Chapter 113
The comic "Absolute Talent" has been updated.
This is an extremely rare extra chapter. Countless comic readers clicked on it excitedly, and then their eyes lost their focus.
The subtle weirdness of the comic's plot begins with Xia Zuo.
When Xia Zuo and Yalong were facing off, the appearance of the warden completely ignited everyone's enthusiasm for Cesar Crest, and a round of CP fans went on a frenzy. But soon, they realized that things were not that simple -
"Cesare will die."
Xia Zuo finally saw the black-haired girl and heard these words from her mouth.
The barrage exploded immediately.
[What the hell? ?!]
"Say it again, I didn't hear you clearly. Who did you say died?!"
[Wait, what's going on? What did I miss again?]
Did we miss something?
[So this is why I couldn't sense Ze Shen before? ]
[Help, don't mess with me ah ah ah]
Fortunately, the comics didn't deliberately keep the audience in suspense, and immediately revealed Ursula's experience in the library.
As the plot slowly progresses, the cover of the wordless book in the library becomes lighter and lighter in color, and the information it reveals becomes more and more explosive.
The atmosphere in the comics gradually becomes tense and solemn.
At the same time, the comic also interweaves events that happened in another place:
When Ursula was looking through the wordless books in the library, Xia Zuo was plotted against by the sparrow keeper and Yalong, and in extreme anger, he accidentally killed the sparrow keeper.
The comics showed it clearly - Aaron had been watching this side with great interest from the very beginning, with a faint dark red power emerging from his hands, subtly influencing the actions of the brown-haired boy, and he even secretly exchanged a glance with the bird breeder.
A less saturated memory scene flashed by. The person in the picture was wearing a black robe, which was the iconic attire of the Patrol Tower.
"We must find a powerful gifted person who is crazy enough and willing to sacrifice his life..."
"Our plan can only work if he uses the energy left over from his own death to power this thing, and if the warden happens to be nearby—"
"We will replace the soul of the warden of the Eastwood Prison with the soul we control. Only by controlling him can we control this prison!"
【? ? WTF, taking over someone else's body?!】
[How dare you do this? This is so cruel!]
[And in front of Xia Bao... If Xia Bao knew that it was him who killed this person, causing Xi Ze's body to be taken over by someone else and allowing Xi Ze's consciousness to be eroded by someone else, he would definitely go crazy, right?!]
[I can't bear to watch anymore, Warden, run!]
However, the wailing wishes in the barrage did not come true.
Because they soon noticed that the comics contained onomatopeia for footsteps and a shot of a pair of tactical boots walking slowly in a certain direction.
——Just when the sparrow keeper’s neck was broken and he fell to the ground, the warden finally appeared in everyone’s sight.
The black-haired young man was still wearing the warden's uniform. After he stood still, the black cloak, which was lifted by the wind, slowly drooped down, with the tail almost hanging to the ground. It was extremely thick and heavy, adding an extra sense of coldness and solemnity to his whole appearance.
At this moment, the pair of misty blue eyes were still slightly lowered, looking at the scene in front of him almost calmly, as if he was not aware of the coming danger at all.
The brown-haired boy suddenly trembled all over. He had discovered the warden's presence.
"Don't come over here!!!"
A voice of extreme sorrow, fear and pain exploded in his ears.
At that moment, a barely perceptible flicker finally appeared in those misty blue eyes. The young man raised his eyebrows slightly, his irises shrank slightly, as if vaguely thinking of something, and was a little dazed.
...At some point in the past, it seemed that there was also a familiar person with such a painful and broken expression, as if he wanted to grasp something but could not grasp anything.
Of course, comic readers will not miss this close-up that takes up an entire frame, but the key point that comic readers care about now... is obviously not this.
[I wish I could just pick up my Ze Shen and run away. Ze Shen, there are some wicked people trying to harm you! ! ]
[It's over, it's over. Could it be that Ze Shen saw Xia Bao like this and remembered something? Don't do this at a time like this——]
[Oh my god, if this is really the case, Xia Zuo will regret it for the rest of his life]
He was finally stunned, he hesitated, and he was about to die.
[Are you the devil in front of me?!]
[If someone really died here, I declare this to be one of the three biggest regrets in this game...]
[This "don't come over"... wuwuwuwu, my heart is breaking, my Xia Bao wuwuwuwu, Caesar, Xia Bao, and Ursula are all so miserable wuwuwuwu.]
Before the shock in the black-haired young man's eyes completely dissipated, the black shadow formed above the bird-raiser's body pounced towards him at a speed that no one could react to, and then completely penetrated his body.
Xia Zuo lowered his head weakly and murmured: "Xize..."
Just when everyone thought it was hopeless, the black-haired young man spoke calmly, as if nothing had happened:
"2511, you cannot address the warden by his name."
…
Barrage: Ah?
Did he succeed in possessing the warden? But why were their tones so similar, and the prison guards around him didn't react at all, as if they were sure that the warden would be fine.
