Fox in the Penalty Area

On the eve of Leeds' away game against Burleigh, the entire Leeds City team stayed at Burnley's hotel.

This is their first Premier League game of the new season. Before the game, the coaching staff is very strict, requiring all players to go back to the room to sleep after ten o'clock in the evening, and the range of activities cannot leave the hotel. If you want to go out of the hotel It is absolutely impossible to play.

Perhaps it was because the last warm-up match was really bad, so the players did not object to the arrangement of the coaching staff.

They also know that the current external atmosphere is not friendly to the team. They still think about going out to play at this time. If there is any accident in tomorrow's game, then whoever goes out to play will become the team's loser. The culprit".

So when the time came, everyone rested honestly in their respective rooms.

Even if you can't sleep for a while, you lie in bed and chat instead of going out to have fun.

Holly and Charlie Potter shared a room, and now they both had a shower and were lying on the bed, chatting casually with the lights off.

Porter suddenly talked about his prospects for the new season: "Hu, did the boss tell you how many balls are exchanged for a meal this time?"

Hu Lai shook his head: "The activity of exchanging goals for treats is gone."

Hearing that, Potter sighed regretfully: "That's such a pity... It's a rare opportunity to eat Chinese food at Red Chili..."

"Why do you keep thinking of good things, Charlie?"

"What you said, I don't want good things, do I want bad things? For example, we lost tomorrow's away game to Burleigh?"

Hu Lai turned his head and glanced at Potter: "Fortunately, I'm your roommate, Charlie. If it were Pete, you would have been beaten by him now."

Potter was very proud: "He can't beat me." Then he said with emotion: "I don't know what will happen if Pete and Ismail live in the same room..."

"What could happen? What would you like to happen?"

Charlie Potter shook his head: "I don't know."

"Put you in the same room with Ismail, and maybe something will happen. With Pete around, nothing will happen."

Potter thought for a while,

I think Hu Lai is right. Pete Williams is a very serious and responsible person. At special moments like the eve of the game, he must strictly abide by the team discipline, wash up and go to bed early. So I think he and Kamala should have nothing to say all night and sleep until dawn.

He changed the subject again: "Hu, what are your expectations for this season? You played for less than half a season last season and scored eleven goals. I see that some fans on the Internet are already guessing how many goals you can score this season." The ball is gone. And the betting company is starting to open the number of goals you have scored this season..."

"Oh? How did it work?" Talking about this topic, Hu Lai didn't feel sleepy anymore.

Professional football is deeply infiltrated by the gaming industry. Every Premier League team has a dedicated gaming sponsor, and some teams’ main jersey sponsors are even gaming companies.

The well-developed gaming industry covers all aspects of professional football, and any event in the Premier League can make the gaming company open a bet.

Some bets seem particularly weird, such as whether a certain player will transfer to a certain team, will a certain player start a game, the possibility of a certain player getting injured during the season, will a certain player Pie at the game...

In comparison, guessing the champion and runner-up, game wins and losses, the number of goals, and the number of corner kicks are all traditional items in football betting.

In the lives of British people outside of football, almost everything can be guessed by bookmakers. For example, who will be elected as the President of the United States, who will win the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, which year will Haruki Murakami win the Nobel Prize for Literature, whether it will be sunny or rainy or snowy on Christmas Eve this year, and what color hat will Her Majesty the Queen wear at the horse racing meeting? ……wait.

The reason is that Britain is a country that is keen on gambling, and the British really like gambling.

Even professional players are no exception, there have been many precedents for players to participate in betting on football games. That's why the Football Association later stipulated that all professional players and their family members are not allowed to participate in gambling related to football.

"Wait, let me look for it..." Potter turned over and picked up his mobile phone to browse and search, and there was a dim light in the room with the lights off. "Ah, I found it. If you predict that you will score less than five goals in the Premier League this season, you will lose 45. To be honest, I also think it is difficult for you to score such a small number of goals in one season... six to nine goals It’s 30 to 1, 10 goals to 15 goals, the odds are 2 to 5... Obviously, they all think that you should be able to score double figures again.”

The odds of the gaming company are basically based on the performance of the players, and then calculated by the actuaries. It is also necessary to adjust at any time according to the recent state of the players.

The odds of 2 to 5 mean that the bookmaker believes that the chances of Hu Lai scoring ten to fifteen goals in the new season are very high. So open such odds and tell the majority of lottery players: If you bet on this, there is a high probability that you will not lose money, but even if you win, you will not make much money.

The reason why the gaming company will offer such odds has a lot to do with Hu Lai's performance last season.

Hu Lai joined in the middle of last season and scored 11 goals in only 15 games. With such an efficiency, the bookmakers agreed that after he has a full season in the new season, it should be easy to score 15 goals Yes, it is a normal behavior.

"Odds of sixteen balls to twenty balls at fifteen to one."

The odds are up, but lower than the previous odds of 45-to-1 and 30-to-1. The gaming company believes that it is more difficult for Hu Lai to score so many goals than it is for him to score 15 goals, but it is not too big. It is a hard work. No matter how lucky you are, it may be possible. Target. Gaming companies are more optimistic about him scoring 20 goals in a single season than less than ten goals in a single season.

