Ocean Master

The old toad attacked with his tongue adaptation again, giving Sebastian another injury but his momentum was not stopped. Both the Devouring Cobra and the Praying Mantis also attacked but his momentum was not stopped.

The distance to the small crack rapidly drew nearer, then he collided against it with a force that left that part of the cliff wall trembling.

BOOM!

Sebastian's shark face twisted in pain as he hit the cliff wall with force, with a part of his face forcing itself into the crack in the cliff wall.

Yes, this was his plan, forcing himself through this crack.

Due to his peculiar state of mind at that moment, he was able to observe and analyze at a level that he could not enter before.

Through this peculiar state of observation and analysis, he discovered the difference in this crack from the other cracks in the cliff wall.

The rocks surrounding this crack were softer than the others, and something like this could have only been caused if water was inside this crack.

Water being inside the crack meant that a big hole enough to hold water was inside. Not all the cracks led to a hole inside, being able to identify a crack that had a hole inside in such a tense atmosphere was entirely due to the special state that he was in a moment ago.

The only problem with this plan was that the crack was extremely small, too small for an enormous shark like him to pass through like a tunnel entrance.

This was where his guts and daring nature came to play.

He gambled with the fact that if he rushed and hit the crack with his body with an impact as heavy and forceful as possible, the crack entrance would expand due to the hole that was inside it.

This plan was unimaginably dangerous, considering the fact that 4 purple-tier predators were behind his tail. If it did not work, it meant that Sebastian was dead since the other predators would quickly end his life. 

Despite the risks, Sebastian felt relief as it worked.

The impact was so much that his face deformed directly in a terrifying manner, compressing in such a manner that his Megalodon head now seemed like the head of a Hammerhead shark. 

Of course, he received a lot of damage from this, both internal and external but since his organs were not damaged, it was not too much.

Despite this, he now had less than 50 health points remaining. The stacked damage from the Devouring Cobra's poison was what put him at the edge, decreasing his health points faster than his recovery speed could keep up with.

The fruit of all his sacrifices was that the crack entrance expanded a bit. The cracks already expanded, spreading towards other directions but the main location of the crack now revealed what seemed like a tunnel entrance.

Overjoyed and fatigued, Sebastian forced himself to go again.

Boom!

He collided against the crack entrance again, expanding it more, but it was still not enough for him to force his way in.

Despite feeling exhausted, with the sword of Damocles hovering above his head, he worked like a horse, going at it again.

Boom! Boom!

While this happened, time slowly moved forward and the 4 predators rapidly swam closer to their prey. 

As they got closer, their faces showed clear excitement and relief as their claws and talons were already ready to pounce on the shark meat.

Despite seeing their movements clearly through his electroreceptors, Sebastian did not pay attention to them, all his attention was now on doing the only mission that dominated his mind- expand the crack!

"Expand the crack!"

"Expand the crack!"

He kept on yelling this in his mind as his desire to live blossomed. Due to the continuous impacts with his head as the focal point, his face was already crushed so much that he lost his left eye also.

Despite this, he remained focused on his goal just for that chance of survival.

Since coming to this world, he had one main goal in his heart that he was not resolved to die until he fulfilled it- and this was successfully dissecting all the species in this world or the strongest creature in this world.

Recently, he just learned that he could engage in real dissecting. Now, he had still not dissected his first prey, he felt indignant to die now.

Apart from his main goal, he had other important minor goals. He wanted to find the motherf*cker Lord, he wanted to know her identity and confirm if she was an earthling like himself.

Also, he wanted to know the mystery of his reincarnation. These 3 goals were the most important minor goals up in his scale of preference that he was not resolved to die and leave without fulfilling apart from dissecting.

He was not resolved to die now. 

[Warning! Host's health points have gone below the dangerous territory!]

[Host's health points are now 18/821.]

"I am not resolved to die now!"

Seeing the system notification, Sebastian became agitated which became a kind of death or life motivation to him as he increased his ramming intensity.

He repeatedly hit the cliff wall with such force that his face was now almost crushed to meat paste. Mangled flesh was better to now describe his face. Despite the self-damage that he engaged in, it was working.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom…!!!

Crack!

Like a farmer that has been toiling for over a century for a hidden treasure who finally found it, Sebastian's badly mangled face revealed joy as he saw through his electroreceptors that the entrance finally became big enough.

[You have activated skill: Advanced Dash.]

Without hesitation, he accelerated, narrowly dodging the powerful hands of the old toad that were about to grab and pull him back.

He finally entered the hole inside the crack but he did not stop, like a machine that never got exhausted, he hit his body forcefully at the surrounding rock that surrounded him inside the hole.

Boom! Boom!

His actions were so forceful that the hole vibrated, the vibrations rapidly spreading out to affect the foundation of the crack.

The next moment, the crack collapsed, thick heavy rocks falling down as they quickly covered the entrance to the cave before the astonished eyes of the 4 predators that were after their prey.

The purple tier predators were isolated, while Sebastian was trapped.
