Chapter 792: Black Panther Visits
The splendid UN Economic and Social Council Conference Hall, with a total of more than 700 seats, in addition to representatives of various countries, there are more than 100 public seats and nearly 100 press seats, and it is also the largest conference hall in the United Nations Conference Building.
Therefore, such a conference hall has also become the best time for some small countries to express their demands, and often some delegates who have never heard the name of a country make some thunderous proposals in order to attract attention, so this conference hall is the most important and the most boring.
Just like today, a group of members of the public and journalists who have gone through a lot of hardships to get a place in the entrance are sitting in their seats with a bored face, if it weren't for this serious occasion, they would all want to take out their mobile phones to play or listen to songs with headphones, so as to pass the boring time.
The reason for this is that the king from Wakanda, a small and impoverished African country, is still a king, not a president, which means that the country is barbaric, extremely backward, and maybe there are primitive tribes or even cannibals.
In such a small country, there is nothing worth paying attention to at all, even if he writes down every word he says, he can't put together a press release, why bother to listen to it, if the UN General Assembly can leave, maybe even the representatives of various countries want to leave, so as not to listen to nonsense or sensational proposals.
Although the king of Wakanda, T'Chaka, is old and frail, but he is in good spirits, wearing a decent suit, and talks endlessly about Wakanda's latest resolution: "... The world is changing, and Wakanda has decided to abandon tradition and let more Wakandans see the outside world, and let more people know about Wakanda..."
His words contain a lot of information, if a closed country wants to lift the blockade and throw itself into the arms of the world, if this country is replaced by a rabbit or a giant bear that it wants to join NATO, then all the delegates and reporters will jump up and immediately rush out to send a report back home.
But this is an extremely backward and extremely poor agricultural country, and its GDP is not as high as a county town, let alone an open country, that is, a national election to elect a president, there is nothing worth paying attention to.
To put it nicely, an open country is not so poor that it can't survive, and if you want to engage in tourism, or you want the United Nations Food Programme and other charitable organizations to support Wakanda or something, there is no news explosion, so you take two photos symbolically, and then maintain the surface politeness, but in fact, you are wandering around the world.
T'Challa, who was standing not far behind his father, also saw the reaction of the audience, he had studied in various countries in his early years, so he naturally knew that in the eyes of outsiders, Wakanda was an extremely backward and poor country, and no one paid much attention to it.
That is, in order to show fairness, the United Nations gives small countries the opportunity to speak, otherwise they may not even have a place to sit, of course, don't think that it is useful to speak, just let you speak, no matter how good the diplomat says, in the end, you can only sit in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, silent, useless, nothing can stop it.
T'Chaka ended his speech with 'working together for world peace', and the representatives and reporters of various countries applauded one after another, and after the leaders of the Games finished speaking, the students basking in the sun below applauded excitedly, and the black panther father and son also nodded politely, smiled, and returned to their seats.
This was the end of their appearance at the UN General Assembly, and all that remained was to listen to the speeches and, if they were lucky, perhaps even hear the wonderful pictures of the hooligans fighting each other, and the meeting lasted until noon, when the delegates of various countries left the venue one after another, divided into different small groups, and exchanged their views.
The Black Panther father and son did not join the small circle of poor Africa, and even if they rarely did before, they talked about nothing more than how to get aid from the big powers, how to find ways to forgive loans, and so on.
Wakanda didn't need any of this at all, so naturally they didn't have any interest in their conversation, just to avoid being eye-catching, and now there was naturally no need to be perfunctory, the two of them left out of the conference building, went to the parking lot, drove their very inconspicuous 'cheap car', turned left and drove in the direction of the Avengers Building.
T'Challa, who was driving, looked at the road ahead and asked, "Father, I'd better put on my panther uniform." ”
Two days ago, he had a fight with Stark, which was extremely unpleasant, and now he comes to the door, which is a bit of a self-throwing net or kicking the gym. And his father didn't let him wear a panther uniform, if the other party wanted to do something, wouldn't he even have a chance to fight back.
