Chapter 253: The Situation Changes (Three Changes!) )
As mentioned earlier, Wakanda is a relatively xenophobic place, so few outsiders have visited their capital for many years. Due to the special situation this time, Richard was the first outsider to enter Wakanda in years, and because it was the Black Panther who personally led the entry, he even saved the formalities.
Wakanda's system of power and management is archaic, and everything has to be nodded by the king. It didn't take long for Richard to meet the old king, the former Black Panther.
This old king is actually quite miserable in the MCU. As the former Black Panther, he is also a strong person who has a five-to-five relationship with the American team, but he made his first appearance at the United Nations in the movie, and he hiccups directly before the audience can remember what he looks like.
When he first saw this old king in the movie, Richard was thinking, can this old man with a big belly and a middle-aged fat look really be a black panther? Not to mention whether he can fight in martial arts, first of all, can his stomach be stuffed into the vibranium tights of the black panther?
And the Panther physique should be similar to Captain America, and it stands to reason that their super soldier's physique should not be so easy to gain weight. But when he thought of the fat house Thor in Avengers 4, Richard was immediately relieved. The recipe for fried chicken cheese in Marvel must be a little different from what he knows, and the dignified Thor can eat it in a few years, and there seems to be nothing impossible for others.
From Wakanda's point of view, Richard is still a civil servant in the government of a few countries, barely half an envoy. The old king was still quite concerned about the emergence of xenobiological beasts in his territory, and when he heard that Richard was an expert, he pulled him and asked him a lot of questions.
If Richard said he was an expert in some other field, he would be bragging, but if he claimed to be second in the field of xenobiotic biology, then there must be no arrogant guy on this planet who would dare to call him first.
This piece of Richard blows up without any psychological burden. He started with Pedron and went all the way to The One, blowing through all the characteristics of the xenobiotic beasts he had faced, the performance in TV works, and even the settings in the surrounding magazines, which made the old king stunned.
To the old king's ears, these monsters have thick skin, strong resistance and resilience, and their abilities are strange, and they are almost invincible. Naturally, curious, he asked them how the "Victory Team" had defeated the creatures.
Of course, Richard can't say, "Actually, it's all Ultraman's doing, we're just paddling the whole time", doesn't that mean that their non-existent "victory team" eggs are useless?
So he thought about it for a while, and began to retell the several cases in the TV series where the Night Raiders killed the Xenobiotic Beasts alone. Not to mention that the Night Raid Team is quite a powerful team in the Ultraman series, and the number of times they kill Xenobiotes alone is really not small. Richard added to the situation, describing each battle as extremely dangerous, as if they had to endure hardships and deaths to kill the Xenobiotic every time.
Although the old king did not believe it, at least the xenobiotic beasts that appeared on the border of Wakanda before could not be faked. So he couldn't help sighing, saying that the world is changing today, and the external situation is also ever-changing, and his words faintly reveal the meaning of wanting to integrate into the current world pattern.
Richard also asked casually, saying that you have such a developed technology in Wakanda, why don't you communicate with other countries?
The old king shook his head. He did not mention the Wakanda traditions and the obstruction of the old obstinacy of the royal family, which were not suitable for outsiders. But he vaguely referred to the dissatisfaction of his fellow Africans with the outside world, and he felt that blacks were being treated unfairly because of the color of their skin.
Richard immediately corrected his opinion.
Injustice? Are you always joking? Do you know how influential your fellow Africans are in the world right now?
As I just told you, S.H.I.E.L.D., you know? An international organization, the world's largest spy agency, and the world's only land, sea and air amphibious floating carrier! Awesome, right? Our head is a black man with pure blood, black as a braised egg, without a trace of impurities!
And you haven't heard that it's hard to do anything now without black participation. For example, if there is no black person in the crew and protagonist group, this drama will fight! On the other hand, if you want to make a movie that is all black people from the lead actor to the villain and even the role of the character, then don't say anything, just get ready to start writing your Oscar acceptance speech!
And that's not all. Richard firmly said that if a person smokes, drinks, fights, and takes drugs, then this product has nothing to do with politics in this life. But what if you're still black? It doesn't matter if you dare to think about it, you might even become the president of the United States!
Of course, this must not be taken seriously, but it must be how enjoyable it must be......
The old king was a little dazed when he heard this, and although he was still skeptical, he did always have the idea of reform. He felt that Wakanda might indeed be a little too closed over the years, and his understanding of the outside world was too old. After all, this is a rapidly changing world, and it is not an option to work behind closed doors all day.
Of course, Richard just casually mentioned that the old king could have such an idea, and his goal could be regarded as achieved. Although Wakanda's technology tree is very crooked, vibranium technology still makes them a vital part of the Marvel world, and Wakanda will often fight on the front line of Marvel in the face of various large-scale crises in the future. Therefore, the significance of Wakanda's opening of the country to the world is actually quite large, if they are willing to take out their own technology and share it with Iron Man, Mister Fantastic or something, they may be able to make up something against the sky.
Finally, Richard also emphasized that some xenobiotic beasts may transform into human forms and hide among humans to hunt.
That's no small thing. If this creature can really take on human form, it is not an ordinary trouble, then doesn't it mean that he can easily move between anyone and kill whomever he wants? At that time, even the safety of the royal family cannot be guaranteed, maybe they will all be gnawed to bones in their sleep overnight?
But Richard said it didn't matter, and he had a countermeasure to it. He told the old king of Aegis's method of monitoring the dark energy, and emphasized that they had to call in as many resources as possible to monitor the energy response around the clock. As soon as there is any small movement of the xenobiotic beast disguised as a human, the system will immediately alarm the police.
That's the most important thing.
With the country on surveillance throughout the territory, Dark Faust can't escape.
