I'm going to have a fight with Superman
Chapter 1068 The Young Watcher
Chapter 1068 The Young Watcher
Fawcett City, 10:30 p.m., dark and heavy sky, gray fog drifting down.
"Extra, extra! The exclusive interview of Louise Lane, the famous reporter of the universe, with General Sardas of Lann Star, the exclusive news of Planet Daily!" A thin teenager holding a stack of newspapers stood under the neon lights and shouted loudly, "This morning's New news, Lois Lane interviewed General Sadasi to ask General Lane his opinion on Zero Hour and the Galactic Admiral."
Everyone was in a hurry, and no one stopped to buy newspapers or go to see the boy.
On the contrary, the homeless man who was huddled in the street corner and played with his mobile phone raised his head and said sarcastically, "Silly pen, is the news this morning considered 'new news'?
Did you time travel from 40 years ago?
It is said that the zero hour crisis broke out, and many people from the future and the ancients smuggled into our 21st century. "
Many people are struggling to live.
Billy Bassant pushes harder than the others.
Can't survive without effort.
He is an orphan, an orphan who escaped from an orphanage, a "fugitive" who will be caught by the police and sent back.
Because of this status, he couldn't even find a more formal job.
No shopkeeper wants to employ child labor.
There is no threshold to be a newspaper boy, but in 2017 when homeless people all have a smartphone, it is really difficult to make a living selling newspapers.
From the afternoon to now, in four or five hours, only ten copies were sold.
But Billy was not discouraged, nor was he shocked by the tramp's words.
This is not his first day as a newsboy. He knows that some old-fashioned gentlemen are not used to modern electronic products and prefer to hold newspapers with the scent of ink in their hands.
"Hey boy, come here."
An Audi waiting for the green light to turn on slowly pulled down the rear window, and a bald old white man waved to Billy, "Give me a copy of the Daily Planet."
Like a sharp arrow shot, Billy came to the car in a few steps, and quickly handed over the newspaper.
He knew the red light wouldn't last forever, and if he was too slow, the car would pull away and his business would go down the drain.
In the Fort of Eternity, the half-person-high Book of Reflection floated in the air, projecting a vivid picture in front of the two of them.
"How?" Old Shazam asked.
"Just look at the present, it's okay."
Old Shazan stared at her side face, his eyes were meaningful, and his tone was full of pride: "His experience is very similar to yours, he lost his parents, had no money to eat, and could only sleep on the road.
But what he does is completely different from yours.
Every penny in his hand is exchanged through hard work.
The environment in Fawcett City is not much better than Gotham. Many children of his age have taken the illegal path of stealing, robbing, and joining gangs.
Not one day, two days, three days. He lived like this for three full years!
He not only relies on his hands to make money to support himself, but also has a strong sense of justice, and will do his best to help the weak and resist violence. "
Harley sneered: "Such a good child, but you ended up in trouble."
"Yes, he is a good boy, but I have made him bear too many responsibilities and burdens. But without me, he at this time is the epitome of his future life.
It was I who helped him out of mediocrity and hardship, and it was I who gave him infinite possibilities, infinite opportunities, and endless honors. "
Harry sneered, "With his one-of-a-kind 'magic superconductivity' talent, if I just throw a magic book at him right now, he will at least be another Nick ten years later."
"Which Nick?" Old Shazam wondered.
"Contemporary young mage No.1."
Old Shazan shook his head and said, "Magic superconductivity does not mean strong magical talent. In fact, I chose him not to inherit my wisdom. He is a magic warrior!"
"Don't talk about it, you let him be a magic warrior, not because he is only suitable for being a magic warrior, but because warriors can be stupid and have no access to advanced magic knowledge.
As soon as a person learns, he will become smart, and as soon as he is smart, he will become 'bad'.
It could be said that his original magic talent was superb, but when you poured Shazam's divine power into it, his talent was abolished, leaving only his physique.
Alas, back then I scolded old Neb for being cruel and cruel, treating Kent as a tool man and controlling his body and will at will.
Looking at it now, although I did not scold Neb wrongly, he is not the best person. At least he gave his wisdom to Kent. "
Now even if Kent throws away the helmet of destiny, he is still a knowledgeable archmage, and it is inevitable to become a master in the future.
"Aren't you talking about Billy, why are you starting to mock me again?" Old Shazam said angrily.
Harry glanced at him lightly, and said, "The discussion on Billy's matter is over, do you want to hand over the power to him now, or wait until he goes to Philadelphia?"
"What are you going to do?" Old Shazam asked.
"Tonight, Fawcett's police will catch him because he repeatedly escaped from the 'Greenwillow Orphanage', and the Youth Management Committee of City Hall decided to change his environment, and then he went to Philadelphia. The plot, you decide, Go to an orphanage, or get adopted, or keep running."
With a thought in his heart, Old Shazan brought the "Book of Reflecting the World" in front of him, chanted a mantra, his eyes gleamed with silver lights, and lightning jumped between him and the book.
"Crash!" The pages of the book flipped quickly, and Harley saw countless shadows. Billy went to the orphanage, but ran away again, and Billy went to the church boarding school, stayed there honestly, and fell in love with a female classmate , Billy became a street bum.
"That's it!" The lightning suddenly disappeared, and countless phantoms collapsed into a page of pictures. Old Shazam pointed to it and shouted excitedly: "Let this family adopt Billy, this is his final and perfect destination. His way."
