Chapter 54 Shazam Time
In the bar of Happy Harbor, the death knell that turned his back to Savage drinking still turned a deaf ear, and continued to pour himself alcohol, and Savage did not care about the rudeness of the death knell, and went straight to the death knell and sat down, and the waiter at the bar also Very discerning handed Savage a beer. He drank the wine in the cup, and then continued: "As a mercenary, drinking only this kind of wine, is it too bad for my worth?"
"I'm a veteran, a veteran, always a little nostalgic."
"It's not unreasonable, then, as a veteran, don't mind taking a few commissions from me."
"Then you have to make an appointment first. This year's time has been contracted by others. You can leave your contact information. After I finish this order, you can contact me."
Very skilled, he took out a pen and paper from his pocket and handed it to Savage. As a professional world-class mercenary, no matter when and where, Death Knell will prepare three things, paper, pen and contract. God knows what kind of business you will receive as soon as you go out. If you don’t prepare these three things, how will your business be carried out? Paper and pen are used to contact potential customers. Contracts are used as evidence of receiving money. Return the goods, and then ask the employer to pay the money, it can't be simpler.
"You can't put mine first. I can add three times the commission for your business." Looking at the pen and paper in front of him, Savage handed it back and said. The most important thing in his life is money. After 50,000 years of accumulation of wealth, the era of barter, the later era of human civilization, he has no problem buying the entire earth with his accumulated wealth, and naturally he doesn't care about this loss. .
"Sorry, as the world's No. 1 mercenary, honesty is my business principle. After I receive an order, I will only start placing an order after it is completed. Just like when some customers ask me to kill his whole family, then I have to kill even the cockroaches in their house. Otherwise, I will not respect the customer. If the customer can't get their ideal answer, it will affect the reputation of my business and the reputation of my business. If it affects me, then I will have no list, and I will have no food if I don't have a list. If you are like this, I can understand that you are going to ruin my job, eh?"
A set of logic that is exclusive to the death knell mercenary theory came down, and Savage didn't know what to do. He didn't want to fall out with mercenaries like the death knell. He had a list in his hand, a world-class criminal, or The list of talents in other fields, the death knell is basically at the top of this list. A mercenary who gets money and does things for you with all his heart. He doesn't do the job well and doesn't take a penny. There is only one conscience mercenary in the world.
More importantly, he has no position. As long as the money is in place, he can backstab his previous employer with a backhand just after completing the last order, and turn his head off without blushing and heartbeat. to you. Therefore, when Savage saw Death Knell appear in Happy Harbor, he probably guessed the reason for his appearance here, and accepted the employment of Batman. He came here just to test Death Knell. As a result, it seems that he is temporarily There is no chance.
However, he still wrote one of his contact information on the pen and paper left by the death knell,
handed it back. "Then, please abide by your mercenary rules yourself and don't interfere casually."
"It's hard to say, I don't mind cutting your head off right now if my employer is willing to pay me extra for my services."
"Then you may not be able to do it in your life. I know your fee standard, 30% of your target net worth as a reward, and my wealth, even 30%, is enough for your employer to go bankrupt. At this point, I use With that long life as a guarantee, he can't afford my life!"
For the death knell's remarks, Savage has enough confidence to say that money, in front of him, who has been the monarch of countless dynasties and has restrained countless wealth in the entire history of mankind, is completely a string A number that doesn't make any sense. Using this to hire Deathstroke to assassinate himself is not his blow. Batman plus all of Lex's property is just buying him a hand at most. And after getting the exact reply from Death Knell, Savage didn't stay here any longer. After paying for all the consumption of the bar today, he walked out.
When he was about to leave Happy Harbor through the shadow space on the side, there was a sound of breaking air in the air, and he moved his footsteps lightly, avoiding the attack from the top of his head, and several feathers like blades. At this time, he was even in the mood to pat the dirt that didn't exist on his body, and looked over his head, Claire with his wings outstretched, and Dick standing on one side of the roof.
"Vandal Savage, did you order all this right!"
"If you want to know the answer, you have to knock me down first, and I just want to know what you learned from him as Batman's first Robin." Putting an offensive posture, Savage provoked Dick. road.
Regarding the provocation from Savage, Dick, who was worried about the comfort of Ke Wen from another world, didn't think too much about it. He waved his double stick and attacked Savage, and Claire in the sky was also evacuated at the first time. the surrounding crowd. At this time, the watchtower on the outskirts of Nassino was in the watchtower, and Batman, who used the global projection to search for the magic circle for Zatara, also suddenly said, "Nightwing and Savage are fighting."
"Do you need me to go?" Superman's voice sounded on the channel.
