“Captain Carter, that might be an important person. Should we take him?” In the corner, one of the super soldiers, Luc Delof, looked at the Wakandans dressed in distinctly different clothes and couldn’t help but ask Carter.
"They're not our target, don't cause any trouble!" Carter shook her head as she watched the convoy start moving. There were quite a few of them, and it wouldn't be easy for the three of them to finish the fight quickly. However, she firmly memorized the face of Ablah, who was among the guards in the crowd.
She knew Tapani; she had seen her introduction in the mission briefing before departure.
But no one recognized Ablah.
Even though Wakanda has been exposed to the world for over a year, it's still a big deal.
However, in this era of extremely underdeveloped communication, the transmission of information was inherently slow, and Wakanda also had very strict protection for its high-ranking personnel.
Therefore, apart from King Azuri and a few other high-ranking officials such as Tapani, who serves as the military commander, information about the rest of Wakanda's high-ranking officials is rarely available to other countries.
Not to mention Abrah, who was just one of Azuri's concubines.
As for the news of Abrah's pregnancy, it was known only to Azuri, Tapani, and a very small number of royal medical personnel.
According to outside information, the current young King Azuri of Wakanda has no children.
If they can capture or kill Azuri, Wakanda can officially declare itself extinct, and they can then rightfully divide up the entire country.
After Tapani and his group left, Carter and his two companions emerged from their hiding place and made their way deeper into the palace.
Having foreseen impending defeat, the king led his personal guards to the front lines. So even though the United Nations was only launching a fierce attack on the second line of defense, most of the non-combat personnel in the palace had been evacuated, making it quite deserted. Only a very few guards were still fulfilling their final duties.
Under these circumstances, Carter and his two companions' infiltration went very smoothly; even though the enemy possessed vibranium weapons, they posed no threat to the three of them.
After subduing and interrogating the two guards, they quickly learned the location of Wakanda's research institute and the heavy prison—the mountain behind the royal city, the mountain where the giant black panther statue stood.
“Buschette…it seems we’ve gone in the wrong direction!” As the saying goes, “looking at a mountain makes a horse run itself to death.” Looking at that mountain peak, it was probably at least ten kilometers away. Another super soldier, Andrew Scott, couldn’t help but swear.
"Alright, let's stop complaining and get going as soon as possible. Since the Wakanda have already started dispersing their personnel, the research institute will probably be moved as well. If we don't hurry, we won't be able to find anything!" Carter frowned as he looked at the distant mountains, but the current situation was not the time for them to complain.
If they don't act quickly, and the UN forces manage to enter the capital, their mission will essentially fail.
Why not use a jetpack to travel?
That's ridiculous! This is the enemy's capital. Using a jetpack here would be like telling the Wakandas to come and capture them.
Moreover, the jetpack's fuel is limited. Although it uses highly efficient liquid hydrogen fuel from Red Alert technology, it's not extravagant enough to be used for traveling—a game is just a game after all, and the fuel in a small jetpack can't keep you flying in the air forever.
Of course, if we can get our hands on an arc reactor in the future, that would be a different story.
As for the Arc Reactor, Josie was actually really looking forward to it.
The claim that this toy was invented by Tony Stark in the future is incorrect.
The real inventor of this thing was Howard, who invented it based on the energy of the Tesseract. However, due to the limitations of materials available at the time, it could not be miniaturized.
However, the situation has changed a bit now, as vibranium has been distributed ahead of schedule.
With a large amount of vibranium available, Josh is eagerly anticipating whether Howard can miniaturize the Arc Reactor ahead of schedule after inventing it.
This is also one of the important reasons why he secretly pushed for Wakanda to appear earlier than planned.
After all, Tony Stark's era is too far removed from the present.
Although Josie was confident he could live that long, he feared he wouldn't have the patience for nearly seventy years.
“Although we’re all black, this country isn’t some backward nation that can’t even make a screw, so I think there should be suitable means of transportation somewhere, right, buddy?” But just as Carter and Andrew were ready to run to their destination, Luke turned his gaze to the two Wakanda royal guards who were being controlled.
Upon hearing his reminder, Carter and his companion's eyes lit up.
Five minutes later, three futuristic-looking motorcycles roared out of the palace and sped down the main road of Wakanda, startling fleeing pedestrians who had been fleeing the disaster.
Although Wakanda is wealthy, the lives of ordinary people are quite primitive because vibranium is firmly controlled by the royal family.
In addition, the royal city has a well-developed public transportation system with trams and trains, which are all free, so there are no private vehicles in the royal city.
Therefore, in such a time of national crisis, apart from families with livestock, most ordinary people could only flee on foot, just like those in other underdeveloped African countries, which is quite bizarre.
Fortunately, Carter and his two companions were all modified superhumans with exceptional reflexes, so even when they drove fast, they wouldn't hit anyone.
Moreover, before setting off, the three of them wrapped themselves up tightly in the cloaks and uniforms of the Wakanda royal guards and wore helmets. Along the way, no one noticed that the three of them were white and assumed that they were royal guards rushing to carry out a mission.
What the three of them didn't know was that shortly after they left the palace, another masked figure sneaked into the palace.
After casually killing the palace guards that Carter and his two companions had subdued, the figure rode off on a motorcycle toward Vibranium Mountain.
In this era, the speed of locomotives, while somewhat different from that of later generations, was not significantly different.
Especially considering that Wakanda also used vibranium as a material.
For example, the military Harley-Davidson WLA of this era, the old WWII motorcycle that Captain America rode in the movie, had a top speed of 65 miles per hour, or about 105 kilometers per hour.
