Lin Mu remembered Elyon talking about the tournaments. Back then it seemed like irrelevant local gossip. Now it was affecting them directly.
Daoist Chu rubbed his forehead. "I suppose that explains the increased crowd around town."
The clerk nodded. "As the expected traffic is extremely high, all mid and major routes are prioritized. Only worlds with consistent traffic remain connected at this time. Minor worlds, especially those far from the main flow, have their arrays deactivated to conserve resources and maintain stability during the influx."
Lin Mu asked calmly, "How many people typically travel to Khwanzim World each month?"
The clerk checked the records. "In the last twelve months, only eleven parties traveled there. Less than one per month. It is among the least used routes connected to this outpost."
Daoist Chu let out a slow exhale. "So the route was chosen for suspension."
