Information gathering was easy with these talkative dwarfs. Astro had five planets, with dwarfs being the superior race.

Apparently, they were bullied by some other races, and they fought back with technology wiping them out. Their world's firepower had gone down, but with the ZTF's protection, they won't be wiped out.

The little gremlins here had the ZTF on a high pedestal. Since that was the case, I couldn't afford to befriend them.

As for other information I tried to gather, it was the technology. I tried to be subtle about it, but they dismissed my statement.

Knowing the potential danger, the dwarfs wouldn't share it kindly. Even with their childish appearance, they were so naive to give it away.

Linsey, on the other hand, was annoyed by our situation. I thought she would be a little happy meeting someone her height, but I guess not.

"Sorry, but we have to leave now."

"Wait!!!"

"Let's talk more!!!"

Before getting crowded here, I teleported Linsey and me to a secret laboratory. A sigh of relief could be seen once she left. Now that we were alone, we started to investigate the place.

The place we teleported was an underground laboratory. Looking around, I could see this place was attended to a few days ago, but right now, it seemed abandoned.

"What is that???"

I spoke out loud, intended only for myself to hear. Linsey was also shocked by what I had found. Looking at a cosmic tentacle monster, fear spread within the room, and I unconsciously knew this monster in front was too dangerous to even for me.

That monster should be illegal to look at. Even the gore I had seen everywhere was nothing compared to a deformed space monster.

Before this ugly piece of shit could do anything, I sent it away to the shadow realm, making it disappear.

What are these dwarfs cooking up? To think they had contained a monster as creepy as this. I hope there weren't more of these monsters.

"Linsey, what was that..?"

"I don't know..."

We were too frazzled to do anything else. Even with my regeneration, I felt genuine fear. No one would expect monsters of this level to be in this world. Before we continued searching, I let Linsey rest for a while.

"Then let's continue searching."

The only way I would know is if I searched for the research of this creature. Now, where were they? This research lab had many traps added to the mix; alarming them would be troublesome.

"Charles, look!"

While we were scavenging through the labs, Linsey called out to me. She had papers in her hand showing me what she had found.

There were many experiments made in this lab, and skimming through them, I saw the tentacle monster.

​ "Entity 9: Cosmic Space Chimera Squid."

[Day One:

Due to war, our species were endangered. A group of scientists was selected to do some cell transplants. With ten animals selected for our first project, we began the start of our Chimera project.

Day Three:

Seven species ended up failing, but the results given them helped improve the project by a large margin. Two of the subjects ended up successful, with one of them being near to failing.

Day Five:

It was only two left, the dog and the squid. Each of them had perfectly fused with ten other creatures, with the squid being more hostile to us researchers. An anesthetic would be needed for the squid.

Day Nine:

Four days had passed, and the war was raging on. At this rate, our survival will be doomed if we don't hasten our experiments. Our team had decided we would unleash these two creatures would end the war within three days.

With forty cells from superior creatures, the subject of the two had steadily evolved. Due to the fear we induced in the squid, it was less hostile and quieter. More data would be required.

Day Eleven:

There was a day left before we sent in these Chimera. Before we did that, we felt that the final touches for these monsters were not ready.

One of our workers decided to fuse the cells of the two Chimera to create a war machine. We thought his ideas were crazy, but for the survival of our race, we had no choice in this matter.

Day Twelve:

The finishing touches were done, and the idea from George went better than expected. With two super monsters on our side, this war will end in our favor.

Later in the day, the two super beasts we created wiped out everything standing in its way. The space attribute of these monsters was its most deadly aspect. Not only did they have the ultimate attack but the ultimate defense.

In half a day, the war had hit its climax. The squid, which was more hostile, was massacring everything.

Day Thirteen:

Even after the other side tried surrendering, the squid went everywhere to destroy everything. Our ability to control the monster had disappeared, and the power it was gaining was impeccable.

If the squid doesn't stop at this rate, our world will be endangered. Luckily the dog, which had its sanity listened and tried to suppress the squid.

Day Fourteen:

The Zephyr's Trading Firm had offered protection if we joined under them. The timing these people had was shady and was to be untrusted.

The squid defeated and ate our dog, whom we poured our hard work into. No one expected it to grow to another level which was unstoppable at this point.

With the offer of the ZTF still there, they were our only choice. Our leaders had accepted their deal; a moment later, they had the squid sealed.]

I had stopped reading as I had read everything that I needed. The squid here was the strongest creature. Luckily, I sent it somewhere else. It may already be dead by now.

Before we left this research lab, we would see if there were some additional notes that we could see.
