Chapter 278 Next Target
Standing quietly, Zhang Yi looked at the roaring Billy calmly.
The surrounding collapsed cities eventually turned into ruins. Red flames and smoke became the main colors of the dream. In the center, Billy's broken and thin body was particularly obvious.
It’s hard to imagine what a fifteen-year-old boy would become after experiencing such a thing. In his most vigorous years, he almost died on the battlefield of an alien planet, and his home was about to be destroyed. For a child It's simply unacceptable.
".Don't you want to say something?"
Billy, who was breathing heavily, slowly calmed down. He stared at Zhang Yi, who still kept a calm face and remained silent, and his body shook a bit.
After a pause, Zhang Yi spoke.
"I won't advise you to stay calm, Billy. This is not your responsibility, nor is it the pressure you should bear. You need to vent, and this is what the entire Justice League owes you."
Looking at Zhang Ye blankly, Billy could no longer suppress the pain in his heart, and tears burst out of his eyes.
Slowly approaching Billy, Zhang Yi didn't know how to comfort him. There is no 100% empathy in the world, just like there is no true circle in the world.
Putting his arm on Billy's shoulder, Zhang Yi didn't say anything, just stood there quietly.
Zhang Yi has always been bad at comforting people, so he can only do his best to accompany him silently. After all, these emotions have to be digested and resolved by Billy himself in the end, and outsiders cannot help.
Unless, erase his memory and let him forget these unbearable past
But after hesitating for a moment, Zhang Yi gave up the idea.
The divine power of the Greek gods is still flowing through Billy's body, and those great powers have deeply become a part of Billy. Even the old gods have not given up on Billy, so I should give him more time.
For a long time, Billy has been smiling in front of outsiders, but what is hidden behind the smile is pain that ordinary people cannot understand. He has always regarded himself as a member of the Justice League, and he should be the one who protects the people.
But only he understands that he is just a child and he has put too much pressure on himself. No matter how he tries to cover it up, these emotions and negative energy will still find him when he is most vulnerable.
".Me, my family, my friends"
While sobbing, Billy clenched his fists.
".All.Dead"
In the Justice League, Shazam is on an equal footing with them. Heroes including Superman will regard Shazam as their peer, but for the younger generation of Teen Titans, they regard Shazam as their predecessor. Very respectful.
However, only a few people know that Shazam's true identity is just a kid who is younger than all of them. Even the youngest hero in the Teen Titans is older than Billy.
And Billy is also very keen to put on the airs of his seniors in front of these big brothers and sisters, which makes him very happy and is also his favorite thing to do.
But now, my brothers and sisters have all died.
Billy's mood was as if his soul was being tortured, and the pain was beyond words.
Looking at Billy, who was pale and clenched his fists, Zhang Yi deeply felt his mental haggard. Billy had been tortured like this for countless days and nights in the past two years.
"."
It didn't last long, and Billy silently put on the red hoodie, hiding his face in the shadows.
".Sorry, I don't usually do that."
"I know, you are very strong." Zhang Yi smiled slightly, admiring Billy very much.
"snort"
Billy turned around and snorted softly, then he calmed down and spoke in a hoarse voice. "You're right, sometimes it feels better to vent."
"Then, are you willing to come out again?" Zhang Yi asked.
Hearing this, Billy tilted his head and replied pretending to be strong. "What are you talking about? I am a superhero. I will not give up on this path. I will avenge my family."
Finally, Billy added another sentence.
".I don't want a third person to know what happened just now."
His eyes passed over a peeping crow, Zhang Yi coughed dryly, and then he politely did not answer the question, but turned to ask a somewhat serious question.
"We need to get the rest of the people together first. I'm in Gotham right now, with Batgirl and Batwoman. Billy, where are you now?"
"My goal is to destroy the gathering points of those demonoids. I have no fixed place to live during this period. Louise contacted me before, but I don't want to contact them. If you need it, I can go find you to gather." Billy thought for a moment and said.
"That would be great if possible. How long will it take for you to arrive?"
"I'm not far away, within two days. If I want to gather with you, then I have to avoid the attention of those demonoids, which will slow down my progress." Billy said seriously.
"Time is not a problem, your safety is the most important." Zhang Yi suddenly remembered that he had almost forgotten the purpose of his trip, so he asked again. "By the way, Billy, do you know where there is magic in this world?"
"Magic?" Billy was stunned for a moment after hearing this, as if he didn't understand what Zhang Yi wanted to express.
"To put it simply, it is an energy source or carrying body with strange energy. Rare and exotic beasts from other planes can also be used." Zhang Ye explained.
"I probably understand. You should be talking about a power similar to divine power. If the Rock of Eternity is still there, maybe I can help you, but now, whether it is demonic power or a portal to other planes They’ve all disappeared, and I don’t know how to help you.”
Billy shook his head silently, but he quickly thought of a candidate.
"Perhaps, you can ask Constantine, he has many skills about magic."
Constantine.
Zhang Yi's teeth were aching. It's a pity that there is no Justice Society of America in this world. It would be great if Dr. Destiny were here. There must be a lot of forbidden knowledge about magic stored in the helmet.
If it were a normal universe, Zhang Yi would definitely not be able to swallow the Helmet of Destiny, because it would be no different from killing a superhero, but if it were a universe on the edge of doom, it would be different.
What a pity.
However, looking at Billy, Zhang Yi suddenly thought of something.
"Billy, if I remember correctly, you said before that the Rock of Eternity was destroyed, right?"
"Yes, demonoids have destroyed many places on the earth." Billy replied.
"That"
Zhang Yi looked at Billy with piercing eyes and asked softly.
"Where are the seven deadly sins that were sealed by the wizard Shazam now?"
Upon hearing this, Billy froze for a moment.
