Unintelligent Monsters

Sky made his way to the nearest 'nest' of the unintelligent species. Without any disturbances during his travel, he reached the nest in about two and half days.

He watched the nest from outside the detection range of the unintelligent species. With his vision which surpassed most monsters, he soon found the type of monster that occupied the nest.

The monster had two legs and four hands, it's face looked like that of an ape. It's mid body was was bare, without any fur covering it.

It looked like a combination of black and white. Black fur and bare stomach.

Sky nodded his head as he observed the monster. The half blooded vampire had given him the correct information. He already knew what type of monster this nest contained from the information he gained from the half Vampire.

"What is your plan?" Artha asked him as he continued to observe the monsters.

"Well, I won't rush in without gaining sufficient information. I have already faced the consequences of that." He said seriously.

Artha's face turned sad as Sky spoke. The consequences Sky had to face for not emphasizing on information was her sister.

Both of them stayed silent as they remembered the four tailed fox.

A long time passed when Sky suddenly ran towards the nest. Artha knew Sky had a plan and did not disturb as Sky charged.

Sky rushed towards the nearest monster. The level five monster felt Sky charging at it and turned over. When it saw Sky moving in its direction, It roared in reflex and waved it's four hands, wanting to smash Sky to pieces.

Sky raised his left hand and intercepted the four hands. His speed had allowed him to block all the four hands at once. Seeing Sky block it's powerful punch, the monster moved back, it was scared now.

The unintelligent species followed their instincts more than their brain, this was the reason why they were called the unintelligent species.

Now that the level five monster looked at Sky, it felt a dangerous aura permeating from him. It immediately turned back and started fleeing.

But how could Sky let his prey go. He moved at a faster speed than the monster and placed his left hand on it.

His left hand glowed white and absorbed the monster into Sky's third space. During the three years he stayed in the lower floors, Sky had already opened a third space in his hand.

Since he did not have any information about the monster, he would first fight this level five monster in his space and learn their moves.

As soon as Sky absorbed the level five monster into his arm, he turned back and ran. He did not want to be surrounded by a bunch of monsters he knew nothing about.

Only after one hour of constant running, did he stop and enter his third space. He looked at the level five monster who was obviously scared.

But when Sky started walking towards the monster, the monster's scared eyes turned fierce as he charged and rammed his body into Sky's.

He then caught Sky by his legs and smashed him left and right. Sky had his arms folded as the monster smashed him by his legs.

'Four times stronger than the strongest level five monster I have fought till now.'

'Would start fleeing if opponent's emitted a scary aura.'

'When cornered, they would overcome their fear and start attacking without a concern for their lives'

These were the three things he observed about this monster. After it smashed Sky enough. It threw away Sky and laid down exhausted.

Sky slowly got up and walked back to the tired monster. "You have no other use for me to keep you alive." He said as his left hand pierced the monsters heart.

As he absorbed the blood essence, he made his left hand retrieve the memories of this monster during it's life. This was a new ability his left hand had awakened when his body leveled up to level seven.

He went through the monster's memories and shook his head. This monster was one of the weakest monster of the nest.

In it's whole life, it had never went into the core of the nest. The highest level monster it had seen was a level eight monster. This level eight monster was the head of all patrolling monsters of the nest.

This gave Sky a rough sketch of the nest. This nest obviously had some monsters at level nine, or maybe some monsters that are above level nine.

He did the right thing to not charge inside recklessly. In his present state, it would be a miracle if he could escape from a level nine monster, not even mentioning killing it.

These unintelligent species were at least four times stronger than the normal monsters. If he faced with a level nine monster from the nest right now, he was sure that he would not be able to escape from them even with the help of his left arm.

He then converted the whole of the monster's blood essence into energy units. He was not surprised when he received four times the energy units when compared to the normal level five monsters.

Seems like four times was the best way to describe these unintelligent monsters.

.....

Sky observed the nest for a week, every day he would kidnap some level five and level six monsters and see through their memories, trying to figure out the power of the nest.

He continued observing for a month more before a level seven monster came into his view. Seems like they have stationed a level seven monster to deal with the kidnapper of their lower levelled monsters.

This was exactly what Sky had desired. He wished to draw out the higher level monsters slowly and learn the power structure of the nest before attacking it fully.

The level seven monster was also not spared from Sky's notorious kidnapping. He absorbed it into his third space and ran.

When Sky fought with the level seven monster in his third space, he had gained information about a new secret technique used by the unintelligent species. This technique allowed the monster to expand or contract it's extra two hands willingly.

But when Sky retrieved it's memories, he was disappointed to see that even this level seven monster had lived it's whole life in the outskirts.

Seems like he would have to draw out the level eight monster to learn more about the core of the nest. But Sky was not sure that he would be able to fight against a level eight monster that was four times stronger than the normal ones.

As he was thinking about this, his left hand had converted the blood essence of the level seven monster into energy units. Suddenly Sky felt the barrier to his eighth level weaken.

His body shook in excitement as he thought about the possibility of leveling up. The barrier that had stopped him at level seven weakened as soon as it absorbed the blood essence of the level seven unintelligent monster.

Did this mean that he was more closer to the unintelligent species than the normal ones. Sky had his doubts.
