Chapter 145 - A Fierce Battle!



Seeing the strange but memory familiar sight before them, the sharks were shocked. They had a million unanswered questions in their minds that they didn\'t even have the privilege to ask now, not to talk of being answered.

Before the sharks could organize themselves further, without hesitation, the 2 Atlantian soldiers already shot their guns after aiming carefully. Their speed from aiming to shooting showed that they were experts with their weapons.

The next moment, what seemed like mechanical harpoons with a green mixed with red glow covering it suddenly rushed out through the muzzle of the gun. 

The water rippled as the trail left behind by the harpoons was tainted with an even darker green shade, thickening that which was already being released by the region\'s magic essence.

Through their electroreceptors, the 13 Great White Sharks were all able to see the tiniest of actions made by the 2 Atlantians and they saw when they made the tiny action to pull the trigger.

Without hesitation, they activated their magic shields.

Surprisingly, despite the number of targets in the water, the 2 Atlantian soldiers both focused on one target. 

Bam! Bam!

As soon as the first harpoon came into contact with the shark\'s shield, the red glow enveloping the harpoon was released, tainting the magic shield and leaving only the green glow behind.

In less than 2 seconds after the red glow was released from the harpoon into the shield, the magic shield was tainted completely, making it turn dark red.

The impact on the shield was not strong, almost seeming like a pat from the harpoon but the chain reactions after the impact were shocking. 

The shark who was attacked revealed a shocked expression the next moment. It strained its face like it was exerting effort to do something, but it clearly didn\'t work as the strangest of things happened next.

Despite the soft impact, the magic shield shattered!

Pop!

The magic shield shattered so easily in such a strange and spooky manner that it was like a vampire shattering before silver.

Before the other sharks could express their shock, the other harpoon which seemed to have been held back by some kind of energy originally was suddenly released as it accelerated.

Shocked and defenseless, the target shark was unable to react as the sharp harpoon dug into its body with force. In the process, the last glow which was the green in the harpoon was released.

Pure destructive power was suddenly released from the green glow which invaded the shark\'s body, spreading tyrannical power as all this power exploded from within the shark\'s body.

The shark let out a sound of pain as a part of its body exploded, spreading a part of the green glow which now seemed like a deadly poison from its body.

In the process, red blood dyed the seawater red.

"Magma!" One of the other sharks called out in surprise and anger.

All the sharks were shocked, never has one of them been injured so severely and so easily except when they went against purple tier monsters which was an extremely rare occurrence.

The Atlantian soldiers were clearly ready to take advantage of their shocked state, or more like they were trained to take advantage of monster\'s shocked states as they attacked again.

They aimed and shot again, once again at the same shark who they already injured severely. But this time, someone intervened.

Tungsten rushed into the path of the harpoons with speed.

At this moment of truth, this enormous shark showed why he was the leader of this hunting team as his glowing pure white eyes glowed even fiercer which represented a spike in activity of his pool of magic power.

In response to this spike, his demon-like horn adaptation at his forehead was enveloped by a pure white light-induced by his light magic.

He accelerated having timed it as the glowing horn collided with the first harpoon, knocking it off course which told him his answer that these harpoons\' force was in no way soft.

It was like he collided against a Mammoth, but he did not back down.

For the last harpoon, a white glowing vortex suddenly appeared beside him which swallowed the harpoon whole. Grinding sounds reverberated as particles of the mechanical harpoon were released from the vortex less than a second later.

"Fight!" Having stopped the 2 harpoons, Tungsten finally growled his order as he took the lead into the battle.

The sharks finally recovered from their shock, feeling a little ashamed that they felt it in the first place. The fact that they were meeting their first real Atlantians just left them feeling unreal.

They may have been shocked originally, but after recovering, they quickly showed why they were members of the Gigantic White hunting team.

Like a specially-trained unit of soldiers, all 12 sharks arranged themselves behind Tungsten as they charged towards the mini-submarine.

