I become light in Marvel

Chapter 11 Chef Shazam

The demon spirits were all wiped out, and the huge temple suddenly became quiet again.

The old wizard sat back on his throne, lightly closed his eyes and pondered for a while, his old complexion soon turned rosy, and he regained some vitality.

At this time, Shen You also recovered his human form and came to the side of the old wizard.

"Thank you for your help, foreigner." Wizard Shazam opened his eyes, and solemnly said to Shen You, "Although it's a bit hard to say, but this time I have to admit that without your help, the consequences might be unimaginable."

"You don't seem to be surprised by me." Shen You said.

The wizard smiled.

"I have lived for 9000 years. During the 9000 years, I have seen the fall of the old gods, the rise of the new gods, the end of a world, and the vengeful spirit of God wielding the blade of punishment in anger

Believe me, after living for a long time, no matter how strange things are, they will not be rare.Ni is indeed an existence that I have never seen before, but it will not surprise a wise wizard too much. "

Shen You thought about it, yes.The wizard Shazan not only lived a long time, but he must have dealt with bosses of multiple levels at his level.Although he is no longer at his peak now, he won't be surprised every time he sees a new alien race.

The wizard sighed softly: "But I am still getting old, and I am getting more and more powerless. Sure enough, I have to choose a new successor as soon as possible, otherwise the temple will soon be unguarded."

After a pause, he glanced at Shen You and sighed.

"Actually, I think you are a good choice. Your willpower needs to be tempered, but you have a kind heart and a pure heart. It's a pity."

He shook his head and didn't continue talking.But Shen You somewhat understood the meaning of the wizard's words.

After all, the wizard himself is still a human being, and the category of choosing a successor is naturally within the human race.Strictly speaking, Shen You has been reborn as an Ott tribe since his first rebirth, he is no longer a human being, and he is not in the category of candidates for wizards.

In fact, to say so, this also pays attention to a fate.The standard Justice League with a pure heart and a strong willpower may not have anyone else who can meet this condition, but wizards in thousands of parallel worlds will always choose Billy Batson in the end.

Somehow, there is still the guidance of fate.

"I can't give you the power of the six gods, but the wizard must not make people's work in vain. Hmm." The old wizard pondered for a while, and asked, "Although I have never seen an existence like you, from my point of view, Are you supposed to be a life of some kind of light and magic power?"

Shen You was a little surprised.The so-called "bright magic power" should be a way of expressing the old wizard from the perspective of magic.Although the old wizard no longer has supernatural power, his vision is still sharp, and he can see the essence of his Ultra Clan light with just one glance.

"Then this must be helpful to you."

The wizard Shazam stretched out his hand, and squeezed the two fingers out of thin air.Suddenly, a burst of sunlight emerged from his fingertips, and the energy transformed into a ruby.

Shen You originally wanted to say that he didn't know anything about magic, but he took the gemstone and glanced at it, and was immediately surprised to perceive some kind of scorching and powerful energy churning in it.With just a thought in his mind, the energy poured into his body bit by bit, making him feel full of energy and refreshed for a moment.

It felt to him similar to the feeling of receiving the energy of a star through the light.

The essence of Ultraman is light, not only ideal light, but also light in the physical sense.In the long series of works, Riotman flies to the position near the stars to quickly recharge through the light, and there are many bridges, which are the most effective means of charging.

And this little ruby ​​gave him a feeling similar to the sun's rays.

"This is a gift from the sun god Apollo after a great war in ancient times." The wizard Shazam stroked his beard and said with a smile, "It has been nothing but a collection for me for so many years, but it may be of benefit to you. "

Shen You immediately understood.Apollo is the sun god in the DC setting, and his supernatural power is the out-and-out solar radiation——Dachao personally certified.

In the comics, Wonder Woman brought Superman to the place of the Greek gods. Apollo saw that Da Chao was upset and gave him a shot. Da Chao's body energy reached 400% in an instant, and he said to Apollo in surprise, "You actually used Solar radiation hit me?", and then punched the sun god for hundreds of miles.

This little ruby ​​seems to be a similar magic item.It can absorb and store a considerable amount of solar radiation, although Shen You doesn't know what its original purpose is, but in his hands it is a plug-and-play power bank.

Ultraman is similar to Superman, and can be strengthened by solar radiation.Like in Max's ending, after being fed with solar energy, he directly pierced through the atmosphere with a glowing sword, so handsome that he has no friends.Shen You reckoned that this power bank might not have the same effect as the old Mai Kai, but it should be able to play a similar role.It is usually fully charged, and can be used as a hole card for auxiliary explosive seeds if necessary.

