After the dinner service, Meg told the kids a bedtime story before leaving for his appointment with the braised pork that was just out of the pot.
There was a barren mountain five kilometers west of the West City Gate.
Meg went up the mountain with the braised pork and saw Xi standing by the cliff with her hands behind her back.
She was wearing a white combat uniform with a warship hovering behind her. The full moon became her background, making her look lonely and out of place in this world.
"Are you hungry?" Meg smiled as he delivered the takeout.
"Thank you." Xi took the insulated box. Although her expression was calm, she could not hide the smile in her eyes.
"The braised pork and delivery fee is a total of 2,500 copper coins. Cash or credit?" Meg was still smiling.
Xi's expression froze and she looked at him seriously. "You want money?"
Meg nodded.
"I don't have money." Xi shook her head and took out a small table and a small stool. She opened the insulated box and started eating.
Meg looked at Xi who was enjoying her meal and frowned. "Is it so natural to freeload now?"
Meg took a bottle of wine and sat opposite Xi.
Xi Xi moved the braised pork closer to her and continued eating.
Meg was speechless.
Since there were no dishes to go with the wine, Meg sat and watched Xi finish the braised pork.
"Is it good?" Meg looked at Xi who was wiping her mouth and asked.
"Her culinary skills are still good." Xi nodded.
"I'm full. What are we going to do now?" Meg put away his wine and looked at the warship hovering in the air. He said enviously, "Let's start with warship piloting?"
Who didn't have an admiral dream?
"You don't have permission to learn warship piloting yet." Xi shook her head with a serious expression.
Meg said, "Oh." It was just a joke.
"Let's start with learning the official language of the underground city," Xi said.
"Don't you speak the common language of the Norland Continent?" Meg asked subconsciously and then realized how stupid his question was.
Instead of mocking him, Xi said calmly, "Just because we can speak the Norland Continent's common language doesn't mean that we speak the Norland Continent's common language. The dungeon has a completely different language system. You have to master it before you can enter the dungeon."
"I'm talented in languages." Meg was quite confident. After all, he was a man who mastered eight foreign languages. It was not difficult for him to learn a new language.
"Just send the lessons to my bracelet and I'll go home to learn them. Let's skip this section and start the other lessons."
Xi thought for a while, and agreed to Mag's suggestion. She nodded, and said, "Then, I will teach you how to drive next."
"Huh? So direct? "Meg's brows raised.
Sure enough, Xi took out a capsule car. To be precise, she took out a cool black flying car from a capsule.
It had a wild beast-like front, a streamlined body, a black frosted body, and two exaggerated propellers at the back. It easily beat all the luxury cars in the garage in his previous life.
Following Xi into the flying car, Meg leaned back in the comfortable seat and subconsciously touched the seat belt.
Hmm, he touched nothing.
Xi glanced at Meg. He did not appear too surprised. Instead, he was a little too familiar with getting into the car like … an experienced driver?
"This is a flying car, the most common mode of transportation in the underground city." Xi started to introduce the car to Meg and some of the current road rules in the underground city.
"The flying car has two driving modes. The automatic driving mode can be controlled by voice. You just need to say the location and the flying car will drive automatically to bring you to your destination. You just need to master this mode," Xi said.
"This method of driving is soulless. I want to learn manual driving." Meg looked at the steering wheel in front of Xi and said seriously.
Meg did not know how they managed to control a flying car that was like a miniature spaceship with a steering wheel.
Out of his cautious nature, he did not want to leave his fate to the automatic driving in certain dangerous situations.
"Are you sure you want to learn?" Xi tilted her head and looked at him.
"Of course." Meg nodded with certainty.
"Then take a look." Xi gently pressed the start button on the steering wheel. A racing seatbelt stretched out from the seat and automatically buckled on Meg.
The dashboard was directly displayed on the front windshield with only a simple speed and time.
Meg was about to complain that the seatbelt was a little too exaggerated when Xi stepped on the accelerator.
The strong pushing force pressed the defenseless Meg against the back of the seat and his whole body almost sank into the soft seat.
In that instant, Mag saw the speed on the dashboard soar from 0 km/h to 1000 km/h. It took about two seconds?
The pitch-black world receded rapidly. Meg could only see the bright moon in the sky and the speed on the dashboard was above 1000 km/h.
Yes, this thing was much faster than a high-speed rail.
This was the car a man should drive!
Meg started to get a little excited.
Xi thought that this would make Meg flinch, but she turned her head and met his bright eyes.
There was no intention of backing down. He looked completely excited.
"Keep driving. Turn, drift, spin." Meg urged.
Driving in a straight line was too inoperable and a complete waste of the car's performance.
"Are you teaching me how to drive?" Xi looked at him.
"If you keep staring at me, we're going to crash into a mountain." Meg pointed to the front.
Xi's gaze returned to the front and her expression changed slightly. A dark mountain suddenly appeared in front of them and the cracks on the black cliff were clearly visible under the light.
Just as Meg was considering whether to jump out of the car, Xi did a series of operations that left him flabbergasted.
She pulled the steering wheel up and the front of the car was lifted, forcibly pulling it parallel to the cliff. The injectors under the car suddenly exploded and quickly removed the forward momentum.
In the end, the flying car was pulled up almost vertically against the cliff and was only about ten centimeters away from the cliff at its closest point.
After crossing the mountain, the moon appeared in sight again.
Xi breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on her lips. Her operation was still stable and sharp.
"Is driving such an exciting thing?" Meg said faintly.
The smile on Xi Xi's face froze. She then said in all seriousness, "Manual driving is prone to accidents, especially when you get distracted while driving. This is the first lesson for you. You must always remember that there are thousands of roads, but safety comes first."
"I've learned my lesson." Mag nodded as he tried his best not to laugh.
"Do you still want to learn?" Xi asked in all seriousness.
"Yes, Coach, I want to learn this." Meg nodded firmly.
