The ability of the Creator is to create a world of their own design and to steal the powers of those who intrude into that world. As their ability increases, the range of the created world also expands, but the method to break it remains the same: find their true form.
To some extent, finding the true form of the Creator is easier because they must become something visible to their prey.
It can be said that it is both easy and difficult. In a mirage, as long as one discovers something unreasonable, there is a possibility of finding a flaw. However, in the Creator's world, everything unreasonable is reasonable, and everything abnormal is normal; it completely depends on imagination, existing as a separate world.
The Creator can manipulate everything in their world: time, wind, and the growth of trees. They could be a stone, a patch of weeds, or an animal...
What’s worse is that the more you act, the faster your energy is drained. In the end, you could be reduced to a dried corpse. This might seem like a better outcome, but sadly, the corpse could be used as a weapon, just like that female corpse from earlier.
The only way to mitigate this is to not think, not speak, not move, and not use any abilities. But doing so means you won't be able to find the Creator's hiding place, leading to death regardless.
Of course, Creators are not inherently powerful; they are extremely difficult to survive. Timing, location, and circumstances must all align perfectly. Because possessing such an ability emits a scent that attracts various zombies and monsters, they are essentially living targets.
Human bases typically do not accept them because it would attract too many monsters. Outside, it’s equivalent to being sentenced to death.
Do not think of this ability as invincible; they can only freely absorb energy and supply their created world once they reach the Sixth Level. Before reaching the Sixth Level, even fighting a Second-Level Zombie is challenging.
As for how he knows about the existence of Creators, it’s because he has captured one during a mission.
At that time, the doctor discovered this type of ability user and was very interested, so he "invited" him to capture one.
He searched for a long time and finally found a Creator hiding in an Abandoned Building. He began the pursuit but unexpectedly entered a classroom upon stepping into the hallway. The blackboard read "Be a good person and take exams honestly," which made him sweat slightly.
However, that Creator was only at Third Level and couldn’t manipulate time in their world; thus, it was only as large as a classroom and was weak beyond measure. Therefore, he wasn’t worried; instead, he felt somewhat surprised.
In the end, he discovered that he had turned into a light bulb on his head. After just half an hour, he couldn't hold on any longer and revealed his true self, which he was easily captured and taken back.
After that, the doctor ordered everyone to kill on sight if they saw Creator, and he didn't take this matter to heart.
He never thought he would encounter Creator again, especially at this level.
"Ha, ha."
At this moment, Xuan Mo was breathing erratically. Due to his weakened body, he was sweating profusely. If it weren't for the fact that he was an Ability user with strong physical qualities, he would have been drained long ago.
And in this world.
He looked at the boundless darkness, the blood rain falling from the sky, and those tombstones that had come closer to him, frowning slightly.
Could one of these tombstones be his true self?
Unfortunately, no one answered the questions in his mind; everything had to rely on his own thoughts. Just as he was about to take another look, the mounds behind the graves suddenly began to shake. Before long, red-clad female ghosts crawled out from within.
At a glance, there were countless of them; for every tombstone, there was a female ghost. The key point was that this group of female ghosts was all facing him, restless and eager to move.
"Oh no..."
He felt goosebumps all over. Although he knew these were likely corpses, the identical clothing, the eerie red garments, and the terrifying smiles...
W must have predicted Creator's power long ago to issue such an order. But why not eliminate them completely?!
"Wow."
His vision went dark, and a sense of helplessness instantly engulfed him. When he opened his eyes again, the tombstones were no more than a hundred meters away. Soon, those female ghosts would rush over and tear him to pieces. As for why they didn't come directly, it seemed that the Creator had to abide by certain rules.
He guessed this correctly.
At that moment, the Creator looked at the prey in his world, a twisted smile spreading across his face, feeling that it could all end soon. Suddenly sensing something, he looked outward and discovered that another woman had appeared in his world. With a sinister grin, a flash of white light appeared in his hand.
"Caw caw~"
Xuan Mo was once again drawn to the circling crow. Its feathers were glossy, its eyes lively, and its calls resonant, forming a stark contrast to the weak Xuan Mo, as if mocking him.
