Tony trailed off mid-sentence, his eyes widening.

The glowing green beam did not look particularly powerful, but the moment it touched the rusty iron door, the door rapidly broke apart from the point of contact, eventually disintegrating into powder invisible to the naked eye!

Tony Stark noticed that even the bomb he had placed on the door had been disintegrated before it could explode.

"Uh..."

Tony swallowed the words on the tip of his tongue, instead wondering what kind of power that was. Was this magic?

Perhaps this young man really could get them out.

Harry heard footsteps coming from outside the cave. Clearly, the Ten Rings Gang had discovered that something was wrong inside.

He looked around and quickly spotted a camera hanging on the rock wall. He hit it with a Shattering Charm and destroyed it.

"Let's go. But before that, you'd better put on the Iron Man Armor. Otherwise, even I can't guarantee I'll be able to stop every stray bullet," Harry warned.

Tony Stark was somewhat puzzled. "Don't you have defensive magic? Something like a Magic Shield?"

"Of course we do. I can use it too, but there might be a problem."

"What problem?"

Harry cast Protego on a rock and did his best to keep the magic power within him steady.

There was no problem for the first two seconds, but then his magic power suddenly became unstable. The transparent barrier surrounding the rock rapidly thickened. As Protego grew tougher, it also grew larger, immediately crushing the rock inside flat.

Harry spread his hands. "Like that. If you want, I can cast Protego on you. Its defense is pretty good. Not even artillery shells could break it."

It sounded like a good suggestion, but Tony Stark glanced at the crushed rock and quickly shook his head. "No. I think wearing the Iron Man Armor is just fine."

By the time Tony Stark had put on the Iron Man Armor, the Ten Rings Gang had already arrived.

When they spotted Harry, they shouted at him in broken English:

"Damn it, where did you come from? Put your hands up and get down!"

Harry did not waste words with them. Glowing green beams instantly swept across more than a dozen Ten Rings Gang members, shattering their bodies and souls and leaving deep gouges in the rock walls.

By the time Tony Stark had finished putting on the Iron Man Armor, Harry had already dealt with dozens of terrorists.

After losing dozens of men, the Ten Rings Gang no longer dared to venture deeper into the cave. They changed tactics, waiting outside for Harry to emerge while laying down an inescapable net around the cave entrance.

With the Iron Man Armor on, Tony Stark immediately felt much safer. He teased Harry:

"Pajama Baby, hide behind Uncle Tony. Uncle Tony will get you out of here."

Harry glanced at Tony's Iron Man Armor and asked curiously:

"Mr. Stark, aren't you afraid that a piece of shrapnel might happen to pass through the eye socket of your armor and blow your head off?

If you aren't afraid, then of course I can stand behind you."

Tony Stark was immediately left speechless. He was competitive, but he would never joke with his own life.

So he gave in. "Uh, all right, kid. Maybe I should stand behind you."

The three headed toward the cave entrance. Harry took the lead, Tony Stark in the Iron Man Armor followed close behind, and Yinsen, holding a sheet of metal and imitating Captain America, brought up the rear.

As they neared the cave entrance, Tony Stark spoke again:

"Are you sure you can handle this? I don't want to see a kid torn to pieces right in front of me."

Tony Stark did not speak pleasantly, but Harry knew he was concerned about him. This playboy was a kind person too.

Harry smiled brightly and stepped out of the cave, exposing himself before hundreds of fully armed terrorists. Confident and flamboyant, he declared:

"Mr. Stark, watch my performance. I'm going to become the Supreme Mage!"

"Open fire!"

The leader of the Ten Rings Gang gave the order, and hundreds of terrorists fired at Harry at once.

They held AKM assault rifles. Their 7.62×39 mm rounds could easily pierce steel plates at high speed, let alone a human body.

Although Harry possessed some extraordinary abilities, the Ten Rings Gang remained completely confident. They did not take him seriously. He would surely be riddled with bullets.

They focused more of their attention on Tony Stark. That Iron Man Armor looked extremely sturdy, and they had no idea what it was made of. Even sniper rifles might not be able to penetrate it.

That was their greatest threat!

But they quickly changed their minds. The newly adult young man merely raised a hand before him, as though he intended to stop the bullets that way.

The sight was ridiculous and laughable, but before the Ten Rings Gang could laugh, their smiles froze on their faces.

That hand ahead of them seemed like some kind of law. It seemed to be declaring that passage was forbidden.

Thus, countless bullets visibly stopped when they came within one meter of the young man, ultimately hanging motionless in the air like insects trapped in amber.

Once countless bullets had formed a "wall" in front of Harry, he suddenly shoved forward.

The bullets flew back even faster, rapidly killing one terrorist after another!

Neither AKM assault rifles nor SVD sniper rifles could pierce Harry's telekinesis. Combined with Raggadorr's Ring of Red appearing from time to time, the three advanced in an orderly manner.

There were simply too many members of the Ten Rings Gang—hundreds of them. Even though Harry had killed nearly a hundred, he still could not tear open a gap in their line of defense.

Seeing this, Tony Stark made a suggestion:

"The Iron Man Armor has a flamethrower. I can detonate those ammunition crates."

Harry shook his head. "No. Blowing up the ammunition crates could trigger a chain reaction. The two of us might be fine, but Yinsen would definitely die. Don't rush. I have a way."

Several rockets flew toward Harry. Taking advantage of his relatively stable magic power, Harry instantly constructed a magic formation. Kamar-Taj's powerful defensive spell, Shield of the Seraphim, formed before them and blocked the rockets like a fortress wall.

Soon, the three reached the center of the Ten Rings Gang camp. Harry instructed:

"Mr. Stark, Mr. Yinsen, stay as close to me as possible!"

Tony Stark did not know why Harry was asking this, but he quickly moved closer anyway.

Once the two were within three meters of Harry, an endless, terrifying surge of magic power erupted from within him.

He floated into the air, his body wrapped in visible scarlet chaos.

He raised his hand slightly. No magic formation appeared, yet Gravity Manipulation had already taken effect.

Gravity within several hundred meters was controlled by Harry, and everything was shrouded in a faint blue spiritual glow.

Once the faint blue glow reached a certain intensity, Harry clenched his fist hard.

Boom!

Other than the area within three meters around Harry, which remained unchanged, everything within a hundred-meter radius centered on him was instantly crushed beneath dozens of times normal gravity.

Whether it was hard rock, thick trees, buildings that had once stood tall, or the flesh and blood of the terrorists.

All of it was like fragile sheets of paper, utterly helpless before this immense force. It was mercilessly flattened, becoming a twisted, shattered ruin.

When the drifting dust finally settled, Tony Stark discovered that the surrounding ground had been compressed several meters downward, its rock-hard surface embedded with glaring scarlet.
