( The universal warehouse )
Max looked at the first aisle which looked to be an items section.
There were all sorts of cursed weapons, accessories, armours and unique items in this aisle but the very first thing that caught his eye was the item labelled as ' Pashupati- Astra ' ( Weapon Of The Beast King )
—---
[ ⅓ ] ( Pashupati- Astra ) ( Divine ) - The weapon of the first beast monarch.
The strongest creature to ever live and the father of all modern beast races.
Collecting all 3 pieces gives one authority equal to the first beast king, meaning no descendants of the beast king line can defy your will.
—---
Max felt goosebumps run all over his spine as he read the description of the Pashupati Astra.
If his assumption was not wrong, there was a popular mythology that the Dragons, the Phoenix's and the nine tailed fox all had a common ancestor long back who was called Lord Pashupati.
If Max managed to get his hands on all 3 parts, he could become the beast sovereign, trumping the current Beast King Omar's position on the throne.
' No wonder the third piece is sealed here, this thing can cause catastrophe if left in the open universe ' Drax said in Max's mind as Max shakily moved forward.
Having already faced countless headaches trying to complete the Agni-Astra, Max was not at all keen on repeating the process.
The second item that caught his eye was the blueprint of a peculiar weapon.
—------
[ Planetary Destroyer Ship ] - This is a special class of destroyer battleship capable of performing planetary destruction.
Can fully destroy middle sized planets in about 24 hours using a constant energy beam mounted on the ships mainframe.
[ System Notification - You can see the design specifications if you pick this item as your final choice
Would you like to claim this item?
Yes
No ]

Max clicked No, but the very idea that there was a ship that could destroy entire planets was very interesting to him.
Technically, it would need a tier6 god about 3-4 months worth of time to destroy a planet, whereas it would take one tier7 attack to do so.
So the idea that a ship could be made that could produce power near the tier7 realm was shocking to say the least.
It enabled mortals to pose as god's and cause mayhem and Max could understand why such an item needed to be sealed.
In a universe where only god's could traverse through space unharmed, ships were the backbone of any military.
Every military needed a mode of transportation from planet to planet and if one could prevent enemy soldiers from ever landing on their planet, then they could ensure that their planet could never be conquered.
In such scenarios having a Planetary Destroyer ship as one's mode of transportation enabled the military to perform roles far beyond their abilities and could be a great strategic addition.
Max, who had a very imaginative brain, conjured up countless scenarios where choosing this item would not be a bad choice, but in the end he decided to let it be and move forward as he was sure that there was much better stuff awaiting him.
He wasn't wrong as every item he gazed on was almost as interesting as the planetary ship.
There were necromancer staffs and legacies of arcane emperors in the form of bracelets that gave one powers just like Sebastian had received from his necromantic ring.
If Max was a tier0-3 warrior who had not yet fixated on a proper fighting style, then choosing any of these legacy items would have helped him shape his path as a warrior, but as a tier6 god he wasn't as moldable as before and forcibly trying to change his style would only cause imbalance within his existing moveset which is why he wasn't interested in these items.
Continuing his search, Max walked around the items section for a full 45 minutes expanding his knowledge of the forbidden objects of the universe, but while all the other objects seemed fine Max felt broken but fine, there was one particular object that made Max's heartbeat stop for a moment.
It was an object that was described using ' Red Ink ' during the system notification which was the first time Max had seen such a phenomenon.
—-----
[ Cyber- Bipedals ] - An invention within a non- mana integrated planet that has the potential to evolve 10,000 years in every hour that passes.
An inorganic form of life that has the potential to wipe out all organic life forms in the universe and reach tier9 strength within hundred days of creation.
Subdued and trapped on day 2. The planet where the life form was created was destroyed in its entirety.
EXTREME WARNING - Do not release this machine into the controlled universe.
—------
Max opened and closed his mouth several times when he saw the item and then pretended he never saw it.
The cyber machine looked exactly like a cross between a human and a gorilla and Max could notice how instead of having a ribcage with gaps, it had a breast-plate to protect its internal organs which was heavier, but undoubtedly offered more protection to its energy core.
If this was it's evolution stage at day 2, then Max did not want to imagine what it would be at day 100.
Perhaps it would be like the queen, or perhaps something else, but regardless it wasn't a curiosity Max wanted to satisfy.
Being an organic lifeform himself he was happy with the dwarves creating robots and machines that made the life of the living easier, but he absolutely did not want inorganic life forms made of metal to evolve and become powerful enough to take over the universe.
After glancing over that item, Max felt sick to his stomach and decided to skip the items section all together.
Walking into the knowledge section instead Max decided to browse through some harmless book titles.
There was an old and wise saying that knowledge was power, and Max wanted to see exactly what all secrets were buried within the universal warehouse that were such high levels of forbidden knowledge that they needed to be stored here.
