For the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes, as a hikikomori, Fang Li was not unfamiliar with them.

They are special abilities from the Type Moon series, "Tsukihime" and "Kara no Kyoukai."

There are two holders of this ability.

One is Ryougi Shiki from "Kara no Kyoukai."

The other is Shiki Tohno from "Tsukihime."

As the name suggests, this ability allows the holder to directly see the "death" of an object.

Those who possess this ability can visually perceive dark lines, known as "lines of death," on the surface of most objects. If these lines are cut, the object will suffer irreparable and incurable damage.

One of the conditions for possessing this ability is to have personally experienced death and understood it.

"Death..."

Looking at the icy blue eyes in the mirror that seemed to steal all the warmth from a person, Fang Li laughed bitterly.

"Indeed, I can be considered to have experienced death."

However, experiencing death is just a condition for obtaining the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes, not for using them.

According to Fang Li's memory, even if one obtains the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes, they are not something that can be used at will.

"Let alone the fact that, strictly speaking, I shouldn't be able to have these eyes in the Type Moon world."

Fang Li clearly remembered that in the Type Moon series, there is a fundamental setting: everything originates from the "Root."

The "Root" is the origin of all things.

There, not only is the beginning of everything recorded, but also the end of everything.

Human souls also originate from this "Root," thus gaining form, intelligence, and the ability to thrive on the earth.

Because everything is derived from the "Root," all humans in the Type Moon world are connected to it.

Since the "Root" records the end of everything, being connected to it means recognizing the death of all things.

However, although the human brain has the ability to receive and send signals, the "line" connecting to the "Root" is closed.

Only by experiencing and understanding death will this "line" be opened.

Ryougi Shiki and Shiki Tohno both experienced death, thus recognizing and understanding the "death" of things, seeing the "death" of things, and even being able to force objects to their end by cutting these "deaths."

This is the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes.

"But I'm not in the Type Moon world, so there's no such thing as being connected to the 'Root.'"

However, Fang Li still obtained the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes.

"Talent... talent... so I have a talent in this area, right?"

"I'm just indifferent to 'death.'"

Fang Li sighed slightly and put away the mirror.

No matter what, since the God Space already exists, nothing can be considered strange.

Although Fang Li's attributes are terrible, having these magic eyes will undoubtedly be beneficial for his upcoming journey in the副本 world.

"Still, I have 990 exchange points and 5 free attribute points left. How should I use them?"

Thirty minutes later, Fang Li would have to experience the first副本 world.

Fang Li needed to make good use of his resources for the upcoming journey.

Thus, Fang Li spent twenty-five minutes in deep thought before finally taking action.

First, he allocated all 5 free attribute points to AGI, increasing it to 6.

"Having the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes, as long as I can hit the target, I can cause significant damage, so there's no need to increase STR."

"Regarding VIT, it's better to consider how to avoid being hit in the first place rather than how much damage I can withstand after being hit, so increasing VIT is not as useful as increasing AGI."

"INT represents mystery, and in my current state, this attribute is useless, so adding points to it would be pointless."

"In summary, increasing AGI is my only choice."

"Having speed ensures that whether it's movement, dodging, retreating, or attacking, I will have a guarantee."

Increasing AGI will enhance Fang Li's movement speed, attack speed, reflexes, motor skills, and even jumping ability, all of which are related to agility.

In short, it will improve his physical speed.

Apart from thinking, this attribute can enhance almost all physical abilities related to speed.

For a hikikomori, this attribute is undoubtedly more important than the others.

After allocating all 5 free attribute points to AGI, Fang Li followed the guidance and used the God Space's exchange function, opening an exchange interface to start exchanging items.

Fang Li first used 100 exchange points to exchange for a dagger.

In the God Space, equipped items with levels can provide additional enhancements to the user.

These enhancements can either boost attributes or come with innate skills, making them a crucial factor in determining the abilities of God Space messengers.

The levels of equipment, like character levels, are ranked from highest to lowest as Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, Level 4, and Level 5.

However, equipped items with levels are generally quite expensive, and with Fang Li's current 990 exchange points, he couldn't afford them.

Since he couldn't exchange for equipped items with levels, Fang Li naturally had to exchange for a regular dagger.

Without a weapon, even with the Dead Apostle Ancestor's Eyes, Fang Li couldn't cut the lines of death and kill enemies.

Then, Fang Li exchanged for several other items.

Stamina Recovery Potion: Continuously restores the user's stamina (small amount) for 10 seconds, 300 exchange points.

Wound Recovery Potion: Continuously heals the user's injuries (minor) for 10 seconds, 500 exchange points.

Energy Compressed Biscuit: Continuously restores the user's energy (nutrition) for 10 seconds, 50 exchange points.

Water Flask: Small bottle, holds 10 liters of water, 30 exchange points.

After exchanging for these items, Fang Li used the remaining 10 exchange points to exchange for a leg pouch, putting the two potions, a pack of biscuits, and a water bottle into it, and attaching it to the outside of his thigh.

As for the dagger, Fang Li attached it to his waist.

In this way, Fang Li spent all his exchange points, leaving none.

To be honest, as a newcomer to the space, Fang Li's actions could be considered quite bold.

After all, this is the God Space, a world where one can gain everything or lose everything.

Here, as long as you have exchange points, you can almost get anything.

Conversely, if you don't have exchange points, the moment they become negative, there is only one outcome.

If exchange points are insufficient, you will be eliminated.

Therefore, this is a paradise for the strong and a hell for the weak.

Given this, no one would choose to spend all their exchange points, in case the main mission fails and they don't have enough exchange points, ultimately leading to their elimination.

Even experienced God Space messengers wouldn't do this, let alone newcomers.

As a result, due to hesitation, many newcomers end up using their exchange points improperly, lacking resources, and dying tragically in the副本 world.

But Fang Li spent all his exchange points without hesitation.

Because, Fang Li fears everything except death.

Thus, thirty minutes passed.
