Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 328: That's Perfect

Even though many people have always been talking about how powerful the SOVEREIGN were, many of them have not seen one fighting firsthand and they do not know if the rumors were exaggerated or not. They only heard rumors of the strength of a SOVEREIGN from members of their guild or on the news whenever they were talking about their recent achievements or fights!

BOOM!

A massive explosion suddenly went off and the superhumans all ducked as the front of the building that Mark flew into was blown to pieces! A body was thrown out of the building and they all saw that it was the octopus-based anima that had attacked Mark. It slammed into the ground and slid back for a few meters before it flipped itself over to stop itself.

The anima was breathing heavily and the female superhuman couldn't help but notice something unbelievable when she saw the look on its face. Was it… scared?

"Don't tell me you're running already? I didn't even hit you yet. Get back here, you bastard."

A calm voice echoed out from inside the building and Mark was seen walking out while cracking his neck calmly. One of his hands was in his pocket and the other one was behind his head as he scratched his head with a bored sigh.

[Current power output: 15%]

Mark came to a stop about fifty meters away from the anima and he raised a brow as the anima took a step back. Mark couldn't blame the anima for being afraid. What just happened inside that building would be enough to put the fear of God into even the most inhuman creatures, so Mark wasn't surprised.

After the anima sent Mark into the building and jumped after him, it suddenly started railing into Mark with the intention of overwhelming him! Its punches were like a Gatling gun that destroyed large portions of the building as it slammed into Mark over and over!

But Mark didn't even bother to counter its attacks.

Instead, he almost seemed bored as the light of excitement that was once shining in his eyes slowly started to die out until it was completely gone. Mark blocked a punch that the anima overextended and stepped into the anima's range. Mark reached up and grabbed the anima by one of the tentacles on its face and dragged its face down so that it was staring him right in the eye.

Mark gave it a blank-faced look that showed the anima just how pointless all of its attacks had been. And when Mark spoke, it was almost like a father telling his son that he was a disappointment.

"Why are you so fucking weak?"

And at that moment, the anima felt fear for the first time in its life! It released a loud scream and shot a massive blast of black ink into Mark's face. Mark was forced to let go of its tentacle. He ducked low to avoid the ink before jumping back calmly as the ground started to shift under his feet.

'Hmm. What is going on now?'

Another monster suddenly blasted out from underground and Mark dodged to the side as it tried to grab him using its large pincers. The new monster was a cockroach-like anima with large wings on its back. It had the body and head of a cockroach and large pincers on its mouth that looked sharp enough to tear through steel!

SCREECH!

The cockroach screeched loudly at Mark as it charged towards him together with the other octopus anima! Mark crouched low and avoided the cockroach's wide swing before shooting upward faster than either of them could follow and delivering a devastating blow into the cockroach's midsection!

[Critical Hit]!

BOOM!

The force of Mark's punch was so intense that it completely pulverized the cockroach at once, rendering it to nothing as its blood splashed against the rubble behind it!

Splat!!

Mark's face was still apathetic, but inside his mind, he was thinking quickly about what just happened. These monsters just tried to gang up on him, didn't they? This wasn't something new to Mark, but the only time that Mark had seen monsters acting this way was on that island when they were following the orders of the ant anima or inside the ALTERWORLD when he was carrying out his assessment.

Basically,

anima only act like this when they are following the orders of something that they see as their leader.

Are the anima evolving or something? Or is there an anima here that can control them? Is it because of the anima lord that the system spoke about?

The octopus-based anima couldn't believe how easily Mark killed its comrade and it realized at that moment that it didn't stand a chance against Mark! It immediately jumped out from the building in shock ns tried to put as much distance between it and Mrk as possible. The only thought in its head right now was escaping from here quickly! Mark calmly walked out of the collapsing building.

Throughout all of this, Mark's left hand never left his pocket.

"So, tell me, can you talk? A few of the previous ones I fought could talk. Are you smart enough for something like that?"

The anima seemed to understand what Mark was saying, but it made no move to respond and Mark clicked his tongue in irritation as he concluded that it could understand him but it couldn't respond. That was useless. He couldn't have a conversation with something like this.

Mark took a step forward and narrowed his eyes at the anima once he saw it take a step back in response. Mark suddenly brought his hand out from his pocket and raised them with a small smile.

"Alright, alright. Maybe I was too harsh. I'll give you one chance to run. If you can run far enough then maybe I won't be able to catch you. I'm a good person, aren't I?"

Mark suddenly said something crazy and both the female superhuman that was watching from the side with wide eyes as well as the anima were stunned by it. The anima turned to look at the female superhuman with an inquisitive look. It almost seemed like the anima was asking her if it was really okay to believe Mark or not.

The woman was surprised by the anima's sudden closeness to her as she took a defensive step back. She couldn't let her guard down in front of a monster like this. Even if Mark was treating this like a joke, this monster was still a calamity that would kill her in seconds if she was not careful.

Mark spoke up like he was talking to a child.

"Hey, hey, she isn't a part of this. It's just you and me, kid. Come on now, I don't bite. Run. Run. Run~"

The monster seemed to finally come to a conclusion as it took a step back experimentally as if it was testing to see if Mark would really attack it or not. Mark dropped his hands with a smile and when the anima saw that Mark was not moving to attack, it finally turned around and bolted!

Hahahaha! Stupid human! The anima almost laughed loudly as it picked up speed! It was going to run far away from here and cause destruction somewhere else! The human does not know that it was one of the fastest creatures among all the anima! Its slippery body and natural agility allowed it to surpass any other anima in its rank both on land and in the water!

It would never be caught!

A black mark glowed on the anima's tentacle.

Slash!

Eh?

The look of shock on the anima's face would have been comical if it wasn't so ugly. The anima could only stare at its missing right arm in shock as it wondered what just happened.
