As powerful energy surged into his body, Lin Feng felt his initially meager magic power increase at an astonishing rate. At first, he was worried that these different types of magic would clash, so he only absorbed them on a small scale. However, he quickly discovered that under the control of the powerful Meditation Technique, the magic integrated seamlessly, with no sign of conflict.
Lin Feng didn't know if it was the strength of the Meditation Technique or if the magic simply wouldn't clash in the first place, but he was ecstatic. Everyone else was scraping bits and pieces from a single demon, while he had a whole host of demons feeding him.
He didn't even feel the influence on his mind from the supposedly evil and corrupting Black Magic and chaotic Chaos Magic.
After all, these energies did have their own attributes. For example, Doctor Strange, after studying the Darkhold and becoming the Dark Doctor Strange, was capable of anything. It wasn't necessarily his true nature, but the deeper he was tainted by the dark energy, the less like himself he became.
The same went for Scarlet Witch, Wanda. She cultivated Chaos Magic, which led her down a dark path, eventually becoming a villain. The audience watched her transformation unfold, step by step.
While there were various tragedies, like the death of her brother, the death of her lover, and the loss of her twins, it was hard to say that Chaos Magic didn't play a role.
After a whole night of cultivation, Lin Feng slowly opened his eyes, feeling the magic power in his body surging. He figured this was considered a preliminary entry into the practice.
Lin Feng didn't know what level his magical power had reached, but after learning magic, his resistance to it had also increased significantly. At the very least, he wasn't completely helpless against magical attacks anymore.
He began to practice casting Dimensional Portals. With a gesture, golden sparks appeared in the air, like the effect of iron flowers.
Lin Feng didn't have the Eye of Agamotto, but he didn't seem to need it now; he could still feel it.
However, without the Eye of Agamotto's assistance, Lin Feng felt his casting speed was significantly reduced. Perhaps that was why most mages used it. But truly powerful mages might not need it, and Lin Feng's current combat style mainly relied on his terrifying physique and martial arts. Magic could serve as a useful supplement.
Furthermore, these weaknesses could be overcome as he became more proficient in the future.
After several attempts, Lin Feng finally succeeded, opening a Dimensional Portal in front of him. On the other side of the portal was none other than his office.
Then he closed the portal. Although it would allow him to quickly get to the company, it would still scare people. Of course, whether he scared them or not wasn't the point. The key was that if he used the portal every day, what was the point of buying a sports car?
Wouldn't he be like someone who became wealthy but didn't return home, like wearing fine clothes at night when no one could see them?
Taking a bit longer on the road didn't matter. He wasn't a miserable office worker, rushing for the subway or bus every day. (Manual dog head)
After a quick wash and a bite of bread – it all tasted terrible anyway, so Lin Feng didn't care. This "white people food" almost made him throw up. He had to run back to Chinatown every so often to get a proper Chinese meal, not that Americanized stuff.
When he went downstairs in the community, he saw a familiar face that shocked him: Captain America, Steve Rogers.
Lin Feng hadn't expected to meet Steve Rogers in this kind of situation.
"Hi, I'm the new neighbor, Steve Rogers. Perhaps you know me?" Captain America, Rogers, greeted him.
"Of course, Captain America. I think everyone in the world knows you. Lin Feng, Chinese-American!" Lin Feng quickly composed himself and greeted him generously.
In fact, if it were six months ago, he probably wouldn't have welcomed Captain America. These superheroes were trouble magnets, like that elementary school student in the world of detective stories, who brought death wherever he went.
Superheroes had a similar trait. They, of course, had the protagonist's halo and wouldn't easily get into trouble, but the people around them might suffer.
Here, the focus is on a certain Spider-Man, whom I can't name directly.
Even now, Lin Feng tries his best to distance himself from the identity of Homelander.
Those things were done by Homelander, what does it have to do with me, Lin Feng? But he doesn't care anymore. What trouble could Captain America Rogers cause? It might not be as dangerous as the trouble he himself has caused.
Look at his opponents, it's just Hydra!
Just Hydra. If they went head-to-head, Lin Feng wouldn't be afraid. He was just afraid they'd involve his parents. He'd already taken over this body, so he couldn't even protect the safety of his parents? That would be too useless.