But the next moment, they saw a close-up of the warden in the comic.
At the moment when the black-haired young man was passed through by the black shadow, the comics did not draw his eyes, but chose to hide his expression by covering it with the shadow of the brim of his hat.
——At this moment, the camera zoomed in, and the eyes under the brim of the hat, which should have been a little warm because of Xia Zuo's "Don't come over", became colder inch by inch.
The color scheme that originally tended to be hazy and soft became cold and hard, and the careless half-closed eyes also turned into a straight and unchanging state like a machine.
And his punishment measures are completely different from before.
[…Ursula killed two people before, and she was only imprisoned for a week, right? This is straight up twenty days? ?]
[Only then did I realize that the warden had been unconsciously letting them go...]
[Is the above the key point?! Could it be that the possession of the body was successful?!]
[Not really, not really (calm analysis), it's very likely that he was affected (trying to recover health)...]
I used to think the warden was calm and cold, but now I'm sorry, warden. I was too loud. Please come back.
[A large sum of money is being offered to beg the warden to come back, sob sob sob sob]
[“Cesare will die”… So this is how he “dies”, hahaha, hahaha, hahahahahaha]
【Light a cigarette, and go crazy again】
Comic readers originally thought that the series would end here, at least leaving them some time to recover.
As a result, the comics immediately took over Ursula's side.
Thus, the words that almost touched upon the core of the comic's main plot slowly unfolded before everyone's eyes—
"The completion of the plan requires Freeman's personal participation..."
"From today on, you can no longer stay in the library..."
"Everything is moving forward according to the established trajectory, without any pause..."
Comic Reader: ...
You old thief Zhiyi! Damn! Did you hear that? Damn!
As a result, the forum became popular again.
[Li Tao, my brain is running out. There are too many explosive points in the latest episode. Is Ze Shen good or evil? "hot"]
[Main Thread: By the way, has everyone seen the latest update of "Absolute Talent"? Before the latest episode came out, I was convinced that Ze Shen was a righteous person... Anyway, now I'm shaken. Convince me with your opinions on Ze Shen's righteousness!]
[1l: Here's a key plot point from the latest comic. Ursula enters the library and sees a wordless book containing the secrets of the Crest family. I think this is the most powerful proof of the Ze Shen villain theory...]
[2l: To the original poster, I've always believed that Caesar was the villain. I felt something was amiss from the moment Ze Shen appeared! Think about it, in a shonen manga, a normal black-haired male second who works alongside the protagonist, even if he has a special identity or hidden family background, they usually reveal a little bit in advance, and then everyone overcomes difficulties together... But! Ze Shen really kept it a secret from beginning to end. This kind of treatment is unacceptable unless he is the villain boss.]
[3l: Talking back to the previous thread, I felt the same way. At the beginning, when Ze Shen first appeared, I thought he was just another tsundere second male lead. Then I realized he was the brains behind the main characters, and now he's the boss at the end of the level... I can only say that Ze Shen's disguise is truly a movie star level.]
4l (lz): I want to be persuaded, persuaded! If you do this, I'll think Caesar is a bad guy QAQ.
[5l: I think the manga has hinted at this point. It's been clear from the beginning. In the episode where Caesar and Xia Zuo meet, did anyone notice Caesar's clothing? It's a more modern style, something only the upper echelons of society could wear in the Absolute Talent world. Contrast that with Xia Zuo's simple clothes... That's why everyone feels so elegant at first glance. It's not just his demeanor and posture, but also his whole body is exquisitely crafted.]
[Also, why did Xi Ze appear in a mere third-level prison, and why did he so easily agree to follow Xia Zuo? This in itself is very telling.]
[6l: Yes... Ze Shen might have a little affection for Xia Zuo, but when he's on his own path, he's absolutely not soft-hearted or merciful. That's why he exploited Xia Zuo so thoroughly... I feel so sorry for Xia Zuo. He's a firm believer in the softness of his best friends...]
[7l: Back to the sixth floor. Based on my experience and the comics, Ze Shen is indeed soft-hearted. However, as is common among villains like him, he won't let himself be soft-hearted. For his goal, he can sacrifice everything.]
[8l: Huh? But I still feel something is wrong. If Ze Shen is truly a pure villain, why would they even have to include a plot where he's possessed by another body?]
[9l: Replying to 8l, let me briefly analyze this. From the wordless book, we can see the implication of "a superposition involving a key." So, can we speculate that Ze Shen may have three turning points in total, the transition from César to Christine being the first, and the transition from Christine to the warden being the second? And in the comics, the storylines of Xia Zuo and Ursula unfold in two parallel lines. I think this "possession" plotline coincides with the prophecy of the wordless book, which is—]
The so-called "possession" that Ze Shen is currently experiencing and the changes that have occurred are actually not caused by the conspiracy of the Patrol Tower, but because the third turning point has arrived.
