Cao Baming couldn't truly calm down on the plane because the talent he had just acquired was too unexpected.
Perhaps most things lose their excitement as time passes after being learned, but the possibilities brought by this talent were endlessly evocative and had a greater aftereffect!
Cao Baming's mind kept replaying future events. What might be simple examples in a normal person's mind, he could already personally experience.
On a football field, it didn't matter which team was on the opposite side, nor were the details clear. However, Cao Baming personally tried it. After the kick-off, he immediately moved forward, running and using this brand new talent to convert his current attribute points to offense.
Shooting would definitely be needed! Speed, dribbling, ball control, and physique all seemed important!
He thought for a moment; there were only one hundred points in total, so how should they be used reasonably? Thinking of this, he looked ahead.
The goal was still quite far away, at least fifty meters more, so shooting might not be so necessary!
The several defending players in front were all burly. At this moment, he could choose one of two methods.
The first method was to max out his physique and speed attributes and break through directly in a straight line. If speed and physique were each increased by fifty points, wouldn't that be 160 points in physique and 150 points in speed!
If someone could still catch up or block him then, it would be utterly unfair!
The second method was simpler: put all one hundred points into dribbling and ball control attributes. Even the greatest football genius would be ashamed, with 200 attribute points in agility! Every hair on his body would be making feints, and an ordinary person would have no way to deal with it!
Ultimately, Cao Baming decided to use all one hundred points. He took a total of eighty points from his defense and tackling attributes, and twenty points from his physique attribute, putting all one hundred points into dribbling.
At this moment, he clearly understood that this was a matter of success or failure!
Because if he accidentally lost the ball, he would be missing a crucial player in defense! These one hundred points were mostly taken from defense-related attributes, and his current defensive strength was probably worse than Maguire's.
But! With 214 points in dribbling, Cao Baming instantly felt a very significant difference!
At this moment, it felt as if his body no longer existed! Light as a wisp of cloud!
No! More like a gust of wind!
Cao Baming's eyes flickered as he began to run forward. Where he went, no one could touch him, like an unreachable gust of wind, impossible to stop.
The football was firmly controlled at his feet. With every step, he could freely choose from at least ten thousand dribbling moves. No matter how divine the opponent was, it was useless; there was no defense line he couldn't break through.
A few seconds later, he had easily bypassed seven defenders!
These players were very focused on him, but under the attribute of 214 dribbling, it was truly nothing!
This was merely a thought experiment. If it were happening live with fans, they would surely be screaming non-stop, too stunned by the unparalleled dribbling to even blink.
Cao Baming opened his eyes. The cabin's interior was decorated with warm brown wood, lit by a few yellow spotlights. The sunlight streaming through the window was also exceptionally bright. It was sunset at this moment!
Life is worth it! All of this is too damn wonderful!
Cao Baming was not satisfied. He had merely conducted a thought experiment, but the experience within the time bubble was much more real than simply thinking about it!
Although his system skills had reached a sufficient level and didn't require too much physical exertion, this was only in comparison to before. It was still a bit too tiring to try less than twenty minutes after finishing a match.
Looking at the gentle sunset outside and the warm, orange-yellow atmosphere inside the cabin, coupled with such comfortable seats, Cao Baming decided to rest for a while.
People always need to know how to enjoy themselves.
"Mike, get me a blueberry cocktail, and a bottle of vodka too!"
As he spoke, Mike, who was sitting in front, immediately got up. At this moment, his illuminated phone screen was revealed, and Cao Baming happened to see it.
Even from a distance of at least two meters, Cao Baming could clearly read the small text on the screen.
"Mysterious consortium interested in acquiring Manchester United...?"
So Mike was reading about Manchester United. He really loved his job!
"Mike, is the mysterious consortium mentioned there you? Have you been exposed already?"
Mike's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately turned around, looking at Cao Baming, his boss, with a shocked expression.
"What, you can see the words on my phone screen? You can do that too?"
"I just have good eyesight. Don't change the subject, I'm asking you a question!" Cao Baming continued.
Mike pondered for a moment before answering.
"Don't worry, this mysterious consortium is not me. However, I already have some clues about who it is. The outside world doesn't know anything yet, but I've investigated some things."
"Good, that's fine. Remember, we shouldn't reveal our intentions so early. It's like an auction; let the minor players fight it out first, and we'll just make the final move!"
"Understood! I get it! This way we can obtain the greatest benefits while taking the least risk."
After speaking, Mike turned around and walked towards the cabin's bar. The cabinet there not only contained various kinds of alcohol but also some pre-mixed drinks, and even coffee and pastries.
As Mike walked away, he casually turned off his phone screen. He had only just realized how good his boss's eyesight was. He wondered if he had seen anything he shouldn't have.
Did I? I don't think so! Probably not! Absolutely cannot have!
Mike thought to himself.
Soon, a blueberry cocktail and a bottle of vodka were placed on a wooden table in front of Cao Baming.
The cocktail looked exceptionally beautiful under the small patch of orange-yellow light filtering through the side window.
With a deep blue top layer and a light purple bottom layer, it had an extra sense of depth in the sunlight. It was crystal clear, and just looking at it made one experience its refreshing taste.
