At 5:30 in the morning, Su Dong was walking aimlessly on the streets of Lisbon, feeling like an overturned condiment plate.
He didn't know how to describe his feelings at this moment, or who to tell about his experience.
He had been walking along this brightly lit and spacious street for half an hour without encountering a single pedestrian. Only the occasional passing vehicle and the unfamiliar license plate number reminded him.
He has traveled through time.
…
Half an hour ago, he was still at home in a second- and third-tier small city in the south of China, watching the pirated version of Football Manager 00/01 he just bought, leading Inter Milan, where his idol Ronaldo plays, to sweep the entire Apennines and Europa and win the Champions League.
Ten consecutive championships.
Veteran Ronaldo decided to bid farewell to his mentor and retire, while Su Dong also decided to accept an unprecedented god-level challenge, take over the national football team and compete in the World Cup.
Just when he faced the invitation from the national football team and clicked the accept button, a pop-up window suddenly popped up in the game.
"Do you want to be the king of football?"
What the hell?
Su Dong was confused and wanted to click it, but found that except for the two options of [want] and [don't want], he had no way to close this pop-up window. He could only curse those unscrupulous pirates in his heart.
.
They sell for five yuan a piece, and they even have ads embedded in them. It’s too much!
I'll buy three yuan next time.
If there is no other way, then you can only choose one of the two.
Su Dong undoubtedly chose [think].
Influenced by his father, a football fan, he signed up for football training classes since he was a child. It was definitely his most cherished dream to become the king of football, like Ronaldo, to dominate the field and be invincible.
But as I grew up, this dream gradually faded away, and I could only chase it in games.
But at this moment of choice, there was a burning feeling in his heart.
But what he never expected was that when his hand controlled the mouse and clicked on the "Think" button, he felt the world spinning, his eyes darkened, and he fainted.
When I woke up again, I was in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal.
…
His name is Su Dong, he is also sixteen years old, and he comes from a small second- and third-tier city in southern China, from an ordinary working-class family.
His father is also an old football fan. Although his family is not well off, he has allowed him to participate in football training classes since he was a child.
Their family backgrounds, looks and personalities, and even their life experiences are all exactly the same.
Their life trajectories diverged a month ago.
Before time travel, he had just bought a computer and wanted to play games, so he refused his father's proposal to sign him up for a summer football camp. However, after time travel, he accepted his father's proposal.
What happened next was bloody.
A Chinese scout who was said to be Portuguese came to the summer camp. He trained with the team for three days and found that Su Dong had excellent bones and had the qualifications to become a professional player. He said that he could arrange for Su Dong to join the Portuguese Super League team.
Youth training camp, receive the most advanced professional football training in the world.
Of course, Su Dong's father would not believe it easily, so he checked through various channels. The final result was that it was formal and endorsed by the authoritative football management organization.
Although the family was not well off, Su Dong's father still resolutely raised enough money to send Su Dong on a plane to Portugal for his only son's football dream.
Su Dong himself also hoped to land in the Iberian Peninsula, but the result was a bloody mess.
The other party quickly fulfilled the contract and arranged Sudong to enter the youth training system of the Portuguese Super League team, but it was not a Portuguese Super League team, but a team in the third-level Portuguese Second Division League.
When Su Dong discovered the problem and went to argue with the other party, the scammer company confidently told him that this was the team he had promised at the beginning, because although it was not a Portuguese Super League team, it was the Portuguese Super League team Beleren.
Seth's satellite club, the two have very in-depth cooperation in youth training.
"And if you think about it, this team is called Sporting Club de Portugal, with a national brand name. It is one level higher than Sporting Lisbon. It shows that this is a traditional team with a long history and profound heritage."
"Concentrate on training here. If you can be retained in two months, you will definitely have the opportunity to land in the Portuguese Super League in the future."
The money has been paid and the people have arrived in Portugal. There is no other way for Su Dong to stay in the Portuguese Athletic Club.
Until today.
…………
…………
I don’t know how long I walked, but I was a little tired. Su Dong walked into a park.
The surroundings were so quiet that only the faint chirping of insects was left, and only a faint light was visible in the distance.
Su Dong walked towards the bright light and found that it was an indoor football field.
It is not precise to say that it is an indoor football field, because it only has a roof and is surrounded by barbed wire. The barbed wire separates the large, medium and small indoor football fields, which should correspond to three-on-three, five-on-five and seven-on-seven venues.
The light was on the smallest field, which was empty except for a black and white football in the center of the field.
Under the light, it is like the irresistible snake fruit in front of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, and also like the shaky apple hanging on Newton's head, as if it has some important mission.
