Ocean Master

Chapter 223 - A Surprising Welcome.



Sebastian received the warmest reception that he never expected on his return to Old Mak's Shark Clan. His entrance with the 5 biggest and most powerful sharks in the clan made it all the more iconic.

Of course, coming in with him was all that the elders did, without saying a word to him, they acknowledged the greeting from the enthusiastic sharks that saw them before going to each of their chambers in the cave.

With this, Sebastian was quickly left with the 2 most enthusiastic members of his shark hunting team. And they gave him some surprising piece of news.

Surprisingly, despite his absence for over a month, Verni and Tosh were able to keep the dream of the Ultimate Dissectors team alive. Sebastian was seriously shocked on hearing this.

The focal reason that led to the shark hunting team surviving was the astonishingly successful first hunt that they experienced under the leadership of their powerful team leader.

Despite the number of sharks that died in the hunting mission, despite the fact that even the leader of the hunting team went missing, and despite all the mischief that was wrath by Sebastian's bad luck, the fact was indisputable that the gains from the hunting mission were massive.

The gains overshadowed the losses by a mile.

The success that was accomplished by this randomly matched-up team of sharks that was originally looked down on by other sharks broke a record that even the strongest of hunting teams in the clan could not achieve yet.

Killing hundreds of orange tier predators, thousands of white tier and lower-tiered predators, and 2 purple tier predators in a hunting team that neither had a shark elder nor the clan head in it was a legendary feat.

This was why the hype brought by this successful hunt was so shockingly massive and was also one of the main reasons why Tosh and Verni were able to maintain the hunting team.

When this success was combined with the huge propaganda mission that Sebastian engaged in before he went for the hunt, the number of sharks in the hunting team exploded upwards like a floating balloon.

Though he went missing for over a month, the success that he accomplished with the hunting mission already placed him as a rising shark legend in the clan who was already at the level of Tungsten and the other prodigies.

Another fact of this successful hunt was that anywhere there was a successful hunt, there were shark points.

All the team members of the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team benefited tangibly due to the successful hunt in shark points.

This point was what made Sebastian's joy explode to the peak. The other sharks in the Ultimate Dissectors hunting team already collected their shark points, and surprisingly, Sebastian's quota of shark points was stored for him.

When Sebastian first heard this, he at first felt that his hearing was getting worse due to the unbelievable situation but after coming to terms with it, his heart grew even more peaceful.

Money brings peace, at this moment of truth, Sebastian was able to comprehend the truth behind this saying. 

Without hesitation, he had his 2 companions take him in the direction of the Mission/Reward Hall.

"Sebastian, you survived?"

"…"

Sebastian had a weird look on his face as he faced the hall master of the Mission/Reward Hall, why was everyone asking him that?

"Umm, haha, yes, I survived. Long time no see, hall master Nanga".

The elderly shark laughed loudly which at this moment simply sounded like the sound made by 2 metals rubbing against each other. "My boy, it's relieving that you survived, it feels good to see you again".

"He's lying".

"Huh?" Sebastian turned to face Tosh who said that with a questioning look on his face. Tosh didn't shrink under his glare though; the shark simply did a sharky shrug before whispering to him.

"He's been secretly celebrating for one month ago when you disappeared. There's a rule that if a shark fails in collecting his shark points for 3 months, the shark points automatically belong to the clan head".

"And if the clan head can't take it in one month which is plausible since the clan head already has an abundance of them, the hall master is permitted to take the said shark points for himself".

"…" Sebastian was dumbfounded.

On the other hand, the elderly shark glared at the mischievous Tosh and laughed again awkwardly. "Ok, Sebastian, what brings you to my hall today?"

"Oh, about that, I just want to check my shark points value and also the shark points record of the hunting team that I created".

"Ok, Sebastian, there you go".

Nanga swiftly went through the motions as a soft sound reverberated the next moment to indicate that the machine was done.

Ding!

[Individual Section.]

[User: Sebastian.]

[Personal Shark Point Value: 11,320.]

[Group Section.]

[Ultimate Dissectors Hunting team tab.]

[1st hunt's shark point value: 1390.]

[2nd hunt's shark point value: 54,935.]

"Bingo!"

Sebastian reacted fast enough as he backed his words with another human hands magic manifestation that directed a thump up at Nanga.

"Sh*t! This feels so damn good!" Sebastian yelled in his mind as memories of his glorious campaign with his buddies in his hunting team came back to his mind.

Despite the dangerous circumstances that followed, the results of the hunting mission were worth being proud of.

The comparison between the results of his first hunt and the massive results of the second hunt showed how successful he was.

And during this period, the hunting team already ballooned in size again, now harboring 8 new sharks with 5 of them being orange tier sharks and only 3 being white tier sharks. 

This was a huge improvement compared to the previous recruitment attempt that he put so much effort in. 

With this, he finally compiled the necessary shark points that were equivalent in value to the meat of a purple-tier predator.

-->1 white tier predator= 5 Shark points.

-->1 orange tier predator= 10 Shark points.

-->1 purple tier predator= 500 Shark points.

The difference was massive, but considering the considerable difference in strength between predators of both tiers, this was not too illogical. 

Sebastian felt happy and satisfied.

Work towards perfection and success would run after you, this was one of his core values and was also reflected in his current success with his hunting team. 

Well, with all these, he could say that they did conquer the clan, even if it was not the world yet it meant something so he didn't lie to his team members.

Also, with so many shark points in hand, he could do a lot of things in the shark clan that he could not do before.

Thinking of the countless possibilities made him excited.

Despite all his excitement, he succeeded in calming his mind down because this was not his ultimate goal, his ultimate goal was the unique skill.

And to get this unique skill, he needed to plan.

"Verni, I want the both of you to go gather all the team members of our hunting team outside. Tell them that the team leader is back and that he wants to have a word with them".

"You're not going with us? What are you doing? Besides, you haven't told us how you survived, when will you tell us?"

"I…" Sebastian tried to explain but he was interrupted by the blabbering Tosh who talked non-stop but never listened.

"You stayed outside for over a month, I believe you must have enjoyed a lot of thrilling adventures, when are you going to tell us about it?"

"Also, you…"

Sebastian closed his eyes, smoke seemed to be coming out of his head at this moment. When he opened his eyes again, they were blazing red with fire.

"TOSH!!!"
