Duanmu Huai had no idea what was happening above, and he had no interest in finding out.
For Duanmu Huai, what he needed to do now was destroy the ritual's core. As for the issues above, he would leave them to Kevin and the others to handle. After all, this country was blessed by Sigma, not by him. Could the fate of the Empire be any of his concern? Was Sigma expecting to fleece him?
Not to mention, Duanmu Huai was busy himself!
Although he didn't know what was happening above, shortly after, a large group of Plague creatures rushed from the other side of the sewer and launched an attack on Duanmu Huai and the others. It must be said that for these beings, whose bodies were already rotten and stinking, the sewer was their home field. The mere sight of these creatures, covered in the filth of the sewer yet utterly unperturbed, was enough to cause anyone to lose their mind.