"No, focus on your mission, Savage doesn't need to worry about it, he's just distracting us, Zatara, have you located the source of that magic?" Za'tar standing beside the global projection device Pull, the magic circle was drawn with both hands, and the incantation was chanted in the mouth. The global projection device of this technological creation was turning frantically under Zatara's incantation, and the sweat of the beans also fell on Zatara's head. Soon, Zatara Tara's efforts were reciprocated, with a prominent red dot flashing across the South Pacific.
"Find the location, Wonder Woman, contact Shazam and let him join us, everyone else, continue to carry out your tasks, it's not time for you to dispatch." After seeing that Zatara found the source of magic, Bat Xia also issued an order at the first time to let other people in Zhenglian divide the labor.
"But we have not yet found a way to connect with another world. From our side, there is no way to destroy this magic." Zatara also emphasized this currently unsolvable problem.
"I know, but don't underestimate your daughter, Mr. Zatara, someone on their side will find a way to break the game and contact us." After saying something mysteriously, Batman walked to the sound explosion channel and faced Zatara. After making an invitation, Zatara, who had no choice, could only follow Batman and leave the sound-explosion channel. And Wonder Woman, who was on the tour, also turned around and flew towards the coordinates sent to her by Batman.
On the other side, the Detroit City Star Lab branch, because the grid stripped off the mechanical body, and the steel frame that hanged his life through electronic equipment was also sent here by his friend Shazam, so that Victor could meet his father. When we met, I just didn't expect such a big thing to happen in one night.
"Billy, why are you still here?" Victor, who had been half asleep, asked when he saw his friend Billy Batson still standing there in the image of Shazam.
"Man, it's all messed up outside now, I have to stay here to keep you safe."
"But that's not what you have to do, now the two worlds need your help." Victor said weakly.
"Hey, please, I'm an adult now, how can I help the other side of the world?" Billy, who is also Shazam, was puzzled. He didn't know why his friend said that.
Lying there, Victor, who basically had one-third of his body remaining, was also annoyed by Billy's tone. "Sometimes I really doubt whether your so-called Solomon's wisdom really exists, don't forget what you are, you are just a 16-year-old student still in middle school, Billy Batson, if anyone can If you can travel freely between the two worlds, it's only you, just shout that word, that's enough." He spit out a sentence speechlessly, and Victor, who was lying there, patiently pointed to Billy.
"yes"
Shazan's surprised tone made Victor lying there almost fall into a state of shock due to his rapid heartbeat. Seeing his friend like this, Billy also knew that he had done something wrong, and hurriedly advised: "Ok, buddy, Don't worry, I'll try it now." After that, he shouted the magic word that belonged to him in the sky: Shazam! A huge lightning bolt directly hit the lightning symbol on Billy's chest through the Star Lab.
The strong light flashed and illuminated the entire laboratory, and Victor, who had adapted from the strong light, also saw that his friend's original position was blank. He succeeded! In the underage world, 16-year-old Billy Batson looked at the empty Stars Laboratory and knew that his friend's guess was right.
"Victor was right, Shazam!" shouted the transformation slogan again, and the thunderbolt chopped Billy back to his adult appearance again and reappeared in front of Victor. "Man, it really succeeded, so what should I do next!" Billy with an excited face, a handsome 30-year-old boy with a child-like smile on his face, made people look a little discordant, surrounded by Victoria Kedo asked at the bedside.
"I... can you act like a fool? I'm a patient now, the kind that's about to die!" If his mechanical body was still there, Victor would definitely face Billy's With a shot in the face, he has become this virtuous, and he still looks stupid. He has made some friends, and he will not bring him to live in peace when he dies.
At this time, Batman's information also came through the Stars Laboratory. "Shazam, where are you"
"Detroit Star Labs, with Victor."
"I sent you the positioning coordinates, fly towards this place, and see you then." After that, he turned off the communication and made Billy prepare to share information with Batman that he could travel back and forth between the two worlds. Calling again to no avail, Billy turned his head again and cast a look of help towards his friend lying on the bed. "Oh, let me die, go to Happy Harbor, change back to a child over there, and you'll know what to do next."
Victor complained, and quickly gave Billy a trick.
"Oh, then I'll go, buddy, are you sure you want to stay here alone, do you need me to notify your father?" Billy, who was about to leave, was lying on the hospital bed and could only breathe on the oxygen supply. Victor couldn't help but feel a little reluctant. Before, they were comrades fighting side by side, but now, they can only lie there and live with the help of equipment.
"My father also has a mission, don't bother him, go, Billy, save these two worlds, although I lost my mechanical body, I'm still the superhero cyborg, don't underestimate your friend. , Shazam."
Showing a somewhat ugly smile to Billy, Victor also cheered Billy, and glanced at Victor who was cheering for him, Billy also turned around, turned into a golden light, and left the Xingchen Laboratory with six gods. One of the powers, Mercury's speed, he is also a speeder. After leaving the Detroit Star Laboratory branch, he also flew in the direction of Happy Harbor and began his heroic journey.