T'Chaka smiled and asked, "Can you win Hulk by wearing the Black Panther suit?" ”
T'Challa didn't want to answer the most obvious question.
"So why bring useless things? I am the king of Wakanda, and I am here to attend the United Nations General Assembly, and this is our strongest suit. ”
The conflict between the two sides is so great that the Jabari tribe would rather live on the top of the snow-capped mountains than go down to the mountain, like other tribes, in the technological society of Wakanda.
Every battle for the throne is bloody and cruel, once the performance is a little weaker, there will be countless people to pounce, especially now that his father T'Chaka is old and weak, he will temporarily replace the position of Black Panther, and if you want to continue to take over the throne, you must be good enough and your own toughness.
He almost sat down and reflected, and his mistakes in this mission allowed Stark to steal nearly half a ton of vibranium. also exposed the Black Panther suit and the Wakanda flying machine, but it was not all fruitless, at least knowing that Stark's exploration of Wakanda was not all fruitless, he got effective information, otherwise he would not have developed a sonic weapon to restrain the vibranium suit.
Then, when you go back, you have to investigate the protective shield in detail to see what went wrong, so that Stark drilled Confucius, so that all of them investigated Wakanda's secrets.
If you can't find the problem, then you need to find out where Stark got the news from, know the frequency of sound waves, and be able to restrain the vibranium suit. You must know that although the sonic cannon can be used to mine vibranium, it does not mean that the industrial sonic cannon can deal with the vibranium suit, it must be changed according to the vibranium suit, and the power must be increased.
But what is even more worrying is whether this failed trip will expose the existence of Wakanda, the most important reason why Wakanda can be isolated for so long, the most important reason is that countries are not interested in extremely poor and backward agricultural countries, but half a ton of vibranium is enough to explain a lot of problems.
Okoye sat back in the driver's seat and flew in the direction of Wakanda, neither of them mentioned chasing Stark's Kun fighter, and lost on the ground, and I am afraid that it will lose even worse if it is replaced in the air, after all, the Black Panther can't fly, but the Iron Man suit can fly freely.
The speed of the Wakanda aircraft was extremely fast, and before T'Chaka could come up with a reason, it had already reached Wakanda's airspace, and the aircraft began to lower its altitude, flying over grasslands, jungles, and finally reaching a continuous mountain range.
Okoye lowered the height of the aircraft to a hundred meters, and slammed straight into the lush mountain, just as it was about to hit the mountain, the aircraft suddenly disappeared, but the trees did not even shake the blades.
The aircraft passes through the protective shield, and inside is a modern city on the shore of a lake, with high-rise buildings, highways, and bustling streets with people and vehicles shuttling back and forth, not inferior to Manhattan.
The square in front of the palace had opened automatically, raising the tarmac for the aircraft to land on it, and the rear hatch opened, and T'Challa walked out without saying a word, and behind him Okoye carried a spear and pressed Ulysses Crowe, who was handcuffed and handcuffed.
Ulysses Crowe, who was full of flesh, did not have the consciousness of a prisoner, and when he saw Queen Ramanda and Princess Surui who greeted T'Challa, he said with a smile: "Oh, oh, the queen and princess have come to greet me personally, do you want me to be king?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Okoye shook the spear in his hand violently, and the metal rod smashed into the crook of Ulysses Crowe's legs, causing him to bend his legs, and suddenly knelt on the metal square, and his knees also hurt, making Ulysses Crowe's face look painful, but he stubbornly raised his head, glanced at everyone in the field, and said, "A group of barbarians, only..."
Before he finished speaking, T'Challa, who was already in a very bad mood, turned around suddenly, kicked Ulysses Crowe in the chest, kicked him out directly, and slammed into the flying machine, causing Ulysses Crowe to let out a muffled snort and almost stopped breathing.
