Charlie changed into his own clothes early in the morning and instructed Albert to settle Ruby down at Champs Elys Resort. Meanwhile, Charlie and Vera took the portrait of Marcius and boarded a helicopter back to Vera’s residence at Scarlet Pinnacle Manor.
Meanwhile, a Boeing 777-200LR took off from Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, as it headed to Australia. Although this was the world's longest-range aircraft, its maximum range had not yet reached eighteen thousand kilometers. Therefore, the pilot’s flight plan was to first fly to Melbourne, Australia, refuel there, and then fly to Aurous Hill.
Apart from the crew, there were only four passengers on the entire plane at the moment. These four people were Tarlon and the three elders who had just come out of their cultivation in seclusion.
When these three elders went into seclusion more than a hundred years ago, the people of Oskia had just cut off their braids, and they only knew that foreigners had created planes that could fly but they had never flown before.
Now, they were sitting in an extremely luxurious and spacious private plane, effortlessly climbing to an altitude of ten thousand meters. This feeling made the three elders feel a little unsettled for some time.
Tarlon could see that the three elders had been very nervous since the moment the plane's engines started, so he began to comfort them, “Grandpas, don't worry. Today's airplanes are the safest means of transportation in the world, and the technology is very advanced.”
Barlin, the leader of the three elders, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, “Tarlon, this thing made out of metal is flying too high. It's thousands of feet above the clouds. It’s not that I am afraid, but if something were to happen, we might not survive even with our hundred years of cultivation!”
Bowen also couldn't help but tremble as he chimed in, “That’s right, Tarlon! You should ask the guy flying this thing to lower it a bit. An altitude of thirty to fifty feet should be enough for us to feel more at ease.”
Tarlon helplessly explained, “Grandpas, please rest assured. The reason why this airplane is safe is partly because it flies high. The cruising altitude of over 11,000 meters is equivalent to more than 3,000 feet. If there are any malfunctions, with more than 3,000 feet of altitude difference, the plane will have sufficient time to make some adjustments. In other words, even if the engine stalls, with its speed and altitude, it can still glide for dozens to hundreds of kilometers. If it flies only thirty to fifty feet high and something goes wrong before the problem can be determined, the plane will crash to the ground.”
