Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 508

Chapter 508: We Can Talk About This!
[Mana Consumption For Activation: 500 mana points per second]

…

‘You’ve gotta be fucking with me. Five hundred mana points a second!? You might as well just throw my fucking mana down a drain.’

[No, the system is not ‘fucking with you’. The system advises you to increase your mana stat as quickly as possible in order to properly utilize this skill.]

…

The user has been gifted +2000 Stat Points and +2000 Skill Points for his efforts in defeating Gunther Jake.

…

The user has defeated [The Trickster God’s Favourite] and prevented the first phase of his plan from being completed. The user’s efforts have drawn the attention of the Asgardian god of thunder and lightning, and the protector of humans and gods, Thor. The user has been granted an artifact.

Thor has granted the user the artifact [Shard of Mjolnir – EPIC].

[Shards of Mjolnir – Scraps left behind by the dwarves during the creation of the Asgardian artifact Mjolnir and collected by Thor for his collection. Thor has been seeking a worthy mortal to gift the artifact to for a long time now, but he has not been able to find anyone due to the fact that Zeus monopolizes most of the mortals with a high lightning affinity. The user’s actions against Salazar, as well as the courage the user showed while facing off against Loki, have opened Thor’s heart to the user. Thor now views the user as one of his own.]

[Effects of [Shard of Mjolnir]]

– The user has been granted the innate skill [Lightning Bolt].

[Lightning Bolt: The user channels raw electrical energy into their hands, forming crackling bolts of lightning that can be hurled like javelins, striking enemies with explosive force.]

– All beings with a lightning affinity will immediately recognize the user.

…

Due to the similarities between the [Shards of Mjolnir] and [Gloves of The Thunder God], the system is capable of fusing these two artifacts to form one stronger artifact.

[Does the user wish to fuse the two artifacts? Yes/No]

…

Mark immediately chose yes.

…

[Shards of Mjolnir – EPIC] and [Gloves of The Thunder God – S] have fused to form [Gauntlet of The Thunder God – PHANTASMAL].

…

Mark’s gloves suddenly vanished from his hands once this prompt appeared and a new glove materialized on his hands.

Well, Mark couldn’t really call these gloves anymore since they were gauntlets now.

The main material of the gauntlets was still the black cloth that made up his former gloves, but now there was a metal alloy covering his knuckles and going all the way to the forearm. No matter how much Mark looked at it, he couldn’t tell what sort of metal it was. It wasn’t like anything he had seen on Earth. It must be the shards of Mjolnir that made up that part of the gauntlets. The gauntlets were still flexible, and as Mark tightened and loosened his fists, he could tell that he wouldn’t have any issue with flexibility even with the metal there.

It looked a thousand times cooler than it did before.

…

[Effects of Gauntlet of The Thunder God]

– The user retains the innate skills [Lightning Surge] and [Lightning Bolt] of the two initial artifacts [Gloves of The Thunder God] and [Shard of Mjolnir].

– All lightning-based skills receive a 100% increase in strength.

– All children of Zeus and Thor who become allies of the user receive a permanent 30% increase in strength.

…

The user has been gifted +1000 Skill Points and +1000 Stat Points for his efforts in defeating The Trickster God’s Favourite.

…

The system has withheld the remaining rewards due to the deal made between the user and Loki. All remaining rewards will be available to the user upon completion of the deal.

…

New Mission [Daring A God]

The user has made a bet with the Trickster God, Loki, and this bet has been written into the fabric of reality by being sworn to the Styx. Destroy Salazar’s plans in the real world and save your country from destruction in order to successfully complete this mission.

…

Due to the vague nature of the deal, all mission parameters will be calculated after the mission is complete, and rewards will be given out according to the user’s contributions.

…

Loki backed away from Mark once the deal was made and turned around to glare at Kevin, who was busy trembling far away from the two of them and watching on helplessly as his soul was basically sold away like cheap bread. Kevin couldn’t believe how they just concluded how his future was going to go! If Mark managed to somehow win this, doesn’t that mean he was going to be in limbo for eternity!?

“T-This isn’t fair! I should have a say in this as well! I should have a chance to save myself!”

Kevin shouted out in despair as he tried to scramble to his feet, and Loki gave the most nonchalant look Kevin had ever seen in his life. Loki just stared at him for a few seconds before he turned away.

“If you were incapable of creating a worthy challenge in all the time you had, then you do not deserve to live. I should have destroyed you already, but I am giving you a chance to prove your worth to me. Do not make me even angrier than I already am. Get out of my sight, mortals.”

The scenery suddenly changed again, and Mark and Kevin were back in Sasha’s ALTERWORLD. Kevin immediately scrambled back from Mark in fear as Mark turned to him, and Kevin turned around to get to his feet and run, but Mark called on his Fangs, and the long invisible chain wrapped itself around Kevin tightly and made him fall to the ground with a grunt!

Kevin tried to struggle out from the chains, but it was impossible for him to break it! The chains were wrapping him up like a mummy from his ankles all the way up to his neck!

“Mark! Mark, we can talk about this! I can just go! I don’t plan to come after you or your family! I won’t even bother you again! I’ll just live like a hermit in the mountains or something! I don’t want to go into limbo! Please! Please just -!!”

Mark narrowed his eyes at Kevin and immediately made the chains wrap around his mouth as well, preventing him from being able to speak anymore. Mark walked up to the mummified body and spoke in a final tone.

“I told you at the start of all this that I would make sure you regret this, didn’t I? You sent assassins after my family, Salazar and that is a line you should not have crossed. You are not going to enjoy this.”

Kevin swallowed as he felt true despair settling in. Right now, the only thing he could do was to put all of his hope in the plans that he made for America. He could only wish that somehow, Mark did not win.

Mark turned away from Kevin’s tied-up body and looked towards his system to see how many points he had now.
