“None left,” Dr. Ma Xiu shook his head, watching him with a curious expression. “What do you intend to do with it?”
“Of course, I’m giving it to my parents,” Ye Nan said as if it were obvious.
“Heh, but unfortunately, I really don’t have any left,” Ma Xiu said, gazing at Ye Nan, his eyes gleaming with an inexplicable light—as if reminiscing, or perhaps raging.
“How did that feeling feel?” Ma Xiu asked. Ye Nan’s interruption had nearly made him forget his original question; now he turned back, eager to know what that precognitive power truly was.
God is said to be omniscient and omnipotent, and my God-blood seeks to shatter God’s forbidden domain, to attain power equal to His. I hope you can become omniscient like God—after all, your performance just now matched that trait perfectly.
The ability to foresee another’s movements is, to some extent, equivalent to omniscience.
“It’s a feeling beyond words,” Ye Nan said, then organized his thoughts. “Just now, at the exact moment your brain issued a command, I perceived it. I was like an analytical machine, processing that command in an instant—seeing through your movement before it happened.”
See through movements? Dr. Ma Xiu frowned sharply. He had assumed Ye Nan could predict the future—only to learn it was merely reading others’ actions. That was useless.
“Many experts, many soldiers, can anticipate an opponent’s move the instant they begin it. Such people are common in competitive gaming.”
What Dr. Ma Xiu didn’t know was how terrifying Ye Nan’s talent truly was. Human behavior is controlled by the brain—the brain is the mainframe, directing the body. Ye Nan, however, was like a hacker intercepting the brain’s outgoing signals, instantly perceiving the opponent’s actions. Far superior to mere anticipation.
Seeing Dr. Ma Xiu’s disappointment, Ye Nan said nothing in rebuttal, only smiled and stood there. “This test subject is useless now. Let him be my opponent.”
“You?” Ma Xiu sized up Ye Nan, then shook his head. “This isn’t a regular game. Fail, and you’ll be torn apart. He won’t show you mercy. If you truly want a challenge, I’ll find you a few soldiers to train with.”
“No need,” Ye Nan smiled and shook his head, brimming with confidence. “Firewall Queen, open the glass door.”
Creak—creak!!! The glass door slowly opened. The monster, lying motionless as if dead, surged forward in a flash—too fast for any normal human to react.
But Ye Nan was no longer normal. From the moment he received the God-blood and Godzilla’s blood cells, his life had undergone transformation.
Not only had his strength and speed increased—his perception now pierced through flesh, directly intercepting brain commands, rendering him invincible.
Long before Ye Nan made his move, he had already sensed the monster’s command. He knew the creature hadn’t fainted—it had been lying in wait. Its brain had continuously issued orders, forcing its body to remain still until the glass door opened—then strike.
The monster lunged at Dr. Ma Xiu with blinding speed, its heart filled with hatred—for Ma Xiu had turned him into this monster, stolen his home, barred him from seeing his wife and children. He would kill this architect of his torment.
Just as the monster was about to reach Dr. Ma Xiu, a fist slammed in from the side, hurling it backward.
“Your opponent is me,” Ye Nan blew lightly on his fist, a flicker of pride in his chest. Injected with Godzilla’s cells, his strength was no longer human—even elite soldiers might not match him in raw power.
Of course, as elite soldiers, their combat experience and martial skill utterly dwarfed Ye Nan’s. But against a man who perceived movements and intercepted brain signals, even elite soldiers faced uncertain odds.
The monster stared at Ye Nan, eyes blazing with hatred. Though it didn’t know Ye Nan’s relationship with Ma Xiu, their conversation suggested Ye Nan was also an investor. It had wanted only to kill Ma Xiu—but now that Ye Nan stood in its way, it would kill him too.
Crimson eyes locked onto Ye Nan. It lunged, twin claws slicing through air, tearing space, arriving before him in a blink.
Ye Nan watched, sidestepped slightly, eyes brimming with contempt. “Is this your strength? Pathetic.”
Just now, Ye Nan’s perception had captured the monster’s signal and decoded it in a second—instinctively dodging. This power was nothing short of God’s omniscience.
“Useless. With God’s perception, you cannot defeat me,” Ye Nan laughed aloud, weaving perception into combat. He was born invincible—any brain signal issued by his opponent was instantly perceived and neutralized. He called this power God Perception.
Ye Nan was undeniably insane, undeniably arrogant—arrogant enough to see himself as God. He named everything after God, for God was the Lord of the West—and he intended to become its Lord.
In his past life, watching movies, he’d always thought: if he ever entered a film, he’d replace the protagonist, exploit every resource, and forge himself into something greater. His classmates laughed, calling it obsession, calling it God’s-eye view.
Now, he had finally crossed over. With the Blood Orchid, Jurassic Park, and Godzilla appearing, the ambition buried deep within him erupted.
Without power, he could still be humble, conceal himself, hide his heart from others. But now that he possessed power, he finally stepped forward to reveal his ambition.
Ambition without power is a schemer; power without ambition is a hero. But Ye Nan—ambition matched by power—can be called warlord, emperor. Yet Ye Nan preferred to be called—God.
PS: The title of this novel began as Western-style, then shifted to Eastern-style as writing progressed. Please don’t overanalyze—thank you all.
