Chapter 1081 Reconvening

It took nearly an hour before Lilia's team arrived at the sewer entrance and another twenty minutes after that for Mrazivý's group.

After asking them about it, Marcus learned that both groups were attacked by a nearly endless wave of undead monsters.

Most of them had been weak, but some among the hordes were quite strong. Being unable to use any wide range attacks without collapsing a large section of the sewer system, it had proven a timely endeavor to fight their way through.

"They were awfully persistent. It wasn't until we got close enough to call for your aid that they finally retreated and gave up on chasing us." Lilia said with a huff.

While most of the monsters down here were merely shambling corpses, a few still possessed some amount of intelligence. When it became clear that it would be impossible to stop Lilia and her team, they retreated instead of allowing the entirety of their forces to be wiped out.
