The Avengers were somewhat surprised by T'Challa's words, which indicated that this young prince of Wakanda possessed considerable strength of his own.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to corner the Green Goblin, who possessed numerous high-tech gadgets.
"You don't need to worry about me. Those born in Wakanda undergo rigorous combat training from a young age. I have absolute confidence in being able to protect myself!" T'Challa knew what the others were thinking as they looked at him, so he explained.
"If you're simply looking to know the real identity of the Green Goblin, then it would not be a problem. While I can't directly intervene to help you, I can provide you with some information.
Not long ago, I had Baymax analyze and deduce the Green Goblin's identity, uncovering the true person beneath the mask.
Coupled with your pursuit, which led to the Green Goblin's fall and forced him to abandon his hidden identity to blend into the crowd, I further confirmed the accuracy of the result."
Seeing T'Challa's determined demeanor in pursuing his goal, Mark decided to offer some assistance to his new friend and future comrade.
"Who is it? Tell me who he is!" Upon hearing Mark's words, T'Challa excitedly took a quick step forward, gripping Mark's shoulders tightly and shaking him frantically as he asked.
"Take a moment to calm down, Your Highness T'Challa. Mark won't be able to answer your question when you're in this state!" Scarlet Witch, noticing T'Challa's excessive excitement, quickly used her mind control abilities to help him regain his composure.
"Apologies, Mark. I was just too anxious to know the true identity of the culprit," T'Challa said with a hint of remorse after calming down.
"It's alright, I understand your current feelings. The real identity of the Green Goblin is Norman Osborn, the founder and CEO of Osborn Industries.
Osborn Industries has been secretly cooperating with high-ranking military officials, investing significant research and development funds each year into the production of individual combat armor and maneuverable gliders.
The equipment recently worn by the Green Goblin, along with some other weapons, are likely the results of this research.
In addition, there's something very important. I had Baymax infiltrate Osborn Industries' top-secret research laboratory servers, and we found some research data related to the Super Soldier Serum.
It seems the military has never given up on replicating the Super Soldier Serum, and Osborn Industries is one of the collaborating organizations.
From these research materials, it's evident that Osborn Industries has made breakthroughs in enhancing the effects of the Super Soldier Serum.
Their experiments on mice showed various degrees of physical enhancement after receiving the serum, with indicator data reaching theoretical biological limits.
However, there's been a persistent problem hindering Osborn Industries from advancing the research further into clinical trials: the effects of the Super Soldier Serum go beyond just the physical aspects, extending to mental effects as well.
The modified mice exhibited significant increases in wildness and aggression, often falling into uncontrollable states of extreme violence.
Given Norman Osborn's recent mental state, he likely used an unfinished prototype of the Super Soldier Serum, which is why he had the physical capabilities to stabilize the glider.
So, if you intend to confront him, you must be cautious of the enhanced physical attributes he gained from the serum, and be aware that he might engage in extremely reckless and dangerous actions."
"Thank you for the information, Mark. I'll remember this favor, and if there's ever anything you need that I can repay in the future when you come to Wakanda, I won't refuse. Farewell for now!"
Having obtained the answers he sought, T'Challa thanked Mark and made a promise before leaving the scene.
Watching T'Challa's departing figure, a concerned Mark discreetly approached Captain to communicate, "Should we have Bucky follow him outside, just in case anything happens to T'Challa?"
Captain and Mark exchanged a glance, then Captain nodded subtly to signal agreement with Mark's suggestion.
Subsequently, Mark directly contacted Baymax, instructing him to send task information and T'Challa's appearance to the Winter Soldier, Bucky.
...
Just as the Avengers were constrained by the "Seoul Accords" and unable to take any action, T'Challa was still at the location of Norman Osborn's final position.
Having successfully escaped, the Green Goblin was now in a rural farmhouse on the outskirts of Vienna. This farm had been discreetly acquired under a false identity.
Prior to his recent actions, he had made various preparations here, transforming the location into his secret base and armory.
Moreover, within this farmhouse, he wasn't the only presence at the moment.
Inside a barn that had been repurposed into an armory, five cryogenic pods were currently arranged. Within these pods were four men and one woman, all robustly built soldiers.
Affected by the ultra-low temperature maintained by the liquid nitrogen, these five individuals were currently in a state of deep hibernation, their metabolism reduced to an almost negligible level.
If it weren't for the LCD screens on the cryogenic pods indicating their health status, it would be nearly impossible to discern any difference between them and the deceased.
In reality, if normal individuals were frozen alive in such ultra-low temperatures, they would likely suffer severe tissue frostbite and necrosis, even if they didn't freeze to death.
However, these individuals appeared remarkably healthy despite their lack of coloration, which is a result of their bodies undergoing special modifications prior to entering ultra-low temperature hibernation.
Their naturally low metabolism and powerful physiques ensured their survival in this environment without succumbing to death.
And if Bucky were to see them now, he would likely recognize their true identities instantly.
These five individuals were the five perfected killing machines that Hydra had successfully recreated after him – the Winter Soldiers.
Following their modifications and brainwashing, these five Winter Soldiers had been kept dormant in Hydra's Siberian base, never deployed until now, when they suddenly found themselves in the possession of the Green Goblin.
