The news came like a bombshell, hitting all the Great White Sharks in the shark clan with a force that left them shuddering from non-existent cold.

When the 5 main pillars of the shark clan all rushed out of the cave at the same time, the other sharks were left panicking. But when they finally returned, the news that they returned with left the sharks even more stunned.

Each of the news that followed was more impactful and shocking than the last, leaving the sharks mindlessly blasting with their electroreceptors to confirm that they were not hallucinating.

The Gigantic White hunting team which was the face of the shark clan suffered an attack. 4 Sharks died on the spot, another died due to severe bleeding while escaping, and 3 were captured.

Of the 12 Great White Sharks of the Gigantic White hunting team, only 4 escaped with their own ability after suffering the attack from the Atlantians.

Yes, Atlantians came and were now on the cliff together with them.

Lastly, the face of the youngsters, Tungsten who was the leader of the Gigantic White hunting team suffered an injury that left him at the point of death. He survived only after being saved personally by the clan head and elders.

For hours after this shocking news arrived, the shark clan was thrown into a commotion as every mature shark analyzed these so-called Atlantians from their own point of view and imagination.

One thing that should be noted was that the Gigantic White hunting team was not just the strongest hunting team of the clan, the members forming it was also the best and strongest sharks of the clan.

The fact that they suffered such a tragic ending from encountering Atlantians was what really left these sharks shuddering in fear.

The fact that they still haven\'t recovered from their injuries despite being personally healed by Queen Heareth only added more dread to the news. Now, they were all admitted to the healing chamber.

The shark clan was in a frenzy. At this moment, their impression of the Atlantians was invisible, indomitable, ruthless, and unfathomably powerful.

This was detrimental to morale in the clan but Old Mak didn\'t suppress the spread of the news. He may be an intelligent shark, but neither he nor the other sharks had a clue about politics and its rules.

Inside the main staying chamber of the cave, amid the intense reaction from the other sharks, Sebastian hovered, also reacting to the news.

In his mind, he was still a stranger to this world but after spending some time together with Tungsten, he knew that hearing of the shark\'s sudden death would have been traumatizing. He felt relieved at the timely intervention.

Putting this aside, his focus went to the main part of this news, Atlantians!

For long, Sebastian had heard of Atlantians from his system. He\'s encountered places that were stepped on by Atlantians, the experiment ground, and the region he recently passed through with his team members.

Also, he\'s heard of Atlantians from Old Mak. 

All this while, while hearing about it, he never paid much attention to it because it always seemed far from him. But now, knowing that this thing that seemed far suddenly came near left his heart skipping a beat.

The first thing that came to his mind was the metal shark. Was it really related to Atlantians? Did this mean that Atlantis already grasped the secrets to creating life like he speculated?

Putting this aside, he went to the second thing that came to his mind which was that these Atlantians came for him.

Perhaps, it was paranoia, but this speculation came suddenly.

Before now, in almost all his battle encounters, though some were close, he always came out victorious with the help of his system, making him seem OP and indomitable but he knew that this was far from the truth.

In the encounter against Octumpedam, if he got so arrogant and decided to start the war himself, he was pretty sure that he would have never met Octumpedam even with the help of his system.

The alpha Croc and the Mystery Pryer Crocodile alone would have f*cked him up, turning him into shark soup.

Now that his possible opponent was Atlantis itself, he felt fear engulf his heart. He didn\'t know if his speculation was true, but his hyperactive brain never rested as it brought evidence to him.

From his understanding of Sea Kings, their fearsome power meant that they would always be the main target of attack from Atlantis.

So, basically from this, Sea Kings and Atlantians were archenemies.

If this was true, then won\'t that mean that the Atlantians would do anything in their power to kill a young budding Sea King if they somehow found out about his existence?

Sebastian shuddered at the thought. "Oh boy! I\'m f*cked!"

He may be wrong, and this may just be a ridiculous conspiracy theory but Sebastian did not care as this concerned his life. He already confirmed with his system once that dying here meant dying, no third life for him.

Immediately, a lot of thoughts surged into his mind, plaguing him with the dilemma of which to start with.

Should he directly start his evolution first? Or should he go forward with his department creation plan first? Or should he flee from this region completely?

As the thoughts rapidly surged through his mind, almost making it seem like his brain would explode, he quickly came to a decision. He decided to go for stability rather than to take a rash step that he may regret in the future.

His decision was to go meet Elder Marble, he wanted to create his anatomy department first. Every other thing was ignored, he followed the rule of his second love, emphasizing the more important one first.

In the future, if the need came, he could attend to the others.

The only problem now was how to secure a meeting with the elder, and at a time like this when the clan just suffered a setback.

As he didn\'t have any special plans, he could only bite the bullet and go straight to the elder\'s special chamber.

"This is a restricted territory, what are you doing here?" As soon as Sebastian got there, he was blocked by one of the earth domain shark magicians acting as guards to the elder\'s chamber.

"I\'m here to plead for an audience with the elder".

"The elder is…" Amid the guard shark replying, a voice reverberated from deep inside the demarcated cave chamber out.

"Let him in".