Xuan Mo looked at the crow and then around at the environment. Suddenly, he guessed where the Creator was. At the same time, the scenery before him flickered again; those tombstones and female ghosts were now only ten meters away, almost face to face.
He activated his Ability and rushed toward the direction of the crow, his body enveloped by a whirlwind as he leaped onto the Strange Tree, striking toward the crow.
Whether it was due to the wind boosting his speed or something else, the crow seemed momentarily stunned and did not fly away, staring blankly at him while the Creator's smile grew wider.
Unfortunately, in the next second, the Creator's smile vanished as he was sent flying, rolling on the ground twice and spitting out blood, looking at Xuan Mo in astonishment.
"Crash."
The world shattered, power restored. Xuan Mo stood there experiencing the regained strength and smiled at the Creator, who was wrapped up so tightly that not even an inch of skin was exposed. "I almost fell for your trick."
The Creator was startled and hurriedly rolled and crawled away in one direction.
After the Creator's world was shattered, a buffer period was required before a new world could be created, lasting up to a year or even longer. During this buffer period, everyone lived like ordinary people.
However, he still feared it was a trap and hurried to catch up. To his surprise, as he turned a corner, the person vanished. At the same time, a figure charged at him. His expression changed, and he sidestepped to avoid the attack while simultaneously launching his own counterattack, sending the assailant flying.
In the instant the person fell to the ground, he pounced on them and was about to deliver a finishing blow when he recognized their face. His hand paused, and emotions like joy and pain flashed across his face.
The woman had a cold expression. Upon realizing who she had attacked, intense hatred flickered in her eyes.
"It’s you!"
Xuan Mo quickly jumped up and took two steps back. "Wei... Wei, what are you doing here?"
Tian Weiwei forcefully closed her eyes and then opened them again, revealing a calm demeanor.
"This is my survival base; of course, I am here."
Xuan Mo still had some doubts about whether this was an illusion. But upon seeing Tian Weiwei's pale face and her labored breathing, he asked, "Are you injured?"
Tian Weiwei glanced at him and replied flatly, "My power has been drained."
Xuan Mo questioned, "I just shattered that world; how could another one appear so quickly?"
Tian Weiwei thought of Sun Bei's death whenever she looked at Xuan Mo. She gritted her teeth but understood that the priority was to leave quickly. She coldly responded to Xuan Mo's words, "This base is the world he created."
"Huh?"
Xuan Mo thought she had misheard and uncertainly said, "Are you saying that the alley I just passed through is part of this world? I only escaped from that alley and did not leave the world he created?"
Tian Weiwei nodded slightly, looking somewhat fatigued. "Yes, it's like the base is a playground. We are just experiencing one attraction after another. In reality, what we need to do is not to experience these attractions but to avoid them and find the administrator of the playground."
"I initially thought this was an illusion, but later realized it was not. After finding a loophole and escaping the day before yesterday, I encountered a companion who had already escaped for six days. When he went to find food yesterday, he entered another world right in front of me as if nothing was wrong. When I chased after him, that world was sealed off by a Transparent Barrier. I could see him, but he couldn't see me."
"At that moment, I realized that I hadn't escaped at all. After he killed a crow, he was devoured by a group of red-clad female ghosts right before my eyes, leaving no trace behind."
"That was what I just experienced."
Xuan Mo felt overwhelmed; that crow was merely a distraction. The real loophole was that tree.
But now, there was nothing more to say...
After exchanging information and recounting their experiences over the past few days, Xuan Mo suddenly said, "Wait, are you saying that companion survived perfectly fine for seven days?"
Tian Weiwei frowned slightly, a hint of understanding flashing across her cold face as she retorted, "Perhaps the grace period is seven days, but it could also be because he was lucky, right?"
"But now, we can only take a gamble."
Tian Weiwei looked at Xuan Mo with serious eyes and slightly turned her gaze away as she coldly said, "This base is neither too big nor too small. Finding the Creator who is observing us within seven days is not easy, and I only have five days left."
