The next day.
After a long while, Axel stood in his laboratory once more.
He wasn't there to concoct new potions or recipes to make everyone stronger, though. After all, he'd already reached the pinnacle of that. Something that even gods would covet.
Instead, what he was doing was...
"Mmm..."
Sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, and meditating.
He wasn't trying to cultivate the Dao, though. He was simply deep in thought. Thinking of ways he could boost Axevaria's overall strength. Not the individual strength of the top fighters, but the strength of the whole.
Of course, it's not like he had no ideas either.
The very first thought he had was to make weapons.
At present, he had already unlocked all the manufacturing pre-requisites for making the recipes he'd "stolen" from the big companies. Trismus's Singularity Warhead and its launcher, Kalbi's interdimensional Teleporter, and Krypton's Void Energy Core.
