Beast Hack: Customizing Beasts and Capturing Beauties - Chapter 300

Chapter 300: Liora’s Next Mission: Capture SS-Rank Beasts!
Lucius glanced at his system, smirking

“Let’s make things even more convenient…”

With a simple command, he activated a new hack modification.

—

[Hack Initiation: Eternal Vault Expansion]

[Target: Eternal Vault]

[Effect: Modify 10 Slots to be capable of holding and preserving beasts]

[Cost Required: 1,000,000,000 Hack Points]

[Status: Executing…]

As soon as the process finished, Lucius smirked, satisfied.

He turned toward Liora.

“Liora, now that your beast is ready and you are fully prepared… it’s time for you to hunt more SS-Rank beasts.”

Liora’ eyes narrowed. “More SS-Rank beasts?”

Lucius nodded.

“Yes. If you can catch a beast stronger than Vorafang, do it.”

He leaned back, crossing his arms, explaining further.

“The Vorafang you caught before had likely only recently evolved into an SS-Rank. That’s why you could catch it.”

His eyes sharpened.

“Now that you have a beast far beyond that level, you should be able to catch even better ones.”

Liora grinned, cracking her knuckles.

“Heh… Sounds like fun.”

Lucius chuckled.

“I’ve also modified my Eternal Vault.”

Liora raised her eyebrow. “Oh? What did you do this time, Master?”

Lucius smirked. “I turned 10 slots into beast storage.”

Luna, overhearing, whistled. “Whoa. That means we don’t need to worry about cages or special containment methods anymore.”

Lucius nodded.

“Exactly. Now, you can store the beasts you catch immediately. However—”

He raised a finger.

“You can only store one species per slot.”

Liora smirked, understanding his intent.

“So, as long as I catch the same species over and over, only a slot is used?”

Lucius grinned. “That’s right.”

Liora nodded. “Then I’ll go all out. Let’s see how many SS-Rank beasts I can bring back.”

Lucius smirked, then gave his next instruction.

“Also—when it’s almost time, go and attend Beast Castle’s auction.”

Liora paused, tilting her head. “The auction? You want me to just observe?”

Lucius nodded. “I want to know exactly how their auction plays out.”

Liora grinned. “Got it. I’ll attend and see for myself.”

Before she could say anything else, Loreia casually stepped in, flipping through her phone.

“Don’t worry. I’ve already taken care of the registration.”

Luna and Liora looked at her in surprise.

Lucius raised his eyebrow. “Oh? You already registered?”

Loreia smirked, shrugging.

“Of course. I registered with a different name. If they’re expecting someone from Luxoria Castle, they won’t find me.”

Luna grinned. “Damn, big sis. You really think ahead.”

Loreia smirked. “Well, someone has to keep things running smoothly.”

Lucius chuckled, satisfied.

“Good. Then everything is set. Liora, go and hunt. Loreia, prepare for the auction. Luna, keep an eye on Beast Castle’s movements.”

Liora nodded, her flames flickering in excitement.

“I’ll be back with beasts you’ve never seen before.”

Without wasting another second, she turned and left, her form blurring into speed as she dashed toward the wild.

Leon, now fully elemental, had already transformed into Liora’s clothes, his flames woven seamlessly into her battle attire.

Lucius watched her disappear into the distance before turning his eyes toward Loreia and Luna.

“Now that Leon has been hacked…”

He smirked, his gaze flickering between them.

“How about you two? Which one of you should be hacked first?”

Loreia and Luna froze.

The memory of Liora’s agonizing transformation flashed through their minds, and a cold sweat formed on their backs.

Luna let out an awkward chuckle, waving her hand.

“Master, I think… you should rest first.”

Loreia quickly nodded in agreement.

“Yeah, Lucius. You already spent so much energy hacking Leon into something ridiculous.”

Luna crossed her arms, giving a forced smirk.

“And let’s not forget, that must have drained a ton of Hack Points. You just made a Divine-Tier Beast, after all.”

Loreia sighed dramatically.

“Besides, we still have our sale to focus on later. You can hack us after we make some money.”

Lucius tilted his head, his smirk lingering.

“Hmm… I see your point.”

He leaned back slightly, stretching his arms.

“I am a bit tired. And… yeah, my Hack Points took a major hit.”

His eyes glowed slightly, scanning his status.

“About 80 percent of my points were used just to make Leon what he is now.”

He let out a low chuckle.

“Guess I should get some sleep.”

Loreia and Luna exhaled in relief, sharing a quick glance.

“Good. We avoided it.” Luna muttered under her breath.

Lucius raised his eyebrow but shrugged, smirking.

“Alright then. You two handle the store.”

Loreia nodded firmly.

“Of course. You rest, and when you wake up, we’ll be ready for our next move.”

Lucius let out a small laugh as he walked off to his private chamber.

“Fine, fine. Wake me up if something interesting happens.”

As soon as the door closed behind him, Luna collapsed onto the couch, sighing.

“Damn, that was close.”

Loreia crossed her arms, nodding.

“Yeah… I’m not ready to go through that kind of transformation yet.”

Luna smirked. “Exactly. So let’s make sure Master doesn’t hack us for at least another few days.”

Loreia chuckled, shaking her head.

“Agreed. Let’s just focus on the store for now.”

For now, they had bought themselves time—but deep down, they knew it wouldn’t last forever.

—

Three days later, inside the grand conference hall of Beast Castle, Varen Aldren sat at the head of the table.

His fingers tapping rhythmically against the polished wood.

Across from him, Sallos stood calmly, awaiting orders.

Varen’s eyes flickered with anticipation as he finally spoke.

“Sallos. Have you prepared the SS-Rank beast we’re going to sell?”

Sallos nodded firmly.

“Yes. The hunters have already contacted us.”

Varen’s smirk widened slightly.

“So, they succeeded? Good.”

Sallos continued.

“The beast has been caught. It’s secured, and all preparations are being finalized.”

Sallos leaned forward slightly.

“Did you want to see it first, Director? Before we sell it.”

A dangerous glint flashed in Varen’s eyes.

“Of course.”

He stood up from his chair, his posture commanding.

“This is our first SS-Rank beast to sell after all.”

The auction would soon begin.

And Beast Castle was about to unveil their greatest sale yet.
