"See you tomorrow, Chicken Bro!"
"See you tomorrow!"
Hao Ren and Kimmich had just said goodbye at the base entrance when Hao Ren saw Kimmich looking dejected. He couldn't help but chase after him, saying, "Brother Chicken, it's okay!"
"It's just a cup competition; the league is the most important."
"Um.
'
Kimmich sighed: "I just didn't expect the round of 16 to be this difficult. I thought I could play a few more German Cup matches."
"To put it bluntly, we might not necessarily lose."
"Ha ha!"
Hao Ren's words made Kimmich laugh: "Good, I know what you mean. But the problem is they're a top-four team in the Bundesliga, a Champions League-level team. They can barely play against Bundesliga teams in the 2nd Bundesliga, but they're not so good against Champions League teams. Under normal circumstances—well, never mind."
As they were talking, Kimmich realized he shouldn't affect his teammates' confidence, so he changed the subject.
Unexpectedly, Hao Ren began to ponder because of Kimmich's words.
"Under normal circumstances————"
"Brother Chicken, do you mean we have no chance under normal circumstances?"
"Um—that's roughly the idea, but I didn't mean to say it out loud."
Hao Ren took a deep breath and suddenly began to shake his head in front of Kimmich: "I don't think we are in a normal situation right now."
"Oh?"
While Kimmich was still wondering, Hao Ren raised his right hand and gave his teammate a fist bump.
"We'll see, Chicken Bro. We'll find out once the competition starts!"
Rushing home, Hao Ren seemed excited, not at all like someone who had just been involved in a car accident with Bayer Leverkusen.
Indeed, Chicken Bro is right. Under normal circumstances, a German second division team cannot defeat a Champions League team like Bayer Leverkusen.
If they follow the conventional path, Leipzig will only be destined to be thrashed by Leverkusen.
But Mr. Goodman is not following the usual path!
Hao Ren sat down in the chair with a smile on his face.
If they rely solely on that utterly useless system store, even the powerful Mr. Goodman cannot turn the current situation around.
Fortunately, the clever Mr. Goodman had already blown up the store, thus unlocking the path to achievement!
Mr. Goodman is right!
With that in mind, Hao Ren activated the system and quickly found the achievements page.
[Achievement: 12 LP in Silver Rank (LP required for promotion: 200)]
You have new achievement rewards to claim.
In the previous game, Hao Ren gained a total of 15 points, bringing his total points to 112.
After deducting 100 LP to advance to Silver, you still have 12 LP left!
Although he was about to gain great power, Hao Ren was not in a hurry. Instead, he took out his phone and found the account of his number one hater, Elend, on Twitter.
[Erend: Goodman is completely caught up in his abnormal growth and I believe his offensive ability will soon surpass his defensive ability!]
—Reply to [GoodMan137HR: Foolish! You know nothing about Mr. Goodman's defensive prowess]
After sending out the German sentence he had painstakingly translated, Hao Ren received his Silver Rank achievement reward.
[You have acquired the talent: Defense to Offense]
Defense turns into offense?
What does this mean?
Upon seeing these words, Hao Ren involuntarily leaned back, a bad premonition rising in his heart.
[Defense to Offense: From now on, every 1 point of defensive attribute you gain from the template will be converted into 1.5 points of shooting attribute or 1.25 points of passing attribute. The conversion is mandatory; this talent will no longer be effective when a certain attribute's value reaches 100.]
After reading the introduction to the reward talent, Hao Ren was at a loss.
If I understand correctly, from now on, he will be unable to improve his defensive attributes using the new template!
Of course, the defensive attributes in the template will not disappear, but will be converted into other attributes by a factor of one.
To summarize: Does more defense lead to a stronger offense?
This strange thought popped into Hao Ren's mind.
It's still unclear whether this talent is good or bad, so Hao Ren quickly opened the mission section to collect the mission rewards and test this so-called "defense to offense" skill.
[Mission Progress: Steal (5/5)]
You have received the mission reward: a random Premier League Chest (Gold).
[You have obtained the Vieira Hardline Confrontation Template (Senior)]
[Talent: His Way of Man Takes Effect, Vieira's Hardline Confrontation Template (Senior) → (Replica)]
[Defense: 76→80]
[Physical contact: 76→79]
Just as Hao Ren was experiencing the power of the new template as usual, a new voice sounded in his mind: "[During the defense-to-attack conversion, the defensive attributes you gained will be converted into shooting attributes at a rate of 1.5 times]."
[Defense: 80→76]
[Shots on goal: 68 → 74]
The perfect-level [Vieira Tough Challenge Template] would normally give you a 4-point increase in defensive attributes, but because of the new talent "Defense to Offense", these 4 points of defense are directly converted into 6 points of shooting.
The system's written description is flawless; it really is 1.5 times as promised!
Trading defensive attributes for shooting attributes might be a loss at first, since Hao Ren's defensive attributes are much higher than his shooting attributes, making it more difficult to improve them.
But in the long run, Hao Ren is sure to make a profit.
Because he always receives 1.25 to 1.5 times what he puts in!

