The Chosen Realm Chapter 165: Trinity University
As the days passed, preparations for the Adeptus Contest were in full swing.
Trinity University, Dublin, Capital of the Republic of Ireland.
Because of the outstanding contributions of the university's biomedical sciences and computer science disciplines in the study of the Anomalous, and because of the status of the Republic of Ireland as a permanent neutral country, the Alien Committee finally decided that the first Paranormal Contest would be held in the university's new stadium.
Nearly a decade after its completion, the 100,000-square-metre stadium has become a new landmark in Dublin and a training ground for the Irish national football team. April was the end of their spring training, and the players wearing green national team uniforms applauded and cheered each other on.
With the awakening of the global anomaly, it has had a huge impact on the sports industry, and many people around them have been transferred to the Irish Heterod Committee for unified management because of the awakening of the anomaly. The Irish, who advocate strength and unity, felt strongly the destruction of the principle that all human beings are created equal during the paranormal event.
Around the trainers, dozens of construction robots, large and small, are waiting on the sidelines, and when they finish their last training, this Dublin landmark will undergo a major transformation to adapt to the war-destructive competitive mode of the Adepts!
"Adams, does it still make sense for you to say we practice like this?"
A tall white man pointed to the figure hovering in mid-air and said to his sweaty companion next to him.
"I don't know, but we Irish never stop getting stronger!" The young companion waved his hand to wipe away the sweat and panted, "We also have an awakening day!" I believe that the more you practice today, the greater your chances of awakening, and maybe the muscles you gain now will be converted into more energy after awakening! He laughed out loud, as if laughing at himself, but he didn't stop raising his legs on the spot.
"Adams, what a fool you're alike!" The tall white man stretched out his foot slightly, interrupted his high leg, and said to the heavens, "Look at Beckett, he is flying in the sky waiting for you to pass the ball to him!" β
"Hehe, he and I are a wall-to-wall duo, you watch!"
Adams grinned, rubbed his toes, and the training ball on the grass next to him was rubbed up by him, and after his left and right feet were turned several times, his left foot supported the ground, and his right leg pulled back violently, a beautiful leg pumping action,
Boom!
The soccer ball arced in a beautiful arc and shot like a precision-guided missile towards his former teammate Beckett, hovering in mid-air.
The two watched as the soccer glide over a distance of nearly 40 meters and fly to a height of about 20 meters.
suddenly
The little white dot seemed to have fallen into a spider's web, and it was directly frozen in mid-air!
A large hand appeared from behind the ball, and Beckett grabbed the soccer ball and slowly flew towards the two.
"Addams, he's down." The tall white man rubbed his arm against him and ducked behind him.
Adams waved his hand into the air and grinned, "Hey! Beckett! β
"You kicked the ball?"
"Of course! Who but me can have this strength and accuracy! Adams said triumphantly.
"The heresy committee has a clear rule that we are free to fight back against any attack on us. This time I don't know when you don't know, don't have a next time. Beckett said coldly.
"What are you talking about, man!" Adams went over and put his arm around his shoulder, "You're in such a hurry... β
"If you have something to say, stand up."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Beckett taking two steps back.
"Beckett, you... Adams was a little blindsided. The teammate behind him hurriedly pulled him, poked his head out and said with a flattering smile, "Beckett, little Adams is joking with you, I promise he won't next time!" β
"It's not..." Adams' immature face was full of bewilderment, and he turned back and said, "Man, he and I are the best brothers!" β
"You'll understand when you wake up." His teammates leaned into his ear and whispered, "Now, shut up." β
"Beckett, I've dreamed of partnering with you since the youth team, and now I'm finally in the national team, and we've had a fantastic year together, have you forgotten? We're the most famous wall-hitting duo on Europa! β
Adams stepped forward and asked, his tone extremely sincere.
"Football? Scold! Beckett scoffed, "Ridiculous ordinary people movement." β
He pronounced "funny" so heavily that Adams finally realized that his once best teammate had betrayed his favorite sport. He couldn't believe that it had only been more than a month, and the person in front of him had changed so much!
