Ocean Master

Chapter 103 - Mystery Pryer Predators.

With Sebastian starting it, the Draconic Lizards and the remaining Sharks in the battlefield feasted on the meat of the Mammoth Crocodiles that they conquered in the battle.

Surprisingly, the Lizard Lord let his surviving family members to feast on the Draconic Lizards that perished in the battle, showing to Sebastian again how barbaric this world was.

The Lizard's thought process was that no waste was encouraged. Instead of letting the meat waste, the survivors would rather feast on them so that even at death, those Draconic Lizards were still contributing to the growth of the family.

It was a barbaric but effective method for continued growth.

A few dozen minutes later, all the food left on the battlefield was devoured completely. The Lizard Lord looked at Sebastian one last time before departing to their territory in the seamount.

As for the Great White Sharks, they didn't disturb him either. Assimilating magic essence may recover their injuries and restore their mana points, but stamina could only be restored by resting.

The Sharks all found any convenient place of their choice, then they finally laid down to rest. As for Sebastian, before resting, he had some things to do.

[Congratulations! You have eaten the meat of a predator high in the food chain: Devouring Octopus- Level 54. Basic Profile information of the Devouring Octopus has been unlocked.]

[Do you want to view the information now?]

"Yes".

[Octopuses are soft-bodied, eight-limbed mollusks of the order Octopoda. The order consists of some 300 species and is grouped within the class Cephalopoda with squids, cuttlefish, and nautiloids.] 

[Devouring Octopuses are a mutated variant of the normal Octopus. Like other cephalopods, they are bilaterally symmetric with two eyes and a beaked mouth at the center of the eight limbs.]

[Their soft body can radically alter its shape, enabling them to squeeze through small gaps and have various means of attacking prey.]

[Devouring Octopuses are part of the predators at the top of the food chain in some territories in Oceania. With their adapted appendages turned tentacles with sharp barbs, they can attack and kill at high speeds.]

[At full strength, they gain the devour ability that enables them to squeeze prey with their tentacles before swallowing no matter how big the prey is.]

[In Oceania, they are more notorious for their powerful tentacles and intelligence than their fire magic.]

Seeing this, Sebastian could not help but think back towards the proceedings of the battle. He felt grateful that the Octopus didn't have poison abilities.

Pairing poison with its already outrageous power, he was not sure if the victors of the battle would have been the same. 

"Red tier monsters are terrifying". He concluded before going towards the next basic profile information in his tab.

[Congratulations! You have eaten the meat of a predator high in the food chain: Mammoth Crocodile- Level 29. Basic Profile information of the Mammoth Crocodile has been unlocked.]

[In Oceania, Crocodiles are full aquatic reptiles who adapted to their environment over time. Crocodiles have more webbing on the toes of the hind feet for more specialized navigation through water.]

[Mammoth Crocodiles are a variant that evolved from the union of a Crocodile and a creature with the myth Mammoth bloodline.]

[They are famed for their powerful tail, endurance, and crushing bite power. Their frightening biting force is the bane of any monster with a large mass.]

[They have the fire magic domain in their bloodline, granting them fierce resistance against fire and the power to manipulate it also.]

[They are Kings when it comes to bite power.]

Sebastian agreed with every point that was given of Mammoth Crocodiles except the endurance point. Well, he had a point as he didn't see the alpha Croc revealing any abnormal endurance in the battle.

Perhaps, this was because his magic manifestation spamming killed it off too swiftly but he still didn't see this as one of their strong points.

He quickly put this out of his mind in preparations to focus on other things, this was because he had a lot of things in his mind. He needed to draw a scale of preference to organize everything properly.

"System, please explain Mystery Pryer Predators to me. I want to know things about them, especially the so-called omniscient magic".

[Affirmative!]

[Mystery Pryer predators are those who choose the route of prying into the magical secrets of Oceania. Doing this successfully brings a lot of benefits, but it also attracts retribution from the nature laws of Oceania.]

[Omnipresent Magic is comprehended after Mystery Pryer predators discover a mystery of the specific Sea they are in. With this, they unlock a certain portion of the magic mysteries, thereby comprehending a set of magic domains corresponding to it.]

[With omnipresent magic, Mystery Pryers can use every magic domain ability of the said mystery, granting them a significant advantage in battles.]

[They have a huge flaw though, which is that their omnipresent magic is restricted to the specific sea in which they unlocked the magic mystery.]

[When they leave for another Sea, Mystery Pryers need to unlock the specific magic mysteries there to get access to the magic domains corresponding to them.]

[Until they unlock omnipresent magic, Mystery Pryers are one of the weakest evolved creatures in Oceania.]

[They can only really access unrestrained omnipresent magic when they comprehend one of the magic mysteries corresponding to Oceania as a whole. But in all the history of Oceania, no Mystery Pryer has ever achieved this feat.]

[Another con is the retribution punishment from the laws of Oceania. The worse recorded can be direct death after being struck.]

[System Remark: Host is advised not to take on the Mystery Pryer evolution route, it is a path wrought with danger.]

Seeing this, Sebastian's eyes glowed with the sparkling light of having absolved new knowledge as curious thoughts and deductions were rapidly exchanged in his mind.

He always loved taking in new knowledge and at this moment, this was the right catalyst to enable him to get the perfect rest that he wanted.

He still had other queries that he wanted to be answered, but those could be shelved aside for now. 

He fell asleep feeling satisfied.. "I learned new things today".
