After escaping from the Crocodile Kingdom, while healing himself with his rejuvenation skill, a lot of thoughts went through Sebastian's mind.

After the numerous battle encounters that he already experienced since transmigrating into this world, he understood a pattern. How highly leveled battle skills were affected battle situations a lot.

A fish who still had its bite skill at the first tier, and another fish of the same level whose bite skill already leveled up to the second tier could exert different power levels in a battle.

During his observation of the alpha Crocodile, one thing that was apparent to him was the heavy and dangerously veteran vibe that it exuded.

He guessed that this was because of how highly leveled its skills were. Even if they were of the same level, he was pretty sure that the bite of the alpha Crocodile was countless times deadlier than his.

Just imagining its deadly teeth left him shuddering in fear and excitement.

Another fact that he observed was that his shredding bite skill was clearly insufficient when placed against the thick skin of the Crocodiles.

He's never really thought much about it as most of his enemies were easily resolved after a few bites and attacks, but the thick skin of the Crocodiles brought him to this cruel fact.

He didn't have a bite skill that was purely offensive enough, the shredding bite skill was still in the end focused more on shredding through the shake of his body after biting.

He put purchasing a more offensive biting skill on his list of to get skills from the system store in the future. He already checked it, but there was no offensive skill right now so he could only wait patiently.

After observing it for the past few days, he already vaguely understood the pattern of the main system store.

It had a huge list of different skills, and they reset every few days. So, to access what he wanted, he had to pay attention to it always to be alerted when what he was looking for came.

It was just like a lottery wheel with a slightly different mechanism.

Though the current him could be said to be powerful, he was clearly not powerful enough to take the alpha Crocodile on. Adding its family was just a perfect scenario of him courting death.

He was not frustrated by this though; the hard challenge only ignited the competitive spirit in him.

The fact that he has not leveled up despite all the prey that he has killed for the past few days did not escape his notice, this was the reason why he set his sight on the powerful Crocodile family.

He knew that to successfully attack the Croc family, he needed a plan and that was what he would be focused on drafting for the next few days. He would also use this time to level up his skills.

With such a thought in mind, he turned, activated his triple reverse swim skill, and swam farther away from the Crocodile Kingdom.

He swam far away before finding a nice place to spend the night, he would continue his hunting and planning the next day.

He didn't know how long the preparation would take, but he was ready to give his all for it and get to an optimum state before attacking.

..

1 month later, Sebastian pursued a family of 8 Giant Shrimps that were trying their best to escape his tight pursuit.

[You have activated skill: Magic Teeth.]

[You have activated skill: Sound Reflection.]

Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu!

As the sharp flying teeth embedded themselves inside the body of the poor Shrimps, the sound-induced by them was reflected by Sebastian's skill, dealing even more damage to the Shrimps.

The sound produced by the reflection skill stunned them for a moment, granting Sebastian the perfect opportunity to close the distance.historical

[You have activated skill: Battering Ram.]

[You have activated skill: Spike Attack.]

Boom!

His enormous body collided into them like a train, dealing astronomical damage while his spikes dealt even more additional damage in the process.

[You have killed a Giant Shrimp- Level 12: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 6 Skill points and 5 Adaptation points.]

[You have killed a Giant Shrimp- Level 11: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained..]

Seeing 2 of their comrades die before them, the Giant Shrimps overcame their fear as they turned angrily to retaliate against this predator.

Before they could attack, Sebastian activated his shredding bite skill and bit at the nearest Giant Shrimp. With a few pulls and drags of his teeth, he tore the poor fellow apart, ending its life.

Sizzle!

The water evaporated slightly as the Shrimps released fire magic lines from their pair of legs. Compared to other predators, their fire magic was less powerful but it was still deadly to any opponent.

Already expecting it, Sebastian pushed through it nonchalantly after activating his magic shield. With that, he easily closed the distance, which meant death to the less powerful Shrimps.

Crunch!

He started a massacre, and in a few minutes, his teeth shredded them apart.

[You have killed 6 Giant Shrimp- {Level 11-14}: You have gained Experience.]

[You have gained 42 Skill points and 30 Adaptation points.]

"Yes!" Sebastian cheered happily as he quickly went closer to chomp down on the crispy meat of the 8 Shrimps.

Just like in his previous world, Shrimps were also super delicious in Oceania, easily taking them to his top 3 ranking of most delicious prey.

As he chomped down on the food, his system lit up a notification.

[Your Spike Attack Skill has leveled up to Level 5: Automatically switching to advanced version of the skill.]

[Switch to advanced version of Spike Attack skill failed.]

Seeing this, Sebastian was not too surprised as he didn't purchase an advanced version of the skill during his evolution. Despite this, he was glad as his last skill finally leveled past the first tier.

For the past 1 month, amid his planning on how to kill the Crocodiles, his focus was mostly on hunting to level his skills, and his hard work paid off.

Before he checked his status, following his routine, he checked the main system store to try his luck if any badass skill appeared.

This time, on checking he was given a surprise.

[New Skill has been detected!]

[Crushing Bite!]
