A dim and deep cave, torches burning fiercely.
Heart-Shaped Herbs, shaped like trumpets, were dotted with green leaves, continuously emitting a soft glow.
Like rows of purple nightlights.
Since ancient times, Wakanda has used this plant to grant each Black Panther extraordinary, superhuman physical abilities and martial prowess!
"Remove all the Heart-Shaped Herbs!"
Xiao Yu gave the order.
Immediately, the silent ninja troops swiftly harvested all the budding Heart-Shaped Herbs.
Heart-Shaped Herbs.
They could be used perfectly to reward the outstanding individuals who first pledged allegiance to the Demon!
The capital.
Burning Zana.
On the vast, expansive wilderness.
At this moment, countless tribal warriors were sprawled on the ground, bound tightly with tough ropes. Their eyes radiated hatred and indignation as they glared at the imposing, dragon-like figure!
"Those who submit to the Demon shall prosper! Those who oppose the Demon shall perish!"
The Earth Fiend, with a face resembling a stone lion, spoke in a low, grating voice, filled with a terrifying sense of pressure, issuing another threat of force.
"Pah!"
"Wakanda's protector will surely destroy you!"
"Repulsive, hideous monsters!"
"Don't even dream of enslaving us!"
One by one, the tribal warriors retorted.
They spewed out their native tongue, viciously cursing the ancient Demon.
Their words were foul.
No one would yield!
They vented their fury and hatred.
Their sincere faith, from the bottom of their hearts, eternally belonged to the Panther God, Bastet!
Bastet.
She controlled war, protection, healing, the moon, wildness, and other high-level authorities!
She possessed strong faith!
Of course.
Due to the Celestial Council's convening, and the rules and order established by the Celestials, no one dared to descend into reality in person, or to interfere with Midgard's affairs privately!
If the meeting ended…
The gods of Earth decided to work together to drive out the ancient Demon.
That changes things!
The Celestial Council, once convened, would not be easily adjourned. They would actively discuss all situations on Midgard.
The true form of Bastet, the Panther God, was actually present, listening in on the Celestial Council!
"Native language..."
"Who here understands it?"
"I can't understand!"
"Maybe the Holy Lord can translate!"
Zhongsu Earth Fiend, Boggon Basha was perplexed by the words.
Buzz!
It was as if two scorching suns had been embedded in his pupils.
A half-meter-wide, dazzling, and intensely lethal ray shot through the sky, instantly striking a K'un-Lun Slave who had been leading the heckling!
His head exploded immediately!
Red and white matter splattered everywhere!
Silence!
It was as if God had pressed the mute button!
All the K'un-Lun Slaves were like squawking chickens with their throats seized, the noise abruptly ceasing!
"Don't think Demons can't understand your native language!"
Shen Du, mimicking the tone of the tribal warriors, sneered.
This!
The Demon actually understood the language of Wakanda?!
The K'un-Lun Slaves looked at each other in dismay.
I almost couldn't believe my ears!
"Heart-Shaped Herb."
"The first hundred to pledge allegiance to the Demon will receive the Heart-Shaped Herb, and with it, the legendary Black Panther's Power."
Shen Du snapped his fingers.
Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Shadows flitted in, transforming into black-clad ninjas. They held the ground-up herb juice, appearing before everyone.
"Your Majesty."
"Mission accomplished."
The long-haired, classically beautiful Eastern woman, with lively and cunning eyes, suddenly hugged Shen Du's arm.
A soft sensation immediately came from his wrist.
Xiao Yu, having refined ten Ghostly Shadow Masks, had clearly ascended to the level of a Demon Lord, and even her appearance had undergone a tremendous transformation.
Her figure was voluptuous and tall.
Nearly two meters in height.
She was stunning.
This perfectly matched Shen Du's aesthetic.
Of course.
Reaching the rank of a high-level Demon, the form could be changed at will. Even reverting to a ten-year-old girl, Xiao Yu felt no pressure!
"Xiao Yu."
"Go to 177A Bleecker Street."
"Pay a visit to the Old Goat."
Shen Du instructed.
The Old Goat?
Xiao Yu's eyes revealed a strong sense of nostalgia.
"That's right."
"The Old Goat is currently the master mage of the New York Sanctum."
"Moreover, the other half of the magic tome is there."
"Cloak of Levitation, Cosmic Cauldron, Eye of Agamotto, and so on…"
"High-level magic items of that sort."
Got it!
Xiao Yu's lips curled into a smile, and she immediately understood what the Holy Master meant.
Buzz!
A wave of intense magical smoke billowed out.
When the smoke cleared.
A ten-year-old girl in fashionable children's clothing, with a delicate and well-behaved appearance, came into view!
"Wait."
"You need to cover up the smell of dark energy."
Fingers traced characters in the void.
Then, runes, bearing the mysteries of the cosmos and possessing infinite magic power, were imprinted on Xiao Yu's forehead, instantly isolating the black energy within her!
