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

Chapter 68 A beautiful misunderstanding

As the golden light faded, the seedlings' growth gradually came to a standstill.

When the light completely disappeared, Yan Zikai looked as if all his flesh and blood had been drained, turning him into a dried-up corpse.

The seedling, whose roots had completely enveloped his head, slowly withered and turned into a pitch-black branch.

Only then did Jiang Ran realize with horror that she had felt a slight sense of regret when she watched the little seedling's light go out and gradually turn black!

I dare not imagine how terrifying it would be if this golden light could last until the saplings grew up.

This thing is really weird.

It's fair to say that in any game, anything involving psychological aspects is somewhat overpowered.

However, in the upgrade-focused build, while late-game mental ability users may seem invincible, they are often pitifully weak in the early game.

In the train survival game, skills can be used as long as the conditions are met. The only difference is that the range of influence is smaller in the early stages, but getting through the early stages is not difficult.

Especially seeing that this person can now even pass through the train barrier to affect other players...

Jiang Ran mentally raised his danger level a little higher.

*
What Jiang Ran didn't know was that on another train, someone else was mentally raising her level of danger to the maximum.

An elderly man with a white beard, though neatly trimmed, stared intently at the "seed" he had painstakingly placed on the game panel, his face ashen.

The old man's heart bled as he watched the seeds wither away after blooming.

He slammed the crystal glass on the table, and the clear wine instantly spilled out.

Everyone around lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

"who is it!!"

The words, almost squeezed out between his teeth, revealed his inner anger and heartache.

Keep in mind that he sacrificed almost two entire players from the bottom carriages to barely generate a Holy Seed.

He almost exhausted all his resources to gain the opportunity to spread the holy seed to other trains.

After all, the two trains he's on now have been almost completely drained by him.

Leaving aside the cost of crossing the train barrier, he wouldn't even be able to recoup the faith points he spent on generating the Holy Seed!

It's as if everything he did after boarding the train and acquiring this incredible skill was completely wasted!

If it weren't for the fact that the train could repair diseases in people, he would have been so angry that he would have suffered a stroke.

Just a day ago, the old man was still dreaming that once the seed on Bloodstained's body had absorbed enough energy, he would recycle it directly.

The harvested Faith Points will help him pass through the barrier more easily, thus spreading the Holy Seed to more trains.

Once the snowball starts rolling, it's only a matter of time before he takes control of all the trains.

But now...

Normally, the Holy Seed has the opportunity to actively select the person it deems most promising as the implantation subject.

But who knew that the player named "Miss" was completely impervious to reason!
Unable to win over the young lady, he could only choose one randomly. He thought that with the blessing of the Holy Domain, he wouldn't end up in too bad a state.

They actually chose a useless person!
It's only been less than two days!!
The old man's breathing was heavy, but he had experienced much and knew that the outcome was irreversible. He tried to compose himself, closed his eyes, and used another skill: Bone Tracking.

[Skill. Bone Tracking: After using this skill, you can spend 100 health points to investigate the relationships of players you have marked with this skill's depth within the last five minutes before their death. If any of these relationships involve people you have interacted with, you can directly obtain their identity information.]

Soon, a list appeared in front of the old man, from the five minutes before his death stained with blood to the moment he finally lost his life, from a large number of people at the beginning to only two IDs remaining in the end.

Miss, and... a little spinning top?
The young lady approached him first when she broke through the barrier, but where did this little spinning top come from?

Unable to figure it out, the old man could only put it aside for the time being and stare intently at the words "young lady".

Since we can't subdue them, we can only treat them as enemies from now on.

No rush, we'll have a chance to meet sooner or later after the trains merge.

Unaware that her unintentional actions would directly interrupt the development of a powerful opponent, Jiang Ran did not dare to touch the dark branch after dealing with the Bloodstained one.

But I don't dare to just throw it away carelessly, in case it grows bigger in the wind?
She simply had Xiaobai use its mechanical arm to collect it, put it into an empty silver treasure chest, and stuff it into her backpack compartment.

At this moment, Jiang Ran had no idea what kind of surprise this seemingly ordinary tree branch would bring her.

She simply took a picture of blood and posted it in the chat room.

Young Miss: "[Image], is that all? I really hope these provocateurs are as tough as they are with their mouths."

The young lady said, "Think carefully before bothering me again, otherwise, I don't mind holding everyone accountable."

As soon as these two messages were sent, the previously sparse group chat exploded!

Muscular Meatball: "It really is true, the blood-stained profile picture went completely black! Holy crap, you're still the same young lady... You offended someone in the morning and left in the afternoon? If I had been this efficient when writing my thesis, my supervisor would have treated me like royalty!"

Ah, right, right, right: "It was all a hallucination before I died from overworking my thesis."

"It must be someone in the guild who betrayed Bloodstained's whereabouts. Maybe they want to use Miss to kill Bloodstained and take over for themselves. Being used and still so smug, I can't comment on that."

Mahou Shoujo: "If you don't want to comment, then don't comment. I vaguely remember your ID. How come you're still alive? You're always calling on others to contribute and asking to join the Holy Land Guild. Why don't you just say that everyone should contribute for you?"

Teacup Duoduo: "@Light Breeze. Stop jumping around, or the young lady will be your next target."

Not a buddy: "Wait a minute, what happens to his guild if that guy dies from bloodshed?"

Ah, right, right: "So, the young lady is a person you can get along with, adhering to the principle of 'every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor.'"

……

Yun Danfengqing was quite obedient to advice; once told not to jump around, she immediately stopped.

Those who have survived this long in a dungeon are no ordinary people. With the second dungeon finally nearing its end and more and more avatars going black, most people are actually quite willing to chat for a bit.

Especially with Jiang Ran's intervention, many teams that were initially exploited have now begun to resemble normal guilds.

While exploitation is ultimately unavoidable, for most people, joining an organization seems to offer hope for the future.

Jiang Ran immediately closed the chat history and began exercising without fail.

After practicing for a while, she began to get used to her now overly strong body, and it felt wonderful.
