Ocean Master

Sebastian officially received his first field mission as an anatomist.

On seeing what was written on top of the box that was sent to him, Sebastian was pretty surprised. He did not expect that his first field anatomy mission would commence just a day after he received his promotion.

After he was promoted, just like before, Miniman came to him to explain the rules and privileges that a senior anatomist worked by.

After the numerous rules and privileges were explained to him, Miniman added another which he called senior anatomists\' duties to the anemone domain.

Becoming a senior anatomist, his pay grade, status, and a lot of other things didn\'t just improve, his importance to the city also increased exponentially.

Just like the experts of other occupations, an anatomy expert had far more importance to a city than what the juniors could.

Sebastian\'s daring experiment that shocked even Doctor Craban herself was proof of the importance that they could bring to the table.

If Sebastian\'s method of integrating a 2nd mana core into a predator became refined enough to be employed on a widescale, simply imagining an army of purple tier clownfish with 2 mana cores was a terrifying spectacle.

Sebastian still had full control over his research direction. As the one who started the research, he understood its nuances and how to progress it best, so the clown higherups were already supporting him from the dark for success.

This support meant that they now held him in higher esteem which translated to expecting more from him. 

Anatomy field missions could be referred to as one of the higher expectations that they had for them. In most situations, 99% if not 100% of predators who make up the army were not intelligent.

All these brawny predators knew was to bite, attack with magic power, and wreak havoc with their beast adaptations, nothing else.

The beast soldiers thought that this was enough for them to dominate any region but the higher-ups who ordered them knew otherwise.

The higher-ups knew that any operation was rife with the prospect of losing every single soldier in it due to a simple mistake in judgment. 

To prevent mistakes in judgment, thereby increasing survivability was why anatomists were introduced.

In small-scale battles, perhaps the effect would not be felt as much but in large-scale battles, well-trained anatomists who studied and knew the internal body structure of countless predators could prove priceless.

If the commander of a beast army who was a purple tier predator was battling against another purple tier predator and were in a stalemate, one deduction from an anatomist could easily break the deadlock.

For example, the anemone domain\'s clownfish soldiers mostly made use of powerful mechs that could wreak a lot of destruction in battle.

In large-scale battles, the field anatomists could participate by analyzing their opponents, identifying the weakest parts of their bodies, and revealing them to the soldiers who could then capitalize on the reveal to wreak havoc.

When the idea of field anatomists was first introduced, a lot of people hated it but the validation from those who used it proved that the decision was right.

Another reason that Sebastian later discovered why he was enlisted as a field anatomist just a day after he was promoted was because of the Elephant which served as his test subject.

The clown army already took custody of the beast and was ready to deplore it in battle. They wanted to determine its overall combat power and prove through battle if 2 mana cores in a single beast were really feasible.

While doing this, the army felt that taking Sebastian along could give him new inspirations once he saw his successful test subject at work.

Once Sebastian heard of this, he made his choice immediately. He was going for this so-called field anatomy mission.

Besides, unlike other anatomists, he was not afraid of danger. He was an anatomist, but he was also a predator whose eyes already saw blood and took lives.

With his choice made, he tore the box open. Inside it was an enormous green vest that seemed stretchable and could stretch to every part of the body.

Without hesitation, Sebastian equipped the green vest.

[Ding! Mechanical Camouflage protective vest has been discovered!]

[Mechanical Camouflage protective vest has been equipped!]

After donning the protective deep-strike vest, Sebastian finally opened and went through the details of the mission that was issued.

Apparently, a normal patrol clownfish army went out to hunt food for the city but they encountered an unusual opposition force.

The patrol army sent a distress signal back to the city, now a reinforcement force was being organized to go rescue the clownfish that were in danger. Field anatomists were requested to make the rescue smoother.

3 senior anatomists were chosen for this job. Senior Anatomist Miniman who was the default leader, accompanied by supporting senior anatomist Jodeheim, and senior anatomist J.C.

On seeing the time that was written on the details sheet, Sebastian\'s face fell. After working throughout the day, he thought that he could get home and get some much-needed rest, he didn\'t expect that he would be leaving soon.

According to the details sheet, the crack reinforcement army would be completely organized in 2 hours. By then, the field anatomists should already report to the launch site inside the factory zone.

Unconventional missions like this were one of the only ways where predators who were not native clownfish could access beyond the working-class zone.

Sebastian was tired, but he still got ready to leave not just because of the thrilling encounter that the rescue would probably be, but also because he wanted to scout the route taken to go inside the factory zone.

According to the description that he read;, the factory zone was where the real magic in this clown city took place.

Core research went on here, and all the gigantic technological marvels that were being paraded by the clownfish army were manufactured here.

Just a glimpse at this zone and Sebastian believed that he would get enough information that could help in his cause to enter the zone of glory.

Sebastian got everything that he needed set, then an hour and 20 minutes later, he left, following a patrol of clownfish soldiers to the factory zone.
