"Ding! You have earned a victory, and your rating for this match is SSS!"
"Reward received: 30 training cones, 15 energy drinks, 5 medical bandages, 5 blue fragments, 2 purple fragments, 3 player drops"
Holy moly!
Jackpot!
Player drops are pretty much the best rewards.
Three years ago, I got two player drops.
This time it's three, and there's so much more stuff.
I guess last time the system was helping me cheat by lowering the difficulty, so it reduced the rewards too.
Deng Kai checked the details of each reward.
"Training cones: Train till death do us part! For one hour, your training efficiency is tripled (effects cannot be stacked)."
"Energy drink: Keep the music playing, keep on dancing! For one hour, speed up the recovery of stamina and energy (effects cannot be stacked)."
"Medical bandages: Get to the hospital, or your wounds will heal! Speeds up the recovery of minor injuries (effects cannot be stacked)."
"Blue fragment: Collect 20 to draw for a player-level skill."
"Purple fragment: Collect 20 to draw for a star-level skill."
"Gold fragment: Collect 20 to draw for a legendary-level skill."
Wow!
These are all awesome stuff.
Let's not even talk about the three types of fragments, those in the know, know; this is the cutthroat stuff that Sima Tengxun and Sima Wang Yi invented and amplified!
The training cones and energy drinks are really powerful.
These items are totally made for workaholics.
Time to go full 007.
The bandages are useful too.
Train too much, and you're bound to get injured.
A scrape here, a bruise there.
A real professional player might avoid serious injuries, but minor ones are constant.
The system is really conscientious.
It's done a very good job of putting people first.
Finally, with excitement, Deng Kai began to check out the player drops.
"Let's see which player didn't keep their stuff safe!"
"Guardiola's Tears (Wearable): Guardiola sees his younger self in you, but he believes you have significant room to improve your vision. When worn, your vision is forcibly upgraded to level 8."
Deng Kai was stunned.
This 'Gua' is a grateful one.
In the system panel, regular data values range from 1-100.
Most of Deng Kai's stats are around forty or fifty.
And for vision, left foot, right foot, injury resistance, and duration of form, the range is 1-10.
Deng Kai's vision is at 3.
On a small field, that vision is considered excellent.
But on an adult's full-sized field, this level is pretty trash.
Basically, you need at least a 5 to be passable, while 6 or 7 is needed to play midfield, and 8 or above is considered to have great vision.
This drop instantly took Deng Kai's vision to the level of a midfield maestro.
And this drop is different from the previous ones. "The Dutchman's Applause" and "Young Ronaldo's Flame of Revenge" were consumables.
But this time, "Guardiola's Tears" is a wearable item.
These effects are usually stronger.
Currently, the system has given Deng Kai three equipment slots.
If he gets more items later, he might face some tough choices.
In different matches, he will have to choose which items to wear.
But no matter what the match, "Guardiola's Tears" is indispensable.
Unless there comes something like Xavi's Glasses or Pirlo's Sleepy Eyes...
What else is there?
"Young Ronaldo's Hidden Resentment: You have defeated young Ronaldo again, making him feel the threat from a peer. Although he won't admit it, he will be noticeably aware of you when dribbling and may deliver you a clever pass on a small chance."
Damn, son!
How many drops am I going to get from Ronaldo?
If this continues, could I get "The Steely Gaze" too?
But fair is fair, this drop, once used, really holds some value.
Because unless it's a surprise, Deng Kai is most likely joining Sporting Lisbon.
Even though many teams will be pursuing him after this, just like three years ago when powerful teams were as common as dirt and strong teams were worthless.
But Deng Kai won't forget how Trigella took care of him over these three years.
Chinese people remember kindness!
Moreover, Sporting Lisbon really does have a knack for nurturing young players, so it's a good match.
Figo, Simon, Quaresma, Ronaldo, Nani, and others had high success rates.
Of course, this drop also implies something else.
That is, during this period, Ronaldo really disliked passing.
Because he didn't need to.
He could solve all problems by himself.
Last season, he dominated the Portugal U12 league, scoring over seventy goals in a single season and locking in the golden boot early on.
And that was even after the youth coach controlled Ronaldo's playtime in the second half of the season due to too many complaints from the parents of opposing young players.
```
If he lets loose, scoring one hundred or two hundred depends entirely on his mood.
After all, Ronaldo was a fierce player who scored a hat-trick in a match against geniuses a year or two older than himself!
As for the third soccer star's fall…
"Black Panther Hunt: You've caught the attention of the legendary soccer star Eusebio, the Black Panther. Explosiveness +3, Shooting +3, Tackling +3, Interception +3, and you've acquired the Purple Star skill 'Black Panther Hunt'."
"Black Panther Hunt: In the first three seconds of gaining possession in the attacking half, your shooting ability is significantly increased."
Tsk, tsk, tsk!
Dominant!
Old-school legends sure are dominant!
Johann Cruyff, take a leaf out of Eusebio's book! He gives both attribute points and skills. How powerful!
Remember to change it next time!
Eusebio was fast and accurate with his shots, making his counterattacks after a forward steal particularly sharp, like a hunting black panther that would easily claim the opponent's life.
The skill "Black Panther Hunt" will greatly increase Deng Kai's defensive counterattacking ability in the attacking half.
Of course, what Deng Kai values most is the part of the skill that says "shooting ability is significantly increased."
How significant is this 'significant'?
The only strict condition is that possession must change; it's not enough if a teammate holds the ball for a while and then passes to Deng Kai for a shot.
…
After collecting the rewards, Deng Kai also took the opportunity to check his own dismal data panel.
How should I put this... you know stocks, right?
If the data panel were a stock dashboard, then Deng Kai would be ecstatic.
Because it's all red.
But unfortunately, in the football system, red represents low data, yellow represents medium data, and green represents high data.
The deeper the color, the more severe the degree.
And Deng Kai's panel is dripping red!
