What was the outcome of the Fray Marcos de Niza expedition?

Fray Marcos de Niza did not enter or bring treasure back from the cities he sought. He reported that he had seen the city of Cíbola from a distance and described it as wealthy, including claims about gold. This is why choice D, “He saw the cities from a distance and claimed he saw gold in his report for the viceroy,” is correct.
