Chapter 345: The Strong Match Begins, Against the Lighthouse Team
Chapter 345: The quarterfinals begins, facing the Lighthouse team
The World Cup quarterfinals officially began.
Early in the morning, all members of the German team boarded the school bus and headed towards the venue of the World Cup quarter-finals.
Under Ralph's leadership, the Lighthouse team became increasingly powerful.
Plus Long Ya joined the team early.
If the Lighthouse team meets the Swiss team at this stage.
There is a high probability that the Lighthouse team will win.
Under his provocation, Ralph now is not someone Amadeus can handle.
Long Ya's presence ensures that the Lighthouse team will have a net score, even if the current Swiss team captain 'Eddie Federer' comes.
Unfortunately, Lin Nan is the leader of the team this time.
With Borg and QP there, no matter how much stronger the Lighthouse Country team is than the original, the winning country in the end will only be the German team.
In the host's shout.
The German team led by Lin Nan walked out of the player tunnel.
"Oh~ Look, the German team is out... Lin Nan is leading the team. It's Lin Nan who is leading the team! The ticket price today is really worth it!"
"Wait, look, Borg and QP are also on the field, wow~~ there are so many strong players on the German team."
"I thought we would have to wait until the semi-finals or finals to see Lin Nan and QP compete together, but I didn't expect to see them in the quarter-finals."
"Not surprising, the Lighthouse team is very strong this year. You didn't watch their games. They all played very well."
"It was beyond my expectation that the Lighthouse team could make it to the quarterfinals. In many World Cups, they only made it to the round of 8. This time they have broken through themselves."
.....
After Lin Nan and others entered the arena, they quickly attracted the attention of the surrounding audience.
All tickets for Germany's games are sold out.
Seeing that Lin Nan, QP and Borg were among the players competing today, the atmosphere in the stadium reached its peak.
"If Lin Nan leads the team, there won't be any surprises in today's game. I'm curious whether that Echizen Ryuga is as scary as he says."
Hittus watched the match with great interest.
Leitru said, "Xiaonan is not exaggerating. This is the information the intelligence team has recently collected in the Lighthouse Country. Take a look at the column about street tennis courts."
Hearing this, Hittus took the document and scanned the information on it.
Hitts, who had not taken it seriously at first, was suddenly shocked by the information displayed above and showed an expression of disbelief: "Everyone has lost the ability to play tennis?"
A total of more than 40 players who have played against Long Ya are recorded above.
After the game, none of these people played tennis anymore, and some of them couldn't even hold their rackets.
Completely lost the ability to play tennis.
Leitru on the side said slowly: "If Lin Nan hadn't reminded us, we might have lost a player in today's game."
Everyone walked to the center net and waited.
On the other side, the Lighthouse Team led by Ralph also came out.
Ralph, Longya, Dudu Obondu, Chico Balentin, Alan Hopkins and the traditional doubles teams that have appeared before.
Just as Lin Nan predicted.
Long Ya came on stage.
Compared to the last time they met, this time they have become much stronger.
Chico Valentin began to develop and his combat power increased to 10 stars.
Dudu Obondu is among the 11 stars.
Alan Hopkins 12 stars on.
Longya 14 stars.
Ralph is currently 14 stars.
Among them, Ralph's actual combat ability can definitely reach 15 stars.
As long as Long Ya doesn't fight with Lin Nan, it won't matter who comes. At least no one in this World Cup can resist Devouring.
While Lin Nan was watching them, Ralph and others were also scanning the German team's lineup.
When I saw that Borg and QP were both in the team, my heart sank to the bottom.
Especially Bismarck and Fog Valley are also in the lineup.
Alan Hopkins showed a helpless expression: "The worst prediction has come true. Xiaonan has no intention of giving us a chance to survive."
Ralph shook his head. "The World Cup is a matter of life and death. There is a saying in Daxia that there is no father and son on the battlefield. Besides, Xiaonan can put out the strongest lineup, which is a kind of respect for us. Do you want him to let us?"
"Do not want to."
Alan Hopkins shook his head.
The two teams walked to the center of the field.
At the referee's whistle, the two players shook hands.
Ralph said with admiration: "Xiaonan, this is the first time we lead the team to compete in an official competition."
Lin Nan nodded: "No regrets."
As he said that, he turned to look at Long Ya who was standing beside him: "Long Ya, you have become stronger again. I will not use my ten senses in this competition. You can devour me however you want."
"Ugh?"
Long Ya was stunned for a moment.
He was about to ask something, but when he saw Lin Nan's serious expression, he stopped talking.
Since obtaining 'Absolution Extraction'.
Lin Nan has a deeper understanding of Long Ya's devouring.
Unlike his Pardon and Extraction, Devour can only devour materialized things, such as playing style, skills, and even status skills.
Some talents that have no substantial form cannot be taken away.
For example, there are talents such as Ten Senses, Sea Inference, and Pardon Extraction, which are talents that you can't see the clues of.
So Lin Nan wanted to use Long Ya's hand to do something.
After a brief chat, both sides returned to their respective preparation areas.
"As for the German team's lineup, let's submit it according to the schedule we originally planned."
Alan Hopkins held up the tactical board in front of everyone.
"Leave the doubles two to our Archie, you two."
"A double team of Obondu and Balentin."
"Single three dragons."
"Single two Ralph."
"One-on-one me."
Finished the battle table.
There was no expression on Hopkins' face, but he felt a little sad inside.
Such a layout means that they are determined to lose.
From Long Ya's description, we can hear that Lin Nan is immune to devouring, so his original winning point is gone.
In fact, in his opinion.
Obondu and Balentin have a great chance of winning the doubles match, as long as the opponent is not a main combination.
Knowing that Lin Nan will play in singles three, there is a certain chance of winning the quarterfinals.
But the problem lies with Borg and QP who are playing against the German team this time.
If you're lucky enough to meet QP, Ralph at least has a record of winning and has some fights.
But since QP's last performance in the exhibition match.
Ralph also made it clear that he couldn't resist QP's attack and the probability of winning would not be very high.
If he met Borg, he would definitely have no chance of winning, as the gap between the two was obvious.
Full of disadvantages.
Is it a good choice to use Longya to destroy an opponent?
What's more, the chance of losing is very high.
If the Lighthouse Team loses the game even though they use Longya to destroy a player, the infamy they will bear will be fatal and will affect the entire team.
Long Ya will also suffer.
Rather than losing the game with a bad reputation, it is better to fight honestly and seek opportunities.
This choice was not because Ralph didn't want to win, but because he didn't dare to pay the highest price to gamble on a game with a very low chance of winning.
He has to consider the consequences.
Ralph, who finally led the team into the top 8, will have a great say in the team regardless of whether they win or lose in subsequent games.
His reforms to the team will be implemented more smoothly.
Given the German team's fan base, if the Lighthouse team is caught in a whirlpool of public opinion, Ralph's efforts over the past year may be wasted.
So Ralph couldn't afford the gamble.
of course.
If Ralph knew that Lin Nan had ordered everyone to give up as soon as they met Long Ya, he would probably vomit blood on the spot.
