Chapter 257 Suspicious Person

The image seemed to be that of the Shadow Lord.

"I saw him," Lin Feng whispered, "He is controlling this power."

Scarlet Witch nodded, "This proves that we are not far from success. Keep working hard, and we will definitely find his weakness."

At the same time, Doctor Strange was also studying how to cut off the Shadow Lord's control over Lin Feng's power. He consulted a large number of ancient magic books to find a way to crack it. One day, he suddenly found a key clue.

"Lin Feng, Scarlet Witch, I have found a solution," Doctor Strange said excitedly, "We need to perform a powerful ritual to use a magic circle to cut off the Shadow Lord's power connection."

Lin Feng felt a glimmer of hope, "When do we start?"

Doctor Strange said seriously, "The sooner the better. The power of the Shadow Lord is growing, and we must act before him."

They quickly prepared everything and selected a remote location for the ceremony. As night fell, Lin Feng, Doctor Strange, and Scarlet Witch stood in the center of the magic circle, surrounded by complex runes and flickering energy lights.

Doctor Strange began to chant an ancient spell, and the air was filled with mysterious power. Scarlet Witch stood behind Lin Feng, her hands gently placed on his shoulders, conveying her energy and support.

"Lin Feng, concentrate and feel the flow of energy," Doctor Strange's voice was low and firm.

Lin Feng closed his eyes and felt the energy in his body begin to surge. He tried to concentrate and resonate with the energy of Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch. Suddenly, a powerful force rose from the ground and rushed into the sky.

At this moment, the figure of the Shadow Lord appeared outside the magic circle, his eyes flashing with anger and hatred. "Don't try to stop me!" He shouted loudly, releasing powerful dark energy, trying to disrupt the ceremony.

Lin Feng felt a violent shock, but he gritted his teeth and persevered. He knew that this moment would decide everything. He felt the power of the Scarlet Witch supporting him, and Doctor Strange's spell echoed in his ears.

"Don't give up, Lin Feng, we're almost there!" Scarlet Witch's voice was firm and warm.

Lin Feng took a deep breath, gathered all his energy together, and released a powerful light. The light rushed straight into the sky and collided violently with the dark power of the Shadow Lord. A dazzling light burst out in the air, and the ground around him began to shake.

Eventually, the power of the Shadow Lord gradually weakened, and his figure became blurred. Lin Feng felt a huge force being released from his body, turning into a bright light, cutting off the power connection of the Shadow Lord.

The Shadow Lord roared angrily and disappeared into the darkness. The energy in the magic circle gradually subsided, and the air returned to tranquility.

Lin Feng opened his eyes and felt exhausted, but his heart was filled with unprecedented relief. He knew that they had succeeded.

Doctor Strange and Scarlet Witch walked up to him, and Scarlet Witch smiled and said, "You did it, Lin Feng. You have full control over your power."

Lin Feng looked at them gratefully, "Thank you for your help. Without you, I wouldn't be able to do this."

Doctor Strange patted him on the shoulder, "This is the power of teamwork, Lin Feng. We fight together and win together."

Lin Feng returned home. Although he had resolved the control of the Shadow Lord, he still couldn't calm down. He felt that he had to be more vigilant and not let the enemy have the opportunity to threaten his family. After entering the room, Lin Feng saw Lin Ming playing computer games with a long-lost smile on his face.

"Brother, you're back!" Lin Ming jumped off the chair excitedly and rushed towards Lin Feng.

Lin Feng smiled and hugged his brother, feeling warm in his heart. "Yes, Xiao Ming. How was your day?"

Lin Ming's eyes sparkled with excitement, "Great, I defeated a big boss in the game! But..." When he said this, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face.

"But what?" Lin Feng asked.

"But my necklace is missing." Lin Ming lowered his head, his voice full of loss.

Lin Feng's heart suddenly tensed up. The necklace was an important souvenir left by his parents to Lin Ming, and it had extraordinary meaning for the two brothers. "When did it disappear?" He tried to keep his voice calm.

"This afternoon, I went to the park to play for a while, and when I came back I found that my necklace was missing." Lin Ming said somewhat frustrated.

Lin Feng's thoughts raced, thinking that the necklace might not have been lost by accident. He decided to go look for it right away, but he knew he had to stay calm so his brother wouldn't worry. "Don't worry, Xiao Ming, I'll find it."

"Really?" A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Ming's eyes.

"Of course." Lin Feng said firmly. He turned and left the room, walked to the living room, and began to think about his next move.

Lin Feng went to the park first, carefully searching every corner, thinking about where Lin Ming might have passed. However, he found nothing. Just as he was about to expand the search range, the phone suddenly rang.

"Lin Feng, we need to talk." It was Doctor Strange's voice on the other end of the phone, with a hint of urgency in his tone.

"What's the matter?" Lin Feng asked, feeling something was wrong.

"Your brother's necklace was probably taken away by the enemy." Doctor Strange said, "We found a suspicious person in the surveillance."

Lin Feng was shocked. It was just as he expected. "Do you know where they are?"

"It's not certain yet, but we have a clue," Doctor Strange continued, "They may be hiding in an abandoned warehouse on the edge of the city."

"I'll be there right away." Lin Feng answered without hesitation, then quickly hung up the phone and rushed to the designated location.

Outside the abandoned warehouse, the night was thick and the surroundings were silent. Lin Feng approached cautiously, his heart full of vigilance. He pushed open the shabby iron door and walked into the dim warehouse, which was surrounded by deathly silence.

Suddenly, there was a whisper in the darkness, and then several shadows walked out from the corner. The leader was a tall and thin man, playing with a necklace in his hand, which was Lin Ming's.

"Are you looking for this?" the man sneered, his voice full of mockery.

Lin Feng clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with anger. "Give me back the necklace."

The man shrugged. "This necklace is very important to you, right? Well, we can make a deal."

"What do you want?" Lin Feng asked coldly, having already prepared for the worst.

“It’s simple. If you hand over the source of your power, we will return the necklace to you.” The man said slowly with a sinister smile on his face.
