It was midnight, and Adam, lying in bed, found it difficult to sleep. He thought it might be because he hadn't cultivated all day.
After all, it had become a habit; suddenly relaxing like this, his body always felt an endless surge of energy, making him restless.
Of course, it could also be due to certain other reasons he was unwilling to admit.
"Forget it, I'll go tonight. It'll be a Christmas gift too."
He threw off the covers and sat up from the bed, feeling that he still needed to do something.
Christmas was in a few days, and he hadn't prepared Christmas gifts for Wanda and Quicksilver. So, he decided to make a trip to Wakanda now and resolve the issue of their hero practice suits.
The Black Panther suit in Wakanda was shaped like a Black Panther. He couldn't possibly let Wanda and Quicksilver wear the same suit. While the functions would be the same, the appearance would definitely need to be custom-made in advance.
Thus, he directly used Apparition to arrive above a city in Uganda, East Africa.
Due to the time difference, it was currently morning there.
"Wakanda, it should be in this direction."
Wakanda is not far from Uganda. On the surface, it is a very poor and backward small country in East Africa, and its location can be accurately found on the World map.
The location is remote, and transportation is very inconvenient, but the scenery is beautiful, and the area is not small. However, it consists only of plains and mountains, with no apparent exploitable resources on the surface.
Most of the citizens live a nomadic life, without advanced cities or buildings, still existing in tribal forms.
But in reality, Wakanda is the most technologically advanced country on Earth. Its hidden city, Birnin Zana, nestled in the mountains, is no worse than the most advanced civilized cities in the Universe.
Even Thanos, who swept through the Universe's civilizations, was blocked for a considerable time by Wakanda's dome defense shield when he attacked Earth with his most advanced fleet.
Wakanda's warriors also served as the main combat force against Thanos's Legion.
"This is the Sky Defense System. Its strength is quite high."
Flying at full speed, with his perception maximized, Adam quickly arrived above Wakanda and found the hidden Wakandan city of Birnin Zana, where he was stopped outside by the defense shield formed by the Sky System.
With his strength, he could forcibly blast through the defense shield or Apparition inside.
However, he was here to ask for help in making two battle suits, and doing so would obviously be inappropriate.
Wakanda had no enmity or grievances with him, no conflicts of interest, and they hadn't done anything outrageous. Unless absolutely necessary, he still didn't want to solve problems by force.
Compared to force, he preferred to obtain what he wanted through equivalent exchange.
Moreover, he believed the old Black Panther was a smart man and wouldn't be so unperceptive.
Wakanda possesses the World's top intelligence capabilities, with high-ranking informants in various countries. They are very aware of outside affairs and naturally should know his strength.
If they were truly stubborn and unwilling to help, refusing any conditions, then he would be less polite.
He merely preferred peaceful problem-solving through equivalent exchange, but that didn't mean he was truly such an upright and inflexible person.
If reason didn't work, then he was also somewhat proficient in fisticuffs and magic.
"Courtesy before force!"
Landing on the ground, Adam cast a Sonorus Charm on himself, then shouted loudly:
"I am Adam of the League of Heroes, here to visit King T'Chaka of Wakanda!"
At the same time, inside the royal palace in the center of Birnin Zana.
"We have informants in every country in the World. If we just let them distribute powerful Vibranium weapons to the oppressed black people and let them resist, then the entire World will belong to Wakanda.
We, Wakanda, possess Vibranium, the World's most powerful technology and weapons. Why should we be so stifled hiding here? Why should we watch our compatriots outside being oppressed?
We, Wakanda, are the true empire on which the sun never sets!"
Sitting on the throne, a young man covered in scars roared loudly.
Hearing the young man's words, the Elders of various tribes below once again fell into an argument, with some agreeing and some disagreeing.
Most of those who agreed were younger Elders, a minority, who felt that as the pace of technological development outside became faster and faster, one day the existence of Wakanda would be discovered.
At that time, those colonialists outside, for Wakanda's Vibranium and advanced technology, would inevitably unite against Wakanda.
Rather than that, it would be better to preemptively attack according to the plan of the new king, Killmonger, and have Wakanda rule the entire World.
Those who disagreed were some conservatives. They believed that Wakanda had lived in peace and prosperity for so many years, and besides Vibranium, the most important reason was the current policy of isolation.
Once war broke out and shattered the current peace, Wakanda would inevitably face destruction in the future.
However, this argument naturally couldn't hold water. The only argument that truly held water and prevented Killmonger from forcibly implementing his plan was one.
"Your Majesty, what do you intend to do about the League of Heroes and their leader, the formidable Adam?" the oldest tribal leader asked Killmonger with a cough.
All the other Elders also looked at Killmonger.
Killmonger's brows immediately furrowed upon hearing this. It was because of Adam and the League of Heroes that he had been the new king for a year, and his plan still hadn't been successfully implemented.
Fifteen years ago, his father, Prince N'Jobu, in order to provide a better life for their black compatriots outside, colluded with arms dealer Klaw to steal some Vibranium from Wakanda, which led to many Wakandan citizens being caught in an explosion and killed.
Wakanda's King, Black Panther T'Chaka, personally killed his father.
To avenge his father and fulfill his father's dying wish, he worked hard, graduating from the Annapolis Naval Academy four years ago, then earning a master's degree from MIT, and joining the famous SEAL Team's Ghost Squad.
Thereafter, he would leave a scar mark on his body every time he killed someone, earning him the nickname "Killer Demon."
A year ago, he, a ruthless killer, retired from the Ghost Squad. While King T'Chaka was away from Wakanda, he assassinated him with a sniper rifle, and returned with the head of Wakanda's most wanted criminal, Klaw.
He challenged Black Panther T'Challa for the new king's throne with his royal Bloodline and killed him on the spot.
Originally, on the day he became the new king, he planned to begin conquering the World according to his plan, but unfortunately, the Elder Council, due to the rise of the League of Heroes and the existence of Adam, halted his decision.
In Wakanda, the King is the supreme leader, but he cannot act recklessly. There is also an Elder Council composed of eighteen tribal leaders to restrain him.
So, if the Elder Council disagreed, even as the new king, he had no choice.
"Your Majesty, someone claiming to be Adam of the League of Heroes has appeared outside the Sky Defense Shield!"
Just then, a bald female guard rushed into the meeting room.
