Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 14: City-Wide Announcement



Chapter 14: City-Wide Announcement

Francis started to shout more frantically as he felt intense pain in his hand! What sort of grip strength is this!? It felt like someone was using a metal clamp to press against his hand!

Both Esmeralda and Arit could only watch in shock as they saw the pained look on Francis' face and the blank apathy that Mark was showing! Arit knew that Mark had always been holding himself back from attacking Francis because of her. They have had too many conflicts and the only reason why they haven't fought till now was because she was always intervening before things could get too far! But she didn't know if she would be able to stop Mark this time, and she didn't know if she should stop him! Maybe Francis deserves to finally get a beating for the nonsense he always did!

Francis knew that at this rate, Mark would break his wrist in front of the whole school! The pressure Mark was applying just kept increasing and it didn't look like Mark had any intentions of stopping at all! That would be too embarrassing! Who the fuck does Mark think he is!? Does he really think there would be no consequences if he goes too far!? Francis will make sure Mark never knows peace in this city again!

Francis immediately prepared himself to strike back at Mark!

"What the hell is that!? The sky is turning black!"

Someone suddenly shouted from in front of the window, and everyone turned towards it in shock to see what he was pointing at! The sky above the city was turning dark, and there was lightning striking across the horizon as a great dust cloud rose from near the docks! There was no need for them to know exactly what was happening over there; everyone could immediately tell that they were witnessing a Superhuman battle happening right before their eyes!

"We need to get out of here!"

"Run! Run away right now!"

"The bunkers! The teachers said we should get to the bunkers!"

"Wait! I left my mePhone in class! I need to get it"

"Just leave it behind! It isn't more important than your life!'

"Yes, it is! That's the gold-plated mePhone 22! You can't buy it even if you sell your kidney!"

The people in the cafeteria were shouting like this as they scrambled out of the hall! They did not waste any time as they realized the gravity of the situation, and all of them gradually began to run away! They knew that even though they were very far away from the battle, there was a chance that it could get close to them and reach the school! They have lived in this world with the dangers of Anima and the superhumans for too long for them not to understand how serious things were!

[Warning! Warning! This is a general broadcast to all citizens. There is a battle ongoing in your vicinity, and all citizens are advised to find shelter or evacuate from the area. This is not a drill! All citizens are advised to find shelter or evacuate from the vicinity! The danger level is Calamity Class! This is not a drill!]

A loud broadcast echoed through the loudspeakers all over the city, and all the students in the cafeteria immediately started to pick up their pace as they ran out the door to try and get to the school bunker as quickly as possible! The city broadcast is only used whenever there is a monster that cannot be beaten immediately by a Superhuman, and all the citizens would be told to evacuate so that the superhumans can fight without worrying about their safety!

If this was only a simple Disaster class monster, then the city would not have sent out the warning because the superhumans would be able to deal with the monster without causing too much damage! The broadcast has never been used in the city before unless it was a drill, and this is the first time that a Calamity class would appear in City A! The mere fact that the broadcast was not a drill put fear and anxiety into the hearts of all the citizens!

All over city A, citizens were evacuating from their homes and they were either moving to safe houses or they were going towards the main road so they could leave the city completely!

Thankfully, the Nature Academy built a large bunker in the underground basement of the school a long time ago, and they educated all the students about how to evacuate into the bunker whenever there was an Anima attack! All the students immediately followed the teachers' instructions and began to move down to the bunker to hide! Some of them were calling their parents and friends, but there wasn't a single person who wanted to stay up there!

Ring! Ring! Ring!

Mark felt his phone ringing in his pocket, but he ignored it because he already knew who it was! It was definitely Pat who was calling him about the attack that they just announced!

"H-Hey, let go already! There's a fucking attack on the city! Do you want us to die!? If you want to die then go and die alone and leave me out of it! Let go!"

Francis shouted anxiously as he looked around and saw everybody running towards the bunker! Mark was still holding onto Francis' hand, and Francis was getting more worried that Mark would hold him here until the monster reaches this school! Mark was going to get them all killed!

"Forget this! You boys are always acting stupid!"

Esmeralda shouted this as she abandoned her food and ran out of the cafeteria with the other students. She had been waiting for Francis, but once she saw that Mark was refusing to let go, she just left! There is no way she would allow herself to die for their stupid dick-measuring contest!

Esmeralda was the whole reason why the conflict began in the first place, but she didn't care about that and she just abandoned Francis! Will Francis' money matter if he is dead? He needs to be more sensible!

Mark glared harder at Francis. He still wanted to break this bastard's hand, but he knew that there were more important things to do right now!

"M-Mark! Mark, let's go! We have to go down to the bunker before they close it!"

Arit quickly moved to Mark and grabbed his hand as she tried to drag him with her towards the bunker. Mark slowly let go of Francis and Francis rubbed his wrist in pain as he quickly followed the crowd of students. But Francis couldn't help himself from glaring at Mark one last time before leaving. This was not over!

Mark and Arit started moving down the hallway, and Mark knew that he couldn't go with Arit to the basement! His phone was still ringing, and there was no doubt that it was Pat who was calling him! There were hundreds of students boxing them in from all sides in the hallway, and Mark knew that he could use this to his advantage! The number of students was so large that Arit would never notice if he left her hand and allowed her to just keep going on her own!

Mark slowly used the force of the students around him and let go of Arit's hand! He allowed many students to move in front of him, and he slowly disappeared backward into the crowd as he began moving in the opposite direction from where Arit was moving!

Immediately after he left Arit's hand, Arit immediately noticed that there was no contact anymore, and she turned around in shock to try and find him! She glanced around the entire hallway and tried to make some of the students move out of the way so that she could find Mark, but there was no sign of him! A great amount of anxiety started to rise from inside Arit, and she was scared that she left Mark behind! She immediately wanted to go and find him, but the sheer number of students was preventing her from moving as they continued dragging her towards the basement by force!

"Mark! Where are you!? Mark! Has anybody seen Mark!?"

Arit continued to shout like this loudly, but her voice was drowned out by the shouts and murmurs from all the other students who were also looking for their friends! Arit felt tears come to her eyes as she didn't see Mark, and she didn't want to think that he somehow got into trouble somewhere! She was sure that he would keep going to the bunker! He has to be there!

Arit could only think in this way as she was slowly guided towards the bunker against her will!
