Ocean Master

"Tungsten, Verni". Sebastian called back at the 2 Great White Sharks.

Sebastian was pretty excited about knowing that 2 of his companions were still here with him, but he felt even more excited on noticing the difference that was currently being displayed in the 2 sharks.

Perhaps, this was another boon to breaking through to the purple tier, perhaps it was another benefit of his Mana Lord evolution route, but Sebastian already discovered that his sensitivity to mana and other phenomenon increased a lot after his evolution.

This was how he was able to easily discover the changes in the 2 sharks.

For the younger shark, Sebastian discovered a strange rainbow-colored light that was moving through Verni's bloodstream. For some strange reason, he resonated with this rainbow-colored light.

As for Tungsten, Sebastian could not mistake it, with the massive amount of mana activity that was going on inside the complicated body of this Great White Shark, Tungsten was now a purple tier predator.

Sebastian was surprised and excited. It seems that he was not the only one who benefited from this Sea King inheritance and it made him happy.

This was one of the reasons why he solicited Old Mak's help. Apart from trying to get external help to increase his chances of fulfilling his goal, he also sincerely wanted to help the shark clan.

These 2 were evidence that his plan did not fail.

As the 3 enormous sharks exchanged pleasantries, the other predators and the Atlantian soldier were on their toes as they carefully observed this newcomer.

Tungsten may be bigger than Sebastian currently, but there was something about this new shark that rang alarm bells in the other predators' heads.

Sebastian's absurd muscular physique for a Megalodon that made him now look a bit like Strong, his powerful inevitable jaws that seemed capable of crushing anything, and a lot more revealed that this newcomer was a powerhouse.

Apart from Tungsten and Verni, among the other survivors, only Sergeant Lopez knew the identity of this enormous shark.

This female Sergeant's heart chilled. "It survived?"

Sebastian merely surviving would not have elicited such a dreadful reaction from her, this Sergeant's sensitivity and control over origin magic ensured that she could detect the powerful fluctuations currently emanating from the Megalodon.

The Megalodon was now a purple tier predator, and not only that, a Mana Lord! The implications of these 2 stacked together were terrifyingly mighty!

This Sergeant's brain whirled with superhuman speed. "The ultimate inheritance has already been gotten, don't tell me this Megalodon got it?!"

The implications of all these thoughts were so much that this Sergeant almost exploded, but her military training showed at this moment as she cleverly directed as little observation and animosity to the Megalodon as possible.

Sebastian played along; he also didn't want to spook this Atlantian soldier. Until he knew the situation of the outside seamount, he refrained from acting.

Silently, he swam beside his 2 buddies. He didn't exchange any communication with them apart from the reunion greeting, this could be done later, now was the time to escape.

Tungsten also felt the change in Sebastian, he was happy for him but he also kept his emotions in check as the teleportation portal finally showed a change.

There was indeed a specific requirement to fulfill to open it, all the survivors needed to gather before the entrance for it to open up.

Wom!

The spatial disturbance around the portal suddenly increased in intensity.

Sebastian and the others didn't even need to move, the portal gathered energy for a few seconds before expanding outwards to engulf them. In a few seconds, the light of the teleportation portal covered them all.

They all braced themselves for what was to come, then they disappeared.

Warp!

…

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The flames of a raging war continued burning fiercely!

The Tripartite Hegemonic balance that was formed by the 3 hegemonic powers in this battlefield was only able to maintain their status quo for about an hour before they became impatient.

This was a war Afterall, it was not a game. No matter how hard they tried to contain it, it could never be fully controlled.

Sebastian and the other predators were evolving which were only known by a few Mystery Pryer predators, none of the 3 hegemons knew the truth and they lost their patience after waiting just an hour.

There was no way that a predator could succeed in evolving to the purple tier in just an hour, this was where the problem started from.

Since the ultimate inheritor of the inheritance did not come out, it could only mean that the ultimate inheritor already escaped.

Once they came to this realization, the Atlantian army went berserk!

