Ocean Master

Chapter 237 - Emergence Of The Space Beast!

"A Purple-tier Mutated Chameleon!"

Seeing this sea monster who despite having revealed its animosity was still in a shape that made it seem like one of his warships, Captain Omega's face turned even more livid as the muscles in his bald head shifted ominously.

On earth, according to Sebastian's knowledge, chameleons were only capable of changing the color of their body to blend with their surroundings.

That was on earth though, this was Oceania, the laws were vastly different, this was a world in which rules were defined by the origin magic. This was a magic world that could not be explained by human understandings.

Here, predators could do things that were vastly more advanced than the basic due to evolutions, skills, and adaptations.

This purple tier mutated Chameleon was one of these advanced predators. As it evolved, apart from changing the color of its body to blend with the surroundings, it also learned a skill to adapt its body shape.

This was the reason why it was able to blend with the fleet of warships without alerting a single Atlantian soldier, and successfully ambushing them.

It didn't speak a word to the Atlantians, it didn't even know what these tiny creatures were, all it knew was that they seemed dangerous, so it simply did what it normally did to dangerous opponents, it attacked them.

Boom! Boom!

What seemed like illusory green tentacles lashed out from the Chameleon's body in waves, while tying the first warship that it attacked down, these illusory tentacles also wreaked havoc across the ranks of the Atlantian soldiers.

Though it was not able to destroy the sturdy warship due to the strong metal alloys that its armor was made of, it was able to tie the warship down.

These illusory green tentacles revealed the Chameleon's domain as a powerful light domain magic predator. 

These tentacles were not entirely real and were mere simulated reflections from light magic, but they were tangible enough to deal real damage to opponents.

At this moment, these tentacles turned into a menace to the Atlantians.

One Purple tier predator was not enough to stop the advance of the Atlantian army entirely, but placing the Rock Monster into the equation tipped the scales heavily to the other side.

At this moment, the emergence of the 2 originally hidden purple tier predators gave a purpose to the other mutated sea beasts that were behind them.

These 2 predators instantly became the default leaders, all the other predators flocked behind them and amassed an even more terrifying force.

An enemy with a purpose was far more terrifying than a purposeless genius, at this moment, the momentum that could be accumulated by purpose was released as the sea beasts created another tsunamic stampede.

They rushed towards the Atlantian soldiers like the plague.

Seeing this, Captain Omega was not flustered, he was silent as he looked at the top of the seamount with a huge frown now on his face. 

Unlike what he expected, the situation already changed faster than he predicted which could affect his plans negatively.

Unlike other Atlantian Captains, he was not a good fan of meticulous plans and loved playing the direct game. 

His plan for this mission was simply to hit and fight hard, eliminating all enemies before they could react and getting to the inheritance entrance first.

Then, after getting there, his Division Fleet would form a defense perimeter which would serve as the main battleground while his advance troops already rushed in to take in the tests of the inheritance.

Due to their experience from previous monster inheritances, Captain Omega knew that after the official setting up of the inheritance, the next thing that follows was an endless tide of mutated beasts hoping to take a bite from it.

Because of this, it was calculated that the first 30 minutes after the setting up of the inheritance was the most crucial since the situation would be less chaotic and more controllable.

This was the optimum time for the Division Fleet to take control of the situation, then set up a defense perimeter and grind it out with the beasts.

Pairing it with this information, Captain Omega's mission plan was actually feasible but this new variable already spoiled it, the hidden predators.

Different types of predators had different sensitivities with their 6th sense.

Whereas other predators would only feel the desire and start rushing over after the inheritance was officially set up, others would have felt it long ago and would have arrived long ago also.

Most of these predators on arriving and seeing nothing may decide to trust their instincts and stay temporarily on the seamount while the impatient ones may leave immediately.

From the display of the Rock Monster and the mutated Chameleon, it was clear that the Black Mamba Division Fleet encountered such sensitive predators this time and they were not just one.

Captain Omega stared upwards with a frown, he was about to give an order to his fleet but perhaps sensing his intention already, another predator acted.

Hooooooooooo!!!

On hearing this loud sound that seemed like the singing of a whale and at the same time the singing of a divine bird, Captain Omega's face darkened even further as his heart skipped a bit for a moment.

All the sea beasts in this battlefield also froze for a moment on hearing this voice like it was a decree from their beast Emperor.

As space-time seemed to freeze up, the mutated beast who made this sound finally emerged out of the shadows where it originally hid.

Captain Omega only needed one look at this beast to confirm his speculation as his heart turned heavy, this was a Sea King Inheritance indeed.

This enormous hidden beast that just appeared was among the extremely rare race of beasts in Oceania with the pinnacle bloodlines.

This sea beast was widely known as a Space Beast.

Towering at a size of 30 meters, this beast looked like a mountain as its shadow was reflected into the surface of the seamount. It looked like a Leviathan with 3 enormous horns poking out from its head.

It had enormous fins that made it seem like a manta ray, through which currents of electricity rapidly moved across like snakes being reared in a den.

Just a slight opening of its enormous mouth revealed the unreal rows of dangerous teeth that were hidden underneath. With sizes akin to giant spears, these teeth could pierce through virtually anything.

From underneath its enormous belly, 2 rows of hands with dangerous-looking claws jutted out, successfully making this beast a complete allrounder with little to no flaws and weaknesses.

At this moment, its blood-red eyes glared at the inheritance entrance for a few seconds before they retracted and narrowed down on the tiny Atlantian.

Feeling this predator's gaze, Captain Omega felt a chill go down his spine but he shook it off the next moment, this wordless challenge made his blood start burning hot already as the muscles in his bald head squirmed excitedly.

This was still just a purple tier beast, but its identity as a Space Beast alone already set it above every other creature that was here for this inheritance.

According to legends, Space Beasts were the original inhabitants of Oceania. It is a race of beasts with sea beasts of different species all tied together due to the similarity in their bloodline and the power that it contained. 

Not only could they swim freely through the water, on getting to their stage of maturity, but they also had a skill that could enable them to transverse dimensions.

This was the main reason for their name, Space Beasts.

As a beast race with one of the extremely rare pinnacle bloodlines in Oceania, Space Beasts were favored beasts of the origin magic essence and each of their young ones came to life as purple tier predators.

Legends say that living in them is the rumored 5th and joint most mysterious natural core alongside the time core, the space core.

These were beasts who controlled space magic from birth, space magic was more or less like instinct to them from the first day that they opened their eyes to this world. This was their talent.

Though this space beast was still a youngster, it was now the undisputed strongest contender in this battle as soon as it appeared.

Before the beast could move though, stimulated by the challenge already, Captain Omega's eyes suddenly turned pitch-black. Black wisps of gas started escaping from his body to form what seemed like a dark fog around him.

While this happened, the samurai gear that he wore vibrated gently as their surfaces were affected by the dark fog, turning them to a pitch-black color also.

The Samurai sword on his waist vibrated intensely like an excited child that was finally about to escape the terrible fate of being grounded at home.

For the first time since this battle started, Captain Omega was forced and was about to go all out with his strength.

When he raised his head again, his eyes were equally blood-red like those of an asura overlord that just descended from the abyss.

The water turned thicker, the atmosphere turned as cold as ice, time froze.
