Corpse monsters kept crawling out of the Octagonal Well.
Everyone prepared for battle. Feng Shuang gave the order:
"Kill!"
In an instant, the investigators raised their ritual implements and charged forward.
They launched a direct encirclement from all four directions.
Forget letting those corpse monsters rush out and attack them—they were basically slain the moment they poked their heads out...
Their "Awoo, awoo" howls continued without end, but the sounds soon faded away.

And one that was supremely yin and frigid...
"Captain, there may be some yin treasure down there. Let me go down and take a look."

"Got it, Captain!"
With that, he took out a rope.