[Ball possession: 61; Passing: 77]

[Talents: Reversal of Cause and Effect, Future Warrior, The Way of Man, Defense to Offense]
[Achievement: 12 LP in Silver Rank (LP required for promotion: 200)]
Overall rating: 76
"call----"
After merging the template's energy, Hao Ren discovered that his overall score had reached 76.
During his study of his own stats, he also gained a deeper understanding of the [Defense to Offense] skill.
If you follow the usual routine and keep training in defense, you will eventually hit a bottleneck, such as when your defensive attributes reach 90+ and you can no longer make any progress.
But things change once you have the [Defense to Offense] skill!
The practice focused on defensive techniques, but the offensive stats actually increased.
Even with shooting and passing scores both exceeding 90, Hao Ren will never encounter any bottlenecks due to the game's overpowered skill design. All he needs to do is keep defending; the more he defends, the stronger his offense naturally becomes.
Realizing this, Hao Ren's heart rate increased and his breathing became rapid.
Is Bayer Leverkusen their opponent in the German Cup Round of 16?
Mr. Goodman is not flustered at all!
On December 23rd, Berlin time, Leipzig will host Munich 1860.
This is Leipzig's last match before Christmas, and also their last match of 2014.
Just days before this match, Leipzig confirmed their opponent in the German Cup Round of 16 – Bayer Leverkusen, currently fourth in the Bundesliga.
This is indeed a sad thing for RB Leipzig, who have just climbed to the top of the 2. Bundesliga.
Team captain Poulsen also responded to this issue.
"We've climbed to the top of the league, and we'll do everything we can to maintain that position. I hope to play in the Bundesliga with my teammates next season."
"As for the German Cup, the draw results are beyond our control. We were drawn against Leverkusen, so there's nothing we can do about it."
"Of course, I don't think cup competitions represent everything. We are currently first in the 2. Bundesliga, and if we remain first at the end of the season, then this will be a great season."
Click, click, click!
Boll's words also reflect Leipzig's plans for the remaining half of the season.
Paying too much attention to the German Cup draw is clearly not a wise thing to do. What Leipzig players should do is protect what they already have!
"3, 2, 1!"
"Long live Leipzig!"
After regrouping, Poulsen led his team out of the locker room.
"Klostermann, pass the ball to Hao Ren!"
"Leipzig still has a lot of young players. This Klostermann looks promising. Players who know how to pass the ball to Hao are generally not bad. That's my experience."
"here we go!"
"Leipzig is still opting to play down the flanks!"
"Munich 1860 doesn't want to give their bottom line to their opponents!"
"But their defenses seem to have been stretched too wide!"
"The defenses of Munich 1860 have been breached!"
-
Snapped!
Kimmich delivered a long pass from the right wing, and Morris, coming up from the left, collected the ball.
Come here!
Hao Ren was already in position and reached out for the ball.
Morris quickly presented the inverted triangle.
Facing interference from the defender, Hao Ren decisively pushed the ball forward with the outside of his foot.
After integrating a large number of templates, his physical resistance attribute reached as high as 79.
This is already at the physical level of a Bundesliga defensive midfielder; naturally, he would have a hard time finding a match in the 2. Bundesliga!
Weigel, who had just placed his hand on Hao Ren's shoulder from the side, was immediately shaken off by the latter.
"Haha! This number 28 can't stop my Grandpa Niu!"
"It seems like there's a chance!"
The two players, Maurice and Vlaan, cleverly executed a cross-cutting run, creating a good shooting opportunity for Hao Ren.
Snapped!
Hao Ren decisively delivered a shot.
Goalkeeper Ortega jumped up and slammed the ball to the ground, but the save was problematic.
The ball bounced on the grass and then rebounded before finally going into the goal.
"Goal!"
Goal!
"Hao Ren scores!"
"1:0!"
"Nice guys!"
"I told you Leipzig was going to win every game, I wasn't kidding!"
In the 30th minute of the first half, Hao Ren's powerful shot broke the deadlock.
Leipzig is in the lead!
