I Became a Creator God Through a City-Building Game

[February 28, 2026]

In 3016, technology has advanced at a breakneck pace. The ruling elite control all the resources, the middle class is entertained to death, and the lower class struggles to survive.

Jin Lianyu is an unregistered citizen, born with limb deformities. To earn money for prosthetics, she becomes the final beta tester for the urban development game Golden City. Winning will earn her official residency, as well as a huge sum of money.

In the game, she renovates a dilapidated city, establishes a new regime, and makes a bid for the highest position.

Her city ranks first on the entire server in politics, economy, military strength, and resident happiness.

But this world is a little chaotic. It's populated not only by people, but also by gods.

Earth has fallen into chaos, with evil gods running rampant. Twisted compound eyes watch every moving body, and tangled tentacles writhe in the fog like something out of a nightmare. The cities tremble, trapped among them, and the residents are about to become playthings of the evil gods.

How can she allow that? This is her city.

With her achievements nearly maxed out, she decides to try killing a god and taking its place.

It's only a game, after all.

When the game ends, she gets her prosthetics and prepares to enjoy life as a wealthy woman.

But who could have guessed that the game would really invade reality, and that the twisted poisonous fog would begin to consume the world?

Their intoxicated, dreamlike existence is shattered. The crazed people murmur delirious words from the abyss.

But her account has arrived along with them.

[Welcome, Creator God Linlang.]

[You have marked a location.]

[All your followers have answered your call.]

[They cry your name and wave their banners, willing to offer you their bodies and souls, to become the steps beneath your feet as you create a new world.]
