For Monk's benefit, Doc was translating Ja'
s conversation.
"They were here to mine the platinum!" Monk muttered. "Say, Doc, how are we gonna get pornogateway com our share of that platinum?"
"You'd better concentrate on how we're going to get out of here, alive," Doc advised pornogateway com him. "Anyway, it belongs to these people." He waved an arm pornogateway com at the Phantom City dwellers pornogateway com on the rafts ahead of them.
"pornogateway com if pornogateway com you wish it, they will be glad to give it all to you pornogateway com as a reward pornogateway com for saving them from the White pornogateway com Beasts," Ja
