Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 229

Chapter 229: Is This All You’ve Got?
Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Three large monsters, each three times larger than Mark, suddenly dropped from the sky and destroyed large sections of the bridge upon landing. Mark put his hand up to his face as one of them—a large lion-human hybrid with the head of a lion and the body of a human—opened its mouth and roared angrily at Mark!

ROARRR!!

The other two monsters were also human hybrids, one with vines coming out from all its limbs and the third with a lizard head, crawling on the ground on all fours.

‘All Calamity Classes. The lion is the strongest.’

Mark immediately took a large step back as he felt the lion gathering power in its mouth. It opened its mouth, and a thunderous roar echoed out, creating a sonic boom that destroyed the spot where Mark had been standing. Mark was already in the air before the attack could hit!

SCREEEECHH!!

BOOM!

‘Sonic Blast. High damage, low radius. Not bad. Its range is probably much further than this, so the anima is smart enough to gauge distance and change its power output based on that distance.”

Mark stopped himself from moving back as he caught hold of one of the bridge suspenders and he blasted forward as he headed straight for the lion! The anima with vines coming out from all its limbs shot one of its arm-vines at Mark, but Mark didn’t bother to stop as he grabbed the vine! He pulled hard and jumped over the lion-headed anima while wrapping the vine around its head!

ROAR!

The lion-headed anima roared in anger as it grabbed the vine and tried to pull it off, but the anima with vine limbs roared in pain as it felt its vines getting pulled and ran toward the lion-headed anima in anger! Mark grinned, and his hands started to spark as he activated his lightning skill.

[Lightning Surge]!!

A massive wave of lightning exploded out from Mark’s arm and traveled through the vine! It slammed into the lion-headed anima before coursing through the vine and electrocuting the vine-limbed anima as well!

HISS!

The anima with the lizard head suddenly charged straight for Mark, and Mark wasted no time as he pulled hard on the vine! He dragged both anima toward him and placed them right in the path of the lizard anima as they all collided with each other and were sent flying back from the force of the lizard-headed anima’s charge!

But that was not enough to take them out, and Mark could see them getting back on their feet as they prepared to charge at him again!

“Hng!”

ROAR!

Mark pulled on the vine and dragged the vine-based anima toward him! He let go of the vine and pulled back his fist before delivering a devastating blow that eviscerated the anima’s stomach completely!

BOOM!

The entire section of the anima disappeared as Mark’s punch tore a hole right through it! The anima wasn’t even allowed to fall before Mark grabbed it and used it to slam into the lion anima that was trying to attack Mark from behind!

The anima was thrown back, and Mark focused his attention on the lizard anima!

HISS!!

The lizard anima charged for Mark in anger as it tried to take a bite out of him! Mark grabbed it by its mouth, and it didn’t even have a chance to fight back before its mouth was torn open in one pull!

SQUELCH!

Green blood spilled everywhere, and Mark held the two halves of the calamity class in his hands as he turned around and stared at the lion-based anima that was behind him. The lion anima now seemed to be a little more cautious as it moved around Mark from a distance. After seeing Mark tear one of its kin apart like nothing, the lion anima was wary of Mark’s power, and it was trying to think of a new way to attack.

Mark didn’t even bother watching the anima as he dropped the two halves of the lizard anima to the ground. A pair of black gloves appeared in Mark’s arms, and he began to put them on as he started walking toward the lion anima calmly.

The lion-based anima took a single step back as it noticed Mark walking toward it, and it began to feel the first traces of fear in its heart as it realized that it was probably not going to be able to win against Mark. Should it run? No, that was cowardly. The lion anima was still a lion, and it was as prideful as any other lion in the world. It would fight back until it couldn’t fight anymore.

“You know, I won’t chase after you if you run. You aren’t worth the trouble.”

Mark was talking calmly as he approached the lion anima, but the lion anima was not able to understand what Mark was saying. All the lion anima saw was someone challenging it, and it roared in anger as it decided that it was going to fight no matter what!

“Well, I suppose you wouldn’t understand what I’m saying anyway!”

[Sonic Blast!]

ROAR!

The lion anima charged for Mark while unleashing its sonic blast, and Mark pulled back his fist.

[Current power output: 40%]

[Critical Strike]!

…

TWOOOOMMM!!!

It was like the entire ALTERWORLD shook from that one punch! Everyone watching the scene between Mark and the three calamity classes could only stare in shock as they saw Mark release a punch that literally destroyed the sound barrier! The cameras shook, and some of them went offline as they couldn’t withstand the wind pressure from Mark’s punch, and the bridge that Mark was standing on was destroyed even more by that one punch!

“My god. Isn’t this too much? Those are Calamity classes, you know.”

“They are low-level calamities. It’s not like he did anything special.”

“So, can you kill a single low-level calamity without taking a single injury?”

“…”

“Yeah, that’s what I thought. It’s crazy that he can do that.”

The people around the room were all talking about Mark’s display of power, and many of them were trying to understand just how strong Mark really was. From what they had seen, there was no doubt that Mark was at least an S rank. Even though a high-level A rank like Tylor could kill the Disaster Classes that appeared in the first test, there was no way that an A rank would be able to handle three Calamity Classes at the same time. That would take at least an S rank. So now they were sure that Mark was an S rank.

But that was all that they were sure about.

From how easily Mark just handled those monsters, they all knew that Mark could handle a lot more. He didn’t sustain a single injury from those monsters, so does that mean that he could handle high-level Calamities as well!?

Luna was watching the test with a narrowed gaze as she tried to understand something about what Mark had been doing all this while. Luna was not surprised that Mark went against the calamities. As far as Luna knew, Mark was already an undefined in her eyes, so she was sure that he would be able to defeat a lot more than what they were dishing out.

‘But how is he able to use lightning?’
