Chapter 896 A Basketful of Christmas Gifts

Chapter 896 A Basketful of Christmas Gifts

Ever since T'Challa brought up the topic of his wife, the conversation immediately shifted to everyone's love life, and everyone's thoughts were all moving on to the next person—after all, apart from T'Challa, no one else was married.

For example, Banner's biggest obstacle to his relationship with his girlfriend Betty comes from his father-in-law, General Ross. And without a doubt, General Ross will not make an exception for Banner just because he has also become the Hulk, so the two sides are stuck in an awkward situation.

Banner even felt that this relationship was bound to end sooner or later.

Thor, when asked the relevant questions, transformed from a bold Norse barbarian into a shy figure. Jane Foster of Universe 616 wasn't an astronomer, but a nurse; however, regardless, Thor was quite infatuated with this woman. He had completely forgotten about a certain goddess of Asgard.

As for Peter, he just laughed it off and everyone moved on. I really didn't expect him to ask a young man about his love life.

Pym and Janet, on the other hand, also managed to dodge the question. Finally, Tony found a way to change the subject: "How did you and Ororo meet, T'Challa?"

"Didn't I tell you guys?" T'Challa thought for a moment and then said, "It hasn't been many years. To put it simply, I probably have to thank the X-Men for that accident. If the X-Men hadn't suddenly disbanded, I probably wouldn't have met Ororo."

Storm Ororo is not African; her mother is a Kenyan immigrant, and she herself was born in a Manhattan slum. If nothing unexpected happens, she may never have had any connection to Africa in her life.

However, discovering she was a mutant and becoming an X-Men member became the initial impetus. During her time as an X-Men member, she visited Africa several times and witnessed the poverty there, especially the severe drought in several West African countries. Therefore, after the X-Men disbanded, Aurora also chose to go to Africa, where she used her powers to summon rain and help the locals overcome the drought.

"She came to Wakanda, and that year Wakanda was also experiencing a severe drought. It's not that it doesn't usually get dry, but that year was exceptionally dry. My father was still in power at the time. She came to Wakanda and used her powers to summon rain. Hearing about this, I, as the prince, decided to investigate." "When I saw her conjuring rain, I was stunned. I thought she was so beautiful, like a goddess from mythology descended to earth. I had to marry her."

T'Challa stopped there, leaving everyone puzzled. Banner asked curiously, "And then? How did you—succeed again?"

"Well, that probably comes down to persistent pestering."

"There's one more thing, it depends on T'Challa being the prince of Wakanda," Tony suddenly added. "Without that, I believe this marriage would never have happened."

“That’s not how it works,” T’Challa objected seriously. “Many local chiefs and leaders have pursued Orolo, but I was the one who succeeded.”

"This is no different from what I said. First of all, you have to be a prince or chieftain to be able to discuss this matter. Rainfall in arid African countries is indeed enough for the locals to think it's a goddess."

They chatted and drank for a while longer, with Peter drinking juice. After a while, the little wasp couldn't contain itself any longer. It shrunk down, flew to the Christmas tree, and then grew back to its original size: "Don't you guys think these Christmas presents piled up here are too much of an eyesore? I think it would be better to take them apart."

"Hmm, I'm quite curious what gift you've prepared for me," Tony said as he stood up. Anyway, he had prepared gifts for everyone.

Of course, some people definitely didn't prepare any gifts, like Bob—he didn't have any money. But fortunately, no one felt that Bob should be responsible for the gifts.

So everyone joined the gift-finding team. The team leader also joined in, and while searching for gifts, he sighed, "We already have so many gifts for ten people. If there are even more gifts in the future, there won't be enough room under the Christmas tree. We can't possibly build four or five Christmas trees, that wouldn't be right."

Tony didn't see this as a problem at all: "Isn't there a big Christmas tree in the yard? We can put it there."

"I don't think this is a good idea," the little wasp muttered as it searched for its presents. "It didn't snow this Christmas. If it had, not only would it have been freezing outside, but the gift boxes would have been soaked."

Just as everyone was discussing how to solve the problem of not having enough Christmas trees in the future, everyone's gift boxes were almost all distributed. Peter also found his gift box.

Inside a small box was a runestone, clearly something Thor had prepared. Although Peter could tell at a glance that the stone was brimming with magical power, he wasn't quite sure what it was for yet.

What surprised Peter more was the gift Tony gave him: a nanobot watch that he already owned.

"Oh, by the way, I made you an upgraded nanosuit. This one has an additional miniature arc reactor, which can provide more energy. The nanobots' storage capacity has also been improved. Theoretically, you can use this new nanosuit directly to use the extreme speed mode."

Peter thanked Tony and accepted the new suit, which was not very useful. He could now convert his energy between bioelectricity and gas, and theoretically, even without the Arc Reactor, he could use gas to use the Extreme Speed ​​Mode.

Peter quickly found another gift that seemed to be from T'Challa. It seemed that he gave the same gifts to everyone: a small vibranium wristband that could provide protection, but it was rather formulaic and more like some local specialty than a carefully selected gift.

Peter then opened another gift, which surprised him greatly. He found a complete patent description, and after reading it with a frown, he asked in bewilderment, "Who registered this patent for me for this prosthetic body?"

"I registered it for you, Spider-Man. You've spent a lot of time on this, and it really does benefit humanity."

Vision explained that this was a gift from him: "Ultron didn't patent the prosthetic body design for him, so I thought it was better to give it to you."

Peter just looked at the patent, feeling a bit uneasy. Tony, however, was quite excited: "So, Stark Industries' new product will be on the market soon?!"
