In the deepest chamber of the sewage system lay a vast hall, constructed with large sandstone and adorned with murals and architectural designs reminiscent of the Qin or Ming dynasty.

The faded murals seemed to narrate a tale from a long-forgotten era, a time of great war between beings of immense power, abominations, and supernatural entities. The conflict resulted in a mutual annihilation of the three forces, leaving behind a desolate landscape forever scarred by the cataclysmic explosion that marked the war's end.

Within this chamber stood two figures beside a large demonic magic circle, crudely drawn with human blood. In one corner, a small hill of lifeless human corpses lay heaped, their blood drained and used like expendable materials in some dark factory.
