CHAPTER 686 SHADOW

After Lin Rui said this, everyone in the conference room looked over at the scenery of this snowfield, which is not special to people like them, and the cold is not that painful to them.

So other people in the room were a little confused when Lin Rui proposed to go out for a walk. Especially now since they are very likely to find the Magic Cube.

“Haha! Actually, I really want to go out too! Mirage Knight, should we go together?” While everyone was staring at Lin Rui, Iceman suddenly smiled and spoke.

Compared to other people’s aesthetic fatigue towards the wind and snow outside, Iceman can feel the comfort that is not available in other places in such an environment.

Although Iceman’s ability is brought to him by the Mutant Gene in his body, the external environment can also affect the changes in his ability.

For example, Iceman’s strength will have a big effect in this Ice Field whereas he will be a little weak in a desert. Therefore, Iceman wanted to go out for a long time now.

“Of course!” Lin Rui agreed with a smile when he heard Iceman’s words.

“Then, everyone is free to arrange the rest of their time, but the necessary equipment on your body should be brought. If anything happens here then I want you all to be back in the fastest possible time.” At a time when the Magic Cube has not been found and the situation over the Space Portal is still unknown, Captain Rogers also knows that these people cannot afford to be idle.

“Don’t worry. Let’s go, Mirage Knight!” After Rogers finished speaking, Iceman got up from his seat and walked towards Lin Rui’s side in a few steps.

“En, then, I’ll leave it to you here.” Lin Rui also stood up. Before turning around, Lin Rui spoke to Harry beside him.

“Got it.”

Then Lin Rui and the agitated Iceman left the meeting room, and the rest of the people also dispersed. In addition to Lin Rui and Iceman who went out to play in the snowy field, Storm also went out alone shortly after Iceman left.

She can also learn new things in such an environment. While Rogers and SHIELD tried their best to stay close to the Space Portal, Captain Rogers would not be as relaxed as Lin Rui and the others.

...

Ten minutes later, Lin Rui and Iceman, who had been far from the SHIELD temporary base, walked casually on the vast snowy field.

Huhu~

The cold wind never stops on the ice sheet of Siberia, and the wind with fine snow keeps blowing around Lin Rui. However, Lin Rui and Iceman are safe without a trace of cold on their body.

“Iceman, it would be too wasteful for you to release the Absolute Frozen Domain like this!” Lin Rui said with some doubts as he looked at Iceman beside him.

The wind on the Siberia ice sheet can’t do anything to Lin Rui and Iceman. Lin Rui didn’t even block them with his External Internal Energy as Iceman had directly released his Absolute Frozen Field Domain.

In Iceman’s field, the cold wind from outside can’t affect them at all. However, the temperature in the field of absolute freezing will never be warmer than the outside world.

“Haha, of course, I wouldn’t release the Domain in other places. But here, it doesn’t take much to release the Domain.” Iceman replied with a smile on his face after he heard Lin Rui’s words.

“Moreover, the environment here will allow me to get some exercise to improve my strength.”

This is also one of the reasons why Iceman came to Siberia. In addition to tracking the Magic Cube’s clues, the environment here can also allow Iceman to exercise his abilities. After all, his nickname Iceman was not just for show.

Compared to other Mutants with lower Mutations, Iceman had a very high Mutation Gene in his body. People with Low Mutation will not have much improvement in their Mutant Abilities from their awakening to adulthood.

However, people with high Mutation Levels will not only awaken more of their abilities as they grow up but they can also be strengthened in some other special ways.

There are many ways to strengthen their Mutant Abilities, the most common and simplest is undoubtedly the use of special drugs for Mutants.

The world has already developed drugs that can suppress and even eliminate Mutant Genes, so obviously, there are drugs that can also strengthen the Mutants.

However, this kind of medicine is not only small in variety, but they are also not particularly effective in many cases, so some accidents often occur. The team led by Stryker has been studying such drugs, and his modified Mutants are also his experimental products.

In addition to drugs, there are also other ways to stimulate Awakening again to enhance the Mutation Ability. Under normal circumstances, a Mutant can only awaken once in their lifetime.

But later, it was discovered that a Mutant can awaken a second time under special circumstances.

The second Awakening has a high chance of greatly increasing the strength of a Mutant, but there is also a high chance that their Mutant ability will be weakened or it may even disappear.

In addition to these, high-level Mutants like Iceman have another way to improve their Mutant Abilities. That is to influence themselves through some natural environment, and then influence their own mutant gene.

For example, if the Iceman Mutant ability belongs to the ice category, then he can use the cold here in Siberia to train his abilities.

“Oh! So that’s how it is, this is the first time I am hearing about this!” Lin Rui said with some surprise and his eyes lit up when he heard Iceman’s answer.

In Lin Rui’s original impression, Mutants’ abilities seemed to be limited from the beginning. Who is stronger and who is weaker, their level can be compared at a glance.

But now Lin Rui learned that the mutant ability can also be enhanced through training in certain environments, which is indeed something he did not know before.

“What about you? Mirage Knight, why did you come out? Do you also want to use the harsh environment here to train yourself? If this is the case then I can reduce my Domain.” Iceman looked at Mirage Knight, who was shrouded in his Domain and asked with a smile on his face.

Buzzing~

While talking, the Absolute Frozen Domain released from Iceman began to shrink, and it seemed that Lin Rui was going to be exposed to the outside environment.

“Hey? No! No! I don’t need to train in the cold wind outside. I was just bored sitting in the base so I wanted to come out and walk.” Lin Rui quickly spoke as one of his arms can already feel the cold wind outside.

“Is that so?” Iceman obviously didn’t believe Lin Rui’s answer.

Hum~

In the next second, Lin Rui’s whole body was exposed from the Absolute Frozen Domain. Even though Lin Rui was wearing the Phantom Suit, he still swayed a little in the cold wind on the Siberia ice sheet.
