After going out of the seamount, Sebastian and the 6 sharks experienced a strange phenomenon that originally left him feeling confused but he quickly understood after rationalizing it. 

The commotion caused by not only the war between the Draconic Lizards and Mammoth Crocodiles led by him but the ultimate battle against Octumpedam would have been a farce if no other predators were attracted to it.

Not talking about other creatures first, back on earth, Sebastian knew that even a drop of blood in liters of water could be detected by a Great White from kilometers away which was already OP enough.

Now, pairing that with magic, if they had a specific skill for it, it would be as easy as eating beans for them to pinpoint the location of the commotion.

This was the catalyst for the current convergence of predators.

For hours, perhaps for some even over a day already they\'ve been rushing towards this seamount that has been submerged with fresh blood.

The seamount was already filled with predators before Sebastian\'s party left but even more of them kept coming as they swam upwards which presented the hunting feast for them.

Even in this world of fire, the lineup that they had was close to the top in terms of power alone so, in this monster rush, they were among the predators rather than the prey.

And clearly, seals were a favorite meal to the Great White Sharks accompanying him just like on earth, Sebastian also loved the taste from the first bite alone which warranted their targeted hunting.

Amid the chaos caused by so many monsters converging, they still found space to specifically hunt the delicious Seals.

Rarh! Roar! Wooh!

As the predators roared ferociously, so also did they suffer it.

[You have activated skill: Sound Reflection.]

Boom!

[You have killed a mutated Seal- Level 11: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 4 Skill points and 5 Adaptation points.]

[You have killed a Seal- Level 4: ???]

[You have gained nothing.]

"…"

Amid the hunt, Sebastian who was paying attention to his system notifications and enjoying the prompts as his skill and adaptation points increased froze on seeing this.

He was almost bitten because of it but Verni covered for him.

His surprise didn\'t last long though because, at some point in time as he leveled and evolved, he already expected a situation like this but he didn\'t expect it to come so fast.

"Sigh, I suddenly feel so old". 

This didn\'t linger in his mind though because the sweet aftertaste of the Seals still dominated, he wanted more.

[You have activated skill: Crushing Bite!]

Crunch!

Raar!

Crunch!

[You have killed a mutated Seal…]

"Seba bro, you\'re so awesome at biting, which skill did you learn?"

"Tosh! Watch out!"

"Don\'t worry, I\'m completely fine…, Ouch!"

For the first time in a while, Sebastian was content with not taking the lead. Tungsten took the lead this time, he didn\'t even need to use his domain magic as he bulldozed his way through the prey before them.

All the other sharks were below him, biting left and right savagely and tearing prey apart as they continued their journey upwards.

This continued for minutes until the group met their first rival enemy, they met a group of hunting Orcas for the first time. The 5 terrifying Orcas hunted together, having the feast of their life amid this rush.

At first, when he saw them, Sebastian thought of the monthly target of his system but considering that they were 5, he gave up.

If he decided to go all out, they could perhaps win the battle but it wasn\'t worth it for some adaptation points even if it was a thousand adaptation points.

At some point in life, after all the thrills of going all out in almost every battle, it was nice to chill and relax to recover from it all.

When both parties saw each other, none attacked, they simply made threatening sounds at each other before going their own ways.

Of course, Tosh tried to ridicule Tungsten for the decision, implying that he was a coward for escaping so shamelessly but a tail fin spanking from the bigger shark shut him up.

Together, they swam and fought alongside each other for hours in the rush as they feasted until their tummies were bloated.

Also, Sebastian completed his daily mission target.

[You have killed a mutated Yeti Crab- Level 17: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 11 Skill points and 10 Adaptation points.]

[Congratulations! You have completed your system daily target- Kill and eat 20 Yeti Crabs.]

[You have been rewarded with 50 Adaptation points.]

[Remark: Keep working and eating harder, it is the difference between a normal predator and an apex predator candidate.]

[The marks of a true apex predator are specialized hunting skills, a ferocious appetite, and few if any natural predators. In Oceania, the more you eat, the more you get closer to this so eat hard for it.]

Sebastian didn\'t have anything to comment on this, it was phrased weirdly by the system but overall, it was correct.

It took them a few hours before they finally left the region dominated by the monster rush. By then, every shark in the group was full and satisfied.

With most of the predators around the areas they were passing through already out to hunt for food following the monster rush, they had a smoother journey for the rest parts.

There were no hiccups, everything was smooth sailing, and moved to the plan for the rest parts of the journey until they arrived at the hole in the circular cliff exclusive to the Great White family.

They arrived after traveling for 12 hours according to Sebastian\'s estimate.
