# Chapter 733: Red Face Express Ultra-High-Speed Metro! (Bonus Chapter)
Jiangnan glanced at the giant centipede: "Can't you see I'm answering everyone's questions? Wait!"
Giant Centipede: (#)༎ຶ益༎ຶ(#)
It's so hard being a beast!
At this moment, Jiangnan was secretly watching Heidi from the corner of his eye.
He saw Heidi staring at the "spatial backpack" in his arms with sparkling eyes, a look of longing on her face.
But when she looked at the little frog in her own hand, she hesitated again.
Jiangnan was anxious inside. Why isn't this little rich girl taking the bait yet?
Qin Shou excitedly said: "Boss Nan! Sell it to me! Name your price!"
Qi Yu swallowed his saliva: "I want one too. I'll pay one more dollar than Qin Shou!"
Jiangnan hugged the backpack protectively: "I'm not selling! I still need to use it!"
I don't want to scam you guys, but you're just rushing to be scammed?
Ye Xinghe: "Just sell it to us, okay? You have your alternate dimension anyway, so you won't use it normally!"
Jiangnan pretended to hesitate: "But... but..."
Just then, Youke ran over with sparkling eyes: "Can you sell me that universe bag?"
"I'll trade you all the spirit-binding pearls I've collected here!"
Jiangnan: (๑•̀ꇴ•́) What?
He was trying to lure the little rich girl, but instead hooked a hard-headed kid?
You guys finally want to buy my stuff?
But still reluctant, he said: "But this backpack took me three years to polish! I've grown attached to it!"
Youke said: "Just polish another one, okay? Spirit-binding pearls are precious too!"
Jiangnan gritted his teeth: "Fine, but you have to guarantee our safe passage through the fourth level!"
"I still need this backpack now. I'll give it to you after we pass the fourth level!"
Youke and Youli exchanged glances, then nodded heavily!
We're just going down anyway, what's the big deal?
The deal was made, and Youke gave Jiangnan all 38 spirit-binding pearls she had collected!
Looking at the over a hundred spirit-binding pearls in his backpack, Jiangnan felt extremely satisfied.
Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao watched dumbfounded. He just tricked the fourth-level ticket out of them?
Is this guy some kind of god?
Meanwhile, Heidi looked disappointed.
Only then did Jiangnan have time to deal with the giant centipede. He grinned and stuffed ten small ginsengs into its mouth!
(ꐦ͡°ᴗ͡°): "Cherish your little life. Don't go looking for death!"
Seeing Jiangnan's demonic smile, the giant centipede's eyes were full of terror as it nodded repeatedly!
After eating ten small ginsengs, the cut-up parts of its body spurted blood and rapidly healed.
Now Jiangnan pulled out 500 pairs of extreme-speed slippers: "Lie down and put them on yourself! I don't want you touching the ground unless I say so, understand?"
The giant centipede was bewildered. It looked at Xiong Er's shoes, then at the mountain of slippers...
Hanging out with humans really is different. They even give you shoes to wear?
So it flipped over and started putting slippers on its feet one by one.
Everyone watched in disbelief.
Mom, there's a centipede putting on shoes!
Is this thing really that intelligent?
If it had a shoe cabinet at home...
While the centipede was putting on shoes, Ling Feng and Xiao Zhen came over.
"How are we going down to the fourth level? Since the US is playing this game with us, they must have defenses at the fourth-level entrance!"
Xiao Zhen nodded: "Because it's a resource layer, the US has invested heavily in their outpost. Nova Fortress is practically an unbreakable steel fortress!"
"And since they have the third-layer core, their advantage is too great. I'm afraid we'll be stuck here!"
Jiangnan narrowed his eyes: "The problem now isn't how to get to the fourth level. Since they made us suffer such a big loss, the US has to pay the price!"
"I just want to know where the third-layer core is."
Xiao Zhen sucked in a breath of cold air. Is Boss Nan trying to steal the core of their resource layer?
Does he have to be this ruthless?
Ling Feng shook his head: "Don't even think about it. The third-layer core is at the Deke Lab in the US mainland, not on the third layer at all!"
"They monitor the third layer's situation through the Heavenly Eye System, and Nova Fortress transmits necessary information via signal lights."
"Lab personnel control the core from outside, coordinating their actions."
"The US isn't the only one doing this. We do it too. After all, if anything goes wrong with a hard-earned core, the loss would be too great."
Xiao Zhen looked grim: "So doesn't that mean every move we make is under their surveillance?"
"Then how are we supposed to take down Nova Fortress?"
Jiangnan was a little disappointed. He'd wanted to snatch the third-layer core and play with it, but he didn't expect them all to be this cunning.
