"Let me be frank, I don't like Harley Quinn's abilities and I am not willing to sign a shazam contract with her." Old Shazam was very straightforward.
"Sign a contract with her and not choose her to join the current Shazam group, or even let her never become 'H'. It will have no impact on you or Thunder Shazam." Nabu said.
Old Shazam stared at him for a long time, and said from his mind: "Naboo, you are not a warm-hearted good man. What do you want to do with your persistence today?"
"I want to know the secret of Harley Quinn's power." Naboo was also very straightforward.
"Did you convince the Stranger? Harley Quinn came to him probably to check the terms of the contract. I can't deceive him." Old Shazam asked.
Nabu said: "The Stranger won't help us, you don't have to tamper with the terms. I didn't want to steal Harley Quinn's power, I just doubted her power..."
"What doubts do you have?" Old Shazam asked curiously.
"There are too many things about her that are questionable, such as this 'Hard Kung Fu God of War'. Neither you nor Stranger noticed anything unusual about her. Don't you think it's strange?"
"It's normal that Stranger and I are not as good as you. You have penetrated deeply into the sea of laws, surpassed the ordinary laws, and started to formulate new rules." Old Shazam said with envy and respect.
Naboo glanced at Harley and Stranger, both of whom noticed that he and Shazam were communicating spiritually.
He was determined to put an end to this unfriendly and easily arousing way of communication, so he said directly: "Adding her to the shazam list will do no harm to you, but it will give you a chance to analyze the origin of her power."
"Alas, the loopholes in the laws have been fixed long ago," Old Shazam ignored Naboo's attention and continued to talk in his mind. "The Singularity Curse to become a god means discovering the loopholes in the laws and then plugging them with new laws.
I used to be able to use the shazam spell to borrow divine power without any side effects. While using the divine power of the gods, I also understood the secrets of the laws in divine power.
Now that the shazam curse has changed, even I have been greatly restricted, otherwise there wouldn’t be so many gods signing shazam contracts with me.”
"At least you can analyze the basic attributes of Harley Quinn's supernatural power, right?"
"Of course, if you don't even know what the attributes are, how can you combine them to form the strongest shazam?" Old Shazam said matter-of-factly.
If you do not understand the attributes of divine power, it is likely that the attributes of the six gods in Shazam will be repeated.
For example, if you choose three gods of wisdom but no god of strength, Thunder Shazam's intelligence will not increase much, but his strength will weaken to that of an ordinary person.
"It's enough to understand the basic attributes of her power." Nabu said.
"What's the use of knowing the attributes? You can easily understand her power attributes by asking her directly or observing her fighting." Old Shazam asked puzzledly.
"Just because I have been observing her, I have a lot of doubts in my mind. For example, when the Green Lantern Corps imprisoned her in the central energy battery, Green Lantern suffered from digestive defects, will defects, and magic resistance defects.
This shows that Harley Quinn has law-level expertise in digestion, willpower, and magic resistance.
During the battle with the Green Lantern Corps, she easily shattered the Green Lantern energy manifestation, and even the Green Lantern energy of the Guardian of the Universe became unstable.
This is another peculiarity.
There is also the yellow light energy in her body. The Parallax monster has been extracted long ago, so why has she not shown signs of energy exhaustion?
I guess that the yellow light energy in her body is not only decreasing but not increasing..."
Old Shazam suddenly realized, "You suspect that her strength attribute is not just for defense, and that defense may even be a cover."
"That's right."
"Is Harley Quinn worthy of your attention?" Old Shazam asked again doubtfully.
"She is 'Witch Harley'. Considering what she has done, it would be abnormal for me not to pay attention to it."
Old Shazam was speechless.
...
Old Shazam looked at Harley and said, "Dr. Destiny and I communicated in the spiritual space for a while, and he convinced me.
Before signing the contract, I will first explain the rights and obligations of both parties.
Shazam contracts can add a lock to your power and open a window. Outsiders can use your power, but they cannot crack your secrets.
Whether you join the shazam combo or not, the lock that protects the secret of your power is always there.
This is one of the benefits you can get.
After signing the contract, you also have obligations. When I decide to let you become the 'H' in shazam, you can't refuse.
Of course, this is not a problem for you, I can’t let you become ‘H’.”
"It seems that the benefits obviously outweigh the obligations. If the initials of the gods' real names were in shazam, wouldn't they be crying and asking you to sign a contract?" Harley asked doubtfully.
"You think they don't have them?" Old Shazam smiled proudly, thunder and lightning flashed, and an old parchment scroll appeared in front of her.
In addition to the terms of the shazam contract, there are also the signatures of dozens of gods.
The names are written in different ways, but they all sparkle with power.
"Who is this Zonuz?" Harley was soon attracted by the unfamiliar god's name in the "Z" column. "His divine power seems to be stronger than Zeus. Why have I never heard of this person?"
"
"You have good eyesight," Old Shazam glanced at her in surprise, "Zonos is the strongest new god, and should be on par with God King Zeus.
But now is the era of new gods, the glory of the old gods is no longer there, and Zeus may be weaker than Zonos."
"Isn't the most powerful new god Darkseid?"
Old Shazam said: "Darkseid didn't just pop out of a rock. He has parents. Zonos is Yuga Khan and is Darkseid's father.
