The Orinthian Knight: The Broodmother’s Awakening P2

He had served many customers that wandered the Ark, yet didn’t expect a ‘supposedly a dilophosaurus’ of all dinos to enter, much less by itself.

Dilo had been given an implant that changed his size, allowing him to sneak into crevices and buildings that most of the Overseer’s minions cannot. He had crafted clothing made of the scales of a Sarcosuchus that had proved a worthy fight for him, and strapped in a hood to cover his head. His years of training allowed him to use weapons to defeat his enemies, primarily a pump-action shotgun.
