Although Oaks was frustrated with King T'Challa's incredible money superpower, he immediately returned to Avalon after coming back.
The central area of Avalon had now been built around the Sacred Oak, with various facilities forming a massive supercity.
Half of the buildings here were specialized laboratories for different purposes, where researchers from Oaktree Environmental Technology Company conducted various studies and research in different fields.
The headquarters of the Benevolence Society occupied the other half, creating a vibrant living atmosphere with recreational and dining areas, among others.
Spider-Man had successfully passed the assessment. With Ned's "technical support," he first disrupted the target's trade and then investigated the location of the mastermind behind it, gaining knowledge of their next move.
He then single-handedly captured Adrian Toomes, also known as the "Vulture," and his criminal gang, who were secretly stealing from Damage Control Bureau's high-tech supplies. Additionally, he obtained powerful and lethal weapons in the process.
Moreover, he kept in mind the principles of the Benevolence Society, avoiding causing severe damage or harm to innocent individuals.
However, what frustrated him was that Mr. Adrian Toomes was the father of Liz Toomes, the girl he had a crush on. Due to these events, Liz and her family had to move away, and Peter's secret love came to an end.
Having passed the assessment, he successfully gained entry into Avalon as an advanced researcher for both the Avengers and Oaktree Environmental Technology Company.
Now, he was captivated by the wonders of Avalon, gradually forgetting these emotional trivialities while exploring the place.
There was a considerable distance between the Sacred Oak and the building complex, which formed a circular isolation zone that was twice the size of the entire building area.
This isolation zone was the absolute defense area of the Sacred Oak, where Malorn could unleash his full power.
Each building situated within this area was of utmost importance.
Among these laboratories, one stood second only to the Gaia Mirror Data Center: Oaks' cutting-edge biotechnology laboratory.
Inside, there was an improved Regeneration Cradle device specifically designed by Dr. Cho Helen to adapt to Oaks' plant cell nanomaterials.
Malorn had already learned how to use it, and with his learning capabilities, he had essentially mastered this technology.
"Brother, is this metal... the legendary Vibranium?"
Malorn's Soul projection appeared beside Oaks, looking curiously at the pile of metal ingots emitting a strange light.
"It looks different from Captain America's shield, doesn't it?"
"He painted that one."
Oaks touched his nose and picked up a metal ingot, tossing it up and down, and marveled:
"The richest mineral on Earth is worth so much. Look, this is Vibranium worth five billion dollars... and that's just the theoretical value.
When Klaue died, all the Vibranium he had was confiscated by Wakanda. Now, without Wakanda's authorization, you can't even buy these with a hundred billion dollars."
That's what they call priceless.
"So, what do you plan to do with this Vibranium?"
A screen appeared in front of Malorn, displaying a long list of known uses for Vibranium.
"Are you going to help Mr. Stark upgrade his armor? Or help Dr. Banner create a melee weapon? You mentioned before that if Hulk had brass knuckles, it would be terrifying...
Are you planning to coat Hercules? But it's already coated with Uru metal. Are you planning to research an alloy of Uru and Vibranium?"
"No, no, no... Malorn, in Wakanda, countless uses for Vibranium have already been developed. Its stable molecular structure can be applied to various things, from energy cores to medical technology, and more."
Oaks waved his finger with a mysterious look on his face:
"On this point, I agree with that guy's complaint. The most versatile material on Earth is being used to make frisbees... its value is so much more."
He rubbed his chin for a moment before asking, word by word:
"Malorn, do you... want to have a true body that can move freely permanently?"
"A true body that can move freely permanently?"
Malorn's eyes widened.
"But, brother, if my body is made with Vibranium, won't I become a robot?"
Although Malorn could use plant fibers to create avatars at will, these avatars have no combat capabilities and don't last long. Once used, he would simply discard them.
Malorn could have made robots a long time ago; any soldier from an Iron Legion could have housed Malorn's consciousness as a temporary avatar.
But in reality, Malorn didn't like the idea of a cold, mechanical body.
As a demigod of nature, he had no affinity for a physique isolated from nature. With a mechanical body, he wouldn't even be able to perform Nature magic.
"An ordinary mechanical body won't do... but it's different with Vibranium."
