Explosive flames erupted, covering nearly half of the conference hall. Thanks to the protection of the Avengers sitting in the front row, most of the attending national representatives did not suffer significant injuries.
The Avengers, attending the United Nations conference in Vienna, had a dual purpose: to be present for the signing of the "Seoul Accords" and to fulfill a task – that is ensuring the safety of the representatives from 117 signatory countries present today. Clearly, the Avengers executed their mission admirably.
However, King T'Chaka of Wakanda, who was at the center of the explosion, wasn't as fortunate. He didn't survive the unexpected incident, catching even Quicksilver off guard.
T'Challa, who was also a step late, dropped to his knees beside his father's lifeless body, tears streaming down his face.
The sudden loss of his father due to this unexpected tragedy was difficult for T'Challa to accept. Yet, before he could process his emotions, a wild and piercing laughter echoed from beyond the shattered glass façade, outside the venue.
"Hi~ Hi~ Hi~ Hi! Surprised? Shocked? My dear little darlings—"
Upon hearing this voice, T'Challa immediately stood up and looked backward. He saw a stranger dressed in green metallic armor, wearing an exaggerated demon mask, and sporting jet-powered glider wings on his feet.
T'Challa had never seen this person before, nor did he recall any conflicts between this person and Wakanda. But from this day onward, this face and attire were etched deeply into T'Challa's mind.
He silently swore to himself that he would personally avenge his father's death.
However, now was not the time. T'Challa wasn't wearing the Black Panther suit, and more importantly, he needed to protect his father's body, ensuring it remained unharmed.
Without hesitation, T'Challa lifted his father's body and sprinted out of the conference hall at incredible speed, heading straight for the Wakandan delegation's resting area.
The green-clad figure, witnessing T'Challa's action, made no immediate move. He merely hovered silently in his original position, his gaze piercing through the menacing mask, coldly fixated on the Avengers within the hall who were now watching him.
"This is just a welcoming gift. Our game is about to officially begin. I'll make sure you get a taste of the pain I experienced in Seoul!
Avengers, until we meet again, Hi~ Hi~ Hi~ Hi!"
With those words, the figure extended four gun barrels from the front end of his glider wings, unleashing a torrent of bullets towards the Avengers who were shielding the attending representatives. Simultaneously, he retrieved a metallic sphere resembling a small pumpkin from his waist and its surface was emitting a flickering glow.
Fortunately, Scarlet Witch reacted swiftly, immediately activating her own abilities and creating a telekinetic shield to protect the Avengers and the representatives behind them. Ding ding ding! Bullets relentlessly struck the telekinetic shield, only to lose their energy and fall to the ground. Soon after, two small pumpkins also erupted astonishingly.
Boom—!
Another explosion occurred, its power was the same as the initial blast that claimed King T'Chaka's life. The intense explosion generated flames and smoke, obscuring the Avengers' vision.
As the dust settled, upon looking outside once more, the mysterious man who attacked the conference had vanished without a trace. All that remained was a scene of devastation and the shaken cries of the representatives.
"Damn it! That guy got away!" Quicksilver vented his frustration.
"This man in the green armor, wearing the demon mask, was clearly well-prepared for today's operation. He seemed to know everything about us Avengers. Let's temporarily refer to him as the Green Goblin.
Green Goblin caused intense explosions both during his entrance and his escape today. On one hand, this was to divert our attention, obscure our vision, and declare war on us. On the other hand, I believe he aimed to neutralize Wanda's abilities, preventing himself from being controlled by telekinesis.
Furthermore, his position outside the building was chosen with precision, just beyond the range of Wanda and Quicksilver's ability. Clearly, his location was meticulously calculated.
He mentioned enduring suffering in Seoul, implying he was a victim of the previous battle in Seoul. This time, it's evident he came for revenge against us.
However, perhaps fearing our united strength, he didn't fully believe he could secure victory and thus fled immediately after declaring war."
Through careful analysis of the Green Goblin's behavior and words, Captain America deduced these conclusions with meticulous logic.
Tony also nodded in agreement, adding, "That's why when the Wakandan prince carried the king's body away, he made no move, merely staring us down. His target is clearly us.
But this Green Goblin is no ordinary foe. The materials used in his armor are the same special ballistic metals found in armored military vehicles.
Though the glider wings he used are outdated products for me and Mark, still mastering such technology is beyond the reach of an average person."
In addition, the pumpkin bomb he threw at us in the end, capable of generating such a powerful explosion with such a small amount of explosive material, indicates that the Green Goblin undoubtedly has connections to arms trade."
After listening to Tony's words, Mark, who had been silent, also nodded secretly. As a reincarnator, Mark knew that, barring any unexpected developments, the true identity of the Green Goblin should be Norman Osborn, the founder of Osborn Group, which indeed has extensive arms dealings.
However, what puzzled Mark was that while he had long been aware of the presence of the Osborn Group in this world and had business dealings with them during his research on the mutated spider, and that the Green Goblin was indeed a character in Marvel. But in the original storyline of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this character didn't exist at all due to copyright issues.
"But since I, as a reincarnator, have already made an unexpected entrance, and given that this universe also has Spider-Man, it's not that surprising that another character like the Green Goblin exists...
However, I need to figure out whether this Green Goblin is truly who I think he is! Baymax, help me search for Norman Osborn's location. I need to confirm where he currently is."
"Understood, Master."
