2 Chapter 02 - Skill Card System
As soon as I opened my eyes, at the same time, a robotic voice echoed in my mind. Next to her, a beam of light covered my vision and continued dazzlingly for a few moments. When the light disappeared, I saw countless letters of different colors spinning and flashing along with large letters above my head.
Below the letters was a larger letter with a picture of me and some small letters and numbers below it.
When I got closer to it, I could read what was written better.
[Player: Gary Lane]
[PAC: 24 | DRI: 24]
[SHO: 22 | DEF: 50]
[PAS: 30 | PHY: 57]
[Skills): ???]
-----------------------------
"Where am I? What are these abbreviations? Why am I here?"
My mind was confused and I had countless questions, a few minutes ago I was lying on the floor and feeling enormous pain. I was about to die... so how did I get here?
"Become a genius?"
"So that wasn't... a joke?"
In the upper right part of the larger letter were abbreviations, numbers and my photo. It also had a blue bar with a circle and a question mark. This part had an extra layer, as if it was there to catch my attention.
When I brought my hand closer to it, I could feel it clickable. And after I touched my finger, a new window appeared with lots of information that answered some of the questions I had previously asked.
[Skill Card System]
[A system made by {????} based on your needs and adapted for better player performance]
[The greater the difficulty of the training, the greater your results will be later]
[The Player Card has been activated automatically, so the basic information about the skills has been unlocked]
[Information about Skill Card System]:
[The Player is in the first stage, there are still three more stages to be unlocked]
[Current internship: Basic/Early career]
[Current color: Bronze]
[Subtitles]:
PAC = Speed, SHO = Shooting, PAS = Passing, DRI = Dribbling, DEF = Defense, PHY = Physical.
After a few minutes of receiving bursts of information and better understanding this system that was in front of me, I turned my attention to the shiny cards that were flashing.
The cards had different colors and flashed constantly. The giant letters were like a manual, they had some information from the letters.
The letters formed the following information:
There are five skill levels: S, A, B, C, D, all of which can be obtained.
According to the information given to me by the system, each person is born with the talent to learn one of them.
S: one in 100,000,000
A: one in 1,000,000
B: one in 1000
C: one in 100
D: one in 3
The "Player" will be able to choose one of the skills as soon as one of its statistics stands out compared to the others, regardless of its level.
Some talented enough people are born with more than one skill, there is even a chance that you can obtain all S-Rank skills.
However, the chance of this happening is...
1/100,000,000,000,000,000,000.
[Current level of your stats: Mediocre]
[Due to the low level of his statistics, the system will have difficulty attaching a skill to the player, because of this, the training camp will be activated immediately.]
[Starting transfer...]
"What?!"
Suddenly, my body began to disappear in a strange way. Starting from top to bottom, until it completely disappears and takes me to another location. When I was sent to this other location, without me realizing it, my body was given some kind of strange black uniform with several blue dots scattered around. The ground was covered with artificial grass, it was soft, comfortable and fragrant. It had a relaxed atmosphere, different from the empty place I was in previously.
In front of me, there were four goalposts that formed a goal, apparently, this was the "training place" that the robotic voice spoke about before bringing me here.
The cards that rotated and flashed like crazy disappeared and were replaced by a huge screen. When I looked at it, I could see that there was some information about me and my current state.
Without me noticing, a ball fell from the ceiling above me and stopped in front of me. Then, a strange-looking person appeared like a hologram and positioned himself in the middle of one of the goals that were on the field.
He opened his arms, as if expecting me to try to score.
[Tutorial, First phase: Eye For Goal]
[Submission Technique Training]: The first step to improving your submission is to develop a solid and consistent technique. To do this, the player must perform specific finishing exercises.
[First exercise: Shot on goal]:
The player must practice goal kicks from different positions and angles to improve the accuracy and power of their shot. Remember to practice different types of shots, such as first-time shots, corner shots and volley shots.
Each completion that ends in success, that is, a goal, will be rewarded with 0.1 points of improvement in the attribute.
[Time remaining until the end of the first exercise: 59 minutes]
The system's information ceased as soon as it echoed for the last time, leaving only a huge timer that floated above the goalkeeper.
As soon as time started running, my heart palpitated automatically. I didn't know what was happening, everything was still very confusing, but something inside me told me to kick that ball.
And so it was done, I ran towards her and kicked with all my strength. The ball curved straight and outside, hitting the goalkeeper's right post.
As soon as I messed up, my momentary disappointment was interrupted by the sudden change of location. I had been transported to the other side, now I was a little further away from the goalkeeper.
"So... I have to hit from different places?"
My forehead was sweating, I ran to the ball again and kicked it in a different way, this time, I put the tip of my foot a little further under it, making it go higher than before.
As soon as the ball flew, it quickly fell into the drawer, but the goalkeeper stretched his body and jumped to save it.
"Heh, you won't let me hit that easily, right?"
...
60 minutes passed.
My face was covered in sweat and my hair was wet. After all this time, the system echoed again.