This also reminded Shen You again that a wizard at Shazam's level is like the Supreme Mage of Marvel next door.There is a room full of artifacts in the sanctuary of the supreme mage, and mage Shazam must have a lot of good things like this in his hands.

Shen You accepted the ruby, thanked the wizard, thought about it, and asked.

"So, you want to stay here to guard this hall, and then continue to look for a successor?"

The old wizard shook his head.

"Successors are to be found," he said, "but maybe not here. I've been out of touch for so long that I don't understand the world today. If you can't go deep into it and understand the people of today, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find that one." A one-in-a-million heir."

When he said this, he smiled lightly.

"It's been 9000 years, such a long time, and I've been protecting the present world time and time again in the hands of the Demon God, and it's time for me to retire.

I am running out of time, and I just want to choose a person worthy of entrusting to take over this responsibility in the few days left, so that I can rest in peace.

The era of chaos will come again, but the world will have its new guardians.Who knows?Maybe they will do better than we did back then, maybe they can not only protect, but also guide the light of the human race. "

As the old man said, he patted Shen You's shoulder meaningfully.

Following him, he stood up, left the stone throne, and walked calmly towards the gate of the main hall.

Shen You silently watched the old man's vicissitudes of the back, feeling a moment of emotion in his heart.

The wizard Shazam may not have been the protagonist of the story, and in the story it is just a grandfather-style background board that exists in the origin of the hero.But it is indisputable that he was also a great guardian. He has guarded the lights of thousands of families in the darkness for thousands of years, and even his achievements and names have never been known.

Until now, in his dying years, when he was about to die, he still wanted to pass on the torch and continue to protect the safety of the human race

Well, wait a minute.

Shen You suddenly thought of a point.

"Wizard, senior?" He followed the wizard and walked towards the exit of the hall, and asked at the same time, "You said that I am afraid that time is running out?"

"That's right." The old wizard accepted it calmly, as if he was a master of Taoism.

"Then may I ask how long it will take?"

"Who knows? No one can say about the lifespan. The shortest is 30 to 50 years, and the longest is [-] to [-] years." The old wizard said.

Shen You: "."

Sure enough, he knew.

When a nine-thousand-year-old guy says he is dying, his standards must be different from normal humans.

"Well, if you still have decades to go, what are your plans?"

"So I've said it all. To understand the world today and choose my successor from it."

"No, I mean to be more specific." Shen You interrupted, "Because the screening process might take ten years? Twenty years? Then where do you plan to live during this time? What do you eat?"

Judging from the actual combat situation just now, the wizard's old arms and legs are still healthy, but the magic seems to be a bit difficult to use.Before choosing a successor, one of the most important problems faced in returning to reality is food, clothing, housing and transportation.

At this time, they had just passed through the magic door and returned to the alley before entering.The old wizard was taken aback when he heard the words, apparently he hadn't seriously considered this issue.

So Shen You took advantage of the situation and said: "To be honest, I have opened a coffee shop not far away now, and the business is pretty good. Recently, I am thinking of providing some baking or light meals for customers in addition to coffee. It just so happens that Still need a cook”

The old wizard's eyes were wide open, and he blew his beard in anger.

"You asked me, the guardian of the Rock of Eternity, the founder of the Eternal Council, the greatest 'that wizard'... to be your cook!?"

Shen You didn't say anything, just winked, which meant something close to "you think about it".

"No, no, no, no, no way!"

The old wizard folded his arms and raised his head proudly, resolutely.

However, the aging body that gradually lost its divine power did not give face, and there was a series of "gurgling" tumbling sounds in its stomach.

The old wizard: "."

So a day later.

In the HISHE cafe on the corner of the street, there is an old chef who wears an apron and a chef's hat, blows his beard all day long and looks displeased to everyone.

"Let me tell you, Gotham is a place full of outstanding people. What you see and experience in our store in one day is guaranteed to be more than what you can experience in other places in a month. It is right to blend in with the times here." .”

Shen You said with a smile to the new employees he hired with zero salary, including food and lodging.

"By the way, you may not have seen the kitchen equipment, but they are all very useful. Let me teach you."

"No need."

The old man looked up proudly.

"Mortal creations, easy for a wise wizard to grasp. I can make them all obey me before dark!"

"Uh well, then you go on."

However, only 2 minutes after Shen You exited the kitchen, he heard a "bang" from behind him.

And a smell of gunpowder smoke accompanied by burnt gunpowder.

Shen You: "."
