Chapter 221 Black Adam: Who Can Electrocute Me?
"Run...Run..."
I'm Billy Batson.
I've got it all wrong.
I don't understand who I am or what I can be.
Look at what's happening around me these days...I thought it was a dream come true, a fantasy story.
After all, there are monsters in this world, right? There's even a knight, the Dark Knight.
I thought it was a journey of bravery or a hero's journey. But maybe it's all an illusion, just like the power of thunder can be obtained by shouting.
I began to suspect that I was not dreaming, but a nightmare.
Dr. Phil might be right, being a superhero means seeing real darkness...not some child's play.
For the first time in my life, I saw a dead person.
Black Adam lifted him up and threw him to the ground.
Hardly.
The ground was covered with bone fragments and blood, just like the scarecrow toy that Dr. Phil showed me before.
As long as you bend it hard, it will gradually twist, and then finally...
Fall apart.
This is not cool at all.
You see, in the short time since I became the superhero Shazam, I have met a lot of people.
Killer Croc once told me that being Robin was the happiest thing in his life.
Ivy said that she had saved tens of thousands of plants and lived a fulfilling life every day.
I also met Clayface, who pretended to be my homeroom teacher and gave us four days of nonsense classes. If the real homeroom teacher had not been stuffed into the closet and almost starved to death, he might have been able to pretend for longer.
He said that being Robin was really "fucking awesome".
Don't get me wrong, these are his original words.
But I don't think I'm ready to accept this.
At least not now.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh help me!"
Billy, who was desperately running away in Shazam mode across the road and the forest, finally found the approximate location of Batman with the locator in his hand.
Although I don't know why Batman made this thing so heavy and heavy, like a small brick, and it is also a full metal shell that is convenient for conducting electricity, but fortunately, he did not slack off because of this, but always carried this thing with him, which saved his life.
"Ahhh!!!!" A lightning bolt hit Shazam, and he fell directly to the ground while flying in the air, and then flew up again in a hurry.
"That spell, that spell... How do you recite that spell?!"
"Ah, I remember it!"
Shazam opened his hands and aimed at Black Adam who was holding the lightning and continued to strike down, and loudly recited the spell with a heavy mix: "Thunderbolt stop the ban, lightning retreat!"
With a boom, I saw——
There was no effect at all.
"You actually tried to use magic against me?" Lightning flashed in Black Adam's eyes, and a larger and thicker electric current instantly created a deep pit where Billy had just been lying: "You actually dared to try to use magic in front of me?"
"You are just a coward, worthless!"
Billy ran away with his head in his hands.
"I master magic! I master lightning!"
The furious Black Adam stood in the air, wantonly showing the power that a magic user should have:
"In this world, the person who can strike me with lightning has not yet been born!"
He raised his hands high, and the plasma that was almost condensed into substance slammed into the ground fiercely, and the surrounding trees exploded into charcoal in an instant. A fierce mountain fire burned, and Black Adam, who stepped out of the fire, had a hideous face like a demon.
"The new magic guard... He made a big mistake in choosing you. I said you are not worthy of using this power, and you don't understand what this power means at all."
He walked in front of Shazam, who had begun to roll his eyes and collapsed on the ground.
"You don't understand at all, to save the world from the hands of those who enslaved it, I can do what I can do, I even killed my nephew, I used his sacrifice to exchange for the freedom of Kandak."
Shazam retreated in despair on the surface, but in fact he was secretly calculating the distance in his heart.
"Now your blood will help me liberate the whole world."
Black Adam walked in front of Billy.
"I must get the power of the Eternal Stone Castle, I must become the only guard of the wizard again."
"Fall to the ground!"
Shazam raised his fist that was ready to go, and hit Black Adam on the forehead with a bang. This unexpected punch immediately knocked Black Adam back.
"Despicable!" He cursed: "Shameless sneak attack!"
"This is what Batman taught me!" Billy turned around and ran in Shazam's state, "This thing is much more useful than magic!"
But the next moment, he saw Black Adam reappearing in front of him with his hair standing on end.
"Your tricks have no effect."
Shazam wanted to resist, but was punched in the face the next second. The fist with a sonic boom hit his head and made him buzz. He was picked up by the neck by Black Adam: "Recite that spell and hand over the power of living lightning to me!"
"You...you want him so much?"
Shazam gritted his teeth: "Shazam!"
With a bang, a lightning bolt struck both of them, knocking Black Adam back.
Billy, who had turned back into a child, used his hands and feet, running and shouting: "Help, Batman!"
"Shazam!" Another lightning bolt struck him, and Billy turned into an adult again. He felt sore and painful all over his body, and fell to the ground suddenly.
He had just put all his strength into trying to summon a transformed lightning bolt to knock Black Adam away to help him escape, so this transformed lightning bolt was more aggressive than usual. Although it attacked Black Adam, it also hurt himself who was standing next to him at the time - being hurt by his own spell sounds funny, but this is a process that almost every magic beginner will experience.
Not far away, the knocked-away Black Adam also got up from the ground: "Not that spell, idiot! I want you to give me the power of living lightning, not just transformation!"
Billy struggled to get up from the ground.
But at this moment, he heard a familiar voice.
"Who is calling Batman?"
