Ocean Master

Chapter 40 - A Bitter Battle Against The Devouring Cobra.



Crack!

Sebastian felt his head go blank and his vision go dark immediately after the ambush. He heard cracking sounds reverberating from his head like his bones were being broken and squeezed, though sharks don't have bones.

Even though he did not have bones, his cartilages were there to experience the suffocating feeling of the intense pressure induced by the tight squeezing and compression.

[You are currently being swallowed by the dangerous apex predator: The Devouring Cobra!]

[You have been inflicted with the dizzy feeling.]

[You have been inflicted with the stunned feeling.]

[You have been inflicted with the crushing feeling.]

[Your gills have been wrapped up by the corrosion skin of the Devouring Cobra: Your body has stopped the Ram Ventilation system process.]

[Until the Ram Ventilation process is restored, you will lose -4 Damage every second.]

[You have been inflicted with the suffocating feeling.]

[You have been inflicted with the Magic Liberation: This skill makes you no longer have the yearning to live, it makes your resistance against death weaker.]

[You have been poisoned: -6 Damage every second.]

For every health point that he lost, Sebastian felt the impact physically as his body became weaker and the pain became more prominent.

His head was already inside the enormous maws of the Devouring Cobra, the magic liberation skill did its job as he instinctively started feeling that he had no hope of surviving and should resist struggling.

The Devouring Cobra's ambush plan was seamless and without openings, but it forgot to add something, it forgot to add that Sebastian had a system.

As soon as the system spammed all these to him through notifications, his originally dying brain suddenly became hyperactive.

Inside the blackhole-like belly of the Cobra, his closed eyes snapped open as a green glow flashed through them dangerously.

[You have achieved a peculiar state of mind: You have fulfilled conditions to activate an innate talent.]

[You have activated talent: Adrenaline Surge!]

[Effects: All your skills will experience a 30% increase in efficacy for 40 seconds, and all your adaptations will experience a 15% increase in durability and usefulness.]

As soon as these notifications from the system flashed through his eyes, Sebastian's already glowing eyes glowed fiercer, illuminating the belly of the Devouring Cobra like the sun.

Then, the counterattack began.

Roar…!!!

[You have activated skill: Battering Ram.]

[You have activated skill: Shredding Bite.]

[You have activated skill: Sharp Dorsal Fin attack.]

[You have activated skill: Tail fin attack.]

[You have activated skill: Spike attack.]

Boom!

The Devouring Cobra's enormous body shuddered a bit as the prey inside its mouth struggled dangerously, hitting its body straight from its belly as its elongated body slammed against the walls of the tunnel.

It opened its mouth a bit due to the pain of the slam but it quickly closed them back, biting in the process and injecting even more poison into its prey's body as it continued its swallowing process.

But this did not last though as its prey struggled even more dangerously.

Ptui!

A pair of spikes jutted out of the prey's sides, stabbing into its thick elongated body as it shuddered again in pain.

Before it could recover from the damage, the originally docile tail and dorsal fin of the great white shark suddenly stiffened. Sizzling sounds filled the surrounding waterbody as the fins became red hot and sharp.

They sliced through its thick skin viciously like there was no tomorrow. Though its thick skin held, the fins were still dealing considerable damage to it.

It still tried to continue its swallowing strategy despite all these but its decision changed immediately after its brain transmitted the painful feeling of a row of sharp teeth shredding its internals.

Pure confusion first shone in its eyes, it couldn't comprehend how the prey could still struggle inside its belly but it responded immediately to the attack, following the tactics imprinted in its instincts.

Immediately, its powerful muscles tightened further, then it started twisting and turning rapidly on the water.

This was a strategy to tire out its prey, and it has worked for it countless times before today was no exception.

As soon as the Devouring Cobra started this, Sebastian instantly felt his muscle power lessening and fatigue striking in.

Filled with desperation already now, his eyes suddenly shone brighter as a beacon of hope appeared before him. After spending its time since, his magic organ finally regenerated some mana and he tapped into it immediately.

[You have activated unique skill: Water Transmutation.]

[You have created a magic manifestation: Flaming Sword.]

Without hesitation, he controlled the magic manifestation with his remaining flames of willpower and slashed as hard as he could with it.

Sizzle!

[You have dealt staggering damage to your opponent: -38 damage {×2}.]

The flaming sword was as tyrannical as always, it slashed only 2 times before dissipating as Sebastian's magic power got exhausted but these 2 times were enough to do the needful.

The first slash cut a deep injury through the snake's elongated evil hide, then the second struck the same place as the first, finally separating a portion of the Devouring Cobra's body from its main body.

Hiss…!!!

Sebastian already anticipated it, and it really happened.

Feeling the sudden pain brought by losing a part of its body, the Devouring Cobra hissed in pain and could no longer coordinate its body as it instinctively tried to abandon its swallowing plan.

It was a good reaction, but it couldn't work again. Because of Sebastian's spike adaptations that were currently dug into its body, it was unable to pull back out from its swallowing.

This was a similar situation of a fish bone getting stuck in your throat.

Sebastian was not going to waste such a God-sent opportunity, he pooled together all his remaining strength and erupted like a rabid dog that was irritated.

Crunch! Crunch!

His teeth bit savagely in a barbaric manner, his spikes kept on digging deeper into the snake's skin, his hard dense skin-covered body kept on bashing hard at the Cobra's belly, he attacked with everything available to him.

[Congratulations! You have unlocked an active ability of the Vampire Teeth Adaptation.]

[Blood Vampire!]

[Effects: By taking 5% of your health, you have a 2% chance of activating the blood vampire state- which enables you to deal an attack that will take 70% of your opponent's health points.]

Without hesitation, Sebastian activated the ability instantly.

Crunch!

[You have dealt a staggering blow to your opponent: -230 damage!]

Hiss…!!!
