5. Black Panther

"Hmph, hum, hum~"

The Utopia Queen's special car was safely parked under the parliament building in Utopia City, and Catherine, who was wearing a floral long dress, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses, held a blue handbag, hummed a relaxed tune, and walked into the parliament building with light steps under the escort of the guards.

Everyone along the way bowed slightly to her, and Catherine greeted everyone with a smile, a happy gesture that was completely different from the cold and gloomy posture of the past, and even enlivened the atmosphere of the entire council hall.

And anyone with sharp eyes can see that on the Queen's shoulders, in addition to the mini black dragon they have become accustomed to always napping, there is a new little guy.

A miniature little tree man, he sat on Catherine's shoulder, curiously looking around him, and from time to time he took a piece of candy from the pocket he was holding and stuffed it into his mouth.

Looks like our queen has a new weird pet.

And Queen Catherine did not go directly to her office, but instead went straight to the office of Professor Charles, oh no, Mr. Speaker Charles.

"Oh, it's little Catherine. ”

Speaker Charles, who was reading a book with his glasses, raised his head, pushed his glasses down, smiled at Catherine, and picked up the hot tea on the table, but as soon as he took a sip, he saw Groot, a small tree that had jumped onto the table, and the latter was looking at him with a curious light.

The professor's gaze narrowed sharply.

As a big man with a mind gem, he easily felt the terrible life energy contained in Groot's body, he raised his head and looked at Catherine, the queen was like a satisfied kitten, winked mischievously at the professor, and whispered:

"He's back!"

"Huh?"

The expression on the professor's face became unconcealable with joy, and his gaze fell on Groot again: "This, he sent it back?"

"Hmm!"

Catherine sat on the chair, tore open the space casually, took out a bottle of warm milk, handed it to Groot, and carefully inserted a straw for him, and the little black dragon lying on the other side looked at all this with a depressed face, and the crisis of falling out of favor was surging wildly in the heart of this tired little guy, especially when Groot proudly showed off the milk in his hand to it, the little black dragon hated it so much that he could only cover his head with his wings, out of sight, and not upset.

"He's hiding his whereabouts, and he's going to deal with those guys secretly!"

Catherine twitched her delicate nose and pointed to the sky, then stretched out her finger again, tapped it on Groot's head, and said to the professor:

"He asked me to put Groot in the New World, this little guy is the chosen monarch of plants, with it, the ecological environment of Utopia will be stable, and those evil gods will not want to invade us, and as long as Groot's power continues to increase, he will sooner or later control the ecology of the entire world, and then become the guardian of Utopia... Our eternal allies!"

"Good!"

The professor couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, he stretched out his hand and gently touched Groot's head, the significance of this little guy's appearance at this time is too important, the reason why various forces dare not develop the new world with great fanfare is because the environment after the new world is reshaped is not stable, no one knows which building has a problem, it may cause a terrible chain reaction, and now, the appearance of Groot, will completely make up for this problem.

"It seems that Cyber's trip this time is still very fruitful, which is very good. ”

The professor nodded, and he looked at Catherine again:

"And where has he been now?"

"He's gone to Wakanda. ”

Catherine put the little black dragon on her shoulder and said to the professor: "As for the soul gem, it seems that he is determined to get it, I have to go and fight with those politicians, professor, Groot will entrust you to take care of it, by the way, there may be a raccoon coming over in a while, it is a friend and guardian of the tree man." ”

"Raccoon?"

The professor pushed his glasses, a little confused, but nodded anyway.

On the other side, in the vast land of Africa, the faint blue light flashed away, and Cyber's figure stepped on the land of Africa, beside him, a red shadow floated around, and finally became an elegant female ninja in red beside Cyber, Erica, one of Cyber's confidantes, and also the follower who followed the Supreme Mage to Africa to find the soul gem.

"To be honest, I'm actually quite curious. ”

Cyber looked left and right at his surroundings, and he whispered, "Why did the Ancient One already feel the location of the Soul Gem at that time, but let it stay here?"

Two gentle arms wrapped around Cyber's waist from behind, and Erica leaned her body close behind Cyber and whispered in his ear:

"Aside from the Supreme Mage's soft-heartedness and her lack of approval, it was the constant obstruction of the nasty nature god. ”

Erica couldn't help but sniffle and said with a look of disgust:

"That black panther seems to be the natural spirit that shelters Wakanda, the Supreme Mage tried to capture it, but it was unsuccessful, and then I heard her say that the black panther is probably related to the soul gem, and the soul gem is also inseparable from the country of Wakanda, in short, it is very complicated, once the soul gem is taken, Wakanda will no longer exist..."

Her body wriggled in front of Cyber and was held in his arms, and the Assassin said with a lazy expression:

"You say, this kind of thing, how should that very benevolent Supreme Mage make up his mind?"

"Alas, she always does, and luckily, I'm not her..."

Cyber shook his head and kissed Erica's forehead gently, "Let's go, take me there, let me see how rampant that nature spirit is!"

