Chapter 559 Crisis Awareness


Chapter 559 Crisis Awareness
The sky was slightly bright.

The ink above the head slowly blurs out, and the light dark blue reflects the sunrise in the distance on the horizon, quietly waking up the city that has been sleeping all night.

Tap tap, tap tap.

The sound of rustling footsteps came from far and near, and appeared in the training base, disturbing the silence. The birds staying on the branches looked over one after another, and a young man wearing white short-sleeved blue shorts came in. As soon as he saw it, the sweat on his forehead was turning into steaming heat.

The chill of early spring lingers with every breath.

Levi's biological clock has become accustomed to the Watt training camp mode. He agreed with Mahomes last night that he should adjust back to the daily training mode today, delaying his sleep time and waking up later; however, when the time comes, his body will wake up naturally. come over.

Since he was already awake, there was no reason to lie on the bed and be lazy.

So, jogging all the way to the training base.

Faintly, I began to look forward to the new challenges that will come in the new season.

Um? etc. There are already people at the training base.

Could it be Mahomes?
Entering the training ground, the figure who was placing the rope ladder also caught the movement. He was slightly startled, turned around and looked over. Both of them were stunned.

Levi didn't expect that there would be someone earlier than him, with a perverted level higher than him and Watt.

The other party did not expect that it would be Levi, the new Super Bowl MVP, the team's key training core at the time when the horseshoe disease was coming, but he arrived at the training base early on the first day of the voluntary training camp.

For a moment, there was some silence.

"Good morning, Chris." In the end, Levi was the first to react, breaking the silence and saying hello with a smile.

The tall, dark and muscular man in front of him was a little reserved and did not respond. He just nodded politely and then continued to focus on playing with the rope ladder in his hand.

Chris Jones, who joined the team a year earlier than Levi, was selected by the Kansas City Chiefs with the 37th overall pick in the second round of 2016 and serves as a defensive tackle.

Last year, Levi, Mahomes, freshmen and sophomores from a year earlier often gathered together to discuss tactics and conduct training, and the relationship was pretty good about helping each other, including Jones.

However, Jones is a defensive tackle and is not on the same team as Levi on a daily basis; in addition, Jones always seems slower when he is with them -

It's not that he is stupid, but he is like a sloth with "lightning", he is habitually slow to respond, chooses silence most of the time, and does not integrate into the overall atmosphere.

Therefore, the relationship between the two people is not considered familiar, that is, they are just ordinary acquaintances.

Levi was a little surprised to see Jones here at this moment.

Originally, defensive tackles were like a mountain of honest meat. There were still only a few defensive tackles like Aaron Donald who used the gym as their bedroom. Their daily life was closer to that of a sumo wrestler.

And now, getting up early? Rope ladder? train?

Not quite normal.

But Levi didn't think much about it. No matter what, Jones was willing to train actively, which was a good thing.

Without dialogue, Levi began to focus on his training.

Jones took a furtive glance and saw that Levi's training program was really terrifying. He couldn't help but wonder if this was the daily training of the SEALs.

As expected of a devil, he actually got upgraded after an offseason——

Upgrade from T800 to T1000.

Ah, oh no, they caught each other's eyes.

The muscles in the back of Jones' neck stiffened for a moment, and the movement of turning his head to avoid sight was a beat slower, which made it even more strange. He cursed a few words depressingly, but looked at Levi again, and Levi responded politely with a smile, which made Jones Jones felt a little relieved and secretly encouraged himself to increase his courage.

"Rookie."

Jones called out, "Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course." Levi responded in a loud voice, still moving his joints in place. Jones took a deep breath and said, "Can you train with me one-on-one on grappling and evasion?"

Levi smiled, "Of course." He thought Jones was planning something big, but this was it?
Levi walked over and wiped his sweat, "Confrontational or technical?"

"Technology." Jones said quickly.

He tried to explain, but after running his thoughts around in his mind, he still didn't know how to speak, so he rolled up his sleeves and started directly without words.

first.

Levi made a pendulum-like horizontal swing and feinted a shot, easily passing the level.

Second time.

Jones was the first to make a tackle, and his hands had already touched Levi. However, before the tackle could be closed, Levi spun 360 degrees clockwise to escape. He pressed against Jones' body, not only breaking through from the right side, but also relying on body collisions. The force almost made Jones throw himself forward.

Jones was a little ashamed, and he couldn't tell whether he was blushing or not with his dark cheeks. He just said dullly, "Come again."

The third time.

Levi made a fake move to move forward, but instead waited for a step and formed a confrontation with Jones. One tried to grapple and the other tried to escape. Seeing the arms entangled, Jones was about to use his size and strength to form a physical suppression, but Levi grabbed Seizing the gap, he took the initiative to step forward and hit Jones' shoulder. As soon as he exerted force, the two people's bodies were staggered.

Levi breaks through again.

Huchihuchi.

Jones was panting like an ox. Although the confrontation in a short period of time was mainly based on skills and neither of them used their full strength to engage in a head-on confrontation, the burning feeling quickly swept through his body.

Jones stared at Levi, unwillingness flashed in his eyes——

Come again.

He wanted to say this, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them this time.

This is the problem he urgently needs to solve:

Grappling stability.

In his first grade, he performed well with the brute strength and spirit of a newborn calf. In addition, people are always more tolerant to rookies, so he entered the Rookie All-American Team.

In his sophomore year, he suddenly found that the tackle that had been effective from college to the previous year was no longer working. Even if he tackled the opponent, he was often easily shaken off. This caused a significant decline in his performance, and he only made one start throughout the season. Five games, other times as a rotation or on special teams.

In a blink of an eye, the third grade is here.

The pressure is further stacked, especially last season when we witnessed Levi, a rookie, become the mainstay of the team with his unparalleled performance. Not only on the court, but also outside the court, he gradually developed leadership style.

To say I'm not envious is a 100% lie.

Jones knows that he needs to polish his grappling skills and do his best to fight for his place in the team, otherwise next year will be the last year of his rookie contract, leaving him little time to prove himself and continue to grow.

The sense of crisis made Lightning start to work harder.

Throughout the offseason, Jones has been practicing grappling and polishing his skills. He thought he had grown and improved, but he completely collapsed when facing Levi——

In terms of body shape, at 6.6 feet (198 centimeters) and 310 pounds (141 kilograms), Jones is completely two sizes larger than Levi. He also gained weight and muscle during the offseason this year to further enhance his physical advantage. However, he is still Ruined to pieces.

Self-esteem and pride were shattered all over the ground.

So, what to do now?
Angry and aggrieved, annoyed and irritable.

Jones wanted to turn away, but finally controlled himself.

He needs to make progress, and he needs to know what the problem is.