The 2 water domain magicians in the team worked together as they erected a huge defense water wall as a shield which followed them as they charged forward. For the offensive domain shark magicians, they prepared for battle.

Surprisingly, despite seeing over a dozen sharks charging towards them, the mini-submarine nor its inhabitants showed much of a reaction to the mobilization.

Seeing this, the sharks did not give a damn, they only felt relieved and more pumped for battle. With Tungsten taking the lead again, they each gathered their magic power and unleashed their strongest skills.

At the last moment before impact, the mini-submarine suddenly erected a glowing blue energy shield. Before the might of the combined magic skills, the energy shield could not hold but it bought the mini-sub enough time to move.

As smoothly and calmly as before which was a constantly observed trait of the Atlantians already, the mini-submarine accelerated, moving from its previous location before the energy shield finally popped.

The advantage of this to the Atlantians was that the 2 soldiers already marked their targets again. Without hesitation, they pulled the trigger.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

It was supposed to be 2 shot sounds reverberating through the water, but once the sounds of harpoons being shot increased to 3, then to 5, then to 6, Tungsten knew that something was wrong.

All the Great White Sharks instinctively activated their shields, but like before, it didn\'t do much as the shields popped like tofu before hot knife.

8 Harpoons were shot this time, all focusing on only 3 sharks. The first shark which was attacked, Magma suffered again and without prompt reinforcement from his teammates died on the spot.

This alone was even more shocking than when they first saw the Atlantians. From shock, every shark on the battlefield soon felt anger as their thoughts exploded, practically filling every cell of their brains with a sense of vengeance.

While feeling the need to avenge their brother, they were still intelligent and wary enough to try deducing why the Atlantians shot 8 of those weapons instead of 2 this time.

This was when they noticed the newcomers. The 2 Atlantian soldiers on the first mini-submarine shot only 2 harpoons like usual, but in the frenzy, the sharks failed to detect on time the emergence of 3 other mini-submarines.

Boom!

A second volley of harpoons came from the 4 mini-submarines.

This time, having learned their lesson, neither Tungsten nor the other sharks activated their magic shields. They separated and charged forward, towards each of the 4 mini-submarines.

Of course, they were injured by the harpoons, but they continued forward.

Seeing this, the Atlantians suddenly changed their modus operandi as the 2 Atlantian soldiers manning each mini-sub went back in. Then the mini-sub revealed hidden weapon ports as they all aimed at the sharks.

Tu! Tu! Tu! Tu!

Bullets shot out rapidly from the gun muzzles aiming at the sharks, but this did not stop the sharks completely as they persevered, continuing forward until they collided against the mini-subs.

Boom!

A fierce battle erupted immediately.

A few minutes later, 4 sharks lay dead on the battlefield while the remaining 9 survivors all already sustained severe injuries from the Atlantians.

Their decision to stand was not stupid and without fruits though. Despite being battered, they succeeded in damaging all 4 mini-subs to dangerous degrees and one of them already stopped working entirely.

The reason why the battle stopped was that another newcomer entered the battlefield, a newcomer whose presence alone was capable of stopping the warriors of both sides.

This burly Atlantian soldier was geared in silver and black armor, the helmet which only covered part of his face enabled the warriors from both sides to see his face and they had different reactions to it.

On his hands was a mechanical trident which was clearly also a magic weapon due to the magic fluctuations emitting from it.

"Staff Sergeant Barnes". A sound was transmitted from the 3 still working mini-submarines.

The Sergeant did not answer as his sharp eyes surveyed the battlefield. While he did this, all the sharks were shocked by the fierce magic power presence currently being detected by their electroreceptors.

An injured Tungsten looked on at this scene silently while ignoring his painful injuries as he quickly came to a decision.

"Brod, take the others and leave".

Without waiting for his 2nd in command to respond, Tungsten was covered with a bright light the next moment as he charged towards the strong Atlantian powerhouse that was currently hovering in the water.

Staff Sergeant Barnes did not back down, he also charged towards the shark as he pointed his trident straight at it. They collided the next moment.

Boom!
