Ocean Master
Chapter 377 - Absolute Stealth And Rapid Speed!

Over time, with consistent use of his unique skills, Sebastian became exposed more and more to the reason why they were called unique.

The importance of his Water Transmutation unique skill could not be quantified, and the same could be said about the Doppelganger and Invisibility unique skill if not even more.

The doppelganger ability of the unique skill was OP on its own, the invisibility ability was even more OP, having kept Sebastian under the radar for 3 hours.

Throughout these 3 hours, Sebastian was worried, thinking that he would be busted at some point but to his surprise, so long as he was able to keep the ability active, he remained invisible and indetectable.

It may seem far-fetched, but Sebastian after today was now confident that unless he was going against a powerful Black tier predator whose magic domain was focused more on scouting than fighting, he would never be busted.

Perhaps, he was wrong and he could be easily busted from his stealth state by any Black tier predator but a shark could dream. And it was this dream that gave him the motivation to engage in his last gasp move to get his goal.

"It is now or never!"

Once Sebastian activated the Supersonic Speed skill, his body jerked violently before he felt the next moment like he just left the normal dimensional space and was now inside the vacuum.

In here, Sebastian could hardly see his obstacles again as they now looked like bloated images that were shot by an 1800s mobile phone.

Whoosh!

The next moment, he finally erupted forward with speed.

The greatest advantage of having such an OP skill for movement, and having such an OP ability for stealth was that he swam forward in a lateral line like all the obstacles were not there.

The Invisibility ability's perk that enabled him to swim through obstacles like they were not there came in handy at this moment again.

Sebastian moved so fast at the moment that all he could see was a blur, he could hardly keep track of his surroundings even with all his senses activated.

Though at this moment, he was still invisible and was rushing through the enemy lines like they were simply not there, Sebastian knew that he was in a time limit as his face became paler with every passing nanosecond.

The Invisibility ability of his unique skill alone was a tyrannical mana drainer, and the fact remained that no matter how economical he had been using it, he had still been using it for over 3 hours already.

His mana was not full before as this mana draining skill was active, adding another massive mana drainer like the Supersonic Speed was like adding crude oil to an already burning fire and declaring violence.

Violence really went on in Sebastian's body as his mana drained like a running tap, not stopping no matter how hard or economical he tried to be.

2 skills were active, and they needed mana, there was no bargaining it.

From its normal blue, Sebastian's eyes turned red as he felt his mana points draining rapidly. At this moment, he felt like a diver who just lost his oxygen tank and had to stay economical with the last breath that he took.

Even as he tried to stay economical, the 2 skills taking the little that he had from him left Sebastian feeling like bashing his head against a wall.

Despite all the disadvantages at this moment, Sebastian strained his senses as he barely caught sight of what was happening around him.

From his initial position at the very end of the zone of glory, his outrageous speed enabled him to move so fast that he already passed the lesser battlefield where the 12 clownfish councilors and the 4 snake elders were fighting.

Once he passed this battlefield, Sebastian heaved a little sigh of relief before focusing on the next as his speed enabled him to eat yards of space like mere beans.

At this moment, only a few Doom Destroyers and the other elite mechs were stationed at the back as the last line of defense of the zone of glory.

All the other Doom Destroyers already mobilized to help their Chief Councilor and the other councilors.

Most of them that swam out to help joined the lesser battlefield of the 12 councilors and the 4 snake elders, only a few of them stayed in the main battlefield and all of them were optimized for ranged combat.

While maintaining a healthy distance from the massive predator, these powerful mechs burned their opponent with destructive loads of annihilation beams, positron beams, kinetic beams, and laser beams.

Sebastian rapidly calculated, his mind already geared on overload and was working at the speed of a computer.

If he could make it past the 2 battling hegemons of both races, then take it a step further past the last line of defense that was made up of the remaining few Doom Destroyers and other elite mechs, his breakthrough was sure.

Once Sebastian deduced this, he strived for it. For the next few seconds, he strived towards this goal until his mana finally succumbed.

[Mana Points: 632…, 321…, 93…]

[Warning! Your mana points have decreased below the critical point!]

[You have left the Invisibility State!]

[Supersonic Speed has been deactivated!]

It took only 3 seconds for Sebastian's mana points to decrease below 100. This was completely outrageous, but it was also a little expected.

Whoosh!

As soon as he left his invisible state, Sebastian finally felt the water hitting against his body again, including the friction that it brought.

He was not the only one who felt it, all the other predators quickly felt the presence of the intruder as the momentum of having moved at such outrageous speeds still tried to push Sebastian forward to his destination.

When he was forced out of his invisible state, he was barely passing the position of the Ancient Basilisk, the powerful mech was still at his front.

[You have activated skill: Mega Dash!]

Sebastian improvised instantly, switching from magic-powered skills to normal skills while trying to take advantage of the shock factor to escape to his destination before the clownfish and the snakes could react.

What he failed to take into account was that he was up against elite soldiers, powerful councilors, and ancient snake elders.

All the aforementioned predators all had superhuman reflexes that were trained through battle experience and relentless training for decades, or the snake elders even centuries.

Snap!

The powerful Ancient Basilisk reacted instantly to noticing the enemy. This massive predator's instincts were already honed for such a long time that his intuition told him first before he even detected the intruder through his senses.

He didn't know the motive of the intruder, but so long as the intruder was here, it meant that he was probably an enemy rather than a friend.

This was why his massive rows of teeth bit down instinctively and decisively.

Sebastian could feel the approach of the powerful jaws, he felt it as the powerful jaws and the rows of teeth hidden within them ruthlessly snapped shut just a few inches from his tail fin.

He shuddered, but he survived the disaster.

Sebastian took this cue as his luck in play again as he revved the engine more, trying as much as possible to bring his speed back to the maximum.

The advantage of his smaller body came to play again. With the water rapidly moving against his face, Sebastian tried to wriggle his way through the small corner that was left by the powerful mech that was already trying to crush him.

On discovering him, the Chief Councilor did not also show mercy. His actions were completely instinctual also to get rid of this threat.

In this tense situation, Sebastian saw hope again as his smaller body succeeded in wriggling through the small space away.

But he got hit the next moment.

When Sebastian's momentum almost already allowed him to cross to the other side, from the rib side of the mech, a 3rd hand suddenly came out which enlarged and grabbed Sebastian's body like a dad grabbing his kid.

With a loud whoosh sound, Sebastian was waved here and thereby the massive mechanical hand before he was finally thrown against the wall.

Boom!

Sebastian groaned in pain. "Last gasp plan D, activated!"