"Bastard! What a veteran are you! You are insulting our faith! β
His strong body suddenly picked up speed and pounced on Beckett, who was two steps away!
Tong!
A white shadow cut through the air and streaked across Adams' newly accelerated body, red blood pouring out of the air-cut wound on his cheekβand he didn't even see how Beckett got to his feet.
The training ball shot diagonally into the sky like a cannonball, and disappeared without a trace in an instant. The tall figure behind Adams stuck out his tongue, not knowing whether to be surprised by the perverted foot strength or to marvel at the excellent quality of the training ball.
"That's 1% of my power, and if you get so impulsive again, I promise you'll be going to target your reckless soul next time." Beckett's fingers lightly poked the national team jersey on his chest a few times.
Adams gasped for rage, his eyes wide as those of a provoked lion. Beckett lowered his hand, as if waiting for him to be angry.
At this moment, a teammate who was watching from the side hurriedly came out to clear the siege, he wore the goalkeeper's long-sleeved team uniform, hugged Adams, who was half a head shorter than himself, pulled back, and waved his other hand at Beckett: "Great Mr. Beckett, we will not disturb your purity again!" β
Beckett didn't seem to hear the taunt in the words of his former teammates, his eyes swept over the faces of the onlookers in the field, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he turned and flew back into the air.
"Are you crazy, provoke him at this time, do you want to lose your life?!" The goalkeeper slapped Adams' full right cheek with his left hand, and then wiped his bleeding left cheek with his sleeve, "I heard that he has hooked up with the big man in Belfast, and he has air manipulation and great power, don't go and die!" β
"Captain, are we really going to disband, as they say?" With tears in his eyes, Adams grew up dreaming of being a professional soccer player and fighting for his country!
The captain sighed, put his hand off his face, put it on his shoulder, and said in a deep voice:
"Adams, sooner or later, ordinary people will disappear completely, and according to the heretic council, all human beings must evolve to the supernatural. At that time, the Alien will be equivalent to the ordinary people who are now. However, there will certainly be new competitive sports developing at that time. Maybe a similar sport would be called football, but the rules and the venue must be improved! Now this kind of facility can't stand their toss! β
"But that's not football! Even if they are all abilities, their strength is very different, you look at those videos on the Internet, in them, there is no fair competition at all! β
Adams' tears slipped from his eyes, and he seemed to see that his childhood dream was being crushed little by little by the invisible big hands.
"This is an immutable historical trend, and we can only go with it." The captain pinched his shoulder and persuaded, "The most important thing at the moment is to wake up as soon as possible, and only when you become strong can you pursue what you want." If you're strong enough, it's not impossible to restart football when the time comes! Are you right? β
"But most of our activations using the Angel Generation have failed! There are more than 30 people in the entire national team, and only five have succeeded! What hope do we have?! Adams' young face was confused and pained.
"There will be a chance, ordinary people still make up the majority, if we are left alone, there will be huge problems in the operation of the Anomalous Council, and there is now serious uncertainty about the management of the Anomalies and the continuation of future generations. Aren't you a sophomore majoring in biomedical sciences at Trinity University! It should be the clearest, right? β
Hearing this, Adams wiped away his tears and said: "There is a lot of gossip in the school now, about this Stranger Competition, I heard that there will be dark forces to sabotage, several famous professors in the school, the Alien Committee specially sent people to protect them twenty-four hours a day. β
"Is there such a thing?" The captain was surprised.
"I've seen them with my own eyes, they're all outside the door during class! Didn't you just say that Beckett and Belfast hooked up, I remember, there is a rumor that it is from Belfast Castle! β
"Isn't that the domain of the hypocritical gentlemen up to the north?" The captain was aroused by curiosity and asked in a low voice, "We Ireland are a permanently neutral country, if they really make small moves, what is the difference between it and the invasion a hundred and thirty years ago?" Those horrible fellows of the Heresy will teach them a hard lesson! β
"It's hard to say." Adams completely calmed down at this time, "The school has been infiltrated by many forces, especially the two majors of biomedical science and computer science, and now there are more than ten times more frequent scientific research exchanges with the outside than before!" And under different banners, it has received a large number of donations from many organizations! β
