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

Chapter 80 It's Not Accidental
To be precise, the deity Zhezhou refers to is not simply GOD.

This idea came to me very suddenly.

At first, Jiang Ran thought that Zhe Zhou had been thoroughly brainwashed by GOD, which was why he acted like a fanatical believer.

However, after seeing that enormous eyeball and feeling its terrifying power, Jiang Ran suddenly had a new idea.

Could it be that God is actually just one link in the chain of nurturing the seed?

Could it be... that she's been misunderstanding the subordinate relationship between Zhezhou and GOD all along?
Although all of this was just Jiang Ran's speculation, she really found it hard to believe that the eyeball and terrifying power she saw when the withered branch decomposed belonged to GOD.

Otherwise, based on what Jiang Ran has done so far, God would probably have scattered her ashes a thousand times over.

Jiang Ran even suspected that the reason why God was able to quickly gather so many believers in the previous life was simply because of this holy seed that he didn't know where it came from.

She recalled what Zhe Zhou had said when he came to see her before, which was more about encouraging her to actively embrace this "power".

If in this life, because of the reborn prophet, Jiang Ran gained many things she didn't have in her previous life, which is why Zhe Zhou noticed her, then why did Zhe Zhou choose her in her previous life?
Following this line of thought, perhaps Zhezhou, or the entity behind him, didn't value external things like supplies.

It's more like some kind of... quality that's suitable for the growth of a sacred seed!
Jiang Ran's mind suddenly cleared for a moment, and she finally realized what she had been ignoring all along.

When Zhe Zhou came to find her in her previous life, the second instance had already ended, and the two had not met beforehand.

Back then, GOD's course of action was probably similar to this one. So where would the Holy Seed be?
Jiang Ran subconsciously touched her forehead and suddenly remembered a very small detail.

Back then, Zhe Zhou loved to touch her hair and look at her with gentleness and tolerance.

She had always thought it was because she and Zhe Zhou were companions who could entrust their backs to each other and share life and death. But now, looking back on it all, was Zhe Zhou's gentle gaze directed at her, or... the sacred seed within her?
Jiang Ran instantly got goosebumps all over her body.

Therefore, it was no coincidence that Zhe Zhou approached her in the first place.

But when exactly?
Jiang Ran had no recollection of ever agreeing to accept any kind of supernatural power...

Wait a moment.

When did she begin to trust Zhezhou?

It seems that after he saved him, he asked him something.

Jiang Ran sat down slowly on the sofa with a solemn expression, recalling her time with Zhe Zhou bit by bit.

"I have a very special skill that allows you to share my power for a short period of time. Would you... like to try it?"

"However, you can't complain that my strength is too weak. I just want to give you more power to protect yourself so that you won't be bullied anymore."

"I never imagined our powers would be so compatible. I wish I had met you sooner..."

……

Jiang Ran's face gradually turned ashen with disbelief.

You dog, you've ruined the boat! I swear I won't rest until I kill you!
If Jiang Ran felt nothing but pure disgust and vengeful pleasure when facing Xu Yunxuan, then she also felt a touch of complex emotion when facing Zhe Zhou.

After all, when he protected her back then, he truly risked his life without hesitation, and Jiang Ran deliberately tried to forget all of that. It was precisely because everything was too beautiful when they were together that the pain of the betrayal was so unforgettable.

But as everything slowly came together, the question that had puzzled me before—why Zhe Zhou had gone to such lengths with such genuine emotion—finally became clear.

Everything he did was probably for the purpose of nurturing the holy seed!
Perhaps what the Holy Seed needs is that overly intense emotional fluctuation within her.

So even though she had nothing in her previous life, Zhe Zhou still eagerly came to her door.

Jiang Ran almost tore through the floorboards because she had a moment of weakness back then, and almost wanted to ask Zhe Zhou why he did it!

Very well, since you were willing to risk your life to protect the sacred seed within her before, then leave your life behind this time as well!

Having finally calmed down from her shock and anger, Jiang Ran looked at the chat box, which had received several more messages because she hadn't replied, and gave a cold laugh.

Zhe Zhou: "You have no idea what you're doing. You can't withstand the wrath of the gods!"

Zhezhou: "You'll find out sooner or later what kind of beings you've angered."

Zhezhou: "The aura of the Holy Seed has disappeared, and the gods will descend in person."

Young Miss: "What are you babbling about? I don't understand. Is this the Holy Seed you're talking about? [Image]"

What was sent was the tiny seedling that had slowly sprouted when the blood had stained the ground and the person had died.

Zhe Zhou's tone became visibly panicked: "How could it sprout ahead of time? Damn it, what have you done?! Lin Yang, you have no idea how much disaster you've caused. The gods will surely punish you! Everyone on the bus will die with you!"

Jiang Ran clicked her tongue softly. Zhe Zhou seemed genuinely panicked, not just threatening her.

It seems that to that god, he was just a small fry.

Jiang Ran couldn't understand why, if something was so important, it would have been given to Xue Ran so casually back then.

Are your gods so unreasonable?
Jiang Ran had some doubts. The god Zhe Zhou mentioned might be the owner of the giant eyeball she had seen before.

Actually, compared to Zhe Zhou's claim that the entire vehicle would be destroyed, she was initially more worried that her passive skill might unintentionally turn her into that god's puppet.

But now it seems unlikely, otherwise Zhezhou's tone wouldn't be so urgent.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Ran slowly replied, "I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush. Anyway, the whole car is full of my enemies. If they die, it'll be a perfect wipeout. I'm trading one for so many; it's a huge win no matter how you look at it."

Zhe Zhou: "What do you know! It's all over now. You've destroyed everyone's hope... Because of you, everyone on this train will lose their chance to enter Paro Island!!"

Jiang Ran's expression turned serious. How did this involve the qualification to enter Paro Island again?
What exactly is the relationship between GOD, Broken Boat, Holy Seed, and that giant eyeball?

Jiang Ran lowered her eyes, thinking as she replied.

Young Lady: "Why are you so easily teased? I was just kidding. Your sacred seed has turned into this thing. Do you even know what it's good for? [Image]"

The picture naturally shows that withered branch.
