"They're slow to react"
A 2-meter-long worm-like creature was slowly moving together with a ball of fluff.
"Look at the wardens, they've noticed"
Lin and one of the Creator's tentacles had arrived at the passage where the control room was, but this time, they didn't enter the passage and instead observed from a corner.
At the center of the passage, two clusters of light had entered the control room at the top.
"They've closed the prison again" The Creator spoke: "But they didn't notice that I've left. They are powerless to capture a free being, so I've won"
Lin was surprised to see how talkative the Creator was. But perhaps they had always been like this?
Perhaps it was only in a situation where there was no conflict between them and the Creator that they could communicate with.
The ball of fluff spoke: "Only a part of you managed to escape"
"Indeed, a part of me. This part also has the perfect ability to accomplish many things, things that they couldn't even imagine. Now, we need to leave this place" the Creator said as it crawled towards the other side.
"You seem to know this place very well" the ball of fluff spoke as it followed: "You said that you wanted to explain this place"
"Indeed, they told me. They let me see everything" Now at a corner, the creator stopped, and a structure that looked like an eye suddenly appeared on the head of the tentacle. It looked to both sides and continued to move forward. At the same time, it said, "This is what they call the 'Land of Records.' All the life they have encountered, all of them. Will be kept here … "
"But to the creatures that are kept here. This place is a prison. Their freedom is forever imprisoned and will never end. "
"If they're kept here …" the ball of fluff asked: "Why is there a mechanism to release them?"
"There are a few special things among them, the higher-ups" The Creator explained: "These special higher-ups will not personally come here to inspect or observe, they can only bring the things here for them to admire. Because of that, the creatures here can be released"
The reason why the creatures in the prison could be released was because the 'higher-ups' wanted to admire them?
"High-ups? Are they the administrators of this place? "the ball of fluff asked.
"No. Only a few higher-ups "the Creator replied:" There are no administrators here, nor are there any in this world "
"You … understand this Dream World?"
"You're very interested in this place, fluff, that's right … 'Dream World'? They do look alike, but they aren't. " The creator said, "There is no manager here, but there is a ruler. This is not a dream of something or an individual. It is connected by countless' things'."
"So, nothing can change this place. When it was established, the rules were already set. However, it is also similar to a dream, so when it is affected by something powerful enough, there will be some small changes, but these changes will be quickly corrected and disappear … Stop for now. "The creator suddenly stopped as he spoke.
"Look at those prison guards."
The pompoms and the creator came to a large hall. This prison was mostly rectangular, and it was rare to see such a spacious hall.
The creator and the pompom hid at the entrance to the hall and watched the situation inside.
There was light in the hall, and several prison guards were gathered there. They seemed to be discussing something.
"They won't be nervous, have no fear, and have no thoughts. If they discover mistakes, they will correct them, but they won't pursue the root cause of those mistakes." The creator said, "Therefore, when the captured object escapes their sight, they will not continue to pursue …"
"The only thing that troubles me is … I don't know how to kill them."
As the creator spoke, it spat out a round object from the end of its tentacle, and then threw it towards the opposite passage with great force.
The moment the stone made a sound, the prison guards all flew into that passage.
"A simple method that can deceive both simple and complex creatures. Come here, this is our chance to leave." The creator quickly climbed to the center of the hall, and the pompoms also flew over …
In the center of the hall, there were stones of different shapes and sizes where the prison guards had gathered.
"From here on, their tolerance for free people ends," the creator said. "Even if a free person can escape the prison guards' pursuit, he will be lost in this prison forever until he is caught again."
"Only those who understand them can leave." The creator's tentacle smashed all the stones on the ground into pieces. Then, two smaller tentacles reached out from the end of the tentacle and arranged all the pieces on the ground.
"Only the right amount of force can create the right amount of fragments. No matter the number, weight, or position, a single mistake means failure. The one who arranged the stones will be imprisoned, but if it succeeds, it will form …"
The creator's tentacle arranged the stone fragments together. The countless large and small stones looked like …
"This is the sky of a certain place?" the pompoms asked.
"That's right, pompom," the creator said. "This is the sky that can be seen from their home. I have seen it before, I have memories of it." Saying so, he also arranged the last stone fragment.
Crack! A sound seemed to be coming from afar …
"Now that the door has been opened, we only have 30 seconds." The creator quickly crawled in a direction, and the pompoms followed.
"Do they have to arrange it every time they want to leave?" the pompoms asked the creator as they hurried.
"No, after obtaining permission, they can freely enter and exit." The creator crawled on the ground at an extremely fast speed. Soon, they had reached the end of the tunnel, and a small gap appeared under the wall at the end.
"Speed up!" The creator suddenly retracted its tail and bounced. Its entire body flew out, and the pompoms also sped up to follow it, flying out of the gap under the wall.
Although it was called a gap, it was still about a meter tall, so it was not difficult to pass through.
"Success." But when the dark world appeared in front of Lin again, she knew they had come out.
"Actually, it is not that troublesome." the pompoms said. "We only need to wait for a prison guard to come out or go in."
"Is that how you got in? Pompoms. "the creator said." It is possible to enter, but entering and exiting are not the same … "
