Beast Hack: Customizing Beasts and Capturing Beauties-Chapter 303: The Abyssal Tyrant Has Been Captured!

Liora stopped, turning her gaze toward Dreadmaw, who had finally halted its chase.

The massive beast snorted but it made no effort to step beyond its claimed land.

Liora grinned. "So, you really won't leave your territory, huh?"

She cracked her knuckles. "Now that you can't come any closer… let's counterattack."

She turned toward Leon. "Alright, Leon. Send it some missiles."

Leon suddenly paused, his silver flames flickering slightly in confusion.

Liora blinked.

"Wait… You don't know?"

Leon tilted his head, clearly unsure of what she meant.

Liora frowned, realization hitting her.

"Damn…"

She crossed her arms, deep in thought.

"Master hacked you into a war beast, but he never actually explained what war weapons were, huh?"

Leon growled lowly, clearly having no reference for what "missiles" were.

Liora let out a deep sigh, shaking her head.

"Tch. I guess I have to be the one to fight."

She took a deep breath for a moment.

Then she grinned. "Leon. Fuse with me."

Leon's flames surged, recognizing the command immediately.

Liora stretched her arms, rolling her shoulders.

"If you don't understand your new abilities yet, then I'll just use them myself."

She smirked.

"I should be able to use everything you've got."

Leon roared, his silver flames expanding as they engulfed Liora, their energies merging seamlessly.

The fusion was instantaneous, their essences merging, and in the blink of an eye—Liora's body transformed.

Her skin flickered between solid and flame, her hair now a flowing mane of silver fire.

Her entire body pulsed with energy, her form more fluid, more adaptable—more warlike.

She clenched her flaming fists, flexing her fingers, feeling the surge of new power course through her.

"So this is what it feels like to fuse with the new you, huh?"

Her eyes glowed fiercely, her smirk widening.

"Damn… I feel even stronger than before."

Her body felt lighter, faster, but at the same time, denser—reinforced with pure energy.

She slowly raised her hands, watching as flames shifted between elemental forms, morphing at her will.

"Now… it's time for the real counterattack."

She turned her attention to Dreadmaw, the colossal beast still watching cautiously, sensing the new shift in power.

Liora grinned, and with just her imagination, her shoulders shifted, molten metal forming into two massive missile launchers.

"This… is what I was talking about."

She aimed.

Dreadmaw's eyes narrowed, its body tensing.

Then—

Boom! Boom!

Two massive missiles launched from her shoulders, spiraling through the air, leaving behind trails of silver flame.

Dreadmaw frowned, its instincts screaming.

It knew these weapons.

It had fought humans before—small, insignificant creatures that relied on strange long-range weapons.

It had always countered them the same way.

Dreadmaw roared, sending out a shockwave of intense heat, forcing projectiles to explode prematurely.

But this time—

Nothing happened.

The missiles tore through the heatwave, completely unaffected.

Dreadmaw's eyes widened.

Updat𝓮d from frёewebnoѵēl.com.

It let out another roar, but it was useless.

The missiles continued their course—straight toward it.

"Boom!"

The first missile collided, detonating upon impact, sending shockwaves through Dreadmaw's colossal body.

"Boom!"

The second hit directly into its side, an explosion of silver flames engulfing the monster's obsidian scales.

Dreadmaw roared in pain, staggering backward, feeling true damage for the first time.

Liora smirked, smoke rising from her launchers.

"Oh? You didn't like that?"

She rolled her shoulders, letting out a low chuckle.

"Heh. That was just a test shot."

Her launchers started reloading automatically, silver flames crackling as another set of missiles formed.

She lifted her hand, aiming once more.

"Now let's keep going… until you give up."

She fired again.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A relentless barrage of missiles launched at blinding speed toward Dreadmaw.

Their silver flames illuminating the battlefield as they spiraled toward Dreadmaw.

Dreadmaw roared, stomping down hard, triggering Seismic Devastation once again.

The earth cracked, molten fissures ripping through the wasteland, attempting to swallow Liora whole.

But Liora laughed, her elemental form flickering, dodging the collapsing terrain effortlessly.

"Come on, big guy! You think I'll fall for that twice?"

Dreadmaw snapped its head up, then unleashed Cataclysmic Roar, sending a wave of raw heat and force toward Liora.

But Leon's Silver Sun Core nullified the effects entirely.

Liora charged forward, her speed increasing, her launchers continuing their relentless fire.

"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"

Each missile struck true, sending Dreadmaw skidding backward, its massive frame struggling to keep balance.

Its Titanic Resilience was holding up, but the damage was adding up fast.

Liora gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing.

"Still standing? Fine. Let's see how much more you can take!"

She raised her hands, her launchers shifting, transforming into a shoulder-mounted energy cannon.

Silver flames condensed at the center, spiraling into a dense, concentrated mass.

"Eat this!"

She fired.

A blinding beam of condensed solar energy tore through the air, colliding directly with Dreadmaw's chest.

The massive beast roared in agony, its magma-infused scales melting under the pure force of the attack.

Dreadmaw stumbled, falling to one knee, its body shuddering violently.

Then—its energy shifted.

Liora's eyes narrowed.

"It's finally happening."

Her scanner activated, immediately detecting a change in Dreadmaw's condition.

[Status Update: Dreadmaw]

[Health: 50% – Entering Recovery Period]

[Weakness Activated: Long Recovery Period – Dreadmaw will now temporarily enter a self-repair state, reducing its ability to attack.]

---

Liora smirked. "Finally… you're slowing down."

Dreadmaw let out a pained snarl, its body shuddering, its magma veins dimming slightly.

Its massive body quivered, no longer lunging forward, no longer charging.

It was just breathing heavily as it began its automatic healing phase.

Liora didn't waste time.

She walked forward, her cannon glowing with stored energy as she aimed directly at Dreadmaw's face.

"Now that you're healing… you can't fight back, can you?"

She took another step closer, her presence looming over the weakened beast.

"So, let me give you one chance."

Her flaming cannon surged, crackling with energy, its power ready to obliterate if necessary.

"Submit and become mine… or else."

Dreadmaw's eyes narrowed, its massive head lowering slightly, its body still desperately trying to recover.

It wasn't stupid.

The enemy before it was too strong.

Too fast. Too unrelenting.

Dreadmaw growled low.

A signal of understanding. A sign of submission.

Liora grinned, lowering her cannon.

"That's what I thought."

She placed her hand on its snout, feeling its massive frame shudder under her touch.

"Good job, big guy. You made the right choice."

She turned toward the sky, commanding her system.

"System—put it inside the vault."

[Beast Capture]

[Target: Dreadmaw]

[Process: Storing within the Eternal Vault]

[Status: Executing...]

---

A bright silver glow surrounded Dreadmaw as its entire colossal frame began breaking down into pure energy.

It was then sucked into one of the Eternal Vault's beast storage slots.

Within seconds, the Abyssal Tyrant Beast was gone.

Liora exhaled, stretching her arms.

"Damn, that was a good fight."

Leon, who had remained fused with her, let out a low, rumbling growl, his flames shifting slightly.

Liora smirked, patting her armored chest.

"See, Leon? That's how you make something submit."

She then turned toward the horizon, looking at the endless wasteland.

"Now then… Let's go back to them to show off our second hunt."
