In the Temple of the Eternal Rock, Black Adam rejects Shazam's request.He returned to Earth from the stars only to complete his final revenge.He didn't want to.He is not willing to help again, this world that has hurt him so badly.Moreover, as a gladiator of the High Heavenly Venerable, Black Adam had already learned the truth about these stars from the Elders of the Universe.Everything was just a delusion, and the memories, the experiences, including himself, were just the remnants of dreams.He would rather spend his last time taking revenge on the extraterritorial demons who killed his people, wife and children, as for this illusory world, if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed.Black Adam didn't tell Shazam the harsh truth.He is not a villain in the true sense of the word, he has no habit of striking at the hope and courage of others, and he will not tell Shazam that all the current counterattacks and confrontations on Earth are meaningless.Once the High Heavenly Venerable is victorious, the stars will be turned upside down.What they do to protect, what they want to save, what they want to defeat, what they love, what they hate...
All of this, there is no point.Let this brave child usher in the end of ignorance, ignorance is also a blessing.He doesn't have to suffer the pain of the truth.Black Adam looked at Shazam indifferently, looking at his other self thousands of years later, and his chewing made the hope in Shazam's eyes dim.The young man seems to have been hit again.Shazan sighed, he knew that everything was irretrievable, so he closed his eyes and tightened his staff.The golden thunder danced more vividly.Black Adam took a step back, and he looked at Shazam, who was entangled in thunder.This young man's manipulation of divine powers is very rough, but the potential is indeed amazing, and the combination of those divine powers with him is very profound, and he only needs to be given some more time to use his divine powers to a new level.It's a pity that he doesn't have a chance anymore."
Solomon's Wisdom!"
Shazam uttered a mantra to liberate his powers in a low voice, and a golden thunderbolt erupted from him, striking the staff, igniting the jewel at the top of the Blackwood Staff.Stripped of extraordinary wisdom, Shazam snorted in pain.His body trembled, and the lightning outside his body collapsed like quicksand, wrapping around Shazam's body in a veil of light, actively releasing it, causing the divine power in his body to collapse rapidly."
The power of Hercules!""
Boom" Another thunderbolt rolled out, and Shazam felt like he had been whipped hard, and the muscles in his body began to twitch."
Atlas' stamina!""
Achilles' courage!""
Mercury's speed!"
Shazam uttered three incantations at a blistering speed, and dancing lightning struck the staff that had been wrapped in golden flames, and Shazam's own aura quickly weakened.It was difficult for him to even stand, like an old man in his seventies and eighties.I could only hold on to the staff, and I collapsed on the ground.He breathed heavily, like a fish caught out of the water, thrown into the sun, the green tendons on his neck burst out, and the divine power on the surface of his body was weakened to the extreme that he had never seen before.Only a pulsing arc of light was left around his skin, and the red suit on his body had faded.He panted and looked at Black Adam, he gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up, like a stubborn young man holding on to the last stubbornness, he took a step back, touched the staff with his fingertips, and he whispered, "The divine power of Zeus!"
”"Whoosh" The last thunderbolt rushed into the staff like a snake, representing that the six divine powers had been completely stripped away.But there is one last ritual."
Say your name!"
Black Adam held the staff that stored the six divine powers, and he felt the huge power gather in the staff.The light in his eyes became sharp, and he couldn't wait for the revenge of the evil gods in his heart.
“Shazam！！！”
Shazam finally pronounced the release word, and a faint arc of electricity fell from the sky and hit him, causing him to quickly change from a young man's posture to the thin body of a 16-year-old.It was the last time he would utter this mysterious name.It represents the release of his final ownership of divine power."
Pop" The skinny Shazam was knocked upside down by the arc and fell to the smooth ground.He lay there, his face pale.But under the cover of his body, his left hand crept into his pocket and grasped something cold.He looked at Black Adam, who was already basking in the hope of gaining more power, and didn't notice Shazam's small movements."
It's a terrifying power."
Black Adam held the staff wrapped in endless thunder aloft like a sculpture holding up a sacred fire, and the ownerless divine power danced in the staff, waiting for the worthy to be summoned again.In the glow of golden thunder and lightning, Black Adam, who was reflected like a god, spoke: "Unlike you, child, I was originally given the power of the Egyptian god of nine glory, but according to my research, different divine powers can become stronger through fusion. ”"Thank you for your generosity, I have the sword of vengeance!"
