Chapter 175, Archmage?

How could the subway train be empty at such a time of time?

The little boy, Billy Batson, felt a bit nonsense, but the thought that he would have to go to the welfare center and receive his monthly welfare allowance made him bite the bullet and get on the train.

"It's a metropolis, so there shouldn't be any problems...... Hey, even if something goes wrong, Superman, Avengers, Wonder Woman, Cyborg...... They'll come to my rescue! ”

Billy looked around and sat down in the seat closest to the door, the train door closed, and slowly accelerated.

"If something really goes wrong and Superman comes to save me, can I ask him for an autograph, I'm a huge fan of Justice League, they will definitely give me an autograph!"

Thinking of this, Billy played the heartless characteristics of the bear child, and leisurely leaned on the window and looked out.

As the train starts, the advertising screens on the walls of the subway tracks recede rapidly.

One second Billy was watching with relish, but the next second, the picture suddenly changed, and the train seemed to have come to a cave, full of upside-down stalactites.

"God, the train passes through the cave?"

Even if Billy is a heartless bear child, that's when he notices that something is wrong.

The metropolitan subway will only open in the city, how can it suddenly be opened into a cave.

While the train was still whizzing forward, Billy jumped out of his seat and slammed his fist against the door in an attempt to open it.

But, all in vain.

After about half an hour, the train slowed down, stopped, and then with a 'ding' sound, the doors opened.

"It's ...... Arrived at the station? ”

The little boy, Billy, poked his head out and looked out of the car.

There is still a cave around, but near the train, there is an earthen staircase, like a platform here.

Billy jumped off the train and walked boldly along the platform.

After a while, he saw seven abominable stone statues on the wall on his right, and the name of each statue was written underneath.

"Arrogance...... Eat one's heart out...... Greedy...... Hate...... What is this?? ”

Billy continued to walk inside, amazed at the seven stone statues in the inexplicable cave.

At the end of the cave, there is a huge stone pedestal, on which sits an old man with a Mediterranean hairstyle and a white beard.

The moment the old man approached Billy, he opened his eyes and said, "Billy Batson, you are younger than I expected. ”

"Wow...... There is a living man...... Oh my God, you ...... Are you Gandalf, the archmage in Lord of the Rings? ”

When Billy saw the old man on the stone seat, his first reaction was that the other party was a Gandalf-level mage.

The old man let out a laugh from his mouth: "Hahaha, I'm not a Gandalf, I'm ...... Shazam! ”

Shazam said the word, and a thunderbolt suddenly erupted in mid-air, causing Billy to fall to the ground.

"Omaiga, do you also know how to use thunder spells? Are you really an archmage? Billy looked at it with a sigh of relief.

The old man's face froze, and he suddenly didn't know how to answer Billy's words.

He coughed lightly, "That...... Here's the thing, for thousands of years, I have used the power of magic to defeat the evils of the world, and it's an endless struggle......"

"Oh my God, old man, you've lived for a thousand years?" Billy interrupted, staring at the old man with a gleaming eye.

"Uh-uh...... Yes, I have lived for a thousand years, son, and you listen to me......"

"I wonder what was a thousand years ago, and could I learn magic from you? I've wanted to see similar comics before, a doctor had a car accident, he broke the nerve in the palm of his hand, and then he went to a Supreme Mage, and then he was accepted as a disciple by the Supreme Mage, and became the next generation of Supreme Mage......"

Billy kept talking excitedly, and the old man on the stone seat was getting darker and darker.

He snapped his fingers suddenly, and Billy, who was chattering non-stop one second, couldn't make any sound the next.

"Well, that's right, children have to learn to listen."

The old man moved his body for a moment and continued: "As you can see, I am very old, and it may not be long before I leave this world, and you ...... Little Billy, your parents disappeared when you were a child, the orphanage closed, your adoptive parents disappeared, your life was miserable, but you were never cynical because of the unsatisfactory life, on the contrary, you loved life more than anyone else......"

"So, I want you to inherit Shazam's power, the world has changed recently, and I can feel a new wave of darkness coming in...... I hope you can use my power to do something, and now, you can say magic words, say my name! ”

The old man explained in one breath, and he stared at Billy expectantly, expecting him to say the word 'Shazam'.

However, Billy's eyes were very aggrieved, and he whined and pointed to his mouth, as if complaining, you used your silence skill to make me speak.

"Oh, sorry, I almost forgot." The old man snapped his fingers again.

"It's amazing, I was just silenced by you, so are you really an archmage? Oh my God, archmage who has lived for a thousand years, can you take me as a disciple......"

"Billy, say my name."

"You're Gandalf! Or the Supreme Mage Ancient One?? ”

The old man slapped his head on the door, and he wanted to die.

Little Billy ran up to him and asked expectantly, "Archmage, what did you just say about the Dark Wave?" Isn't there a Justice League, can't even deal with them, so if you take me as an apprentice, can I become a superhero? So what code name should I get? Superheroes have generations ......"

The old man rubbed his temples hard, this bear child is too noisy!

He stretched out his hand and waved it violently, and Billy 'Wow', and the whole person flew out of the cave, and the sky swirled as if falling into a bottomless abyss.

"Ah......hh Am I going to die? Won't the Archmage take me as a disciple? ”

Billy screamed loudly, waving his arms to keep his balance, but suddenly he found himself standing in the door of the subway station.

Crowds of pedestrians!

Because he had just shouted loudly, the pedestrians around him looked at him with a strange look.

It's embarrassing!

…………

At the same time, another ancient cave.

A decayed, withered, mummy-like body suddenly opened its eyes, and he rolled his dry eyeballs to look in one direction.

He opened his mouth and said a word with difficulty.

"Shazam!"

Whoa!

Thunder suddenly exploded in the sky, falling on the withered body.

In the next second, the withered body suddenly turned into a middle-aged man in a black battle suit, and there was a lightning pattern on his strong chest.

"Another magic mark, has he finally woken up?!"

Before the words fell, the man suddenly disappeared in place.