"The Heavenly Eye System isn't infallible. Since that's the case, let's serve them an appetizer first."
With that, he glanced at the giant centipede and his face darkened.
"Still not done putting them on? Only twenty-something pairs? Do you want to die?"
The giant centipede was almost crying. How could it put them on that fast?
My feet are so many! Don't you consider my feelings at all?
Qin Shou and the others were getting anxious too. By the time it finished putting on shoes, a kid could have learned to walk.
So they all went up to help put slippers on it.
The giant centipede was touched. You humans are all good people.
But Jiangnan's gaze turned to Youke and Heidi.
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Want to come along?"
"If Nova Fortress isn't broken, you can't go down either."
Youke readily agreed, since she still had her eye on Jiangnan's spatial backpack.
Heidi naturally agreed too. Only Adams stared at Jiangnan with venomous eyes, saying nothing, no idea what scheme he was cooking up.
He was still providing a steady stream of resentment points.
All in increments of a thousand.
This made Jiangnan reluctant to kill him, after all, finding someone with such potential was rare.
The giant centipede finally finished putting on its shoes. Qi Yu, Ye Xinghe, and the others were all looking forward to it.
Five hundred pairs of small slippers? How spectacular would that be?
Ling Feng and the others were also stunned. Not only did they use it as a means of transport, they even put slippers on it?
This whole operation was mystifying.
Were they trying to make Jiangnan's refined means of transport refined too?
Jiangnan instructed: "Don't move, understand? I'll tell you when to move!"
The giant centipede nodded repeatedly. How could it dare to disobey Jiangnan?
Jiangnan flipped the upside-down centipede onto its belly.
Then he sat astride its head, turned back, and shouted: "The Red Face Express ultra-high-speed metro is about to depart!"
"Starting station: Cora Labyrinth. Terminus: Nova Fortress!"
"Passengers, please keep your belongings with you and board in an orderly manner!"
At this moment, everyone stared blankly at Jiangnan.
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
What the hell kind of metro is this? Are you kidding me?
Is this how you use a spirit-binding beast?
What kind of brain do you have?
But one by one, they excitedly climbed onto the centipede's back.
Holding onto the black armor on the centipede's back for handrails.
Heidi and Youke were also in shock, once again having their perception of Jiangnan refreshed.
So not only is there the concept of tool people, but also tool beasts?
They climbed aboard the metro too. With over six or seven hundred people riding on the back of the fifty-meter-long centipede, it was packed full.
The giant centipede was also a bit excited. In its entire life, it had never worn shoes!
The feeling of wearing shoes was just too wonderful!
Thinking about it this way, this human wasn't so demonic after all.
Jiangnan punched the centipede's head.
٩(๑•̀ٹ•́)۶✧ Depart!
So the centipede took its first step with shoes on.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Three deafening sonic booms rang out, and the centipede's body shot forward!
With a thousand legs all working under the slippers' boost, they turned into mere afterimages!
The extreme acceleration stunned everyone. Their bodies were thrown backward, almost falling off.
The strong wind blowing in their faces distorted their skin!
People were racing ahead, while their souls floated behind!
Giant Centipede: ｡ﾟ(ﾟಥ›口‹ಥﾟ)ﾡ
Tears were scared out. It was too damn fast!
Why can't I control my own legs!
It could only watch helplessly as it crashed headfirst into a stone wall!
Its sharp mouthparts started working frantically, digging into the rock face.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, the entire centipede plunged into the rock wall!
A thousand legs working together with its mouthparts actually opened a tunnel underground!
It raced through the earth at over three times the speed of sound!
Illuminated by over a hundred "bald heads," the entire tunnel was incredibly bright!
Jiangnan cackled with joy. Where else could you find such a fast ultra-high-speed metro?
And it came with a built-in tunnel boring machine, digging wherever it went? Wasn't this too convenient?
The potential of tool beasts was truly limitless!
Still using the Heavenly Eye System? We're going underground, taking the metro!
No matter how amazing your system is, you won't find us now!
At this moment, the passengers on the metro were so shocked their eyes were about to pop out.
"Even maglev trains aren't as fast as you! My soul still hasn't caught up!"
"This is absolutely insane! We actually built a metro inside a spiritual ruin!"
"Good thing Boss Nan ate the soybean to detoxify, or he might have charged us ticket money..."
"If we can really travel like this, who could ever catch up?"
Giant Centipede: (;´༎ຶ口༎ຶ`)
The group rode the metro straight toward Nova Fortress.
But at this moment, Nova Fortress was peaceful and calm, completely unaware that a metro was currently traveling underground right toward them...
