After thinking long and hard, Sebastian concluded that only evolving to the purple tier would be able to save his life at this point. This was the next plan that he arrived at to save his life.
Of course, he already heard of the dangers of rushing the evolution to the purple tier from others. With Teeth and other sharks of the Old Mak shark clan as forerunners, he should have been cautious but not now.
Right now, he was at the terrifying junction of life that separated death.
One single wrong move and his name may be referred to in the past tense the next moment. He regretted his decision to lower his luck further, but he forced himself not to regret it anymore, he made the decision himself.
The more he stayed in this world, the more he resolved to take responsibility for each of his actions and decisions. These were his gradually expanding principles that he developed since his transmigration.
Considering the painful fact that after his hunting team's recent hunt, he would have been able to seek guidance from the shark elder, Dangle, he could only laugh bitterly.
"Screw bad luck!"
He was a Megalodon who spoke with action rather than words, he acted on his plan immediately. He was a shark who already underwent the process of evolution twice, he was not a newbie to it.
"System, give it to me!"
[Affirmative!]
[You have reached the limits of the 3rd level cap; you can proceed to attempt a breakthrough. Your chances of success are 50%.]
[Proceed with breakthrough attempt: Yes/No?]
"Yes!"
[Breakthrough mechanisms have been put in place. Stabilizing host…, host has been stabilized.]
[Mental check: ...]
[Physical check: …]
[…]
[…]
[Mental check: Slightly Unstable.]
[Physical check: Unstable.]
[Warning! Does host want to continue with breakthrough attempt despite an unstable physical state?]
Sebastian hesitated on hearing that, weighing his options.
Breaking through from a normal Great White Shark to the white tier, according to the system, his chances then were 75%. From the white to the orange tier was 65%, now to the purple tier was 50%.
Sebastian didn't know if 50% was because his system secretly helped him from the shadows. After all, such a percentage could not warrant the current dread that was held towards it in the shark clan.
To be sincere, 50% still scared him a lot but he had no choice. Now, with his mental and physical evaluation not at their peak, his chances would be further lowered but he didn't hesitate much.
His current situation was like being stuck in-between a rock and a hard place, going either side was not going to be easy.
"Yes, continue the breakthrough attempt".
[Affirmative!]
[All parameters for evolution are complete, the host's consciousness will now be drawn into the illusion realm.]
Compared to previous times, Sebastian had no reaction to feeling the mental prick, the pain he was currently feeling in his body was worse. A few seconds later, his consciousness left his body for a magical outside exploration.
The bright green light intensified, then darkness descended.
…
Blink!
Sebastian simulated this sound again as his consciousness was aroused to remind himself that he was now in the illusion realm.
With one observation glance, Sebastian heaved a sigh of relief. Like before, he was now existing as a phantom. The only strange thing was that he was no longer in the red background environment of the ocean volcano region.
He was now in a completely white background environment.
Before he could observe what brought this anomaly, the light intensified to a blinding level as he instinctively shut his eyes. When he opened them, he was back in the familiar bustling city of great white sharks.
Before Sebastian could observe properly, he immediately noticed a difference. He randomly made a guess during his previous evolution and he was right, his vision this time was countless times sharper and better.
It was like his eyes suddenly turned to that of an eagle.
Before he could relish this experience properly then observe this bustling shark city again, he was shocked as an enormous shark appeared before him the next moment.
Unlike the previous times, he was given no time to observe the city of sharks again, neither was he given another chance to see his shark dad battling which meant he got zero references for his choices later.
The shocking thing was that his shark dad directly appeared before him, and the enormous shark looked at him straight in the eyes like he could see him.
"Descendant heir 248".
The enormous shark said as he looked at Sebastian, which exposed the fact that he could indeed see Sebastian.
Sebastian was gobsmacked, absolutely shocked. It took him a few seconds to recover from his shock, and immediately after, he secretly observed his shark dad. This shark was the best reference for his choices later.
Before he could start observing, he was disappointed.
His shark dad was as plain as plain could be. Towering at only 20 meters long, and with no visible adaptations, Sebastian was disappointed.
But this disappointment soon turned into respect. As a shark who already interacted extensively with purple tier powerhouses, he felt a peculiar feeling from his shark dad immediately.
His shark dad was a Red tier predator!
Sebastian was ecstatic, feeling that he finally found a path out of the dangerous wilderness that he found himself but he was disappointed again.
"Prove your aptitude by becoming a purple tier Megalodon, that is your ticket to coming back to the city and getting your inheritance".
With that, the enormous shark disappeared.
Crack!
This illusion world suddenly revealed cracks before shattering the next moment before Sebastian, the illusion journey was over, so fast.
[Host has experienced the illusion realm.]
[Evolution will start in 10 seconds.]
[You will be given a lot of options; choose wisely.]
Seeing this, Sebastian was stunned for some time but 2 seconds to the time, he calmed down. Having experienced a lot since transmigrating into this world, he was able to forcefully ignore what just happened for later.
Right now, he still had an uphill target to overcome.
He relaxed his mind and let the portal that suddenly appeared suck him in. When he recovered, he was already in the rainbow-color world filled with clouds.
[Host's evolution process has started. You have only 30 minutes to contemplate and make the choices that you want for your evolution route.]
[Your authority level with the system has gone up a grade.]
[Your remaining evolution time- 29: 57.]
[Make your choices.]
Sebastian took a deep breath, then he started. Before starting, he already faintly planned and had targets in mind so he did not waste time.
Like the flash, he started rapidly accessing the system evolution tabs that were shown to him while equally rapidly making choices.
Of course, he met some roadblocks that took more of his time but in consideration of time, he made choices that he couldn't think deep into first. He felt regretful of all these but he had little choice to do anything about it.
After completing all his skill and adaptation purchases, he relaxed and finally decided on his main evolution route after choosing from the 5 evolution routes that were presented by his system.
[You have chosen your evolution route: Sabertoothed Megalodon!]
[Would you like to confirm your choices?]
"Yes".
His vision turned black, then his evolution began.
…
Blink!
Sebastian opened his eyes after just 30 minutes since his evolution started to see a system notification that could induce suicidal thoughts.
[Evolution Failed!]
