The Eternal Rock, it's a mysterious place.Merlin first heard the name after he and Blade took out the resurrected legendary vampire Vlad III on Staten Island.He found some books from the relics of the legendary vampire.The legendary vampire also seems to be looking for this place.It wanted to find something called the "Magic Pupil" here.At that time, Merlin was trapped by the rapidly expanding dark magic of the three palaces in his body, and he was desperate to find more useful and advanced magic.And at that time he had two choices.Both are located in legends, and one is the source of orthodox magic, Kama Taj, the inheritance of the Supreme Mage.The other is a more mysterious legend than Kama Taj, the Eternal Rock that carries the world's most powerful divine inheritance.He spoke with Lord Samuel, the Grand Wizard of the Magic Congress, about the Eternal Rock.The archsorcerer told Merlin many legends, and he advised him not to waste too much time in the Eternal Rock.Because to find this place, there are very strict and hard conditions.That's that luck has to be very good...
And Merlin's luck...
Hehe.Anyway, after that, Merlin gave up his job of finding the Eternal Rock.After a series of events, he also came into contact with the Supreme Mage and received the knowledge he needed from the Ancient First Sister.Later, as Merlin's strength grew, the power stored in the Eternal Rock became less attractive to him.But now, after his death, he has come to this place strangely."
Well, I think it's a little more opulent than I thought it would be."
Merlin frowned, looking at the Sanctuary of the Eternal Rock, a mess.There are traces of a fight left here.The power of the magic that still existed made Merlin feel uncomfortable.He lifted his finger.In the midst of the surge of mana, a wide-area repair spell was applied to the temple.It's like a gust of wind blowing in Billy.
Batson watched in surprise and surprise as the remaining fragments of the ruins on the ground were rolled up.Between the reverberations of magic, it was like an infinite number of invisible hands, repairing all those broken things.The torn lampstand was sent back into the air, and the extinguished candle flame was rekindled.The shattered sculpture was re-carved and transformed into seven sculptures of different shapes in an artistic way on the wall beside Merlin and Billy.The broken glass was restored, and even a strange bug that had escaped in the darkness of the rocks was thrown back into a glass like a fish tank by Merlin.Everything is brand new.Brighter lights lit up in the Sanctuary of the Eternal Rock, illuminating everything."
Well, that's pretty much it."
Merlin looked at the hall in front of him, which was not magnificent, but looked very solemn, neat and solemn.This is in line with what he thinks of a magical sanctuary that can be compared to Kama Taj."
Are you a wizard too?"
Billy stood cautiously behind Merlin, and the boy looked at the restored temple and asked, "You look better than him." ”"ShhMerlin held out his fingers and made a silent gesture to Billy.He blinked his eyes and whispered, "Don't be heard by him, I just look amazing, kid, I really want to fight, I'm not his opponent now...
Especially in desperate situations. ”"Listen to me, don't comment on things you don't know, especially in places like this...""
Just stand behind me, don't run around, and when this is over, I'll talk to you.""
Hmm."
Although Billy didn't know Merlin, he just knew from Merlin that the uncle in front of him, who looked very powerful and awesome, was a friend of Father Paul, and Billy saw with his own eyes that Merlin jumped out of the red cross in his hand.He must have had a close relationship with Father Paul.Well, maybe he's Father Paul's son or a relative...
In short, in the current situation, compared to the slightly crazy old wizard.Apparently Merlin is more trustworthy."
You're a broken soul."
The old wizard watched Merlin restore the Temple, his eyes shining with an ash afterglow, and he examined Merlin.He said, "The crippled spirit can still have such magic, and the power you have when you are complete must be amazing, you already have your own power, you have set out on your own path. ”"You don't need Shazam's power anymore...""
You're not the one I'm looking for...", the frail old wizard seemed to be struck by the harsh reality.He staggered back to the stone chair he had been sitting on, and he was leaning on his staff that glowed blue, and he said, "Go, take the child away...
I'm going to keep waiting, waiting...""
You can't wait!"
