Vibranium itself had countless uses. Ultron's jab—"The most versatile metal on Earth, yet humanity uses it to make shields"—was not without reason.
Primordial Vibranium was even more so. It could absorb magical energy, which naturally meant it could carry magical power.
Under the research of the finest craftsmen in the universe, Eitri successfully created this new "Vibranium-Runes" composite material using Rune technology and Vibranium.
"I call this stuff 'Rune Vibranium.' When it comes to carrying Rune power, it may not be as useful as Uru metal, but it's still one of the most compatible metals I've ever seen.
"Based on the amount of material used, I divided the Rune Armor Plates into three grades for small, medium, and large Warships. The Shield Generators made from them are also highly efficient and almost never overload."
The Rune Armor Plates bore beautiful patterns on their surfaces, resembling Damascus steel and looking almost like works of art.
"However, due to this material's properties, the armor plates can only be formed in a single casting inside the furnace," Eitri added.
The method for forging Vibranium was not actually difficult. It was even absurdly simple.
This metal could absorb kinetic energy, block energy, and even resist magical attacks, yet it had no resistance to shockwaves of a particular frequency...
Well, that was a property of Wakandan Vibranium. The Primordial Vibranium used by the Osborn Group did not have that problem and was as hard as the Tesseract's shell.
It was also highly brittle, but after being fused with Rune Stones, the material began transforming toward Wakandan Vibranium while lacking that weakness.
In a sense, it was somewhat like Adamantium. Once a Rune Armor Plate had been cast, it could only be destroyed by overwhelming force, and any damage could not be repaired. It could only
