Chapter 528 The truth of history
As we all know, many legends or myths handed down from ancient times are more or less beautified and processed by later generations. The real situation is often very different from what people spread.
Among the legends passed down in Kandak for thousands of years, Tes Adam is the hero who overthrew the tyrant. Even his huge half-human statue has stood in the territory of Kandak for thousands of years, and is revered by all people.
But the information in the Justice Society's archives shows that the real history is completely different from the legend.
This Tes Adam was not a hero who overthrew the tyrant. Instead, he 'stole' the hero's power and destroyed Khandak in ancient times.
It was precisely because of this that the wizards' council in ancient times had to show up to fight with him. The battle shook the world and almost destroyed one-fifth of Khandak's land.
In the end, Tes Adam was defeated, and then he and the devil's crown were sealed in the ruins by the wizards, which is the ruins where Adriana and the others went.
Looking at this line-by-line text record and the corresponding pictures on the Justice Society database, Adriana felt her scalp numb.
"This is impossible!" Amon couldn't help but said loudly. "How could Adam be the murderer who destroyed Kandak? He is not such a person!"
Zhang Yi looked at Amon quietly without saying anything. He knew that Amon only had a rough look and did not see everything. Moreover, he was still a child and it was normal for him to be unable to control his emotions.
It was Adrianna who took the initiative to speak. "This, the documents above are all authentic, and some of the records are even more comprehensive than what I know."
"How could this happen? This is fake, right? Mom, this must be fake, right?"
Amon grabbed Adriana's arm with both hands. He couldn't believe that Tes Adam, whom he regarded as the hero of Kandak, was actually like this.
But after experiencing Ismael's betrayal, Adrianna had a new view of the world and human nature. She slowly raised her head, not caring about her son, but looking at Zhang Yi.
"How did the Justice Society obtain this information?"
"Remember the two guys from the Justice Society just now? One of them is an archaeological expert who has obtained the power of Naboo, the God of Order, and the other is Prince Khufu who has been reincarnated for thousands of years."
After a pause, Zhang Yi continued.
"The two of them have been active in Egypt all year round, and there are thousands of years of memories of this land in their heads, so it is not difficult to find the history that Kandak has sealed for many years."
Listening to Zhang Yi's explanation, Adriana felt a chill creeping up her back. She did not think about the possibility that Zhang Yi had deceived her, because there was no need at all.
"Does that mean everything written on it is true?"
"It's guaranteed to be replaced if it's fake." Zhang Yi nodded slightly.
"I, I released the murderer who destroyed Kandak thousands of years ago?" Adrianna covered her face and lowered her head with mixed feelings.
At this moment, she finally figured out why the people from the Justice Society came to Kandak at this time, and she also knew why the two superheroes were rude and aggressive to Adam.
Because according to the records of the Justice Society, Tes Adam is a super criminal with the ability to destroy the world, and he made this mistake thousands of years ago.
If the wizard council hadn't defeated and sealed Tes Adam, Khandak would have even been slaughtered and destroyed by him.
"Thankfully we still believe in him and even keep his statue. It turns out that we in Kandak have been living in deception all this time."
Looking at the painful Adrianna, Amon comforting her, and Karin who was at a loss, Zhang Yi sighed quietly.
In fact, the whole story was a 'wonderful' misunderstanding.
There is actually nothing wrong with Kandak's faith, but I don't know if it has been spread for thousands of years that many truths have been buried or something. The people of Kandak today do not have a special understanding of the true historical situation.
There is no problem with the information in the Justice Society's archives. Adam did 'steal' Shazam's power and destroy the ancient city of Kandak.
But the key to history is that the truth of events often lies in the minds of those who write the history books.
Most of the information and documents in the Justice Society's archives come from the records of the wizard Shazam, but the question is, Adam was the one sealed by the wizard Shazam back then. Could he have written anything good for Adam?
For this guy who does not inherit the power of Shazam, but who possesses the power of Shazam, the wizards will definitely not regard him as a good thing.
Therefore, after seeing these documents written with embarrassment by wizards, the superheroes of the Justice Society were naturally not prepared to save any face for Adam who broke free from the seal.
They came this time to seal Adam again.