On the other side, in a dark cave near the upper reaches of the Mother River in Wakanda, the Coalition infiltrators were trapped here, but they were in no hurry to leave, because they found an important person here.

"Wanda, do you need a break?"

Agent Coulson moved his finger as he looked at the Scarlet Witch beside him, who was constantly using chaos magic to replenish the life force of the young black man lying in the ice cave, and said:

"Let me take your place, you haven't rested for 1 day. ”

"I can hold on, Mr. Coulson. ”

Wanda turned her head and smiled at Coulson: "This level of load is nothing, now His Royal Highness the Prince's vitality is quite weak, and he can't withstand the bursting magic energy." ”

Coulson nodded, sat back down on his stone bench, and began to give Captain Steve his hand to roast the fresh antelope that had been thrown down.

"Well, Captain, what do you mean by that big black cat?"

The little spider sniffed the aroma of barbecue, rubbed his belly, rubbed against these seniors, and asked in a low voice, "It didn't hurt us, so it trapped us in this cave, what is the origin of this prince? Does the black cat want us to save him?"

"I don't know. ”

Captain America told the truth, first sprinkled some salt on the roasted meat, and gave it to his companions, and then said slowly: "Anyway, I can feel that the panther has no malicious intent, I guess it really wants us to save this person, Coulson, did you say that he was the prince before, the prince of Wakanda? Why haven't I seen him before?"

Coulson bit down a piece of meat and, as he ate, said:

"Prince T'Challa, the only son of the current King T'Chaca, was fascinated by his whereabouts when he was a teenager, but according to the records of S.H.I.E.L.D., he has studied in prestigious universities around the world, with excellent grades, and has seen the scenery and humanities of the world, with 5 master's degrees and 2 doctorates, and attended a regular meeting of the United Nations 4 years ago. Only once. ”

The agent's eyes deepened:

"Few people know about the existence of T'Challa, but if nothing else, he could succeed to the throne in a maximum of 5 years... Become the new king of Wakanda, but now he appears in this isolated cave with only half a life left, it must not be because of some trial, so, captain, your guess is correct, it seems that something happened in Wakanda. ”

"As for the panther..."

Coulson frowned: "According to the few words about Wakanda that have been circulated outside, it is likely that it is the primordial god that guided the four major tribes of Wakanda to unite and form the Kingdom of Wakanda thousands of years ago, in magical terms, the spirit of nature, and the kings of Wakanda have been called Black Panthers, and it seems that they are inseparable from this big cat, as for why it wants us to save Prince T'Challa..."

At this moment, the agent's gaze turned to the prince who had been revived by chaos magic:

"It seems that our Prince T'Challa has been given the authority of the Panther by the spirit of nature, and he has been recognized. ”

Agent Barton, who had been silent, heard this, he suddenly stopped eating, he raised his head, his eyes shone with some kind of light, the eyes of several people collided in the air, and finally the captain shook his head:

"No, there is no point in killing a T'Challa who is not yet a king, everyone, don't forget why we are here, after all, this war is not about destroying Wakanda, and if we kill him here, it will probably anger the spirit of nature, and we will be in a worse situation. ”

"Actually, as long as you do it secretively, that big cat maybe..."

Natasha whispered, but before she could finish speaking, from outside the cave, there was an earth-shattering roar, followed by the sound of the rock peeling, and the sound of falling, and a thunderous sound, and it was close to a feline roar, like the panic after being injured, and finally, the heavy object fell to the ground, splashing thousands of water.

In the moment of the sound, Captain America picked up the shield in his hand and rushed out, followed by the others, but when they rushed to the entrance of the cave, they saw that the spirit of nature, who had been oppressed by the crowd with only momentum, had to retreat, and fell from the sky into the dark river below in a free-fall posture, its huge body smashed into the dark river, let out a painful wail, and the body blocked the river.

The dark blue flames swirled around the wound in its abdomen, causing the non-flesh body to emit a burst of scorched stench, and the next moment, a figure tore through the space and walked out, holding a dark blue scythe and wearing a black hood, the moment he appeared, the little spider let out a scream of surprise and rushed towards the man.

"Ah, Cyber... I knew you weren't going to die that easily!"

"Hey, hey, don't be so enthusiastic, kid..."

The bearded Cyber looked a little vicissitudes, and he took a step back to the enthusiasm of the little spider, nodded to the other people standing in place, and finally refocused his gaze on the natural demigod who was struggling to get up.

"Tell me, where is the soul gem? Black Panther..."

The look in Cyber's eyes became colder and colder: "Don't force me to pull out your soul and take a look, it will... It's painful!"

The badly wounded panther had a taste of unyielding, and it moved its hind legs with difficulty, opening its mouth towards Cyber, revealing its sharp, dark teeth, and the rather verve eyes exuded a wildness and a will to resist, this gesture made Cyber shake his head, and the scythe in his hand waved, and the next moment it was about to completely crush this stubborn spirit of nature.

And at this moment, Coulson suddenly spoke:

"Wait... Cyber, there's something in there, I think you'll have to take a look, maybe... We and this cheetah are not without common goals..."