"Twenty-one to twenty-five goals, one pays one hundred and sixty-six. The odds are already very high..."

This odds are much higher than the odds of Hu Lai scoring less than five goals, which fully shows that it is more difficult to score than not to score. If a player encounters factors such as poor condition, injury and missing a large number of games, there may be no results in a season. But if you want to score as many goals as possible, you need more factors to achieve together: personal strength, team personnel configuration, correct tactics, good state, and excellent luck are indispensable.

"Of course, there are higher ones. The odds of you scoring more than 30 goals are 436 to 1. Basically, it means don't even think about it, it's impossible." Charlie Potter finished speaking and turned his phone Putting it aside, the room returned to darkness.

Hu Lai, who was on the next bed in the dark, said, "Okay, then I'll set the goal of scoring thirty goals for this season!"

Almost at the same time, the long-lost voice sounded in Hu Lai's mind: "Mission: To score at least 30 goals in the Premier League in the 2025-2026 season. Reward: Points × 300,000. Special reminder: If the mission fails, you will not be able to Get rewards, and it will also trigger a penalty mechanism, deducting 300,000 of your existing points, if the existing points are not enough, there will be negative points, and you will enter a state of debt..."

Hu Lai was stunned.

In fact, when he first stated this goal, he had a premonition in his heart, thinking that the system that had been pretending to be dead for a long time might release a mission, just like the two missions he had in the Olympics.

So when the task really appeared, there was no disturbance in his heart, and he even wanted to laugh a little--Little boy, you still want to tease me? Have you seen through me?

But when he saw the "special reminder" at the end of the task, he was stunned in the space of consciousness.

He really didn't expect that he could still be raped like this!

He has figured out the sinister intentions of this system - if he fails the mission, not only will he not be rewarded with 300,000 points, but he will also owe 300,000 points.

And now he has less than 300,000 points in his body - the previous task of winning the Chinese Super League Golden Boot allowed him to gain 100,000 points, and then helped Leeds City successfully relegation last season, another 200,000, adding up It was 300,000, but he bought training scrolls, [Physical Potion] and various equipment and props, and the remaining points were only a little over 200,000.

In other words, if he fails the mission, the 210,000 points will be cleared instantly, and his actual points should be close to minus 100,000.

In this way, even if he completes the mission reward in the future, he will have to repay the debt first with the points he has gained. Before the points are reset to zero and become a positive number, he can't even think about buying anything with the points.

He used to think that even if the tasks released by the system could not be completed, it didn't matter. If he didn't need those task rewards, some tasks that were too difficult might be able to give up.

For example, the Olympic hat-trick and qualifying for the group stage, if you really can't complete it... then you can't complete it.

You can't force others to do what's difficult for you.

But now there is a punishment mechanism for this task.

He doesn't know if the system has been upgraded secretly, because since he came to the Premier League, he hasn't seen any system upgrade prompts - of course, it cannot be ruled out that the system is like some smartphones, secretly patching your system, I don’t want to tell you, until you find that the more you use your mobile phone, the battery life is getting worse and worse, and you think it’s because your mobile phone is aging and you should change to a new one... In fact, it’s the mobile phone manufacturer that is a chicken thief forcing you to upgrade , good consumption.

Looking at this disciplinary mechanism, Hu Lai really wanted to slap himself—let you say that you will score 30 goals!

Keep a low profile, report a smaller number, and say... 15 goals, how safe is it?

Must play exciting!

Hu Lai was on a research mission in the system space, and it was time for regrets. In the real world, only one second had actually passed.

Charlie Potter laughed and said, "Huh, you're joking again. Ha!"

Unexpectedly, Hu Lai's serious voice came from the next bed: "I'm not joking, Charlie. I really intend to score...at least thirty goals this season."

Charlie Potter, who was lying flat on the bed just now, turned over and sat up when he heard this, and turned to look in the direction of Hu Lai: "Are you crazy, Hu?!"

"I'm not crazy, Charlie."

"Thirty goals... Do you know what this number is? Thirty goals and you can compete for the Golden Boot! When Marvin Stones of Manchester Athletic won the Golden Boot last season, it was thirty-two ball……"

Of course Hu Lai knew this, but what could he say?

He can't say to Porter, "Dude, there's a system in my head that just sent me a mission to pay taxes for my bragging rights. If I don't complete this mission, I'm going to lose." Serious..." Right?

Hu Lai, who was lying on the bed, took a deep breath: "So what? If you want to play, let's play a big one, Charlie. You can't live without being crazy. If you don't push yourself, you will never know where your limit is. If you don't want to be golden boots Is it? Then I will go for the golden boot!"

After he finished speaking, he didn't even bother to look at the specific missions when he heard the voice in his head that couldn't be more emotional - whatever, it doesn't matter, I will figure out all other missions .

Come on together, I'm in a hurry!

In the darkness, Charlie Potter heard the sound of Hu Lai gnashing his teeth from the bed next door, and was deeply shocked.

This...is this the confidence and courage of a genius? !
