Chapter 156 Welcome to the Extraordinary World
"Mr. President, Excellencies: I have the honor to address you for the first time as a representative of the Eternal Parliament."

Lorraine spoke slowly, and her voice reached the ears of every representative.

Apart from Lorraine's voice, there was only the sound of rustling pages turning in the venue.

In a meeting of this caliber, there is no improvisation.

All speeches represent one's own position and must be prepared in advance.

Lorraine's speech has been translated into countless language versions and distributed to representatives of various countries.

They looked at Lorraine's speech carefully and scrutinized it word for word.

What is the profound meaning behind these words?
“From the first sprouts of life underwater, to the giant beasts of the Stone Age, to the first time humans walked upright, life has been through a lot.

“And now, the world is opening up to a whole new world of people.”

Countless people are paying attention to this speech on the official website of the United Nations.

The current changes in the world have left them confused and fearful. They need guidance and confidence as to how the future will go.

And now, Lorraine is telling them that you should not be confused.

Countless predecessors have explored this path for them.

“The Eternal Parliament was founded 5000 years ago by human ancestors with the mission of protecting the world.

“We are always with you as civilization develops.

"The extraordinary world is not scary, and superpowers are not uncontrollable. The newly emerged superpowers are not aliens, they are just a human group, the first step towards becoming extraordinary."

Lorraine did not use the term mutant.

Just define them as humans with superpowers.

The point is, they're still human.

Lorraine's speech was also addressed to the hundreds of thousands of mutants.

At this critical moment, they were terrified, not knowing why their bodies had changed like this, and not knowing where they were going.

But now, Lorraine is like a giant, holding up the collapsing world for them.

He gently told these people: "There is no need to be afraid, there is no difference between you and humans."

Lorraine's speech continued.

"Superpowers are talents that everyone has. Mr. Steve Rogers next to me was once just an ordinary guy in Brooklyn, but now he has also gained extraordinary powers.

"He can do it, and so can you.

“No need to fear, no need to be confused, no need to worry.

“The Eternal Parliament and civilization have been together for thousands of years, and have experienced countless setbacks and difficulties together, and we have all come through.

“This time, the Eternal Parliament will still be with mankind and adapt to this new era together.

"Fellow compatriots, welcome to the extraordinary world!"

Lorraine put down the microphone, and the audience burst into thunderous applause.

What he just said is a shot in the arm for mankind.

So what if mutants appear? You can also get the power they can get.

So what if the future is confusing, the Eternal Parliament has witnessed that human civilization has gone through thousands of years, and life will always find a way out.

Lorraine hasn't paid attention to her system for a long time, but the surge of positive emotions at this time is really hard to ignore.

His speech directly caused the positive emotions to skyrocket by two orders of magnitude.

Lorraine smiled and said to Steve: "I shouldn't have been stuck just now, right?"

“There is no better speech than this!”

Steve clapped his hands and said, "From today on, those mutants will probably recognize no one except you."

"This is just a false name, not what I pursue."

Lorraine looked at the United Nations logo representing the earth in the center of the auditorium.

"I always just want this world to be filled with love and peace."

Steve nodded. Of all the people he had ever met, there was no one like Lorraine who always gave to humanity without asking for anything in return.

“After you speak today, your life may never be the same,” he cautioned.

"Don't worry, it won't affect me too much. I won't speak in public all day like Tony. At most, I won't be able to go to school anymore."

He stayed in the Holy of Holies every day, and it didn't matter whether he went to school or not.

Apart from Gwen and Peter, he had no ties to the school.

He has already dealt with his relationship with Gwen.

As for Peter, I’m afraid Lorraine won’t be able to get rid of this guy even if he goes to the ends of the earth.

A new era has arrived, and your identity will also be adjusted.

This is a necessary step.

The meeting continued, and other influential countries in the world spoke one after another, expressing their attitudes towards mutants.

Their manuscripts were written in advance, but the state of their speeches was obviously influenced by Lorraine.

