Mark was stunned once he saw the system message. Eighty percent of the Superhumans were already dead!? It hasn't even been five minutes since they landed! How could they already be dead? Mark knew that they did a lot of research into the monsters here and they even made a plan about how to attack the monsters to prevent too many casualties! So, how in the world were most of them already dead!?

Doesn't that mean that all the research they did was meaningless since the monsters were far stronger than they anticipated? Mark didn't want to be the sort of person who says I told you so, but he definitely told them that something like this was a possibility.

"Run! Run away from there! The monsters have gone mad!"

"They're coming! Run!"

Squelch!

"Wait! Don't leave me behind! Wait!"

Roar!!

Some Superhumans were running out from inside the forest as the monsters charged through the trees while heading toward Mark! The Superhumans had been following the plan, but they didn't expect the sudden change in the monsters' movement and they were caught completely unaware as the monsters turned around and began to attack them instead of following after Fiona!

The Anima had already killed a lot of the Superhumans and the remaining Superhumans were mainly A ranks who were able to use their skills to barely hold the monsters back. They killed some of the low-level Disaster Classes but there was nothing they could do against the high-level Disaster Classes and the other low-level Calamity Classes that were chasing them!

They could only run and hope to reach the helicopter to escape!

Mark lept over the Anima that attacked him from underground. He grabbed it by its arms and slammed his heel into its stomach! Mark then pulled the arms until he detached them from its body and the Anima stopped moving!

Mark had grown much stronger since he fought against that Calamity Class, so the low-level and medium-level disaster class monsters were not even a challenge to him! The only thing that would prove a challenge was the low-level and high-level Calamity classes!

Mark ducked under a monster that tried to skewer him. He grabbed the monster by the arm and ripped its arm away from its body before using the arm to slap the monster into the ground and crush it under his feet.

Squelch!

Mark glanced at all the monsters around him as he threw the arm aside. Mark counted twenty low-level disaster class anima, and five high-level disaster class There were five monsters still attacking the Superhumans at the side and Mark guessed that those were the remaining five high-level disaster classes. But where was the high-level calamity class?

Mark would immediately be able to sense if that calamity class was here, but Mark could not sense it at all. Was it in another part of the forest? Mark had to kill that calamity class as well if he was going to complete this mission.

The system was giving some very good rewards for killing the monsters and Mark could no longer see monsters in front of him! All he saw were stat points that would help him grow stronger! The system also said that there were hidden rewards and Mark felt his motivation double as he wanted to get those rewards no matter what! Mark didn't even wait for the monsters to attack him!

He charged straight for them!

The monsters were stunned for a moment as they saw the human attack, but they didn't stay shocked for long as they also charged! Mark caught the fastest Anima by the neck and used that one as a battering ram as he charged straight through the Anima that were trying to surround him! The best strategy for dealing with these monsters was to not fight them in the open!

Mark needed to draw them toward the forest so that he could use the trees as a means to slow them down and give him more time to deal with them one-on-one! Mark would be overwhelmed if he fought against the monsters together, but when they were on their own, they didn't stand a chance!

Woosh!

A monkey-based Anima suddenly charged at Mark faster than the others and dragged him deeper into the forest by force! The Anima was a low-level Calamity class, so it had a lot more power than the others! Mark grabbed the monkey's tail and threw it off him, but the monkey only flipped around and latched onto a tree!

"OOHH! OOHH! AAHH! AHH!!"

Many other monkey-based Anima joined the monkey Anima as they all surrounded Mark. Mark could tell that the other monkeys were only low-level and high-level Disaster classes, unlike the low-level Calamity Class.

The monkey shouted a battle cry as they charged for Mark and Mark used one of the trees as a barricade to block them from swarming him, but the monkey was able to easily break through the tree with its punch and Mark had to cross his arms to block the hit!

Slam!

The Anima grabbed Mark and wanted to throw him back, but Mark sent mana to his legs as he grabbed the monster by its arm and spun himself around to deliver an axe kick that caved the monster's head in! The monster was only a low-level disaster class, so the kick was enough to tear a hole through its head and send it to the afterlife!

Roar!!

Mark dodged many other attacks from the anima. He was using the trees expertly to jump around the forest as he dodged, but Mark was still cautious because of the low-level Calamity class monkey that was right on his tail. The Calamity Class monkey was not attacking and it looked like it was waiting for the right moment for Mark to let down his guard so that it would attack!

Mark stopped running and charged for one of the high-level Disaster Class Anima in front of him and he sent a punch straight through the Anima's stomach!

[Critical Hit!!]

Boom!!

The Anima was unable to withstand the full force of the strike and it was obliterated along with a long line of trees in the forest!

Woosh!

The punch literally carved a path through the forest and gave Mark some room as the other monsters were immediately cautious of attacking! Mark ran for the next monster immediately and he sent a massive amount of power to his knee as he grabbed the monster by its head and brought his knee up to strike the monster in the face!

Slam!!

The monster's face caved in and Mark grinned as he felt the bone in the monster's face break under the force of his kick!