Hao Ren, celebrating with his teammates, sorted out the information from the system.
After losing to Munich 1860, Leipzig secured their third consecutive victory.
There will be an extra win bonus for 3 consecutive wins!
"RB!"
Boom!
"RB!"
'
Boom!
Once the game started, Leipzig fans were in high spirits, chanting the team's name repeatedly.
"This is the last match before Christmas. If Leipzig can win, they will be top of the league for at least the next two weeks. (German)"
"Yes, if we win today, Leipzig fans can have a great Christmas! (German)"
38 minutes.
It was originally the away team's turn to advance, but Adron, carrying the ball, couldn't avoid the midfield chokeout by Hao Ren and Dem.
boom!
[Caesardo Meat Grinder Tackle Template (Expert)]
Proficiency: 122/450
Hao Ren made a flying tackle, sweeping the ball away from Adron's face.
Wow!!!
To be honest, it was too violent.
But from the perspective of the fans at the scene, this is what everyone likes to see the most!
Kimmich came up from the side and sent a long pass forward.
Vlaan once again demonstrated his exquisite header back pass.
Poulsen's chance!
Snapped!
A shot that curls into the far corner.
"Oh!"
Unfortunately, Poulsen's curling shot grazed the post and went wide, failing to create a second goal for Leipzig.
"It's alright, brothers. The home team has a huge advantage right now, and Grandpa Niu has already moved up the seats."
"What do you mean?"
"That number 11 guy on the other side is really arrogant!"
Hao Ren tried to get Adelong to work, but the latter slapped Hao Ren's hand away.
It seems that because Hao Ren's tackle was too violent, Adron was not very willing to accept the "fierce" favor!
"Okay, whatever you want."
Hao Ren shrugged.
Seeing that a conflict might break out between the two sides, the judge in the distance quickly ran over and blocked Hao Ren in front of Adron: "I know you didn't foul just now, but you need to be careful. Please stay rational. Can you do that?"
"
"Of course, I've always been very rational. It's him who's irrational."
Hao Ren pointed to Adron, who had just gotten up from the ground.
"The second half has started, huh? Rangnick substituted Klostermann?"
"Klostermann played quite well, what's Rangnick trying to do?"
"Is Rangnick planning to extend the lead in the second half?"
Wang Chao sat down at his computer and quickly searched for information: "Leipzig is currently third in the league in goal difference. Is Rangnick trying to jeopardize their ranking?"
Leipzig's new coach's thought process is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people, so Wang Chao simply stopped studying the coach and continued to focus his attention on his grandfather, Niu Yuyan.
"Angha, run to the baseline to receive the ball!"
Munich's decision was very clever. In order to avoid Leipzig's pressing in the attacking third, the center-back kicked the ball directly to the corner flag, preparing for the full-back to kick it out.
But they clearly underestimated the efficiency of Leipzig's striker's pressing.
Kimmich suddenly rushed up from behind and blocked Angha, preventing the latter from turning the baseline at all!
"Get him! Get him!"
"Great job, Joshua! Well done!"
boom!
Angha gritted his teeth and forcefully pushed Kimmich away.
Pass the ball to your teammate!
Angha is indeed good at physical confrontations, but his kick was touched by Kimmich, causing the ball's trajectory to deviate significantly.
"Wow!!"
Sebastian, who came up from behind, received the ball!
"Give it to me! Give it to me!"
Sebastian originally intended to hit the ball into the penalty area, but Hao Ren on the left suddenly started calling for the ball.
Then give it to me!
Sebastian passed the ball to Hao Ren, who used his back to block the defender.
Fuck you!
Hao Ren dribbled towards the top of the arc after being constantly pressured by Weigl from behind.
Um----
As he ran, this defensive midfielder with the big beak also found his rhythm.

"Hao Ren, hmm, what do you want?"
"Just attack!"
"Turn over!"
"Awesome!"
"Goal!"
"World wave!"
"Hao Ren's world-class goal! His second goal!!!"
"Thank goodness it's an outside of the foot! Isn't it an outside of the foot? Isn't it an outside of the foot?!"
After completing the shot, Hao Ren raised his hands and struck a pose of swagger.
"Wow!!!!!!!!!"
Good man!

Boom!
Good man!

Bang bang bang!
"Mr. Goodman!!!"
