Volume 6: Secret Invasion Chapter 52 Hey, Black Adam! This thing is much more useful than spells!
The private plane was targeted by Black Adam as soon as it entered Kandak. This was no longer an experience that could be described by the word "bad luck". Coupled with Poison Ivy's reaction before the attack, Mason confirmed that there were unknown secrets hidden in this ancient country.
It seems that the disappearance of Superman and Joe Joe will indeed trigger a chain reaction.
After giving the team members the order to move freely, Mason picked up Harley in his arms, closed the penguin umbrella and let himself fall to the ground at the speed of free fall, just like bungee jumping without a rope.
It’s all about the heartbeat.
After completing the water body reorganization and landing safely at an altitude of hundreds of meters amid the little cutie's screams, Mason's hat immediately reminded him:
"There are other people following Black Adam. If you don't plan to fight them here, move away quickly."
"Now is not the time to fight."
Mason raised his watch to check the position of his teammates, shook his head and said:
"The king of a country came out to stop us personally. This must be a trick to cover up the quick evacuation of those shady bastards. I guess they didn't expect us to move so quickly.
Very good, now it’s time to compete in execution.
Go meet up with Jason Blood first..."
As he spoke, Mason's body shook and dispersed into several lifelike water clones, instructing them to disperse and attract the pursuers. Then he activated the speed tail ring and rushed towards the capital of Kandak according to the assembly direction given by Xiao Zha.
Team K was slower to react, and Ironheart sent these non-flying team members into the desert below, where they were discovered by Black Adam's minions.
In the dead of night, the loyal servants who were endowed with certain launched a decisive attack, but the young people who were well prepared also dispersed.
This is the task they undertook.
Attract the enemy's attention and buy time and create opportunities for others who are carrying out covert operations.
This sounds like a difficult and dangerous mission, but it is in line with the current strength of the super-powered teenagers to just engage in guerrilla warfare on the periphery and not to engage in head-on confrontation with powerful enemies.
Especially when the most troublesome Black Adam has been entangled by Shazam, the difficulty of this mission is rapidly decreasing.
Damian rode Mason's modified bat motorcycle across the desert, dodging the lightning thrown by the "servants of God" behind him while looking up at the sky.
In the darkness of the night, there were two bright flashes flying back and forth in the sky. It was a fight between two possessors of divine power with the same inheritance.
There is no doubt that the younger Shazam has fallen behind.
"I've already warned you, you bastard! Don't enter my country again!"
Black Adam, dressed in a black battle suit wrapped in thunder, punched the red Superman in front of him. The dazzling blue lightning wrapped around his body made the monarch look majestic.
He roared at Shazam, as if he was annoyed by this brainless guy who kept causing trouble.
There is also a sense of "contempt" in this.
In the eyes of Black Adam, who has experienced many ups and downs in his life, Billy Batson is undoubtedly not worthy of his power... To put it simply, what level are you?
Using the same divine power as me?
Although the fifteen-year-old Billy did have little experience in dealing with people, his Solomon wisdom allowed him to easily capture the contempt in Black Adam's actions and words.
But the kid didn't care. Instead, after being knocked away by Black Adam, he steadied himself with a deft roll in the air. He also made faces at the majestic and cold Black Adam and sneered:
"I don't know who was the last person in Gotham who was beaten like a dead dog and thrown into a stinking ditch and almost drowned! Hey, I saw your embarrassment with my own eyes, Adam.
Don't pretend to be strong in front of me. You are just a loser.
Although I still don't know what you did secretly, I believe that when it comes to determination, you, an old dog who has surrendered to outsiders, are not qualified to speak in front of me. "
He patted his knees, grinned and whistled at Black Adam tauntingly:
"I'm not kneeling yet, but you have a collar around your neck. I'm curious, if your barking is pleasant enough, will they give you a few more bones?"
"boom"
Faced with Shazam's sarcastic taunt, Black Adam's response was an outburst of divine power!
The power of the six Egyptian gods has been strengthened in the Middle East. Shazam couldn't beat them in other places. Now that they have come to his base, naturally the only thing he can get is a beating.
At this moment, half of the sky was covered by the divine lightning burst out by Black Adam, turning it into a Jedi with rolling thunder. Shazam let out a strange cry and turned around and flew away.
He is just like a coward who talks big but dares not face the cruel enemy.
But as a predecessor, Black Adam is far superior to him in the level of divine power manipulation. The great monarch does not even need to move. He can control the flying lightning from all directions to surround Shazam with his will alone, and soon traps him in a small area.
Thunder is seen everywhere, and strong winds are blowing amid the rolling dark clouds. It looks like extreme weather caused by a small climate change. The person who can easily create such changes is called a "god" and perhaps it is not right to be worshipped.
Shazam could do this, too, if he took the time to hone his control over the powers of the six Greek gods to a finer level.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Shazam simply gritted his teeth and held up his lightning as protection and pounced on Black Adam.
