The die was cast!
As soon as Torpedum attacked, the stamp that destroyed Sebastian's hopes of escaping was unleashed. And as soon as Lieutenant Lookman attacked, the 2-fold defense erected by Elder Marble and Elder Shine was also destroyed.
This meant that Sebastian and his cadre of Great White Sharks were exposed to outside aggression which was not too far away at this moment.
With the Atlantians intervening, Torpedum was able to safeguard his life as this enormous Great White Shark made use of the advantages of his space domain magic to escape Sebastian's area of influence.
The army of variant human races that was now descending in the direction of the seamount after expanding their battle zone was still a distance away, but Atlantis still had the qualifications to fight this battle.
The Atlantian military force that was currently on hand had 2 war champions.
The Annihilation Division Fleet had a champion in the form of Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid, a Silver Realm soldier whose enormous battle accumulation could temporarily propel his strength to the legendary Gold Realm.
The 2nd Atlantian champion on this battlefield was Lieutenant Colonel James. This soldier was the main war champion of the Annihilator warship that was deployed for this mission, his authority was only below that of Commander T.Y.
Together, these 2 war champions formed the tip of the arrow force that was now all out for the head of this Megalodon turned Sea King.
Commander T.Y already narrated his deductions to these 2 soldiers, so they knew what they were up against which made them all the more serious.
With his high-grade magic Trident, Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid was a frightening melee powerhouse. As for Lieutenant Colonel James, this Atlantian soldier was a ranged beast with his custom multipurpose Rifle.
Lieutenant Colonel James was the one who shot the plasma beam that saved Torpedum's life. This soldier's Rifle laid justice to the term multipurpose, it could shoot laser beams, positron beams, plasma beams, and a lot of other armaments.
This was not its most frightening element though; its most frightening element was when this Rifle supercharged its different beam phases with magic power that this powerful Atlantian soldier harnessed.
In that state, each of the Rifle's beams was terrifying!
With these 2 champions working together, they formed the perfect alliance that was more than capable of suppressing this Megalodon even if it was a Sea King considering that its strength was restricted to the purple tier.
These 2 were not the only ones that went after Sebastian. Alongside them were the numerous warships including the advanced Elven warship, and also the 2 Red tier predators.
The logic of the Rogue Snake Overlord and the cultist turtle, Ancestor Horamon was to crack this tough nut first before worrying about the distribution of the ultimate prize later.
All the other mutated beasts were relegated to support roles. Some tried to escape, while some greedy fools among them also tried to join this hegemonic struggle. Perhaps, one of them may get lucky and get the prize.
All of a sudden, everywhere buzzed with activity as the whole army of Atlantians and variant humans seemed to have turned against them. Old Mak, his elders, his favorite Queen, his allies, and all his clan members all despaired.
Old Mak could feel anger and fear tangibly emanating from his 20-meter-long body as he saw a young shark that he watched growing from a tender age escaping after dooming his family members.
For some reason, he could see his younger self overlapping with Torpedum. This current situation looked too similar to when he abandoned his benefactor.
He felt regret, he felt a lot of emotions, he was short of words but he curbed all these since he knew that he needed to motivate his clan members to face the greatest challenge that had ever befallen his clan.
Before he could speak though, someone beat him to it.
"Today, no one can stop me!"
Seeing the traitor getting to escape from his grasp, Sebastian could see smokes of anger emanating from his head.
His anger knew no bounds and this fueled his desire for revenge!
Even against the overwhelming army of different species that was currently coming against him, Sebastian was not deterred. He was determined to exact his revenge even if this meant that he was dying today!
Sebastian was intelligent, he already deduced that if no miracle happened, his chances of emerging alive today were less than 1%.
This situation where his survival was no longer in his hands roused the most primal instincts in him. It also roused his desire for revenge more, he was determined to deal the killing blow to the traitor since he would eventually die too.
"Today, all shall die before I die!"
Boom! Boom!
[You have activated skill: Mega Magic Shield!]
Lieutenant Colonel James attacked and Sebastian defended, then he retaliated in the most furious manner possible.
[You have activated skill: Drilling Sonic Sword {×3}!]
[You have activated skill: Mega Sound Blast!]
[You have activated skill: Rupturing Sonic Ram!]
[You have activated skill: Sonic Torpedo Drill!]
[You have activated skill: Sonic Magic Teeth!]
Sebastian simultaneously activated 5 skills, then he was unleashed!
Boom!
