Chapter Summaries

Ye Mo, with Emma Frost and T'Challa guarding him, copied Klaue’s secret records from Wakanda’s control room and concealed their intrusion. As the three withdrew with the data, Ye Mo sensed a familiar external signal growing stronger in the darkness ahead.

• Ye Mo connected to the control console while Emma Frost steadied his mind and T'Challa guarded the entrance.
• Ye Mo uncovered Klaue’s Hydra ties, Wakandan infiltration plans, and a sonic weapon scheme designed to weaken vibranium.
• Ye Mo used Mirror Override to hide their access logs as the data transfer completed.
• Ye Mo took the chip containing the records, and the group left the control room together.
• A strange external signal interrupted Ye Mo as they entered the corridor, and he looked toward the darkness ahead.

Ye Mo, T'Challa, and Emma Frost escaped the collapsing base with the data chip as its self-destruct sequence neared detonation. They emerged onto a hillside, but a massive fireball was hurtling toward them.

• Emma Frost warned Ye Mo and T'Challa about an explosive trap, and T'Challa stopped just before the corridor collapsed.
• T'Challa led the group through a backup passage, deflecting laser beams while Emma Frost struggled to disrupt the defenses.
• Ye Mo used a signal jammer to open an emergency door, and the three climbed a smoke-filled stairwell toward the surface.
• Ye Mo, T'Challa, and Emma Frost lifted a buried manhole cover and escaped onto a hillside as the base burned behind them.
• Ye Mo shielded the chip and braced with T'Challa and Emma Frost as a fireball surged toward them.

Ye Mo used a force field to shield himself, Emma, and T'Challa from a devastating explosion, but the effort left him badly exhausted. With Klaue's men possibly pursuing them, the three prepared to leave the burning base ruins.

• Ye Mo raised a force field around himself, Emma, and T'Challa as the explosion's shockwave struck.
• Ye Mo held the shield together under the blast while Emma steadied him and T'Challa urged him not to let go.
• After the shockwave passed, Ye Mo collapsed, and T'Challa helped him to his feet.
• Emma confirmed they were not in immediate danger, and Ye Mo checked that the data chip had survived.
• Ye Mo warned that Klaue's men could catch up, so the three formed a defensive formation and prepared to move on.

After escaping Klaue’s drones, Ye Mo, T'Challa, and Emma examined the evidence they had recovered and discovered a planned weapons network that threatened lives and Wakanda. They agreed to strike Klaue’s logistics supply chain, while Ye Mo began recovering and the data backup continued.

• T'Challa led the exhausted Ye Mo and Emma to a concealed Wakandan cave as Klaue’s drones searched the ruins.
• Ye Mo checked the scorched data chip, and Emma confirmed its core remained intact before they loaded it into a Wakandan decoder.
• Emma found a map of Klaue’s weapons routes and a list of potential buyers, and T'Challa recognized the evidence as a threat to many lives.
• T'Challa proposed alerting S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers, but Ye Mo urged them to strike Klaue’s logistics base before he could act again.
• T'Challa asked Ye Mo to use his Vibranium Sense to trace the weapons, and Ye Mo agreed after eating a ration biscuit.
• Ye Mo dimmed the decoder while its backup reached fifteen percent, then rested as T'Challa kept watch.

Ye Mo and Emma Frost uncovered Klaue's Project Golden Sonic, a vibranium-based weapon capable of killing within a five-hundred-meter radius. T'Challa agreed to share the data with S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers, and the group set out to find Klaue's supply lines.

• Ye Mo used Vibranium Sense while Emma Frost filtered the encrypted data to locate the hidden Project Golden Sonic files.
• Ye Mo and T'Challa discovered that the schematics used forbidden vibranium fragments to amplify sonic waves into a weapon that could destroy organs and concrete.
• Emma Frost found test data showing that a single shot could inflict lethal damage within a five-hundred-meter radius.
• Ye Mo urged T'Challa to protect people beyond Wakanda, and Emma Frost warned that avoiding Klaue would not bring peace.
• T'Challa agreed to activate the highest-level external liaison protocol and send the data to S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers.
• T'Challa proposed finding Klaue's supply lines, while Ye Mo watched the data backup finish and realized the real battle had just begun.

Ye Mo, T'Challa, and Emma Frost planned to cripple Klaue's sonic weapons by cutting off his vibranium supply chain while keeping Wakanda's secrets from the public. Their first suspected warehouse turned out to have strange energy readings, and an incoming high-energy threat forced them to prepare for an imminent attack.

• Ye Mo identified weaknesses in Klaue's raw-material sources, transit routes, and storage sites, while Emma Frost sensed that people at several locations were secretive agents rather than ordinary merchants.
• Emma Frost proposed covert strikes against smuggling routes and storage sites, and T'Challa agreed to seek reliable allies while assigning Ye Mo technical intelligence support and Emma contact-finding duties.
• T'Challa selected a secret East African warehouse as their first target and ordered them to confirm its situation within twenty-four hours.
• Ye Mo sensed strange, weak energy fluctuations at the warehouse and suspected someone was destroying evidence or that the site was a trap.
• A communicator warned of a high-energy reaction 3.5 kilometers away, expected to arrive in ten minutes, and T'Challa prepared for the threat.

Ye Mo, T'Challa, and Emma Frost formed an international network to isolate Klaue and disrupt his supply lines. As they prepared to expose his ledger, the approaching convoy vanished, suggesting a stronger force had already begun a cleanup operation.

• T'Challa had Ye Mo and Emma Frost send evidence of Klaue's crimes to international allies, including African Union delegates and S.H.I.E.L.D.
• Ye Mo proposed using limited logistics information to draw out Klaue's supply network, while Emma Frost tailored messages to persuade cautious countries to join in.
• T'Challa, Ye Mo, and Emma agreed to coordinate the operation, with Ye Mo monitoring nodes through Vibranium Sense and Emma guarding their communications psychically.
• The alarms stopped, and Ye Mo detected that the approaching high-energy source had disappeared rather than retreated.
• Ye Mo concluded that an unknown force had taken the convoy and was cleaning up at the same time they sent out their intelligence.
• T'Challa ordered Ye Mo to monitor every node and Emma to maintain psychic shielding as he prepared to reveal that Klaue's ledger was no longer in Klaue's hands; far away, Klaue found an empty case and heard only static on his call.

Ye Mo used his Vibranium Sense, with Emma Frost filtering the signals, to locate Klaue’s warehouse, dock, and processing site and send allies an operations guide. The assaults began successfully, but a mysterious third party appeared at the industrial district, and Ye Mo sensed a warning suggesting the apparent victory had come too easily.

• Emma Frost helped Ye Mo isolate vibranium signals, and he identified three of Klaue’s sites and their structural weaknesses.
• T'Challa ordered Ye Mo to send the intelligence package to S.H.I.E.L.D., the Africa Union, and neutral countries, and the first assault teams deployed.
• Ye Mo sensed the underground warehouse collapse and learned that S.H.I.E.L.D. drones covered the coastal dock as its vibranium signal turned chaotic.
• Ye Mo detected an unknown third party at the industrial district, where Klaue’s forces and the newcomers clashed amid the attack.
• As Ye Mo prepared to report the developments, a stabbing warning struck his mind, and he realized the operation had gone too smoothly.
