Ocean Master

Chapter 82 - Wanna Go Dissecting?



As Sebastian led his new little brother, Verni, through the seamount, the new information about Oceania and the strange mutation of the shark called Teeth kept on going through his mind.

Though the fact that he now needed double the number of levels to evolve deflated him a bit, he was still glad because a part of the fog covering how much he knew about this world was slowly being chipped away.

Due to his interactions with Verni, he confirmed that the shark didn\'t know that he was a Megalodon already and still saw him as a great white.

He didn\'t correct this misunderstanding though. For the past one month of loneliness, his psyche was already being affected negatively, meeting a blabbermouth like Verni was a relief.

The fact that he was now being addressed as Big bro made it all the more memorable and sweeter.

He still didn\'t tell Verni his level, that was just plain embarrassing. He didn\'t really know it before but know he understood the huge advantage that his system gave him since coming to this world.

He was a full 4 levels lower than Verni, but his power was so much stronger and more dangerous than his.

Another point that he deduced was that the numerous evolution options that were presented to him when he evolved the 2nd time were probably not to be shown at this point originally.

He guessed that his system influenced the decision.

Through his conversations with Verni, he already confirmed that the head of the great white family Old Mak was not a Megalodon despite already being at the Purple tier.

This said a lot about his special status and how lucky he was. Whenever he thought of luck, his mind went back to his luck points and he could only curse. 

"F*ck it! Who gives a damn about luck stat points?"

After consoling himself with that, his brain calmed down and he continued his analytic deductions.

Also, according to Verni, Teeth was a level 20 great white Shark attempting to evolve to the next tier before he failed miserably and mutated.

That fact alone meant a lot of things, and the fact that he still killed it despite this and all the op advantages that it got after mutating, he finally knew how powerful he really was.

This was a crazy fellow that even the whole shark family including Old Mak could not takedown, he felt a burst of pride enveloping his heart.

With that, he was able to calmly accept Verni calling him Big bro.

He knew that his Water Transmutation unique skill was the only reason why he was able to defeat the Goblin Shark. 

With his other skills alone, he would have only become easy prey for the frightening Shark. This realization only sprouted his desire for other unique skills.

"I need to work hard". He motivated himself.

For his enormous size compared to the 8 meters long Verni, he guessed that this was also another perk of evolving to become a Megalodon faster than others.

Despite this, the fact that he was now as long as a bus still left him gapping in shock anytime he thought about it.

Also, now he had another goal. If his plan to kill the Alpha Crocodile was successful, his next goal was to go back to the family cave with Verni.

Even if his soul was innately a human and they were not exactly related, his current body meant that he had some affinity towards them. 

As a human, though a crazy anatomist, he knew the power brought by the warmth of family and he did not want to miss it in this life.

Because of the previous battle, his mana points were depleted completely and it was slowly recovering now. Despite this, he could hunt without mana.

He turned to Verni. "Wanna go dissecting?"

"…"

Sebastian facepalmed. "I mean hunting".

"Oh, yes, Big bro! Hunt! Hunt!"

Sebastian grinned, revealing his row of frightening teeth. "Then, follow me".

His electroreceptors were already locked into a Giant Crab which was the reason why the suggestion came in the first place.

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

[You have activated skill: Crushing Bite!]

He rapidly closed the distance before the fellow could react, then he clamped down hard with his teeth at its shell.

Crunch! Crunch!

Verni caught up to him, and it delivered the other bite. Both of them pulled at the same time, then the Crab was dissected into parts.

[Potential Hunting Partner has been detected: Does host want to bind with a hunting partner?]

"Woah! That\'s possible too?" Sebastian was surprised but he did not waste any time. "Yes".

[Affirmative!]

[Host has gotten a Hunting Partner: Verni, the Great White Shark!]

[You have jointly killed a Giant Crab with your hunting partner- Level 13: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 5 Adaptation points.]

"It still gives the same points, nice!"

Sebastian generously let his partner feast on the food. As he watched Verni feasting, a plan slowly formed in his mind. 

"Perhaps, with a partner, my Crocodile plan will be easier and more successful". He felt excited.

Not only that, he recalled a certain hole that was dug into a cave in the seamount that he encountered during his one-month exploration which was a secret lair of a clan of Giant Crabs.

He didn\'t attack it then because he was too lazy to do it as such a large number of Giant Crabs were not trivial opponents, and he guessed that he couldn\'t conquer it without using his Water Transmutation unique skill.

Right now, he was confident that with a powerful and versatile helper like Verni, he could do it easily. 

Verni seemed weak only because it fought against the frighteningly powerful Goblin Shark. As a level 17 great white Shark, it was a powerhouse of its own right in this seamount.   

In less than a minute, Verni finished the food and turned to face its Big bro excitedly with anticipation on its face. 

Feeling its gaze, Sebastian grinned again which was something he still wasn\'t used to as his sharp row of teeth were revealed fearsomely.

"Follow me".

"Yes, Big bro!"

Activating his triple reverse swim skill, Sebastian turned around and started navigating his way through the seamount with only one direction in mind.

In the journey, they encountered other prey which they didn\'t hesitate to feed on- a group of mutated Sea Lions, 3 Giant Crabs, and a Poison Worm.

About 8 minutes later, they got to their destination- the entrance to the cave lair of the Giant Crabs.

An excited glint flashed through Sebastian\'s eyes.