Black Adam shouted, "Shu's stamina!
”"Boom" golden thunder burst out of Black Adam's body, merging into the staff, white and golden lightning quickly blending.It was filled with a thicker shade of platinum, wrapped around Black Adam's body like a stream of sparks.This is a fusion of the essence of divine power.Black Adam will first strip his divine power like Shazam, and then integrate the greater divine power into his body by shouting the word transformation.The process is swift.And he wasn't worried about Shazam's petty moves.After stripping him of his powers, he was just a 16-year-old kid with no power to restrain him."
Horus's speed!""
Amun's robustness!""
Thoth's wisdom!""
Aten's divine powers!""
Mehan's courage!"
Black Adam uttered the remaining five incantations at an extremely fast pace, and his divine power was stripped away.He was also getting weak, but because he didn't give up his divine powers, he still maintained a god-like body.And the fusion of divine power proceeded very quickly, and in just a few seconds, the raised black staff became dim.The six completed fusions of platinum divine power were like a star ring, surrounding Black Adam's body.In the light of that platinum halo, Black Adam raised his arms and shouted to the sky, "Shazam!!
”"Boom" platinum-gold magic lightning fell from the sky and slammed into Black Adam's sturdy body, temporarily relieving his divine power.All he needed to do was shout the transformation word again, and after the fusion, the more powerful divine power would refill his body.It is a process of being given again.But at this moment, Billy, who was lying on the floor of the temple weakly, panting.
Batson suddenly raised his hand, and there was already a shiny black wand in his left hand.Green light shot out from the tip of the wand, striking Black Adam's body in less than a hundredth of a second.Black Adam had already opened his mouth, ready to shout the word transformation again, completing the action of embracing a more powerful god.But in the reflection of the platinum divine power, no matter how much he opened and closed his mouth, he could no longer make any sound.Silence Spell...
This is Merlin's second spell for Billy."
Bang" is right in Billy.
As Batson staggered to his feet on the ground, Black Adam, who couldn't shout the word of transformation, fell on his back in the middle of the seven chairs on the stone platform like a decaying tree.His sturdy and powerful body was shrinking rapidly.The appearance that was originally maintained in his 30s is also like being thrown into a time that has been accelerated hundreds of times, and he is rapidly becoming old.In the blink of an eye, Black Adam went from a powerful warrior to a dying old man.What's even more terrifying is that this aging effect has not stopped.Aging continues.Dust escaped from his age-spotted skin.It was a gesture of desperation when the skin and body were dismantled, and Shazam didn't need to throw a fist to attack Black Adam.The moment he was silenced by the Silence Charm and unable to utter the word of transformation, Black Adam was already dead."
How long has it been since you've been mortal again?"
With difficulty, Billy walked over to the staff that had fallen to the ground, and lifted it up behind him and held it in his hand.He looked at Black Adam, who was lying on the ground, too weak to lift a finger.Black Adam lay on the ground, his cloudy eyes staring at Billy, but the young man's eyes were full of pity and unbearability.He said to Black Adam, "I have a good teacher, and from the first day I received this divine power, he has been telling me that the divine power that has been given to me is only a tool. ”"That's just the power I 'borrowed', it never really belonged to me.""
I can use it to fight evil and protect justice, but every time I face my mentor, he reminds me not to immerse myself in the illusion of power and mistakenly think that it is our own power."
Billy watched as the platinum power that was wrapped around the stone platform, encircling him in the form of a star ring.He bowed his head and said to Black Adam, "You made a mistake, and you showed me perfectly the terrible results of immersing yourself in power...""
You may have forgotten yourself, after stripping us of our divine powers, we are just ordinary people, no different from those who need protection...""
As ordinary people, we can't withstand the ravages of time, and Shu's stamina can keep you strong in the 5,000-year seal.""
But that's not really powerful, Adam.""
You lose your reverence for power, you see them as blades that you should wield, you don't respect something, and that thing will punish you in return..."
