Chapter Seventy-Three: Mick Fights
"'There's no grudge between brothers that can't be solved with one punch, if not, then another punch,' is a phrase my dad used to say to me," Kenneth said to Brandon as he pulled Mick up from the ground, "Bran, Mick is my best friend, so I will forgive him for whatever he does to me." So that punch I used to give you out of your anger. Can you forgive Mick now? ”
Everyone on the Phil team was stunned by Kenneth's unreasonable but extremely Kenneth-style words, and silently focused their eyes on Brandon's face.
Brandon was also stunned by Kenneth's words, and then smiled bitterly: "You guy, what a fool who can only do brute things!" ”
Kenneth didn't like to hear this, and glared at Brandon, "Bran, are you embarrassed to talk about me?" ”
Brandon looked at Mick, who was slightly swollen on the left side of his face, and then looked at Kenneth, who was clearly biased in favor of Mick, although the pimple in his heart was still there, but because Kenneth's attitude had also disappeared a lot, he simply shook his hand and said: "As you please, I still don't believe him anyway." ”
The implication is that Mick has been agreed to return to Team Fir.
Kenneth finally had his usual confident smile on his face, looked at Mick and said, "Mick! Welcome back! ”
Mick's gaze swept over everyone's faces, and except for Brandon and Jasmine's strange eyes, everyone else had a little hope.
"Will I be able to join the race halfway through, though?" Faced with everyone's expectations of him, Mick became nervous and asked Kenneth.
It's just that as soon as this question came out, Mick heard Brandon let out a cold snort, while the others laughed softly, which immediately made Mick feel like a cloud.
"When I first submitted the list, I put your name on it. Although you said that you would not participate, I think there is something missing without you. Kenneth scratched his hair and said to Mick, "It's just that I've been telling the referee that you're out due to illness." ”
When Mick heard this, he didn't know what to say for a while.
Mona on the side didn't know where to take out a set of jerseys and handed them to Mick: "Here, this is Mick's jersey." ”
Mick took the jersey and flipped it over, the fiery red jersey was embroidered with the number "11".
My heart suddenly floated with emotion.
Even if he had hurt Kenneth like that, he was still forgiven by him without any guilt, and this feeling of body and mind being bathed in warm sunlight was something that only Kenneth could let himself feel.
"Don't waste time, hurry up and put it on! There's not much left of halftime. But it was Brandon who reminded Mick angrily.
Mick woke up from a dream, immediately ran to the back of the locker room to change his jersey, and then ran back to the rest area to discuss the next tactics with the crowd, with only five or six minutes left before the start of the second half.
Perhaps because of Mick's side, Kenneth, who had been depressed, rekindled his fighting spirit and regained his confident smile on his face, and the rest of the Phil team became less discouraged than before.
The morale of the Phil team finally returned to normal.
Morale alone is not enough to beat the mighty Franconian team, they need tactics that can cope with them. So Auston asked Mick, "Mick, can you think of anything?" ”
Unexpectedly, Mick shook his head in disappointment and said, "If it's a way to restrain the tactics of the Franconian team, I can't think of a way to do it." ”
"But," Mick's voice lifted everyone's spirits, "if it's just that Seven's magic, I have a way to restrain him." ”
When everyone heard this, they happily asked, "What way?" ”
"Since the other party is using magic, of course you have to use magic to deal with it!" Mick met Kenneth's trusting gaze and spoke loudly.
"Auston, if that number seven is dealt with by me, can you think of any way to break the hexagonal formation on the opposite side?"
Auston pondered for a moment, looked at Kevin and said: "If it weren't for the interference of that seven, the captain's quick counterattack would have been able to play the effect that should have been achieved, and with the midfield tactics, it would definitely be able to disrupt the layout of the Franconian team!" The question is, can you really deal with the opponent's number seven? That's a third-order magician. ”
Mick looked at Auston, his clear blue eyes full of confidence, and nodded to Auston, "Leave it to me with confidence." ”
Alston looked at Kenneth, who smiled back with absolute trust, knowing that Mick was definitely not the kind of person who would boast about his bravery in the spur of the moment.
Seeing that Kenneth trusted Mick so much, Auston nodded and said, "Then please." ”
Mick smiled, and then said to everyone: "Actually, after watching the first half of the game just now, I have always had a doubt......
When Mick finished speaking, everyone's eyes showed a stunned look, and then it suddenly dawned on him, Auston and Kevin's eyes lit up, and Auston immediately took Mick's words and said, "I have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible......"
So Auston explained his thoughts to the crowd, and Kevin added on the side, and after the two finished speaking, everyone's eyes showed a look of approval and regained confidence. And all of this is undoubtedly thanks to Mick.
"Hehe, sure enough, I did the right thing, right?" Seeing this, Mona immediately cocked her little tail proudly and said.
Lisa also nodded, "Sister, wise." However, excessively. ”
Brandon thought of what Mona had said to Mick last night and nodded in agreement with Lisa's words, while Jasmine looked at Mick a little nervously.
