Chapter 19: Infinite Loop, Happy Life (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
Playing football?
Roland didn't want to talk and threw a dog at James.
He doesn't play football, and he doesn't play what James calls football.
In America, only Soccer can represent football, and Football refers to rugby.
And what James is talking about is Football.
In his previous life, Roland had only played basketball.
For no other reason, the football field is more difficult to find than the basket is locked.
For a guy who has to avoid other people's layups when playing basketball, let him go and have fun on the football court with a bunch of muscle sticks! Artificial huh?
That's a dream!
Sensei said that he didn't understand the rules, and even if he did, he wouldn't play!
And yetβ
In David's eyes, he is not an 'adult' from the future who is trapped in a time loop.
Under the double persuasion of James and David, although Roland didn't understand anything, he still signed up.
Anyway, there's nothing to do, why don't you go on the field and have fun?
It's better to accompany James.
For the past 100 or so cycles, James has been reluctant to stay on the set of Universal.
Although he didn't have any memories, Roland always felt a little sorry for him.
If you can't eat enough or sleep well, it's okay, the point is that you can't lose weight like this, it's too difficult for him.
Although Roland listened to the rules after signing up, when he really changed into protective gear and stood on the field, he forgot all about kickoffs, offsides, and scores, not only that, but when he heard someone shouting his name and looked over - in his sight, in addition to the oval brown ball that shot from him, there was also a mountain of meat rushing up.
Roland only felt that he had been hit by a palm that fell from the sky, and the sudden attack of the rugby directly obscured his vision, and then, he felt that he had been hit by an iron mountain, "ah" A miserable scream, he suddenly flew out with the ball in both hands, and just when he was rolling all over the ground with the rugby ball, the fastest spell Tarzan pressed the top, and also quietly descended.
Roland didn't know how he ended up alive, he only knew that when he was picking up his clothes to check his bruises, James who was sitting next to him stared at him with a wicked smile, "Roland, I remember you used to play!" β
"But how are you acting like a novice today?"
His brows trembled, his elbows were lightly pestleed, and the expression of squeezing his eyebrows made Roland roll his eyes.
Will the original Roland play?
"yes, I can play!" Raising his hand to support James, Roland said angrily: "As soon as my little body was hit by you, it flew out directly, I will play!" β
Roland didn't bother to pay attention to James, who was cheap and well-behaved, wasn't he just revenge?
Because Roland didn't interfere much, so early this morning, James was surprised by Roland's appetite again, as he did at the beginning, and after he asked, Garnetti said, and followed.
Since he was crushed by Roland in terms of eating, he had to get it back on the court.
The gap between James and Roland is equivalent to the blue fat who opened BKB and the ice girl who didn't have armor.
You don't even need to bomb indiscriminately, Ping A can kill him.
"I hit it and flew out?"
"Then you usually eat more!"
"No matter how much green milkshake you drink, it won't grow meat."
"You might as well eat more bacon, honey, hamburgers, ...... like me"
Looking at James, who was frowning and fingers, Roland showed a non-sneer.
"Do you believe that I don't eat those junk foods, and I don't need to gain weight, and I can take you to lie down and win?"
"How is this possible! You're dreaming! James withdrew his hands, looking incredulous.
"Then you wait, see if I show you a touchdown tomorrow!"
Roland patted his thigh, and wanted to make a grand declaration, but the ensuing pain made him rub his teeth on his legs, frowning and reciprocating.
He patted James on the shoulder and motioned for him not to say any more, and at the same time, David also said to Roland, "Do you eat here or go back at night?" If you go back, we'll pick up Ashley, and when we get home, we'll have the doctor come and see you, but if we eat here, we'll leave them alone, have dinner, and I'll take you to the doctor on the way back. β
"Don't bother, right?" Roland, who was rubbing his legs, had a bitter face, and he felt that there was no need to see a doctor for these injuries.
"It has to be dealt with." David shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Although I also think that you are fine, if someone from the Child Protection Association finds out, it will definitely suspect that we are abusing you." β
"Okay...... Then you decide. β
Now that David has said this, Roland is no longer stubborn.