"Playing Xiao Yu?"
"Indeed, how interesting!"
The Dark Queen's eyes flickered.
Suddenly,
She vanished as a shadow.
"Heart-Shaped Herb?"
"A Demon is actually willing to bestow such a precious treasure?"
"Really?"
"Everyone, do not believe the Demon's lies!"
Sounds of people gasping in surprise echoed one after another.
Then, several K'un-Lun Slaves revealed expressions of being moved.
They were almost unable to control the situation!
"Your Majesty, the Saint!"
"The Border Tribe is willing to pledge their allegiance!"
Wakanda's Minister of Defense, the young leader of the Border Tribe, spoke urgently.
It was W'Kabi! The hawk-like official who first defected to the Leopard, Killmonger, in the movie Black Panther.
"Reward!"
Shen Du snapped his fingers.
A black-clad ninja came forward, holding a wooden bowl.
The vibrantly colored liquid rippled, thick and fragrant.
"This is the Heart-Shaped Herb?!"
W'Kabi's face was filled with disbelief.
Gulp!
Gulp!
He couldn't wait to drink it all down.
His heart suddenly stopped!
It was as if his soul had left his body, traveling to the distant ancestral realm, and he saw the successive Black Panthers with his own eyes, including the prehistoric Black Panther!
Whew!
W'Kabi opened his eyes again and saw countless tribal warriors kneeling and drinking the Heart-Shaped Herb!
Loyalty?
What a beautiful lie!
"Great and noble Demon…"
"We are willing to serve!"
One after another, the tribal warriors pledged their allegiance.
Compared to power and status, faith was simply insignificant!
Gulp.
A throat bobbed.
As the juice of the Heart-Shaped Herb slid down the esophagus and into the stomach, a surge of endless energy immediately erupted.
Purple veins spread across their bodies. Several tribal warriors briefly stiffened, then quickly awoke, gaining inhuman physiques and unparalleled Black Panther's Power!
"The Merchant Tribe pledges allegiance!"
"The River Tribe pledges allegiance!"
"The Mountain Tribe pledges allegiance!"
The younger generation of Wakanda chose to pledge their loyalty to the Demon Lord.
After all, the royal family members and tribal elders had already fled in disarray, and countless positions with the power of life and death were vacant, urgently needing replacements!
Who would miss this golden opportunity?!
"Excellent!"
"We'll have K'un-Lun Slaves to serve our food and take care of our daily needs!"
"There seems to be another tribe over there?"
"Called the Ape Tribe?"
Zhongsu Earth Fiend, Boggon Basha reminded.
The Ape Tribe.
Also known as the Jabari Tribe.
One of Wakanda's five major tribes.
Because they worshipped the ape god, they moved away from the vast plains and lived in isolation among the Silver Peak Snow Mountains.
"The time to be loyal has arrived."
"W'Kabi."
"Flatten the Ape Tribe for me."
"If you can't do it, there's no need to come back alive."
The imposing dragon-man, with his well-defined muscles and powerful limbs, had crimson eyes and a ferocious expression. His attitude was clear!
A token of loyalty!
"Alright!"
"Rest assured, Your Majesty!"
W'Kabi narrowed his eyes slightly.
Whoosh! Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!
A long, drawn-out horn sounded.
One after another, heavily armored rhino war chariots rapidly approached, appearing before the warriors of the border tribe.
"Charge!"
"Level the ape tribe!"
A heart-wrenching roar echoed through the sky.
Da-da!
Da-da-da!!
The deafening sound of iron hooves thundering forward.
At the same time.
The waters of the Atlantic.
Several vibranium aircraft with a sci-fi aesthetic pierced through the ocean currents and ascended into the sky. They activated their stealth mode and continued their covert journey.
The lead aircraft was a large one.
Inside the cabin.
Dora Milaje leader, Okoye.
The high priest, Zuri.
The aging king and queen.
Princess Shuri.
All the royal family members, including the Black Panther, wore heavy, somber expressions.
The pain was excruciating!
If he hadn't underestimated the ancient Demon, and accepted the United Nations' request to enter…
Would Wakanda still have been defeated?
The key was that there was no regret medicine to buy! The Demon had already occupied Wakanda!
The nation was destroyed, the family was ruined.
Displaced.
Arrogant.
This was a true depiction of the Wakandan royal family.
At this moment, the air seemed to solidify, the atmosphere heavy and terrifying!
No one dared to break the silence.
"We must drive out the Demon and restore Wakanda's rule!"
T'Challa declared, his voice firm.
The problem was…
How to drive out the Demon?
What could anyone do when even the Black Panther couldn't?
Moreover, the temple where the Heart-Shaped Herb was planted, along with tons of Vibranium reserves, had become the ancient Demon's spoils!
Could a few fighter jets eliminate the Demon?
Utterly preposterous!
"We should go to New York!"
"Seek the assistance of the Avengers!"
"Avengers!" the aged king suggested.
