Football: The national football team was expelled and rewarded with a long-range goal card Chapter 108

“Thump, thump, thump…”

“Chen, can I come in?” Lina’s voice sounded from outside the door, carrying a hint of anxiety and worry.

However, Ye Chen inside remained silent.

“He wouldn’t have fallen asleep, would he?”

Lina mumbled, gently opening the door, and soon saw Ye Chen sound asleep.

Even in his sleep, his brows were furrowed, and Lina’s heart was pricked again.

That damn Rüdiger… such a foul tackle should warrant a lifetime ban!

Lina carefully walked to the bedside and gently stroked Ye Chen’s cheek, “Sleep well. Everything will pass tomorrow!”

Just looking at the tear stains on Ye Chen’s face, the sensitive Lina couldn’t help but shed tears herself.

He was alone in a foreign land, with no family, no relatives. He must be very lonely, right?

Some emotions she couldn’t provide, and… although she was his girlfriend, he always reported good news and hid his worries, keeping many thoughts to himself.

He was only 17, yet he always acted like an older brother, taking care of her…

He must be very tired, right?

Lina’s mind conjured up his perpetually smiling face, but the more she thought about it, the more her heart ached.

Indeed, the more sensible a child was, the more grievances they held inside.

He wasn’t even willing to show his vulnerable side in front of her…

Lina gently grasped Ye Chen’s hand, tears blurring her vision, but a vast expanse of tenderness welled up in her heart.

She didn’t know how long she watched him, but Lina, sitting by the bed, accidentally fell asleep.

When the sunlight streamed through the window into the room, Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes.

Yesterday, he was first taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital for examination. After confirming that there were no major issues, his foot was bandaged before he was sent home.

This was a conventional injury, known as an ankle sprain.

The team doctor’s advice was to rest for a week, then undergo another examination. If there were no problems, he could resume training.

However, he definitely couldn’t play in the next two matches.

Of course, he didn’t need to be hospitalized; he just needed to wait for recovery at home.

The doctor also gave many detailed instructions, which Ye Chen noted down one by one.

Looking at the sleeping Lina, a faint smile appeared on Ye Chen’s face.

Indeed, whenever he needed company the most, she would always be there immediately.

Ye Chen got out of bed and took a blanket to cover Lina, as it was already December, and the weather in Germany had turned cold.

She shouldn’t get sick from sleeping like that all night.

While Lina was still asleep, Ye Chen began communicating with the system.

“System, was yesterday’s mission completed?”

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for leading Dortmund to a comeback victory. This match is rated SS-rank, and rewards are doubled. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Diamond Treasure Chest!”

“Another Diamond Treasure Chest? They’ve been quite frequent lately!” Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, asking with interest.

“If the host doesn’t like it, you don’t have to use it!”

“Use it, of course I’ll use it!” Ye Chen quickly said. Who would dislike being stronger?

Besides, even though his abilities had surpassed 80, he still felt he wasn’t strong enough.

Just like Stuttgart in the last match, don’t look at their current high ranking; by the end of the season, they didn’t even make it to the Champions League zone.

The most important thing was that they were fighting for relegation last season…

So it was normal for Ye Chen to score three goals against them!

Especially that last goal, when he kicked the ‘Curved Moon Scythe’, it just so happened to trigger the ‘Long-Range Shot Must-Score Card’… otherwise, the kick from Rüdiger would have directly ended his chances.

He wouldn’t have extended his Guinness World Record of five consecutive hat-tricks to six!

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining SS-rank attribute: Steel Bones!”

Ye Chen’s mouth twitched, “Damn it, why didn’t this skill come earlier?”

“Friendly reminder: All skills are randomly drawn and cannot be controlled by the system!”

“By the way, don’t I have ‘Iron Man’? Why would I still get injured?”

“Host, please note, ‘Iron Man’ does not grant 100% immunity to injuries, just like ‘Steel Bones’. It only reduces the possibility of injury and lessens the severity of harm!”

Meaning, even with SS-rank ‘Steel Bones’, he wasn’t 100% immune to injuries!

“Then why don’t ‘Steel Bones’ and ‘Iron Man’ fuse?” Ye Chen continued to ask the system.

“Skills can only fuse with skills of the same rank. For example, the previous ‘Long-Range Shot Must-Score Card’ and ‘Bati-Goal’ were S-rank skills, while ‘Iron Man’ is just an S-rank skill!”

It had to be said, the system’s explanation was quite patient.

In fact, Ye Chen could buy potions to shorten the injury period, but recovery potions cost 100 points, and Ye Chen checked the schedule, seemingly no need to buy them.

In the upcoming fixtures, Dortmund would host Olympiacos on November 2nd, and then face Wolfsburg on November 5th.

After these two matches, there would be an international break, which was perfect for recovering from injuries.

The main reason was that he couldn’t play in the Champions League anyway, and then there was the match against Wolfsburg…

To be honest, they could win even without him.

Moreover, the team doctor said he would be out for two weeks and had already done examinations. A sudden recovery would raise suspicion.

Next time, he should either use it directly when injured, or use it during a long-term injury, at which point the rapid recovery could be explained as a different physique.

With the end of the eleventh round, Wolfsburg was ranked twelfth in the league, only 4 points above the relegation zone.

Such a team couldn’t pose a threat to Dortmund at the Westfalenstadion. Instead, it was the next match…

Bundesliga Round 13: Dortmund away to Bayern Munich!

The eleventh round of the Bundesliga concluded yesterday.

Bayern defeated Nuremberg 4- 0 at home, bringing their points to 25!

Dortmund, thanks to Ye Chen’s hat-trick, came from behind to beat Stuttgart, catching up to 22 points, still three points behind Bayern.

Third-placed Schalke 04 also won 3- 1 against Hoffenheim.

Raul scored the opener, and Huntelaar bagged a brace, successfully placing him… second in the top scorer list.

The first place, of course, was Ye Chen!

Ye Chen’s hat-trick made him the undisputed top scorer in the Bundesliga, with one more goal than Huntelaar, totaling 15 goals!

And the upcoming schedule was interesting: after Dortmund’s away national derby against Bayern, they would host Schalke 04 for another Revierderby!

Using points wisely, so it wouldn’t feel like a waste.

After all, they won the last match, and the hat-trick only gave him 40 points, bringing his total points to 365. He could save up a bit more to buy Falcon boots.

“System, is there any training plan I can do now?”

“Ding! Would you like to spend 50 points to purchase a tailor-made training course?”

The system’s prompt sounded, and Ye Chen’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch.

This system was a real trickster…

Knowing that he cherished his points, it still tried to trick him into spending them!

Too much!
