The makeshift lab didn't need much input on Khan's end. He had already dug out everything he could find, and the scanners were powerful enough to cover the entire underground chamber. Khan only needed to wait for the process to end, occasionally adding commands to the central console.

The process gave Khan a lot of free time, so he mostly meditated, absorbing all the energy he had stuffed into his body during the previous training session. His body healed quickly and grew stronger, getting hungrier for mana at each step.

That quickened the absorption but also emptied the reserves Khan had almost shed blood to accumulate. No red marks scarred his torso anymore, but he would soon need to get more of those. Khan would never complete his attunement with mana otherwise.
