"Looks like we might have stumbled upon its treasure!" Mortimer whispered, excitement creeping into his voice. "If we can find a way to distract it, we might be able to slip out with some loot!" 

Alex smirked, "You know, like a wormy heist. Just imagine it— 'Worms Gone Wild: The Crystal Caper!'" 

Mortimer blinked, clearly puzzled. "Worms... what now? Is that some sort of underground expression?" He shook his head, realizing it was probably just a joke. "Never mind. Let's focus on the distraction." 

Alex chuckled, "Yeah, because nothing says 'successful heist' like a confused mole and a worm who's never stolen anything in his life!" 

As Alex contemplated their next move, a panel suddenly flickered to life in his mind, displaying detailed information about the Tunnel Wrecker. He blinked in surprise as the screen materialized, showcasing the creature with vibrant visuals.