Although according to common sense, it is necessary to deal with Roland's injuries, but-
These things will be gone tomorrow morning!
Yes, the reason why Roland dares to fight each other with James is because of the refresh ability of the time loop.
Like his predecessors in Edge of Tomorrow and Groundhog Day, the time loop not only allows his body to recover as before, but also allows his workout to be preserved (Chapter 8, the bug in the time loop work has been explained).
If his body can't memorize the effect of the exercise and won't improve, then how dare he boast in front of James?
After all, touchdowns aren't that easy to reach.
As the highest-scoring player in football, Roland can run faster than Quicksilver can be hit by a bullet.
Of course, learning rugby was just a whim for Roland.
It took a day to figure out the rules, and 10 days to memorize the personality traits and playing styles of the participants.
When the 140th New Year's Day came, Roland, who was standing in the opposing end area, received a forward pass from quarterback James in the parallel rebounding position of Rodman and successfully completed a touchdown.
looked at the stunned beep for a few seconds, and then rushed forward bravely, forcing the cheering figure.
Pressed to the ground, Roland held the rugby ball high and smiled happily.
In addition to rugby, as the number of time loops continues to increase, Roland knows more and more people, and the things he plays have also skyrocketed; On the 122nd to 140th New Year's Day, he played rugby, and on the 141st to 145th New Year's Day, he watched the band perform after the parade of floats.
Of course, it is said that it is a band performance, but the big stars rarely appear.
There are more music lovers who perform here, as well as the kind of mariachi bands that make their home all over the world and say let's go.
However, while watching the band perform, a guy in the crowd caught Roland's attention.
Isn't that guy in a spiked leather jacket, dark purple hair, hanging a guitar, singing Michael Jackson classics, and hugging and kissing her boyfriend in the future?
Looking at the classic punk dress and the appearance of being thin from smoking Cocaine, Roland had no desire to go up and say hello; Although he knows that Angelina Jolie's background is very good, if he puts on the other party, then the identity of the Jewish gang can be directly confirmed, but he is a human being in two lives, of course he knows what things he can't touch, not to mention, even if he meets each other in a time loop, it's useless, because once tomorrow passes, people won't remember him.
And on the 146th to 152nd New Year's Day, Roland picked up the hobby of his previous life.
On the basketball court in Pasadena, I played with others.
There is no other reason, mainly when Roland was passing by the basketball court, he heard someone next to him shouting Gilbert Arenas!
And thenβ
And he went into the pit.
What was it like to play with future Agent Zero Arenas?
Roland felt that he had been mistreated.
Although Arenas is two years younger than himself, his talent is there!
Arenas is a man who can score 60 points against a spicy dragon slayer warrior!
Even if Roland wears Darius's slam dunk skin, he can't beat others!
"If you don't fight, you can't beat your ......"
Roland sat on the floor, raised his arms, and wiped the sweat from his forehead very casually.
While gasping for breath, he picked up his drink, unscrewed the cap, and drank it with a clatter.
"You have the strength, but the movements are incoherent."
"You should have just started playing, right? Played rugby before? β
Since Roland stopped fighting, Arenas also stopped.
Sitting next to Roland, when he took David's drink, he also politely said thank you.
Of course, Roland knows that his strength is okay, in the past thirty days, he has been exercising every day, and every morning when he gets up, he can find that his body has changed to a certain extent.
Of course, sports are just a means for him to relax, and the kind of thing that happens to the two flowers, just think about it.
He doesn't want to turn all his hobbies into his career.
Because then you lose your true passion for the project.
"Sort of, I've been playing basketball for a short time."
"Then you practice hard, I will definitely not be able to beat you after a while."
"Look at it again, these things are just interests, I'll play when interest comes, and I'll take a break when interest leaves."
Roland wanted to explain a fact, but as soon as he said that he was interested, he felt that his head was a little cold.
I raised my hand and touched it, but fortunately, the hair was still there.
Arenas didn't know what Roland was doing, and when he saw that Roland was stunned, he continued to ask, "Then will you come back tomorrow?" β
"Tomorrow?" Roland thought for a moment, but finally shook his head, "I have something else to do tomorrow." β
"After thirty days of playing, it's time to get down to business."