There is no longer the feeling of being in front of a powerful enemy, but he feels much calmer.

Lorraine gave humanity the most important thing at this most critical moment.

hope.

……

The first day of meetings is over.

The overall affairs are progressing in a positive direction, and people's hearts are becoming more and more stable.

No longer panicking, even looking forward to it.

What will the extraordinary society of the future look like?

As soon as the meeting ended, Lorraine was surrounded by delegations from various countries. They had many questions that they expected Lorraine to answer.

"I'm sorry everyone, I need to rest now!"

After squeezing out of the crowd and returning to the lounge, Lorraine breathed a sigh of relief.

Too much enthusiasm can easily overwhelm people.

But even in the lounge, Lorraine couldn't completely relax.

There are many invitations placed on the table in front of me.

Representatives from various countries invited Lorraine to dinner.

"These guys are so efficient."

Lorraine knew exactly what these people wanted to know.

Since the extraordinary world is open to human society, how exactly is it open?

Everyone wants to get some information from Lorraine.

Steve said, "Look, I told you your life was going to change forever."

"When I return to the Holy of Holies, I won't need to worry about this anymore."

Lorraine looked through the invitations casually, and suddenly his attention was attracted by a country.

Wakanda.

Did they invite themselves to dinner too?
Lorraine suddenly asked: "Who is the representative of Wakanda this time?"

Steve was still a little confused when he suddenly heard the name Wakanda.

This seems to be a small African country. Why would Lorraine be interested in them?
He looked at the list of participants and said: "Wakanda is a monarchy, and the representative attending the meeting this time is their prince T'Challa."

T'Challa?That's Black Panther.Oh no, Lorraine quickly corrected herself.

Now the old king of Wakanda has not died, and the old king T'Chaka is the contemporary Black Panther.

The title of Black Panther is hereditary and permanently bound to it, even in death.

During the succession ceremony, the previous Black Panthers would enter the soul world and meet all their ancestors after drinking the potion prepared by the heart-shaped grass.

This ability is not shown in the movie. When Black Panther enters the soul world, the most he can do is see his father's soul.

Lorraine suddenly said: "I want to talk to the representatives of Wakanda."

Steve was a little confused. With so many invitations from representatives of countries, why did Lorraine finally choose a small African country?
Lorraine smiled and said: "Don't think too much, I'm just very interested in Wakanda."

He was really interested.

Whether it's the soul world of Wakanda or the Black Panther God who protects them.

At dinner time, Lorraine and Steve came to a luxury hotel.

T'Challa has already been waiting at the door. He has not yet become a Black Panther, let alone a king. When facing Lorraine, he will inevitably show some immaturity in dealing with things.

"Hello, Mr. Lorraine!"

T'Challa first greeted him in English, but soon realized something was wrong and switched to Chinese.

"Prince T'Challa, you speak Chinese very well!"

Lorraine instead responded to T'Challa in Wakandan.

It doesn’t cost much positive emotions to redeem a language from the system.

But Lorraine's expression of kindness surprised T'Challa.

He couldn't help but say: "You speak Wakandan?"

“Learning the languages ​​and cultures of different places is something I enjoy very much.”

They walked into the hotel together, and several black women with strong figures and sinister faces were guarding the door of the private room.

T'Challa proudly introduced: "This is our country's Dora female guard. They are all first-class warriors!"

Lorraine nodded, they are indeed good warriors.

The kind that can remove the Winter Soldier's arm in two or three strokes.

After entering the box and taking their seats, T'Challa took the initiative and said: "Sir Lorraine, thank you very much for accepting Wakanda's invitation this time and agreeing to have dinner with me. After all, I also know that Wakanda is not an influential person. A powerful country!”

"But you did it on purpose, didn't you?"

Lorraine pointed this out straight to the point without being polite.

"If you are willing to show your technology, I believe the United States will love peace more."

T'Challa's pupils shrank for a moment, then quickly returned to normal.

This heir to the Eternal Parliament seems to be indeed genuine.

What he just said actually had a hint of temptation in it.