"I don't know, you are hallucinating, Killer Croc... Well, I mean Robin... Marko, you have expanded the smoke area too much, it's enough, no need to make it bigger."
"Add more lead powder, kid, we are working, not playing! Stop using your air walking shoes. I will make some more buckets with ice..."
"Hey - help!!! Killer Croc, Robin!!! Come and save me, I am Shazam!"
Killer Croc and Weather Wizard looked at each other, and Weather Wizard took the lead, rolled up a whirlwind under his feet, and flew over with Killer Croc.
He asked the green crocodile concisely: "Which one do you want to hit?"
"The black one."
The weather wizard raised his stick, which looked like a magic wand but was actually an ordinary wooden stick:
"Thunderbolt explosion!"
Boom!
A bolt of lightning immediately struck Black Adam's feet. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been electrocuted on the spot.
"Is it your helper again? Stupid guys..." Black Adam's eyes lit up with lightning, and he opened his hands to the weather wizard who continued to wave the "magic wand": "You dare to use lightning to deal with me? Look, idiot, this is how to use real spells!"
Black Adam bravely faced the weather wizard who was waving the magic wand, and loudly recited the heavily mixed spell that Billy had just used: "Thunderbolt stop the ban, lightning retreat!"
He was very confident in his magic, and he never meant to underestimate anyone. However, although the weather wizard was also dressed like a wizard, he was very sure that in the category of lightning magic, the other party's attainments would never be higher than his own.
Therefore, he just stood there and chanted the counter-spell, without even dodging.
Boom!
Accompanied by the deafening thunder, the lightning column as thick as a bowl instantly submerged Black Adam, electrocuting him to a crisp on the inside and tender on the outside, and his whole body was twitching constantly.
"What..." His eyes were a little out of focus, but compared with the physical pain, there was more psychological disbelief.
"What?" The weather wizard was also surprised. In the many years of fighting with the speedster, his lightning had never hit the opponent once. There were a few times when he hit the opponent head-on, and he actually charged the opponent. So now he is basically used to using lightning as a blocking skill, and then using the blizzard range to suppress negative pressure, and then summoning hail and meteor showers.
But in so many years, it was the first time that someone was so brave to take his lightning directly on the face.
So subconsciously, he swung another lightning.
Black Adam still didn't believe it. He raised his hand that had been blackened by the electric shock again, and chanted a heavily mixed spell in a super loud voice with all his strength: "Thunderbolt stops the ban, lightning retreats!"
Boom!
Looking at Black Adam who was twitching from the electric shock not far away, the weather wizard looked innocent: "What a mess, what happened?"
"Impossible! What kind of spell is [Thunderbolt Explosion]? He can't be unaffected by the counter-spell!"
Black Adam was going crazy, which completely violated the common sense of magic he knew.
"Actually, I just chanted it casually..." The weather wizard felt a little guilty.
"Hey, Marco, don't be distracted, the fog is starting to dissipate, you have to keep them!"
The voice of Heat Wave came from behind: "The hot air can't blow up anymore, you have to come and push them up quickly. Cold, make some more ice, and we will make some more water vapor-why am I the only one working now?"
Captain Cold, who was obsessed with watching the show next to him, ran over to help Heat Wave.
Weather that violates seasonal and scientific common sense will inevitably have to pay a price. Once it is not controlled in real time, it will immediately collapse.
"Forget about it, Killer Croc, where is Batman, hurry up, we need him!"
Billy was not fooled by the appearance that the weather wizard struck Black Adam stupidly.
With Black Adam's speed, it was not difficult to dodge the lightning. He just had a brain disorder and wanted to try whether his magic counter-spell could counter the superpower of the weather wizard, so he was struck to pieces.
Billy grabbed Killer Croc's collar: "Where is Batman? We need him!"
"Ah, Batman is in the fog, but actually..."
Before Killer Croc could finish, Billy flew into the fog with his locator.
"Fuck, but... listen to me first!"
Killer Croc shouted from behind, but Billy turned a deaf ear. Black Adam saw that the other party just ran away, and finally had to give up the fight with lightning.
He gave a fierce look to the innocent Weather Wizard standing next to him, and then he flew and chased Billy: "You can't escape, Magic Guardian!"
"Bah! Bah! Don't think you can be so rampant for long!"
Billy shouted loudly: "Batman, help me!"
After passing through the heavy fog, Billy soon saw the figure of Batman in it.
Hey, strange, why is there a big monster with horns on his head standing next to him?
It doesn't matter, it's probably Batman's new subordinate.
Billy rushed directly to the other party: "Batman, save me!"
And Black Adam, who followed closely behind, also stared at the other party. Along the way, he heard Billy repeating Batman Batman, and his ears were almost calloused. The other party's appearance is also easy to recognize, with a pair of pointed ears, like a bat, isn't it?
Is this what the other party has always relied on and confident in?
Got it. He would not make the same mistake as the weather wizard and let the other party take the initiative. After all, there was an enemy in front of him. No matter what, he would electrocute him first.
So, he struck the forehead of the mechanical superman who had not yet reacted with a lightning bolt, and also scared the steppe wolf who was thinking about swinging the axe behind him.
Steppe wolf:! ...?
The four people present looked at each other, but in fact, no one understood the current situation.
