"I could kill him," Ursula said sinisterly. "It would only take a moment. I could break his neck."

The cheetahs who took action today were from McKeon's faction, and Ursula was very unhappy with them.

"You can, but not now."

The black-haired boy blinked, looking very harmless: "Don't you think this ability... is very manipulable?"

Xia Zuo raised his hand and said, "But when a fight really starts, there are also big flaws and disadvantages - I mean if you encounter a talent that can attack unexpectedly, such as Ursula."

"Who said I wanted to fight?" Xizel raised the corner of his lips slightly and said softly: "Isn't this... the best creation tool?"

As long as you have the right materials.

Whether it is a sniper rifle or a rocket launcher, an eavesdropping device or a mechanical combat force, it can be formed in a very short time.

It would be a waste if this ability was only used to randomly transform into the simplest shape and be used as a fighting tool.

"Creation tool?" Xia Zuo vaguely understood something. Although he himself was not sure about the true value of this ability, it did not prevent him from knowing that his friend would definitely find a way to use it:

"If it's useful to Caesar... then it's a shame."

He thought for a moment and said, "How about we try to recruit him?"

Xizel shook his head: "Don't do things that are too cost-effective."

Moreover, Mikan cannot achieve the level of precision he requires, and has requirements for materials. The more difficult the material is to deform and stretch, the more energy he consumes when using his ability.

If he wants to make what he wants, McCann can't do it.

Then why not let this ability...be used by someone else?

With this sentence, César discarded all other distracting thoughts and let it appear clearly and accurately in his mind.

After the pit was dug, Xizel continued with a normal expression:

"But I think he won't attack you for now, but will test your strength first."

For example, Xia Zuo has a high martial arts value, so in which aspect of his martial arts value does his talent improve?

"During this period, you can just use him as a training ground. When I say he attacked you, I mean he wanted to kill you on the spot."

The black-haired boy said calmly, "For the sake of his ability, he won't choose a place that's too open, but it's unlikely to be a cell either. He should ask you out."

"So..." He changed the subject, lowering his eyes to hide the bloody indifference in his blue pupils, "I will ask Ursula to help me control him in the room where he is waiting for you to come over."

“Xia Zuo, when the time comes, you just need to wait, don’t come over.”

Xia Zuo: "Okay."

Xia Zuo's inner thoughts: QAQ

Obviously, this kind of heavy work was exclusively for him in the past.

However, seeing that his friend's state had become a little different, Xia Zuo wisely chose to shut up and nodded obediently.

It didn't matter if Caesar didn't tell him the complete plan, he just had to do his part. Otherwise, it would cause trouble for Caesar.

And if he waited until Mikan asked him out before taking action, others would only think that he killed Mikan, and Caesar would not be implicated. If he reduced the attention on him, he would be much safer.

Xia Zuo didn't realize that his subconscious mind was already convinced that McKen would not come back, and he was still happy that he could help César and even analyzed some things.

He never thought about whether what Césaire and Ursula did alone might be harmful to him.

Should I say he is worthy of being the protagonist of a hot-blooded comic... Xizel lowered his eyes, but still explained: "We won't let you go. This has something to do with our talents."

"Some scenes... with your talent attributes, it's not appropriate to see them."

The black-haired boy sighed softly, then said with a smile.

But Ursula was different.

He had a feeling they would work well together.

"'Our talent'? This is the first time I've heard Caesar mention his talent!" Xia Zuo's eyes lit up: "So, Caesar is ready to tell us about your talent?"

"Yeah. If it succeeds this time." The black-haired boy lowered his head slightly, his long eyelashes hiding the calmness in his eyes that was completely inconsistent with the expression on his face. He sighed: "I didn't tell you before... because my talent is a bit brutal when I use it."

Xia Zuo's eyes widened: "Huh?"

What talent would be brutal when used?

"... Caesar, you are not also inclined to the dark side, right?"

If this is true, I feel like I'm completely out of place QAQ.

"No, I don't have obvious preferences or restraint chains." Xizel shook his head: "I am a 'white talent'."

Most of the people with talents have abilities that are more obviously biased towards light, darkness, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, which are called "biased talents". For example, Xia Zuo is "biased towards light". If Ursula is classified by talent, she is "biased towards darkness".

Each biased talent has a restraint chain. They can restrain others, but can also be restrained by other biased talent holders.

However, the closer they are to their own preferred attributes and the purer their abilities, the stronger their own talents will be.

Talents that are not very obvious are called "white talents".

For example, McCann and Cheetah.

There is no difference in high or low between these two talent categories. The rarity and strength also depend on the talent performance of different people. They are just divided differently.

