October 17th, clear skies, Rest Day.
The Rest Day is fixed, occurring on the same day every month. All institutions under the Court, when conditions allow, suspend operations or leave only a few people to handle emergencies; the rest can rest at home.
However, Shen Hao couldn't calm down even on this Rest Day. Because the Xuanqing Guard hasn't been peaceful these days—there's still no clue about what happened over in Tu Kui City. Hundreds of Xuanqing Guards can only wait anxiously outside that massive Restriction; no one dares to go in recklessly.
The second batch of array experts sent from Thousand Households Station, along with the previous three, studied it together for two days, but the results were minimal—they only managed to push forward half a li. The target, "Caiyuan Village", was still over fifteen li away.
One could say the progress was negligible.
