The end of the world is approaching, I'm handing myself over to the country.

Lin Mo remained dazed for a while before slowly opening his eyes, having spent all his free attribute points on the mental attribute.

He re-examined this world that was both familiar and strange.

Everything has changed.

Lin Mo reached out and grabbed a handful in mid-air.

Fingertips brush against the air, creating a barely perceptible airflow.

But in his perception at this moment, the airflow felt like gentle streams, winding around his fingers.

"Perhaps, this is the real world."

What is reality?

What constitutes authenticity?

Authenticity should not be easily defined.

At this moment, Lin Mo felt better than ever before.

Every corner of my brain felt cool and clear, and my thoughts were running much faster than before.

"Fortunately, I didn't go down the wrong path of physical fitness."

"Otherwise, he might really become a fool who only knows how to use brute force."

However, when he re-examined his overall combat capabilities, he discovered something was amiss.

Overall combat strength: 30841

The previous overall combat strength was 28523.

The addition of over three thousand points to the spirit attribute only resulted in a combat power increase of slightly over two thousand.

This increase was completely different from what he had expected.

Lin Mo turned his head and looked at the sparrow that was still staring blankly at the instrument stand.

"I clearly added 3158 free attribute points, so why is the increase in combat power so small?"

The sparrow seemed to be still struggling in its own world, and when Lin Mo asked it this question, the bird froze for a moment.

【Huh? What did you say?】

"What are you doing? You've been spacing out ever since this started."

"I said, my overall combat strength..." Lin Mo patiently repeated it again.

"More than 3,000 points of spirit attribute only increased combat power by a little over 2,000, which is clearly unreasonable."

The sparrow then came to its senses, and after a brief silence, slowly spoke.

You can try to think of the ultimate goal of becoming stronger as a single, unattainable destination.

Physical and mental attributes are two completely different paths.

You previously chose the path of physical strength, and you've already come a long way.

But now, instead of continuing down this path, you've chosen to turn back and travel a distance along the spiritual path once more.

The sparrow paused, seemingly organizing its thoughts to make the metaphor more understandable.

Although the total distance you've traveled is long, in reality, you haven't gotten much closer to the finish line.

Do you understand my explanation?

Lin Mo listened and remained silent for a moment.

He understood instantly.

Specialization is always more powerful than breadth without depth.

My current situation is a typical "bucket" shape, having a little bit of both sides, but not reaching the extreme on either side.

However, he did not regret it.

If he had to do it again, he would still choose to add spirit.

Once you get used to the changes brought about by the improvement in your mental attributes, it's impossible to go back.

Just like before cell phones existed, people could still have a lot of fun.

But if cell phones suddenly disappeared, the whole world would fall into chaos.

and.

Lin Mo felt that the improvement in his mental attributes did not significantly increase his overall combat power.

But the actual improvement is definitely not small.

"I understand clearly."

Lin Mo gave the sparrow a signature smile.

"So it really comes down to you. If this explanation is out of 100, I'd give you 99 points."

"I'm adding a little more so that you won't become arrogant."

The sparrow was stunned.

His little brain was racing with information, but he couldn't find a single answer to the current situation.

Praise.

This is pure, unadulterated praise.

At that moment, something suddenly clicked in his not-so-bright mind.

Why did that sharp-tongued and mean-spirited demeanor, which I used to hate, suddenly appear?

It's because it's real.

That's right, it's because it's real!

The longer he spent with Lin Mo, the more he felt like a "real" life, rather than a collection of cold data.

Lin Mo never seemed to see himself as just a tool.

He would joke with himself, criticize himself, and, like now, sincerely praise himself.

Lin Mo considered himself a being with his own independent thoughts.

Perhaps he didn't see himself as a human being, but he certainly wasn't a cold, emotionless tool.

But one thing must be said: Lin Mo can be really ruthless when he criticizes himself.

However......

Lin Mo, however, was completely oblivious to Sparrow's wildly imaginative ideas.

He didn't even glance at the silly bird standing blankly on the instrument stand again.

After confirming the logic behind the combat power increase, Lin Mo's attention was completely shifted away from the attribute panel.

At this moment, his mind was clearer than ever before.

He took out another set of materials for an intermediate-level gene potion.

Prepare the ingredients again.

The steps and operations are exactly the same as before.

But Lin Mo felt that everything had changed again.

This time, Lin Mo's movements appeared slower than ever before.

He didn't rush to start, but quietly looked at the materials in front of him.

In his perception, that gentian was no longer just a simple plant.

He can "see" the intricate fibrous structure inside and "feel" how the faint energy contained within it flows slowly through its veins.

The viscous liquid in the bottle was no longer a blurry blob.

He could even distinguish the subtle differences between the various components, which were suspended together in a peculiar balance, forming a fragile yet stable structure.

This is the world after mental strength is enhanced.

A world analyzed to its extreme, composed of countless pieces of information.

Time lost its meaning at this moment.

Lin Mo was completely immersed in this wonderful preparation process.

There's no need to pay special attention to it.

Every move he made was timed perfectly.

The sparrows nearby had already been startled awake from their own world.

His small eyes flashed with data, recording the incredible scene before him.

[Step 1 of the recipe is 100% complete.]

[Step two of the recipe is 100% complete.]

[Formulation step three, material loss rate 0.01%, completion rate 100%.]

A series of notifications flooded his database.

This is not normal.

This is very abnormal!

But Sparrow forgot that Lin Mo was a quick-learning machine.

In just about half a month, their overall combat strength went from zero to over 3.

Without accumulating experience over time, the solution will naturally differ from others.
