I Can See Health Bars in Real Life-Chapter 409 - 36: Take a Good Look at This World (Part 2)

The method of adding points brings significant growth based on the current overall foundation. Note that it is "based on the current overall foundation," enhancing from 10 points to 11 points is an enhancement on the basis of 10 points; enhancing from 11 points to 12 points, is again an enhancement on the basis of 11 points... Every increase in ability points is a reinforcement of the previous overall ability value.

So it might not be apparent in the beginning, but the further it goes, the more it resembles a snowball effect.

According to Gu Mo’s perception, even by making conservative calculations from the perspective of total quantity, using an ordinary person’s 10 Spiritual attributes as a standard, corresponding to a hundred units of Spiritual Power, when his True Spirit Attribute Value increases to 16 points, it is only barely about ten times that of an ordinary person.

Upon breaking through 18 points in True Spirit Attribute Value, the total amount of Spiritual Power formally surpasses two thousand five hundred units——no wonder it is a true watershed.

Then after the True Spirit Attribute Value reaches 21 points? The total Spiritual Power is already over eight thousand units, and this doesn’t even account for the additional point increase from the Power of the Guardian Spirit... Such a powerful Spiritual Power even brings an unusual feeling of dissonance, almost as if it’s incompatible with the physical body.

And it vaguely makes Gu Mo feel as if when calling upon too much Spiritual Power, his brain seems to have an illusion of overloading and burning out...

He speculates that this is probably due to the interrelated effects among attributes, and since he himself is not merely existing in the form of a Spirit Body, his Spiritual Will has not become independent from the physical body.

——So although the Spiritual attribute has reached an extremely terrifying height, it has also reached a bottleneck...

——Other attributes at this stage are starting to lag behind...

But no matter what, Gu Mo does not regret his ruthless investment, especially at the moment he left Dream City and returned to the real world, he felt even more that his decision was too correct, because almost immediately, he could grasp all of the movements and military layouts near Lake Benqi, sensing every person’s thoughts and emotional fluctuations.

Distance does not affect the result...

Quantity is not a problem either...

Even the helicopter that had just flown far away out of sight, he could easily project his will over it instantly, mastering the intelligence of the soldiers and pilots in the cabin as if being there in person, and could manipulate their emotions and actions... The Spiritual Will of ordinary people was simply as weak as ants in the face of his current state.

So to speak——this was a completely worthy investment and the most correct decision.

He finally reached a brand-new height relying on his own ability values, no longer like before, when there was no particular card to play except calling for backup.

"...No need."

However, the witch did not heed Gu Mo’s enthusiastic invitation, her tone still carried a hint of resolute refusal while remaining calm, but she continued walking forward a few steps, as if remembering something, and stopped to slightly glance sideways at him. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

"By the way, come to think of it, maybe you might need it more."

"Eh?"

Gu Mo was momentarily confused, wondering what this meant.

"Didn’t you say before... you couldn’t fly?" The witch gently brushed her hair behind her ear, turned, and continued to walk away. Ever since she first met this person, he said he couldn’t fly. Back then, she didn’t care much, but now...

This person continually defied her expectations.

Initially, she thought he was just an ordinary Half-Demon, but recently, he turned into a massive Nine-tailed Demon Fox resembling a thousand-meter-tall mountain...

The witch naturally couldn’t believe such statements any longer and also felt a subtle sense of being deceived.

"I really can’t fly, but I can’t operate that kind of thing either, so I’ll pass."

Gu Mo said confidently, that flying was something he would never be able to do in this life. Only by sharing the Death Soul Worm with the witch could he barely travel... Initially, he had an urgent desire to master the Flying Skill, but suddenly he felt it might be okay to take his time.

"..."

"..."

The witch turned her face away, not looking at him, only feeling a slight helpless sigh in her heart at how he could speak so matter-of-factly.

But...

——"To achieve this extent, is it just for that dead person?"

The words Kaguya said before seemed to echo in her ears, also causing her to be slightly absent-minded, but only for a second or two before she snapped back to reality.

The witch did not speak much more, only casting a nameless glance at him before turning to walk further away, her steps light and neither fast nor slow.

"Hmm?"

He tilted his head slightly, watching Kikyo’s figure walk away, wondering what that look just now meant.

Ahead was a line of defense, with sentries on either side of the checkpoint constantly on the lookout, and not far away, fully armed soldiers patrolled endlessly... However, despite the layers of security, it was impossible to block all pathways completely, especially since both the witch and the current Gu Mo could easily avoid conflicts and leave the scene unnoticed.

"Would they find anything?"

After walking a distance away from the checkpoint, Kikyo turned back to glance, still seeing a scene of heightened alert as if facing a great enemy, and asked with some concern.

She already knew that this era is one where mystery has vanished, and if possible, she hoped that those elements of Monster Strength and Divine Will would not reappear to disrupt the world’s progression... Since they had already left this world, they should not appear again.
