# Chapter 442: Magneto: Join Me, Or Casualties!

"He is indeed a troublesome opponent."

Butcher, clad in a black trench coat, flew expressionlessly to Magneto's side and said indifferently, "His eyes can emit highly destructive light beams, and like me, he possesses supersonic flight. Furthermore, it's certain that he has sided with the human camp, making him an absolute stumbling block in our mutant rule plan."

Homelander's appearance brought hope to the crowd who had fallen into despair, especially Department Head Gaston, who secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Stumbling block?" Driven by fury, Magneto, who had just escaped Prison, felt his ability was stronger than ever. He looked at Homelander with a cold face and said domineeringly, "Then let me see if he has the qualifications to be a stumbling block!"

With that, Magneto, like a leader commanding an army, suddenly waved his arms forward. In an instant, the metal objects behind him converged into a massive steel torrent, and like a tsunami, carrying unimaginable strength, it surged towards Homelander. Even a single rebar within it seemed to possess the strength to pierce through everything.

Facing this attack, Homelander seemed unavoidable! Seeing this natural disaster-like scene, the people present couldn't help but worry if Homelander could withstand Magneto's attack.

Just as everyone held their breath, suddenly! Two crimson red high-temperature light beams shot out from the depths of Homelander's eyes, actually tearing apart the incoming steel torrent directly.

Immediately after, Homelander, whose eyes were deep red, moved slightly.

Boom! A terrifying explosion suddenly rang out at his location, and at the same time, a tilted umbrella-shaped sonic boom cloud abruptly spread backward.

However, Homelander's speed was far faster than sound. The moment Magneto heard the sonic boom, Homelander had already arrived before him. Simultaneously, red laser carrying terrifying high temperature roared forth, seemingly intending to completely pierce through Magneto's head.

However, at this critical juncture, Butcher, using teleportation, suddenly appeared in front of Magneto, blocking Homelander's attack for him.

Butcher, who blocked the laser with crossed arms, was sent flying by a huge impact force, and Erik was sent smashing towards the Ground along with him.

One could see the horror in Erik's eyes, having brushed past the Grim Reaper, vanish in an instant. Just as he was about to land, he decisively controlled the magnetic field, forming a semi-transparent, water ripple-like spherical barrier around his body.

Bang! The trembling Ground kicked up a cloud of dust, but relying on the barrier, Magneto was unscathed.

Xia Shang had seen the barrier surrounding him in the movie Apocalypse. Although its range was far less extensive than in the movie, it still possessed the characteristic of isolating matter and energy, capable of blocking almost all attacks.

"As expected of a Level 4 mutant, it's a pity your attention is all focused on The Pentagon. Just lifting the Building consumed most of your mental focus." Homelander was like a shadow; his movement speed seemed no different from teleportation to bystanders.

As he gathered strength and punched the barrier, it was hard to imagine that the terrifying strength capable of collapsing a building only caused slight ripples on the barrier's surface.

"Butcher was right, you are indeed a troublesome guy." Magneto understood that only by putting the building down would he have enough mental focus to deal with the Homelander before him.

Without hesitation, he directly released the magnetic field covering the building.

Boom! The Pentagon, suspended in the air, crashed to the Ground, kicking up countless dust. Leaving aside other things, just the shockwave generated when the building fell caused the people on the Ground to lose their footing, falling to the Ground one after another.

"As a mutant, you shouldn't stand with the human side. I'm giving you a choice again now, join me, or death."

Relying on the force field barrier that was immune to most attacks, Magneto said fearlessly. At the same time, he extended his right hand, controlling several rebar to wrap around Homelander's limbs, attempting to restrict Homelander's actions in this way.

"I choose..."

Boom! Homelander's crimson red eyes instantly turned black. Immediately after, two even more powerful black lasers gushed out from the depths of his eyes.

The high-temperature beams containing vast energy, carrying an aura of destruction, blasted towards Magneto inside the barrier.

Unfortunately, even this level of attack could not pierce through Magneto's force field barrier.

Seeing this scene, the hearts of the people present sank. Could it be that they ultimately could not escape the fate of being killed?

"What a tough turtle shell," Xia Shang, who had transformed into Homelander, secretly exclaimed, but this result was within his expectations.

"To be honest, you are indeed the strongest mutant I have ever seen besides Charles. Unfortunately, you made a wrong choice. I will ruthlessly eliminate you," Erik said with a cold voice.

"Want to kill me? You can try."

Xia Shang seemingly gave up struggling, allowing Erik to control the rebar, piercing towards his skin.

Cannot pierce through?! Magneto felt Homelander's body was like steel, astonishingly hard. Even if he modified the tip of the rebar into an arrowhead shape, he couldn't pierce Homelander's skin.

"It seems you haven't unearthed the full potential of your ability."

Xia Shang easily snapped the rebar wrapped around his arm. Compared to the older version of Magneto, the current Magneto's method of attack was still too immature.

It should be known that Magneto could completely turn metal into extremely tiny metal particles, and then invade into the opponent's body through skin pores, causing widespread destruction.

Of course, to prevent metal particles from invading his body, Xia Shang had covered a layer of psychic power on his body surface in advance, but it wasn't needed.

"My teammate is here." At this moment, Homelander raised his head and looked towards the sky.

Before they knew it, Xia Shang had already arrived at the scene with Charles and others. Under the effect of psychic power, they stood in mid-air as if walking on flat Ground, seeing Erik confronting Homelander.

"The situation looks pretty bad," Gambit said, raising his eyebrows after seeing the nearly collapsed The Pentagon.

"Erik's helmet can block my brainwave interference, I cannot invade his brain," Charles said.

"I can try to take his helmet off."

Quicksilver, with silver hair, was eager to try.