Mick just smiled and said calmly to the crowd, as if telling a fact: "Don't worry, everyone, we will definitely make it to the final." ”
Kenneth, who had been standing next to Mick, grabbed Mick's shoulders and smiled loudly: "That's right, we will definitely be able to make it to the finals!" ”
Looking at the two people who showed their confidence in diametrically opposed ways, everyone in the Phil team laughed out loud, and then looked at each other, and said in unison with a very tacit understanding: "Phil, you will win!" ”
Kenneth and Mick looked at each other and said, "Phil, win!" ”

With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game officially began.
Mick's identity was confirmed by the referee, and he walked onto the court as the eighth man of the Phil team, and when he appeared on the court, Calvin and Rickon sitting in the audience both showed surprise, but the content of the joy was completely different.
However, at this time, the Phil team was still an incomplete seven-man lineup, and Jasmine still obediently stayed in the rest area under the persuasion of everyone. Mick stood next to Kenneth as a striker for the Philes, and there were no other changes to the rest of the team's positions. So at this time, the formation of the Phil team is a "two-two-two" formation, and neither the defense nor the attack seems to be prominent.
The Franconian team was only slightly surprised after seeing the opponent's formation change. The last ten minutes of the first half had proved the weakness of the Phil team, and by this time the Franconian players had already thought that the victory was in their hands, and even Peter was optimistic that the Phil team could do anything more.
"Surprises" always come when you don't expect them.
Since the first half ended with the ball possessed by the Philes, Kenneth teed off in the second half.
"Kenny, I'm sorry." Before the referee blew the whistle, Mick, who was standing next to Kenneth, whispered to Kenneth.
Kenneth looked at the listless Nigles in front of him and smiled, "Between us, do you still need to say such things?" ”
“…… Haha, yes. Mick chuckled.
"Don't you have to study today?" Kenneth asked suddenly.
Mick blushed and was about to say something when he was interrupted by the referee's whistle and motioned for Kenneth to kick off.
"Help me win this game, Mick!" Kenneth passed the ball to Alston not far behind him, leaving the words before disappearing in place.
Mick looked at the Franconian team who suddenly panicked, and said calmly: "Of course. After speaking, he raised the wand in his hand, and the blue first-order magic array at the top just flashed, and an extremely fast blue light hit Peter, who was about to give an order, and Peter's upper body was immediately covered with a thin layer of ice, falling into the freezing effect.
Mick's sudden freezing spell threw the Franconian team, who were already slightly flustered by Kenneth's disappearance, into chaos, and Peter had to shout: "Don't panic, they are ......"
Before Peter could finish his sentence, Alston had already fired a curvaceous kick that immediately awakened the memories of many spectators and made the Franconians aware of the intentions of the Philes.
But everything from Kenneth disappearing to Mick freezing Peter, to Auston making a big pass, all happened in just six seconds, and the Franconian defenders were still a little bit forward of the penalty line, so how could they create an offside? Kenneth's figure appeared in front of him like a nightmare, and he had absolute perception of the exact position of the ball landing, and when he made a foot lifting motion, the ball landed right in front of his feet, and then he shot into the goal, and the goalkeeper of the Franconian team was also holding his wand to cast the earthen wall spell.
"Beep-" The linesman's whistle sounded, confirming that the Phil team had a valid goal. The red number on another crystal pillar outside the field finally changed from "0" to "1".
Within the opening minute, the score was changed to 1-5.
The surprise attack of the Phil team turned out to be unexpectedly smooth.
And after a long time, the midfield tactics of the Phil team finally took effect again, and the audience in the audience was boiling for a while.
But to be honest, the midfield tactics were effective this time, mainly because of the surprise, and the Franconian team would not have thought that the Phillips team, who had been defeated just now, would use the midfield tactics at the beginning, of course, this is also related to their relaxed mentality. And Mick's surprise attack on Peter is also very important, which is equivalent to temporarily controlling the opponent's brain.
This surprise attack will be deeply engraved in the minds of all members of the Franconian team, and I am afraid that it will never be effective again, but it is exactly what the Phil team wants to achieve.
And after the Phil team scored, the ball was converted and the Franconians served.
The freezing effect on Peter's body had been removed by Negles with purification, but Peter immediately informed his players of Mick's situation, telling them to be careful of this player who had never played.
When the whistle blew, Peter confirmed Kenneth's position, passed the ball to Nigles, and gestured to have Nigles in charge.
Nigles looked reluctant when he saw Peter's instructions, but his body still took the football quite honestly, and then the magic wand in his hand resurfaced the magic circle of deceptive space, controlling his body to appear one meter away from his left.
Negles then slowly ran forward with the ball across the midfield and into the field of the Phil team.
The only difference is that this time the other Franconian players are also slowly moving forward.
"I'm sorry, it's not going to work." But Mick suddenly appeared in front of Negles, with a warm smile on his face and a brownish-yellow glow in his blue eyes.
