Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 538

Chapter 538: The Face Behind The Veil
[… To everyone watching at home, we can see from the team dynamics that GHOST has taken on the role of leader of the SOVEREIGNS, attacking the monster with all his strength while being supported by the others. From how little damage the others are causing, we can only assume that GHOST is the only superhuman capable of handling the monster in any capacity. We cannot get any closer due to how massive the monster is. If the helicopter hovers near it, we’d surely lose our lives, but we will try our best to bring you all the action and drama as it happens – Hey, watch out! Watch out!]

The reporter shouted at the helicopter pilot, warning him about a large rock hurtling in their direction from the fight. The helicopter pilot immediately moved out of the way to avoid it. The large slab slammed into another skyscraper behind them, and they quickly decided they weren’t far enough. They began to move further back so they wouldn’t become collateral damage in this fight.

Mark didn’t notice the reporters because of how focused he was on the fight, but he could feel some of his power increasing for some reason. This was due to the number of fans he was gaining all around the world, as people desperately cheered him on, hoping that he’d be able to win against the Armageddon. Everyone remembered how dangerous the last Armageddon was, and they knew they only survived because of KING. But as far as they knew, KING was no longer with them, and the only person they had to put their hopes in was GHOST.

So at the moment, all the hope and belief they once put in KING were being transferred to GHOST, and Mark’s title [Mortal Legend] kicked into overdrive!

[The User has gained 5 million fans: +5% to all skills]

[The User has gained 7 million fans: +7% to all skills]

[The User has gained 3 million fans: +3% to all skills]

[Total skill increase gained from [Mortal Legend]: +20%]

Mark’s muscles tensed, and the look in his eyes became even more focused as he dashed forward. He spoke into his comms and started giving orders to Luna and the others. It was time for them to finish this. Mark was going to put everything into destroying that crystal once and for all!

“Luna, I’m going to need platforms. A lot of them. Alec, Alpha, attack the monster and push it back once you see an opening. Ida, on my signal, use your gravity to push the monster down!”

Mark only waited for them to give a quick response before he increased his speed! He leaped into the air, landing on one of Luna’s platforms before blasting off that as well, heading toward the Armageddon! The Armageddon was already getting back to its feet and growled as black miasma began to leak from its body, corroding the environment and drowning everything in a sea of blackness. But Mark ignored that for now as he continued the plan!

Once the Armageddon laid eyes on Mark, Mark pulled back his fist and prepared to unleash a punch! The monster’s crystal immediately came to life as it prepared to attack Mark using its laser beam, but Mark brought up his other hand and activated his Constitution’s Innate ability!

[Ruler of the Null World II: Negation]

The monster’s laser beam suddenly spluttered out of existence before fizzling into nothing, and the monster was so shocked by this that it only had time to bring up a sloppy defense to protect its crystal before Mark’s attack hit it straight in the face!

[Divergent Fist]

KA-BOOM!!!

The attack rattled the monster, sending it stumbling backward in shock.

Mark’s Negation allowed him to erase any magical attack that was directed at him by using half of the mana that was used in launching the attack. Mark didn’t want to use it all this time because he knew that it would be stupid of him to try and match a monster like this in mana. Even though Mark was only using half the mana to negate the attack, he knew that the amount of mana the monster used on each of those lasers was going to be astronomical! But Mark needed to use it now for the element of surprise!

And just like Mark predicted, his mana levels dropped like water from a tap!

[Mana: 3750/11515]

The monster used six thousand mana points to create its laser, and the system took three thousand mana points from Mark to negate the attack.

Mark did not let up as he called out to Alec and Alpha Two, telling them to start the attack immediately! Alec and Alpha Two dashed in and began to unload on the monster, sending it reeling further back! The monster was already delirious from taking Mark’s Divergent Fist right in the face, so it couldn’t do anything as it stumbled back from the explosion and relentless attack from Alec and Alpha Two.

Mark’s eyes were narrowed in concentration as he hung off the side of the building and watched calmly. Just one more step. Just one more.

Clink!

Mark’s entire body tensed, and he blasted off the building towards the monster, leaving a massive crater in the side of it!

BOOM!

“IDA!! NOW!!”

[I like the way you say my name!]

Ida grinned as she ran forward to get the monster into her gravity radius!

The clinking sound from before was the monster’s feet touching the chain that Mark had set as a trap between two buildings. Mark knew that he needed to catch the monster while it was off guard, and in order to do that, he needed the monster to be confused about what was attacking it. Since Mark’s chains were invisible, the monster couldn’t tell that Mark had put them between two buildings behind it like a tripping wire. The monster’s feet hit the chain, and it suddenly found itself falling backward! Ida’s power also came to life as she increased the monster’s gravity, and forced it into a freefall that it couldn’t stop!

In the monster’s eyes, it basically just tripped over air, and the shock it was experiencing at the moment prevented it from being able to react as Mark flew towards its crystal like a fucking grim reaper!

“RRAAAARRRGGHH!”

Mark’s fist seemed to blur out of existence as a swirl of darkness converged right in the middle of it! The world faded to grey as color surged out from reality, and to an outsider, it would seem as though time stood still for a second before imploding on itself as reality rushed back into colored motion!

[Divergent Fist]!

[Sonic Impact]!

Mark’s face was set in a look of undeniable fury as his fist blurred forward and slammed into the crystal in the middle of the monster’s head!

CRACK!

BOOM!

ROARRRRR!

The monster opened its mouth, and a loud roar that sent sonic waves all across the landscape echoed through the region, sending all the other ELITE Ranks backward from the sheer pressure the monster was releasing, but Mark held on to the monster!

A large crack had appeared in the monster’s crystal, and Mark was not going to let this opportunity go by as he grabbed both halves of the crystal and pulled with all his strength, tearing a large hole in it and exposing the inside! Mark immediately pulled his hand back for another hit!

Halt-!

But Mark suddenly stopped, and his eyes widened in shock as Fiona’s unconscious face stared back at him.

‘What?’
