Ocean Master

In just a few minutes after the first clash between the Atlantian soldiers and the predators, the Atlantians were forced to retreat, leaving Sebastian, Tonado, and Elder Shine behind in the cave.

A few seconds passed before the retreat of the soldiers was confirmed, this was when a group of familiar Great White Sharks swam into the cave.

"They escaped".

Hearing Old Mak's voice, Sebastian turned to face him calmly like the situation was completely under his control. 

"Yes, they escaped, but it doesn't matter because I got what I wanted".

As soon as he said this, the slight foggy mist that covered the battlefield that was induced by the intensity of the previous battle was cleared up more as a pair of human hands appeared. 

This was a magic manifestation that Sebastian secretly created and hid inside the chaos during the previous battle without alerting the Atlantian soldiers, not even his comrades knew of it.

And inside this pair of human hands was a small cube-shaped black gadget, this was the communication device of the Atlantian soldiers.

This was his target from the onset, not exactly the soldiers' lives.

As the one who called for help, though Old Mak had the right to refuse it, he was the one who was still allowed to make critical decisions on how the fight should go and the battle strategy on facing the Atlantian soldiers.

He already had such a large and high-profile clash against Atlantian soldiers, so he more or less knew most things about them already.

He knew that apart from the variability in weapons and magic gadgets that were wielded by the soldiers, a common fact with them was that each soldier had this cube-shaped black gadget for communication.

In his one month of captivity, Sebastian made an experiment with the guards who watched him and explored the cube-shaped black gadget.

The cube-shaped black box was just a covering, the real gadget was a chip that was stored inside this cube. The chip was the gadget responsible for communication, and it had a lot of other uses. 

Through his secret exploration, Sebastian already knew a lot about this gadget. Though there were a lot of differences, its features still had a lot of similarities to smartphones in his previous world.

This was the reason why he went for this gadget rather than the soldiers.

His opponent this time were elite soldiers, he didn't know the hidden techniques and cards that they had against predators. Unlike against the Crimson Fleet, he was even less confident against these 9 elite soldiers.

Of course, he had a reinforcement of 5 powerful predators now but until his hand was forced, he wanted to keep this force as hidden as possible.

This attack was just a preliminary to the real battle in the inheritance ground; the inheritance ground would probably be the real battlefield between him and the Atlantian Division Fleet that was on its way.

While he was being punched and battered by the fat soldier, this was when he secretly created this magic manifestation.

The intense clash and the bright light that followed were able to obstruct the appearance of the magic manifestation, which allowed them to stealthily steal the fat soldier's communication gadget.

Another facet of the communication gadget was that it had security measures. Against other predators, this was an unsolvable puzzle but against Sebastian who was too familiar with this, it was like he was a bug in this game. 

All he needed to unlock the gadget was the owner's face i.d. In the intense battle, while the fat soldier was agitated and excited, he was unable to detect it when the small chip swiftly moved past his face.

This was all that is required; the chip got the user face I.D that it needed.

With that said, Sebastian finally manipulated the human hands to open the cube-shaped box to expose the glowing chip that was stored inside.

{Face I.D confirmed: C.G unlocked!}

…

Huff! Huff!

"Damn! To think that we would be ambushed!"

"And to think that it had reinforcements, what a crafty shark!"

"That illusion magic purple tier shark changed the whole situation or that Megalodon stands no chance against our combined offensive".

"Lieutenant, we shouldn't have left so hastily, I had the situation on hand. I already had it locked with my unstoppable martial combo, if I was allowed to continue for just 2 minutes more, the vile shark would be dead".

"Silence!"

Lieutenant Lookman had a livid expression on his face as he glared at his team members, his rage was evident for all to see so the soldiers wisely decided to keep quiet and to let him speak.

The Lieutenant closed his eyes as his clenched fists clenched even tighter than he opened them before speaking. "We lost".

"But Lieutenant…"

"Silence! I want no more of it, we lost, accept it".

"We underestimated the Megalodon and we paid for it in the most painful and humiliating way possible, we were beaten to a retreat".

"But we…"

A glare from the Lieutenant shut the fat soldier's running mouth.

"Of course, I also see this as a humiliating result but it only drives me to give my all the next time. We lost once, but we succeeded in probing the enemy, we're the ones who actually benefited".

"We'll recover for 30 minutes before moving back".

"This time, I want us to gather as much information and if possible confirm that we are not being deceived again before engaging".

As the Lieutenant said this, a dangerous glint flashed across his eyes. "This time, we have to show these beasts the might of Atlantians".

…

Old Mak and the other sharks did not completely understand Sebastian's logic in letting the Atlantians escape, but they still let him continue.

{Face I.D confirmed: C.G unlocked!}

{Welcome back Sergeant Major Bam! You have 0 missed calls and 2 unread messages!}

{To access advanced communication gig features, please complete the 4-way security set-up.}

Seeing this, Sebastian's face scrunched up a bit since this 4-way security set-up was not in the communication devices that he experimented on. He already expected this though, elites were different from normal soldiers Afterall.

Unfortunately, he could not access the advanced communication gig features of this communication device now but he could read the 2 messages.

{Message access granted!}

{Message #1: Congratulations Big-boned Twig, you have won your sports bet for the Shark hunter battle team vs the Big-boned Ultimate Monsters battle team ending in a flawless victory in favor of the Big-boned Ultimate Monsters battle team. You have won 12,000 Atlantian credits.]

{Message #2: Priority Mission Update- The location of the unique inheritance's destination has been pinpointed; the coordinates are T.i2-oir67-2400- 1109. Deduced Location: Seamount 56.]

The first message on the communication device made Sebastian's eyes widen in surprise, this was an eye-opener to him that lit up his curiosity as he started thinking about Atlantian culture. 

His curiosity did not remain for long though as the second message captured his attention immediately after just the first sentence.

In the end, after reading it, his eyes shone brightly. Below the deduced location, seamount 56 was the image of a seamount that Sebastian was extremely familiar with. This was because he spent a significant amount of time there.

This was a seamount that he already marked inside his special achievement location tab; he marked this seamount as Octumpedam Seamount.
