"No time for you to play games!"
"No, this won't work. Absolutely no chance."
Billy felt like he was back in that night again.
The hazy fog, the squeaking tram making an unpleasant sound, and the roar of monsters coming from the window were like the deepest dream of every boy huddled in the quilt on a midsummer night.
Then……
The confused boy opened the door of the carriage and saw the old wizard sitting high at the top of the hall.
His hair was like flowing seaweed, and he wore a linen robe. His staff rested on the crook of his right arm. He supported his head with one hand and looked at the boy in front of him carefully.
"People like you cannot shoulder heavy responsibilities."
He concluded this.
"My magic must have become weaker after recruiting a child."
"I'm not a kid anymore, and who the hell are you and what the hell is this place?"
Billy heard himself yell.
"This is my home, and you are only qualified to answer when asked. I am the last member of the Magic Council and the manager of the Eternal Stone Castle! This is the greatest magic castle in history!"
"Hey, listen, perverted old man, it's okay for you to deceive a 6-year-old child, but if you dare to take one step closer, I will beat you to the ground."
"Hmph! The search spell not only gave me a child, but also an uneducated one. I'd better get over with the scene."
Billy's pupils reflected the wizard's raised staff, with thunder and lightning entwining on it and penetrating his body: "Will this boy be the magic warrior I am looking for? Is this boy the most benevolent existence?"
Boom!
Billy saw himself lying on the ground. He heard the old wizard say: "Why does magic want me to waste my time on these imperfections? The evil has been released. God, forgive me, Black Adam is about to be free."
"What did you just do to me?" Billy raised his head and saw that the old wizard was bleeding from all his orifices while he was talking. On his already skinny head, a greenish-black color that only the dead could show gradually began to appear. .
Maggots appeared in his eye sockets and gnawed half of his face into bones in just a few seconds, but he still said as if he didn't notice anything:
"As I have done with so many others, I read your life in search of a perfect being. But you are as imperfect as the souls I have brought with me... No! More than imperfect, you It’s full of all five poisons!”
The haggard wizard grabbed Billy's collar: "You liar! Liar! You use the power I gave you to steal the banknotes from the bank cash dispenser? If a coward like you really sees Black Adam, , will only flee!"
"You don't have any good qualities in you. You stole my power with your sweet words!"
"Give me back my strength! Come back! You can't bear the burden at all! You are a waste, a villain who tells lies! I made the wrong choice!"
"ah!!!"
Billy yelled and stood up. He held his head and fell to the ground with a clang. His hard head hit the table and slid out on the smooth floor.
He climbed up in embarrassment and saw his classmates and teachers looking at him.
"Ah, classmate Billy, are you feeling well?" He heard his teacher, Mr. Wilson, whispering to him on the podium.
If it had been a few weeks ago, this middle-aged man with a big belly would have been yelling loudly, or ridiculing him in a weird way for doing such "not a normal child" behavior in class.
But at this moment, his face, which was as wrinkled as poop, was filled with disgusting flattery and ingratiation. Instead of calling him "Billy", he might as well have called him "Daddy".
Mr. Wayne's funding of this school made all the teachers and students recognize Billy's status. In just a few weeks, Billy became the person who should not be messed with in the school, even if it was no longer the case. Acerbic teachers will become kind and lovable under the threat of money and power.
Even kind to the point of being disgusting.
Billy was not at all happy that he was receiving such preferential treatment.
If Mr. Wilson had cursed him with vicious words and made him angry, he might have insulted the other person directly without fear, but the way the other person wanted to lick the soles of his shoes now only made Billy feel scared.
This is not the treatment he deserves.
You see, he didn't think it was real at the time, he thought he just fell asleep on the train and had a weird dream.
He told the old wizard a lot of stories about how no one is perfect, and then the old wizard seemed to have lost his mind and said some strange words like "You have the fire of hope, you are the one I am waiting for." Then the gift of power was given to him in a daze, and he didn't even know what happened.
Then, the famous Mr. Bruce Wayne came to their school and directly used green money to eliminate more than 90% of the troubles in his life. All those people who troubled him, the rich man Mr. Blair and his three scoundrel sons whose leisure hobby was bullying others, and the acrimonious Principal Peach, all fell to pieces under the power of Mr. Bruce Wayne.
Billy knew something was wrong with his situation. Normal people should be happy when they find out that they have super powers and make super friends. Super friends can help you improve your life with just a few clicks of a finger, right?
But...Belgium often thinks about those who have pinned their hopes on him. They called him God and thought he could solve anything, but Billy knew that was not true. He was just a little boy, and a little boy with low moral standards. His first reaction after gaining superpowers was to steal. Bank's automated cash dispenser.
"I'm fine, Mr. Wilson."
Billy shook his head. He refused special care. He did not skip school or do anything unique and naughty. Instead, he just went to class quietly and waited until school was over in the afternoon. Most of his classmates went to join clubs or went back directly. After returning home, Billy, who put away his textbooks, slowly picked up his schoolbag and came to the medical office.
The medical office is very large, and Billy arrived at the psychological clinic with some difficulty. There are many students inside who are reading quietly.
Billy knew that this clinic was also a venue for the psychology club.
He passed over the classmates and knocked on the door of a small consulting room at the end: "Dr. Fell, here I go again, uh..."
When Billy called Dr. Phil by his name, he didn't realize that "fell" actually sounded similar to the word "fear."
Just a little bit similar, neither more nor less, not enough to make people think of it.
"Diagnosis," then Billy heard Dr. Phil's voice coming from the small consulting room.
Warm, kind, and powerful.
