Chapter 71 - Exploration Continues.

"…"

For a moment there, Sebastian suspected that the system was taking a jab at the fact that he had 2 of those which left him blushing at the thought each time but he quickly forgot it.

The system already helped him so much that it was ok with him to let it talk senselessly at times, he didn't pay much attention to it.

He decided not to pay attention to it, but in his mind. "Damn! Those monsters are actually such an abomination!"

Putting that aside, he confirmed his guess that this catacomb was related to the Necromancy King from the basic profile information.

Despite all the risks involved, he was satisfied as he got another clue to one of his future opponents but he could not help but come back to the fact that his body was now aching in pain all over.

Though his decisive actions enabled him to swiftly kill the Abomination monster, it still dealt significant damage to him.

And the fact that he did not get to eat its meat and ȧssimilate its magic essence meant that his injuries could only recover normally, not that he was interested in such disgusting meat though.

"Wait, recovery, I have a damn skill for that".

Quickly coming to this discovery, he disparaged his intelligence for forgetting such basic information before he activated the skill.

[You have activated magic skill: Rejuvenation.]

Immediately, he felt his body being wrapped by his green magic glow. He felt his body become warm and cozy, he felt like he was in the embrace of his mom when he quickly snapped out of it.

Scrutinizing his body with his electroreceptors, he was surprised that all the injuries in his body were gone, and the pain too, only leaving a slight itch.

"Damn, this is magical".

While feeling happy, he started towing his huge body from the scene.

From the dimming sight of the green light ever illuminating the world before him, he easily deduced that this was night again in Oceania.

He already hunted and ate to his satisfaction, exploring deep into the seamount in the process and discovering the catacombs. To him, that was a nice achievement for one day.

He didn't fight it, he went to sleep.

[You have triggered Adaptation: Camouflage organ.]

Once again, he turned his skill color to blend with that of an enormous tree before falling asleep beside it.

Sebastian slept for a long time, even dreaming of himself returning to earth and he surprisingly brought a Death Dragon back with him.

With such a sea creature that could only exist in myths beside him, he gained reverence from his colleagues as they watched him with fervent gazes while he dissected the beast with a smile.

As soon as he cut through its abdomen completely, he froze as he saw what seemed like a smiley face emoji inside its belly.

Without warning, the Death Dragon's organ stood up and pissed all over his face. Then, the smiley face revealed teeth and started laughing loudly.

Gripped by horror, he staggered backward then the dream shattered.

…

"F*ck! Smiley face, leave me alone!"

Sebastian roared in fear as he quickly woke up from his sleep on hearing the sound. The dream was still visible in his head, making him feel like invisible smiley faces were around him, secretly laughing at him.

As he observed in fear while his eyes adapted to his surroundings, a weird expression clouded his face as he remembered what he had just done.

Due to his roar, the scratching sound suddenly paused and he could feel a pair of numb and scared eyes looking at his position.

[You have activated skill: Advanced Electroreceptors.]

Instinctively, he activated this skill, enabling him to see everything clearly.

With a casual sweeping observation of his surroundings, he knew that his spinal cord struck again and he was not in the previous location where he slept at.

Beside him stood a huge red boulder, and on this boulder stood 2 Giant Crabs. Both fellows were now as stiff as a Shrimp as they looked at the predator that was before them in fear.

"…"

Sebastian was speechless. "Is it a must that you guys present yourselves whenever I wake up and in need of food?"

They finally tried to escape but he reacted faster.

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

[You have activated skill: Shredding Bite.]

Crunch! Crunch!

Just 2 strong bites and he got his 2 easy kills.

[You have killed 2 mutated Giant Crab- Level 13 and Level 14: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 10 Adaptation points.]

Sebastian started his day in such an optimistic manner as he joyfully munched on the crispy shell and body of the 2 Crabs.

In just a few days since arriving at this region of the sea, he already knew his favorite prey. The Crabs were undoubtedly the crispiest, precisely the Yeti Crab but the Giant Crab was nice too.

"What a great arrangement of fate".

After feasting on the 2 fellows, he observed his surroundings out of habit with his electroreceptor skill to detect any danger. Detecting none, he finally started drafting his plan for the day.

His plan was not anything complicated, he was still focused on exploring the seamount thoroughly to understand his situation.

The only clause that he emphasized was avoiding the area surrounding the catacombs. In his map, he specially circled it for emphasis.

After he was done with his basic draft planning, he finally started swimming deeper into the seamount cautiously.

Due to the tense circumstances, after he transmigrated to this world, he did not know how much time he had spent here. 

And besides, he only recently started understanding the concept of day and night here so everything was still a little fuzzy to him.

Putting all that behind him, he continued his exploration while instinctively checking out for any prey.
