Ocean Master

Blink!

A few hours later, Sebastian's eyes regained their focus once again. Immediately after he focused, he felt the difference.

The feeling of dizziness like he was in a washing machine was gone, the feeling of exhaustion like he just ran a marathon was gone, and the feeling of weakness like he received 20 consecutive doses of the covid- 19 were gone too.

He knew it, Sebastian the great white shark was back.

[You have activated skill: Advanced Electroreceptors.]

Through his electroreceptors, he immediately surveyed the surroundings. He was still in the tunnel where he suffered the ambush, and the Devouring Cobra's remaining meat was still there.

What left him depressed was the fact that his injuries were still there though they already healed a bit. He could still feel the pain coming from all over his body, which was irritating.

[You have recovered 42% of your health points: Devour the remaining meat of the Devouring Cobra to regain more health points.]

[Devour the remaining magic essence of the Devouring Cobra to recover from your injuries.]

As soon as the system revealed this, Sebastian saw something that surprised him. 3 small eels were currently hovering around the meat of the Devouring Cobra, still in the dilemma of if they should eat or not.

"My food!"

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

[You have activated skill: Shredding Bite.]

[You have dealt -27 damage to your prey.]

[You have killed a grey Eel- Level 7: You have gained Experience.]

Seeing the shark which they thought was dead suddenly erupt to feast on their friend, the remaining 2 eels were spooked.

Without even thinking, they turned around and rapidly started swimming back in the direction of their city like their life depended on it.

Sebastian did not pursue the 2 eels that escaped, he had too many things in his head to spare attention to such prey. With quick movements of his maws, his sharp teeth munched on the eel and he soon finished eating it.

He did not stop after this though, he followed the system's guidance and immediately started feasting on the meat of the Devouring Cobra.

Unlike the eel, he couldn't finish the Cobra's meat immediately. He had to munch repeatedly for a few dozen times. A few minutes later, he finally finished the remaining meat left by the dead Cobra.

After he finished eating, he didn't rush to leave immediately.

He was already a sizeable distance away from the city of eels, now he wanted to find some rest while analyzing everything that transpired in his life for the past few hours to a day.

The fact that he almost just died still felt like a movie to him.

After resting against the walls of the tunnel, he finally started observing the numerous injuries that he sustained from his consecutive battles.

At this moment, almost all the injuries that he sustained in his battle with the eels of the city of eels already healed. The only one still there was the one inflicted by the giant bolt of lightning.

Thinking of that 15-meter-long eel still left him shuddering in fear. If not for his fast reactions to materialize the magic bow and arrow, he had no doubts that the eels would have probably feasted on his flesh.

During his escape from the city, he still felt like there were eels even stronger than the 15-meter-long eel. Pairing this with the fact that the 10-meter-long eels did not attack him, he came to a conjecture.

Perhaps, the city of eels already had a clash with a shark family before, and they no longer wanted to antagonize one, that was why the heavy hitters did not emerge to finish him up.

Though this was just his conjecture, he felt that he was correct.

One thing that he learned from his encounter with the eels was that it was better to live as a family. As a family, life was much easier here in Oceania.

The only problem was that he had no idea where they were.

"I still can't believe that my parents heartlessly left me to fend for myself".

Consoling himself, he finally diverted his attention to his battle with the Devouring Cobra.

The thought alone left all his muscles and nerves tense, his battle with the Devouring Cobra was undoubtedly his closest to death since he transmigrated into this world.

The Devouring Cobra was a prime example of the difference between species of Oceania creatures that Leroy emphasized to him.

Like him, this Cobra was an anomaly. Despite being just level 15, it exerted such power against him like he's not felt from any other opponent since he started his conquest for survival in this world.

At that moment in time, he really thought that he was dying. The timely intervention of the Adrenaline Surge and Blood Vampire effects were what saved his sorry ȧss.

The poison and negative effects fluids secreted by the Cobra after it started swallowing him alone were enough to place it at the very top of the food chain.

This time, his system was to take all the credits for his survival. Once again, he felt how useful the system was since his reincarnation.

"I'm sorry, I promise not to say filthy things to you again".

Despite how close he was to death at that moment, and the pain, he still felt happy now as his gains completely offset the pains that he had to go through.

Not only was he Level 10 now, but unlocking the active ability of the Vampire Teeth adaptation was his best gain from the battle.

With the Blood Vampire effect, he now had another trump card to complement his Water Transmutation unique skill.

Another thing was that he seemed to have learned another rule governing this magical world of Oceania. The system told him to devour the magic essence of the Cobra to recover, and this was evidently tied to its meat.

Before, he has always been puzzled about how his injuries healed, but the knowledge of the magic essence seemed to have answered him.

He guessed that every creature in Oceania had this magic essence, and eating them enables you to ȧssimilate this essence. He also guessed that experience points were gotten from the prey's magic essence after killing it.

Through his electroreceptors, he could currently see the flesh under his injuries squirming slightly as they slowly healed.

Once again, he learned another rule governing Oceania.