Merlin was like a hovering ghost, fluttering towards the stone ring in front of him, set off by a shadow as wide as a cloak curtain behind him.Billy followed Merlin without leaving an inch.With a hint of pity, Merlin said to the old wizard in front of him: "You are dying, you are too old, and the magic left in your body can support you for another 3 days at most...""
Listen to you, it seems like you've been looking for a successor, and I've heard some of the rules of the Eternal Rock...
IMHO, I don't think you'll be able to find a suitable heir in 3 days. ”"So what?"
The old wizard still seems to be a very grumpy lord.After hearing Merlin's words, he said in a low tone like a grumpy old lion, "I must wait." ”He looked at the six empty stone chairs around him and said, "The oath left by my brothers and sisters must be guarded by me!"
This is my mission...""
Sounds like an organization."
Merlin stopped in the middle of the stone ring, he looked at the seven chairs, and said, "I don't know much about the Eternal Rock, can you tell me your story?"
We're idle anyway, so maybe I'll be able to give you an idea. ”"You?"
The old wizard stared at Merlin, his eyes full of suspicion.Merlin's face was calm, and he said to the old wizard, "Don't look at me so depressed now, I still have some reliable ...
Friends, they have a lot of energy, and it may not be a problem to find someone. ”"Why are you helping me?"
The old wizard seemed to be suspicious of everyone, and he asked very politely, "What do you want from me?"
”"A little pastime."
Merlin said calmly, "I'm going crazy with boredom right now, you know?
”"It's a disaster to be in hell with those brainless demons, and I desperately need a normal pastime...
Can you understand?
”He fell to the ground and sat down on the stone chair beside the old wizard, his legs crossed and his hands on the armrests."
Maybe a good story can make me forget the harsh reality for a while, and if you satisfy me, I'll help you," he said. ”The old wizard was silent for a moment.He seemed to be pondering the truth of what Merlin said.He had been waiting in the Sanctuary of the Eternal Rock for a long, long time, so long that he himself had gone from a powerful spellcaster to a crazy old man.He's always been here alone, like the busiest interviewer in the world.Constantly select qualified people from all over the world to judge whether they are worthy of inheriting his power.Open all year round, and without pay.Everyone who can be sent here will be shocked by the power he possesses.But there was no one to talk to..."
Okay."
The old wizard bowed his head, and he said, "Well...
If you want to hear a story, then let me tell you a story. ”He raised his hand, and the magic that fluttered turned into orange points of light, rising from his hand, like holographic projections, forming a shining picture."
Wow."
Billy, who was standing beside Merlin, let out a sigh, and the kid was stunned by the brilliant sight.Merlin chuckled softly.When he was first exposed to magic.When he unleashed his first Light Charm, it was no better than Billy was now.Magic, there's always such a shocking power."
My brothers and I, we call ourselves the Eternal Council, and our heritage comes from the gods...
We ourselves are part of those myths. ”The old wizard said in a hoarse tone.As his voice sounded, the magical points of light in front of him were also regrouping, converging into a shining picture.It is an exposition of an ancient past that has long been forgotten."
My name is...

Mamalagon, you can also call me Shazam. ”The old wizard uttered a very awkward name."
Hmm, a living god."
Merlin said, "I'm going to make sure, are you really it?"
”"Hmm."
The old wizard nodded.Billy's eyes widened, he had no idea who the name stood for.Merlin whispered to Billy, "That's the god of lightning that exists in the mythology of the Aboriginal Australians, one of the old gods of antiquity. ”"We're just wizards, not real gods."
The old wizard shook his head, and he said, "My brothers and sisters and I studied the magic of the ancient lineage, and finally got in touch with the true gods located in the mysterious kingdom, and with their consent, the Eternal Council has it...
The power of the gods. ”"Zeus, Ra, your legendary or unrecorded gods, share their power with us and put it under our control to maintain the magical balance of the earth.""
But your duties have been taken away by Kama Taj."
Merlin said, "Now it is the disciples of the Supreme Mage who are responsible for maintaining order in the wizarding world, and the Rock of Eternity has become...
The sad legend is about to be forgotten cleanly. ”Merlin spoke very politely, but the old wizard did not refute."
Yes, we have betrayed the trust of the gods, and we have done something wrong.""
