Bang!

Klaw’s eyes widened. A thin line of blood split across his forehead, and his body toppled stiffly to the ground.

Rowan cast a glance at the corpse, then, with a mere thought, a flying blade swept across Klaw’s neck, severing his head cleanly.

From the very beginning, Rowan had never intended to let him live.

After the Ivan Vanko incident, Rowan realized he could never show mercy to villains. If he allowed these lawless men to linger, one day they might threaten the lives of those close to him, and by then, regret would be meaningless.

With a flicker of thought, Rowan crushed a nearby sheet of iron into the shape of a box and placed Klaw’s severed head inside.

That head would serve as a backup key to enter Wakanda.

Next, Rowan manipulated a large iron drum, placing both the Vibranium and the iron box containing Klaw’s head inside. Then, with a surge of mental force, he lifted the drum into the sky and flew off.

Vibranium was far too valuable to risk shipping. He didn’t own a private jet, so the only way was to carry it himself.

Flying during the day still had its moments of novelty. But soaring above the clouds at night, especially on a transcontinental journey, grew dull quickly. Rowan found himself restless and bored.

If only I had an intelligent fighter jet, he thought.

It was no wonder Luo Feng later spent precious “star points” to exchange for one.

Even though a spiritual telekinetic could manage long-distance flight, the monotony and sheer waste of time were unbearable.

Once I take Wakanda, I’ll make sure they forge me a custom-built aircraft.

That thought lingered in his mind as he continued through the night sky.

After nearly seven or eight hours of flight, around one in the morning, Rowan finally reached New York.

He deposited the Vibranium safely in his office. Instead of returning to his S.H.I.E.L.D. apartment, he went straight to his private lounge and caught a few hours of sleep.

By a little after eight in the morning, he messaged Sharon and Helen Cho, asking them to come to his office.

Before long, Sharon arrived with Helen in tow.

“Boss, you wanted to see us?” Sharon asked curiously. Rowan rarely summoned the two of them together.

Rowan nodded. With a wave of his hand, cylindrical containers filled with raw Vibranium floated out of the iron drum and into the air before them.

Both Sharon and Helen already knew Rowan possessed telekinetic powers, so the sight of objects levitating no longer shocked them. Their attention was drawn entirely to the luminous, mysterious ore glimmering inside the containers.

“What is this?”

Sharon reached out and caught one of the containers, examining the strange and dazzling minerals within. Despite her wide experience, she had never seen anything quite like it.

Helen also caught hold of a container. Her expression shifted as she studied the ore, her eyes betraying recognition.

Rowan noticed. “Helen, it looks like you know something.”

“Boss… this… it looks like Vibranium,” Helen said uncertainly.

She had only ever seen a blurry photo of a tiny fragment of the metal, so she wasn’t completely sure.

“Vibranium? Helen, you must be mistaken. How could this possibly be Vibranium?” Sharon shook her head, glancing at the nearly twenty cylinders of glowing blue ore floating in the air.

If this really were Vibranium, it would shock the entire world.

“You’re not mistaken. This is Vibranium,” Rowan said with a calm smile.

“What?”

Sharon’s eyes widened in disbelief.

As Peggy Carter’s niece, she had grown up hearing stories of Captain America and the legendary shield forged from Vibranium. She knew better than anyone how rare and priceless it was.

And now, before her, sat a stockpile of it… enough to cause nations to tremble.

She swallowed hard.

Helen, too, was stunned. She had guessed correctly, but even so, the reality left her shaken.

Vibranium was the most advanced material on Earth far beyond even the Cro Alloy her company produced.

Where had her boss possibly gotten so much of it?

“This is all Vibranium,” Rowan confirmed. “Helen, I called you here because I have a task for you.”

“A task?” Helen glanced from the Vibranium back to Rowan, her mind already piecing together what he might mean.

Rowan nodded. “I need you to help me forge a suit of Vibranium armor.”

As he spoke, he pulled a rolled blueprint from his drawer and, with a flick of his mind, floated it over to Helen. It was the design for a sleek, modern suit of combat armor based on the battle suit from the Swallowed Star world.

Helen took the blueprint, her eyes widening as she studied it. The design was striking an elegant, powerful suit that was clearly tailored to Rowan himself.

“Boss… you really mean to forge this entirely from Vibranium?” she asked, her voice dry.

On the black market, Vibranium currently sold for ten million dollars per gram.

This suit would require at least fifty kilograms.

The cost would be astronomical extravagant beyond comprehension.

Rowan shook his head slightly. “Vibranium will serve as the primary material. But try incorporating Cro Alloy. See if you can create a new hybrid metal with even greater properties.”

After all, Adamantium had been forged by combining Vibranium with other rare elements. In some aspects, Adamantium surpassed Vibranium itself.

If Cro Alloy could merge with Vibranium successfully, the result might be even stronger.

And since the company’s warehouse still held a precious Grade-9 Cro Alloy sample, Helen would have the chance to experiment.

“Understood,” Helen nodded firmly.

“Sharon, arrange to have the remaining Vibranium stored in the vault,” Rowan added.

“Got it.”

After issuing his instructions, Rowan departed for the Swallowed Star world to resume training.

Before beginning, he ordered himself a nutritious breakfast.

He was no longer short on money. Since the training camp meals enhanced cultivation efficiency while also being delicious, he wouldn’t dream of missing out.

The Elite Training Camp’s dining hall employed the finest chefs from around the globe and used the rarest ingredients on Earth. Every dish was unforgettable, even breakfast crafted with meticulous care.

After finishing, Rowan began practicing the body technique Streamlight, which accompanied the Ninefold Thunder Blade.

Just two days ago, he had pushed the Ninefold Thunder Blade to its second stage, achieving 1.4 times explosive force.

Now, he attempted to extend that 1.4 multiplier to his legs.

If successful, his speed would skyrocket.

By midday, he had succeeded in channeling the amplified force through his legs. At the same time, he grew increasingly familiar with the intricate footwork of the Streamlight technique.

A quick test with the bullet-dodging simulator confirmed his progress. He could now flawlessly pass the third difficulty level and even handle the fourth to some extent.

That meant his movement technique was only a step away from reaching the basic mastery stage.

In the afternoon, Rowan turned his focus to the Thunderclap Draw Slash.

He had begun integrating his psychic power into the technique.

Even at this early stage, the power of the slash had increased nearly fivefold.

The boost was staggering, but only because his psychic strength vastly outstripped his physical strength. Once his martial level caught up, the gains would be less dramatic.

According to the technique’s creator, when a warrior’s physical strength matched their psychic power, merging the two could roughly quadruple the force of a slash.

By evening, Rowan attempted to fuse the Ninefold Thunder Blade’s explosive-force method with the Thunderclap Draw Slash.

Unfortunately, managing both simultaneously proved too difficult too many factors to control.

Still, Rowan believed that once he perfected both techniques to the point of muscle memory, he would eventually succeed in combining them.
