Chapter 179: Leave? What if I say no!
"Nolan Locke, outside the current royal capital, there are many people who are dissatisfied with you, and they are protesting against your presence in Wakanda, hoping that I can expel you from the country."
T'Chaka said.
Nolan's face remained unchanged, and he said:
"I didn't expect that as the royal family of Wakanda, I had to be so popular with the people."
Hearing Nolan's words, anger appeared on T'Challa's face.
"It's not a royal problem, it's your request, which has exceeded the limit of what the people of Wakanda can accept!"
T'Challa was furious, but the old king T'Chaka was expressionless.
T'Challa was still an immature prince, but T'Challa was already immune to them.
T'Challa is right, but the most important issue now is to resolve the protests.
I think you'll be able to understand that even I, as the king, can't make a vibranium deal with Rock Tech in the face of strong public opposition. ”
T'Chaka said that it is not leaky.
Every step he takes is a test for Nolan, and at the same time, he is increasing his own bargaining chips.
As the king of Wakanda, he always had Wakanda's interests in mind.
As he said, he could not force himself against the people's minds.
Nolan could also fully understand T'Chaca's words.
This time he came to Wakanda, and he had already been prepared to be harassed.
Countless years of tradition are not so easy to break.
And vibranium has this value.
"The only way to solve the people's grievances is to let them really see the benefits of this, and in that case, maybe we can start some other trade first."
T'Chaca's body leaned forward a little.
"It looks like you're confident, but you have to know that no matter how confident you are, Wakanda's technology is unmatched by Rock Technology."
Nolan smiled and didn't retort.
Wakanda's tech tree is indeed powerful, and if he really wants to compare with Wakanda, then the price he pays will be great.
However, who said that if you want to conquer the people of Wakanda, the only way to conquer them is to conquer them with technology.
Although Wakanda is a country, they are still tribal and too backward.
There are many things in this world that can conquer Wakanda.
Seeing Nolan's confident expression, T'Chaka didn't refuse.
"In this case, let's give you a chance, if you can stabilize the mood of the people, I can officially start the vibranium trade with you on behalf of Wakanda, but even if you finish it, I hope you understand that vibranium is a special material, and the amount of vibranium will not be too much in the early days of the cooperation between Wakanda and Locke Technology."
In this second meeting, both Nolan and T'Chaka achieved their purpose.
It is not difficult to solve the problems of the population, so the next thing is just to wait.
In half a month at most, he will be able to get things done here.
Coming out of the palace, facing the dissatisfied faces of the people, Nolan and T'Challa were still talking and laughing.
However, it was obvious that T'Challa's expression did not look very good.
After all, what Nolan said before still offended him somewhat.
In this regard, Nolan can only sigh that T'Challa is still too young.
Just as Nolan had just parted ways with T'Challa and was about to head back to his lodgings.
Suddenly, a man rushed out.
The man was masked, with a dagger in his hand, and stabbed at Nolan.
But this person's speed is too slow when his various physical qualities are already extraordinary.
Nolan's eyes were slightly cold, and without the slightest merciality, he kicked at the assassin with a whip leg.
Peng!
There was an explosion, and the assassin flew upside down in an instant.
This scene directly startled the passers-by around.
Not only that, but the assassin didn't get up.
Before Nolan could do anything, a group of guards were already walking towards the place.
"Nolan Locke, what have you done!"
The leader was actually Wakanda's military minister, Wakabi.
Nolan Locke's face was not half smiling.
"Someone tried to assassinate me."
At this time, there were already guards walking towards the assassin and touching the assassin's snort, and the guard's face suddenly changed drastically.
"Dead!"
The guard's face was full of shock.
This is a living person, how can he be kicked to death.
Hearing this, Wakabi's face turned ugly.
"Damn it, get this outsider up!"
"You don't have the right to do that."
Nolan looked at Wakabi with his eyes.
Wakabi glared at Nolan and said angrily:
"This is Wakanda, since you dare to kill, then be ready to pay for your life!"
The current situation is quite obvious.
