Walking to the edge of the cliff, Eric Kermango slowly stretched out his right arm that was holding Mbaku up.
Mbaku was suspended in the air, and below his feet was the cliff. As long as Eric let go, he would fall straight down. Even if he was a monkey, he would only end up as meat paste, let alone a "white ape" like him.
But there was still no fear in Mbaku's eyes. A true warrior never feared death!
But it was clear that Eric Kermango did not intend to kill him like this. Glancing at the solemn Jabari tribe warriors by the pool, Eric turned his head and looked into Mbaku's eyes.
"Admit defeat, your tribe needs you."
Mbaku, who was originally full of determination, looked at his tribe members on the side with a sluggish expression.
Apart from him, the Jabari tribe really did not have a qualified leader. His tribe needed him alive to lead them.
Thinking of this, Mbaku's expression could not help but relax. Looking at Eric Kermango who defeated him in one move, Mbaku dejectedly gave up struggling and squeezed out a few words from his throat.
"I, admit defeat!"
… …
He easily defeated the last challenger, the leader of the Jabari tribe, Mbaku. The challenge ceremony was over, and Eric Kermango officially became the king of the Kingdom of Wakanda.
But the ceremony was not completely over.
In Wakanda, the first thing a king did after officially ascending the throne was to receive the blessing of the Leopard God.
He would take the heart-shaped herb, and while his body was strengthened, his consciousness would also return to the ancestral land to receive the teachings of his dead ancestors.
In the gold mine, there was a cave where heart-shaped herbs grew, and the strengthening ceremony was held here.
The whole process was no different from Chen Mo's memory. After Eric Kermango, who was lying in the pit, took the juice of the heart-shaped herb, he was buried by the priests with yellow soil and piled up into a grave.
A few minutes later, the buried Eric broke out of the ground like a corpse, gasping for breath.
As a Chinese, Chen Mo felt uncomfortable with this strange custom of theirs. He didn't think that the strengthening of the heart-shaped herb required people to be buried. This was just a custom left over from the primitive society.
It was very likely that the first black panther in history had consumed the heart-shaped herb after being seriously injured. After that, he was buried as dead. After his injuries were healed by the power of the heart-shaped herb and he was strengthened enough to break out of the ground, he was thought to be blessed by the gods. The whole process was preserved as a traditional ceremony. They had to bury him and repeat the process of him breaking out of the ground again.
Although Wakanda's technology was very advanced, it was only advanced in technology. Their politics, economy, military system, ideology, and other aspects were still very backward. This could be seen from their challenge for the throne.
Which country with a mature and stable system and a deep foundation would use a duel to determine the succession of the throne? It was simply child's play!
However, this wasn't surprising. A few decades ago, Wakanda was just a primitive and backward tribal alliance similar to other African countries. The precious vibranium was only used as a hard metal to forge cold weapons.
As the world developed, Wakanda gradually interacted with the outside world and discovered the vastness of the outside world and the power of technology.
When they accidentally discovered that the small amount of vibranium that flowed out of Wakanda was regarded as a treasure by outsiders, they truly realized the huge value of vibranium.
After that, they began to sell vibranium in small amounts to the outside world. They used the huge amount of wealth to send the intelligent young people of the tribe abroad to learn advanced scientific knowledge and high-end technology. When they returned home, they used the advantages of vibranium to develop technology. This was how they developed from a primitive tribe to a high-tech country that surpassed the outside world in a few decades. In some aspects, they were even comparable to Hydra.
Although technology was advanced, Wakanda's foundation was not enough. Many other aspects could not keep up with the rapid advancement of technology, and their development was somewhat abnormal.
However, this also had its benefits. It was precisely because of this that Eric Kermango was able to become the King of Wakanda so easily and control the entire country in one fell swoop. If it was any other country with a little bit of foundation, this was simply impossible.
In any case, Chen Mo had finally completed his plan and made Eric Kermango the King of Wakanda. As a loyal warrior of Hydra and his devout follower, Eric controlled Wakanda and became the King. This was equivalent to Chen Mo becoming the King. A lot of things would be easier to handle.
After consuming the heart-shaped herb, Eric Kermango's physical fitness that was originally five times that of an ordinary person was strengthened again to seven times that of an ordinary person. This was basically the same as Chen Mo's current physical fitness.
Of course, this was only in terms of physical fitness. Chen Mo's combat experience and skills were far superior to Eric Kermango's. Although their physical fitness was similar, his overall strength completely crushed Eric Kermango's.
Whether it was in the SEALs or as a mercenary, Eric Kermango was considered a battle maniac. He had been through hundreds of battles and had taken thousands of lives. He was definitely considered a top warrior on Earth. His combat experience and skills were very strong.
However, compared to Chen Mo, who had fought everywhere in the world of Legends of the Night, killed countless people, conquered the entire Europe, and annihilated the werewolves, he was still too young and inexperienced.
Chen Mo's combat skills were a combination of various exquisite martial arts techniques. He had been constantly refining and improving them in battle and had become very powerful. This was something that Eric Kermango could not catch up to in a short period of time.
After all, he did not have Chen Mo's strong spiritual power and highly developed brain, as well as the incomparable learning ability that came with it. Although Eric's brain had also been developed to a certain extent after being modified by the Enhanced Super Soldier Serum, his intelligence, memory, and other aspects had been strengthened. However, compared to Chen Mo, he was still a far cry.
As for swordsmanship, there was even less of a comparison. Chen Mo's swordsmanship was based on the Holy Cross Swordsmanship that had evolved and developed in the Middle Ages for hundreds of years. It had integrated the extraordinary swordsmanship that the ancestor of the undead, Alexander Corvinus, had honed over hundreds of years in continuous battles with the powerful werewolves. It had long reached the peak of perfection. His moves were exquisite and powerful. Even Chen Mo himself would find it difficult to improve it.
If it was hand-to-hand combat, Eric Kermango could still take a few moves from Chen Mo. However, once Chen Mo pulled out the King's Sword, he could kill him in one move and end the battle.
The strengthened Eric Kermango stood up. However, he saw Chen Mo give him a look.
"All of you, stand down!"