More than 5,000 years ago, the evil and powerful mutant Apocalypse was defeated...""
Wait!"
Merlin interrupted the old wizard again, and he squinted at the old wizard.He said, "Apocalypse and the Hive, in the war between mutants and Inhumans, you also intervened?
”"Of course we intervened."
The old wizard said, "Otherwise, you think that you can defeat the apocalypse just by relying on those controlled mutants?"
”"No kidding...
You've never seen what the existence of the Apocalypse means to mutants, it's the evil god of mutants!
”"Also, don't interrupt me again!"
The grumpy old wizard lit his staff on the ground and said, "Or I'll expel you!"
”"Okay, you go ahead."
Merlin waved his finger, and he closed his mouth and listened to the story quietly.The old wizard sighed, and the hovering magical light in front of his eyes transformed into an ancient Egyptian-style scene."
We found a prince who could carry the power of the gods, bestowed on him the power of the gods, and he led his people to defeat the apocalypse with the mutants," he said. ”"His father unified that chaotic country, and he was supposed to be a big hero.""
We are also proud of it because it was we who led him on the path of heroism.""
But alas, something happened later...
Something very unfortunate caused the hero with divine power to become angry!
He hated magic, he hated all this that wasn't supposed to be in the world. ”The old wizard said, "There was no Kama Taj at that time, and the Supreme Mage had not yet been born, and the Eternal Council was the source of the magic of the world...""
And so, the heroes we have cultivated have ambushed me and my brothers and sisters, and here they are, in this temple."
The old wizard gripped the staff in pain.In the aura of magic that swirled before his eyes, Merlin also saw an angry, superhuman-like man wreaking havoc in the temple."
We gave him so much power that we couldn't control him when he went berserk.""
My brothers and sisters and I prayed to the gods and used the last of our divine power to drive him out of this world and banish him to the depths of the stars.""
But the price of this victory was dearly...
I lost my brothers and sisters. ”"The tragedy cannot be repeated, so I took back the magic that had been given to me until Kama Taj was established and the Supreme Mage took over the power.""
The Eternal Council is forgotten...""
We should also be forgotten, because of credulity, the monster we created with our own hands, almost ruined the world.""
But you're looking for a successor right now?"
Merlin whispered, "The man you banished is coming back?"
”"Yes."
The old wizard nodded, and he said, "The stars are evolving, since 7 months ago, the speed of its evolution has greatly accelerated, the power of the seal we have applied to that monster has decreased, he will soon break through the seal, and he will be back soon." ”"I've been looking for a successor, but I've never been more urgent.""
When we came," Merlin said, "someone just attacked you, I guess you were in such a hurry that you accidentally made a mistake?"
”"Hmm."
The old wizard said, "You are wise, indeed, I am in too much of a hurry. ”"I did not realize that in this world, there is a person of extremely impure mind who I have rejected, relying on his own wisdom, to break the spell of the Eternal Rock.""
He's back here, but instead of inheriting my powers, he's taken the pupil."
The old wizard sighed, and said, "In the world, there will be great chaos. ”"Demon Pupil?"
Merlin's eyes twitched, and he said, "What's that?"

”The old wizard looked away and glanced at Merlin, a strange smile on his face.He said: "Very bad, very bad thing, legend has it that Pandora opened the cartridge and released all the disasters into the world, and that was God's punishment for the world...""
The Demon Pupil comes from that box, and it is the sins of all beings that have been released, the Seven Deadly Sins...""
The Seven Deadly Sins?"
Merlin sneered, he shook his head, and said, "I haven't seen the magic pupils, but they're all?"
”"An evil thing that can be sealed away by an old wizard...
They don't deserve such a domineering name. ”Merlin closed his eyes and said, "I've seen the real seven deadly sins...
Queen of Arrogance, my sister...
She can destroy your place with one finger. ”The old wizard did not refute Merlin's words, he put away the magic shining in front of him, and said, "The story is over, do you want to help?"
”"Of course, my words count."
Merlin raised his hand and lifted Billy, who was still immersed in the story.
Batson took a step forward.He opened his eyes and said to the old wizard, "He is the one you are waiting for." ”"Give him your strength