This reckless response made the monarch of Kandak sneer.
He folded his arms and didn't even bother to throw a punch. This little idiot would quickly lose strength in the collision of divine powers, and eventually he wouldn't even be able to maintain his transformed state.
"You know nothing about the power of your enemies, and you know nothing about your own power. How desperate must that pitiful old man be to give you the last inheritance?
How sad! "
He sneered.
As Black Adam expected, Shazam's speed as he quickly traveled through the cage set up by Thunder became slower and slower. The entangled lightning trapped his limbs like chains, making him look like a small fly crashing into a spider web.
The distance between the two is shortening, but Shazam is no longer able to break out of Black Adam's confinement. It seems that being captured alive is the only ending for this red Superman tonight.
"Hello!"
Shazam, who was surrounded by layers of enemies, looked up and saw the dark god who was less than 50 meters away from him. The young man, who was under great pressure, gritted his teeth and shouted:
"The old wizard told me that giving you power was the biggest mistake he made in his life. Before he died, he told me to defeat you!"
"so what?"
Black Adam said expressionlessly:
"It's good to have a goal, but you don't have the means to carry out your will. Should he send a boy to carry out a mission that only a real man can accomplish..."
"Take my hammer!"
Before the monarch of Kandak could finish his words, he saw Shazam in front of him making a charging throwing motion in the air.
The next moment, the power of the six Greek gods gathered and exploded. At the moment when the dazzling lightning broke free from its restraints , a silver hammer wrapped in energy smashed down at the speed of light.
At this distance, facing the whistling and energy-filled finely crafted Thor's hammer, even Black Adam was unable to dodge it, so he burst out with his divine power and crossed his fists in front of him to block it.
With a loud bang, he who had the advantage was pressed down by the sneak attack hammer. In an instant, he flew across the dark sky and fell towards the ancient pyramid in the distant desert. Then, the replica of Thor's hammer that had absorbed enough divine power pressed him into the pyramid, causing dust to fly everywhere.
This kind of attack will make him feel pain but cannot actually hurt him.
However, the moment Black Adam flew out of the collapsed pyramid covered in dust, he felt as if he was locked by some kind of "hunting eye" and felt a chill in his heart.
He looked up and saw Shazam in the air roaring the names of the six Greek gods to push the power of the six gods to the limit, while the red-clothed Superman was holding a majestic golden spear in his hand.
A large amount of divine power was poured into it, lighting up the runes carved by Mason himself. More than seven circular magic arrays were activated on the Spear of Judgment from beginning to end, causing it to almost disappear and transform into a fast-jumping golden lightning held by Shazam.
"The old wizard didn't just choose me because I have a warm heart!"
He shouted from the sky:
"I still have a pair of eyes that can distinguish right from wrong, but you don't. You are blind, 5,000-year-old man!"
"Shua"
He threw out the Spear of Judgment that was almost out of control in his hand. This attack drained all of Shazam's divine power, causing him to release his divine power transformation the moment he threw the spear. He staggered and fell from a high altitude, and was hugged by the flying Iron Heart. Then the thrusters accelerated and took him away into the clouds.
As for Black Adam...
Although the Spear of Judgment thrown by Shazam is not an authentic one, its destructive power as a carrier of power after being subjected to the gathering of divine power should not be underestimated.
Shazam's desperate fight forced Black Adam into a desperate situation to survive. The power of the six Egyptian gods exploded in the night to meet the golden arc of light that was falling on his head.
A horrific explosion rang out around the ruined pyramid, sweeping across the desert like a shock wave, and rolling up a sandstorm that connected the sky and the earth.
The replica versions of Thor's Hammer and the Spear of Judgment used to attack him both had recovery and positioning runes. After completing the attack, they whooshed into the sky and followed Billy away.
Although the sandstorm caused by the collision of forces was very unexpected, it effectively concealed the whereabouts of Team K. Under Damian's command, the team members advanced and gathered inside Kandak in the sandstorm, which allowed them to successfully advance to the next stage of their secret infiltration, which was full of problems at the beginning.
…
"Well, the replica of the artifact I made is actually quite powerful, right? I think those guys who mocked me as a fake dealer can shut up now."
On the top floor of a hotel in the capital of Kandak, Mason stood in front of the French window and looked at the sudden light in the distance and the huge dust that followed. He turned his head and said to the Demon Knight Jason Blood, who was standing behind him with his hands in his pockets and no expression:
"Especially when they fall into the hands of the right users, they can exude destructive power that is no less than the genuine ones."
"That attack can't kill Black Adam."
The old knight said calmly:
"It has to be at least three times stronger. Shazam is obviously still in the early stages of exploring and controlling his strength. Black Adam wasn't kidding when he mocked him.
He didn't realize the power he held, and like a child, he just thought it was enough."
“That’s a good attitude.”
