At this point, Sheyan stepped forward and showed his face clearly under the illumination of the guardhouse light.

"Hey mateys, I'm Major Seaman, you should recognize me, aye?"

The few guards scrutinized him before whispering to each other.

"Indeed, it's him."

"Hoh, I've heard of his name before."

(Author's note: This is due to legend level +1)

"Heard he did a pretty fine job on the battlefield."

"…"

"…"

That security guard became less stern but still inquired with worry.

"Major sir, I feel bad for asking, but it really isn't a suitable time to patronize Madam Noah in the wee hours of the morning."

Sheyan drooped his face and warned.

"Are you intending to pry into classified military affairs? Should I call for the military police to help me out?"

The guard swallowed his saliva and shrugged his shoulders. Finally, he relented.

The following events were needless to say.

The gang of four didn't bother with knocking on doors. They bluntly climbed to the roof before and then entered by room's balcony. The balcony door was completely devoid of guarding mechanisms.

When Lieutenant Colonel Wester finally felt something was amiss and jolted up from bed, Zi's figure had already vanished from the doorway and into the darkness. When she resurfaced, her crescent dagger was curved around his neck.

This performance caused Sheyan to be rather speechless and even felt a certain misconception. It was as if Zi wasn't a mage type contestant, but an agile close combatant…

Nevertheless, Sheyan knew that her experiences vastly outweigh his. In this cruel realm, relying on exterior looks alone was useless in keeping one alive. This was a woman who strove and succeeded in becoming a party leader, what possibilities could arise if she took a back seat instead?

Sheyan closed the curtains and switched on a lampstand. The light bluntly and directly shone onto Wester's face and revealed his features.

This was a male roughly in his forties. He wasn't muscular, uncommunicative and shrewd as they imagined him to be. Instead, he was a fatty with long sideburns…his belly was as round as a six month pregnancy, and his twin small eyes flickered gloriously.

Wester slowly composed himself, and with the dagger positioned by his neck, he slowly sat up and even lit a cigarette for himself. His tiny eyes filtered around before he spoke.

"Let me guess your intentions? Is it money or the goods? Oh oh! Are y'all here to seek vengeance for Kraam. Yes, fine, I did kill him, but someone else forced me to, I couldn't help it. Besides, he didn't pay us after receiving the goods. Listen, friends, killing me will get you nothing but being hunted down by many others. Why not receive a bag of cash and leave? I guarantee I will not pursue this matter…"

The contestant quartet remained silent. They waited as Wester rambled on for half a day. Sheyan then poured him a glass of water and callously offered.

"Drink, drink and continue speaking."

Instead, the Lieutenant Colonel shut his eyes, but one could see his little eyes shuttering around with doubt.

Soon after, Zi retrieved the ruby ring she harvested from Chedeliarchos Skoa, and tossed it before him. She then icily pronounced.

"Recognize this ring?"

Lieutenant Colonel Wester's complexion immediately turned deathly pale and cried out with a sharp tone.

"You all……how is this even…? I…I…it wasn't me!!"

Zi remained silent as the atmosphere froze with intensity. One could only hear the distinct sounds of Wester's heavy breathing.

Death and horror gripped his body entirely. Deep down he knew, since these guys were here on the affairs of Chedeliarchos Skoa, his chance of living was incredibly minute.

He could sell himself, but such a condition could be effortlessly met by the Chedeliarchos clan as well. Moreover, he definitely couldn't offer as much benefits as th Chedeliarchos clan could!

Right now, Wester was only hoping for this - "Since they hadn't made a move since they entered, they are surely seeking for something. However, the attitude of silence they are adopting is crushing my mind!"

A full ten minutes elapsed. Wester finally broke the silence.

"Fine, what do y'all want?"

Zi coldly declared.

"Listen up, I'll only give you chance to answer. Should I receive a wrong answer, or that you don't know, you know you will die."

Wester's pupils shifted around uneasily.

"But, how will I know if you'll release me afterwards?"

Zi indifferently replied.

"You have no choice. We may be lying or we may not be lying. if you don't answer, you will surely die. If you answer, you still have a shot at surviving. I will ask you now."

Wester casted a bleak smile and replied.

"Okay, ask."

Zi straightforwardly asked.

