Chapter 59 - Young Megalodon!
When Sebastian\'s eyes regained their focus, he was already in the rainbow-colored world filled with clouds. Less than a second later, words from the system were projected before him in the skies.
[Host\'s evolution process has started. You have only 30 minutes to contemplate and make the choices that you want for your evolution route.]
[Due to your having reached the threshold of Level 10, you have unlocked a unique clue from the system.]
[Your authority level with the system has gone up a grade.]
[Your remaining evolution time- 29: 54.]
[Make your choices.]
Already experienced with this, Sebastian calmly demanded. "System, give me my options".
[Affirmative! Evolution system store has been actively accessed.]
[As host has evolved from the young stage of a great white shark, you no longer have the option of switching to another shark species.]
[Host evolution options are as follows:]
- Mature Great White- Shark.
- Mystery Pryer Great White- Shark.
- Sabertoothed Great White- Shark.
- Vampire Great White- Shark.
- [Special] Young Megalodon.
- [Special] Great White Shark- Mana Lord.
- [Special] Great White Shark- Pugilist King.
[Warning! Taking the Pugilist King evolution route will destroy your magic organ. In reciprocation, you will gain extremely fierce close combat prowess.]
[Host should choose any of the above options to decide on a personalized evolution route.]
[Host skill options for current evolution route: Shredding Bite; Triple Reverse Swim; Advanced Dash; Empowered Dorsal Fin; Empowered Tail Fin; Advanced Electroreceptors; Battering Ram; Magic Teeth; Spike Attack.]
[Host Adaptation options for current evolution route: Spikes, Hard Dense Skin, Vampire Teeth, Mana Conductor Coating, Magic Organ.]
"A Megalodon! A freaking real Megalodon?!"
Sebastian was shocked at first before he felt a sense of euphoria envelope his heart. He guessed at it already before but really seeing an option for it left him feeling giddy and surprised.
All the evolution options this time were far more varied, mysterious, and badass than his first evolution.
He didn\'t know the reason for such a huge disparity, his best guess was that it was because he was now a mature Great White shark if he evolved.
He wanted to dance in joy due to this discovery right now, but he forced himself to calm down. At the back of his mind, he cautioned himself that his evolution was being timed.
Just like the last time, he decided to check his current attributes first. "System, show me my status".
[Affirmative!]

[Species: Teenage Great White- Shark]
----------------------------
Seeing this, Sebastian refreshed his brain with the actual attribute stats again. He wanted to compare it with his post-evolution stats, and he wanted to also see his hard work.
After a lot of grinding on his part, almost all his skills already leveled up to the 2nd tier, only the sharp dorsal fin was left.
Before he accessed the evolution store for new skills and adaptations, the first thing that he wanted was the sweet magic organ.
"System, give me the magic organ". He demanded.
[Affirmative!]
[Magic mutation organ.]
[Magic type: Material or External. Cost: 170 Adaptation points.]
[As host already has the physical magic type, it is no longer available in the system evolution store.]
Without any hesitation, Sebastian gave his consent to purchase the skill. After his conquest in this ocean, he already amassed so much skill and adaptation point that 170 was not that big anymore.
[You have purchased an Adaptation: Magic organ- Material.]
[You have unlocked the magic domain.]
[Magic domain types that are currently available to host: Fire, Ice, Lightning, Wind, Corrosion, Sound, Earth, and Curse.]
Seeing this, Sebastian was once again amazed by the variety. He expected to see more options to widen his horizons, but he was satisfied with what he saw.
Now came the dilemma. "Which should I choose?"
He wanted to do a deep analysis, but the roasted problem of time reared its head again. After deliberating for 2 minutes, he gritted his teeth and decided on the magic power that he felt had more affinity to him.
"I choose the Sound magic".
[Host\'s choice has been recorded.]
As soon as the system said this, it revealed what seemed like a slide, and Sebastian finally got access to all the skills and adaptations available to him.
This time, he was almost blinded by the outrageous number of options that were available to him. For his teeth alone, he saw over a dozen different skills that he could take to complement his Shredding bite skill and Vampire teeth adaptation.
He really felt an urge to carefully go through everything, but he could not as he was being timed. He didn\'t just choose like his last evolution also; he already had some targets in mind before the evolution started.
He first checked to see if options for the skills that he recognized used by his father in the Dragon battle were here. He was elated as he found some, then he combined these with the ideas that he already had.
He was not stingy; he spent his skill and adaptation points to get them.
[You have purchased skills: Rejuvenation, Cardiac Sphincter Constrictor, Ultra-range Electroreceptors, Magic Shield, Sound Control, Sonic Drill, Sonic Reflection, Sonic Dissonance, Water Cyclone, Supersonic Speed.]
[You have purchased adaptation: Damage Reflection Skin coating, Camouflage organ, Sound Magic domain.]
After doing all this, Sebastian finally heaved a sigh of relief. He wanted to do some more purchases, but unfortunately, his points were exhausted.
Despite this, he was satisfied with what he got.
He checked the time again out of cautiousness, then he relaxed. Without even needing to contemplate it, he decided on his main evolution route.
[You have chosen your evolution route: Young Megalodon!]
[Would you like to confirm your choices?]
"Yes".
His vision darkened immediately, then his evolution began.
