Chapter 24 : The long-lost feeling of dopamine secretion is back!
"Rust, teach that ignorant Chinese kid a lesson!"
"Rusty, I'm betting a week's food allowance on you to win, so don't screw me over!"
"Rusty, your chance for revenge has come!"
The school team members nearby were cheering Rusty on with laughter.
Rusty said proudly, "Don't worry, I won't lose this time! As long as I beat this Chinese guy today, I will confess my feelings to Sophie's best friend Susanna after school, and I will definitely succeed! Hahaha!"
Gu Ran couldn't help but laugh secretly: What kind of elementary school logic is this? Whether you can win in a one-on-one match has nothing to do with confessing your love to Susanna? Where is my metaphysics?
Rusty bar roared in a gruff voice: "Hey, that Chinese boy, are you ready? If you are ready, tell me, don't say I didn't give you time to prepare!"
Gu Ran stretched his ankles and took a deep breath of the natural grass. "I'm as prepared as I can be."
"Okay! I'm starting! Feel the crushing feeling of a human tank!"
Rusty roared and ran with the ball from the center circle.
To be honest, he started very slowly and his speed was not very fast, but with his height of 1.88 meters and weight of 93 kilograms, he was indeed quite intimidating when he ran.
Gu Ran, who had experience in baseball, easily predicted Rusty's route of advance.
Rusty had no intention of disguising or changing his route, and he just pushed straight forward from the middle.
This involves absolutely no skill, relying purely on physical impact.
This rough style of play is also one of the characteristics of British football.
In the beginning, English football and rugby were one and the same, sharing the same set of rules.
It wasn't until a Masonic tavern meeting in 1863 that football and rugby were officially separated.
However, the playing style of British amateur football teams still has the toughness of rugby in its bones.
Facing the straight-line collision of the rusty strips, Gu Ran was not afraid at all and went straight to face him head-on!
This was exactly the confrontation that head coach Carter wanted to see.
If you want to play football in the UK and cannot integrate into this rough culture, it will be difficult to be noticed.
Seeing Gu Ran rushing up like this, Rusty was overjoyed. He half turned around to protect the ball and at the same time used his strong shoulder to hit Gu Ran.
This trick seems simple, but it is actually very practical.
As long as Gu Ran chooses to dodge, Rusty will immediately shake Gu Ran off and drive in the opposite direction.
And if Gu Ran didn't choose to dodge, then... Hahaha!
——In Rusty's opinion, with Gu Ran's thin and frail body, he would definitely not dare to collide with him.
Not only Rusty thought so, but other players and even coach Carter, who was sitting in his seat with his lips pursed, thought so.
However, something happened that shocked everyone -
Gu Ran didn't hesitate at all, nor did he slow down or change lanes, he accelerated and crashed into the rusty strip!
"You're looking for death?!"
Rusty bar screamed fiercely, and his sturdy arms turned into elbow strikes!
In the official arena, this is an absolute foul!
However, in this kind of testing situation, no one will care!
At the moment when Rusty was about to throw his elbow, Gu Ran first locked himself in place with one foot, and at the same time slightly lowered his center of gravity, avoiding Rusty's elbow, and used his shoulder to hit Rusty's exposed ribs!
Bang!
The two of them collided heavily and then bounced apart!
Rusty Strip was totally unprepared and was knocked five steps away by Gu Ran.
Gu Ran was also bounced three steps away by the impact of the rusty strip!
This guy... is so fucking strong!
Gu Ran was secretly amazed.
Gu Ran's collision just now not only had the skill bonus of reasonable collision +1, but also a bonus of 60 points of strength, an inertia bonus of high-speed start, and a bonus of his experience in playing baseball in his previous life!
Moreover, in terms of the parts that contact each other, the rust strips are at a greater disadvantage.
More importantly, Rusty Strip collided with the enemy without fully understanding it, and only used 70% to 80% of its strength at most.
But Gu Ran had just given it his all!
Even with such an all-out effort, he only pushed the rusty strip back two more steps!
The level of youth football training in the UK is really not an exaggeration.
But... this kind of tit-for-tat confrontation is really refreshing!
Gu Ran felt that his blood was burning!
While Rusty was still confused, Gu Ran quickly stabilized his body balance, caught up with the football that was still rolling towards the penalty area, and kicked the ball back to the midfield with a big foot.
Winner!
Gu Ran sighed happily!
The long-lost feeling of dopamine secretion is back!
All the school team players at the scene exclaimed in disbelief.
Who could have thought that this one-on-one duel would have such an outcome?
Everyone thought that the Chinese boy would use close defense techniques to stick to Rusty Strip, forcing him to slow down, and then look for loopholes in Rusty Strip's dribbling to steal the ball or make a tackle.
However, the Chinese boy did not use close defense at all, nor did he use conventional kicks to steal the ball or make a tackle. Instead, he directly engaged in a head-on physical confrontation with Rusty Strip!
This is simply... riding on the face!
Rusty is a 1.88-meter-tall, 93-kilogram human tank!
And what about that Chinese guy?
Judging from his appearance, he is about 1.8 meters tall and weighs no more than 75 kilograms!
In a one-on-one fight, a man with a body like Rusty was actually eaten alive by the opponent?
What the hell is going on?
The players on the school team started to curse:
"Fuck! Rusty, what the hell are you doing?"
"Damn it, I really can't trust you! You always fail at the critical moment! You are just a rusty spring!"
"Rusty, are you acting like a fool? Just to cheat your father out of a week's food expenses, right?"
"Rusty, don't confess your love to Susanna! There's no way it will succeed!"
"Rust, if you love acting so much, why do you still play football? Wouldn't it be better to act in a romantic action movie?"
"Fuck! Shut the fuck up!" Rusty rubbed his ribs and yelled with a red face, "What happened just now doesn't count! I still have a chance to confess my feelings to Susanna!"
"Light~"
"Feeling 58 points of negative emotions from Chris Dick, the system is generating bubbles..."
A white, ordinary bubble formed at the foot of the rust strip.
Gu Ran frowned: Here it comes!
Gu Ran walked up to the front of the rusty strip, took the opportunity to touch the white bubble with his toes, and said seriously: "Rusty strip, thank you, so this is the real football."
"Fuck..." Rusty's nose was about to be crooked by anger!
The white bubbles burst brilliantly under Gu Ran's touch, turning into a dazzling light thread that merged into Gu Ran's body.
"Light~"
"Host has picked up the results from the ordinary bubble: physical training +10 hours, today's picking progress 4/10."
Gu Ran suddenly felt relaxed all over. The physical strength that had just been consumed in the head-on collision was also restored a little due to the improved training results.
This is all the result of Rusty's hard work and exhaustion!
It's only right to say thank you to him.
Gu Ran laughed secretly in his heart.
Rusty said angrily, "What happened just now doesn't count! Chinese boy, don't get complacent! I was careless just now! I didn't use my full strength at all! Coach! I beg for another chance! If I lose again, I will do two hundred... no, three hundred frog jumps!"
The rust strips bid for themselves!
