578, Tony's visitor
Three days passed.
Tony still couldn't think of a good solution to the resource problem.
Wakanda's vibranium is undoubtedly the best choice for building a space warship, and there is no other substance on Earth other than vibranium that can meet all of Tony's needs.
But Wakanda's attitude is very resolute, they will never share vibranium and their own technology, which makes Tony Stark unable to think of a good solution, not only him, but also Ultron.
Tony goes to Brooklyn every night to find Goofy, with whom he tries to figure out what to do.
But Goofy's only thought of was to negotiate with the king of Wakanda himself, and perhaps his eloquence would persuade him to change his strategy.
Although Goofy knows that this is not very likely - the current king of Wakanda is still the same Tcchaka who is a bit stubborn and firmly believes that closing the country is the best policy.
If the king had become his son, the younger and more daring T'Challa, perhaps things would have been better.
But the real result has to be tried.
After another discussion, a tired Tony Stark leaves Goofy's residence and heads back to Manhattan.
Halfway through, Tony's current girlfriend, Pepper Potts, calls and says that someone wants to talk to him about vibranium.
"Is it Crow? Ulysses Crowe? Tony asked subconsciously.
After all, there is currently only Crowe, a black businessman, who is selling vibranium in the world, plus the two have traded before, Crowe has his contact information, and Wakanda himself will definitely not sell vibranium, so as soon as he heard that someone was talking to him about vibranium, Tony subconsciously thought of Crowe.
"Crow?" Pepper also knew the notorious black businessman, and she knew that the guy was a hideous-looking white man.
"No, it's not Crow, the person looking for you is a black man, and looks young, about thirty? Maybe not even thirty years old......" Pepper said.
"Negroes?" Tony's eyes narrowed, "It can't be from Wakanda, right?" ”
"It's not good for me to ask directly, and the other party didn't disclose it." "He's in your office, but it's getting late, do you want to see him?" Or are you going to see him again tomorrow? ”
"See him now." Tony decided, "If he can really help me get vibranium, then the sooner I see him, the better." ”
"I see." Pepper said, "I'll get back to him right now." ”
……
Half an hour later.
Tony Stark meets the mysterious visitor in his office.
After all, the other party came up and made it clear that he could help Tony Stark get vibranium, and he could be said to be really coming to Tony's needs.
This is a very strong black youth, and his muscles are even comparable to Steve Rogers before Fortune.
But what caught Tony's attention the most were his eyes, his eyes were hollow, as if they were defiant of everything, and as if they were staring from death.
"You said you could get me a lot of vibranium?" Tony asked in a calm tone, "Attention, I'm talking about 'a lot', you probably don't know how much viranium I need, right?" ”
"How much do you need to build a space battleship?" The black young man opened his mouth in a calm tone, "Build a space warship of similar size like the one you hide in the Earth's orbit?" ”
Hearing this, Tony Stark's expression changed imperceptibly, and he deliberately turned his face in other directions to hide his surprise, while saying in a still calm tone: "Oh, it looks like you know a lot, what else do you know?" ”
"I also know that the vibranium you need is in Wakanda, but their king doesn't intend to give it to you." Black Youth Road.
"You're from Wakanda?" Tony couldn't help asking.
Because in his opinion, he knows so much about this matter, unless he is a native of Wakanda, after all, Wakanda's protection of intelligence is very effective, otherwise it is impossible for this country to be "invisible" in the world for so long.
But the black youth shook his head.
"No, I'm from Oakland, California, and my name is Eric."
"Really?" Tony Stark was a little incredulous, "Then how do you know about Wakanda?" ”
"I have my own sources of intelligence, and it's clear that my sources are both reliable and timely." Eric smiled and said, "Mr. Stark, do you mind if I tell me what I think of Wakanda?" ”
"Of course I don't mind." Tony said, "Please." ”
"Wakanda is a short-sighted, self-serving country that cares about its own interests and neglects its own responsibilities......"
Eric said in a deep voice,
"Since they have occupied the unique vibranium resources on the earth, and developed the highest civilization in human society based on the vibranium resources, they should shoulder their responsibilities to defend all mankind and guide all human ......"
"Now your plan is to build a space team to protect the Earth, your purpose is to protect all mankind, and on this premise, Wakanda should share their technology and resources, and should live up to the benefits they have received from Earth and vibranium......
"But Wakanda still chooses to be alone, only enjoying the benefits he gets from vibranium resources, but is unwilling to bear the corresponding responsibility, such a country is simply a moth to the earth!"
Eric's remarks are incisive and in line with Tony Stark's.
"You're right!" Tony was about to give Eric a round of applause and nodded, "That's the problem with Wakanda, that's the biggest difficulty right now......"
"It's intolerable that the resources that can protect the planet are buried beneath their country, but they are unwilling to hand them over and just want to keep them for themselves!"
Seeing that Tony's thoughts had been figured out to him, Eric's eyes flashed with relief.
He is glad that he has found the right partner.
"Mr. Stark, you didn't disappoint me, you're a sensible man." Eric said seriously.
Tony smiled wryly, "But what's the use of understanding things?" I can't go to war against Wakanda because of this – the plundering of resources is still an evil thing after all, at least internationally. Other countries will say that we are using the pretext of protecting the planet and that we are just trying to plunder the vibranium resources of Wakanda. ”
"I'm here to solve this problem." Eric said with a smile.
Once Tony has the same idea as him, it's time to get down to business.
"Oh?" Tony looked at Eric curiously and asked, "How are you going to solve it?" ”
At this time, Eric stood up from the chair opposite Tony and said with a serious expression, "Now let me introduce myself again......"
"My real name is not Eric, my name is Njadaka, my father's name is Njob, he is the younger brother of the current king of Wakanda, T'Chaka."
After saying that, Eric tugged at his lower lip, only to see that his lower lip had a strange pink arc.
Tony Stark was taken aback by his peculiar trait.
Eric immediately explained: "This is a characteristic unique to the people of Wakanda, which can be used to verify the identity of the Wakandans, and it is also the way I use it to prove that I am not lying to you......"
"I am a member of the Wakanda royal family, and if the current Wakanda king, T'Chaka, unfortunately dies, then I have the right to inherit."