If the Eternal Council, which has protected the world for thousands of years, doesn't even know the details of Wakanda, it would be a bit unreasonable.

In fact, he was interested in Lorraine, so why not Lorraine?

Wakanda is an extremely divided society, where advanced and backward coexist.

They have powerful technology, but are unwilling to abandon backward weapon forms and tactical methods.

They had medical technology that could conquer cancer, but in the end T'Challa died of a terminal illness.

They were obsessed with the blood and tears of black people in the past, but they did nothing when the triangular trade occurred.

It’s hard not to be curious about a country so torn apart.

Lorraine always wondered whether there was a special force influencing it that led to such a result.

"As expected of the Eternal Parliament!"

T'Challa didn't know what Lorraine was thinking, and he admitted directly, "It seems you know Wakanda very well."

"Otherwise I wouldn't have come to see you."

Lorraine smiled and said, "You have cutting-edge technology and magical power. This is no secret in your country. In this extraordinary era, mankind needs your experience and guidance."

T'Challa understood what Lorraine meant.

Is he trying to persuade Wakanda to reveal its existence to the world?
"I'm sorry, Lord Lorraine, I'm not qualified to answer this kind of question."

T'Challa smiled bitterly and said, "Only my father, the current Black King of Wakanda, can make this decision."

Lorraine could see that T'Challa himself had some intentions towards his proposal.

In the movie, he did make such a decision in the end.

But now he has no decision-making power and can only convey Lorraine's opinions.

"It's okay, I can have a chat with your Majesty the King."

Lorraine said indifferently, "If I go to Wakanda, you won't welcome me, right?"

"How could it be!" T'Challa said quickly, "If you can come, of course we will use the highest standard welcome ceremony! The contribution of the Eternal Parliament to mankind is indelible!"

In fact, T'Challa vaguely felt that Wakanda was not even qualified to compete with the Eternal Parliament.

It is also a hidden existence, Wakanda has advanced technology, and the Eternal Parliament has magical power.

But for these thousands of years, the Eternal Parliament has been silently protecting mankind and fighting against evil forces. Its members have sacrificed one after another, so that now, only the last descendant remains.

But what about Wakanda?
To say it is secluded means to be truly isolated from the world.

They are indifferent to changes in the outside world and only guard their own one-third of an acre of land.

He has made no contribution to anything in the world.

To put it bluntly, it doesn’t matter whether there is a country like Wakanda in the world or not!
The young and energetic T'Challa has been saddened by this phenomenon for a long time.

He wanted to change, but his father wouldn't listen to any of his opinions.

The old king always stared at T'Challa with a meaningful look and said, "When you get to my position, you will naturally understand everything."

understand what?
T'Challa was dismissive of these words. Could it be that he had revealed the truth about Wakanda and would die because of it?

Lorraine said at this time: "That's good. I actually wanted to go to Wakanda to see it a long time ago, but I always felt that visiting rashly would cause you to misunderstand, so I never took any action."

"Wakanda always welcomes you, our distinguished guest!"

T'Challa immediately said, "As long as you inform us in advance, we are willing to send a special plane to pick you up!"

Lorraine smiled and shook his head: "That's not necessary. I just hope that the way I appear will not scare you!"

This dinner was a great time for both the guests and the host.

Lorraine and Steve returned to the Holy of Holies.

Steve was finally able to say what he had been holding back for a long time.

"Lorraine, I can't understand why Wakanda would make such a decision?"

Is isolation good to them?

To show that you love peace?

This is not right. There have been so many disasters in Africa, but Wakanda did nothing when people needed it most?

For the sake of peace, he would not even resist aggression. Steve couldn't understand this kind of thinking.

"Wakanda is a very divided country. It is not as simple as you think."

There is more to Wakanda than just a veil.

On the surface, it is a small and backward country. If you tear off the first layer of veil, it will reveal that it has the strongest technology in mankind. If you tear off the second layer, it will have magical power and a patron saint. What about the third layer?

Will it show a completely opposite face?
