Ocean Master - Chapter 356

“Let’s leave immediately, the gains are not worth the danger!”

The leader of the sharks from the Triton clan, Omega, reacted immediately once he properly understood what they threw themselves in.

Monster inheritances could be described as fortuitous encounters, but this was only to predators that were either ready to give their life for that opportunity to gain power, or to those predators who had absolute belief in their power.

The lineup of the allied Great White Sharks was fairly powerful, but the rational Omega easily calculated that the odds were against them on this one.

The tests to pass to gain benefits from the inheritance ground were already a danger on their own. The fact that they had no purple tier predators in their group at the moment, while their competitors had tipped this scale further.

The Triton clan was not the only predator clan to get the information, a lot of other powerful clans did, with some even getting more detailed information which meant that they understood more about the inheritance ground.

Not only did these predators get to plan more to enter the inheritance ground, but they could also prepare for things to expect inside.

As for the allied group of the Triton and Firelight Shark clans, they knew too little and had a less powerful overall force, their chances of getting in and out, surviving, and gaining massive benefits was too low.

This was why the powerful orange tier Great White Shark easily decided that it was better if they left, but someone thought otherwise.

“You can go, but I am not leaving!”

“Huh?” Omega turned to face his counterpart. “Strong?”

“Yes”.

Strong’s especially muscly body and the fact that he was a shark prevented him from revealing emotions through facial expression and body movement appropriately, but his emotions could still be felt in his tone.

“You are right”. He turned to speak to Omega, his voice booming with power and unquestionable conviction. “The danger here is considerable, the gains are obviously not worth the danger, I recognize that”.

“To prevent unnecessary losses, the most rational choice is for all of us to leave and safeguard our lives. I’m completely in with it, I’ll order my soldiers to leave also, but for me, I’m not leaving”.

The Great White Shark, Omega did not speak, his look already revealed the questions that were in his mind.

Strong did not keep him waiting for long, he answered his questions.

“Omega, I got tired of staying in the background all the time. I got tired of playing to the book and living without purpose all the time”.

“My clan is at its weakest point since I was given birth to, and though I don’t know if I could have made a difference, I still feel guilty for not giving a 150% effort when my clan needed it the most”.

“I won’t do the same in the Firelight Shark Clan”.

“My former clan head, my elders, they all put a lot of hope in me and my potential, that was why they recognized me among the trio of young shark geniuses but unlike the others, I failed to impress when it mattered the most”.

“I don’t want a repeat if we a plagued with a similar situation”.

“I want to do more this time; I want to give more than 100% this time”.

“This inheritance, this inheritance to you may not mean much, the gains to you are obviously not worth the danger but to me, it is completely worth it”.

“For over the past month, I have been thinking on ways to provide more to the clan and the best way to do it that I could think of was by evolving to become a purple tier predator, just like my clan head”.

“With an additional purple tier predator, the foundation of the clan would be firmer and the young sharks would have another role model to look up to”.

“This inheritance ground is like the perfect opportunity for me to fulfill my new dream, it is the perfect stage to prove myself and validate my life goals so nothing can stop me, not even you”.

“No matter what you say, my decision is set”.

“The only thing I can ask of you is to help lead my soldiers to safety”.

Omega gave Strong a long and deep look. “I understand”.

The massive Great White Shark turned to face the shark soldiers. “You heard your commander, all of you are to follow me out, now!”

None of the sharks acted defiantly, they all recognized the danger, even those of the Firelight Shark Clan obeyed since they knew that the best way for them to help their start-up clan was to stay alive.

They were not like Strong who was already at the peak of the orange tier realm and only needed a slight nudge to break through the threshold.

They could only give their best wishes to Commander Strong and escape.

Once the sharks left him alone in the cave, facing the aggression of predator groups from all sides, instead of feeling pressured, Strong felt at home.

Unlike Tungsten who was a light domain magician, and Torpedum who was a rare space domain magician, he was no magician, he could not perform miracles with a snap of his fingers, he learned the hard way to do everything with his teeth.

He was a shark who took the rare Pugilist evolution route.

Pugilists were known for one fact, they were not mages who could solve things with intelligence from a distance, they loved taking things close and personal, they loved frontal confrontation.

And in this inheritance ground setting, the perfect stage for a frontal confrontation to test Strong’s limits was provided to him.

Unlike the Sea King inheritance ground where he had the privilege to enter a few months ago, this one was less extravagant but it felt closer to him, he felt more at home in this inheritance ground setting.

He grinned. “Bring it on!”

The inheritance tests officially started!