The mission to hunt down the Megalodon and get both the Water Transmutation unique skill and the Doppelganger and Invisibility unique king was a priority, no other thing took precedence over it to the Atlantian soldiers.

Suddenly learning that despite all the efforts that they put into it, their opponent was still able to escape soured the moods of the soldiers to no end as they all became extremely angry berserkers.

They were the ones who started the real war on this battlefield.

Pushed to the wall, Commander T.Y concluded that the chessboard was not cleanly flipped over enough, so he decided to flip it over once more.

"All-out Attack!"

As soon as this order was given, the berserk Atlantian soldiers jumped at the mutated beasts that were before them like a pack of hungry wolves.

A battle of terrifying magnitudes started. The Rogue Snake Overlord did not cower from the challenge, neither did the turtle cultist Ancestor Horamon and his subordinates nor did the other minor forces who had no choice but to fight.

All pretenses were thrown to the side as an all-out attack began. Lives started being reaped away from the battlefield at a much higher frequency than before.

As for the one who started this mad war, Commander T.Y did not impulsively give the order. While the battle started raging like wildfire spreading in harmattan, this Atlantian Commander gave other targeted commands.

Under his command, a large portion of the still workable warships of the present Atlantian Division fleets was mobilized towards different directions as they were all tasked to search for the escaped inheritor.

All these warships had technological gadgets installed in them that could pin down the signal released by unique skills temporarily.

These were the trump cards to track the inheritor down.

Apart from doing this, Commander T.Y also sent the new status to the higher-ups. General Jax Tim and General Saber, leader of Mega Fleets got the news in no time as an immediate change was implemented.

At the border of the ocean volcano region, the large Atlantian Mega Fleets got new orders as they all mobilized while still withstanding the attack of their aggressors as they formed an impenetrable blockade surrounding the cliff.

This eventually locked every escape path of this thief down; nobody was allowed to steal their priority target right before their eyes.

This movement by the Atlantian Mega Fleets did not leave the sight of their enemies, they were as attentive as a hawk. This mobilization alone gave a lot of hints that enabled the other variant human races to understand the situation, they did not hesitate to take advantage of it.

Boom! Boom!

The already raging war intensified in pace and lethality again.

The stress on the circular cliff walls that were surrounding the ocean volcano increased, it became increasingly certain that the ocean volcano would not survive the aftermath of this war.

This was at the border, the battle in the seamount already reached a climax. Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid and his helpers fought an admirable battle, but achieving a decisive victory against their bestial counterparts was impossible.

They could disdain the 2 red tier predators all they liked, but this did not remove anything from the terrifying strength of these moving disasters.

The Rogue Snake Overlord and the cultist Ancestor Horamon suffered a lot of injuries, but they inflicted even more on their opponents and their gains from this endeavor were so much already that they felt bloated.

Not only did the hegemons suffer, but the minor forces also suffered even more. Forces like Old Mak and his clan members were like a speed boat, against a terrible storm, they had no choice but to follow the direction of the storm.

They were engulfed completely without any meaningful struggle.

The blood in this enormous battlefield thickened, the mutilated flesh also increased by a margin, the smell of disaster never left the battlefield.

In this chaotic moment, this was when a change happened.

Warp!

Suddenly, from the entrance of the inheritance ground that most of the battling opponents already discarded, a bright light shone as 10 figures were pushed out of the teleportation portal.

The battle did not stop, but attention moved towards this direction like radar lights pinpointing an enemy assassin down.

As soon as Sebastian and the others appeared, they saw the chaotic battle. The thick smell of blood, the red background, the constant cries of death, and a lot of other things quickly summarized the situation outside here to them.

Perhaps, they would have had a chance to quietly blend into the battlefield but this chance was botched due to the presence of a certain predator.

{Target Found!}

All of a sudden, all the warships of the Atlantian army, the army of the Toad alliance, and the army of the Turtle Confraternity turned their searchlights as they all concentrated on a single predator.

This single predator was…, Sebastian!
