Chapter 92
The smile on Xia Zuo's face disappeared.
SSS-level wanted criminal.
Crest.
He stared at the last name "Kleist", pursed his lips, and read the description line over and over again.
...Could it be Caesar?
Moore and Ursula noticed that he looked uneasy and became suspicious instantly.
The blond messenger asked for the file, and Ursula, who could read minds, heard the contents of the file directly from Xia Zuo's thoughts.
"Crest? Is this person the head of the Craster family?"
Ursula's expression grew colder and colder: "So he let Caesar stay outside..."
The blond divine envoy tilted his head, searching his memory for relevant information. He said, "The head of the Eastwood Insane Prison has always been the head of the Crest family. But who are the members of their family, and what are the criteria for becoming a head? The outside world knows nothing about this."
In a prison like this that is almost closed off from the world, it is already a rare opportunity for the outside world to know the owner's surname.
Xia Zuo pursed his lips: "Before the truth of the matter comes out... I don't want to jump to conclusions."
He took a deep breath and said, "Besides, we will have to face him sooner or later."
But deep down he had no hope for this man's position.
After all, judging from the attitude Caesar usually displayed, his relationship with his family was not close, and could even be said to be bad - this was also the reason why he suspected Christine in the first place.
And although the Federation is not a good thing, the information it provides is at least of some reference value.
Xia Zuo thought for a moment, then suddenly asked Mol, "Were the leaders of the criminal groups cooperating with the Federation taken to Eastwater?"
Moore immediately understood what he meant: "Of course. Maybe they will know something."
"I will now order an intensified search for them."
"Add me."
Ursula said gloomily.
As soon as she finished speaking, countless tentacles extended from behind her, quickly disappearing underground and rapidly spreading in all directions. Only the two top-tier Light Talent holders present could vaguely sense the unrest beneath the ground.
It was obvious that Ursula was always extremely positive when it came to matters concerning Césaire Crest.
Xia Zuo actually wasn't quite sure how far her abilities went, but after Ursula put all her efforts into finding those criminals, even the experienced ones couldn't hide for long—with the ability to read minds and the blanket search, almost no one could escape Ursula's search without any special talents or top-level bright talents to cover them up.
Soon, several tentacles wrapped up the escaped high-ranking members of the criminal organization and threw them in front of Xia Zuo and Moer.
When Ursula rolled them, she wasn't as gentle as when she rolled Xia Zuo. She had absolutely no regard for human feelings, and didn't even restrain her strength. Not to mention her inherent abilities that could confuse cognition and affect emotions, causing those thrown into her to suffer unbearably.
But Ursula didn't let them go.
She tightened her tentacles and asked without emotion, "How much do you know about the Eastwood Prison for the Insane? Tell me."
Mol: "Don't tell me about brotherhood. You don't have that."
Xia Zuo, who couldn't get a word in: "..."
His face was expressionless, let alone any sympathy. Although he was just standing by, watching the two women conduct the interrogation, his presence was very strong.
Soon, Moore and Ursula integrated and sorted out the information about Eastwood that these people knew.
"They had previously attempted to rescue the leader, Vila Junca, and wanted to get her out of the Eastwood Prison for the Insane, but they failed."
"The Eastwood Prison for the Insane was extremely heavily guarded, leaving virtually no loopholes to exploit. They spent a considerable amount of time searching for a suitable gifted individual, and finally found one. However, just before they could succeed, they were stopped by the warden who had been waiting for them."
Mol narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing something in the mixed expressions of fear and unwillingness on the faces of several people. He concluded, "This warden is definitely not a simple person. If you really want to go in, you may not have an easy time."
"It doesn't matter," Xia Zuo shook his head. "Didn't he just say that prisoners who have signed the contract cannot use their innate powers in the Eastwood Prison unless their inspiration is high enough? And my physical skills are not bad, and my inspiration is not low either."
"What about her?" Moore turned his gaze to Ursula: "Her power and talent come from the same source."
Ursula didn't want to talk much: "Tentacle, main body, be careful."
Xia Zuo: "...She means that she has her true form to use, and she just needs to be careful not to leak out the dark aura. And even if she doesn't take action, probably... there are not many people who can break her defense."
After all, human skin is just human skin. Under the skin is a real deep-sea monster, and the thickness of its blood is no joke.
If Ursula wasn't a combination of human and deep-sea monster, I'm afraid we really couldn't bring her in.
And she is very successful. Although this ability is not a natural power, it is enough to ensure her safety.
