As soon as he entered the game, Gu Moli had the urge to curse.
"Why is there another ridiculous condition of escaping, such as surviving?"
"Lead a naval battle? Defeat a pirate king?"
"Is there any other great secret treasure or something like that?"
Ignored Gu Moli's complaints.
The game started smoothly. After a flash of white light, Gu Moli found himself wearing a handsome military uniform, holding a rifle and wearing a military cap. He was standing upright on a street. Gentlemen and noble ladies in gorgeous clothes walked by one after another.
Judging from the sense of age and the background introduction of the game.
"Probably during the New Route period."
There was also such a period in the history of the real world. The explosive development of maritime trade, the development of overseas colonies, and the opening of new sea routes triggered the world's yearning for the ocean. However, there must be darkness behind the light. Piracy and slave trade also reached their peak in that era.
"Let's walk around first."
After sorting out his thoughts, Gu Moli simply carried his rifle and strolled on the street like every patrol soldier.
Follow the system prompts.
This should be the royal naval port of the Mahwah Dynasty.
It is also the headquarters of the Royal Navy of Movo. Even the six most rampant pirate forces in the Bahamas dare not wreak havoc in the waters near the naval port.
And as the navy's base.
The level of prosperity here has far exceeded the level of a military port. The part outside the naval base can be called a city.
Elegant gentlemen and ladies were chatting on the street, horse-drawn carriages were passing by, clerks were hawking goods in the small shops on both sides of the street, and ragged street boys were selling the latest issue of newspapers. Gu Moli walked for almost a block and could not see any trace of war.
In addition to himself, many patrol soldiers were deserting.
Gu Moli even saw a tall soldier showing off his rifle to a curious noble lady, bragging about his glorious history of fighting pirates.
This can only fool those noble ladies.
It is common sense to know that there are only three types of soldiers who will be sent to garrison in the naval port. One is the army, one is the navy who has committed a crime, and the other is the children of nobles who will never go to sea.
So the guy who was flirting with girls might not have ever been on a ship in his life, let alone fighting pirates. Hearing this, Gu Moli wanted to go up and slap that guy.
It’s definitely not because the other person is handsome.
And just at this moment.
"That guy over there!"
"You! And you! Come here!"
Gu Moli turned his head and saw a blonde woman wearing a tight whalebone skirt and a sun hat, with her hands on her hips, looking at him and the flirting boy with raised eyebrows.
"I?"
Gu Moli pointed at himself.
"Nonsense! Of course it's you!"
"come over!"
The guy who was flirting with the girl next to him had come over by now and nodded respectfully to the blonde: "Here I come."
Then he nudged Gu Moli with his elbow.
"What are you standing there for?"
"... ..ah."
Gu Moli understood after hearing this.
No surprise.
This blonde woman must have a very important status in the Royal Naval Port.
So Gu Moli immediately adjusted his state, showing a typical servile expression, and followed the flirting boy to the front of the blonde woman.
"To be valued by the beautiful Miss Jenny, the well-known pearl of our country."
"It's my pleasure."
How can he flirt with girls
I am not at all ashamed to talk about this conversation.
With his tall stature and handsome face, even the originally arrogant blonde lady couldn't help but smile, and the atmosphere immediately eased.
After all, men are not the only ones who like to hear compliments from beautiful women.
Beautiful girls also like to hear handsome guys praise her for her beauty.
"I'm going to put on a play at a party."
"You two."
"Come be my actor."
As soon as the words fell, the flirting guy and Gu Moli were stunned: "Actor?"
"That's right."
Jenny, the blonde woman known as the Pearl of the Sea, nodded and said, "I tried all the actors I thought were the best, but none of them met my requirements. After thinking about it, I think only soldiers like you can play the roles I require."
"Can you tell me what role it is?"
“It’s very simple.”
Jenny frowned and thought for a moment, then pointed at the guy who was flirting with the girl and said, "You play the navy."
Then he pointed at Gu Moli and said, "You play the pirate."
"I'm going to stage a big drama where Admiral Isaac defeats one of the six pirate kings, the lunatic Maya."
“… … ..”
The corner of Gu Moli's mouth twitched slightly. There was no doubt that Miss Jenny, who was of a very high status, wanted the pick-up boy to be the admiral of the navy and herself to be the pirate king. If the pick-up boy was chosen because he was tall and handsome, then why did she choose herself
Do you look like a villain
"What are you waiting for?"
"My friends will be coming to see my play tomorrow, and I need you to start rehearsing right away."
"Any questions?"
The flirting guy nodded immediately: "Of course not!"
"Your command is my pursuit."
"Beautiful Miss Jenny."
"very good."
Seeing how good the guy was at flirting with girls, Jenny couldn't help but smile. She looked at him with a look of favor, but her eyes towards Gu Moli seemed indifferent.
"After the performance, if the response is good, I will naturally not be stingy with the reward."
"My pleasure."
The guy who was flirting with the girl smiled very gracefully.
Gu Moli had a Sima face throughout.
no way.
He is really not good at doing this kind of thing to seduce girls.
Following Jenny all the way through the street, the three of them finally arrived at the door of a huge villa. At the entrance of the garden, an old gentleman in a black suit was standing there with a serious face.
"Miss."
"You're messing around again."
"Sorry, sorry."
Jenny apologized insincerely, then pointed at the flirting boy and Gu Moli behind her and said, "This is the actor I found on the street. My father's guards won't let me use him, so it should be okay for me to use these patrolmen, right? This is what you and my father promised me."
"nature."
The old gentleman remained expressionless as he glanced at the flirting boy and Gu Moli. When his eyes fell on the tall and handsome flirting boy, his expression seemed very gentle, and when his eyes fell on Gu Moli, although his expression did not seem to change, Gu Moli could sense the other party's indifference.
Damn it.
Handsome guys just have the bonus of charm.
"Gentlemen, what are your names?"
Facing the old gentleman's scrutinizing gaze and questioning, the flirting boy calmly performed a standard aristocratic gesture:
"Swad Nosawiya."
"Oh?"
The old gentleman's eyes lit up: "Nossawiya... Are you a noble?"
"My father is a humble man, serving as a vice admiral in the navy. This time I just came out to get some fresh air, but I didn't expect to be valued by the distinguished Miss Jenny."
"I see. It seems you are trying to appease the young lady."
"How could that be? It is the wish of every young man in the naval port to serve the beautiful Miss Jenny."
"Hahaha."
Having said that, the old gentleman's gaze towards Swade suddenly became gentler.
"So... what about this young man?"
Here comes the problem.
How should I introduce myself at this time
The Chinese name Gu Moli is obviously not in line with the historical context, and the game name Fireworks Are Easy to Cool seems out of place.
If that's the case... ..
"... .Jack."
Gu Moli paused, then raised the corner of his mouth: "My name is Jack Sparrow."
The old gentleman thought about it and made sure that he had never heard of the name Sparrow among the aristocracy. The expression on his face became completely dull, and the little interest he had originally had disappeared. However, he did not show any contempt, but waved his hand naturally.
"Very well, Jack, and Mr. Sward, please follow me."
“It’s a play after all.”
"You need to put on some makeup before rehearsal."
Hearing these two completely different names, Gu Moli's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly again.
Damn it.
This is a society that values appearance.