Perhaps Hawkman and Doctor Destiny had the slightest possibility of talking to Adam, but as soon as they arrived here, they saw Adam committing a massacre.
Even though he was killing villains from the International Gang, the first impression of his ruthlessness and disregard for life had already been engraved in the eyes of the two heroes, so what happened next was logical.
Of course, a misunderstanding was a misunderstanding, and Zhang Yi did not let these two people off easily.
Can the people of your Justice Society go to other countries to use force because of a misunderstanding? The universe has finally got on the right track, and Zhang Yi doesn't want to cause any trouble again at this time.
As a superhero, if he can't even do the most basic mathematical intelligence, what should he do if he encounters a bigger disaster in the future? Is it necessary to engage in a heroic civil war?
Thinking of this, Zhang Yi shook her head, then looked at Adrianna and said. "Don't be too sad. In fact, I have another piece of information about Tes Adam, which may be able to complete the puzzle of history."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhang Yi, but Zhang Yi didn't show off and spoke directly.
"The Justice Society's information is indeed correct, but there are still some problems with the details. As far as I know, the Wizards' Council often passes on Shazam's power to children, and Tes Adam's age is obviously not within the wizards' choice.
In other words, Adam Tes was indeed not the first Shazam. The person who obtained Shazam's divine power at that time was his son, not Adam himself. So, in this way, "taking" Shazam's divine power is a bit It’s worth pondering. "
"Yes, as a father, Adam, how could he take away his son's power? They are relatives whose blood is thicker than water." As a mother, Adriana could understand this sentence very well.
"You just said that Khandak has preserved the bust of Adam Tes for thousands of years, but you have also seen Adam with your own eyes. To be honest, do you think Adam is very similar to that stone sculpture?" Zhang Yi reminded again.
Adriana's reaction was quick, and she immediately understood what Zhang Yi meant.
"You want to say that the legend that has been handed down for thousands of years is wrong. The hero who overthrew the tyrant's rule was not Tes Adam, but his son. That stone statue was also carved after his son?"
Having said this, Adrianna frowned again. She looked directly at Zhang Yi and asked curiously. "But how to explain Adam's destruction of Khandak, and why the wizard sealed him away?"
"On this point, I think it's better for Tes Adam to speak for himself."
Zhang Yi smiled slightly and immediately stood up from the sofa.
"You guys wait here for a while, I'll go get those three guys back."
After saying this, without giving the three people present time to react, Zhang Yi turned around, and his whole body seemed to have been erased by an eraser, and he instantly disappeared in front of Adrianna's family.
On the other side, in the mirror space.
There was only a loud sound of metal collision, and a golden figure fell directly from the sky like a meteor, hitting a building heavily, and directly smashed through the building.
And above the sky, a figure who kept punching was steadily suspended in the air. This person was none other than Black Adam.
Before he could move forward to finish the attack, a life symbol made of golden energy behind him blasted straight towards him.
He raised his hand to block, and the symbol composed of pure magical energy was instantly shattered, but Black Adam did not leave any scars, and even his body suspended in the air did not move.
Looking at Doctor Fate wearing a golden helmet in the distance, Black Adam's arms originally used for defense suddenly straightened out, and destructive thunder energy burst out in the blink of an eye.
Dr. Destiny only had time to gather a crystal clear golden barrier. The next moment, the thick lightning came in front of him and directly hit the barrier in front of him.
Feeling the magical energy that was constantly being shattered and stripped away, even Dr. Fate was secretly frightened.
"Your magic is too fierce, even more powerful than mine. I will not let this energy destroy this world."
As soon as the words fell, Dr. Destiny suddenly opened the barrier, and he himself was instantly penetrated by the power of thunder, causing an astonishing explosion.
But Doctor Fate was not killed by the thunder. Instead, he turned into countless clones at the moment of the explosion. Doctor Fate spread out one by one, surrounding Black Adam from all sides.
In this regard, Black Adam remained expressionless. He stared at the figure rushing toward him indifferently, and punched him directly.
The powerful force and speed instantly tore apart a clone of Doctor Destiny in front of him. The phantom shattered like cracked glass, and quickly turned into magical energy and dissipated in the air.
But this blow did not affect the other clones of Doctor Destiny. They swarmed forward and rushed towards Black Adam one after another.
