After destroying the fiend's soul, the trio returned to the intersection and switched paths to the center one, leading to an open area.
When the hallway opened up for them, they found themselves in a large room with a circular platform in the center, surrounded by a deep fall that led to the sewer canal.
Hundreds of pipes met in this room, flowing the sewer water into the underground canal that seemed to go around the vicinity.
Malgaroth's ichor corrupted the entire area. Its black flesh covering the walls and floor, palpitating like a heart.
"Woah, I didn't know our sewer system was this complex…" Zac muttered, slightly surprised at the size of the place.
Dante agreed with his friend, saying that it was indeed impressive while scanning his surroundings.
As the trio walked a little more towards the metal bridge that led to the platform in the center, they felt an overwhelming sense of danger as the umbra got denser.
