“I'll give you a lift. You'll go up there.”

“Nonsense. I'm bulkier and heavier than you. Plus, you rescued Lucy just now. It proved you're agile. Go ahead.”

Unexpectedly, Matteo, who was born into an affluent family, rejected Kurt's decision without hesitation.

He was even willing to let the latter step on his shoulder.

Kurt appeared hesitant for a while.

Eventually, he chose to comply with Matteo. He stepped on his shoulders and started digging for the crystals.

Their efficiency increased gradually due to their teamwork.

In the blink of an eye, Kurt's cloth bag was filled to the brim.

“It should be. We have to leave soon. If the next wave hits again, we will be in danger. We are right at the place where it hits.”

Matteo had a keen observation and paid attention to the tiniest details.

Kurt obeyed him right away.