"White Talent?" Xia Zuo was still excited. "There are many abilities with similarities among the biased talents, but it is said that there are very few abilities with similarities among the white talents!"

"Stop brainwashing." Xizel glanced at him and said, "You have this illusion only because there are too many types of white talents. For white talents like Cheetah, how many substitutes do you think there are?"

Xia Zuo: "... probably, quite a lot."

Xizel smiled and said nothing more.

What about the Federal Central Prison, the Federation where ordinary people belong, or even the picket tower that is almost entirely populated by gifted holders?

Eastwood Prison for the Insane, where high-risk groups, mental patients and top talent holders gather, is a truly fun place.

So the prison for the insane must be full of mentally ill people. If they were just insane and not very dangerous, why would everyone avoid this prison?

"High-risk group exile site" and "prison", these two terms alone perfectly explain everything.

…

After saying goodbye to Xia Zuo, Xizel returned to his room alone.

Then, it was discovered that there was an extra camera and a bug sewn into his other system.

“…”

The black-haired boy lowered his eyes slightly. His originally hazy blue eyes, when covered by shadows, looked like the surface of the sea in the dark night.

Silent and cold.

He pointed at the uniform with his fingertips, then smiled and went upstairs to find Kevin.

When Kevin opened the door, he saw Cesar with his hair down and a gentle attitude, and a perfect smile on his face.

The black-haired boy asked, "Mr. Kevin, can you lend me a lighter?"

Kevin was distracted at first, but when he heard this, he became alert and curious: "I do have one, but what do you want the lighter for? It's contraband in the prison. I got it from a prisoner."

"If you're worried, you can supervise."

The black-haired boy said gently.

So Kevin followed him downstairs curiously, and saw the black-haired boy still wearing the same smile that seemed to have remained unchanged from just now, and calmly picked up another uniform that he had placed on the table.

Then, he lit it with a lighter.

Kevin: “???”

"Why are you burning it? Aren't you going to change your uniform?" Kevin didn't know what this man was thinking, he just burned his uniform...

etc.

Yes, if there was nothing wrong, why would he burn the uniform?

Kevin looked at the expression of the black-haired boy. He, who had already claimed to have seen countless people of all kinds, suddenly shuddered for no reason.

"Mr. Kevin, just think of me as a kid with a bad temper." After watching the uniform burn to ashes, the black-haired boy tilted his head and smiled and blinked his eyes: "Please tell the administrator to prepare another set for me. Thank you very much."

Kevin nodded quickly.

The door of the room was closed again.

The black-haired boy stood behind the door, slightly sideways, his eyes seemed to sweep across the head of the bed unintentionally, and he raised the corners of his lips slightly.

…

"This kid..." The second administrator, who was startled by the smile, narrowed his eyes, suppressed the discomfort in his heart, and turned the screen to the person next to him: "Aiden, what do you think of him?"

"Is this the supervisor who worked with Gary?" One of the A-level talent holders in the prison played with the steel beads in his hand and examined the black-haired boy: "He seems to be quite smart."

"I think so too." Administrator No. 2 frowned. "And the new critical-level guy beat Leopard half to death in less than fifteen minutes. The people in the infirmary said that it might be difficult for him to stand up again."

I don’t know what kind of talent it is that can defeat a leopard.

"Oh, if I hadn't checked the files several times and found out that he was indeed an orphan with no background or connections, and if Wilson in the Gray Moon District had never had any contact with Gary, I would have thought that he was secretly trained by Gary..."

Aiden's eyes were cold. "He is just like McKen. He is an ordinary person in the public files. Isn't it better to go to the patrol tower instead of staying here if he doesn't hide his identity as a gift holder?"

"All I can say is that he and Gary were connected from the beginning - before he came here."

Unfortunately, in the Federation where most of the people are ordinary people, it is too difficult to find people with talents among the prisoners, and Gary is keeping a close eye on them, so it is difficult for them to take any action now.

"If it weren't for the fact that Administrator No. 1 was in a position to have access to the thing hidden in the prison..."

Administrator No. 2's face was a little distorted.

Gary, that idiot, has a treasure trove but he doesn't know how to make use of it. No wonder he's been a prison administrator for almost his entire life!

"Don't worry, Xia Zuo Kaili may not be a match for McKen." Aiden shook his head: "In terms of accumulated experience in fighting against enemies, the two of them are one in heaven and one in earth."

Not to mention that Mikan always wears a ring on his hand, which allows him to use his talent at any time, and his ability has reached the second level of B grade. Even if I want to take him down, I can only choose to take him by surprise.

How can Xia Zuo, whose talent is probably related to himself, and Xizel, who is obviously biased in one subject, defeat him?