Harry looked intently and saw a family photo, a couple and their five adopted children.
"Well, the couple is a combination of American whites and South American names, five children, a white elder sister with outstanding personality, ability, and appearance, a disabled white second brother with inconvenient legs, an obese elder brother, an Asian younger brother, and a black man. Little sister, do you want to be so politically correct?"
"The five children all have more than [-]% of the 'conductivity' - able to bear more than [-]% of the magic debt, second only to the 'superconductor' Billy.
On weekdays, I couldn't find even one of them, but now five of them are gathered together.
I buy Karma, praise God, thank God, God bless, this is the destined 'Shazam family' ah! "
Old Shazam put down his thunder staff, looked up at the sky devoutly, and crossed himself with his right hand.
Harley glanced at him, and continued to complain: "This white couple is barely middle-class, and their family is even a little poor. In another situation, I would have thought that these two people cheated the government of living subsidies by adopting children."
In the United States, the government will provide subsidies for the adoption of orphans.The situation is different in each state, and the minimum is 500 US dollars.For example, when Harley was the mayor, she increased Gotham's subsidy to $1000 because of the improvement in economic benefits.
"They have something bigger than money—there's a lot of love in this family!" Old Shazam laughed.
There were nine members of the Young Watchers when they debuted, and five of them died in battle on the day of their debut. Only the captain Moon Girl remained. Kid", the pious nun "Magic Nun" who seals the devil in her body. In terms of political correctness, she can compete with the Shazam family.
Afterwards, their manager, Jessica, selected a total of [-] "New Boy Watchers" from the second and third generations through TV programs.
The next afternoon, the Big Four came to Quinn Manor together with their agent Jessica.
"Where was the original headquarters of Young Watch?" Harry asked.
The four young watchmen looked puzzled, "Jersey City, what's wrong?"
"Why move to Philadelphia?" Harry asked again.
Captain Moon Maiden said: "Your suggestion is that Jersey City is too close to you, which is not conducive to our independent development.
In addition, superheroes have entered a period of vigorous development, and we have to seize a bustling metropolis in advance. "
Speaking of this, the purple-haired captain showed an admiring expression, "You guessed it really accurately, now it is more than ten times more difficult to find a city without a guardian than it was back then."
"I came to you this time to suggest that you change cities and move to Cleveland." Harley said.
"Cleveland?" The five were shocked and exclaimed in unison.
Harley looked at them and said calmly: "Cleveland is just the beginning. In the future, we will continue to change cities, maybe more prosperous, maybe worse, wherever superheroes are needed but there are no superheroes, you go there.
You will no longer be permanent representatives of a city, you will only represent the Watchers.
I've had this idea since the beach town incident.
Yesterday I saw a spiritual wizard. One of his gods is about to debut and needs a city to earn faith power, so I found you today to turn my previous ideas into reality.
You can refuse, because I will only give orders to the 'Watchmen', as long as you quit. Well, you have 'graduated' from the Young Watchmen, and you are also sending talents to the society.
It has nothing to do with me where I go or what I do. "
"I'm going to Cleveland." Moon Maiden said immediately with a nervous expression.
After finishing speaking, she glanced at her teammates who were stunned, and added: "I only represent myself."
Jessica had a complicated expression, but she pursed her lips tightly and said nothing.
"I—" the other three were about to speak, but they were interrupted by Harry raising his hand, "Don't worry, you have three days to think about it slowly, and give me an answer in three days."
"Let me talk about the situation in Cleveland, where alien weapons are rampant, and children with superpowers often disappear there.
Zhenglian made several attacks, and the results were fruitful, but the effect was not good.
They have gained a lot every time, but they have never cut the roots. I suspect that someone is playing tricks—gods, demons, alien overlords, it's all possible.
In the case of Cleveland, I have a question: Why did the mastermind put the lair in Cleveland?Why not a metropolis, not Gotham, not the most prosperous and most concerned city in the United States?
Moon Maiden, what do you think? "
"Because there are no powerful superheroes in remote small cities, it is easier for the black hand to develop and grow secretly." The purple-haired girl thoughtfully.
Harley took out the "Thunder Necklace" given by the old wizard, threw it to the girl opposite, and said, "This is the reward from the spirit wizard for letting the watcher move. Take it and leave, and give me an answer in three days."
"I can make a decision now." The moon girl said firmly.
"Text me in three days."
When the Big Four of Young Watchmen left, manager Jessica sat there without moving.
"You've been ignoring the 'Youth Watchers' before, why did you suddenly plan a new career for them?" she asked puzzled.
"I didn't care about them before, because I thought it was troublesome, and I didn't want to be troubled by you, now." Harry sighed, "You haven't seen Laurie in recent years, have you? The last time I went to the Metropolis, she took my hand Said, Watchmen shouldn't be like this, shouldn't be a 'boy and girl group'."
Jessica said embarrassingly: "I don't want Overwatch to be overly commercialized, but the superhero industry has been booming in recent years. If Watchmen don't seize the hill, the hill will be occupied by others.
If you lose traffic, you lose endorsements.
Without a relaxed economic environment, there will be no funds to develop itself.
For example, recently they are considering building an energy volume holographic simulation room like the Justice League, and they can't afford $50 billion.
That is a good thing to improve strength. Only by improving strength can one survive the crisis.
But Young Watch does not have government funding, so what else can they do if they don't desperately accept endorsements to make money? "
