Strongest Superhuman System

Chapter 121: First Test



If she wanted to share a room, then she should just say so. She doesn't need to be so shy about it, but Mark also liked that shy side of hers a lot. It made it very fun to tease her until she was redder than a tomato!

Mark put his hands in his pocket and followed after his two girls. He didn't mind if Arit chose her own room or if she wanted to pick a separate room from them to stay together. The two of them were always going to end up in the same bed after all, so it didn't matter to him.

[User has 12 hours left before the gift [Key To the Underworld] is forfeited. Does the user wish to activate the gift?]

[The User has successfully activated the gift. The user will be transported into the new domain.]

"Hey, newbie! What the hell are you doing!? Get ready!"

Mark's eyes opened slowly, and he found himself standing in a large cavern that was dimly lit by torches lining the walls. The torches were all burning black flames instead of the regular yellow flames, and Mark furrowed his brow in confusion as he looked around him.

The person who spoke to Mark was a woman with short black hair and only one eye. Her other eye had a long scar running over it, giving her a rough and dangerous look. But they weren't the only people in the cavern.

There were more than ten people around, and they were all fidgeting with weapons in their hands or trying to get their nerves under control as they stared at a dark tunnel on one side of the cavern that seemed to be releasing an ominous aura.

Where the hell was he?

Mark remembered activating his system last night after falling asleep. When Arit and Talia finally chose rooms for themselves, Mark went to his room and used the gift that the system gave him, and the system announced that he would be transported to a new domain. Was this the domain of Thanatos? Who are these people? What am I supposed to be doing right now? Why the fuck am I chained?

Clink!

Mark looked down at his hands, and he was shocked to see that there was a long chain tied to both of his hands. The chains were not connected to anything, but they shackled both of Mark's hands together and only gave him enough room to widen them shoulder-width apart. That was annoying.

Mark immediately tried to break the chain using his super-strength, but he was shocked when he felt the chain resist his force before stopping him altogether! What the fuck!? What is this thing made from!?

"Newbie! I said get your head in the game! They're coming!"

The woman shouted at Mark again as she saw him trying to get the chain off, but Mark just shook his head as he tried to get the chain off again. It didn't work, and Mark growled deep in his chest as he looked toward the woman. He was not surprised to see that she also had chains on her hands. But she had a sword and shield that she held in front of her in a ready pose.

In fact, everyone in the cavern was outfitted in the same way. They were chained, but they also had a weapon held ready in front of them.

Mark turned to the woman.

"Who's coming!?"

"What!? What do you mean by who's coming!? How did you enter this dungeon without knowing anything!? Just get ready to fight! We won't get a chance to run, so we have to fight!"

Useless! That was the only thought that went through Mark's mind once he heard the woman's explanation. She did not tell him anything useful, and she just expected him to know something about this place. What sort of situation is this? Was I dropped in the middle of a dungeon raid? But if that is the case, then why are we chained?

And what kind of dungeon is this?

[Welcome to the first Trial: Thanatos' Playground]

[There are three tests that must be passed for the user to complete the trial. The user must pass these three tests and reach the dwelling place of Thanatos.]

[Trial Conditions]

-> The User possesses three lives.

-> At the end of each test, the user will be granted a save point where he can respawn in the event that he perishes during the next test.

-> All the user's skills will be deactivated during the tests, and the user may choose 1 skill per test that will be activated. After each test, the user may choose a new skill for the next test.

-> If the user loses all three lives, he will forfeit his life, and his soul will be devoured by Thanatos.

[Test 1: Charge of the Damned]

[The User has been dropped in the middle of an obscure part of the underworld along with a few damned souls for the first test. The test area is a dungeon located deep within the underbelly of a lost kingdom's prison. Prisoners are sent into the dungeons and saddled with the responsibility of reducing the number of monsters inside the dungeon as punishment for their crimes.

The user is one of those criminals. In order to successfully pass the test, the user must survive the horde for the next five minutes.]

[Test Conditions]

-> The user is not allowed to use all his skills during the fight.

-> The user must kill all the monsters before he can leave the test zone.

-> Do not disclose your identity or the truth behind this test to the other members of your prisoner crew.

[Number of Lives: III]

[The user has been granted a favor due to the incessant demands of his patron god, Sozin. Thanatos has agreed to allow the user to use one skill during each test. Please select the skill you wish to use.]

[Mana Circulation – D Rank]

[Taunting – F Rank]

[Blunt Force Trauma – D Rank]

[True Sight – D Rank]

Mark read through everything that the system just sent to him quickly and he raised a shocked brow at the absurdity of the trial! What the fuck do you mean I can't use my skills!? And just how difficult were these trials that Thanatos was even willing to give me three lives? Sozin told Mark that the other gods did not like him, so Mark knew that his trials would be difficult.

But the mere fact that someone who did not like him was willing to give him three lives sent a ton of alarms ringing in Mark's head. These trials will be no joke.
