Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 371

Chapter 371: The Advent Of Carnage
What the hell is that!? It was only thanks to Luna’s calm demeanor that she didn’t lash out at Arit in instinctual defense! Once Luna saw those eyes, Luna almost attacked Arit on reflex! Arit’s eyes were just like anima’s eyes!

Arit was not happy at all that Luna was going to be with Mark! Why does Arit have to go into hiding while Luna stays with Mark!? It wasn’t right!

Mark quickly turned Arit back to him and held her shoulders to make sure she was paying attention to what he was saying.

“Arit, I’m trusting you with this! Find Talia, take her to the bunker, protect her! I don’t know where the bunker is, so you have to find Talia and get there right now, do you understand!?”

Arit was obviously still not happy, but when she looked up at MArk’s serious gaze, she bit her lip hard enough to draw blood before she looked away and eventually nodded in agreement. Since Mark was trusting her with this, Arit decided that she was going to do it. Arit turned to the hotel and, after giving Mark one last glance, she ran in to find Talia.

Once Arit left, Mark narrowed his eyes at the giant Eldritch class anima on the horizon. It looked massive even from this far away, and Mark knew it would be even larger once he got closer. Mark could only imagine how much damage something like that could do. They had to get over there as quickly as possible.

Slowly, Mark’s mouth began to split into a grin as he felt his heart rate increasing.

“We need to call for reinforcements. This isn’t something that the two of us can handle on our own.”

Luna suddenly spoke up, and Mark turned to her in surprise when he heard the cautious tone she was using. Mark didn’t think someone like Luna would be afraid of a mere Eldritch class. Wasn’t she used to fighting things like this already? She had been a Sovereign for almost two years now, so she should have fought something this large at least once before.

Luna could almost hear Mark’s thoughts just from the expression on his face and she shook her head.

“A high Eldritch is nothing like what you fought in that assessment. It is in an entirely different class of its own and seeing one this large is next to impossible. This is a first for me. I have only fought a high Eldritch smaller than this one when my guild was working together with the government. Alec Ben was with us, and we still suffered heavy casualties just to bring it down. Although that was a year ago and I am stronger than I was back then, I don’t know if we can handle this monster on our own without any help. This is a monster that can destroy the entire continent if it is left unchecked. If we are reckless and end up getting defeated, this entire island would sink in less than an hour.”

So even that speedster SOVERIGN being there wasn’t enough to take down the Eldritch without casualties? Was it really that strong?

Mark didn’t like being afraid of a monster before even facing it, but he couldn’t just disregard Luna’s opinions either. If she thought that the Eldritch was dangerous enough that they would need reinforcements, then he didn’t mind her calling for more help.

KA-BOOM!!

BOOM!

ROARRRRRRR!!!

The sound of a massive explosion resounded across the island once more as the Elder Eldritch continued its destructive march forward. Mark shook his head and spoke up while crouching.

“We can call for reinforcements on the way. Let’s first get over there. The monster is going to keep moving regardless of what we do, so we have to at least stop it from getting to the festival.”

Mark understood that they might be walking into a fight that was far above their abilities, but he decided not to think too much about it as he and Luna flashed towards the festival faster than the speed of sound!

BOOM!

He and Luna were the only things standing between this island and complete annihilation, so he would do what he had to do to protect the island till the end!

[On The City Streets]

“All civilians need to get to the hotels! Move! Move!”

BOOM!

“What the fuck is that thing! Is that an anima? It has a human face!”

“It doesn’t matter! Just keep it here while the civilians are evacuating! It’s a calamity! If it gets past us, then they’re all dead!”

“Mummy! I can’t find my mummy!”

“Shit, come on kid! We’ll find your mummy later!”

KA-BOOM!

A loud explosion resounded across the area as one of the superhumans used her blessing to blow up the ground in front of the anima, pushing it back when it tried to take a step forward! The anima roared in anger as it fell back on its ass! It swung its arm in a wide arc to try and grab the superhumans near it, but they quickly jumped back to avoid the arm while activating their most destructive spell!

Even though they were all attacking at the same time with their strongest spells, the most they could do was to hold the anima back. Their spells weren’t strong enough for them to seriously injure it.

“Keep the anima here! Don’t let it get to the forest!”

“There’s another one in the forest! The civilians are going right towards it!”

“There’s an S rank there! They can take care of it before the civilians get there. We need to focus on this one!”

It was absolute carnage on the festival grounds as superhumans tried their best to deal with the many anima that dropped from the sky! The superhumans present at the festival were mainly B and C ranks, so it took many of them to handle even one of the anima that dropped. As time went on, the superhumans began to realize that they didn’t have the power necessary to handle something like this on their own!

There were only forty superhumans in the region with more than thirty anima, and since many of them were B and C ranked with only seven A ranks and a single S rank, they needed to team up to handle even one of the anima. This meant that there were many anima that were allowed to roam freely without any superhumans there to keep them in check or kill them!
