We went back to our base and reported to Kyle what happened. Kyle was furious after hearing what happened. After we came out of his office Lucus praised me for taking a quick decision at that time and also thanked me. I said it was nothing and went to my house. Those who are in any of the mentioned teams are given a private house. Others who do not have any good skills are given a sleeping bag.
We did not have any other mission for the next day. We were only said to be dispatched if anything strange is happening around our base. I took this time to go out of the base and tame a Dilo. Normally in the game, you have to knock out the Dilos before taming them but this is different from a game.
Maybe that's why the Rising Phoenix were only able to tame 2 Dilos. If you knock out the Dilos their favourability of you will reduce so they will ask for a lot of dinosaur meat before getting tamed. If I can tame one without knocking it out I only need to use a quarter of the meat spent by the guild and I learnt it through my unique skill of course.
I heard that the other members went out to tame another Dilo. Only half of them were allowed to go, if all of them went there will be no one to guard the base. I went to the location where Colt was killed and there were still 2 Dilos near that area, each of them being in the direction opposite to one another. I chose to tame the Dilo with more level and I chose to tame the level 40 Dilo.
When the Dilo saw me it shot its poison spit towards me. I barely dodged it thanks to my reaction speed being 20 times the normal person's reaction speed. I quickly threw meat in its direction and it chose to eat the meat. The other Dilo was level 50 so I was planning on taming the other one but the other Dilo was not hungry. If a Dilo is not in a hungry state my plan is worthless.
Fortunately, the level 40 Dilo was in a hungry state and was going to hunt a nearby Dodo. I used this chance to get its attention and that explains my situation. The Dilo went for the meat and started eating it. After eating 10 of my raw meat it didn't show any hostility towards me. I kept giving it raw meat until I heard a sound say "Congratulations on taming a Dilo ".
I made a saddle for Dilo using Rawhide after all riding a dinosaur without a saddle is not comfortable since I have experience of that with my Parasaur. I was planning on making a Parasaur saddle but unfortunately, my Parasaur died. After I sat on it I was able to look at my Dilo's stats. Its stats were higher than mine. My level went up to level 5 and I had 20 unallocated stat points.
I ordered it to shoot poisonous spit on a Dodo and it did as I said. The Dodo died but its meat became corroded meat. It had a really bad smell so I put it in my inventory for now. I should be careful with using the poisonous spit.
I achieved what I came for so it was time to call it a day and go back to the base and get some rest is what I had planned. When I was on my way back I saw smoke coming from the direction of our base.