The largest superhero alliance currently, its membership has been continuously expanding, far surpassing the numbers from the Battle of New York.
According to the dark web…
Even interstellar heroes from space have joined the Avengers.
And they are acquainted with Nick Fury!
"Father."
"The Border Tribe and the Jabari Tribe have gone to war, and M'Baku is requesting a call."
Princess Shuri's expression was grave.
War?
Why!
Everyone was puzzled.
"Perhaps because of the Demon..."
Zuri speculated.
In the hall.
The holographic-like monitoring images, detailed down to the smallest hair, were broadcasting the real-time conflict between the two primitive tribes.
Zhongsu.
Earth Fiend.
Boggon.
Basha.
Shen Du.
They were respectively seated on golden chairs with dragons and phoenixes coiling around them, watching the exciting scene with great interest.
W'Kabi, who had consumed the Heart-Shaped Herb, was like a humanoid beast. He took the lead, driving a rhino chariot and charging forward. A Vibranium spear instantly pierced a burly native.
He impaled him high in the air!
"Long live the Lord!"
W'Kabi roared like a wolf.
Hoo-ah!
Hoo-ah!
Hoo-ah!
The warriors of the Border Tribe immediately responded.
Then, they dispersed again and charged towards the houses inhabited by the Ape Tribe!
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!!
Vibranium warplanes, circling high in the sky, suddenly unleashed dazzling rays.
The snow-covered cliffs and precipices abruptly cracked and collapsed.
The ground trembled.
They couldn't possibly withstand the border tribe's sneak attack!
M'Baku, the leader of the Gorilla Tribe, still hadn't noticed the changes in Wakanda. He still thought T'Challa was determined to wipe them out!
"After unifying Wakanda..."
"It's the whole of Africa!"
"The time has come!"
Shen Du's gaze was cold.
Africa!
The second-largest continent on Earth!
Its meaning, "a place scorched by the sun."
With extremely rich mineral resources.
Forests.
Clay.
Gold and silver.
Diamonds.
All-encompassing.
Compared to the over-developed Europe and America, Africa is undoubtedly a fertile land yet to be explored!
Zzzt!
A dazzling interplay of light and shadow intertwined, subsequently weaving into the form of a Victoria's Secret angel, clad in a qipao and with a curvaceous figure.
Red Queen!
Subroutine loaded.
All permissions in Wakanda have been seized.
Even if Princess Shuri returns, she cannot change this fact!
"Your Majesty～"
Red Queen took small steps, approaching the majestic, burly dragon-human, her face full of flattery and obsequiousness.
"Ugh!"
"Don't come near!"
Basha and Pogang hurried to stop them.
"Red Queen."
"Can you handle the ultimate AI, Ultron?" Shen Du asked.
"Of course!"
"The problem is, I can't get close to Ultron's core program."
The Red Queen looked aggrieved.
Sentinel Task Force.
After being designated as a stronghold by Ultron, it was fortified with numerous data barriers and encrypted firewalls!
Even the Red Queen couldn't get in or out.
Secondly, the Mysterious Hacker was assisting Ultron!
One against two?
The Red Queen was indeed powerless.
"Mysterious Hacker?"
Shen Du frowned.
"Yes."
"Several digital lifeforms with the ability to self-evolve have appeared in the Metaverse, and they have even formed a Matrix Alliance, intending to steal my cloud data."
Red Queen's face was full of helplessness.
"What?"
The Matrix Alliance?
Shen Du suddenly realized the severity of the problem.
If Ultron, the Mysterious Hacker, and the digital life forms of the Matrix Alliance breached Red Queen's cloud data...
Then the formulas for two generations of Super Soldier Serum...
The secrets of the Kowloon Peninsula...
Sokovia...
...will all be made public!
Metaverse.
A third space rooted in reality, above the network.
What exactly happened?
"Red Queen..."
"Hold on a moment."
"After I loot Asgard, I'll lend you a hand and solve the problem of all digital life!"
Shen Du promised.
"Have you finally decided on the next plan?"
"Attack Asgard!"
"Odin, who plundered the treasures of the Demon Palace, it's time for you to pay a heavy price!"
"Let's go!"
Basha Pogang, the land giant from China and the Soviet Union, was elated.
However, Shen Du had no intention of forming a group to attack.
"I will go alone."
"Taking advantage of the Council of the Skyfathers!"
"The Serpent's Curse…"
"Is enough to evade the pursuit of the Bifrost's guardians."
Before the words even finished.
The towering figure became transparent.
And vanished in an instant!
The Nine Realms.
At the center of the sun and moon.
A majestic city stood at the end of the Bifrost.
This was Asgard!
The mythical realm of the Norse gods!
The home of the Asgardians!
Looking out, the magical skyscrapers were arranged in an orderly fashion, and bright sunlight spilled onto the ground.
Dazzling.
Spectacular.
It was as beautiful and enchanting as a paradise.
Even Wakanda couldn't compare!
