Creak!
As Sebastian chuckled, he was startled as he heard this sound that woke him up again. He intended to raise his body and look, but he became stuck. This was when he noticed another fact of his evolution that he almost missed.
His eyes widened. “I ballooned in size!”
Now, even trying to shake his tail fin was a problem. His body was now so big that the walls of the hole were practically compressing his skin.
Seeing this, he didn’t know if he should cry or laugh. Despite his feelings, he was still amazed by his current size.
From his previous size of 4 meters, he was now towering at a massive unbelievable size of about 12 meters.
“What…?”
He felt like taking a snap and putting it on his Instagram page immediately but once again he remembered that this was f*cking Oceania.
Yeah, Instagram and other social media platforms were some of the few things that he missed about his previous world.
Despite the blood, gore, and constant battles here, everything still clicked with his first love, which was to dissect everything. For that, he could endure every gore that followed.
It’s not like he was afraid of horror movies Afterall.
Putting all these errant thoughts behind him, he came back to the matter of his size. Seeing himself like this felt unbelievable to him, but he could accept it, knowing the fact that he already encountered eels that were over 15 meters long.
For those guys, he could only take his cap off for them and praise them in Chinese.
He was not in a hurry to leave so he took his time to admire his newfound strength. Compared to his previous self, he felt like a Lion that was packed with power, just waiting for the signal to pounce on prey.
“Not bad”. He praised.
After such an evolution, he was filled with energy but he felt he should sleep a bit to alleviate any stress that may follow.
After all, he was not like other sharks. He knew what stress was capable of.
As his eyes were slowly losing focus, they snapped open again as he heard a growling sound reverberating around the dark red hole. Without even thinking, he knew what it was.
[As a shark, most especially as a Megalodon, you need food to survive in Oceania. Without abundant food to sustain yourself, your chances of easily dying to hunger are greater than dying to a predator.]
“Dammit! I know!”
While grumbling in his mind, he got prepared to go hunt for prey with the motivation that he would get to try out his new skills.
Thud!
He was once again startled when he heard this sound above him.
He kept quiet and listened, he heard the thudding sound coming from above continue. He was pleasantly surprised.
“Is prey already waiting for me? That’s good”.
Without hesitation, he ignored the hot heat that was still affecting him before hovering up. Without any trouble, he broke through all the rocks that he painstakingly set up the previous time with his sheer power.
As soon as Sebastian bulldozed his way out of the hole, he felt a pair of shocked eyes land on him.
Looking over, he was stunned as he saw 3 Giant Shrimps looking at him in shock. He was a little confused at first but he immediately understood.
“These guys are the relatives of the Giant Shrimp that I killed here”.
Seeing the giant shark that towered above them despite their equally giant size for a Shrimp, the 3 Shrimps didn’t dare hesitate as they turned to escape.
Sebastian reacted instinctively and pounced on the food.
[You have activated skill: Shredding Bite.]
He didn’t even need to add the dash skill to it this time. Just one movement of his body brought him close to the nearest Shrimp as he immediately bit down.
Crunch!
He felt the crispy sensation of biting down on delicious prey again. In seconds, he gorged the food down his throat before pouncing at the other Shrimp.
This fellow was even more pathetic as it died from a snapping bite to the head. The last was able to try retaliating a bit, but all its efforts were naught.
In less than a second, Sebastian also gorged its delicious meat.
[You have killed a Volcano Shrimp- Level 10: You have gained Experience.]
[You have gained 2 Adaptation points.]
[You have killed a Volcano Shrimp- Level 13: You have gained Experience.]
[You have gained 1 Skill point and 5 Adaptation points.]
[You have killed…]
While grumbling about how he gained only 1 skill point from 3 skills, he decided to swim into the deeper parts of this seamount to hunt for prey.
Despite his evolution, he did not dare look at himself as the overlord of this volcano world already. For an enormous world of fire like this, there was definitely no lack of top-tier predators.
Despite all this, he felt anticipation for the probable encounters.
Without wasting any more time, he cautiously started swimming deeper inside the enormous seamount.
…
At a certain location, hundreds of kilometers deep inside the volcano.
The ward-robe-like cliff walls of the volcano here were the same as the top, the difference was that only a handful of sea creatures were qualified to stay here where the volcano’s heat was extremely concentrated.
At this moment, in one of the big holes inside the walls laid a gigantic lizard with the head of a Dragon and the tail of a snake.
It was originally in a deep slumber, but its red eyes that burned with fire suddenly snapped open in the eternal redness.
Its eyes that looked like they could see through time and season looked up, penetrating through all the obstacles of boiling rocks obstructing its path.
It tried to focus its eyes and see what it was looking for but its penetrating vision skill was being blocked by a strange power.
“The 1st Sea King!”
As it muttered this, its body subconsciously tensed up.