Oaks tapped the Regeneration Cradle device next to him. Originally, it could only generate tissues and couldn't create a living body.
However, Oaks' magical plant cell nanomaterials made it possible.
But even with this, the body would still be fragile.
However, what if Vibranium were added to the equation? That would be entirely different.
Vibranium molecules could not only coexist with cells but also integrate with them.
What if it were infused into the magic plant nanomaterial cells that could already carry life force and consciousness?
"This is... beyond words!"
Malorn personally took charge and tested the combination of Vibranium and the magic plant nanomaterial cells.
"Brother, it's really working... After combining with the cells, Vibranium no longer hinders the transmission of magic power. Although it looks like a cold mechanical body, it is, in fact, a true living entity, a Vibranium-based life form!"
He stared intently at the screen and watched the molecular-level fusion of Vibranium and nanomaterial cells, filled with excitement.
"So, if we use this method to create a body, I can still use nature magic and have a powerful Vibranium-infused body... Brother, you're truly a genius!"
"...I guess so."
Oaks scratched his nose, wondering if he was standing on the shoulders of giants.
"Then, Malorn, what do you want your human form to look like?"
Oaks thought of this important question.
"You can design your own face. Do you prefer an Eastern or Western look? But I think it's best if you don't go for a red face..."
"Well..."
Malorn seemed caught off guard by this question and took a moment to gather his thoughts.
"I think... my current form is good enough."
Malorn's answer surprised Oaks; it was somewhat unexpected.
"Although a freely moving body doesn't have to be limited to humans, if you maintain the form of a stag, it might be inconvenient to interact in human society."
"It's okay. I'll stick with the stag form. It's fine like this."
Malorn reaffirmed his decision and began creating a template for his new body based on his current soul projection form.
"Besides, a handsome stag like me has never existed in the world. It will definitely be popular."
"...It feels like a figurine."
"..."
However, just as Oaks and Malorn were finalizing the plan for creating this brand-new Vibranium Stag, a special signal came through.
"Hmm? Why is this guy showing up now?"
Oaks looked at the annoying bald image on the incoming signal and rubbed his chin.
"Hasn't this guy been missing for a long time?"
"Director Fury from S.H.I.E.L.D., well, former director. In fact, he has maintained a direct line of communication with Agent Barton, and it's the same with Coulson."
Malorn continued fine-tuning his "incarnation." With his computational power and monitoring abilities, he couldn't be kept in the dark about Nick Fury and Barton's contact, but he didn't know the content of their communications.
They mainly used old-fashioned agent methods—various peculiar codes and information transmission channels.
"Barton and Coulson, huh... So, he still has knowledge of the movements and crucial information about the Avengers and the new S.H.I.E.L.D. But why does he want to reach out to me again?"
Oaks snorted.
"Malorn, don't you think this is a complete reversal of the situation I faced back then?"
"It's more than that, brother—right now, he's not even daring to show his face."
"You're right. You take care of the rest. I'll go and meet him."
Oaks chuckled and walked out of the laboratory.
"After all, this guy's power is still significant."
"..."
Malorn watched Oaks leave the room and disappear into Avalon. He shook his head and refocused his attention on the design interface.
"This chamber was originally designed for humans... Just this pair of antlers alone seems too big."
He felt a bit troubled as he looked at the design interface, specifically at the beautiful large antlers on his head.
"And how can I make Vibranium feel like fur... I don't want to look as smooth as the Bronze Bull. I don't want to look like a figurine."
Malorn thought for a while and sighed helplessly.
"It seems that when it comes to creative thinking, humans are better at it."
Then, he suddenly paused, and his eyes gradually brightened.
"Oh, there's a creative little guy here... Maybe I can ask him for help? But it's highly classified, so I should be more tactful..."
As Peter Parker strolled through the food street in the Benevolence Society area of Avalon, enjoying snacks, he suddenly received a message from Malorn.
"Research topic: Provide a practical and feasible solution. Upon Successful validation you will receive Malorn's blessing."
"Topic 1: How to fit an elephant into a refrigerator, step by step..."
"Topic 2: How to create a stainless steel plush teddy bear..."
Spider-Man: "???"
