Lester looks at Lupin with a face that screams, are you serious. "And then what?" Lester asked.
Lupin shrugged and said, "Eh, we'll just wing it."
"Are you serious?"
"Yep"
"You know what, fine," Lester said as he threw his arms up in the air.
Lupin smiled and turn to face Basil who was wielding his warhammer and said, "Do the deed, Basil."
Basil grinned as he swings his hammer onto the wall leaving a human-sized hole.
"There's our entrance boys so let's go!"
The three men and beastman ran through the hole and ran past the walls.
Once they were past the wall Lupin said, "Drake, lit the bomb."
"On it boss."
Drake lit the fuse of the bomb and then threw it shouting, "Cover your ears!"
The three men and beastman cover their ears and then.

The four mercenaries look at each other confused.
"Why didn't the bomb blew up?"
"Did ya lit the fuse properly Drake?"
"How annoying, don't put the blame on me, I lit the fuse with only lighter we have."
Lester groaned. "Great, the bomb didn't blow up and we broke the wall on our way in, you do know that what we did count as treason right? The guards are gonna arrested us, then we'll be put on trial and then be sentenc—"

*6 Hours Later*
We find mercenaries in the middle of another forest panting.
"*Pant, Pant* W-we got away right?" Lestor said he sit on the ground.
"*Pant, Pant* I...I think so." Basil replied as he fell onto his butt.
"*Pant, Pant* Where we're going next?" asked Drake.
Lupin took a look around his surrounding before responding, "We're going to the Lunar Kingdom or a somewhere barely anyone knows about."
"Why the Lunar Kingdom?"
"Because they don't ask too much question."
Drake nodded.
"And they have that one knight who is equivalent to a platinum rank."
The Lunar Kingdom.
A mostly neutral kingdom that keeps to themselves and is very powerful for they have a knight that was the equivalent to a platinum rank adventurer.
Adventurer.
People who register with the Adventurer's Guild and took on requests that were posted there and explored dungeons. They were was in different ranks.
Bronze - Beginner and the weakest of the adventurer.
Iron - They could take on a squad of village guardsmen.
Sliver - They could take on the entire city guardsmen without trouble.
Gold - Could defeat a small army.
Platinum - Could take on an entire army.
"So, what do we have."
Lupin asked.
Lester pulls a flip phone and a bag of coins.
Drake took a look at the flip phone and said, "Flip phone was popular in 1995 before being replaced by smartphones that were powered by both magic and science."
Lester just glared at Drake.
"We also have 50 bronze coins and 2 silver coins."
Silence came upon the four.
"So...We're broke." Basil said.
"Oh please, we're always broke Basil," Lester said.
Lupin just signed.
"We could find a nearby town and register at the Adventurer's Guild," Drake said.

"Any objection?"
"No."
"None"
Lupin nodded and then said, "Before we set off to find a town, we should make a camp here and then set out next morning."
"I'll get sticks," Lester said.
"I'll get food," Basil said.
*Grooowwwl*
"I'm hungry."
"Goddammit, Basil."
"Drake and I will be setting traps and set our sleeping bags," Lupin said.
"Why me."
"Because you'll just laze around and sleep your ass all day."
"How annoying."
*1 hour later*
"PUT IT OUT, PUT IT OUT!"
Lester yelled while running with his armor on fire.
"WELL STAY STILL, AND DON'T BE ANNOYING!"
*splash*
Lester shooked his head and sign in relief.
"Why do you have to be so annoying," Drake said.
"Well, you try to be on fire!" Lester yelled.
"You wouldn't be on fire if you stay and let m—"
"Are you two done."
Two turn and saw Lupin with an annoyed face and has his arms crossed.
"If you two are done go to sleep, cause we need to set out next morning."
""Yes boss""
Lupin turns around and walks away from the two and just went to sleep in his sleeping bag, but not before thinking, 'What could go wrong tomorrow'.

Bone And Amber: The Inside Story On The Return Of The Dinosaurs
A miracle has been achieved: non-avian, Mesozoic dinosaurs have been brought back to life - not by a technical university or a government programme, but by a venture capitalist concern, for reasons of profit. The social, economic, and political ripples of this development will do much more than enable the simple launch of a theme park for the rich: they will change the world. FAQ: Do I need to know anything about the Jurassic Park franchise to enjoy this? No. This story is not exactly a Jurassic Park fanfic - it is a story about the de-extinction of Mesozoic dinosaurs. While the story begins with some of the events depicted in the Jurassic Park universe, it is very much its own creature, and designed for readers with no prior knowledge of the franchise. It will begin to diverge quite quickly, as well: the dramatic focus will not be on people running around tropical islands trying to be eaten. The whole point of the exercise is to explore the profound consequences and ripples an event like the mass-cloning of extinct animals would generate.Do I need to know anything about dinosaurs to enjoy this? Also no! Sensing a theme yet? Although, if I’ve done my homework correctly, a newbie to the subject will be able to pick up something - not just about the animals themselves, but about their role as a vehicle to better understand the history of life on Earth, and the application of the scientific method to a sadly fragmentary puzzle.Without further ado, please enjoy!