Su Dong watched for a while through the barbed wire fence, then walked into the football field and came to the football.
He stretched out his right foot and picked up the football, and the football was gently picked up by him.
And at this moment, pieces of information quickly flashed through his mind.
"The system [Road to the King of Football] has been activated."
"Binding, please wait..."
Su Dong was shocked. What the hell is the system [Road to the King of Football]?
Could it be caused by time travel?
"System binding successful."
"Congratulations on successfully binding [Road to the Football Championship], please confirm your identity."
"Name: Su Dong?"
Su Dong glanced at it, and his consciousness immediately fell on the [Yes] option on the lower left, and he quickly entered the next page.
"Nationality: Chinese?"
yes.
"Age: 16 years old?"
yes.
"Sex: Male?"
Nonsense, of course, definitely, 100% yes!!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Height: 183cm, weight: 61kg?"
yes.
"Identity verification completed, please select your stadium location."
Su Dong gradually woke up from his confusion. After all, he was a young man. He began to be vaguely sure that after traveling through time, he seemed to have gained some kind of superpower. This made him feel excited and very much looking forward to it.
The Road to the Football Championship!
Does this mean that he has the opportunity to realize his dream, like Ronaldo, galloping on the world stage, invincible, scoring a lot of goals, and becoming a generation of football king?
When he thought of this, the young man suddenly became passionate and chose [Forward] without hesitation.
A traveler who doesn't want to be a striker must not be a good fan.
After selecting, the system automatically enters the personal properties panel.
“Welcome to [Road to the Football King].”
"Current level: Football, entry-level rookie."
"The next level is: ball 丄, the required ball king value for upgrading is: points."
Ten thousand points?
Su Dong was already a little confused. Isn't this too much?
Also, where can I go to earn the number one spot?
The system did not explain all of this. Su Dong was completely confused and could only continue reading.
After entering the current ability interface, the system quickly popped up a reminder.
"Given that you are still at the lowest level, the system integrates various attributes by default."
Su Dong was very depressed, because if this sentence were put into human words, it would mean that your level is too low, and there is no need to make the breakdown too complicated.
This is simply looking down on people, isn't it?
What happened to the ball?
Do footballers have no human rights?
I will definitely upgrade as soon as possible and I won't let you look down upon me.
Su Dong made up his mind, but the personal attributes evaluated by the system disappointed him.
"Offense: 33; Defense: 28; Body: 29."
Is this my ability value?
Is it too low?
The full score is 99 points. Even if it is a passing grade, it should be given 60 points. Why is it so small?
But when Su Dong combined the memories in his mind and recalled his experience in Lisbon, he had to admit that the systematic evaluation was indeed very rigorous.
how to say?
In the past few years, he has overestimated himself. The important reason is that he is a leader in the football youth training camp in his city and is also the ace of the school team in his school. This has always made him highly praised and has deep feelings for him.
I inevitably overestimate myself a bit.
But if compared to his peers across the country, he is not that outstanding.
And if the reference object is placed in Portugal, even in a third-level team like Sporting CP, their youth training players are much stronger than Sudong, let alone the youth training in the Portuguese Super League.
Player ratios of strong teams.
Compared with his peers from the world's top youth training programs such as Real Madrid, Manchester United, Barcelona, and Ajax, the gap is even greater.
Realizing this and feeling the gap, Su Dong was not discouraged at all.
This is the common advantage of both of them, that is, they never admit defeat.
In his previous life, the reason why he was able to lead Ronaldo's Inter Milan to win ten consecutive championships was because he was tenacious and persistent. The most outrageous time was when he faced Juventus.
Take down the opponent.
In this life, he also does not give up easily. Even after stepping into the trap of liars, even after seeing his shortcomings in ability, he still stubbornly wants to gain a foothold in the Portuguese Athletic Association.
land.
Before he traveled through time, he had such determination, but now that he has traveled through time and has cheats like the Road to the Football Championship, he will not be easily discouraged.
Isn’t it just the liver?
Who is afraid of whom?
…
After thinking about it, Su Dong once again started playing football on the grass, starting with the most basic ball-bumping exercises.
He needs to warm up.
After every successful kick, a message flashed through his mind.
"Winning the title is worth 1 point."
"Winning the title is worth 1 point."
"Acquired the value of the ball king..."
"get……"
…
Okay, isn’t it just ten thousand kicks?
I'm sick!
…………
…………
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on the grass of King Edward VII Park, Su Dong was still practicing hard.
He was already in his head, completely forgetting time and everything around him, only thinking about football.
He didn't even realize that outside the barbed wire fence, there was a Portuguese boy about the same age and height who had been watching his training with interest.