Nolan is not stupid.
It is clear that this assassin has a lot to do with Wakabi, and even if he can't figure it out, he sent it.
These old Wakanda guards won't let Noggin take vibranium with him easily.
But......
Nolan's eyes were also a little unkind.
He is not a soft persimmon, and what can be traded with Wakanda must not be a soft persimmon.
Nolan said coldly:
"If you want to arrest me and have your king come in person, I want to see what he has to say about the Minister of War's defense of the Assassins."
Just as the conflict between the two was about to erupt further, T'Challa came running.
"Wakabi, what are you doing!"
T'Challa's eyes were filled with anger.
He had just separated from Nolan Locke, and Nolan Locke was attacked, and this naked malice was not hidden at all.
Wakabi's face also changed slightly when he saw T'Challa.
"Prince, I was about to arrest Nolan Locke, who killed people in the street, and now, I suspect that he is a spy sent by the outside world."
How could T'Challa be swept over by him like this.
"Wakabi, get out of here! Immediately! ”
T'Chaca's angry shouts made Wakabi lower his head.
Today was a great opportunity, but alas, Nolan Locke was stronger than he thought.
T'Challa wanted to settle the matter, but Nolan didn't.
He looked at Wakabi, who had his head down, and said disdainfully:
"Next time, you should send a good assassin, maybe you can try it yourself."
Wakabi had just raised his head, ready to lash out at Nolan Locke.
T'Challa's voice had stopped him once more.
Now T'Challa can also see that it is definitely not only Wakabi who wants to find trouble, and Nolan Roke also does not want to let things pass.
But he couldn't let that happen.
As Wakabi was about to leave, he saw Nolan's mouth.
"Waste, next time, slaughter your ......"
There weren't many words, and even Nolan Locke's face didn't have any expression at all, but this time, the anger in Wakabi's heart was almost irrepressible.
He gave Nolan Locke a deep look, then waved his hand and turned away.
Nolan Locke is a dangerous man.
Perhaps, they will have to resort to the last resort.
As Wakabi left, T'C'halla looked apologetically at Nolan.
"I'm sorry, Wakabi was too impulsive."
A smile tugged at the corners of Nolan's mouth, as if he didn't mind the matter.
"It's okay, I can totally understand that."
Hearing Nolan's words, T'Challa breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"I will try to persuade the people, but in this matter even my father can not do anything.
Vibranium is the foundation of Wakanda, not only exposing the existence of Wakanda, the vibranium transaction has touched the bottom line of the entire country. ”
Perhaps because of the assassination, this time T'Challa explained in great detail, without the perfunctory feeling before.
"Of course, I've been prepared for this for a long time.
However, there is still a lot of work waiting for me in Rock Technology, so if I can't solve this problem in half a month, I may need to go back. ”
Hearing this, T'Challa felt a little regretful in his heart, but at the same time he was relieved.
In the matter of vibranium trading, even he is very entangled.
While Nolan's departure may deprive Wakanda of a chance to engage with the outside world, it can also slow down Wakanda's contact with the outside world, giving Wakanda more time to prepare.
But he didn't know that he and Nolan thought completely differently.
Now that he was in Wakanda, Nolan had no intention of leaving empty-handed.
If Wakanda is not willing to cooperate, he will have to consider some small means.
Ulysse Scrowe could steal vibranium back, and he didn't believe he couldn't take some as gifts, after all, he couldn't come for nothing.
And he felt that Wakabi would help him.
And that's exactly what happened.
The assassination failure made Wakabi angry, and T'Challa's attitude made the entire Council of Elders unhappy.
Their kings and princes, the attitude is already very obvious.
"We need more direct means!"
An elder spoke.
"But it may be important to provoke the king's displeasure." There are also elders who are still hesitating.
"Of course this will displease the king, but we have run out of time.
The king has no intention of driving Nolan Locke away, and if the vibranium trade is really launched, Wakanda will definitely fall into a place from which there will be no return! ”
As soon as these words came out, all the elders fell silent.