Xia Zuo was about to move on to the next topic when he felt he had overlooked something. He paused and asked, "We haven't asked when the warden of Eastwood Lunatic Prison took office."
When he first saw "Kleist", the first thing that came to his mind was his best friend, but before he could think about it further, his thoughts were diverted.
——It’s not his fault that he is obsessed with this issue. He didn’t completely connect Christine and César at the beginning because he didn’t notice that Christine appeared in the wasteland just after César died in front of him.
Ursula's ability to read minds allowed her to quickly give the answer:
"The warden of Eastwood Lunatic Prison has just taken office."
The words fell.
The brown-haired boy's bright golden eyes suddenly brightened.
The expectation in his heart was infinitely magnified, but he didn't dare to let his expectations be too high. So he barely suppressed his excitement and said calmly, "Xize is the agent. He will definitely be the one with the greatest hope of succeeding the Crest family as the head of the family."
"But all this can only be known after meeting him."
The brown-haired boy exhaled.
"Let's make the final preparations. We're leaving."
…
North of the wasteland.
A brown-haired boy was rapidly running across the land, carrying a petite black-haired girl on his back. They were almost a shadow and could not be seen with the naked eye.
But if someone could look at them carefully, they would find that it was not the brown-haired boy carrying the black-haired girl on his back, but the black-haired girl stretched out her hands to hold his shoulders, and her whole body was actually floating, not touching him at all, as if she was a ghost behind the brown-haired boy.
"waste."
Ursula was callous: "I've already given you the coordinates, and you still haven't found where Eastwood is."
Xia Zuo: "..."
The brown-haired boy showed a hint of helplessness on his face as he explained, "Those prisoners said there's an energy shield outside of Eastwood. They were able to locate Vilajunka because of a breach in that shield. Perhaps the reason we can't find Eastwood is because of this shield."
Xia Zuo wasn't too worried. "My blood has been recovering faster these past two days, and I can already vaguely sense Xi Ze's location. It's a little intermittent, but if I give myself some time, I'll definitely be able to locate the prison."
Ever since the incident of "my best friend was right next to me but I didn't recognize him and even hit him hard", Xia Zuo has been trying his best to stimulate the awakening of his bloodline, and now the results are remarkable.
He firmly believed that Caesar was not dead, but returned to his home, so where Caesar was, Eastwood must be where he was.
But the truth is, they didn't have to wait that long.
Soon, three people dressed as prison guards suddenly appeared on their path.
Xia Zuo stopped his movements in an instant and steadied his body. Ursula behind him also opened her eyes, looking at them calmly and without emotion, and prepared to attack immediately.
The prison guard at the front said, "Xazao Freeman, a federal—no, a former federal SS-level wanted criminal. Come with us."
"Wait," Xia Zuo couldn't help but probe, "Since you know this information, you should also know that I have never done anything that harms the world."
—So, why are you taking us to Eastwood?
You must know that except for the members of the Iswit family, their vassals and prisoners, no one is allowed to enter Iswit.
This is also why Xia Zuo plans to do something harmless after locating Eastwood.
The prison guard glanced at him and said, "If we don't take you, won't you go on your own? Less trouble is worse than more. Let's go."
“…”
Xia Zuo suddenly asked, "Did he ask you to pick me up? He's the only agent who can sense my location."
He stared at the prison guard intently, only to see a genuine look of surprise on his face. "Him? Who is that? And what is an agent?"
The prison guard frowned and said, "And don't underestimate Eastwood. How do you think we identify those prisoners who claim they will never be caught?"
Obviously, in the eyes of the prison guards, Xia Zuo's question just now became a symbol of arrogance.
The brown-haired boy was obviously aware of this, but he didn't explain.
The matter has not been clarified yet, and Xia Zuo does not want to reveal his friend's name. He does not want to hurt Xizel in the slightest because of his recklessness.
The black-haired girl also fell back onto his back silently, no longer hanging in the air.
"Close your eyes."
The guard explained, "This is the only way for outsiders entering Eastwood for the first time to pass through the 'barrier.'"
If Xia Zuo and the others had no intention of taking action, the prison guards would not be so kind. Instead, they would use the conceptual talent products they brought with them to force them to close their eyes.
Xia Zuo did so without hesitation.
——If they don’t do this, who knows what else is waiting for them, so it’s better to take the initiative.
He didn't completely believe that these people were Eastwood's prison guards. After all, he had never seen them before.
But soon, this suspicion was dispelled.
