At the entrance of the rock cave where Sebastian turned into his new base.
The 2 soldiers that were left behind to guard the entrance to the cave looked alertly at their surroundings, while also paying attention to everything that was going on inside the cave.
Individually, they were both heavy punchers and few predators could stand their might but they were never arrogant.
Prudence, seriousness, and staying calm in dangerous situations were one of the most important qualities that made them elite Atlantian soldiers.
Bzzz!
"We suffered an ambush!"
As soon as they heard this through their ear comm, their ears stood as erect as antennas as their blood pressure increased immediately. Adrenaline flowed through them as they seemed to develop heightened senses instantly.
Their eyes that now shone like lanterns on a Christmas night roamed the surroundings even more alertly.
Crack!
This was when something cracked before them. They felt strange, it was like scales were originally in their eyes which now fell off. It was like they were living in a fake world before, and they finally now burst their way into the real world.
Shockingly, this real-world was far different than what they've been alertly watching for the past few minutes. Unknowingly to them, as they kept watch, the surrounding was tampered with without them noticing.
As soon as the fake world shattered, what appeared in the real world was a terrifyingly menacing shark whose enormous body was just a few inches from them and whose rows of teeth were opened for that deadly bite.
Of the 2 soldiers, one was still some inches further away but the other was now extremely close to this enormous Great White Shark.
The shark's teeth were already covering this soldier's head.
In normal scenarios, due to the sudden nature of the situation, the soldier at the further end would have instinctively retreated to safeguard his life but in the case of these elite soldiers, the situation was completely different.
Whoosh!
Bam!
This Great White Shark was stabbed at the last moment on the face as blood poured out like rain, dying the surrounding water red.
This was when the targeted soldier finally reacted and moved. The shark's teeth grazed his face, injuring him but he still safeguarded his life.
Unlike his companion, he was a magic swordsman.
As soon as he moved to the side with speed, narrowly dodging the shark's fatal blow, he turned back, this time with his sword following as a bright streak of sword light swept through the water with force.
Shing!
The super sharp sword cut through the water, producing a loud crisp sound but the sword only hit an intangible shark that dissipated the next moment.
This was another illusion!
When the first soldier attacked with his spear, that was when Elder Shine retreated. But with his light magic domain, he created a light illusion illustrating the flying blood and that he was still there.
This way, he indeed grazed the soldier's face but he also dodged both of their attacks successfully.
This meticulous set-up was not just to dodge, it was to prepare a platform for an even stronger attack.
"Super Light Battering Ram!"
After the soldiers attacked and realized that it was another illusion, they both immediately decided to retreat to form a proper defense.
Before they could move though, a bright white light suddenly filled their vision that made them close their eyes.
This bright light not only affected their eyes, it scrambled all their surveillance magic devices, and it was also paired with a magic effect that messed with their senses.
They instantly felt dizzy and groggy like they just woke up from a night of sleep.
This was Elder Shine's even more advanced version of the Battering Ram skill. With the 2 soldiers feeling this way, the shark elder received no obstruction at all as she rammed into the 2 soldiers with her enormous body.
Boom!
With a loud sound, the 2 soldiers flew backward into the cave-like kites that had their strings cut. They both coughed out blood due to the disordered nature of their internal system, even some of their bones fractured from the impact.
As soon as the effect disappeared, both soldiers turned around mid-water before rapidly swimming deeper inside the cave. As they moved, their boots released red-hot energy which increased their swimming speed countless times.
They already discovered that their opponent was a purple tier predator, and not just a purple tier predator, a powerhouse of the tier.
While they rapidly swam, the one at the front transmitted into his comm.
"We encountered a purple tier Great White Shark!"
All these happened in less than a minute.
…
Boom!
The illusion that was created by Elder Shine was cracked by the soldiers, but Sebastian and Tonado already received the best opportunity to strike and they did.
The ambush was seamless, the execution was flawless and fast, but the fact remained that their opponents were powerful elite Atlantian soldiers.
Tonado's tongue adaptation attack was so fast that it seemed like a bolt of lightning streaking through the water, but the soldiers were still able to react.
Almost immediately after the tongue lashed out, Lieutenant Lookman raised his free left hand that was not holding a weapon. On his hand was a gauntlet and as soon as he raised it, the gauntlet lit up with a blue light.
The blue light intensified before erecting a glowing energy shield.
After the Lieutenant did it, like the other soldiers could read each other's minds, they did the same thing as 6 other shields lit up in their formation.
Suddenly, all the shields combined together to form a sturdier shield that was circular in shape. This shield covered all the soldiers from the head to toe, covering every loophole in their defense.
This was when Tonado's powerful tongue struck.
Bang!
This was the strike from a purple-tier predator, such a hastily made-up shield was powerful but nearly not powerful enough to stop Tonado's attack.
The shield tore from the middle accompanied by a loud sound. The tongue's attack power was almost depleted after it tore through the combined shield, but the remaining power still propelled it down.
The soldiers all dodged in different directions till the tongue struck. Almost immediately after Tonado retrieved his tongue, the soldiers returned swiftly, quickly restoring their battle formation.
Sebastian's copper lightning rod magic manifestation dropped there.
In earth terms, a lightning rod is a metallic rod, usually copper that protects a structure from lightning damage by intercepting flashes and guiding their current into the ground.
This was the logic that Sebastian used for this attack.
After the Atlantian soldiers broke the first illusion, he came up with this battle strategy and instantly transmitted his plan to Tonado using his sound control magic skill.
Tonado's attack with his tongue adaptation was not mainly to deal damage, but was to separate the soldiers to allow the rod to fall into their midst.
Well, if they didn't separate and rather decided to take it head-on, that was that but now, this was not the case.
After the soldiers discovered the metallic rod magic manifestation and felt no damage done by it, they were confused but common sense still told them to get rid of it.
They instantly decided to throw it away, but Sebastian's Lighting Axe magic manifestation was already before them.
The Axe struck down with Herculean force and as expected, the soldiers erected another shield to protect themselves.
The lightning could not resist, neither could the shield. All the lightning magic was drawn crazily, then they concentrated at the center of the soldier's battle formation. After this, the lightning was finally discharged.
Bzzz! Bzzz!
It was hell!
The concentrated lightning was so terrifying that all the soldiers, including the Lieutenant, were affected. Their weapon and gears were originally made lightning resistant, but this one was too much.
The terror was to the extent that the lightning literally started evaporating their blood. From the normal damage of the Lightning Axe magic manifestation originally, the damage was amplified several folds to a horrifying level.
All the soldiers jerked while spasming like convicts that were sentenced to death by execution, all of them turned pale in just a few seconds like all blood was drained from them.
The lightning died down after 10 seconds.
After this, the pale soldiers looked at the enormous Megalodon while gritting their teeth to hide their horror at what just happened, while Sebastian glared back at them as a wide grin spread across his face.