"Though Chedeliarchos Skoa is an aristocratic wastrel, he is still a learned paleontologist. Alas, his prodigal reputation totally covers this gifted aspect of his. But I know with great certainty, the dinosaur gene carrier, the mosquito embedded in that amber, was in Skoa's hands. However, there wasn't a grain of amber found on his corpse, I would like to know where may it be."

When Wester heard this question, he clearly released a sigh of relief and answered.

"That grain of amber is presently with Hammond. You must know him right? The father of dinosaurs of the legends, the creator of Jurassic Park. Yet bankrupt ever since the park was overrun. But a year ago, he seeked me out and was willing to pay an exorbitant price to procure that grain of amber once again. Coincidentally, I was planning an operation on Chedeliarchos Skoa then, and thus accepted his offer."

Zi emotionlessly replied.

"What you're implying is……you murdered Skoa for another reason and snagged the amber along the way?"

"Yes." Wester beamed with helplessness. "Of course, I can tell you my objective for seeking our Mister Chedeliarchos Skoa as well, however, y'all best prepare to be hunted down at anytime."

Sheyan abruptly interrupted.

"Don't ramble.Wester, how can I verify what you're saying is true?"

Wester immediately replied.

"I record all my conversations with others."

After speaking, Wester picked up a slipper. The gang naturally wasn't worried about him pulling a trick. Wester then slapped the slipper against the wall. There was probably a chip inserted beneath his slipper which triggered a mechanism. Soon after, Wester retrieved a handphone from beneath his bed, and pressed a few buttons before a voice drifted out.

"I'm Hammond, I need that amber."

"Doctor Hammond? Woah, since you're being so frank, I'll cut to the chase as well. After my investigations, I conclude that the grain of amber you want is with Chedeliarchos Skoa. It'll be difficult to extract it from him."

"Listen, Lieutenant Colonel, those big boys of the Cretaceous era are already showing signs of evolution. They should be now slowly mutating into new variations. There will come a day, the human race will perish under their claws and fangs. Therefore, we must eradicate them now before our race becomes extinct."

"Doctor Hammond, I'm sorry but I don't really understand you. Moreover, what is the link between those darn green lizards as this amber?"

"You aren't aware? The dinosaur gene stems from a droplet of blood from the mosquito in the ember. I need that amber to continue research on the blood. Perhaps, I can find a flaw in the dinosaur gene! If I succeed, we can completely eradicate them before they mutate and complement any genetic deficit. It'll be as simple as pesticide fogging mosquitoes."

"Hey, Doctor Hammond. You should know international calls are expensive, therefore let's be frank here, how much are you willing to offer for that amber. That amber should be just like a toy to the only heir of the Chedeliarchos clan."

"……"

"…"

Sheyan glanced at the nodding Zi.

She then shared the notifications she received into the party channel.

[ You receive relevant crucial information ]

[ Main Mission modified: Please retrieve the prime story item from Hammond - the Mosquito Amber! ]

[ Warning: If Hammond successfully publicises his research on the 'Mosquito Amber', it will lead to terribly dire consequences. It can easily lead to a development of a cheap method to annihilate even the deadliest colossal dinosaurs, leading to the collapse of the whole Jurassic world ]

[ Details: You have 48 hours to complete this mission ]

[ Warning: Mission failure will lead to a 33% penalty of all basic attributes, and prohibited entry of all future Jurassic Park Worlds ]

Zi softly muttered.

"Hammond is now a public figure. He should be easy to locate and 48 hours should suffice."

Sheyan nodded and fished out a 'Perfect Dinocrystal' he took from Zi's secret cell.

He then offered it to Lieutenant Colonel Wester.

"This is your remuneration, but I will need to borrow your apartment. In addition to that, you will board a transport and never cease to move for the next 48 hours. Believe it or not, but count it as I've warned you. Also, let me introduce myself, I am Seaman."

Wester brazenly received that single 'Perfect Dinocrystal'. He then carefully sized up Sheyan before earnestly exclaiming.

"So it's you, Major Seaman. I've read about you in my reports before. Since that's the case, then I shall believe you this time. I can bring my personal belongings right?"

"Not an issue." Sheyan replied.

"Also, you best stay as hidden as possible, the less eyes on you, the better."