Now do you understand the value of this contract?
Being ranked alongside these great gods is an honor worthy of bragging for a lifetime."
"I don't know Zonos, but I know Darkseid's father, Yuga Khan, an unlucky guy who was hung on the wall of origin and couldn't get off.
He actually wants to sit side by side with me, but I don't want to stay on the wall for a long time." Harley said calmly.
"Don't think that getting down from the Origin Wall is a big deal..." After saying these words, old Shazam himself felt embarrassed, "Well, you didn't get down by your own ability, so you have no right to be proud."
"What am I proud of? I just came down from the wall of origin. I went up and down, up and down again. It's easier than eating and drinking. How can I be proud of it?" Harley said calmly.
Old Shazam was choked to the point of being speechless and could only blow his beard and stare.
"There is no problem with the contract." The stranger looked away from the parchment and nodded to Harry.
"Do you think I should sign it?" At the end of the day, Harley hesitated.
"For you, you can sign it or not." The Stranger said slowly: "Whether it's the Shazam Contract or lending power to Wonder Woman, it's one of the ways of spiritual cultivation.
The realm and strength of the gods have not changed for thousands or tens of thousands of years. They will seek every method that can make them further.
You haven't encountered any bottlenecks in your practice yet. Your strength and realm are steadily improving, and you just need to continue on your current path.
If you want to broaden your horizons and understand other methods of cultivation, that’s okay.”
Harley secretly sighed, in fact, she had already encountered a bottleneck.
Before level 80, it was already extremely difficult to level up. After level 80, she didn't know who to look for to level up quickly.
Earth's superheroes, super criminals, and undersea people were all masturbated.
Her trend of upgrading will definitely not stop, but the speed will undoubtedly be much slower.
Defense upgrade is no longer her main means to improve her actual combat capabilities.
But the defensive specialty of the evolved treasure is her foundation.
Just because it's fully upgraded, you can't just throw it aside and look for other ways to improve your strength.
In this way, studying the path of "Thick-skinned Martial God" related to defense upgrade seems to be a better choice for her at this stage - if the rules of gods in the DC universe also apply to her "adding points to become a god".
"Are you still hesitating?" Old Shazam was about to sneer when Harley put her thumb on the end of the scroll and wrote her name behind the name of an unknown god starting with the letter "H".
There was no need to deliberately bite her fingers, she accurately controlled the blood to seep out along the pores, her thumb was like a brush with endless ink, writing her true name with the strongest blood power.
"Eh-" Old Shazam watched the bloody name flash with a golden-red light, slowly turning into a dull black. He couldn't help but screamed in surprise, looked at Harley and said strangely: "I didn't expect you to really become a god, with divine power.
The law of resonance is still very powerful..."
There are dozens of gods' names, and the strength of the gods can be inferred through the aura emanating from the names.
To Old Shazam's surprise, Harley's aura was not the weakest, but even ranked above average.
This shocked him.
"Mortals can't sign?" Harley asked.
"The Shazam Contract is actually a law, a law that I use to repair loopholes in the rules of the universe. If you want to write your name on it, you must resonate with the sea of laws.
It's like meeting the king, at least getting the qualification to enter the king's residence." Old Shazam's tone was less scornful, and his eyes were more respectful.
Then he asked: "How do you feel now?"
"Hmm..." Harry squinted his eyes, united all his thoughts, and carefully sensed the changes in his body. "A stream of heat descended from the sky, flowed along the limbs and bones into the heart, and then flowed back from the heart to all parts of the body.
It seems that as long as someone shouts 'Shazam', the blood power in my body will boil, and I will be wrapped in the heat and rush out of the zenith cover and enter the inexplicable area."
"What a beautiful idea, you are not in the shazam sequence at all." Old Shazam sneered.
"Is it an illusion?" Harley frowned.
She really felt like she was connected to a pipe and could lend her power easily.
"It's an illusion, not a hallucination." Old Shazam thought for a while and said: "The spell that triggers the loss of power in your body is definitely not 'Shazam', but it can be something else.
For example, if someone shouts ‘Harley Quinn’, your power will immediately cross the void and pour into his body.”
"Like War Eagle and White Dove? Why do they call 'War Eagle' instead of the real name of the god behind War Eagle?" Harley asked.
"Shazam is not my real name either. Except for those old gods who are famous and draw faith, who would take out their real name and let mortals shout it in public?" Old Shazam said disapprovingly.
"Oh, I'm so famous that the gods and demons in the sky will never forget me. I can't change my vest even if I want to." Harley lamented.
"Don't think too much. You haven't learned the 'Shazam God's Curse' yet, so you can't lend your power to mortals." Old Shazam said.
"Is it the spell used by the gods behind War Eagle and White Dove? You can teach me." Harley asked expectantly.
"The divine spell needs magic power to drive it. Come to me when you have magic power."
"Have you figured out the law of your own resonance now?" Nabu stared at her with burning eyes and asked.
Harley nodded slightly.
After communicating with the sea of laws through the shazam contract, a kind of enlightenment came to my mind.
She guessed right, it really was 'god by adding more points'.
When the body's defense is raised to 80 points by adding points, the universe 'mistakes' it as a kind of training.
When you practice a certain skill to the extreme, you become a god.
