The mechanical craze in Marvel

However, this has little to do with him.

After glancing at Nolan, the captain of the guard walked over to T'Challa.

“Okoye, how is my father’s health?”

"The King is in good health, but you haven't been back for a long time, and I think he must miss you very much."

Upon hearing this, T'Challa nodded, "As long as you're healthy."

As for why I haven't been back for so long, there's nothing I can do about it.

The United States is far away from here, and he also has his own things to do, so it won't be easy for him to come back.

Nolan soon discovered the unique aspects of Wakanda.

As an advanced nation, most civilians in Wakanda lead ordinary lives.

It's impossible to tell that this country is any different from other African countries.

But that feeling vanished instantly once they entered the capital of Wakanda.

"This place is practically a futuristic world."

Nolan made a heartfelt remark.

"Thanks for the compliment."

T'Challa responded with a hint of arrogance.

"This is the heart of Wakanda, and as you know, Wakanda possesses technology far surpassing that of other countries."

Nolan glanced at T'Challa, neither confirming nor denying his words.

The capital of Wakanda is indeed very advanced.

But the common people outside the capital city did not benefit much.

According to Nolan's understanding, a country's strength should be comprehensive.

A powerful capital city can bring no benefit to the common people.

This is simply an unavoidable problem that Wakanda has faced due to its long period of isolation from the outside world.

Perhaps T'Chaka noticed this situation, which is why he sent T'Challa away from Wakanda to study abroad, hoping to gradually change this unhealthy situation.

However, Nolan remained very curious throughout the journey.

Throughout the royal city, one can see those amazing vibranium technologies.

Although he only glanced at it briefly, Nolan was already certain that vibranium technology was fundamentally different from technology in other parts of the world, and had almost developed into two completely different lines.

Before long, the two arrived at their destination.

"The king is inside."

After saying a few words, Okoye went inside first.

Nolan also went in, following the local custom.

Okoye and T'Challa both bowed to the king, but Nolan did nothing.

Seeing this, Okoye's face showed dissatisfaction.

"Outsider, upon meeting the King, you should observe the proper etiquette!"

Nolan ignored her.

He has never bowed to anyone in his entire life.

Tchaka waved his hand.

“Okoye, Mr. Locke is not one of us in Wakanda, so he doesn’t need to abide by these rules.”

With that, Tchaka stepped down from the throne.

Although he is not young, he walks with a vigorous stride, showing that he is physically strong.

“Mr. Locke, I am aware of your request; you want to trade vibranium.”

As soon as Tchaka spoke, the entire hall fell silent.

Vibranium is Wakanda's top secret.

Although their prince and even some of their people left Wakanda for the outside world.

But vibranium is a bottom line they will never allow to be crossed.

"Your Majesty, Wakanda absolutely cannot agree to this!"

Wakanda's defense commander, Wakabi, stepped forward and glared at Nolan.

His eyes held undisguised malice.

If he had known Nolan Locke's purpose earlier, he would never have let him walk into the Wakanda palace alive.

Nolan's expression remained calm.

T'Chaka spoke too quickly; judging from his manner, he clearly hadn't consulted with the people of Wakanda at all.

Although T'Chaka is the king of Wakanda, there is also a council of elders in Wakanda that acts as a check on the king.

This is acting first and informing later.

Did Tchaka make a stupid mistake?

Nolan glanced at Tchaka, whose expression remained unchanged, and mentally rejected the answer.

He did it on purpose.

Tchaka wanted to use himself to open up communication between Wakanda and the outside world.

At the same time, this is probably also a test for Tchaka.

Nolan could almost see a message in T'Chaka's eyes: You want vibranium? Let me see if you have the ability to cooperate with Wakanda.

T'Challa, standing to the side, looked at Wakabi and said:

“Wakabi, Wakanda needs to communicate with the outside world, and Mr. Locke is a good bridge.”

Vibranium is precious, but its existence will eventually be known. Completely controlling its outflow is impossible; everything we need is under Wakanda's control.

But clearly, Wakabi had no intention of heeding T'Challa's advice.

He didn't even give Nolan a chance to speak, turning away with a livid face, showing no respect whatsoever to T'Chaka, the King of Wakanda.

Tchaka frowned and said:

"I'm sorry, vibranium is too important to Wakanda, and it would be very difficult to initiate a vibranium trade."

Tchaka's meaning is very simple.

See, when it comes to vibranium, the people of Wakanda don't even give me, their king, any face. They want to cooperate? Just talking isn't enough.

Nolan could only sigh helplessly.

That's why he really hates communicating with these old foxes.

Nick Fury is an old fox, and he's already out of power. The Ancient One is an old fox, and he still can't beat her. T'Chaka is also an old fox. Nolan has an urge to summon Netero right now.

“Your Majesty, vibranium is the premise of our deal. To be honest, Wakanda holds no appeal for me other than vibranium.”

"Oh?"

Tchaka's expression turned cold.

Nolan's words made him feel uncomfortable.

As Wakandas, their arrogance towards the outside world is arguably innate.

“Mr. Locke, I’m afraid you don’t know enough about Wakanda. Wakanda’s technology is far more advanced than that of the outside world.”

Nolan chuckled and said:

"Of course, I have never denied that, but Locke Technology's technology is also far ahead of the world's."

The implication is simple: he really doesn't care about these technologies.

T'Challa, standing to the side, sensed the tension between the two and stepped forward to say:

“Father, Mr. Locke is right. Locke Technology’s technological level is extremely famous throughout the world, especially its robotics technology, which has far surpassed Wakanda’s level.”

Tchaka was somewhat surprised to hear Tchala's words.

He nodded slightly, thus putting the matter aside.

However, he didn't pay much attention to what T'Challa said.

It's not an exaggeration to say that robotics technology surpasses that of Wakanda.

Wakanda has never cared about this.

Even Wakanda views robotics as a flawed branch of technology, where the technology it requires and the technology it produces are disproportionate.

While Nolan was talking to the King of Wakanda, Wakabi stormed home and immediately reported the incident to the Council of Elders.

He respected the king, but vibranium must never be allowed to leave the country.

The elders were also shocked when they learned that the king was going to trade vibranium with outsiders.

"The king is foolish. Vibranium is the foundation of Wakanda. If it leaks out, it will not only attract the covetous eyes of other Wakandas, but it may also lead to the leakage of our technology."

"The king hasn't decided yet, but I have a feeling he's already got the idea."

Wakabi said with a serious expression.

An elder said:

"We will discuss this matter with His Majesty and will never allow anything that could shake Wakanda to happen!"

Upon hearing this, Wakabi nodded. With the elders present, even the king could not conduct transactions recklessly.

In the following days, the council of elders had several audiences with King Tchaka.

Nolan, on the other hand, toured Wakanda with T'Challa to experience its culture and customs.

He wasn't in a hurry to make a move regarding the vibranium trade.

The solution to this problem cannot be forced. Rather than rushing to deal with it, it is more important to first gain a sufficient understanding of Wakanda.
