Chapter 140 Child, I can support you to be a king!
After Leo's words, little Eric recalled the hard life of the past few months and thought of his deceased father.
Full of grief, he squatted on the wet ground with his knees in his arms, lowered his head and remained silent.
When his father was still alive, he would often tell Eric stories about his hometown. Eric liked hearing stories about Wakanda very much and had always been filled with many beautiful fantasies about Wakanda.
But now the illusion has been shattered, because someone from Wakanda suddenly came and killed his father a few months ago.
Not only did the beautiful hometown in his imagination no longer exist, Eric also lost his warm little home.
Without his father to rely on, little Eric has been alone and miserable these past few months.
But he persevered tenaciously because he wanted to avenge his father, seek justice for his father, and realize the dream that his father had always pursued.
For this reason, he is willing to seize every opportunity.
Little Eric's original plan was to study hard first and then apply for military school or simply join the army.
After he has developed a skill and even gained his own power, he will return to Wakanda to find the glory that should belong to himself and his father.
But now he met Leo, a man who claimed to be his father's ally, and who seemed to be quite credible.
More importantly, this Leo looks very powerful, very powerful!
"Uncle Erwin."
Eric reluctantly gave Leo a title,
"Can I ask you something?"
"Call sir." Leo didn't want to be his uncle, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Erwin, you...can you help me take revenge? Go kill the Black Panther."
Little Eric looked up at Leo, his eyes full of prayer.
But what Leo saw in Eric's eyes as a child was full of hatred and murderous intent:
"No! I can't help you."
Little Eric is too whimsical and still thinks about things in a child's way of thinking.
Leo had thousands of legitimate reasons to reject him, and he could even scold him from hundreds of angles.
But little Eric probably can't understand this now, and Leo doesn't want him to hear it either.
In the end, Leo just shook his head and said:
"Wakanda is a country with its own laws and systems. I am not a Wakandan and I cannot get involved.
But you are different, Eric, you are a Wakandan, you have the right to seek justice for your father, and you also have the right to decide the future of Wakanda.
You are the child of Prince Enjob and have royal blood, and you even have the right to become the king of Wakanda."
Although little Eric was a little weak in dealing with people, his wisdom was not bad at all, and he understood the meaning of Leo's words instantly:
"Mr. Erwin, do you mean that you will help me sit on the throne?"
Leo nodded and started telling lies with his eyes open:
"The original plan between me and your father was that I would help him build momentum in the outside world and help him ascend to the throne, so that he could better carry out his revenge.
But now that your father is dead, this matter can only fall on you."
Leo's eyes were full of expectation, mixed with encouragement, and he looked at little Eric and said,
"Are you willing to fulfill your father's last wish and become the next Black Panther?"
Children are easy to deceive, and Leo's words seemed to have already made Eric's heart surge with excitement.
Little Eric jumped up from the ground, clenched his fists, and shouted: "I do."
But what Leo saw in his eyes was hatred.
Eric didn't understand anything, and he didn't ask Leo why he did this. The reason why he was willing to agree to Leo was more because he wanted to avenge his father.
Leo touched little Eric's head again and whispered:
"Little Eric, your father is an admirable man, and I hope your future achievements will be comparable to his.
Based on the previous transaction terms between your father and I, as long as you promise to provide me with vibranium in the future, I am willing to help you fight for the throne.
But I hope you will remember one sentence: if you want to be a qualified king, what you need in your heart is kindness rather than hatred."
Little Eric glanced at Leo with a vague understanding, not sure if he listened to the advice.
But he knew that he needed to make a guarantee at this time, so he looked directly into Leo's eyes and said like a little adult:
"As long as I become the king of Wakanda in the future, Mr. Erwin, you can have as much vibranium as you want."
Leo smiled and rubbed Little Eric's head again, so that he and Little Eric had reached an agreement:
"Eric, my base is in New York. Just follow Green Fist downstairs and let him take you to New York. When the time is right, I will take you back to Wakanda."
Little Eric nodded noncommittally, and Leo led him and handed him over to Green Fist who was waiting downstairs.
After Leo gave Green Fist a few instructions, he asked Green Fist to take Eric home to pack his things. After packing, Green Fist would drive Eric back to New York without stopping.
Leo watched Eric and Green Fist enter the door, then turned back to the rooftop.
It was still raining in the sky, and it was getting heavier and heavier. There were puddles on the rooftop. The raindrops hit the puddles and the water splashed everywhere.
In such a heavy rain, Leo didn't dare to get wet too much, otherwise he would be soaked all over in a short while.
He quickly took a few steps forward, summoned his mechanical strength, and put on the Viper 5th generation armor.
The vibranium defense rune was activated, and a light blue transparent protective shield appeared, instantly draining the rainwater from the surface of the armor.
The anti-gravity pulse exploded and ignited. Leo raised his head slightly, and with a soft bang, the armor flew into the sky.
After rising to an altitude of two thousand meters, the thick clouds were finally thrown away by Leo's feet. He saw the clear sky again, and he felt a little happier unconsciously.
The altitude continued to climb, reaching the constant temperature layer at an altitude of 10,000 meters. At this time, the automatic flight chip took over the flight mission.
While Leo was swimming backstroke in the sky, he was thinking about how to place little Eric after returning to New York.
The earnest conversation and persuasion just now made even Leo himself almost believe it.
What allies, what rights, what ideals and glory...
Anyway, Njobu is dead, and there is no evidence of his death, so Leo Aoi can make up whatever he wants.
But Leo is not lying. If possible, he really wants to support Eric as the king of Wakanda.
What was Leo's original purpose in finding Eric? It was vibranium!
If Eric finally becomes the King of Wakanda, Black Panther, then as his only supporter, Leo will naturally be able to obtain inexhaustible vibranium.
After reviewing what he just said in his mind, Leo felt that it was quite reasonable and there were basically no logical loopholes.
After bringing Eric back to New York, Leo should be able to completely eliminate his wariness if he gets more familiar with him.
After all, he was still a child less than ten years old, and was well protected by his father, so he didn't have much care at all.
In fact, Leo also thought about how to brainwash Eric and train him like an agent from an early age so that he would be absolutely loyal in the future and could be saved once and for all.
But who knows if Wakanda has black technology that can detect brainwashing?!
If the secret is revealed in the end, Leo will end up being fishy after stealing the fish.
So Leo might as well be Njobu's "ally" and train Eric seriously!
For example, you can find a good school for Eric to study, so that he can grow healthy, physically and mentally harmoniously, and make basic preparations for becoming a good king in the future.
Furthermore, Leo felt that Bucky could also enrich Eric's extracurricular life and let him learn fighting skills from an early age.
When he grows up in the future, if you find a suitable time, you can take him to Wakanda for a tour, and then follow Wakanda's tradition to challenge for the throne. Isn't it easy to win?!
Thinking of this, Leo suddenly felt that there was a lot of vibranium waving to him in the future, and his face unconsciously smiled into a flower.
