Simon was a Black man from the American South who loved fitness and respected strength. His dream was to win a championship at an international top bodybuilding competition, achieving both fame and fortune.

The only problem was…

He had albinism.

After multiple treatments, his appearance made him look like a normal white person.

This didn't stop him from pursuing his dream.

Simon still spent his days at the gym, pushing himself with excessive workouts.

He never ate takeout or fast food. He prepared all five of his meals himself each day, carefully balancing vitamins, protein, and carbohydrates to meet his body's needs.

After the Blood Moon Incident, Simon saw Jack Grimm's videos on YouTube and instantly became a devoted fan.

Worshiping strength was a trait etched deep into his genes.

Simon's father, grandfather, and even his cousins all held a deep-seated respect and fervor for strong men.

Heaven knows!

Jack Grimm was the most perfectly muscled human Simon had ever seen in his life!

No one from history, as long as photographic records existed, could compare to Jack.

Simon could even assert that Jack Grimm was in one league, and everyone else was in another; comparing them was simply unfair.

Every morning, he was the first one at the gym, quietly waiting for Jack's arrival.

Simon always believed that by simply breathing the same air as the strong and learning their training methods, he would somehow become stronger himself.

But today…

His idol's image was shattered.

Simon understood the bizarre, twisted "OK" gesture Jack made.

That gesture represented "white supremacy."

Simon had witnessed the cold-blooded cruelty of that group firsthand when he was a child.

His most respected uncle during his youth was shot and killed by a middle-aged white man making that exact gesture!

After all these years, Simon thought he was over the psychological trauma.

But when he saw Jack's action and heard his words, he felt a chill run through his entire body, breaking out in a cold sweat.

His heart grew cold.

As a golden-eyed individual and one of America's designated Twelve Saints, how much influence did Jack Grimm have?

Simon stepped out of his fan role and thought rationally.

He saw a dark and ominous future.

Jack Grimm must die!

This racist would drag America's public opinion back to the era before the Civil War!

"Hey, buddy, what's with the daze?"

Simon, his love turned to hate, ignored his workout partner and stumbled out of the gym.

Half an hour later.

Simon returned.

With his hands in his pockets, he walked quickly towards the golden-eyed Jack.

"Hm? Kid, I remember you! What's up?"

Jack Grimm grinned, releasing the chest press machine and revealing eight pearly white teeth.

"Yes."

Simon looked up, his gaze sinister.

He pulled a Colt Python, its safety already off, from his pocket and aimed it at Jack's forehead. "Die!"

You couldn't buy a handgun of this caliber at a gun store.

This was a prized possession Simon had "borrowed" from his cousin.

Gulp…

Jack swallowed.

Faced with this situation, he couldn't muster any thought of resistance.

His legs went weak, a chill enveloped him, his scalp tingled, and waves of cold air rushed straight to his brain from his tailbone.

"Don't be impulsive… I…"

Bang!

Simon, having turned from fan to foe, gave Jack no chance to speak and fired without hesitation.

His marksmanship wasn't great. At this close range, even though he aimed for the forehead, the bullet struck Jack's left eye instead.

The burly, powerfully built man crashed to the ground.

The conflict between metal and flesh, since ancient times, has always ended with the victory of the former.

This time was no exception.

Today, Jack Grimm, the American overlord nicknamed "Humanoid Mech," died by gunfire.

Because the case involved a golden-eyed individual, Simon was quickly subdued by SWAT and detained for questioning.

China, Capital City.

Deep within the secret base at Zhaofu Well.

Yan Anqing, who was eating in the canteen, suddenly saw the round-headed, round-bodied panda appear at the edge of his vision. The black and white lump, so fat it was wheezing, seemed to have used all its strength just to move to the center of his vision.

After panting for a few seconds, it regained the energy to blow bubbles.

A series of text bubbles appeared before Yan Anqing's eyes.

"Congratulations, player, on obtaining the achievement - [Mother of Success]."

"A golden-eyed individual you had high hopes for has died a dramatic death on the street."

"Main Quest, Stage Two, completed!"

"Distributing quest rewards..."

"Reward distribution complete!"

The text wasn't long, but the amount of information was significant.

First was the tragic death of Jack Grimm.

This made Yan Anqing realize that his modification progress had been a bit slow recently.

With two achievements acquired in a row, [Public Enemy of Males] and [Mother of Success], neither had much to do with his current research; they were bonus gains.

"Does [Mother of Success] mean... Jack Grimm's modification failed?"

Yan Anqing's eyes flickered.

It's not a problem to be wrong; the important thing is to admit the mistake and correct it.

Often, failure is the nourishment for success.

However, regarding Jack Grimm's fate, Yan Anqing's thoughts differed from the panda customer service.

Not all the humans he had modified were as morally upright and passionate as Yu Hongyi; there were also those with low moral character.

Those individuals were specifically used as control groups.

Did success really have anything to do with character?

Without wasting too much time pondering this question, Yan Anqing's gaze fell on the game's main interface.

After completing the second stage of the Main Quest, two new options appeared in addition to the usual functions of [Modify] and [Cross-Sectional Mapping].

[Copy] and [Paste].

These two new functions complemented each other.

"Excellent!"

A faint smile appeared on Yan Anqing's face, and he felt pleased.

The emergence of new functions meant that the progress of his world modification would take a leap forward!

From now on, Yan Anqing could completely transform all Silver-Eyed and golden-eyed individuals into beings with "Limitless Cells" without leaving his home.

The problem that had been chasing him like a shadow clinging to his bones finally vanished.

Other backup plans and blueprints could also be put away for now.

It would take two days to make those "superhumans" live up to their names, and researchers around the world could also produce their research results.

Limitless Cells were an entirely new system, and Yan Anqing, alone, couldn't cover every aspect.

Many hands make light work; the research of others would also provide him with inspiration and a foundation.

"Well then, let's start the modifications..."

After finishing his meal, Yan Anqing returned to his dormitory and sat cross-legged on the bed in the five-point meditation posture, closing his eyes. From the outside, he looked like he was meditating to recover his energy.

Xie Zhe, Shang Yin, Shi Yiguang, Li Yanhuang, Zhang Xiaoyue, Miaomiao...

Christian, Aisteron, Ed Bell...

Yan Anqing implanted superpower cells into all the golden-eyed and Silver-Eyed individuals in the database, without exception.

In the short term, there was no fundamental difference between the two.

As for how to distinguish the life essence of golden-eyed and Silver-Eyed individuals in the future, Yan Anqing already had a plan.

After completing all this, his attention focused on the information that had appeared in his mind after the completion of the second stage of the Main Quest.
