Chapter 158: A Day in the Jungle

Gordon's first reaction was that it was impossible! In this day and age, there really could be people who would dare to do such a thing as insurance.

"Aren't they afraid of dying? Pirates are rampant, ships are looted every day, and a steady stream of pirates are born. ”

Gordon finally peeled off a piece of animal skin, which was certainly not complete, even messy, full of blood, fleshy pieces, like rags.

"Actually, no. ”

Leaning against the tree, Gore continued to watch as Gordon began to act on the carcass of the second jaguar.

"You may not know how many ships there are in this world, so many countries, so many people, and all you see is the most chaotic Caribbean, the Mediterranean, the trade between Europe and the Americas, the East Indies, the trade of Africa, how many ships on the sea, every ship has the threat of storms, landings, pirates, and they are very happy to use a certain amount of money to ensure their safety, so that they will not be left with nothing after a single voyage failure. ”

When it comes to this, Gordon really doesn't have a say, and he knows very little about the world at large.

"But is it possible to have insurance for a high-risk vessel like a privateer?"

"When such a thing as insurance is established, it is not surprising that privateers are insured, of course, it is a matter of cost, the greater the risk, the more insurance needs to be paid. ”

Gordon was a little noncommittal, ordinary merchant ships may really have the possibility of receiving insurance money, but privateers, most likely, were directly sunk, killed, and never heard from.

By this time the soldiers had buried the beasts, leaving Gordon half-skinned.

A good prey was turned into a slaughterhouse, and the flesh was flying and miserable.

It was getting late, the sun was setting, and the group was finally getting ready to return to camp.

This operation can be described as very successful, not only to clean up the jaguar, but also more beasts, but when Gordon appeared, he startled Allen, and thought that he was about to die of hemorrhage.

There was fresh water from the soldiers in the camp, and Gordon shoved the bloody hides into Allen's hands, then lifted a bucket of water and poured it over his head.

"Captain, what is this?"

Alan looked at this thing with some disgust, and wanted to throw it directly on the ground.

Crash!

Gordon was drenched in an instant, and the waste water flowing on the ground was filled with the red of blood.

It wasn't cleaned up, but it was only for the time being, and he couldn't afford to waste any more fresh water and not have enough water in the camp.

"Hide, this will do me a lot, by the way, you can help me clean this thing too. ”

"Oh. ”

Alan simply threw it on the ground, and Gordon rinsed it in the water before scooping it up again.

"You're just going to face my orders?"

Gordon stared at Allen, unhappy with the somewhat inflated guy.

"Well, Captain, please don't worry about this detail, at least it's a lot cleaner, isn't it?"

Gordon glared, then snatched it back from Allen's hand and slipped into his own tent.

"Animus!" he muttered, then brought up the production interface.

Health Upgrades:

Consumption: Two skins of the jaguar.

Effect: Increases health by 2.

At this moment, the conditions for production have been met, and Gordon breathes a sigh of relief, before that, he really didn't know if he could still count himself as a production need to peel such a skin.

"Craft!"

With a flash of white light, the two jaguar skins in his hand were gone, replaced by leopard-print underwear that appeared on the figure in the status bar.

“......”

The character shape at the moment is very thunderous, leopard print underwear and gray shark man suit, this combination is simply terrifying, if someone will really wear such a dress in reality, it is definitely a return rate of 3,000 percent!

The character's health bar has become five, but this attribute is hidden, and Gordon does not feel any useful improvement at the moment.

When he walked out of the camp, the hunting team had returned, how abundant the prey in the primeval jungle was, and these animals had never seen a man at all, and they were not afraid that life would bring death, and the soldiers used fancy hunting methods, fishing nets, traps, muskets.

In the middle of the camp at this point, Burton and Gore were already sitting by the fire, looking at the wild boar dressed in wooden sticks on it.

"We didn't find the Spanish camp all day, which is not a good sign. ”

Burton took a sip of cold water, his expression not very good.

At all times, there were sentries in charge of keeping an eye on the surroundings, but there was never any smoke, gunfire, or fire at night.

"Brigadier General, is it possible that the Spaniards have given up, or have they been thrown too far by us?"

Gore could not find a reason for the explanation, only guessing.

"There is a possibility, but it is extremely small, and I am more inclined to the fact that the enemy fully grasped our dynamic position and then avoided it. ”

Burton was a little helpless, these Spaniards were far more cunning than he thought.

"Do you need us to hide our whereabouts?"

......

Gordon found his sailor, who was leaning against a pheasant by another fire, and Alan was the cook.

"Mr. Smith and I had an in-depth discussion on how to roast a pheasant, and although I haven't tried it, the theory is that first of all, we need to bake the skin out of the oil and let the oil soak into the meat......"

Of course, it is true, but it is not used for any eggs, and the skin of the pheasant is directly charred.

The sailors on the side burst into laughter, and Allen at this time was less like a first mate and more like a comedian.

The surrounding sailors were still cleaning up more prey, and the little boar was disemboweled, then skewered with wooden sticks and set directly on the fire.

"Have any of you seen Miss Serena today?"

Gordon walked over and asked, as if he hadn't seen him since he came down from the top of the mountain.

"On the hill to the north, I've seen it before. ”

One of the sailors said this, only to see that Serena had already approached.

"Are you worried about me? Captain Gordon. ”

The sound was like a bell, and it seemed to be a little cheerful, and Mickey was followed by him, carrying two large buckets of water.

"Of course, this is not a place to hang out. ”

He turned his head and looked at Serena, who was still leisurely, and his tone was a little reproachful, he didn't want this woman to run around and cause trouble for everyone.

"Where have you been? I haven't seen you since the afternoon. ”

"On the north side of the hill, I stayed there all the time, the view was great, and I could see the sunset directly. ”

Serena walked briskly, then sat down by the fire, leaving Gordon speechless.

"That's why the beasts of the jungle are not easy to deal with the Spaniards. ”

"Of course, that's why I'm here. ”

She looked at Gordon, her eyes were very pure, but she choked Gordon speechless, you just look at the scenery.
