CLANK—WHOOOOOOSH!
Up on the central mezzanine of Floor Three, white-bearded Grandpa Yao hauled down the master golden lever of [Grandpa Yao’s Wholesome Plot Printing Press] with both hands!
Directly beneath his boots, the three-hundred-foot bronze reservoir of the library’s Central Printing Press & Master Ink-Vein shuddered to its foundations.
First, Auntie Qin stepped up beside the main intake pipe and flicked nine fused [Peace Pharmacy Golden Acupuncture Needles] into the bronze drainage valves. With a loud HISS-GLUG-GLUG, the remaining underground geyser of pitch-black Tragedy Ink was permanently sealed off. Rerouted straight into a sealed biohazard waste barrel labeled [DO NOT DRINK — HIGH CONCENTRATION OF EDGY BAD WRITING].
Then, the golden rotary cylinders of [Grandpa Yao’s Wholesome Plot Printing Press] spun into high gear!
Fed by a hundred quadrillion points of Gu Changsheng’s warm Supreme Dad Origin Energy, combined with Grandpa Yao’s life-giving Nine-Sun Pill Flame. Auntie Qin’s Soothing Herbal Vitality, a roaring torrent of Liquid Golden-Amber Hearth Ink surged through all ten trillion distribution tubes branching out from Floor Three!
Within three seconds, the dark ironwood bookshelves across both levels of the Ink-Sea Library lit up like a galaxy of warm golden lanterns!
Down on the bridge of Floor Two, Grand Proofreader Mo Wu stared in horror as the ten trillion defected Auto-Quill Brushes—backed by the ten thousand Smiley-Face Ink Golems. Dipped their bristles into the newly arrived golden-amber ink and poised themselves above the freshly erased jade destiny books.
