Chapter 92

"Chirp!"

The sudden roar from the old man startled Xiao Chirp, who had been dozing off against the light magic beast core.

It opened its eyes in confusion and looked around its little nest.

Dad is still here, everything is fine, everything is fine!

"Chirp!~"

The warm shed rustled with the sound of leaves rubbing against each other, but the door was securely closed, and no wind blew in.

Chen Fei felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up, as if there was something strange in the house.

However, apart from the inexplicable rustling, there was no other movement.

"Be careful!"

The Neanderthal old man's figure flashed, grabbing Chen Fei like a chick and pulling him three feet away.

Plop plop plop!

A series of light sounds, and a row of holes appeared where Chen Fei had just been standing.

Oh my God?

What's going on?

Chen Fei, caught off guard, was not at all afraid, and his face did not change.

First, he was invulnerable to blades and bullets, and second, he only had 52 hours left to live, so he had already given up on life and had nothing to worry about.

Come on, move yourself!

"Stupid boy, don't just stand there, find a place to hide quickly."

The old man pushed Chen Fei into a corner, turned around, and shouted, "Come out!"

"Blood Spike" transformed into a purple lightning bolt and shot out.

Puff!~

With a muffled sound, it nailed into the steel wall of the shed, causing the wall, which was made of two layers of steel with a thick layer of insulating foam in between, to dent and almost crack.

A transparent, glass-like human silhouette appeared in the dented area, quickly filled with countless tiny colorful fragments, and finally turned completely black, covering the person from head to toe. The person looked down at the long, sharp object that had pierced their chest, seemingly in disbelief.

"Huh! Huh..."

Finally, the person's head drooped, and they fell silent.

Plop plop plop ding ding dang dang plop plop... The shed seemed to be hit by a storm, with bullets crisscrossing and branches and leaves flying everywhere. Even the Target low-temperature nuclear fusion energy tower, located in the center of the shed, was hit by several bullets due to its large size, making it look quite alarming.

System: Ding! Absorbed 8.1 grams of alloy, composition ratio: iron 55%, lead 35%, copper 7%, organic matter 2.5%...

Chen Fei felt as if someone had kicked his butt, realizing he had been hit by a bullet. He quickly changed his position to protect his vital areas.

The dense barrage of bullets never touched the Neanderthal old man, who moved like a ghost, dodging the bullets effortlessly. He reached out, and the long, conical "Blood Spike" was drawn back to Barut's hand, and he threw it again with ease.

"Ah!~"

This time, a scream of pain finally rang out.

Another person, whose body was covered in tiny colorful fragments, was pierced by the "Blood Spike" and nailed to a laurel tree, holding an invisible silenced weapon in their hand.

"Can these people turn invisible?"

Chen Fei sucked in a cold breath, and it was optical invisibility.

Old Man Barut was truly formidable, taking out two of them in one go. If not for the old man's keen senses, they would have been killed by the enemy.

Uh, no, only the old man would have been killed, while Chen Fei would have just been hit by bullets and felt a lot of pain.

The steel shed fell silent, and Chen Fei cautiously poked his head out from his hiding place.

Was it finally over?

The energy tower, riddled with bullet holes, continued to operate normally, with the surviving display screens showing a steady power output curve, indicating that the fusion reaction had not been disrupted or damaged.

He did not notice the shadow at his feet expanding rapidly and strangely.

Barut, who was about to recall the "Blood Spike," suddenly stopped and shouted at Chen Fei, "Boy, don't move!"

"..."

Chen Fei was bewildered.

A strange chill ran down his neck, and a voice whispered in his ear.

"Hey, the old man is right, you'd better not move."

System: Ding! Discovered 121 grams of S2 tool steel, absorb? Yes/No | ?

No!

Since it was already in his mouth, Chen Fei was not in a hurry.

With the system in his mind, he was calm and said, "Who are you?"

"Hehe, I'm a good person!"

I've been waiting for you!

Skill selection: "Savage Gaze."

System: Energy points -1!

Go!~

Puff!~

"Uh!~"

Both of them froze, and Chen Fei and the other person looked down at the same time.

Chen Fei's left hand, more accurately, his claw, was covered in dark golden scales from the forearm to the fingers, with sharp nails that had deeply pierced the other person's chest.

Nail Dragon Claw!

The tactical dagger in the other person's hand was still pressed against Chen Fei's neck.

"You..."

The person, who had turned back from a shadow, was in excruciating pain. When they saw Chen Fei's shattered golden eyes, they were terrified and immediately exerted force, pulling back and turning black, about to merge into the nearby shadows.

System: Ding! Absorbed 121 grams of S2 tool steel, composition ratio: iron 96.55%, silicon 1%, carbon 0.65%, manganese 0.5%, molybdenum 0.5%, chromium 0.3%, vanadium 0.2%, copper 0.15%, nickel 0.1%, phosphorus 0.02%, sulfur 0.02%...

"Chirp!~"

A clear bird chirp, and the steel shed was suddenly filled with light.

The person, about to merge into the shadows, was thrown out. Chen Fei, in the "Savage Gaze" state, reacted quickly, dashing forward and slashing with his claw.

The person's body was torn apart, and the blood and flesh splattered onto the plants.

A few fragments of the dagger handle fell to the ground, but the metal blade had vanished.

"Hmph! A dark ability user!"

Barut examined the scattered blood and flesh, and with a wave of his hand, the "Blood Spike" that had followed him for a lifetime flew back and landed steadily in his hand.

He turned his gaze to Chen Fei's hands, which had not only turned into a fearsome claw on the left but also on the right, and his eyes, which had turned into shattered golden eyes, making him feel a chill. He said uncertainly, "Good boy, I underestimated you. You've been hiding your true nature, a beast transformer."

On Blue Star, besides ability users, there were also beast transformers who had undergone biological modifications, though the technology was not yet mature and was rare to see.

The Neanderthal old man, who had traveled far and wide, had seen many things.

To Barut, Chen Fei's hands and eyes were all characteristics of a beast transformer. He had to admit he had misjudged the young man, who was also a wolf in sheep's clothing.

"Ah? A beast transformer? No! I'm a metal ability user, I just awakened a few days ago, ah! The ability inhibitor failed!"

Chen Fei looked at his fearsome hands, which were rapidly returning to their original form, the scales and claws fading away.

The "Savage Gaze" duration finally reached zero, and the 15-second cooldown began.

He finally realized that the ability inhibitor had not prevented the "Savage Gaze" from activating.

"Just a few days ago?"

The Neanderthal old man was taken aback. He had thought Chen Fei had been hiding his true nature from him for a long time, but the answer was this.

He carefully examined Chen Fei, trying to find any signs of lying.

Chen Fei nodded and said matter-of-factly, "Yes! A while ago, I was kidnapped by some unknown armed people, and somehow I awakened. Manager Hana knows, she told me I'm a metal ability user and had me learn to control my ability from the metal dragon Irian."

He and the dragon had not learned anything, but he had eaten over a ton of alloy ingots.

Boom!~

A loud explosion sounded outside the steel shed, and the shock wave made the entire shed shake slightly.
