…
Sebastian's eyes flickered slightly on seeing this.
His body was weak and exhausted after the rough experimentation session on his body that just concluded, but these system notifications were like a heavenly tonic that gave him fresh vitality when he needed it the most.
On the first day of his awakening, he opened the system's unique clue and saw this. Due to his situation then, he had no bodily reactions to it, but his brain was thrown into chaos.
Another Sea King!
Not even one that he needed to hunt, a Sea King who died, leaving its unique skill up for grabs, Sebastian was attracted of course.
Unfortunately for him then, he was at the weakest point of his life since he reincarnated into this world submerged in water.
With no other choice, he settled for patience, he had a month and 3 weeks to prepare. A month already passed, and he was not stagnant.
As an anatomist also, he understood the Atlantian, Doctor Statham's obsession over him though he hated the doctor's guts.
The Doctor may seem to be exploiting him without him being able to resist, but a silent snake was always the most dangerous Snake.
For his current condition, he had to thank Doctor Statham.
After over a month, he already knew a lot of things, not only through his communication with his system but also through his observations of the Atlantians that moved and worked around him daily.
Of course, when he first saw humans, he was overwhelmed. Despite this, he did not behave impulsively, after spending months in this world, he was already acclimatized to the fact that he was now a shark.
They were Atlantians, he was a Megalodon. They may look a lot like humans from his previous world, but he was not human again either.
Why should he give a damn about them? It was not like he could just go and yell at them that he was a human, who'll believe that?
After all this time, his physical condition already recovered to its previous peak. All his basic physical skills were now accessible again, but his magic organ was still a case in progress.
Apparently, the old toad's wheel of arcanity magic weapon was not something whose effects could be easily shrugged off.
Through communications with his system, he knew that his magic organ was practically dead already before the Doctor intervened.
Through the precious medical resources that the Doctor splurged on him to preserve him better for his experiment, not only did he survive, his already dead magic organ was also revived.
In a sense, Doctor Statham was his benefactor.
The magic organ revived, but it was at its weakest point. It was slowly recovering, and after one month, his max mana points were just 508 and this was only possible because of the supplementary treatment from the doctors.
So, staying here was a win-win situation for both him and the Doctor.
The Doctor got to work on him with him being docile and obedient, getting research breakthroughs, and creating miraculous drugs and tonics through his body, while he got free treatment to repair his magic organ.
Also, with the help of his system, he was able to understand how he was saved. He was unconscious but his system was not.
At the last moment, just before he went unconscious in the cave, Atlantians appeared. This was because coincidentally, an Atlantian cave exploration team was working inside the cave.
On seeing 4 severely injured purple tier predators, these excited soldiers ignored the risks and went in for the hunt.
Even if they could not keep any of them alive, purple tier predators were priceless. Every part of their body, from their skin to their organs, to their adaptations, they were resources that could replenish the Crimson Fleet.
Of course, it was Sebastian's bad luck that brought this encounter then. At some point, too much bad luck may result in a stroke of good luck.
Atlantians coming meant even bigger trouble than the purple tier predators that were after him, but at that moment, they were his lifesavers.
The bad luck ensured that he was captured, he lost his freedom, but a twist of fate decided that he kept his life. What an irony of life!
After that, he met Doctor Statham, the treatment started. In the end, both he and the terrifying old toad were captured, becoming test subjects.
All those culminated in his present state.
As for the old toad, after wreaking havoc during every experimentation session for over a month, it seemed that it was now resigned to fate, it hardly did a thing during the last operation of its body.
About the unique system clue, seeing things like elf race shocked Sebastian of course but the impact to him was on the mild side.
After seeing the term Atlantians when he reincarnated, and as he encountered more about this world, he was already suspecting that other races apart from beasts may be present and he was not wrong.
Through the system clue, he learned of those 2, and he learned even more from the mouth of the 5 Atlantian soldiers that guarded this chamber.
Through the mouth of these 5 soldiers, he learned a lot about Atlantis and even more about Oceania as a whole. At this point, he could not help but agree with the fact that there's a measure of joy in any situation, including captivity.
Through these blabbermouth soldier guards, he learned a lot about this laboratory, and also knew that his captors were the Crimson Fleet.
The soldiers were not restricted on what they could say, Afterall, Sebastian, and the others were mere beasts. They may have intelligence, but nothing exceptional, or so they thought.
To the terrifying old toad, most of the 5 soldier guards' words may seem like jargon, but they were detailed intel to Sebastian who was from earth.
He was a great fan of the movie series, Prison Break in his previous life. He watched enough action movies to deduce a lot from the soldier's words.
And now, he was in the process of planning his escape.
With his magic organ slowly recovering, a lot of things became much more convenient to him. The Atlantians may be cautious, but they were not cautious enough, at least not when their captive was him.
Through his electroreceptors, he already had a clear picture of this enormous laboratory inside his head. One month was more than enough time for him, the finishing touches were what remained for him to commence his plan.
Without a doubt, he was enthusiastic to go join the hunt for the Doppelganger and Invisibility King's inheritance. This was a unique skill that was being talked about.
After he thought some more, his eyes slowly closed as he rested his mind. Things were about to get exciting and he knew it.
