The holographic globe of Planet Canglan flashed with two violent crimson vortexes separated by forty thousand miles of land and sea.At the Eastern Pole. Three thousand miles east of the Undersea Crystal Capital, Script-Nail #3 had unlocked its underground drill-gears. Churning the ocean into a hundred-mile-wide abyssal maelstrom as it bored downward toward the planetary mantle.
At the Southern Pole, in the heart of the Southern Scorched Crater, Script-Nail #4 was overheating its drought furnace to ten thousand degrees, preparing to detonate at the exact same second!
“Forty thousand miles apart!” Grandpa Yao gasped, his translucent fingers trembling on the edge of the map table. “Master Gu, even with Young Master Fifth’s Void Dragon space-folding, crossing forty thousand miles takes fifteen minutes!
If we take the whole family to the East Pole first and spend ten minutes extracting Nail Number Three, we will never reach the South Pole before Nail Number Four hits the mantle!”
“That’s what the Heavenly Script Pavilion’s algorithm is banking on,” Gu Changsheng said, his voice steady and calm as a mountain. “They calculated that one father can’t be in two places forty thousand miles apart at the same time.”
