A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 283 This is the real Wakanda

The following day, Tony, having discussed a plan with Levi, held a press conference on behalf of the Alliance, in conjunction with the Alliance led by the five major merchants, to respond to Wakanda's criticism of the Alliance the previous day.

"On behalf of the Alliance, I express my regret for the innocent victims. We must also admit that in our journey towards interstellar travel, our Alliance and the members of the Earth Alliance have not done a perfect job. Therefore, we can understand the resentment that some people in certain countries and regions have towards us!" Tony said.

His opening remarks surprised the journalists from various countries present.

It should be noted that in the past period of time, although the Earth Alliance's move towards the interstellar age caused a great deal of commotion around the world.

However, the alliance has always remained calm and composed, with the Earth Alliance, mainly composed of the five major merchants, handling all matters.

All measures were implemented in a rather forceful manner.

Therefore, most people on Earth believe that the Alliance is an extremely powerful organization.

It is impossible to get them to change their original policies and strategies.

But Tony's words today seem to indicate that this is not the case.
Is it all because of the joint statement issued yesterday by Wakanda and several other African countries?
Or perhaps... the alliance has other motives?

"But!" The moment Tony uttered the "but," the eyes of the reporters present lit up instantly.

Just as they predicted, there's some big news here!

"However! I hope that people from certain countries, when criticizing the Alliance, would first ask themselves if they have the right to criticize us. Although our Alliance is indeed not perfect, at least we have contributed a lot of technology and provided support in various aspects, bringing human civilization into a completely new realm, unlike some countries that clearly possess the most advanced technology and the most precious resources in the world, yet they hide them, afraid that any other country or nation will take advantage of them even a little bit!" Tony said emphatically.

However, apart from the Earth Alliance personnel who had been informed beforehand, all the journalists from various countries attending the meeting were completely baffled by his words.

Because they had absolutely no idea which country Tony was referring to.

Those criticizing the alliance are naturally the African countries, but they simply cannot reconcile the fact that these countries possess the world's most advanced technology and most precious resources with those of Africa.

Was Tony Stark referring to South Africa?

After all, South Africa was once a developed country, but after the Black man came to power, the country declined completely at an alarming rate.

The only group of Wakanda, led by King T'Chaka, who were also watching the alliance press conference, changed color instantly upon hearing Tony Stark's words.

“Dad, do they know something? After all, according to my investigation, Tony Stark had dealings with Ulysses Klaue a few years ago!” T’Challa, who was still the prince, said, standing next to T’Chaka.

“It’s alright, son. Even if they know something, as long as we don’t admit it, they can’t do anything to us!” Tchaka comforted his son.

"You shouldn't have stepped forward to do that yesterday!" Queen Lamanda said disapprovingly.

“Several neighboring brother nations have invited me to step forward. Even as the king of that poor Wakanda, I have no reason not to stand up, especially since we have sacrificed so many of our people this time.” Tchaka shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, everything will be alright.”

But soon, Tchaka changed his mind.

"I know you're all wondering which country I'm talking about. After all, in our general perception, there shouldn't be such a powerful country outside of the Big Five, but in fact, it far exceeds our imagination... The country I'm talking about is none other than Wakanda!" Tony continued in the hall. His answer caused an uproar throughout the entire hall.

Because this answer, just as Tony said, was indeed beyond their imagination.

After all, Wakanda is known worldwide as one of the poorest countries.

“Mr. Tony Stark, this is Christine Everhart. What evidence do you have for this accusation against Wakanda? After all, as far as we know, Wakanda has always been one of the poorest countries in the world, largely unknown internationally, and many people don’t even know it exists.” A female reporter stepped forward, voiced the concerns of all the reporters present.

"It's her!" Li Wei, who was watching the show from a corner of the venue, was somewhat surprised to see the female reporter appear.

"You know her?" Wanda's gaze sharpened instantly.

Because this female reporter was tall with long legs and a pretty good figure, although she was far inferior to Wanda in the present day, she was still quite attractive to men. Didn't you see that even Tony on the podium couldn't help but glance at her a few more times?

“I wouldn’t say we knew each other. In the original timeline, she exposed to Tony that Obama had been smuggling weapons to Central Asia. Oh, and she also slept with Tony once, and had a verbal argument with Pepper, which she lost pretty badly,” Levi immediately explained to Wanda.

Upon hearing Li Wei's explanation, Wanda's gaze softened instantly.

Oh, it's Tony Stark's unwanted romantic entanglements? Then it's alright.

"Of course I have evidence, everyone please take a look!" Tony on the podium was unaware that Levi was secretly damaging his reputation again, and continued his credible speech.

Now that Tony had made up his mind, he did glance at Christine a few more times, but he didn't really have any particular thoughts about her.

As he finished speaking, a huge virtual screen appeared behind him.

A bizarrely styled Black city appeared on the screen.

The city's inhabitants wore extremely simple clothing, yet the city itself was remarkably advanced, magnificent, and futuristic.

Suspended transportation, high-tech buildings, and holographic communication tools in the hands of the public.

It gives people a strange and absurd feeling.

Then came some "warriors" dressed in primitive clothing, carrying ancient weapons such as spears and scimitars, who were training.

And when they saw those seemingly outdated weapons firing beams of energy or forming energy shields, the entire venue fell silent.

Not only the venue, but the entire world, which was broadcasting the press conference live, fell into an eerie silence.

The same goes for the Wakanda Royal Palace...

"This is the real Wakanda. They possess an extremely precious metal on Earth, vibranium..." Tony slowly introduced Wakanda and the origin of vibranium to everyone, as well as the current true situation of Wakanda.
