An entire day later.
As Xiaoyun and his army stopped, they were only two-thirds of the way to the Human Bridge.
The sun had moved from one side of the horizon to the other, and the moon had already risen in the east.
Around them were several buildings along a highway, with all of their doors completely busted open.
Dried blood stains could be seen almost at every footstep, indicating Xiaoyun's army had already cleared them in the past.
Xiaoyun ordered one of the Colonels to occupy the buildings as a scouting tower, and the rest of the army began setting up camp.
"I'm so tired..." Kate yawned, barely having any energy left in her body as she put down her backpack.
"You can sleep in early if you want. You don't have to follow me later. I'm just going to walk around for a bit."
As Xiaoyun began unpacking his backpack, several soldiers came to offer help, but he rejected their offer.
