Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 327

Chapter 327: There’s Three Of Them!?
Tina didn’t even know what was happening, but her entire body seemed to be vibrating in excitement as she prepared to run towards the position where they heard the explosion.

But once she heard Mark tell her that they were going somewhere else, she frowned in disappointment.

“The Anima will show up there. Just follow me.”

Mark and Tina flashed off the rooftop, and they started to run towards the Fifth Avenue intersection that Pat pointed out. The location was about fifty kilometers away from the school, and they hadn’t even gotten all the way there before a massive monster broke through a building right in front of them!

BOOM!

The monsters had an appearance that was very similar to a grizzly bear. It had brown fur, and there was a mad look in its eyes and it snarled at Mark and Tina. On its arms and joints, sharp bone-like blades were growing out in a way that would allow it to use them as weapons. From its appearance, Mark was able to gauge the power level and possible fighting abilities of the monster. Mark frowned. No, not worth it.

“Tina.”

“Yes, Marky!!”

SLAM!

Tina suddenly appeared from behind Mark as she slammed into the monster’s midsection with a lightning charge that drove them both to the ground! The ground shook under the force of Tina’s charge, and the bear roared angrily as it tried to grab Tina and throw her off, but Tina just jumped back and avoided its paw before her whole body started to get covered in lightning.

Mark turned away from the fight. He knew that the monster was not enough to give Tina any trouble, so he decided that he would just focus on the next ones that were coming.

BOOM!

Another massive explosion echoed through the area, and Mark landed on the ground and turned towards the explosion while tightening his gloves. Mark was standing in the middle of the open street, and he looked around and made sure that there were no humans before turning back to face whatever was coming. Mark saw something that looked like a humanoid octopus breaking through houses while running towards him. The creature had the body of a human, but its head was completely covered in tentacles that were wiggling around like worms. Its skin was purple, and there was a strange oily liquid covering its entire body and making it seem like it was shining under the sunlight. Honestly, it was a little disgusting.

But no matter how disgusting it seemed, Mark could tell that this was the one he should be fighting. The bear Anima looked strong, but Mark knew that it was only a low-level calamity. This one, on the other hand, was a high-level calamity. Mark kept his eyes peeled for signs of the final calamity class that Pat said he saw, but no matter how he looked around, there was no sign of it.

Were the other superhumans holding it back?

“GHOST, you’re here!”

Three superhumans, two women and a man, suddenly appeared from the air and landed close to GHOST. They were breathing heavily, and some of them had injuries on their bodies, so it was obvious that they had been fighting against the Anima and they were already getting tired. Mark didn’t see any injuries on the Anima at all, so that meant the superhumans were not able to even hurt it once. They would only get in his way.

“Stand down.”

Mark gave a simple order, and the woman who looked like the de facto leader of the group frowned as she walked forward and said that they could help in the fight.

“We’ve been chasing the monster for a while now. Just a little more and we would have won.”

Does that thing look like it is in any pain at all?

Mark gave the superhumans a curious stare while asking them this, and none of them could deny that they hadn’t done much damage to the anima at all as they looked away.

Mark knew the Anima did not come here because it was running from them. It was just playing with them. Mark ignored the woman and turned to face the monster.

“I don’t care if you think you would’ve won. If you want to make yourselves useful, then go out and find the third Anima that attacked. Hold that one back until I finish this one quickly and come to help out.”

Is he looking down on us?

That was the thought that went through the leader’s mind. She was obviously not happy that Mark was taking her prey for himself. But the others in her group were different. They didn’t care that Mark wanted to take over the fight because both of them knew that there was no way they would win against that monster! They had been fighting and chasing it for more than two minutes now and it still looked as fresh as the moment it appeared! Meanwhile, they looked like they just ran through a warzone! It was obvious that they were going to lose!

The woman in the lead was still not happy, but she let go of her anger and decided that she would just listen to Mark since Mark was the highest-ranked person there. Mark was a Sovereign and she was only an A rank, so there was nothing she could do about Mark wanting to take over.

“Okay, you can take over, just try not to—”

“Hmm.”

BOOM!

Mark didn’t bother waiting for her to finish her sentence as he shot off towards the monster! Once the monster saw that Mark was rushing towards it, it recognized the danger that Mark posed and roared in anger as it tried to assert dominance!

…

Mark raised a brow in surprise once he saw what the system sent to him. What the hell was an Anima Lord?

“ROARRRRRRR!!!!”

Mark was not able to think much about the mission from the system as he had to focus back on the Anima in front of him.

The octopus-headed Anima roared loudly as it charged for Mark and used the momentary distraction to charge into him and blast him into a building on the opposite side of the road!

SLAM!!

Mark was thrown through the building and the Anima immediately charged into the building as it attempted to deliver a barrage of attacks without giving Mark a chance to rest.

The superhumans that Mark had ordered to go find the last Anima were immediately worried when they saw Mark getting blown away.

“Shit, even Ghost can’t handle this Anima!”

“Should we go help him?”

The female leader shook her head and told the superhumans behind her to go and do as Ghost ordered. It would be bad for them to be caught off guard by the third Anima because they were busy watching the fight.

The Anima charged toward the building in the distance and blasted through it as it disappeared from the sight of the superhumans. The female leader narrowed her eyes as she waited for something to happen. This woman was only an A rank and she knew that she and the rest of the superhumans there did not stand a chance against the Anima.

But Mark was a Sovereign, wasn’t he? There is no way Mark would also struggle against something like this.