"Hello, Lin!" Captain America Rogers said.
He looked at Lin Feng, knowing this was the owner of the diary, and also the true identity of Homelander, who was now famous worldwide.
Captain America was also notified last night to move, to be precise, to get closer to Lin Feng.
At first, Captain America, Steve Rogers, thought Nick Fury wanted him to keep an eye on Lin Feng, to prevent him from causing trouble. Then, Nick Fury showed him Lin Feng's combat videos, and he realized he'd been overthinking it.
With Lin Feng's strength, if they actually fought, he'd probably be killed with a single punch.
He couldn't believe it. Was this a normal person?
Was this even human?
But whether he believed it or not, this was an era teeming with monsters.
And the person in front of him was one of them.
Afterward, Nick Fury revealed his true purpose: to have him become friends with Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's diary was full of praise for him, clearly showing that he admired Captain America, Steve Rogers. In this situation, building a good relationship with Lin Feng was very important.
Lin Feng's combat ability alone was a huge draw, and coupled with his diary, it was even more valuable. If Captain America, Steve Rogers, could slightly influence Lin Feng, he could learn more about the future, which would be beneficial.
So, Captain America, Steve Rogers, had come with a mission. He didn't refuse, because he wasn't a naive person who would turn down such an opportunity. Besides, the environment here was much better than his previous rented place.
The gap between ordinary, upscale, and luxury communities in America is simply vast.
"But seeing Captain move in, does that mean the Department of Defense's compensation and back pay finally came through?" Lin Feng asked.
"Ah, not yet!" Captain America Rogers replied.
He wasn't a deserter, and he hadn't retired in all these years, so logically, he should have a substantial annuity, plus compensation that was supposed to be paid out when they thought he was dead. However, since he was still alive, the compensation was naturally gone. But when you add up all sorts of bonuses and salaries over seventy years, it's a considerable sum.
Although the U.S. government often skimps, it's a different story when it comes to Captain America Rogers.
The name Captain America is now the focus of countless people's attention. If they were to play any tricks in this regard, the entire U.S. government would become a laughingstock, not to mention the countless fans of Captain America, who would tear them apart. No one dares to offend such a vast fanbase.
After all, this is a society based on elections.
Lin Feng thought that either the Department of Defense or S.H.I.E.L.D. had arranged it. He just didn't know which organization Captain America currently belonged to.
Lin Feng then asked, "Have you considered reclaiming your royalties? Those companies have made a fortune exploiting your image and copyrights over the past seventy years, and all without your permission, right?"
"Not yet," Captain America Rogers replied, shaking his head. He hadn't thought that far ahead when he'd... well, died. Besides, he never imagined the U.S. government would launch a propaganda campaign to deify him. When he woke up, he found countless comics, novels, games, TV shows, and movies about himself, spanning seventy years.
"You should definitely consider it. If you need it, I have a company with a sizable legal team that can help you sue those damn copyright companies. It's a violation of your right of publicity," Lin Feng said righteously. No one would guess he'd just made four billion using those companies, and was now planning to sue them.
He was already a master of the capitalist's double-dealing.
Captain America Rogers hesitated. He wasn't particularly materialistic. To be honest, the salary and pension he received would be more than enough to live comfortably. Besides, in this world seventy years later, he didn't even know how to spend money.
"Captain, you could establish a foundation with the money to help the poor, or vulnerable groups, or veterans. In short, make those damn rich people cough up some money to give back to society. Think of how many people you could help," Lin Feng urged, his face filled with righteous indignation.
Captain America, Steve Rogers, was a little speechless. Aren't you one of those rich guys too?
Why does it feel like this speech has a sense of class resentment?
This doesn't seem quite right.
But what Lin Feng said also made a lot of sense. Captain America, Steve Rogers, nodded. After all, even though he was a saint, he had grown up under the influence of capitalism. It was only natural to take back what he deserved.
"If that's the case, it's not impossible!" Captain America, Steve Rogers, said.
"Alright then, leave a way to contact you. I'll have my lawyer contact you later!" Lin Feng said, and then saw Captain America, Steve Rogers, pull out a small phone book. He was instantly stunned. Well, this method of recording contact information was really something he hadn't seen in a long time.
