Magneto deliberately showed a look of astonishment. In truth, the real purpose of his visit today was Wakanda's vibranium resources. This was both a task Sean had assigned him and a crucial factor in allowing Mutants to gain a foothold on the African Continent.
Building a newly established base from nothing into a nation was far too slow. At the very least, Magneto felt that he did not have enough time to wait, but Sean had provided him with an excellent place.
What could be a better starting point for Mutants than an isolated African country cut off from the world?
Magneto knew that Ulysses Klaw was one of the few lucky people who had infiltrated Wakanda and escaped unscathed. He possessed a secret channel for stealing vibranium.
A key reason this black-market merchant had risen to prominence was the priceless vibranium resources. Though publicly, this expensive metal with miraculous properties was said to be worth the same as gold, through private channels, its price was dozens or even hundreds of times higher than gold!
Vibranium, also known as Sound-Absorbing Steel, came from meteorites beyond Earth. Unlike all heavy metallic elements, it was not radioactive, granting it unparalleled durability. It could also absorb kinetic energy and store it.
Captain America's shield contained some vibranium. Even against Iron Man's cannons and Thor's lightning, it could still maintain formidable defensive power.
Vibranium possessed a special molecular structure. Because its atoms were permanently fixed at absolute zero, the lack of movement in its atomic structure meant that this unusual metal fundamentally lacked the conditions to conduct energy.
These distinctive traits made vibranium highly suitable for defensive alloys, as it could withstand terrifying impacts without harming its wielder.
"Wakanda?"
Magneto repeated the name, a cryptic glimmer passing through his eyes.
"I've never heard of
