Chapter 282 Creativity

"So, what'll we do in here?" Ambrose asked as he floated slightly above the lake.

"In here, we can create anything." Adam said and opened his palm. A small flower appeared from thin air, and its petals bloomed with a mix of bluish colors.

"In here, we also cannot get hurt.

"The Siren's Sedative is so strong that it even makes our souls sleep. This is basically a realm that is one level deeper than the World of Souls. This is the place where souls dream, and we took control of our soul bodies.

"The dreaming world of souls is just one world, where others with dreaming souls can communicate even if they are on the other side of the world."

"I see..." Ambrose looked fascinated, but he still wondered what the so-called game was about.

"Human bodies are fragile, and they have a limit." Adam walked in the air as if he had solid ground below him. "We are different from other races. We are the weakest race.

"Goblins have a much larger mana pool, allowing them to have better talent in magic than humans.

"Orcs have stronger bodies, better vitality, and greater resilience than humans.

"Elves have connections with nature around them. They are able to harness the power of the environment to enhance their abilities.

"Vampires are one of the strongest races. They can use Vampire Light to move at blinding speed; their physical stats are among the highest among races, and they can increase their strength even further by consuming blood.

"There is a reason why humans are food sources for them. We were created to be nothing but food for other races.

"Demons are considered to be the most powerful race. Their Demonic Possession is a threat to be reckoned with, and it is one of the main reasons why they are considered to be the most powerful of any race.

"Demons are also the royalty of the Dark Continent.

"Then, there are Giants that are basically extinct race, and it's unclear whether any of them exist anymore. They have the greatest physical strength and endurance.

"Starborns are one of the most unique kinds. They were born from fragments of fallen stars and possess inhumane strength, vitality, dexterity, and speed. They are also known for their ability to communicate with stars.

"Among the most unique races, there are race called Heavenwalkers. They have the ability to cross dimensions with heaven and the mortal realm. They are said to be children of Ascended Gods that live in heaven."

'The hell?' Ambrose's eyes bulged with surprise.

"Yeah, haha." Adam saw his expression and laughed. "They are known for their wisdom and power. They are, however, hunted by every faction, as they have a way to enter heaven and most want that power for themselves."

Adam's word left Ambrose in awe.

"There are also races called Monsters, Undead, and Lizardfolk." Adam quickly mentioned them. "Monsters have many sub-races that can mostly live in the Dark Continent, and they are mostly subordinates of Demons.

"Undead are zombies that rise during the crescent moon night, and Lizardfolk is an extinct race. They died because they were unable to keep reproducing, and their population declined over time.

"The last race is Heartstoppers, the most beautiful kind with the power to stop a man's heart with one whisper." Adam wryly smiled. "Unfortunately, I hadn't had the pleasure of sleeping with one yet."

"Well, thanks for mentioning all this, but what is the point?" Ambrose asked. "We were about to play some game, no?"

"Yeah." Adam chuckled. "The human race is the weakest race, but there is one thing we are strongest at."

"And that is?" Ambrose raised his eyebrow.

"Creativity!" Adam spread his arms around, and floating pixels began to gather in the air, creating a mesmerizing display.

The pixels turned into solid material.

Blue pillars rose from the ground. They reached the sky, forming a magnificent archway, and then pixels gathered around the pillars and enormous statues that looked like humans holding a sky appeared.

Those statues grabbed the pillars with their stone hands and wrapped their stone fingers around them as if they were holding them in place.

A ceiling then blanketed the sky and fell on top of those pillars, creating a barrier between the humans and the sky.

Inside the newly created temple, Adam created stone pews that created a large circle, and at the center of the circle, a stone platform rose. It was like he created a small colisseum.

Adam then landed on the ground and slammed his hand on the stone platform, causing it to shake and tremble.

At the middle of the platform, a stone figure, around two meters tall, appeared and was holding a stone katana in hand. On his head, there was a wide-brimmed hat, and he wore a high-collared jacket with knee-high boots.

"He is..." Ambrose exclaimed. "Reinhardt..."

Adam stood in front of the stone statue of Reinhardt and said. "I have never had the pleasure of meeting Reinhardt in person, but I have always wanted to. I have only seen pictures of him."

"Why do you want to meet him?" Ambrose asked as he landed on the platform.

"There are only two things I like in this world." Adam touched the stone statue's wide-brimmed hat and said, "Sex and fighting."

"To be more precise, I like fighting a powerful swordsman, so who else than Reinhardt would be a perfect opponent?

"The World's Strongest Swordsman."

Adam then turned to Ambrose and said, "I was truly surprised when reading the newspaper about a week ago. The famed Reinhardt apparently had a disciple.

"I thought nothing of it at first, but then you came to Dark Waters. Not only that, you came straight here. It was like fate was guiding you here."

"Fate..." Ambrose whispered to himself, as that word hadn't been very nice to him lately.

"This is a simple game!" Adam made the stone statue of Reinhardt vanish and walked to the other side of the platform.

He then turned to Ambrose, who was standing about thirty meters away from him, and said.

"We take turns attacking each other with our creations. One has to attack, and the other has to defend somehow.

"The loser is the one who gets his soul killed!"

"Soul killed?" Ambrose frowned, as that sounded very dangerous.

"No worries; only your dream soul dies." Adam said. "Your real soul will be fine, and when you come to Soulscape next time, your dream soul will be completely fine.

"This is a harmless game.

"This is a battle of creativity. So far, I have challenged vampires, orcs, goblins, and even elves to this kind of game, and they haven't beaten me yet.

"I bet everything that only humans can defeat me!"

"Are there some stakes?" Ambrose asked and rubbed his neck.

"Sure, why not." Adam grinned. "If you defeat me, I'll help you kill Mars. However, if you lose, you'll tell Reinhardt to come here."

'Shit.' Ambrose frowned. 'What the hell is this rumor of me being his disciple? I can act like I have sent a message to Reinhardt, but it's up to him whether he wants to come. That is pretty easy.

'However, I feel like it won't end well for me if I cheat, and well, if I tell the truth about the rumor being bullshit, there might be an even worse fate in store for me.

'I suppose I should try winning this. I don't know how strong this Adam is, but having the help of the Sea King would be very important!'

"Are you ready?" Adam asked.

"Yeah, let's do this."
