Chapter 214:
There were still massive numbers of ghouls active in the tunnels of the “third level” of the sewers, including some elite undead transformed by the strengthened Netherworld Aura. However, due to the successive deaths of the “Plague Rat King” and the Plague Ghoul Overlord, these undead creatures lost control from the source.
They reverted from their previous frenzied charges back to aimless wandering.
Especially after the survivors with life force were transferred out, no longer sensing the presence of “food” made them quiet down again. The undead are usually quiet most of the time, unless you provoke them or they get “hungry”.
But the sight of so many ghouls gathered together was quite terrifying, even to the point of worrying Murphy.
He knew that what he saw before him wasn’t even the total of all the corpses in the sewers.
In the honeycomb-like stone caverns, there were even more corpses that had been moved here undergoing the infusion and transformation of death spirit energy. Natalie said that for the Plague Ghoul Overlord to be born smoothly, the Plague Rat King had used dark magic here, enveloping the area in massive amounts of death spirit energy and Netherworld Aura, which would be difficult to dispel in a short time.
Therefore, this sewer cavern must be sealed off and isolated from the surface!
If this isn’t done, perhaps in no time at all, more combinations of ghouls, water ghosts, and wraiths would once again fill the recently cleared first level of the sewers.
But if it’s completely sealed off, these undead creatures won’t be able to naturally perish either. With the continuous strengthening of the Netherworld Aura, perhaps after a few months, Murphy would have to organize another little player cleanup of the sewer caverns, and by then he might be facing nearly 10,000 fully elite undead.