These vehicles, used exclusively by the guards of the Wakanda royal palace, could reach speeds of up to 80 miles per hour, or 128 kilometers per hour.
Although I didn't go at full speed on the road.
But it only took about ten minutes to reach the entrance at the foot of the mountain.
Compared to the royal palace, where people had already begun to evacuate, the vibranium mine, as Wakanda's most important strategic resource, was being evacuated much more slowly, but the guards were also much tighter.
From a distance, he signaled to the three people who were speeding towards him to stop.
"What do we do, Captain?" After the three of them slowly stopped the car, Luke and Andrew looked at Carter together. Given the situation, the guards, and the narrow passage, even a fool would know that it was impossible to sneak in silently like they had done at the royal palace.
“There’s no other way, we have to force our way in from there!” Peggy Carter observed the situation briefly and finally pointed to the black panther statue near the top of the mountain.
It's not just a statue; it's also a viewing platform.
Even in the future, when Wakanda's technology reaches its peak, it will still be one of the entrances and exits for vertically ascending and descending spaceships.
However, Wakanda's technology is not that advanced yet, so its fighter jets, like those of other countries, need runways.
Upon hearing Carter's decision, Luke and Andrew exchanged a glance, then removed their camouflage and activated their jetpacks.
At this moment, the Wakandan mine guards ahead naturally realized that these three were enemies, and immediately raised their weapons and fired.
However, the ranged weapons used by the Wakanda in this era were not the incredibly powerful, one-handed sonic cannons that could be used for both close and long-range combat, but rather something similar to a crossbow.
In the future, Wakanda's weapons will be so terrifying because they have developed ultra-long-lasting micro-batteries and wireless charging technology by drawing on various technological theories from outside civilizations and utilizing the properties of vibranium.
After all, no matter how amazing vibranium is, it is still just a metal and is not an energy source itself.
So, just like Captain America's shield, without the support of energy, it can only be a cold weapon.
Despite being a crossbow, its arrowheads, made of vibranium, have a very low kinetic energy decay rate after being fired, so its power is no less than that of a full-power rifle bullet of this era.
If Carter and his two companions hadn't reacted quickly enough, they might have been riddled with bullets on the spot.
Having dodged the barrage of Wakanda's fire, the three quickly activated their jetpacks and flew to the viewing platform on the belly of the black panther statue in the middle of the cliff.
As expected, Carter's choice was correct. Because this place is hundreds of meters above the ground, there is no need to worry about its defenses under normal circumstances, so there is no one here.
However, they acted quickly, and the guards from other areas would soon arrive—the moment they entered, the guards on the outer perimeter of Wakanda below had already sounded the alarm.
"My God, is all of this vibranium?" Following the viewing platform of the black panther statue, we entered the interior of the mountain.
Carter and his two companions stared wide-eyed.
Over the past thousands of years, the Wakandans have carved out an extremely spacious interior space within the mountain, and the rock walls of this space are filled with vibranium ore that glows with a soft blue light.
"Such a vast amount of rare resources, and yet they are controlled by these ignorant black guys. God must be blind!" Andrew's eyes swept greedily over the ore in the mountain, his words full of disdain for the Wakandas.
Upon hearing his words, Carter and the other super soldier, Luke, both subconsciously frowned.
Due to the times they lived in, although they might have some prejudice against Black people deep down, they would not deliberately belittle or insult them.
Andrew's situation was clearly completely different from theirs, and the two could also see that Andrew coveted these priceless vibranium mines.
How did he manage to withstand the enhancements from the Super Soldier Serum?
Carter couldn't help but think of Schmidt, the villain from Super Soldier!
"Alright, now's not the time to daydream. I think that should be the place we're looking for!" Although he was a little uneasy about Andrew's performance, Carter knew that the mission had to come first, so he forced himself to suppress his thoughts and pointed to the towering, tower-like building in the center of the mountain space that led straight to the top.
All three possess superhuman vision, and since the building is transparent, they can easily see many people in research suits and a large number of soldiers in Wakandan traditional clothing constantly destroying data and moving supplies.
As Carter had previously suspected, the Wakanda were clearly preparing to evacuate.
The arrival of Carter and his two companions had already triggered an alarm within the mountain, and the people in the tower were moving in an increasingly hurried manner.
At the same time, the three could also see Wakanda guards everywhere below the mountain and around them, rushing towards them.
"Ignore them, let's go straight there!" With that, Carter activated his jetpack again and flew directly towards the central research institute, intending to smash through the glass and rush inside.
However... with a loud crash.
The imagined scene of shattered glass did not occur.
Carter's situation was more like a moth that flew into a glass window; instead of breaking the glass, it knocked itself senseless.
It means that the super soldier's physique is strong enough; otherwise, if an ordinary person were to crash into it at the speed of a jetpack, they would definitely be killed instantly.
Although Carter did not die, he briefly lost consciousness, which made him unable to control the jetpack, and he began to freefall towards the bottom of the mountain.
Fortunately, Super Soldier Luke, who was right behind her, sped up and caught her before Carter landed.
Otherwise, even a super soldier wouldn't be able to withstand falling from a height of several hundred meters.
"Captain Carter, are you alright?" After grabbing Carter, Luke shook her and asked.
"It's alright, I'm just a little dizzy." Carter waved his hand to indicate that he was fine, but his expression was somewhat embarrassed.
The strength of Wakanda's glass was somewhat beyond her expectations.
“It seems that the material of these glasses is unusual. I suspect that the Wakandans may have mixed vibranium into them!” Andrew, on the other hand, came to this conclusion after tapping the glass with his fist.
