Chapter 379 - Sebastian's Show!

Sebastian's last gasp plan D was entirely dependent on his luck!

This was the main reason why he called the plan a last gasp plan. 

For him to resort to using this plan meant that cunning, and stealth infiltration no longer worked, and since he could win against neither the Chief Councilor nor the Ancient Basilisk in a brute strength contest, he resorted to luck.

Having witnessed the power of luck in numerous locations, most especially when he was chased by Tonado and the other predators when he killed the longevity fish, he knew how powerful it could be.

In Oceania, luck was not superstition, it was a real tangible force of nature that could influence things in a lot of mysterious ways.

Since conventional ways could not work anymore, this was why Sebastian resorted to the more mysterious ways of luck.

Having negotiated with his system beforehand, once he pleaded, his system responded and increased his luck, spending all the luck reserves in the process.

With this, Sebastian's luck became so OP that on activation of the Blood Vampire adaptation ability, despite the chances of activation being only 2%, the mysterious nature of luck did it, making it activate immediately.

Luck was really inevitable!

With his luck blasting out in full power, and the Blood Vampire ability successfully activating, the fate of the first mech that Sebastian attacked was sealed. The only problem was the second mech.

Sebastian was but one Megalodon, no matter how good and powerful he was, fighting against 2 opponents that were theoretically more powerful than him was no easy task.

This was the reason why he could not react on time despite his unconventional acrobatic maneuverability skill being active.

It didn't matter though; luck came to the rescue once again.

For the first time since he purchased this adaptation from his system during his evolution to become an orange tier predator and a sound domain magician, his Damage Reflection Skin Coating was finally triggered.

Once this adaptation triggered, his skin was like it became covered by a green energy shield as it intercepted the attack from the powerful spear.

He received only about 20% of the overall attack damage, which prevented him from dying immediately while this OP adaptation reflected over 80% of the damage to the enemy. 

The mech was shocked, its clownfish mech pilot was even more shocked as the damage rippled through the metallic frame of the mech, wreaking havoc and dealing untold damage.

In just one move, Sebastian completely destroyed 1 mech while his luck took care of the rest, leaving the 2nd mech in a near-destructed state.

These were not the only benefits that Sebastian got from his increased luck. Sebastian suddenly had a bold guess that the goddess of luck was finally smiling on him after snubbing him for more handsome Megalodon for so long.

Since the battle started, fighting with only his body skills left him feeling unsettled. He was too used to fighting with his mana, with his magic domain, and this was the reason why he tried to remedy it.

Despite everything that he tried with his mana control skill, he always fell short by a small margin and could not achieve what he wanted.

It was after his luck increased and he repelled the 2 mechs that he felt a change. Sebastian already long ago discovered that the mechs of the clownfish were not entirely mechanical, they were magic-powered too.

As soon as his Blood Vampire ability wreaked the first mech, he discovered that the magic power that enveloped and empowered it was dissipating.

Instinctively, he used his mana control skill and tried to tap into it. To Sebastian's shock, he was able to assimilate all the mana.

This was when a light bulb lit in his head. 

Instead of trying to harness the primordial origin essence that was the most ancient and complicated mana source, why not lower his expectations and try harnessing the mana of other predators?

Once he assimilated the dissipating mana, what Sebastian got shocked him.

[Mana Points: 723/8270!]

"Holy Freaking Sh*t!"

Sebastian felt like dancing at this discovery, but he was still self-aware enough to know that he was embroiled in a battle. Not only that, a powerful enemy was not far from his position.

This was why while the clownfish councilor was still marveling at what happened, shocked and trying to deduce how it happened, a rejuvenated Sebastian attacked the councilor's mech ruthlessly.

[You have activated bloodline skill: Breath of the Sound Megalodon!]

Woo…!!!

The sound blast came like exploding dominoes as it hit the mech with the impact of a mighty hammer against a rock.

The already weakened mech stood no chance. While being flung away, the mech quickly broke into metallic fragments and scrap but the clownfish councilor who piloted it managed to eject his cockpit before the complete breakdown.

In just a few seconds, Sebastian managed to teach 2 councilor mechs a battlefield lesson. All of a sudden, the Megalodon no longer seemed that fragile anymore to the powerful predators here at the moment.

From the little that was already displayed, it was clear that looking at Sebastian like the typical purple tier predator was foolish and dangerous.

Clearly, this shark was a freak!

The Chief Councilor felt even more agitated and determined to stop the Megalodon, but the Ancient Basilisk felt even more determined to stop its opponent from intervening and stopping the shark.

With these 2 still restraining each other, and the remaining 10 councilor mechs now strained with fending off the attacking barrage of the remaining 4 snake elders, Sebastian was now free to wreak havoc and get to his goal.

His only obstacles were the intimidating Doom Destroyer mechs who were not that much again, and the other mechs piloted by elite clownfish soldiers.

Sebastian didn't care though; those clownfish saw themselves as elite soldiers while he saw himself as an elite predator. 

The battle was no longer merely between snakes and clownfish, he was now in the game and with him in, the battlefield was now his showground.

It was time for his show!

"Bring it on!"
