progenitor's Body, and he could seemingly see the struggle in those Rock Creatures' eyes.

However, it was completely useless. Merlin did not even use the Illusory World. His third-stage Hallucinating spell was more than enough. After all, the Progenitor's Body was assembled and was not a true Ancestor-level Rock Creature. Merlin's Hallucinating spell targeted all the members of the Progenitor Squad. Even the strongest beings below Legends were unable to resist Merlin's third-stage Hallucinating spell.

Everyone here had fallen into Merlin's Hallucinating spell. Saturn, Rael, and the others' Wizard Heart also gradually disappeared.

Then, a flame appeared in Merlin's hand, followed by wind, thunder, and ice. Four types of spells combined.

"Go!"

Merlin's eyes were ice-cold. With a point of his finger, the combined spell instantly flew toward the huge Progenitor's Body. The only ones that were not controlled were the two powerful consciousnesses in the void. Not even Merlin was aware of their existence.

However, Progenitor Hanra's current expression was also grave. He naturally saw at a glance Merlin's huge Mind Power and the terror of his combined spell. Once it hit the Progenitor's Body, the entire Progenitor Squad might be completely massacred.

Progenitor Hanra even thought about interfering but Arcane Wizard Setoh hindered him constantly, impeding Progenitor Hanra.

"Hanra, like you said, just let them fight it out. If you interfere, then tens or even hundreds of dimensions would be completely annihilated!"

Arcane Wizard Setoh was also overjoyed. Even he did not see that the Rainbow Squad's true terror was Merlin, who had such a terrifying Hallucinating spell. Perhaps among all the Mind Power Masters in the Spell Caster civilization, there was no one who surpassed Merlin.

"Merlin… I forgot that he was a Mind Power Master. He even reached such a frightening point. I've researched the Mind Power system for a while, and I know that its potential is endless but it's extremely challenging. Even I can't calculate a Mind Power system that can compare to Legends."

Arcane Wizard Setoh also grew interested in Merlin. Previously, he kept an eye out for Merlin because of Merlin's relationship with the black cat Didimoss and the Blackfire Lord. However, now, Merlin's power was enough to make Setoh greatly value him.

Especially in the current war with the Rock Tribe where no Legends were interfering, Merlin surpassing Saturn, and almost being comparable to a Great Legend was even more important than multiple Legends!

Although Arcane Wizard Setoh was amazed, he was not shocked. What he was truly shocked at was the Blackfire Lord. He stared intently at Merlin, watching the Progenitor Squad and Saturn and the rest remain frozen like statues, and seeing Merlin act himself. The Blackfire Lord knew that Merlin had used the power of a Mind Power Master.

"You did it, Merlin. You finally did it. You're so close to perfecting the Mind Power system… The current you are only one step away from breaking through into Legend!"

The Blackfire Lord himself was also a Mind Power Master but according to Titus' Mind Power system, his Hallucinating spell was only in its second-stage while Merlin's Hallucinating spell was in the third stage. The next step was the Illusory Heart, which was what the Blackfire Lord and other Mind Power Masters constantly chased after in order to break through past Legends.

However, after receiving Titus' Mind Power system, Merlin realized that breaking a Great Legend's shackles did not mean the Mind Power system was perfected. It was still very far off.

The Illusory Heart was only breaking the Great Wizard's shackles. With the state of Merlin's current Illusory Heart, he indeed was just one step away.

"Boom."

In the Seely Dimension, Merlin did not move at all. The combined spell viciously exploded, and the violent shockwave drowned the entire Progenitor's Body.

Merlin's Ninth-level spell, in addition to a Four-Elemental combined spell, could already harm ordinary Legends. Furthermore, the other party was just an assembled Legend body, only comparable to a Great Legend.

Therefore, under Merlin's combined spell attack, the Progenitor's Body was instantly defeated, and was reduced to gravel, falling onto the ground.

"Hmph!"

In the air, a cold scoff suddenly sounded. Merlin startled, and whipped his head around, looking at his surroundings. However, he did not find anything.

It was just a cold scoff but it let Merlin feel that he was unable to contend against it.

"Haha, Hanra, is a high and lofty Rock Tribe Progenitor really playing these petty tricks?"

Arcane Wizard Setoh guffawed. The entire Seely Dimension could hear the noise.

"Arcane Wizard Setoh?"

Merlin immediately recognized who the voice belonged to. It was the master of Setoh Arcane City, one of the three great Arcane Wizards of the Spell Caster civilization, Arcane Wizard Setoh.

"Haha, Merlin, well done. Your teacher, the Blackfire Lord, and Didimoss have been watching you but it's not convenient to tell you the details now. That was Progenitor Hanra earlier. His Progenitor Squad was defeated by you, so he naturally grew enraged, haha! Don't worry though, he has already left."

Arcane Wizard Setoh's voice continued to sound beside Merlin's ear. However, this time, it seemed only Merlin could hear his voice. It was clear that Arcane Wizard Setoh did not want others to know.

Then, Arcane Wizard Setoh also left. Merlin looked at the sky, and saw that there was still no disparity. He knew that it was because his distance from Arcane Wizard Setoh was still too large. He could not even chase after his footsteps.

Saturn and the others were still trapped in the illusion, and Merlin waved a hand to break the Hallucinating spell. Immediately, everyone returned to their senses. Besides Saturn, everyone else had confused looks on their faces, not knowing what had happened earlier.

Only Saturn, who was a powerful being under Legend, and was the closest to a Great Legend, could occasionally perceive the movements of the outside world even while in the Hallucinating spell.

Earlier, he saw Merlin cast Hallucinating spell. He also saw Merlin use the combined spell to defeat the Progenitor's Body. For a moment, he looked at Merlin with a complicated gaze.

"Merlin, I've always thought that since I became a preeminent Great Wizard, I would be able to leave you behind me. Who would've thought that I'm still behind you…"

Saturn smiled bitterly.

Merlin also smiled, not knowing how to console Saturn. He knew that Saturn was extremely proud. Ever since he entered Arcane City back then, and discovered that Merlin was also a Six-Elemental Spell Caster, Saturn had secretly competed himself with Merlin.

Even after so many years have passed, those thoughts did not diminish at all. However, besides being proud and arrogant, Saturn did not have any other flaws. He prepared to explode his Wizard Heart with no hesitation when facing against the Progenitor's Body, letting Merlin feel deep admiration for him. With this kind of courage and conviction, as long as he did not die in the future, he would definitely become a Great Legend!

Hearing Saturn and Merlin's conversation, even if they were slow on the uptake, Rael and the others had already guessed what happened. When they looked at Merlin, their eyes flashed with a shock that was hard to conceal.

"Whoosh."

Suddenly, a huge flying ship flew over from the distance. This flying ship was broken beyond recognition, and the runes on it were dull and lightless. It was clearly overworked, and could no longer be used.

Five powerful Spell Casters jumped out of the flying ship. Taking the lead was a young Wizard not inferior to Saturn. They were the Mille Squad that had rushed over by pulling all the stops. For that goal, they had completely spent a good casting tool.

The young Wizard Bolt carefully observed Saturn, and the others before finally sighing in relief. "Thank goodness. You're very lucky the Progenitor Squad hasn't found you yet. We weren't too late."

When Bolt finished speaking, he saw a strange look appeared on the expressions of the Rainbow Squad's Spell Casters.
