Soon after exploring everything, most of Maximus' family was ready to return.
Uninterested in boring research and deduction, they preferred fighting dark beasts or merging seeds of path.
Like brutes who only knew how to fight or plant seeds, they weren't suited for delicate work.
As for Hazel, Angeline, Irene, Denice, Lily, Lydia, Luke, Sam, Nero, and some of his in-laws, they chose to stay and help Maximus with his work.
After seeing the rest of his family off, Maximus turned to those who remained.
"I plan to optimize the micro surveillance bots. If you want to help, raise your hands. If not, you can study parts of Lazo's body, it should give you massive gains."
As part of the deal he settled with Lazo, those body parts were equal in value to the Space-Time Lab.
Even glimpsing a slight trace of Lazo's essence was enough to provide great benefit.
If Maximus weren't in a hurry and didn't have other priorities, he might have focused on this instead.
