[You have been attacked by a Basking Shark!]
The last thing that Sebastian saw from his system notification was this, then his consciousness directly shut down. The melody-less sound blast was so powerful that his inner ears seemed to have ruptured from the sound.
Boom!
The sound drummed like thunder, echoing to hundreds of kilometers in seconds as both the 21 sharks and every other creature on the path of the sonic blast fell into a moment of unconsciousness.
Of course, it was only the stronger creatures that felt this. Most of the white tier creatures with low tier bloodlines all exploded into a bloody mist immediately after coming into contact with the sound waves.
About a second later, Sebastian became the first shark to open his eyes, recovering from the immobilizing effects of this sharp sonic attack.
Despite also being a sound domain magician, this attack affected him the same way that it did to the other sharks without compromise. The only thing which helped him was his Megalodon bloodline and probably his higher mental stat.
As soon as Sebastian's eyes regained focus, he felt a strong sense of pain erupt from his body as through his already active electroreceptors, he felt blood flowing out from every orifice of his enormous body.
Due to his enormous size, the thick blood oozing from his body immediately dyed the surrounding water red.
His ears suffered the most, he now seemed like a deaf shark, all he could hear was static buzzing sounds chaotically filling the background.
While still bearing the pain from his internal injuries, he directed his electroreceptors around and was relieved as no shark died from the attack. Despite this fact, almost all the white tier sharks were severely injured.
As he felt the stimulation from the pain, his adrenaline level slowly rose.
Without even having to think, Sebastian knew that this opponent was a purple tier hegemon of this ocean volcano cliff.
"Defense unit, prepare the shields!"
He almost didn't finish yelling this when the water ahead of them suddenly started bubbling up and down, inducing waves and spreading ripples across the water with speed as an enormous brown predator sped towards the team.
This was no ordinary predator; this was a Basking Shark!
With an enormous 25 meters brown long body that was almost 2 times bigger than Old Mak in terms of wideness and countless times heavier, this enormous shark immediately revealed its identity as a terror of this region.
Its enormous mouth remained widely opened, revealing the blackhole-like depths inside it. Though it had no teeth, the mouth alone was dangerous enough.
And at this moment, this enormous shark was rushing towards the group of 21 sharks. From afar, it seemed to have heard Sebastian's orders to his teammates as this prompted it to act from a distance.
With its mouth still opened, bright light erupted as a ring-shaped green sonic blast was released. Unlike the previous incorporeal anti-melody blast, this was corporeal and extremely dangerous.
It was at this moment that it attacked that the sharks forming the defense unit of the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team also reacted.
A huge water defense wall was suddenly formed in the path of the green sonic blast which was quickly followed by a light magic vertical defense wall.
Crack!
Immediately after both skills came into contact, the first vertical light magic defense wall revealed cracks. In 2 seconds, it dissipated.
The water defense wall's performance was worse, it could not stop the sonic blast either. All it did was slow down the sonic blast as it passed through, but this was enough for the already prepared Megalodon.
[You have activated unique skill: Water Transmutation.]
[You have created a magic manifestation: Tower Shield!]
Boom!
Immediately after the oversized pitch-black tower shield appeared, the green sonic blast collided against it. Both sides stopped, coming to a temporary stalemate which the tower shield won as the sonic attack finally dissipated.
At this moment, the heavy but fast Basking Shark already appeared. Before it could go on the attack, Sebastian charged head-first into it.
Sebastian no longer created another magic manifestation; he used his basic skills instead. From experience, there was no other opponent better than purple tier predators to train and level up skills with.
With a loud booming sound like those of a metal drum hitting against a rock, Sebastian's glowing head collided against the shark's upper mouth.
Having recovered quickly from the impact, Sebastian went for the bite, digging his teeth into this predator's upper mouth flesh before it could react.
Crunch!
Blood finally flowed from the basking shark but it was not resigned. It could swim at impossible speeds with its heavy body, but it could not stir right or left as quickly which proved a little troublesome now.
As soon as Sebastian's teeth dug in, he did not let go as he went in fully. His spikes quickly grew out as he propelled his body, striking the spikes inside its mouth and causing an injury that caused blood to flow out.
This enormous shark was not without countermeasures for a swift and cunning enemy though, it immediately activated another skill.
[You have been affected by a sound domain magic skill: Guitar!]
Immediately after this skill was activated, lightweight strings like those in a guitar appeared around Sebastian as they started glowing while playing out a deadly melody that attacked.
This melody was not to purely attack, but they were to restrain too. While dealing damage, the randomness of their melody constantly affected Sebastian's brain, making his actions and decisions to experience time breaks.
The Basking Shark took advantage of this immediately. From the side of its widely opened mouth, curved spikes like the tusks of an elephant rapidly grew out as they dug into Sebastian's body amid his time-break suffering.
Not only that, it activated another skill, causing the guitar strings to turn flexible as they all moved, tying down the enormous Megalodon that was before them.
Before Sebastian could break free from the time breaks, he was restrained. Now, with his opponent immobilized, the Basking Shark charged again.
This time, without hindrance, its glowing green body forcefully collided against Sebastian's small puny body in comparison to it with a skill that Sebastian was familiar with.
[A skill has been used on you: Rupturing Sonic Ram.]
[You have received staggering damage from your opponent.]
The rupturing sonic ram was a powerful random advanced version of the battering ram skill. After the impact, Sebastian felt dizzy from the force before feeling like he was invaded by a snake, a snake that was attacking and rupturing all his blood vessels.
His body was ravaged by the internal sound waves of this skill as blood vessels in him snapped before rupturing into 2.
Amid this agony, Sebastian received worse as the Basking Shark's enormous mouth came slamming down at his body. He instinctively activated his magic shield but it did little before this falling disaster.
The Basking Shark had no teeth, but its mouth has terrifying crushing power. Its mouth closed shut with a crushing bam sound.
[A skill has been used on you: Crushing Jaws!]

Grii!!
Sebastian tried to hold it in but he could not as he growled in pain.