"A little free diagnosis, Billy. There is no need to be ashamed of this. Modern people have always been under great mental stress."
The voice dispelled Billy's shyness in just a few words, and the boy breathed a sigh of relief. He opened the door and saw Dr. Phil, who was tall and thin, sitting in the main seat.
His limbs were skinny, like the arms of a scarecrow.
"Ah, you're here, Billy." Dr. Phil politely asked Billy to sit down, but there was no flattery at all. This made Billy very comfortable.
The other party is worthy of being a psychiatrist, and every move he makes makes people feel at ease, without any displeasure.
"So...where were we?"
"...Dr. Phil, won't you sit down?" Billy asked.
He saw Dr. Phil walking to the window excitedly, straightening his long and thin body, like a scarecrow watching crows in a wheat field.
"I'm fine, I can just stand. Let's discuss where we left off last time: about fear."
"You're afraid you're not good enough, aren't you, Billy?"
He said: "...Responsibility and ability must be relative. The most important reason why humans are social animals is because they can divide labor and cooperate..."
"...Find the things you're good at, Billy, and the ones you're not good at..."
The scarecrow disguised as Dr. Phil's mouth quietly curved: "You can completely entrust this position to someone who is good at doing these things."
…
…
…
"Kara Zor-El has arrived on Earth for more than 37 hours," Chen Tao said.
"Um."
"This means she has absorbed enough of the sun's yellow rays to transform her into a powerful girl."
"Um."
"Okay, Diana, I admit, the reason I'm at a loss for words is entirely because I hope you can change my position and carry me."
Chen Tao finally spoke helplessly.
When Diana carried him to find the invisible plane, they found that the plane's fuel tank was accidentally and inexplicably broken, and there was not a drop of oil in it.
Alfred expressed great surprise and regret in the communication channel. Chen Tao completely believed that this was definitely not his handiwork, haha.
At first, Chen Tao tried to transform into a Broken Bat and fly by himself. Yes, it was a good idea, and he happened to be side by side with the heroine. But the fact is that he can't keep up with the speed of Wonder Woman running on the ground.
Diana's demigod body gives her speed beyond human imagination, second only to Superman, Cheetah and several speedsters who have mastered the speed force.
After Chen Tao synchronized the Broken Bat, his flying speed was indeed fast enough, but it was still not enough for the heroine. At first, he could barely keep up in the city center with complicated roads, but he was soon overwhelmed by the heroine. Left behind.
All in all, now that there are no supersonic flights, the situation has become Wonder Woman carrying Chen Tao and running on the ground...
"I tell you, I am Batman." Chen Tao said: "You can't carry me around like a cat. Even if I have a nano body that can turn my body into a lump without a human form, this is not for It’s convenient for you to use my skills.”
"Okay." Then he heard the female hero say. He originally thought that he could finally get rid of that shameful position, but in an instant he found that he had been adjusted into a princess hug.
"..."
Chen Tao was originally talking about something, but he quickly changed his mind...
This is fine, just like that, haha.
So he didn't say anything, and covered his face with nanobots, making Wonder Woman hug her more like a giant black cat than a human being.
Without the threat of being seen, Wonder Woman hugged Batman and soon arrived at the location where Supergirl was.
This is the outskirts of Kansas. Across the bank from the large farmland is a dense forest. When the breeze blows, all you can hear is the rustling of the trees.
Chen Tao got off Diana's body and quickly got into working mode.
"This place was located by Superman in the Fortress of Solitude by using Kryptonian technology and the super dog Krypton's sense of smell." Chen Tao said:
"The accuracy rate is probably over 90%. To be honest, this place is not particularly far from where the spacecraft crashed. It is much closer than I thought.
She had been falling for more than a day and she only walked a little bit. Either she was lost or she was too scared to go out. No matter what the situation is, he will be wary. Once we find the Kryptonians, we'll do it together. "
Chen Tao said. He looked at Diana, who was already squatting on the tree.
"Natural scenery, right." Chen Tao said, "So we can't let this natural scenery be destroyed. We have to cure her in an instant and try not to cause more damage."
Diana knew what Chen Tao didn't say. The greater the damage caused by their fighting, the easier it is to attract manpower sent by an organization called the "government".
"So, we must search carefully." Chen Tao threw a communicator to Diana and said: "Superman and his dog will provide us with technical guidance. When the person is found-"
boom!
But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a loud bang erupting from the jungle not far away, followed by an overwhelming series of explosions.
Chen Tao and Wonder Woman looked at each other.
…
…
…
Have you ever felt this way.
It seemed like I fell asleep for a long time all at once, like a lifetime.
There are also strange dreams, things you never imagined, but when you wake up...the dream continues? !
Kara looked at her hands.
Barely able to stand, but who feels tired in a dream?
The Kryptonian girl looked down at the S uniform and cape she was wearing. That's the crest of the El family. She stared at the sign in a daze for a while, then tilted her head and laughed three times stupidly.
However, I knew it was a dream.
Because only in my dreams can I wear this formal uniform, otherwise my mother will kill me. I will wear this to receive my degree at my graduation ceremony in a year - if I ever graduate.
I know this is a dream because Krypton has not been home to any other species besides Kryptonians since I was a toddler.
And if this is not a dream...
I would have died long ago from systemic organ failure due to being outdoors without a ventilator.
But at this moment... I can only feel a cool feeling——
breeze?
Kara saw the stones on the ground shaking, and then a large number of armored robots broke through the obstacles of the jungle and aimed at her with various long guns and cannons: "Don't move!!! Aliens, this is the Earth!!" !”
