604: Chapter 603 The Shaking of the Heavenly Eye

Devil...

In Professor Disser's mind, the face of Pope Smith, full of faith, emerged.

He still clearly remembered how the Pope had described to them a Huaxia controlled by the devil.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we have arrived..."

The plane landed smoothly at Magic City International Airport.

The flight attendant's voice pulled Professor Disser back from his memories.

The moment Professor Disser stepped out of the cabin and onto the jet bridge, his eyes began to scan the surroundings.

However, the scene before him caused him to become instantly vigilant.

He saw the sky buzzing as countless small and medium-sized drones shuttled through the low altitude in an orderly fashion, covering almost the entire sky of the airport except for the flight paths.

On the ground.

Airport staff wearing Exoskeleton Armor of various colors were everywhere.

Some were guiding planes, some were carrying cargo, and others were performing routine maintenance.

Occasionally, several people wearing even taller exoskeletons patrolled; those armors were clearly equipped with weapon systems, marking them as security personnel on duty.

Just then.

A young receptionist wearing a Huachen Technology Group uniform walked over with a smile on his face.

"Hello, are you Professor Disser? I'm here to pick you up. My name is Xiao Chen."

"That's me." Professor Disser nodded, but his gaze was still captivated by everything around him.

He pointed at the patrolling security personnel and asked, "Are those... soldiers?"

"Oh, you mean them." Xiao Chen looked where he was pointing and smiled. "That's the airport's security force, not soldiers. They're wearing security exoskeletons and are responsible for maintaining airport order and counter-terrorism tasks. It's very safe, you don't need to worry."

Professor Disser didn't speak, following Xiao Chen toward the interior of the terminal.

Upon entering the terminal, the advanced nature of the airport's various facilities far exceeded his imagination.

Holographic projection guidance signs floated in mid-air, clearly indicating all directions.

Automatically operating maglev cargo carts glided by silently.

Smaller unmanned shuttle cars were picking up and dropping off passengers in need.

And in the airport lobby, intelligent robots that looked like real people were providing various services to passing travelers in multiple languages.

"Would you like me to introduce them to you, Professor?" Xiao Chen noticed his surprise.

"No need." Professor Disser withdrew his gaze. "These... are rarely seen in North America."

"We only popularized these in the last two years. Under the leadership of Lin Mo, Huaxia's technological development has been very rapid; there are basically major changes every month." Xiao Chen's tone carried a hint of pride. "This way, please. The car is already waiting outside."

All of this made Professor Disser feel as if he had stepped into a science fiction movie.

In a daze, he followed Xiao Chen out of the airport and got into the special vehicle sent by Huachen Technology to pick them up.

It was a maglev business van with a spacious interior; no engine noise could be heard when it started.

As the vehicle traveled on the city's aerial highway, the scenery outside the window made Professor Disser feel waves of dizziness.

In the sky, "Kunlun" civilian Exoskeleton Armor of various designs sped past from time to time.

On the ground, maglev buses glided silently on dedicated tracks, and the streets below were spotless.

The new high-rise buildings by the roadside that hadn't yet been topped out had a sci-fi and bold style, full of a sense of the future.

Professor Disser watched all this, speechless for a long time.

He saw the pedestrians on the roadside; whether they were men, women, young or old, although their faces didn't necessarily carry smiles, they were certainly brimming with a kind of vitality.

A kind of vitality full of hope for life that he had never seen on the faces of the people in North America.

Was this... the world of the devil that the Pope spoke of?

In Professor Disser's heart, a trace of wavering suddenly emerged.
