Chapter 2424: I Will Teach You How To Drive
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After the dinner service, Mag told the little ones a bedtime story and then went for his appointment with a helping of freshly made red braised pork.
Approximately 16 kilometers to the west of the western city was a deserted mountain.
Mag went up the mountain with the red braised pork and saw Xi, who was standing next to the cliff with her hands behind her back.
Xi was wearing a white combat suit and the battleship was hovering behind her. The full moon tonight became her background. She looked lonely and out of this world.
“Are you hungry?” Mag presented the delivery with a smile.
!!
“Thank you.” Xi accepted the insulated box. Although she looked calm, there was a smile in her eyes.
“The total for the red braised pork plus delivery charges is 2500 copper coins. Do you want to pay cash or charge it to credit?” Mag was still smiling.
Xi’s expression froze and she looked at him seriously. “I have to pay?”
Mag nodded.
“I don’t have any money.” Xi shook her head. She simply took out a small table and chair, opened the insulated box and started eating.

Mag looked at Xi, who was eating happily, with a frown. “Is it common to have a free meal now?”
Mag took out a bottle of liquor and sat across from Xi.
Xi moved the red braised pork towards herself and continued eating.

“…” Mag.
Because there were no side dishes to eat with the liquor, Mag watched Xi finish the entire helping of red braised pork.
Mag faintly asked Xi, who was wiping her mouth, “Is it nice?”
“Your culinary skills are still stable as usual.” Xi nodded slightly.
“You have eaten, so what are we going to do now?” Mag put away his liquor and cast a glance at that hovering battleship. He said with excitement, “Shall we start with driving the battleship?”
Who doesn’t have the dream of being a captain?
“You don’t have the clearance to learn how to pilot the battleship currently.” Xi shook her head with a serious expression.
Mag just said, “Oh.” He was just joking anyway.
“We will start from learning the Underground City’s official language first,” Xi said.
“Don’t you guys use the Norland Continent’s common tongue?” Mag asked instinctively before realizing how stupid his question was.
Xi didn’t laugh at him. She continued to calmly say, “Just because we know how to speak the Norland Continent’s common tongue doesn’t mean we use the Norland Continent’s common tongue. Underground City has a completely different language system. You need to grasp it completely before you can enter Underground City.”
“My ability in languages is not bad.” Mag was rather confident. After all, he was a man who had mastered eight languages previously. Learning a new language wasn’t difficult for him.
“You can send the tutorial to my bangle and I’ll slowly study it myself when I go home. Let’s skip over this part and start on the other lessons.”
After pondering for a while, Xi accepted Mag’s suggestion and nodded, “Then, I will teach you how to drive[1.In the Chinese Internet’s lingo, “driving” is an innuendo for having s*x.] now.”
“Oh? We are so direct now?” Mag raised his eyebrows.
Xi took out a capsule car. Accurately speaking, she took out a cool black flying car from a capsule.
Its wild beast-like front, streamlined body, matt black texture and two over-the-top thrusters at the back had easily won over all the luxurious cars in his previous life’s garage.
Mag followed Xi into the flying car and leaned against the comfortable seat. He instinctively reached for the seatbelt.
Hmm. There was nothing there.
Xi flicked a glance at Mag. He didn’t look very shocked and his actions in getting into the car were too smooth. He looked just like an… experienced driver?

“This is the flying car, the most common mode of transportation in Underground City now.” Xi began to introduce this car and the Underground City’s driving rules to Mag.
“The flying car has two driving modes. The auto driving mode can be voice-controlled. You only need to tell it your destination and the flying car will drive itself automatically and bring you to your destination. You only need to grasp this mode,” Xi said.
Mag looked at the steering wheel in front of Xi and seriously said, “There is no soul in this driving method. I want to learn how to drive it myself.”
Mag didn’t know how they made the flying car that was controlled by a steering wheel.
Out of prudence, he didn’t want to hand his fate over to auto-drive in certain times of danger.
Xi turned her head to look at him. “Are you certain that you want to learn that?”
“Of course.” Mag nodded with conviction.
“Then, watch this carefully.” Xi tapped on the start button on the steering wheel lightly and the racing seat belt extended out from the seat and automatically buckled over Mag.
The instrument panel was displayed directly on the front windshield. There was only a simple time and speed.
Mag was just about to diss that the seat belt was too over-the-top when Xi hit the accelerator.
That strong push back pressed the unprepared Mag into his seat right away. His entire person sank into the soft seat.
In that instant, Mag saw the speed on the instrument panel skyrocketed from 0 to 1,000km/h in about two seconds?
The pitch dark world raced backwards crazily. Mag could only see the bright moon in the sky and the speed on the instrument panel that maintained at 1,000km/h and above.
Yes. This thing was much faster than a bullet train.
This was the car that a man should drive!
Mag was beginning to get excited.
Xi thought that this would make Mag back off, but she met his glowing eyes when she turned to look at him.
There was no intention of backing off at all. He looked completely exhilarated.
Mag hurried her. “Carry on. Turn, drift, spin.”
Driving in a straight line was too boring. It was a complete waste of the performance of this car.
“Are you teaching me how to drive?” Xi looked at him.
“We are going to hit the mountains if you keep looking at me.” Mag pointed to the front.
Xi’s gaze returned to the front and her expression changed a little. A black mountain had suddenly appeared in front and the cracks on the black cliffs could already be seen clearly under the light.
Just as Mag was thinking about whether he should jump out of the car, Xi did a series of operations that shocked him.
She pulled the steering wheel upwards and the car went up as well. She forcefully pulled the wheel until the car was parallel to the cliff. The thrusters under the car suddenly burst into action and quickly acted against the forward moving force.
Finally, the flying car flew upwards, sticking very close to the cliff. The closest part was only about 10 centimeters away from the cliff.
After going over the mountain, the moon reappeared in his vision again.
Xi heaved a breath of relief and smiled. Her operation was still steady and awesome.
“So, driving is actually so exciting?” Mag said faintly.
The smile froze on Xi’s lips. Then, she said properly, “It’s easy to have an accident when we drive by hand, especially when we are distracted in the driving process. This is your first lesson. You must always remember that safety always comes first.”
“I got it. I got it.” Mag nodded, trying very hard not to laugh out loud.
“Do you still want to learn it?” Xi asked seriously.
“Yes, Coach. I want to learn it.” Mag nodded with conviction.
