Strongest Superhuman System - Chapter 581

Chapter 581: Battle of The Barricades
Michael stared down at the body of Theresa as red-hot fury filled him, and he roared out his command to his troops and sent them forward.

“KILL THEM ALL!”

Mark immediately activated [Crown of The Golden Horizon] as the angels moved as one toward the demons and started activating their light magic to attack. Mark braced himself as he felt the enemies’ rage increase even more, while his own men gained a boost in morale.

[Mana: 12014/12015]

Mark had been using his Crown for a long time now, and he knew he was using up a lot of mana, so when the system sent the message of how much mana was left, Mark couldn’t help but grin. He had been using the mana granted by his bonus skills, so he was only just starting to cut into his main supply. The Mortal Legend skill that had recently increased a lot gave Mark a boost of almost fifty percent in all his stats, and it was that mana that Mark had been using until now!

Mark was no longer worried about how much mana he was using in this fight, and he left the Crown active as he saw all the enemies change direction and begin charging at him. Mark’s Crown had a passive effect similar to the Taunting skill. It increased the enemies’ aggressiveness and drew them toward Mark endlessly. But unlike the Taunting skill, which only had a small chance of working on enemies based on the percentage of success, the Crown didn’t have such a limitation—it could work on anyone around Mark, so long as they were an enemy!

Mark also knew that the effects of the Crown were increased when he was up against enemies that were either light-based or fire-based creatures. The Crown had the special ability to anger these enemies more than any other, so the angels were being agitated even faster than Mark thought they would be!

But even with the large number of enemies charging towards him, Mark didn’t have a hint of fear in his eyes as he stood against them. Michael was the first person to reach Mark, and he drew his hand back as a light spear appeared in it! Michael roared and threw it forward, and Mark charged forward, blasting off the ground with intensity as he swiped his hand to the side, easily dismissing the spear like it was nothing!

…

Michael’s eyes widened in shock as he saw Mark deflecting the spear so easily and Mark wasted no time as he slammed into him hard!

BOOM!

They both crashed into the mass of angels that had been falling from the sky, scattering many of them and ruining their formation! The demons behind Mark had also started moving the moment Mark activated the Crown, and once they saw the angels lose formation, they wasted no time attacking many of them and dealing fatal blows before the angels could regroup. The demons fought like true monsters, forgoing all self-preservation and instead trying their best to cause as much damage as possible before they were killed. The odds were stacked against them, but they refused to back down!

There were two or three angels that were A-rank, and all three of them charged after Mark, ignoring the other demons around as they went to help Michael!

Mark and Michael flew through the hordes of angels that were charging forward, and Mark easily swatted away any angel that tried to attack him with light spells! Michael covered his entire body in light and put his hand forward, forming a large magic circle that spewed out hundreds of arrows straight at Mark! Mark put the fangs in front of him to block the arrows, but he was still thrown back from the force as he slammed into the ground!

Three angels charged at him to attack, but Mark easily dealt with them and then raised a hand to block Michael’s blade that slammed against the fang wrapped around his left hand! Mark grabbed the blade and squeezed down hard, making the entire thing break from the strain, and Michael frowned as he formed another one, and they flew into a frenzy of attacks and deflections!

Michael released a mad flurry of attacks, slashing left and right at a pace that was almost blinding, and Mark easily dodged around most of them while allowing some of them to pass through and hit him so that he could have a free shot at attacking Michael. The light blade couldn’t hurt Mark due to the effects of the Crown, so Mark wasn’t worried about that, and if not for the fact that Michael’s swordplay was immaculate, Mark knew that he would have already won this fight!

The two monsters battled at the center of the raging battles around them, tearing into and past any weaker demons and angel that dared to cross their path, carving grooves throughout the earth as they tried to kill each other!

Mark used his chain, sending it forward and trying to wrap around Michael, but the golden light surrounding Michael suddenly pulsed and caused the chain to fall loose before it could tie around Michael properly! Mark’s brow rose in surprise before his mouth slowly started to form into a grin as he felt his heart rate picking up. The realization that Michael wasn’t as weak as the other S-rank he killed gave Mark a sense of fulfillment as he began to enjoy the fight!

Mark crossed paths with five angels who were battling against three demons, and he released a punch that tore through three of the angels and blew the others away before he brought his arm forward and intercepted another flurry of arrows from Michael! He dashed forward, and electricity crackled to life all around him!

The sky darkened, and thunder rumbled across the landscape as Mark’s innate skill surged to life! Michael realized the danger in the skill Mark was about to unleash and charged into the sky, dashing away so that Mark would not be able to use it against him, but Mark released the Fangs towards Michael, using it to wrap around his body. The golden light pulsed once more and was about to remove the Fangs before it could get tight, but just before it could, Mark activated his skill.

[Lightning Surge]!

BZZT!

A flash of lightning raced through the Fangs and towards Michael, enveloping him in a wave of crackling blue light as he felt his entire body shake from the intensity!

The Fangs and Gauntlets in Mark were both PHANTASMAL rank, and for someone like Michael, who was only a low-level PHANTASMAL, it was an intense pain that shot through his body the moment he felt the lightning!

Michael quickly tried to get the chain off him, but a blue light from below drew his attention, and his eyes widened as he saw Mark in the final stage of a throwing motion! Something like a polearm was crackling with a sinister aura in his hand, and Michael quickly activated his defenses!

[Lightening Bolt]!!
