Lin Feng glanced at the manned aircraft.
In the scientific research data provided by Lin Feng, there was indeed anti-gravity technology.
However, Lin Feng only gave it a cursory glance before looking away.
This kind of technology was no longer novel to him.
But despite saying that, seeing his hometown develop to this extent, Lin Feng couldn't stop smiling.
[Intersection ahead, red light in ten seconds, please brake in advance and wait.]
Ling Lu's motorcycle suddenly spoke at this moment.
Ling Lu skillfully brought the motorcycle to a steady stop at the intersection.
"Here, the most basic holographic projection technology."
At the intersection, as the red light illuminated, a semi-transparent light wall appeared before them.
Within the light wall, pedestrians on both sides of the road moved about rapidly.
The light wall also thoughtfully displayed a countdown.
Lin Feng could see that everyone within the light wall had a smile on their faces.
"The public security here is very safe, with surveillance systems everywhere to detect behavior."
"I heard it's managed and monitored by a pseudo-artificial intelligence system developed by the higher authorities."
"But this thing has also caused quite a bit of controversy," Ling Lu said, pointing at the electronic eyes on either side of the road.
"Some people believe it's very unfriendly to personal privacy, while others fully support it."
"I can't quite understand it. Aren't all cities nowadays full of surveillance? Why do so many people feel uncomfortable in this particular city?"
Ling Lu grumbled, unable to comprehend it, but Lin Feng could somewhat understand.
"This mode of operation, while having benefits, undoubtedly has drawbacks."
"In a city like this, one will inevitably lose something," Lin Feng said thoughtfully.
"For instance, a certain warmth..."
"Warmth?" Ling Lu repeated.
She knew Lin Feng wasn't simply talking about the ambient temperature.
She looked around. Besides the towering buildings and ubiquitous metal, there were also significant green spaces in the city.
However, the overall color palette was cold.
Coupled with the stricter regulations here, Ling Lu seemed to grasp what Lin Feng was conveying.
Suddenly, she seemed to realize something and felt a bit uneasy looking at the surveillance cameras.
"Other cities also have surveillance, but they are largely ignored by people's gaze."
"But in this city, these actions are too conspicuous..."
Lin Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at the manned aircraft in the sky again.
It was like a sword with built-in surveillance, constantly hanging high above.
Even if people didn't have the inclination to break the rules, having such a thing constantly overhead would still make them feel uneasy.
"That feeling, it's like being constantly suspected by someone, and of course, that would lead to a lack of warmth..."
Ling Lu's heart stirred slightly, and she suddenly understood.
She then took out a small notebook and began writing rapidly.
Lin Feng curiously peeked over.
He saw that Ling Lu was writing down the very issue he had just observed.
"What are you writing this for?" Lin Feng asked curiously.
Ling Lu finished writing quickly, put away the notebook, and chuckled.
"Of course, to offer suggestions to the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Security!"
"This city has only been in trial operation for a short time, and many things are still being figured out as we go."
"I think the issue you just mentioned might be one that has been overlooked."
"Or perhaps, someone has brought it up, but due to practical considerations, no changes have been made yet."
"The authorities attach great importance to every detail of this city, and I want to contribute my part!"
As they talked, the light wall disappeared, and Ling Lu led Lin Feng to speed along the smooth road again.
Along the way, the two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the Spiral Center.
Indeed, the spiral-shaped building soared into the sky, its top disappearing beyond the clouds.
Its height must have been at least four hundred meters.
The entire Spiral Center gave an impression of immense scale.
Looking up, an indescribable feeling welled up in their hearts.
Near the Spiral Center, there were many pedestrians, much like the large shopping malls Lin Feng had visited. Some carried shopping bags with logos on them.
"This Spiral Center combines various functions, including leisure, entertainment, dining, and shopping," Ling Lu said as she parked her precious motorcycle in the designated parking area.
Then, she led Lin Feng towards the Spiral Center.
"Inside, you can also experience the latest civilian technologies."
"Including more realistic VR experiences and virtual haptic interaction devices currently in pilot production."
"In recent years, so many novel technologies have emerged that even in non-pilot cities, people's lives have undergone earth-shattering changes."
Ling Lu spoke as she walked, her face always bearing a sincere smile and a sense of pride.
However, in the first two years, most of the human and material resources were focused on external exploration, so some easily developed technologies took longer to appear than expected.
Lin Feng watched, equally happy and relieved.
His efforts had not been in vain.
Although many aspects still couldn't compare to what he had seen on some alien planets,
it had only been a few years.
Under normal circumstances, this was just the beginning, not even reaching the peak of development speed.
Lin Feng's scientific research data had been like a radical modification, directly skipping a long phase of development.
For the rest of the day, Ling Lu took Lin Feng around the Spiral Center.
It was as vast as it appeared from the outside.
Even at a glance, excluding the time they spent eating, the two couldn't even cover a tenth of the Spiral Center in a day.
On the second day, Lin Feng expressed that he needed to leave.
Ling Lu was somewhat surprised and also reluctant.
They had only seen things for one day, and she had taken two days off. She hadn't expected Lin Feng to leave after just one day. She still had many places she wanted to show him.
However, she also knew that Lin Feng likely had many matters to attend to in Marvel.
Therefore, despite her reluctance, she didn't try to keep him.
He would only take a look for now; he didn't want to disturb the fourth wall too much.
After bidding farewell to Ling Lu, Lin Feng returned to Marvel without looking back.
When they met again, he would undoubtedly be clad in armor.
His journey in the Marvel universe, if nothing unexpected happened, was reaching its conclusion.
The information about the Black Robes was gradually becoming clearer in Lin Feng's mind.
What Lin Feng needed to do most now was to eliminate them.
Looking at the magical wall in his mind, whose analysis progress was still as slow as a snail's crawl, Lin Feng had a vague premonition.
He felt that when this wall was completely deciphered, it would be the time for him to fully return to the outside of the fourth wall.
