787 King Panther
After layers of interceptions, the landing craft of the Eternal Fleet were not completely wiped out, but nearly a third of the fish that slipped through the net landed on the African savannah.
One-third of the fish that slipped through the net were more than 100 triangular prismatic landing craft. After a breakthrough into the atmosphere, the speed began to slow down, and then stopped in the air a few tens of meters above the ground, hovering there.
But it didn't last long. All the landing craft seemed to have received a unified command, and without spotting the engine jets, they were directly suspended in the air, flying in the same direction.
On the map, the meeting point of the flight direction of so many landing craft is where Wakanda is located.
Wakanda is on Earth, in a strange state. The general public has never heard of the name Wakanda, and even if some know that it is a member of the United Nations, they only know that it is a country in the heart of the African savannah, isolated from the rest of the world, full of primitive and backward places.
However, in the eyes of insiders, this primitive tribal country hidden in the depths of the African savannah is a very mysterious place. Wakanda is rich in vibranium, which is not only ridiculously expensive, but it is also something that you can't buy if you have money, and it depends on whether the Wakandans are willing to sell it to you.
When Lei Rui was notified to return to the control center on Paradise Island with Diana, the situation was already obvious. Although Thanos has still not been found, the convergence momentum of these triangular prism landing craft has basically been completed, and it is now close to completing the semi-encirclement of Wakanda.
Natasha is communicating with someone, and it is none other than T'Challa, the current king of Wakanda, who appears on the light curtain.
T'Challa is a Black Panther, a super-soldier in his own right, with a high-tech suit made of vibranium, although not as good as Tony. Stark's Mark series of steel armor, but the protection is absolutely superior.
T'Challa, the panther on the projection screen, sat upright on his throne with a solemn face. Beside him was the captain of his guard, Okoye.
Regardless of Natasha's words, the king of Wakanda pursed his thick lips and said nothing.
"Your Majesty! This is a big deal for Wakanda and humanity on Earth, and you can't turn us away! Natasha was already in a hurry. Despite all her might, she was unable to convince the stubborn T'Challa to agree to let the super soldier go to war.
T'Challa didn't blink his eyes, and said coldly, "Natasha, pay attention to your identity!" ”
Natasha's eyes shrank, she took a deep breath, calmed down the turmoil in her heart, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, the captain has rushed back......"
"Natasha!" T'Challa interrupted Natasha's words arrogantly and rudely, and said with displeasure, "The captain I respect is dead. ”
T'Challa was talking about Captain Rodgers. During the Mutant Crisis, Captain Rogers fell for a trick and was attacked by the mutants and died. Because of this incident, after T'Challa returned to Wakanda to take power, he has been angry with Lei Rui and others, and refused to allow anyone from the Guardians of the Galaxy to enter Wakanda.
King T'Challa the Black Panther's restrictions don't stop there, they also restrict the supply of vibranium to the Guardians of the Galaxy. Lei Rui's later focus began to shift to the universe, from Asgard to the Barren Lands, and when he obtained a lot of resources and high-tech materials, he completely ignored this isolated and mysterious country.
But when it comes to this, Natasha can't go on. Lei Rui said directly: "Your Majesty King T'Challa, Natasha has sent you the necessary information, and what you have to face is not an ordinary existence, but a powerful Eternal Clan. I know you have a grudge and prejudice against me and the entire Guardians of the Galaxy because of Captain Rogers' death. But now is not the time to settle these old bad debts, but to unite sincerely and face a powerful enemy together. ”
King T'Challa's face was still tense, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly when Lei Rui said the word "Sincere Unity", and a slight cold snort came out of his nostrils, looking a little disapproving.
"Captain!" King T'Challa said in a deep voice, "We will know how to do Wakanda's affairs ourselves, and we don't need outsiders to dictate this. I'm busy, so don't waste my time if there's nothing else to do. ”
Lei Rui smiled and replied, "Since you say so, of course I have nothing to say." Good luck to you and Wakanda! Your Majesty! ”
As soon as the words fell, before King T'Challa could interrupt the communication, Lei Rui said to Natasha: "Natasha, immediately mobilize all military forces, take Wakanda as the center, and divide the war zone. Diana and I rushed over first to find a suitable place to set up a forward base. ”
Before Lei Rui's words fell, King T'Challa directly cut off the communication, leaving only a blank space on the light curtain.
Natasha looked at Lei Rui, who was about to leave, and shouted, "Captain! Wakanda......"
Lei Rui stopped and turned around, and replied a little helplessly: "T'Challa is too stubborn and paranoid, stuck in a place like Wakanda, he doesn't know the outside world at all, and he looks down on the outside world. In that case, it is up to them to taste the bitterness. ”
"But the people of Wakanda ......," Natasha continued.
"That's T'Challa's responsibility." Lei Rui replied, "We can't take everyone's responsibility on our shoulders, first, there is no such possibility, and secondly, it is thankless, but good intentions become bad things." ”
Lei Rui and Diana pass through the space portal and return to the African savannah again. Now that the goal is clear, but King T'Challa does not agree with the Guardians of the Galaxy entering Wakanda, they can only appear in the vicinity, and then fly to the vicinity of Wakanda, find a suitable place, and set up a forward base.
By the time Lei Rui and Diana arrived there, Thanos' attack must have begun.
The control center of Paradise Island, Tony. Stark walked up to Natasha, patted her on the shoulder, and comforted, "That T'Challa guy is narrow-minded, narrow-minded, and so arrogant and narcissistic. Since it was his decision, we shouldn't be confident that we would force him to accept our proposal, right? Let him go! That was his kingdom. ”
Natasha was still a little unbearable. From her point of view, she could already see very clearly that even if Thanos' eternal fleet had been destroyed and only such a few remnants remained, it was still quite possible to level Wakanda.
In this way, T'Challa's refusal to allow the Guardians of the Galaxy to intervene is completely putting Wakanda and the people in danger.
This feeling of watching but not being able to save it is like thousands of little mice gnawing at her heart, making her whole body weak.
She could only take a deep breath to calm herself down and begin to deploy resources to prepare for the next big battle.
That's when Tony. Stark said, "Oh, Thanos' attack has begun!" ”
