Ocean Master

The appearance of the Atlantian Annihilation Division Fleet was so abrupt and unexpected that it sent ripples of shock through the battlefield.

Even Captain Omega and his Black Mamba Division Fleet were shocked, they were not informed of this change in plans when the mission of the Sea King Inheritance was given to them.

Despite feeling shocked, they quickly recovered since they were already used to the way that their race's military operated.

Atlantis's famed battle strategy was placing backup plans behind backup plans to form an unceasing connection of backup plans, this was one of the main reasons for their rapid rise to become the overlords of Oceania.

Instantly, the chain of command changed. The Black Mamba Division Fleet was no longer the top command force of the Atlantian army on this battlefield, they were now the second top command force.

The Crimson Fleet, the Black Mamba Division Fleet, and the Annihilation Division Fleet, this was the power that Atlantis amassed for this important mission.

For something as important as a Sea King Inheritance which Atlantis was frantic about, it normally warranted the appearance of one of the race's legendary Mega Fleets but none was mobilized. 

This is because the plan for this operation started more than a month ago when the Doppelganger and Invisibility Sea King were being hunted.

The Atlantian Mega Fleets and the allied army of the Dark Elf race and Snowmen race were all occupied with an even more important mission.

They were engaged in an even more frantic battle than the one here.

Across Oceania, the variant human races were not only 2, there were dozens if not hundreds of variant human races that settled down on this world after the Great Fall more than a millennia ago.

For these races, even if they were not as powerful as the overlord, Atlantis, they were still powerful in their own rights and could not be underestimated.

Something as significant as the death of a Sea King could not escape them.

These races already discovered the death of the Doppelganger and Invisibility King, and without shame, they immediately mobilized their large armies to also take part in this huge meat that was before them.

They never considered that they didn't exert any effort or resources, nor did any of their soldiers die in the hunting down of the notorious Sea King, all they wanted was to reap where they didn't sow.

Already expecting this, Atlantis, the Dark Elf race, and the Snowmen race all reacted before the alliance could be formed.

They contacted the remaining 4 of the 5 widely acknowledged strongest variant human races alongside the Dark Elf race and solicited them with benefits so that they could hold back their armies and refrain from joining this battle.

This way, they could concentrate their strong armies on the allied army of the other variant human races that were coming their way.

This was why no Mega Fleet was allocated for the Sea King inheritance.

The obstacle was strong, but they believed that they had what it took to ride the storm out. if they decided to compensate every single variant human race, the losses would be more than the gains.

The ripples of shock that spread through the battlefield following the appearance of the new Atlantian Division Fleet were felt by every beast, most especially those of the Toad Alliance and the Turtle Confraternity.

The already bloodied Master Jiraiya and Master Paku widened their eyes.

"The Annihilation Division Fleet?!"

Both of them expressed their shock, this was because they knew the might of this Division Fleet. They were not exactly the best Division Fleet of Atlantis, but their Annihilation large-scale battle formation made them the best at large battles.

They were famous for wiping out large armies. Also, they were even more famous because of their leader, Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid.

This terrifying soldier was still a Silver Realm powerhouse, but he had been at the pinnacle of this realm for so long that his battle strength could already match those that were able to get to the legendary Gold Realm.

He was a soldier that could battle a Red tier predator.

For the past few minutes, Master Jiraiya, the powerful purple tier Toad was the one who acted as the default leader of the Toad Alliance for this mission.

Alongside Master Paku of the Turtle Confraternity, these 2 predators had been a thorn at the sides of the Atlantian soldiers for the past few minutes.

With his long magic sword, and his water domain magic, Master Jiraiya has wreaked havoc everywhere, turning the Atlantian soldiers to his plaything as he killed dozens of them in the process.

Together with Master Paku, they've killed more than 100 Atlantian soldiers already and were the main reason why so many toads and turtles already succeeded in entering the inheritance ground.

For the past few minutes, they've been flexing their ego like heroes, but at the sight of this Atlantian Lieutenant Colonel, these 2 predators fled as fast as a cheetah who just saw the fire of an imminent apocalypse.

Whoosh!

Both predators moved so fast that all that was left of them was a blur, they slipped their way into the inheritance ground before anyone could react.

They ruthlessly left the fate of their remaining subordinates to fate.

Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid paid no attention to the both of them though, this Atlantian soldier that towered like a Giant pinned his eyes on the Megalodon. 

He showed himself after Sebastian arrived, he came for Sebastian!

In his mission that was signed by Queen Auralis herself, the main priority was to capture the young Megalodon alive or to present its corpse. The 2nd priority of his mission was to get the Invisibility unique skill.

Every other thing that was inside the inheritance ground may be valuable but their importance paled in comparison to these 2.

"Lieutenant Colonel, I await your commands!" Captain Omega did not waste time before he relinquished the authority of the battlefield to his superior.

Lieutenant Colonel Arachnid looked at the projection of the Captain that was before him calmly. "Surround the Megalodon, capture or kill it!"

This order was not just directed at the Black Mamba Division Fleet, it was also directed towards the Crimson Fleet, and also the Annihilation Division Fleet which he commanded.

Instantly, all the Atlantian warships moved intimidatingly.

Atlantis revealed its domination flair again, this was the flair of a dominating emperor, the flair of the overlord race of Oceania.

Master Jiraiya of the Toad Alliance and Master Paku of the Turtle Confraternity was gone, the Space Beast was still recuperating at a corner, while almost all the stray purple tier predators already entered the inheritance ground.

At this moment, the Atlantian army had no opponent that could stop their momentum, they could finally concentrate on their mission.

Sebastian felt his blood freeze, danger suffocated his senses from every side.

Without waiting for him to react, the 100+ warships of the Annihilation Division Fleet moved. Paired with the warships of the remaining Division Fleet and Fleet, Atlantis had 160+ active warships on the battlefield.

This was a horrifying force!

Without hesitation, all the warships unleashed firepower on the Megalodon.

[You have activated skill: Magic Shield!]

[You have activated unique skill: Water Transmutation!]

[You have created a magic manifestation: Tower Shield!]

Sebastian prepared his defense to take on this descending firepower barrage though he didn't feel too confident about it. The might that was on display was too horrifying for a single predator to take.

"I'm already at a state like this without even catching a glimpse of inside the inheritance ground yet, what a waste!"

As the fire rain continued descending, Sebastian's heart stiffened further and he quickly decided to stop rationing his mana points.

He was about to create his ultimate defense magic manifestation and leave the rest to fate, but what happened next surprised him.

"Protect Sebastian!"

Old Mak roared as he rushed into the scene, his thunder magic already flaring wildly as this enormous Great White Shark turned into a monster that was akin to a glowing torch on the battlefield.

His body literally turned to a magnet that attracted lightning and thunder.

Behind him was a massive army of Great White Sharks, Draconic Lizards, and a predator ant that was well-known in this seamount.

Sebastian's eyes brightened on this sight; he remembered an important fact.

"I am not alone!"