Mason waved his hands and said:
"Power can lead to human depravity, making you better at fighting but also more stupid. Look at me, I never think power is such a good thing. I always feel that it is enough.
Maybe it’s because my fighting style is different from most people?
Okay, let’s not talk about these sentimental topics.”
He took a glass of wine from Harley, turned around and looked at the Demon Knight who had been lurking here for several days, and asked:
“Where should we go next?”
"The temple of Khandak."
Old Jason pointed in a certain direction outside the window and squinted his eyes and said:
“I have confirmed that the escaped wizards of the Star Society are hiding in it. It is a demiplane connected to the material world. It is said to be the last shrine of the six Egyptian gods and the source of Black Adam’s power.
I had no idea what was in it.
But if they really kidnapped Superman and his child, then the temple is their best hiding place. In addition, a large swamp has strangely appeared around the temple recently...
So if you're thinking of tracking down the Swamp Thing, that guy never hides his movements.
It and its followers are always in the swamp, which makes it very dangerous for us to break into the temple. If it's just the two of us, I would advise us not to take the risk. "
"I feel more and more that this is a trap set up specially."
Mason rubbed his brow and said:
"Perhaps they kidnapped Superman in order to lure the entire Justice League here. They are planning something dangerous but are confident of their success.
If my guess is correct, something like a 'ransom note' may soon be delivered to the Justice League headquarters..."
"Shua"
As the broken light flickered, the figure of Little Flash suddenly appeared, along with the old man and Little Zack who were brought with him. As soon as Batman appeared, he said in a serious tone:
“Three minutes ago, Cyborg, who was guarding the Watchtower, received an email threatening us that we must hand over several powerful items stored by the Justice League, otherwise they will kill Superman and Joe.
Cyborg analyzed that the email was sent from Kandak, and now the news has spread.
Wonder Woman and Aquaman came over here before I even contacted them, but it was clear that they wanted to see the Justice League get together.”
"Look, a vicious trap."
Mason curled his lips and said:
"These 'Awake Ones' really don't even bother to hide. They want to eliminate you to pave the way for the next large-scale invasion."
"Then I'll go stop them?"
Xiao Shan made a running preparation and asked:
"Without my help, can you guys do it? That's a trap for the entire Justice League."
"Don't be afraid, I have a secret weapon."
Mason grinned and handed the silver-gray activation key to the old man, who was stunned for a moment before taking it. He then said to Xiao Shan:
"The Martian Manhunter is waiting for you outside the borders of Kandak. He will help you stop the rest of the Justice League. Don't let them enter Kandak before we send back the message."
"good!"
Xiao Shan disappeared on the spot with a whoosh. The others did not waste time either. Led by Old Jason, they quickly crossed the city that was shrouded in a sandstorm and approached the royal temple.
In front of the mysterious swamp, Zha Kang and Poison Ivy were already waiting there.
Xiao Zu snorted and didn't look at Zha Kang, who also pouted and held a cigarette butt in his mouth as if he was in a bad mood.
They are just like two funny guys.
"The consciousness of the swamp monster is in this swamp. I'm going to talk to it."
Poison Ivy rubbed her forehead and said to the others:
"Groot and Rocket come with me, we will buy you enough time."
"Um."
Mason had no objection to this. After Poison Ivy summoned the power of nature, the rest of the people safely crossed the swamp and entered the front of the temple.
Old Jason said that this was a demiplane independent of the material world, and its entrance was blocked by a rock. It obviously required the power of six gods to open it, but these divine things were never a big problem in Mason's eyes.
He put his hand on the rock.
The fragments of the Black Death Sword moved and covered the fingers. It only took a dozen seconds to absorb all the divine power in the rock, making the restriction invalid. A door flashing with lightning appeared in front of everyone.
The old man who was worried about his good friend was the first to step in, followed by the others.
As a result, as soon as they entered the door, there was a flashing green light sweeping towards them like suppressing fire, and the dangerous Avada Kedavra curse flew everywhere. Fortunately, the master activated the key in time to activate the enhanced Fenrir armor to block everyone.
The interior of the temple was not large, and as they expected, it was filled with enemies.
In addition to the fugitive wizards who have been hiding in this world for nearly two months, there are three Supermen, two Wonder Women, two Aquamans, a double version of the Justice League, and several Black Adams floating in the sky waiting here.
The Skrulls...
"Look! Dachao!"
Harley, who was hiding beside Mason and holding the X-metal hammer, screamed. The others looked forward under the suppression of the magic frenzy and saw Superman hanging in the air by kryptonite chains.
He looked extremely miserable, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
"Bang"
Mason released something and smashed it to the ground. He opened the black mechanical cabinet and said:
"Begin to arm and prepare for the assault."
"What is this?"
Zha Kang looked at what Mason threw out in surprise. The captain curled his lips and said expressionlessly:
"Mason's Funhouse... Don't mind the name, just go in. It 's full of good stuff and fun stuff, I promise."
