Chapter 306: Chapter 306: The Drawbacks of Metal Control

"The source should be in the basement." Soon, Chen Fei sensed the origin of the bone-chilling cold.

"Let’s go, take a look downstairs." Lu Xiao didn’t delay and took Chen Fei into the villa’s basement.

As soon as he entered the basement, Lu Xiao shuddered all over.

Damn, it’s freaking cold here.

It feels like it’s tens of degrees below zero.

And this isn’t the kind of cold you get from a cold storage, it’s the real deal caused by Mutation Energy.

It freezes not only your body but also your brain and your Inner Qi.

"Can you hold up? It should be Fourth Rank energy." Chen Fei asked Lu Xiao.

"I’m alright." Lu Xiao nodded, then released some Inner Qi to wrap around his body.

Once the Inner Qi Barrier was in place, Lu Xiao felt the chill blocked and his body quickly warmed up.

However, at the same time, the rate of Inner Qi consumption sharply increased.

"Then let’s go on, it should be right ahead." Chen Fei took the lead and stood in front of Lu Xiao.

Right now, it was unclear what the situation was; being a Fourth-Rank, she had to protect Lu Xiao.

"Someone’s here!" The basement was a bit winding, and after turning a corner, Chen Fei suddenly shouted.

At the same time, a large amount of metal surged from Chen Fei’s body, quickly converging in front of her to form a thick Metal Shield.

Watching Chen Fei, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but exclaim, damn, from what he could tell, all that metal had erupted from Chen Fei’s body.

Chen Fei was carrying a bunch of metal with her.

Probably, she used her superpower to turn these metals into armor she wore.

Clever!

It served as both a source of metal to call upon at any time and armor when not in use.

"Bang bang bang!" As Lu Xiao was pondering, heavy blows came.

The Metal Shield standing in front of them began to visibly dent inward. Not only that, the strong impact force continued to push Chen Fei backward.

Lu Xiao was also somewhat shocked, how strong was this?

To know, Chen Fei was a Fourth-Order Metal Control Mutant, an existence even Liuli Hong would fear greatly.

This was the first time he had seen Chen Fei being pushed back, being suppressed.

What was the background of the attacker?

"Hey man, let’s talk, we mean no harm." Lu Xiao shouted.

The other party didn’t respond at all, still launching one powerful attack after another, each hit fiercely powerful.

"Fei, can you hold on?" Lu Xiao asked quietly.

"For now, yes, but there’s too little metal here." Chen Fei frowned slightly.

The entire estate villa was constructed with wood and stone, and there were very few metal objects within the estate, which greatly affected her performance.

No wonder Metal Controllers are considered useless in the jungle; without metal, a Metal Control Mutant is just too weak.

"How about this, I go ram a car into the villa." Lu Xiao suggested.

Chen Fei’s control range over metal was roughly a hundred meters.

As long as a car was brought into the villa, Chen Fei could make use of it.

"It’s too late." Chen Fei shook her head, the other party’s onslaught was too fierce; she estimated that in half a minute at most, the Metal Shield in front of her would be ripped apart.

"Lu Xiao, you go first, I’ll find a chance to break away."

"No way." Lu Xiao refused.

A joke, to leave his girlfriend behind at such a time? That would be totally crappy.

"So the two of us die here together?" Chen Fei retorted, though she wasn’t actually all that opposed to the idea.

Dying with Lu Xiao wouldn’t be too bad.

"We won’t die." Lu Xiao shook his head, "Let’s retreat little by little."

Chen Fei was a bit confused by what Lu Xiao meant, as retreating slowly would just invite the enemy to pursue, wouldn’t it? But she didn’t ask and retreated according to Lu Xiao’s plan.

A few steps later, the two retreated to a corner.

"Hide." Lu Xiao abruptly grabbed Chen Fei’s arm and dove around the corner.

Then, the bombardments that were happening just moments ago suddenly ceased.

The whole basement returned to silence, as if nothing had happened.

Chen Fei stood there, stunned, her mouth gradually widening, her mind filled with question marks.

The attacker was strong and had completely taken the upper hand; it made no sense not to chase them.

"I knew it!" Lu Xiao’s eyes sparkled, "If they could chase, Amir and Sacco would have turned to bones a long time ago."

"You mean, that person is trapped in the basement?" Chen Fei thought for a moment and then asked.

"Not sure if it’s trapping, but they definitely can’t move."

As he said this, Lu Xiao’s head peeked out a bit.

He immediately pulled it back, then his mouth formed an "O".
