Beast Hack: Customizing Beasts and Capturing Beauties - Chapter 205

Chapter 205: Emperor-Level Talents Revealed

The ancient orb glowed as it revealed the name of Ragnar’s talent. The words glowed as they floated in the air: Volcanic Dragon Emperor.

Bryson was shocked as he gripped the edge of the table as he stared at the words in disbelief. “Volcanic Dragon Emperor… your talent… it’s truly Emperor-level.”

Ragnar smirked as he read the name himself. “Volcanic Dragon Emperor, huh? Not bad. It’s perfect for the Volcanic Dragon Empire.”

Savra sat beside Ragnar and tilted her head slightly as she smirked. “Let me try.”

She stepped forward, placing her hand confidently on the ancient orb. The artifact pulsed again and showed the same color like before.

It also showed the name of Savra’s Emperor-level talent, which was Volcanic Dragon Empress.

She took a step back and read it. “Volcanic Dragon Empress. It’s really a good talent.”

Bryson was in disbelief as he glanced toward Ragnar and Savra. “Two of you? Both of you have Emperor-level talents?”

The elders of the Red Dragon Order—Tarron, Sevrina, Deon, Casey, and Zerath—stood frozen.

They couldn’t believe what they were seeing as they kept staring at the glowing words.

Tarron clenched his fists as he muttered. “The Emperor-level talent… The end goal of our order… They’ve achieved it?”

Sevrina frowned as she exchanged a glance with Casey. “This is what we’ve been striving for and they’ve already reached it.”

Deon shook his head as he muttered, “Unbelievable.”

Lucius sat calmly at the center. He leaned back in his chair as he observed the reactions around the room.

Lucius leaned forward slightly as he addressed Bryson. “So, do you believe me now, Leader Bryson?”

Bryson smirked as he nodded. “Yeah, I believe it now. So, can you show me how you do it?”

Lucius smirked as he opened his mouth to respond. But before he could speak, Ragnar raised his hand to interrupt. “Hold on, Lucius. Before that, I want to ask something.”

Lucius turned to Ragnar and smirked. “What is it, Patriarch Ragnar?”

Ragnar smirked faintly, resting his chin on his hand as he continued. “What’s the difference between Emperor-level talent and King-level talent? I’m curious about it.”

Before Lucius could respond, Bryson let out a laugh. He shook his head as he leaned back in his chair. “Let me explain it to your thick skull.”

Ragnar turned toward Bryson and frowned when he heard that, but kept smiling. “Go ahead then. Show me how smart you are.”

Bryson straightened slightly as he began. “The first difference is cultivation speed.”

“Emperor-level talent allows for significantly faster cultivation compared to King-level talent. You’ll reach higher ranks in far less time.”

He gestured toward Ragnar while tapping lightly against the table. “The second difference is your beast’s potential.”

“With Emperor-level talent, the beasts you tame will grow stronger faster and reach greater heights than those of King-level tamers.”

Bryson continued. “And there’s the fusion rate. When a King-level tamer fuses with their beast, they typically only gain about 80% of the beast’s stats.”

Bryson smirked as he continued. “But for an Emperor-level tamer?” He smirked, leaning forward slightly. “That conversion rate jumps to 200%.”

Ragnar was surprised when he heard the explanation. “200%? That’s…”

“Overwhelming,” Bryson finished his sentence. “And finally, there’s the specialization.”

“Your talent—Volcanic Dragon Emperor—means that the best beasts you can tame will naturally be connected to volcanic dragons. The same goes for Savra’s Volcanic Dragon Empress talent.”

Savra smirked faintly, leaning back in her chair as she processed the information. “So, not just stronger beasts, but beasts tied to our talents. Interesting.”

Lucius chuckled as he gestured toward Bryson. “Well said, Leader Bryson. You’ve summed it up perfectly.”

Ragnar leaned back in his chair and smirked. “I see. If that’s the case, then Emperor-level talent really is on another level.”

Lucius smirked as he turned his gaze back to Bryson. “Now, shall we get back to the matter at hand?”

Bryson nodded as he excitedly leaned forward. “Of course. Let’s proceed.”

Lucius nodded back and smirked. “Okay then, but let me warn you—don’t be too afraid of what you’re about to hear.”

Bryson frowned slightly but nodded. “Just tell me. I am not afraid of anything.”

Lucius smirked as he shifted his focus inward, pulling up his system interface. He quickly scanned his remaining hack points, his smirk fading slightly as he saw the current balance.

[Hack Points: 1,791,079,328 HP]

Lucius sighed as he considered his options. “Each pill requires 100 million hack points. But if I make ten pills, that’s 1 billion points gone… painful, but necessary.”

His smirk returned as an idea began to form in his mind. “Let’s add a little extra to make it interesting.”

He issued the next command to the system. “System, create 7-Star Volcanic Dragon Emperor Talent in pill form, but I want a twist in it.”

“Add a setting where the pills require absorption of large quantities of the user’s blood and flesh before activation. The color must change to black to signal readiness.”

He paused briefly as he added the final touch. “And store them in the pre-prepared vials in the Eternal Vault. Make ten pills in total.”

The system began to create the pills. Lucius leaned back slightly as he waited for it, but still he could feel the sting of the expense. “1 billion points. It’s painful, but worth it.”

He then chuckled as he thought about the reaction the pills would get from them. “These will not only test their resolve but also solidify their loyalty and once it’s done, I’ll demand more materials to absorb later. Fair trade.”

The notification confirming the completion of the process appeared before him and Lucius smirked as he read it. The pills had been safely kept in the vials that had been prepared in his eternal vault.
