My location in the scene is the Bunker, there are many light sources in the form of wall lamps. There are more than 8 of them. Therefore, you need to be able to render more than 8 lights in the scene. How to achieve this?

Have you tried adding more than 8 lights to the scene?
The 8 light limit is not about only 8 lights allowed in scene, it's a mesh can only by affected by the nearest 8 lights.
Take this as an example: let's suppose your bunker is one mesh, ok? So, you place 9 lights inside of it. The bunker, being one mesh, will only be affected by 8 of the 9 lights. The 9th light will only affect other meshes, since your bunker has already reached its limit.
One way to circumvent this would be to divide your bunker into several parts, as if it were a modular system. Each part can be affected by 8 different lights.
Another way would be to change the rendering path from Forward to Deferred. The latter is precisely for when you need more than 8 lights on scene.
