Reborn as a high school freshman with an awakened system, a fat boy transforms into a male god.

Chapter 38 I am now in a state where "everything" has been destroyed.

Lin Bei looked at the text on the panel and continued scanning downwards.

[Rewards: +10 attribute points, 20,000 RMB cash, "Memory Palace" superpower unlocked (permanent)]

He stopped.

Memory Palace?

[Memory Palace Ability Description: From the moment this ability is activated, all information the host sees, hears, smells, and touches will be automatically stored in a dedicated memory area of ​​the brain. This area has no upper limit on capacity, and the information is permanently stored and will not become blurred or lost over time. The host can retrieve memory fragments from any moment since the ability was activated at any time through "keyword search" or "time index," down to every detail, including images, sounds, smells, sensations, and even the emotional state at the time.]

[Note 1: This ability does not trace the past. Memories from before the ability is activated will remain forgotten by the host. Recording begins now.]

[Note 2: Memories from before the ability was activated will not become clear due to this ability. The host's memories of the past will remain either vague or indistinct. The system will not provide make-up lessons.]

Lin Bei stared at the two rules, "no dwelling on the past" and "no extra lessons," and remained silent for a moment.

He tried to recall what Su Wantang looked like in her white dress this morning.

I only have a vague impression in my mind. It was white, and it looked like a dress, but how long was the skirt? What color were the shoes? Was her hair down or tied up? I can't remember any of it.

He tried to recall the dinner his mother had made the day before.

Braised pork ribs? Or braised pork belly? I'm not sure. What were the side dishes? I can't remember at all.

This is his normal level of memory. Blurry, incomplete, like an overexposed old photograph, where only the general outline is visible, and all the details are lost.

Most of my memories from my previous life are in this state.

[The host just attempted to recall the scene before the ability was activated, but failed. As the system said, the past cannot be revisited. What the host has lost, the system cannot restore. However, everything the host possesses from this moment on will be preserved by the system, without exception.]

Lin Bei leaned against the headboard, processing what he had just heard.

"Then at least I know one thing," he thought to himself, "starting tomorrow, I will remember everything that happens to me clearly."

[Correct. The host will remember exactly what Su Wantang will wear, what she will say, her tone of voice, and her position tomorrow morning. Absolutely.]

Lin Bei's heart skipped a beat.

It wasn't because he was nervous, but because of the thought itself... Starting tomorrow, he would never forget anything about her again.

[The system has detected an abnormal heart rate in the host. It is recommended that the host not overthink things and first test the basic functions of their abilities.]

Lin Bei took a deep breath and suppressed the thought.

He thought to himself: Retrieve the screen from when I was looking at the system panel.

The scene unfolded in my mind.

It wasn't a vague impression, but a playback like a high-definition video. He sat on the bed, looking down at the system panel floating above his knees, blue text on a black background.

He could "see" his fingers curled up on the blanket, his nails trimmed very short. He could "see" that the curtains weren't fully drawn, and a ray of light leaked in through the gap, falling on the back of his right hand and making that small patch of skin appear white.

He could even "hear" people downstairs taking in their laundry, the clanging and tinkling of clothes hangers hitting the metal bars coming in through the window.

You can still "smell" the aroma wafting from the kitchen; your mother is cooking.

Lin Bei suddenly opened his eyes.

He didn't deliberately try to remember these things; he didn't even notice that someone downstairs was taking in the laundry.

But the "memory palace" automatically recorded it without any error.

He suddenly thought of a question.

"System," he called out in his mind.

【exist. 】

"How much data can this memory palace store?"

[No upper limit.]

"Is there really no upper limit?"

[It's true. The host's exclusive memory area isn't in the host's biological brain, it's here with the system. The host's biological brain is merely the "terminal," the system is the "server." How much the host can remember depends on the system's storage space. And the system's storage space... to give an example, even if you stored all of humanity's written, image, and sound records from ancient times to the present, it would only occupy a fraction of the system's storage space... never mind, I won't say anymore, or the host will think the system is showing off.]

Lin Bei's lips twitched.

"Can I save the video? I mean... the entire continuous view I saw?"

[Yes. Everything the host sees is video. At least 24 frames per second, accompanied by audio, smell, and tactile data. The host can replay from any point in time, slowing down, pausing, and taking screenshots... although the host doesn't need to take screenshots because they can directly "see" the scene in their mind. But note: only scenes after the ability has been activated can be replayed. Previous scenes are not supported.]

Lin Bei sat up from the bed and walked to his desk to sit down.

He opened his English textbook and turned to the vocabulary list for the first unit. Thirty words. He looked through them line by line, not trying to memorize them, just looking at them.

Then he closed his textbook and shut his eyes.

I found the image of looking at the vocabulary list in my mind. It wasn't that I "remembered" the words, but that I "saw" that page. The textbook paper was pale yellow, not pure white.

He "saw" the phonetic symbols next to every word. He even "saw" a small ink stain on the right side of the last line of the vocabulary list, like a printing defect.

He doesn't need to "memorize," he only needs to "read" the page in his mind.

Lin Bei opened his eyes, turned to the next page, and read it once. He closed it, "seeing" that page in his mind.

I turned five more pages. I read each page once, then closed the book.

The six-page vocabulary list contained over 180 words. He "saw" them all; they were in his mind like six photographs, ready to be reviewed at any time.

[The system monitored the host's process of recording the vocabulary list using the "Memory Palace." Time taken: 2 minutes and 18 seconds. Number of pages recorded: 6. Number of words recorded: 187. At the host's normal level, memorizing 187 words would take at least... well, never mind, it would hurt the host's pride.]

Lin Bei: ...

He ignored the system's complaints and suddenly remembered something: he hadn't allocated the 10 attribute points the system had awarded him yet!

Lin Bei sat up straight again and mentally called out, "System, bring up the attribute panel."

A semi-transparent interface suddenly unfolded before my eyes.

Host: Lin Bei

Age: 16 years old

Height: 178cm

Weight: XNUM X kg

Appearance: 1/100

Body type rating: 10/100

IQ score: 65/100

Emotional Intelligence Score: 34/100

Charm rating: 13/100

He stared at those numbers, looking at them one by one.

Suddenly, his gaze froze.

and many more.

How did my body type score change from 8 to 10? And my emotional intelligence score change from 32 to 34?

Can't attribute values ​​only be increased by adding points? Can't they also increase through personal effort?

[Yes, host. The system has detected a change in the host's body data and has automatically updated the body size value. The host's current weight is 98.7 kg, a decrease of 1.8 kg compared to the initial weight of 100.5 kg. The body size value has been adjusted from 8 to 10.]

[Furthermore, the increase in emotional intelligence (EQ) is due to the host demonstrating empathy, listening skills, and the ability to remain silent at appropriate times during their interactions with Su Wantang, thus improving their EQ.]

[Attribute values ​​can be naturally increased through effort, including physique, emotional intelligence, and charm. As for looks and intelligence… host, would you like to guess?]

Lin Bei thought for a moment, "Looks... I guess they'll change too, right? My face will change after I lose weight, and my skin will change too. After all, fair skin hides a hundred flaws, but being overweight ruins everything. Right now, I'm in a state where 'everything' is ruined. Maybe I can salvage it once I lose weight?"