"T'Challa!" With a stern shout, Okoye hurriedly bowed his head and crossed his arms in front of his chest, saluted Wakanda, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty." ”
An old man with gray hair and gorgeous costumes walked over with a women's guard, glanced at Ulysses Crowe, who was clutching his chest and his face full of pain, before turning his head to look at T'Challa and saying solemnly: "The panther must always control his emotions and not be swallowed up by anger, greed, and jealousy. ”
"I'm sorry, father," T'Challa said ashamedly, "only the murderer was captured, and the vibranium was snatched away." ”
T'Chaka, Wakanda's current pastor, nodded, stretched out his hand to Ulysses Crowe, and said, "Lock him up and wait for the Council of Tribal Elders to decide on his guilt." ”
The women's guards behind them walked out of the two, grabbed Ulysses Crowe, and forcibly dragged him away, while Ulysses Crowe was still impotently shouting: "You are a bunch of barbarians, you don't know how to be free at all..."
Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was gagged, and all that was left was 'Woo! Woo! The voice faded away.
T'Chaka motioned for T'Chaka to follow, and said as he walked: "Wakanda relies on vibranium to develop, which is the foundation of Wakanda's existence, once outsiders know that Wakanda's vibranium is piled up, there will be no peace here." ”
As he spoke, the two of them had walked to the edge of the platform, from where they could clearly see the lake at the edge of the city, it was already dusk, and the sun was reflected in the sparkling lake, which was a beautiful sunset of lakes and mountains.
"I'll bring vibranium back."
The old panther T'Chaka waved his hand and said, "No, T'Challa, we have a mine of vibranium, and those vibranium are nothing. Tony Stark was nothing more than a steel suit to make, and he was also worried that others would know that he had so much vibranium. ”
"Is that all?" T'Challa was very unwilling, suffered such a big loss, and lost so much vibranium, did it just happen if it hadn't happened?
"No," T'Chaka shook his head and said, "I'm going to give a speech at the United Nations General Assembly the day after tomorrow, and then I can visit the Avengers Tower and meet Tony Stark." ”
"I'll go too."
"If you don't say it, I'll take you too," T'Chaka patted his son on the shoulder with a smile and said, "The world is changing, and Wakanda must change with it, and our traditions may have come to change." ”
"But aren't you worried about vibranium?" T'Challa was a little puzzled, just now his father was worried that outsiders knew that Wakanda had a mountain of vibranium, why did he say that he was going to change the tradition now?
"The technology of the people outside is also improving, no matter how strong the shield is, there will be a day when it will be broken, it is not Tony Stark's drone, there will be others, no matter how thick the rhinoceros skin is, it will be torn apart by the sharp claws and teeth of the cheetah, and the king of the grassland relies on strength to make people dare not approach his territory, instead of building high walls."
"What are we supposed to do?"
"Extend the hand of peace and strive to improve the world shared by mankind."
"You mean technology sharing?"
"There is a saying in the outside world, there is a free lunch in this world," T'Chaka said with a smile: "A backward agricultural country can also become a developed country by exporting high technology." ”
T'Challa pondered for a moment before he said, "It's hard for the Council of Tribal Elders to agree to open Wakanda. ”
The king is the supreme leader of Wakanda, but he cannot act willfully, and a council of elders from various tribes will check and balance the king's power, and also serve as his right and left hand, helping to deal with Wakanda's affairs.
The stubbornness of old age is harder than stone, Wakanda has been closed for so long, and there are many people who stick to tradition, such as the Jabari tribe who believe in gorilla Hanuman, and even feel that the development of technology is heresy, so they have been living on the top of the snowy mountains, and are unwilling to contact the technologically advanced city of Wakanda.
T'Chaka nodded, he also knew the difficulty of this matter, but for the sake of Wakanda's future, it must be done, Wakanda implements an elite strategy, only a very small number of elites can go to other countries to study, and others cannot leave Wakanda for the rest of their lives, it is by virtue of this strategy that Wakanda's secrets have been preserved to this day, and only a few traitors have been produced.
But the result of this is that many Wakanda people don't know what the outside world is like, and they are completely sitting in the well and watching the sky, which is not conducive to the development of a country, especially the more developed science and technology, the more scientists are needed, and Wakanda can no longer implement the policy of ignoring the people, otherwise it will be caught up by the outside world sooner or later.
T'Chaka said with great emotion: "There are always things that must be done no matter how difficult they are, and this is the duty of the king. ”