The vibrations and sound waves in the water were first harnessed before being compressed in the shape of a giant sword made of sound magic as this gigantic weapon cut towards the nearest Rogue Snake Overlord.
Not just 1, but 3 of these magic swords were sent flying towards the snake. They ruthlessly cut through every beast or obstacle in their path just to get to their target which was the menacing snake overlord.
Followed by this attack was a loud sound blast that ruthlessly tore eardrums, turning hundreds of mutated beasts deaf. This AOE skill was so powerful that it materialized tangibly, dealing physical damage to the beasts.
Just a few seconds after these 2 attacks emerged, Sebastian's enormous body jerked a bit before turning into a Megalodon version of a speed boat.
With his sound domain magic blasting out in full power, forming a domain field of terrifying rupturing power, Sebastian swam forward with speed and momentum that seemed capable of blasting mountains apart.
Mid-swim, his body started rotating. His body rotated so fast that it turned into a blur, it took only a few minutes before the 15-meter-long body turned into a 15-meter-long terrifying torpedo.
Sebastian didn't just target the big hitters, he also focused on the naïve orange tier and below predators who thought they could take advantage of this situation and become a powerhouse due to a stroke of luck.
For these opportunistic beasts, he simply greeted them with his sonic magic teeth which at this moment demonstrated terrifying power.
Hell descended in Oceania!
Tu! Tu! Tu! Tu!
[You have killed a Mutated Zombie Shark- Level 17: You have gained Experience.]
[You have gained 12 Skill points and 10 Adaptation points.]
[You have killed a Mutated…]
[You have killed a Mutated…]
[You have killed a purple tier Basking Shark…]
It was when Sebastian's unstoppable momentum finally squashed a purple tier Basking Shark to death that the mindless beasts knew that they were facing a monster, then they evaded his path like he was the reincarnation of death itself.
With such a mighty display of power, Sebastian was finally on a direct course towards the mighty Atlantian Lieutenant Colonel who was currently protecting the traitor, Torpedum.
Sebastian's torpedo form already gathered enough momentum at this point, he simply added more fuel and left everything to fate.
Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid solemnly harnessed all the magic power that he could on his Trident, he supercharged the Trident before attacking.
BOOM!
2 powers of gigantic proportions collided and engaged in a tug of war!
The collision spread cracks through space as the Atlantian champion was thrown backward like a kite whose strings got cut.
Sebastian was also affected but he reacted much faster than his opponent, he did not allow the Atlantian soldier to drift away so easily though.
[You have activated unique skill: Water Transmutation!]
[You have created a magic manifestation: Vibranium Rope!]
The drifting Atlantian champion could not stabilize himself before he was caught by the rope. He was roughly yanked backward towards his enemy, and before he could react another skill already hit him.
[You have activated skill: Breath of the Sound Megalodon!]
Roar!
Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid felt like he was hit by a million-year-old meteorite. The impact cracked his bones, the sound that accompanied this skill ravaged through his body in such an invasive manner that he felt dead.
This Lt. Colonel felt pain erupt in his body, he also felt horrified, despite already overestimating his enemy, he never expected a purple tier predator to exhibit such terrifying strength.
Despite the weakness that suddenly invaded his bones, on feeling that his life was in danger, this Lt. Colonel grit his teeth hard and defended with his high-grade magic Trident as this Megalodon oppressed him.
The original splendor of a Lt. Colonel could no longer be seen in him, the tempo of the Megalodon was so unique that he was suppressed to the end.
He could only defend so much before Sebastian hit him hard again.
[You have triggered adaptation: Lancer Snout!]
[You have activated skill: Rupturing Sonic Ram!]
This time, Lt. Colonel Arachnid's mid-section caved in as the Megalodon's sudden sharp snout tore through his stomach, his mouth opened involuntarily while a fountain of blood poured from his mouth.
This Lt. Colonel suffered a critical hit!
His vitality started draining fast, but before Sebastian could deal the finishing blow, the large recoiling sound of a Rifle reverberated first before the sound of the accompanying beam quickly followed.
BOOM!
Sebastian activated his mega magic shield at the last moment but it only held for a few seconds before the superhot plasma beam raked through his sides.
In this battle, his enemy was not just Lt. Colonel Arachnid, his enemies were much more than that.
The plasma beam didn't pack with it the required kinetic energy to push Sebastian away, but the damage was so much that Sebastian's body instinctively recoiled on his own like he was just struck by a hammer.
Lieutenant Colonel James aimed some more and intensified his effort.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
