Ocean Master

As soon as Sebastian arrived inside the battlefield properly, he saw a great white shark which immediately brought a grinning smile to his shark face.

"Big bro, hunting?" Verni asked excitedly.

"Yeah, hunting!"

After replying, Sebastian took the lead as a big bro would. This time, he was back to his fighting style when he didn't have a magic organ yet and it left him feeling super excited.

[You have activated skill: Triple Reverse Swim.]

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

Taking these 2 basic skills as the anchor, he activated a myriad of skills in his body including the empowered tail fin, empowered dorsal fin, advanced electroreceptors, spike attack, battering ram, and of course, bite.

Immediately Sebastian arrived beside the closest ravaging Crocodile.

[You have activated skill: Crushing Bite!]

[You have activated skill: Shredding Bite!]

Crunch!

The first bite skill gave his teeth such crushing force that he bit through the extremely thick and spiked tail of the Crocodile in one bite, then the second gave him such shredding power that he started wreaking havoc inside it.

He learned this combo attack style after all his numerous battle encounters in this seamount, and it was frighteningly effective.

From those 2 bites, he dealt damage which was not too much compared to the health points of the Crocodile but another fact was that his vampire effect triggered which now took 2 HP each second for 20 seconds.

[You have been hit by an attack: Spike Defense Retaliation.]

As soon as Sebastian bit the Crocodile, it flinched slightly in pain as its spikes suddenly became sharper, digging into his flesh in retaliation.

Crunch!

With force derived from all the momentum that he gathered, Verni revealed a fearsome look on its face as its teeth dug into the thick flesh of the Crocodile from another part. 

The first time did not penetrate directly due to how thick it was, but the great white shark simply bit again rapidly while dragging for a few more times before he finally breached the enemy's defense.

Sebastian retreated slightly, then he gathered momentum with his battering ram skill before rushing back with force. He collided with the Crocodile's side, pushing a depression through as it growled in pain.

It fought a brave heroic battle for 45 seconds before it fell dead to the tyranny of the 2 sharks.

[You have jointly killed a mutated Mammoth Crocodile with your hunting partner- Level 19: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 32 Skill points and 10 Adaptation points.]

This was the difference between these Crocodiles and other monsters in this seamount. Despite pairing with his hunting partner, Sebastian spent almost a minute before he took it down.

In the whole Crocodile kingdom, there were less than 40 ȧduŀt Crocodiles but they formed such a terrifying force that could not be annihilated anytime soon.

With his hunting partner, they both rushed in and wreaked havoc.

20 minutes later, after his last bitter battle that stretched over 7 minutes where he even sustained some injuries, Sebastian finally took down their most fearsome Croc opponent.

[You have jointly killed a Purple tier mutated Mammoth Crocodile- Level 23: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 53 Skill points and 50 Adaptation points.]

[You have killed your first Purple tier creature: You have gained an additional 30 Adaptation points.]

[You have killed a Purple tier creature while still at the Orange tier: You have gained an additional 20 Skill points and 50 Adaptation points.]

[Congratulations! You have leveled up once.]

[New notification locked till user is out of battle.]

"Purple tier!" While Sebastian was happy about the level up, he was also stunned as this was his second opponent apart from the Goblin Shark that was at the purple tier.

Verni seemed to have also recognized the tier of the opponent they just killed as he shook in excitement and disbelief.

Sebastian also wanted to feel excited but he could not, his electroreceptors told him that he just attracted the attention of an even more terrifying Crocodile.

"Roar!" A loud roar of pain, anger and unwillingness reverberated through the water as an enormous Crocodile that was only slightly smaller than the alpha Croc emerged from a hole in the crater.

Seeing this Crocodile, memories flooded Sebastian's brain as he immediately recalled who it was. "Have they been keeping it as a trump card? The Mystery Pryer Croc…"

Boom!

Before Sebastian could even finish his recollection, he suffered an attack. Despite the current distance between them, just beside him, a thick sharp pillar of fire appeared which drilled a hole through his body from his abdomen.

[You have been hit by a Mystery Pryer specialty skill: Omnipresent Magic!]

[Magic Type: Fire.]

Almost at the same time that he felt the pain of being hit by the skill, Verni roared in pain as the same sharp pillar of fire drilled into his body, dealing even more damage.

[You have been hit by another Omnipresent Magic Type: Earth.]

"How many types of magic domains does it have?"

Sebastian cursed but cursing did nothing, the pillar of earth blocked his path from escaping while others materialized out of mid-water, forming different shapes to attack him.

As he suffered damage, Verni suffered worse despite covering himself with his magic shield as the great white shark started bleeding severely.

While still roaring angrily, the mystery pryer Crocodile attacked frenziedly. It didn't just attack Sebastian and Verni, it attacked the Draconic lizards also, killing 3 in just a few seconds with its almost unrestricted magic.

Fire, earth, water, wind, lightning, almost all the basic magic domains were being used by this Crocodile as it wreaked havoc through the ranks of the enemies.

Seeing this while noting that he was still taking damage, Sebastian hesitated as he looked at his system information.

[Current MP: 520/560.]

He originally wanted to wait till his mana points were full before returning to attack the alpha Croc with the Lizard Lord, but the appearance of this powerful Crocodile brought a complication.

As soon as another earth magic attack dug into Verni's body, making the bleeding shark roar in pain, Sebastian made his decision.

[You have activated skill: Magic Shield.]
