"There it is…"
In the end, when faced with the task of actually digging something out, rather than using his fancy new tool—a tool he had a damned tutorial quest for—Theo still ended up using his trusty old shovel and pickaxe.
'What would be the point of all those upgrades if I ended up destroying the very thing I really want to get in an attempt to bring it out of the ground?'
Thankfully, the task of removing the stone and dirt out of the way was easy. The task of pulling this iron-encased beast out of the hole it was in, however, proved not to be all that simple.
"Crap…" Theo didn't hold back when trying to complete his task.
When pulling it out with his hands proved to be impossible, he went ahead and ordered a total of five additional crossbows, only to then dismantle them for the sake of getting their strings out. Then, after binding them together, he attempted to pull the statue out of the ditch.
