Strongest Superhuman System

"Whatever happens, I know everything will turn out alright."

Mark nodded once the man said this. As far as the man understood how dangerous the situation was, then there was no need to say anything more. Mark could tell that the man was not a superhuman. He was just a regular human that Pat employed, but he was still willing to go to the island just because Pat gave him enough money!

Mark has never been the sort of person to think that money was the answer to every problem, but it sure as hell fixes a lot of problems!

"Do you mind if I come along? I wouldn't want to be in that other ride with all the sweaty men pushing against me. You have so much space in there, so I'm sure you wouldn't mind, right?"

Mark turned to see Fiona walking up to him and saying this. Fiona had changed out from her long gown and she now wore jeans and a spaghetti strap top that made her breasts look even larger than before! Fiona's alluring presence was making all the men look at her, but she didn't care as she only had eyes for Mark right now.

Mark already had a 'no' on the tip of his tongue because he didn't feel like riding with her. She would just annoy him throughout the trip, but someone else spoke up from behind before Mark could say anything.

James called Fiona back to the military-grade helicopter with an annoyed shout!

"Fiona! Did you already forget the plan!? Get back here so we can leave! We need you on the island!"

James shouted this and Fiona just frowned as she thought she could leave before James saw her! The plan that they came up with was something that they needed her powers for and if she wasn't there, then the plan would definitely fail!

And since Mark's helicopter was slower than the military-grade helicopter, they would arrive on the island a few minutes before Mark so she had to be with James and the others so the plan would work.

Fiona asked Mark if he really didn't want a ride. It would be better to take a ride from them since they would arrive earlier, but Mark just shook his head and moved to board his helicopter.

"I'm sure they'll use that as another excuse to try and recruit me if I went with the NSA helicopter. I'll see you on the island, Fiona. Try not to die over there."

Fiona only smiled slightly as Mark said this and a giddy feeling filled her heart at the realization that this wasn't just one of her minions telling her to be careful! Mark was immune to her powers and yet he cared about her! Fiona has always been surrounded by people who loved her too much over the past four years!

Even when she didn't have any powers, she was beautiful enough that people would still want to be close to her just for her beauty! But Mark was different! He just cared about her and he didn't have that look that showed he wanted something more. It felt genuine coming from him.

"Careful there, Mark~. If I didn't know any better, I would think you were in love with me already! What do you think hmm? Why don't you call me big sister just this once~?"

[[Potential Danger] has been neutralized]

Mark glared at Fiona as he noticed that she tried using her power on him once again and Fiona just giggled and turned with a wave.

"Sorry~! Sorry~! I thought I'd see if my charm would make you let me in~ Don't look at me like that, it hurts! I won't do it again, little brother. I promise~."

Fiona felt that giddy sensation in her heart again as her skill failed to work on Mark, and she didn't understand what it was. Why was she getting happy that her skill was not working on Mark? She should be angry that she couldn't trap him in her ability, but for some reason, she couldn't stop smiling!

Mark just scoffed before smiling at her antics! Mark was glad that she was still able to joke like this because that meant she didn't feel any nervousness. Mark just hoped she would be fine on the island since no one really knew how dangerous that place would be! Mark spoke to the driver and told him to get going and the helicopter took off from the building and started to make its way to the island!

Fiona went over to the military helicopter when she saw that everyone else had already boarded, and they also took off as the helicopter released intense wind pressure and maneuvered towards the island!

…

On the island, Arit was sitting against the wall in the underground tunnel. Her eyes were bloodshot because she had been crying since she came here, but she was no longer crying because she was too tired to continue! Her clothes were no longer wet, and she was glad, but she still felt feverish her head was muddy, and she could feel that her face was hot, so she was sure that she had a fever.

Arit looked around the underground tunnel with some curiosity in her eyes as she wondered where in the world she was.

She remembered how the fish-headed anima took her from the school and brought her over the sea, but she passed out halfway through the journey, and she didn't remember what direction she went in! If she knew the direction, then she could have used that to tell where she was since she was good at geography!

Arit glared up at the many animas walking down the tunnel, and she only had one thought in her head!

Why were none of the anima hurting her?

Arit had been here for more than four hours, but in all that time, there hasn't been a single incident where an Anima tried to hurt her or even came close to her! Arit was so shocked by this that she didn't even look terrified anymore, and she was only staring at all the passing Anima curiously as none of them even bothered to give her a second glance!

The way they move and the things that they were carrying in the cave reminded Arit of what an ant colony looked like! It felt like she was watching worked ants carrying food inside for their queen!

Arit didn't know it, but she was right! This entire island was a colony that sprang up two years ago when an ant anima began to cultivate his queen. He recruited many anima and trained all of them to bring food for his queen, and he was using them as the worker ants in his colony!

Two years ago something like this would not have been possible, but just like humans evolve, the anima were also evolving, and rather than just fighting mindlessly, they were now capable of thought and they could do more than just killing!

Screech!

Arit felt her blood run cold as a screech rang out through the entire tunnel, and she saw all the anima moving through the tunnels stop in their tracks immediately.
