Salomon thought for a moment and decided not to take Stark to Wakanda. He just left one of the world's smartest men a small piece of the vibranium he had obtained from T'Challa, and then he pocketed the little black milk cat. He opened the portal under the guidance of the planetary defense system and directly arrived in the high-tech city of Wakanda.
His appearance attracted the attention of the Wakanda Guards and local residents, so the portal opened by Salomon was located in Wakanda's residential market. When soldiers armed with vibranium spears surrounded him, Salomon did not react excessively. He just opened his palm and showed them the black kitten curled up in his hand.
The kitten seemed so shocked by the sight that it forgot to retract its tongue.
"I have a negotiation with your royal family." He spoke to the guards surrounding him. "This is my token."
He is showing his strength to the royal family of Wakanda. Since this is a negotiation, Salomon must reflect his own value. Only with equal status can there be room for negotiation.
"My friend! You never told me that you have such powerful skills."
In Birnin Zana, the capital of Wakanda, T'Challa saw Salomon surrounded by guards. He immediately gave Salomon a passionate hug. "I have to say, you almost scared the commander of HatutZeraze, Derek Kanata, to death. Your sudden appearance made him patrol the border like a crazy cat. He thought that you appeared in the market. Emoji: There’s a hole in Wakanda’s border.”
T'Challa smiled and said, "I quite like watching him busy around. Hatut Zeraze is a loyal army, and the secret police are always annoying, but they are a little too loyal to the point of being annoying. Come on, My friend, I am taking you to meet the King of Wakanda, my father T'Chaka. He is a great king and he is very happy for your arrival."
Salomon didn't expect T'Challa's understanding of him to be so shallow. "Dear prince, that is not high technology, but magic." Salomon said, "I thought you would accept it quickly. After all, there are still gods in your country. Isn't there Wakanda? Granted occult knowledge of magic?"
"This is a scientific place, Salomon. There is no magic in Wakanda." T'Challa seemed to want to introduce Wakanda to Salomon. "In fact, Wakanda is the most technologically advanced place on Earth. All Wakanda citizens must receive free eleven years of compulsory education, and then they can choose whether to attend Wakanda's universities. All citizens can freely Choose your duty. Due to the national policy from ancient times to the present, the residents of Wakanda cannot receive education from the outside world." T'Challa said, "I am an exception. If it were not so, I would not find you. My father opposed all opinions. There are many reasons for me to receive outside education, one of which is to find you."
"Even with a strong religious atmosphere, high technology has entered the lives of all Wakanda citizens. Do you see this?" T'Challa pointed to a string of dark black beads on his wrist, "This is Kimoyo, all Wakanda citizens are given this thing at birth. Different beads have different functions. The first one to be installed is Prime, a device that can regularly detect personal health conditions. In addition, there are also devices that can provide Beads for holographic information display and communication.”
"The Stark Group's interactive holographic projection device is very heavy." Salomon said, "Is this the technology Wakanda developed with the help of vibranium?"
"Since you know vibranium, you should know that vibranium was also one of Wakanda's former currencies." T'Challa led Salomon through the corridors of the Wakanda Palace. The decoration of the Wakanda Palace is very African and Egyptian with red and blue striped patterns. At the same time, it also embodies high-tech minimalist style everywhere. Looking down from the floor-to-ceiling windows in the corridor, you can see the residents' market in the distance. Two huge black panther statues stand in front of the main entrance of the palace.
"It's just that vibranium currency has now been replaced by digital currency, because always using vibranium currency will lead to the outflow of this important resource." T'Challa obviously did not realize the reason why Salomon opened the portal, he continued He was doing something that seemed ordinary to him, but a strong sense of pride still emerged.
"Wakanda's resources are more than vibranium. We have coal, uranium, and diamonds, and we can independently conduct aviation manufacturing. So you can probably understand why Wakanda practices isolationism. We don't need to communicate with the outside world. Not just because of vibranium, but more because we don’t need it.”
"We need it. The world is changing very fast now. If Wakanda is closed any longer, it will fall into the trap of ignorance." An old man with glasses and white beard and hair stopped T'Challa. He held his son's shoulders and smiled at the mystic, "Welcome, Salomon. I'm sorry that I couldn't find you when you were born."
"You don't have to apologize for this, sir." Salomon bowed slightly to King T'Chaka of Wakanda. "My teacher and adoptive mother gave me an excellent life, and I became a magician because of it. I feel There’s nothing to complain about, on the contrary, I’m very satisfied.”
"That's good. If you don't mind, you can ask T'Challa to take you to see Wakanda's research facilities. In the evening, Wakanda will hold a welcome banquet." Speaking of which, Wakanda The king patted his son's arm again, "Take our guests to see Wakanda's technology, and we'll see you at the dinner."
"I will, Father." T'Chaka kissed his father on the cheek. After bidding farewell to the King of Wakanda, T'Challa grabbed Salomon's arm. "Come on," he said, "I have someone to introduce to you. My sister Shuri, she is the smartest person and the most powerful scientist in Wakanda. She will definitely be interested in your magic. Don't be shy, I don't want her to stay in the laboratory every day."
"I'm so surprised, you don't have the fuss about magic that outsiders do." Salomon said with a smile. Vibranium is his main purpose. Some people may not be able to react. The so-called vibranium alloy, Adamantium alloy, is a metal that can be used to make weapons and equipment. Although this metal does not have as many uses as vibranium, Adamantium also means " Fine gold”.
If Stark's decomposition force field research is completed, then the metal that can best carry that kind of force is vibranium and its series of alloys. There are approximately 10,000 tons of vibranium reserves in Wakanda's sacred mountains. This information was learned by Salomon through the sixth-level spell.
Wakanda's technology cannot be separated from vibranium, and their technology is not compatible with other current human technologies.
From the words of King T'Chaka of Wakanda just now, Salomon also understood King T'Chaka's thoughts on opening up Wakanda. As a result, 10,000 tons of vibranium is slightly insufficient when facing the world's demand. Although T'Challa said that his sister Shuri is currently trying to synthesize vibranium atoms, the cost is too high. Far more than the value of vibranium itself.
Salomon was very grateful to T'Challa for the information he revealed. The prince probably didn't expect what Salomon was thinking.
As it happens, Salomon knows where there is vibranium, and he will use this information as a bargaining chip to trade with Wakanda in exchange for strong industrial support.
