Chapter 545: King T'Chaka (First Update)
Chapter 545: King T'Chaka (First Update)
At the border of Wakanda, in a structure that looked like a yurt, Jerry sat in a chair, quietly waiting for the arrival of T'Chaka, the current king of Wakanda.
After Jerry had identified himself, the border guard squad leader immediately relayed the message up the chain of command.
Wakanda clearly took Jerry's appearance very seriously and quickly responded.
The squad leader escorted Jerry to the nearest yurt for rest, informing him that the king would personally come to meet him shortly.
Jerry was not surprised by this.
After all, Wakanda was still largely a secret to the outside world. Although Jerry was an Avenger, his sudden visit to Wakanda would naturally make the king cautious, and he would not want to reveal the true nature of Wakanda.
Therefore, meeting at the border was the most appropriate choice.
On one hand, Jerry would not be able to discover the actual state of Wakanda's cities. On the other hand, the king's personal visit would demonstrate the importance placed on his arrival.
In reality, with his current level of the Transfiguration Spell and the Reality Gem, Jerry could conjure most things by expending magic power.
However, there were still limitations.
For example, in this situation, it wasn't that he couldn't create Vibranium; rather, he couldn't create the original, pure form of Vibranium.
He had never seen the true form of pure Vibranium.
The Transfiguration Spell and the Reality Gem can create anything, but the prerequisite is that you must have some understanding of the object. It's not enough to just know the name and imagine it.
This is especially true for more complex items.
For instance, the philosopher's stone, which grants eternal life, Jerry could now create using the Transfiguration Spell and the Reality Gem, but it would require more magic power to transform.
This is because he had studied and analyzed the philosopher's stone, gaining a certain level of understanding.
If he hadn't visited the Harry Potter world and seen the philosopher's stone, and had only known about it from watching movies in his past life, he would not be able to conjure it out of thin air.
The Reality Gem and the Transfiguration Spell can create matter as long as you expend magic power.
However, there are still limitations. For example, if Jerry wanted to create a super bomb that could destroy the entire Earth, it would be impossible to do so purely through imagination.
Vibranium is similar.
Jerry had seen Captain America's Shield and Vision's Vibranium Body, but he had never seen the pure form of Vibranium.
Captain America's Shield is primarily made of Vibranium, but it is not entirely Vibranium. It was a new metal created by Howard, who unintentionally combined various materials, resulting in Adamantium.
Compared to pure Vibranium, Adamantium is even more durable and less likely to be damaged.
This is why, after Captain America's Shield was damaged by Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet, it could not be recreated using Vibranium alone and had to be brought back from a parallel universe.
Similarly, Vision's body is primarily made of Vibranium, but it is not entirely Vibranium. It was created by Dr. Helen Zhao using the Rebirth Cradle, nanotechnology, and other substances to form a new alloy.
Vision's body doesn't have the same level of defense as Captain America's Shield. Even after Jerry transformed into a demon, he could tear Vision's body in half with his bare hands. However, Vision's body possesses biological characteristics that make him a unique life form, not entirely a machine.
Wakandan weapons and technology, including the current ones, are not made entirely from pure Vibranium. Instead, they are the result of fusing and modifying other materials with Vibranium.
This indicates that pure Vibranium is not just indestructible on the surface; it has multiple properties and can be combined with most substances, enhancing their qualities.
This is what Jerry values the most.
He wants to fuse the Magical Conductive Metal from the Tail World with Asgardian Uru Metal to enhance his armor, and Vibranium serves as an excellent neutralizing metal.
It's not just the defensive capabilities of Vibranium that attract him. If that were the case, he could have simply used Captain America's Shield and wouldn't need to come to Wakanda to seek pure Vibranium.
In fact, he is confident about this trip because he doesn't need much. Just one gram from the king of Wakanda would suffice.
With one gram of pure Vibranium, he can study it with magic and then use the Transfiguration Spell and the Reality Gem to produce large quantities.
As a respected Witch, he should have some influence.
Especially after recently defeating the demon and saving the world, Wakanda cannot help but be wary of his power.
If the king refuses, he will have to resort to special means, such as Apparition to the Vibranium Quarry and taking some for himself.
Calculating the time, he has been in the Main World and the years spent in the Mini World, it has been several years.
He has gradually come to understand that, regardless of the world, the essence is survival of the fittest and the rule of the strong.
With enough power, you can set the rules and make others follow them. With enough power, you can also break established rules.
Therefore, his philosophy is that, if possible, he will try to obtain what he wants through peaceful and fair trade principles.
Even if the other party seems as weak as an ant.
However, if this ant refuses, he will have to take other measures.
"Oh, here we go!"
After waiting in the yurt for about ten minutes, Jerry sensed a large invisible aircraft landing a few kilometers away.
Five minutes later, the curtain of the yurt was pulled aside by two bald women holding spears, and a black man in his sixties, dressed in Wakandan traditional attire, walked in with a smile.
"Greetings, King T'Chaka!"
Jerry stood up and greeted him politely.
King T'Chaka, clearly not daring to be rude to Jerry, returned the greeting without any airs of a king:
"Welcome, Mr. Jerry, to Wakanda. I apologize for the simplicity of our welcome."
"Your Majesty, no need for formality. I heard that Wakanda produces a metal called Vibranium, worth ten thousand dollars per gram. I would like to purchase one gram."
Jerry didn't waste time with pleasantries and directly stated the purpose of his visit after a brief greeting.
T'Chaka was taken aback for a moment, then immediately put on a difficult smile:
"Mr. Jerry, you have come at an unfortunate time. If it were a few decades ago, I could have given you a gram of Vibranium without any issue. However, now, Wakanda no longer has any Vibranium."