Billy struggled to straighten up, he looked at Black Adam, who had fallen to the ground, ruthlessly destroyed by the recourse of time.The flesh of the latter was quickly peeled away in the ashes.Just a few seconds later, all that remained was a weathered skeleton.Billy can even hear Black Adam's unwilling roar, but the dark soul immersed in revenge has lost all possibilities, and he has left a rich "legacy" for Billy.The young man looked at the skeleton.He was really taught a good lesson today.He had a deeper understanding of Merlin's past teachings.He leaned on his staff, bowed his head, and said to the skeleton, "You showed me another way, and I already know that it is wrong." ”"I'm going to go my way, I don't know what the end is, but I think even if I do reach the end of despair, even if there is despair at that end...""
I'm going to continue to be a hero too!""
I'm sorry for the tragedy that happened to you, I won't repeat the mistakes of the past, and my mentor has been reminding me that I must protect myself and the people I care about before helping others...""
Wise sayings."
Billy smiled.He looked up at the platinum-gold streamers flying in the air, and then he raised the staff in his hand high.He said, "I don't know what you should be called, so I'll call you by your original names."
I need you to help me, and the world needs it...""

As I said, I want to be the light that dispells the darkness...
Today, I continue to choose to be a hero!
Come on!
”"Today, today!
I'm going to be that light!
”"Help me!""
Wisdom!"
Shazam shouted, and the platinum-gold light turned into dancing thunder and swooped into the young man's weakened body, his eyes shining again."
Strength!
Stamina!
Guts!
Velocity!
Power!
”With the recitation of one incantation after another, six rays of platinum divine power rushed into Shazam's body along the Blackwood Staff, and his entire body was enveloped in a platinum-gold halo, like a beating lightning bolt wrapped around his skin.He took a deep breath and looked back at the skeleton behind him that was only a pile of ashes.As before, he shouted, "Shazam!!
”"Boom" platinum-gold magic lightning fell from the sky, slamming on Shazam's thin body, all the divine power returned, and between the platinum-gold veil of light swaying and thunder, the more powerful Shazam Superman was reborn.His suit was still bright red, and he had a yellow lightning bolt on his chest.But the short white cloak had turned into a long black cloak, like open wings, swaying behind Shazam.His aura rose rapidly, and the Heavenly Father Bottleneck, which was previously indestructible to Shazam, was easily pierced, but his strength continued to increase until Shazam's body could no longer bear it.Bang, bang.Just like the silver superman who turned on the divine will battle posture, in Shazam's chest, the heart entwined with platinum streamers beat more powerfully, pushing the divine power that was enough to open the mountains and seas into his limbs and hundreds of bones."
You won't win," said the remnant of Black Adam in a cursed voice behind Shazam, in the darkness, "you don't know the truth of all this, poor child, that mentor of yours may not have told you that all this, what you care about, everything you guard, is...""
Is it all fake?"
Shazam turned his head, he looked at the wandering remnant, he tilted his head, and in the elongated platinum-gold streamer of his eyes, he said to Black Adam, "No, you are wrong, the mentor told me all this in a letter before leaving...
He also left me with a question. ”"If everything is fake, my life, my love, my family, my friends, the world, if everything is fake.""
If, even we are fake, then is there any point in our fighting, our counterattack, and our protection?""
I couldn't answer that question before.But now, I know your story, and I can answer you too. ”Shazam clenched his fists, and he said, "Meaningful!
”"What if everything is fake?""
Could it be that everything is fake, I can sit back and watch the darkness sweep through the world, I can give up my insistence, and I can be an indifferent bystander with peace of mind?""
It doesn't matter to me whether the outside world is real or not, I don't know what I'm supposed to do, but I at least know...
What can I do!!
”Shazam looked at his thunderous fists, and he said to Black Adam, "This is the meaning of my existence, and this is the meaning of the old wizard giving me strength. ”"When everyone is desperate, when everyone tells you to give up, the real hero still has to keep fighting and keep going.""
Finally burn yourself and become a light that tears through the darkness...""
What's more, the Guru and the others are fighting to turn the false into the true, how can I give up here?"
He turned around and walked towards the exit of the Eternal Rock, and in the midst of the thunder flashes, he raised his golden armor and waved it at Black Adam behind him, and he said, "After everything is over, if I am still alive, I will help you avenge you, those evil gods who have destroyed you, I will go to them and give them one judgment after another!"
”"No one can do bad things with impunity!
I swear!
”"Really?"
Black Adam's remnant grinned.At the moment when the spirit was about to dissipate, he said to Shazam, who disappeared into the thunder, "Then thank you...""
