The results were perfect.
With Lugia helping out,
the trip through Glittering Cave went incredibly smoothly.
Heiduo practically turned into a merciless digging machine. Under the dumbfounded gazes of countless prospectors nearby, all hoping to strike it rich by digging up fossils, he unearthed buried fossils one piece after another.
Their eyes went green with envy.
They wanted nothing more than to rush over and snatch them away.
Damn, damn, damn!
They might not dig up a single fossil after years of work, yet this guy showed up and made it look like fossils were everywhere?!
