Chapter 761 Vulnerable
Whoosh. Whoosh.
The air was burning, breathing was like gunpowder smoke, there was a roar above the eardrums, and the rapidly rising and falling chest stopped briefly while braking.
While running at high speed, Levi braked suddenly and once again showed his unparalleled control, staggering away from the derailed and out-of-control figure in front of him.
Close at hand, passing by.
Levi held his breath, tensed up his whole body, and used the short pause to complete the adjustment, watching the twisted face of horror and astonishment whizzing past his eyes.
stagger.
Then Levi rebooted.
This time, the speed starting from zero was pushed to the extreme without any reservation. He stood on tiptoes and released all his energy in a sprint of 100 meters.
There was no time to breathe, and another figure was already approaching quickly without stopping. Holding his breath, he followed Levi's footsteps step by step.
George Odum, an undrafted rookie this year, has always been the team's third free guard. After the two starting free guards both fell due to injuries-Hoke left the game for further examination, and he finally got Opportunity to appear; and, face the legends of rookies head-on.
Audu was a little nervous and his calves were trembling.
Although he was stuck in position early and completely took the initiative, the moment he pressed against Levi, Odu felt the power and speed flowing down like a torrential river, and his body immediately fell into a jolt.
Stumbling and stumbling.
The fifteen-yard line passed underfoot.
Audu tried to cling to Levi, but he felt that he could not keep up with the speed. Just like Bran in "Game of Thrones", he was completely attached to Levi, and he could not feel the ground contact with his footsteps. Touch, the ground is obviously under the feet, but there is no grip of gravity.
Audu panicked.
Before Audu could come up with a solution, Levi braked again. And again and again.
Audu:? ? ?
He watched helplessly as Levi retreated further and further away, but why did Levi retreat?
Oh, it wasn't Levi who retreated, it was him who retreated.
After half a beat, Odu realized that he had been thrown out, and he continued to retreat uncontrollably, widening the distance.
Audu applied the emergency brake to barely control himself, but immediately saw Levi start again, starting at full speed like a storm.
At the ten-yard line, Levi passed and Audu followed, trying to catch up.
However, just as his steps started, Odu could see the green and red colors all over the world retreating rapidly, as if playing at ten times speed.
At the five-yard line, Audu was almost suffocating. His speed had increased to the extreme. His footsteps could no longer keep up with the speed of his brain. He raised his head and looked at Levi's back. The red number 23 was in front of him. Burning like a flame, so close yet so far:
Running faster and farther, running further and further.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, the distance was instantly opened. Audu stretched out his arm and tried to make up the gap, but found in despair——
It's too late.
A powerful rider, unstoppable.
Five yards, ten yards, not even a blink of an eye.
Then Levi stopped.
Stand in the end zone!
Easily, unstoppably, piercing the heart of the Indianapolis Colts.
Turning around, Levi looked towards the court, with a calm face and a burning gaze. Although he was out of breath, even though he was sweating profusely, even though his face was red, he was not embarrassed at all. Not only was he not there, but he also had a kind of carefreeness and wantonness, and all his energy was released without reservation. That powerful force swept the entire place.
Levi, standing tall and tall in the end zone, forced the dust-eating figures behind him to look up.
Audu, first among them.
Then, Levi raised his right index finger and stood upright.
Audu was stunned for a moment and noticed that the focus of Levi's eyes was not on him. He followed Levi's gaze and looked over, and he could see an embarrassed Leonard stopping not far ahead.
Levi gently shook his finger:
You, no. Drive straight in, see blood and seal your throat——
Touchdown, again.
Felix could no longer control himself. He clenched his fists tightly and his eyes were filled with tears. He could feel the surge and surge of life force, so clear and powerful. His blood was burning and the depths of his soul were suppressed. The suppressed emotions were finally released.
Since the incident last Sunday, Felix has been suppressing and enduring, trying his best to show a positive and sunny side, not wanting Karen to worry; but the fear and vulnerability deep in his heart are swallowing up his energy bit by bit, and he feels I might not be able to hold on anymore.
Until now——
There is no end. This is not the point.
Ahhhh, ahhhhh.
It is anger, sadness, and despair; it is also fighting spirit, passion, and vitality.
Felix finally roared.
Then, sing your heart out.
"He's here, he's there, he's everywhere, he's the Edgewalker, Levi Levi Levi!"
Karen's heart skipped a beat.
She felt the complexity hidden in Felix's shouts. In an instant, fear engulfed her heart, and she deeply felt her own insignificance and helplessness.
But only for a short moment.
Taking a deep breath, Karen looked at the TV screen:
Felix didn't give up, Levi didn't give up, and she couldn't give up either.
Even though they knew that this was a battle that was destined to end, it didn't mean that they couldn't enjoy every minute and second of the remaining game.
Right?
One after another, Karen joined Felix, even louder and harder than Felix, shouting with all the strength of her soul.
Arrowhead Stadium was on fire.
"...Wow, unbelievable atmosphere."
"Today's Kansas Chiefs showed a proactive spirit, and their desire for victory can be felt through the screen. It is so strong and hot, as if they are eager to escape from the hands of death."
"This is really rare."
"I'm afraid, this is something that no one expected - the defending champion's desire to win."
"There is no doubt that the defending champions are ready to face all difficulties. They did not sit back and wait for their opponents to attack them. Instead, they put themselves in the position of attackers and showed the belief of winning from the beginning."
"The key now is that the Indianapolis Colts expected a difficult situation, but did they expect it to reach this level?"
"Here, I'm not talking about the score."
"It is true that the Indianapolis Colts are behind, but not by much, just a touchdown. We still have enough time to write the story and allow different possibilities to happen, so the score is not the focus now."
"The focus is on the whole situation."
"The Indianapolis Colts defense has been completely defeated by their opponents. In the two waves of offenses by the Kansas Chiefs so far, this defense has done almost nothing. They have been suppressed in all directions from passing to the ground. They have not even had one effective sack. There was no hug, it was chaos.”
"From strategy to state to on-the-spot reaction, the Indianapolis Colts defensive team is useless and lackluster. Even Leonard, who performed well in the regular season, is also sluggish and completely lost in the shock wave of the Kansas City Chiefs."
"Vulnerable!"
"There wasn't even a decent confrontation. It was a complete disaster."
"So, what's next?"
"How should Reich adjust his layout? If the Indianapolis Colts defense cannot organize an effective defense, they will soon be completely involved in the Kansas Chiefs' offensive torrent."
"Believe me, this is definitely a situation Leitch doesn't want to see."
