"Oh, they are here already?"
Sebastian exclaimed a bit after listening to Old Mak but he quickly controlled his emotions due to having expected something like this.
It would have been weird after so long the Atlantian reinforcements still haven't caught up to him, so he was already planning against them long ago.
Seeing Sebastian's slightly nonchalant reaction, Old Mak was not surprised.
After having watched this Megalodon throughout the period when he was severely injured till now, he was one of the few predators who had a clear idea of his strength and cunning wits.
Sebastian may be young, but he was already a formidable Megalodon so Old Mak's reaction was even calmer as he demanded.
"So, do you have a plan?"
"Well, not exactly a plan…, but can I know how many of them there are?"
"We've discovered 6 of them, we have no idea if there are more".
Sebastian was surprised. "That's lower than I expected, I guess the quality of these soldiers would be despairing then".
"If they fall within my calculation range, then I have a plan".
Sebastian's eyes gleamed excitedly. "Actually, to the current me, completely escaping their pursuit is not impossible to me, but they have something that I need which makes them a pivotal point in my plan".
"Here's the plan…"
…
"Reporting, Lieutenant, we just pinpointed the Megalodon's location".
"Good! Is the Doctor still alive?"
"Yes, the Doctor is strangely still alive but the toad is nowhere to be found. It seems our speculations were right, they probably separated along the way, or its severe injuries already led to its death".
"Hmm? The Doctor is still alive?"
This time, the tone of the 1st Lieutenant carried a trace of doubt and suspicion. He paused for a few seconds before ordering his subordinates to continue with the report.
"We just sent their current location details; they are both huddled up and hiding in a rock cave".
"Good! Converge and wait for my signal to attack".
"Yes, Sir!"

As soon as 1st Lieutenant Lookman aborted the transmission, his face became serious again as he silently looked into the distance with a lot of things rapidly going through his mind.
He was currently inside what seemed like a triangle-shaped underwater carriage. Unlike mini-submarines, apart from its triangle shape, it was much smaller with a maximum capacity of just 3 individuals.
This triangle underwater transport vehicle was called a Tridod.
Its outward make-up was entirely mechanical, but a part of its body was filled with strange magical circuit lines. Its overall body make-up was mechanical also, only its weapons were magically powered.
The weapons in this magic Tridod were not complicated, just a pair of openings where what seemed like gun muzzles jutted out from the bottom edges of the triangle-shaped machine.
There was a pair for the front and another for the back. These 2 were the entire make-up of the Tridod's weapons, but they were dangerously lethal.
Inside this magic Tridod alongside 1st Lieutenant Lookman were 2 other Atlantian soldiers. Just like the Lieutenant, their faces were cold and nonchalant like they didn't give a damn about anything happening in their surroundings.
They were donning special gear consisting of weapons, armor, and different support gadgets. Their armor was like a shirt, being extremely flexible which enabled easier maneuverability in battle.
At the center of the armor was a drawing of a large Black Mamba snake whose enormous body coiled around a long golden-rod. The most prominent feature of this Black Mamba was its golden-colored Eagle head.
This drawing was the iconic emblem of the Black Mamba Division fleet, the Black Mamba with a Golden Eagle Head.
1st Lieutenant Lookman's Spider team consisted of 9 team members.
To enable easier reaction speed and flexibility in mission battles, Lieutenant Lookman divided his team into 3 sub-teams with each one having a magic Tridod.
It was 3 days ago after they arrived at this volcano region that they started tracking down the Megalodon but without effective results.
Sebastian was too tricky. Aware of the fact that stronger Atlantian soldiers were probably after him already, he consciously erased his traces and hid from view which succeeded in frustrating this Lieutenant.
Whenever he thought that he was close to capturing Sebastian, that was when he discovered that he was still far from the truth.
Though his face remained calm throughout all these, his emotions were already getting riled up. Now that the location of the Megalodon was finally confirmed, he felt his blood boiling hot.
The patient dog gets to eat the fattest bone, he guessed that it was now his time to eat this fattest and over-bloated bone.
Without hesitation, he ordered his magic Tridod to move.
Whoosh!
The magic Tridod vanished after gathering red magic power for 5 seconds.
…
Whoosh!
5 minutes later, in a deserted area of this volcano region, close to the cliff walls, 2 magic Tridods suddenly accelerated here before stopping silently.
From one of the Tridods, a small door opened through which 2 Atlantian soldiers armored from head to toe and on helmets floated out. These 2 elite soldiers rapidly surveyed the surrounding before moving forward.
Putting aside their other gear, their most important weapon was a spear and a spiked mace. The buffier soldier held the mace while the leaner soldier wielded the spear that was somehow shaped like a Trident.
As these 2 soldiers moved, an orange glow surrounded them which kept on spreading to the surroundings in rhythm like the pulse beats of a heart.
This orange glow was their magic power, and they were both currently using a scouting skill that could enable them to see ahead though with little effectiveness but astonishing flexibility.
While they did this, it did not take long before the third Tridod arrived.
As the 2 soldiers still moved, 1st Lieutenant Lookman grabbed his royal Trident before also deciding to get dirty. He personally joined this hunt.
By the time that he led the other soldiers closer, the 2 first soldiers already pinpointed the cave. And through their technological devices, they already had footage of Sebastian taking a nap inside the cave.
Doctor Mrs. Josephine was forced to stay close to the Megalodon though it was sleeping, she was safe and this distance to soldiers like them was something that they could cross in moments.
Surprisingly, the situation seemed perfect for them.
Their hunt target, the Megalodon was actually asleep when they arrived and their fellow countrywoman was also not in a compromised state. Which other scenario could be better than this?
Lieutenant Lookman watched for 3 minutes more, showing his cautious side before he finally decided to move inside with his soldiers.
"Move in!"
Unfortunately for them, the battle already started without them noticing.