"That's right, we have to eliminate the threat, Wakabi, have the warriors of the Frontier tribes arrived?"
"It's already here, and those who come are the most elite warriors of the frontier tribes." Wakabi replied.
"We will mobilize our forces to ensure that the warriors of the frontier tribes enter Wang Cheng and stop the king at the same time, there is only one thing you have to do, and that is to make sure that this deal does not really happen."
】
Wakabi nodded silently.
On this day, the entire royal city of Wakanda was surging.
Two generations of black panthers sit in the royal palace.
"Our allies can't seem to wait." T'Chaka sighed.
T'Challa said:
"Maybe that's a good thing, but the people aren't ready yet."
T'Chaka had a helpless look on his face.
"T'Challa, as the successor of the Black Panther, you must always understand that being a king requires knowing how to weigh up."
He glanced outside, today's palace, for some reason it was extremely deserted.
But he didn't pay much attention to it, and continued:
"It's not about doing nothing, at least in this case, we're never going to be fully prepared, and in my opinion, that's the best opportunity."
T'Challa's words made T'Challa fall into deep thought.
"It's so quiet."
As T'Challa pondered, T'Challa suddenly spoke, causing T'Challa to be stunned for a moment.
"Today's palace is too quiet."
T'Chaka added.
T'Challa also realized that something was wrong.
There were a lot of people in the palace, but now, it seemed that there were only father and son.
This strange situation made him feel a little uneasy.
Thinking of this, T'Challa strode outside.
"Prince."
Several guards saluted.
"Prepare, I'm going to the royal city."
There were no guard actions.
"Where's Okoye?"
T'Challa frowned, and asked again.
This is the royal palace, and the female guards who usually guard the door should be right.
The existence of the female guard is not just a simple guard, according to the ancient tradition, some of them may also become princesses, so the female guard is the absolute cronies of the king.
At this moment, several elders came over.
"Prince, there is some chaos in the royal city today, the prince should go out tomorrow."
"What do you mean!"
T'Challa looked at the elder who spoke.
Not only T'Challa, but T'Challa also walked out, glaring at the elders in front of him.
"What do you want to do, where is Wakabi!"
T'Chaka scolded, and a guess came to him, what would happen if Nolan Locke died in Wakanda?
T'Chaka was a little uneasy.
T'Challa reacted.
They wanted to kill Nolan Locke.
If Nolan Locke dies in Wakanda, they'll be in big trouble.
No one thought Nolan Locke would survive.
This is Wakanda, and Wakanda's weapons are the strongest.
Even if Wakanda is working on its own and with the whole world, they are absolutely confident that they can win.
I don't think they really want to do that.
Nolan Locke has a close relationship with many people in the Avengers.
And Locke Technology itself is a huge capital, even if Nolan Locke is dead, Locke Technology still exists, and may fight against them.
Nolan Locke has entered Wakanda, which means that Locke Technology already has a place in Wakanda.
T'Challa snapped:
"Nolan Locke's identity is different, let Wakabi stop immediately, you will get into trouble!"
Several elders glanced at each other, and all of them had smiles in the corners of their eyes.
"I'm sorry, Prince, it's late, the warriors of the frontier tribes, they should have already done it."
As they spoke, an entire street in the royal city was deserted.
Just now, Nolan sensed that something was wrong.
But instead of stopping them, he let them do it.
Suddenly, a group of warriors wearing cloaks and armed with spears appeared from all corners of the street.
"Defensive mode!"
A violent shout rang out.
All the warriors grabbed the cloak behind them at the same time, holding it in front of them.
The energy shield suddenly appeared.
Nolan, on the other hand, was surrounded in the center of everyone.
Wakabi walked in from behind.
"Nolan Locke, now you have one last chance to choose from, get out of here and forget everything about it."
Seeing the Wakabi who came out, and the warriors who gathered more and more, Nolan's face was fearless.
"What if I say no?"
There was a cold glint in Wakabi's eyes.
"If you don't want to leave, you'll have to stay here forever!"
