Doomsday Train, I went crazy by hoarding billions of items.

Chapter 169 The Selection That Began Many Years Ago

Looking at the bewildered GOD in front of her, Jiang Ran suddenly thought of the moon in her diary, and a thought struck her.

She said softly, "Before entering the game, did you see any memorable images resembling eyeballs?"

Although her tone was calm, Jiang Ran's gaze was fixed on GOD's face, not missing a single change in his expression.

When GOD heard Jiang Ran's words, he was first taken aback, and then a thoughtful look flashed across his face: "Speaking of which, more than ten years ago, I seem to have taken a very strange photo when I went out."

"Even though I took a picture of the lake from above, the final result looked like a strange eye staring at me."

"If it were just an illusion, it wouldn't be so strange, but after that, I kept dreaming about that lake, as if... something was calling me."

"I was worried that it was some kind of evil spirit, so I stayed in the church and never went to that lake again."

Jiang Ran's eyes lit up: Sure enough!

Although I don't know the exact time when I drew that eyeball in my diary, if I remember correctly, I was about five or six years old at the time, which matches what GOD said about more than ten years ago.

So, did the "selection" of big eyes begin more than a decade ago?
Is its selection criterion to see who in the real world can "sense" it?

That makes sense, but why is it that when both are targeted, GOD gets the Holy Seed and helps him become number one on the leaderboard, while for me it becomes finding Zhe Zhou to manipulate her emotions and ultimately deliver a fatal blow?

Although Jiang Ran didn't need such treatment for the Holy Seed, being treated differently was still unpleasant.

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Jiang Ran was too lazy to deal with GOD anymore, so she said perfunctorily, "Oh, that's such a pity. That eye was the summons of the gods. But it doesn't matter, after all, many years later, you still received the protection of the gods."

After saying that, he didn't care what GOD's expression was and left with Xiaobai.

GOD was left standing there, shocked and annoyed, momentarily forgetting that he still didn't know why the "outlet" had come to his place.

Back in the villa, Jiang Ran threw Majik out.

Those wooden pegs did look quite interesting; even after leaving the church, the wounds still looked as if they had been freshly made.

Jiang Ran gestured to Xiao Bai to pull out the wooden nails.

Although Majik looked to be in some pain, he visibly breathed a sigh of relief after all the nails were pulled out, and the bloody wounds finally began to heal slowly.

Jiang Ran looked at the blood-stained wooden nails, then with a flick of her finger, put them all into her backpack.

The pale-faced Majik naturally noticed Jiang Ran's actions and gave a wry smile: "This is a good thing. It might be very useful in this instance."

Jiang Ran glanced at him, tossed him a set of clothes, and pointed to the maid's room on the first floor, saying, "Go take a shower first, and then you can stay there for the time being."

Majik nodded, then, as if remembering something, asked Jiang Ran, "What information were you trying to get from that question you asked that old codger earlier?"

Jiang Ran didn't want to say anything at first, but then she thought that Majik might not be so simple either. After all, not everyone can obtain the power of an evil god so easily and escape unscathed.

So he simply told Majik his long-held speculations about the big eyeball, including the strange moon he had seen and the lake that God had seen.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Jiang Ran's words, Majik's expression also became very strange: "What if I said that I had also seen the eye on that lake surface?"

Jiang Ran smiled and said, "It doesn't seem too surprising." After all, a lot has happened to Majik, and he is very close to GOD. It's not surprising that he had such an "adventure".

However, Jiang Ran suddenly became curious about how GOD and Majik had broken up.

When facing Majik, she didn't think about the concept of "tact" at all; she asked directly.

Majik adapted well to this, and not only adapted well, but even acted as if to say, "You finally asked me."

His pale lips were chapped from blood loss and dehydration. He didn't rush to answer Jiang Ran's question, but instead licked his lips and asked Xiao Bai first, "Is there anything to drink?"

Xiao Bai looked at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran waved her hand casually.

Xiao Bai then took out a glass bottle containing red liquid from his spatial storage: "This is a blood-nourishing soup that the master tried to concoct before. Give it a try."

Looking at the viscous liquid in the bottle, which was almost sticking to the sides, Majik said with a serious expression, "...Could you give me some water first? I'm a little thirsty."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai took out a bottle of purified water and said innocently, "Here, just take a sip of water and a sip of the blood-replenishing soup."

Jiang Ran looked at Majik's resolute expression and almost laughed: "That's enough, you're not going to drink yourself to death."

Majik gave a wry smile, frowned, and gulped down the large bottle of herbal medicine. Then, he eagerly began sipping water.

This soup is actually spicy!

It was not only spicy, but also sour. He strongly suspected that Jiang Ran had made it with a sour and spicy hot pot broth, but he dared not say so.

He discovered that after drinking the herbal soup, his previously weak body actually felt much better!
Majik looked at Jiang Ran with some surprise, only to see Jiang Ran say with little interest, "Can I speak now?"

He came to his senses, nodded and said, "I grew up in an orphanage. The reason I followed God is because one day he came and said he wanted to select a few divine servants."

"Several children my age were selected, and they were all very happy at the time, thinking that they would never go hungry again."

At this point, Majik suddenly let out a short, cold laugh, his expression turning extremely indifferent.

Jiang Ran had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

Sure enough, Majik continued with a mocking expression, "You know, some people just like innocent and pure children, and if they are also tainted with holiness, then they are even more... in high demand."

Jiang Ran's face showed disgust; she already knew what Majik had left unsaid.

She never imagined that God, who appeared so noble and willing to sacrifice himself for his beliefs, was actually so filthy inside.

His ability to become number one in his previous life was perhaps inseparable from this early "accumulation".

No wonder that even though GOD seemed to value Majik highly, Majik was inexplicably manic and self-destructive, and ultimately even repaid kindness with enmity by killing GOD.

This proves the saying, "Even the most hateful person has a pitiable side."

Jiang Ran thought expressionlessly, "I should have just killed GOD."
