Winter of 2003, California, Los Angeles, Carl Brown Community,
Roy woke up from his sleep and opened his eyes. Everything around him seemed so strange.
This was not the office he was familiar with.
He was just taking a nap in the office after lunch.
He accidentally glanced at the photo frame on the bedside table, and his memory was pulled back to 20 years ago.
The childish face in the photo frame appeared in front of him.
It was the young me 20 years ago.
The me in the photo had a confident smile and a light in my eyes.
It was a pity that this photo was lost during the multiple moves.
How could it appear here?
Roy had a vague premonition in his heart.
He felt a dull pain in his thigh under the quilt, and the slightest movement would make him sweat.
He carefully lifted the quilt and found that his knees were wrapped in thick gauze.
The forgotten memories suddenly emerged in Roy's mind.
The knee injury in college was the most unforgettable pain in his life.
From an athlete with dreams to an ordinary office worker, there is only a healthy knee.
No wonder everything around me is so strange and familiar. This is the house I rented in Los Angeles!
Looking at the young face in the mirror that he couldn't believe,
Pinching his face forcefully, the stinging pain came clearly,
Roy came to a conclusion, I am reborn!
I remember clearly that I was accidentally injured in a game with Duke University and lay in this bed for two months.
Finally, the doctor informed me that the recovery effect was very poor and I could not continue my basketball career. If I continued to insist on confrontational accidents, I would have to be accompanied by a wheelchair for the rest of my life.
Life is not just about basketball. Considering his future, Roy gave up his beloved basketball at the persuasion of his family and friends.
Roy didn't know how he survived this trough of his life in such a cruel reality.
I remember that in my previous life, I took half a year to accept this fact with the help of friends and classmates.
On the bed, Roy cursed fate, which was so cruel. Since I was reborn, why didn't you arrange a few days for me to escape that disaster?
You want me to experience this pain again, are you teasing me?
After struggling for a while, Roy calmed down and sat at the head of the bed, stroking his knees gently, and sighed to accept the result.
What if I don't accept it?
I still don't accept rebirth, what's the use? I'm still sitting here alive now. Anyway, it's not the first time.
Since fate can't be struggled, just lie down and enjoy it.
I heard that the first time was painful, but you will enjoy it more times.
I believe that it is easy to get rid of the social animal status in the previous life by relying on my own foresight, and the only thing I can do now is to heal my injuries as soon as possible.
Roy calmed down in the room.
More than ten years of office career made him an old smoker, especially when he needed to think.
Roy habitually touched his pockets to find cigarettes. After searching all over his body, he suddenly remembered that he did not smoke when he was young.
He sat at the head of the bed in a daze until he accidentally noticed the dim room.
The dark drawer of the bedside table that was not closed tightly was glowing with blue light.
He slowly opened the drawer and found a dozen star cards inside.
That was one of the few hobbies he had besides basketball when he was young. The star cards he collected over the years were neatly arranged in a drawer.
His eyes were attracted by the blue card on the top layer.
He took it in his hand and turned it to the front. It turned out to be Ray Allen's star card.
As a guard, Roy's favorite star card. He learned his playing style from him. His positioning was also very precise. He was a precise and elegant outside killer.
Although he didn't have the talent of Ray Allen, he still joined the school team with his own efforts, played in the NCAA, and established his foothold.
I was looking forward to the opportunity to impact the NBA draft in the future, but unfortunately an injury ruined everything.
[Ding, whether to load Ray Allen's talent. 】
Is it... the system?
Did I just blame fate wrongly?
Roy was a little panicked and seemed to curse fate in his heart for a long time...
But my legs are broken, what's the point of loading this talent?
Roy hesitated for a moment, silently found Michael Jordan's card from the star card and held it in his hand.
If a person is not greedy, he will be young. He has been reborn, so he must choose a stronger one. If there is Joe, choose Joe, if there is no Joe, choose Shaq. I believe that book friends will definitely agree with my idea.
After waiting for a few minutes, there was no response.
The scene was a little awkward.
Okay, I was a little greedy. I shouldn't have directly raised the highest requirement.
Buried againAfter searching for a while, he found another card a few cards below Ray Allen's card.
Roy felt that this card with Kobe Bryant's talent was acceptable. It's not that he didn't want to choose Shark, but I, a guard, couldn't use it even if I chose it.
He waited again, and it was still this damn silence. Kobe on the card grinned as if he was silently laughing at himself.
Bargaining with the system, I should be considered a rare type in rebirth.
It's really stubborn and doesn't listen to any soft or hard words.
Difficult to deal with? I think we should just forget it!
Of course, Roy thought so in his heart at the time, and his emotions were definitely not like this. He has lived two lives, so he still has some scheming and flexibility.
I quietly retrieved the card with blue light. Ray Allen is Ray Allen. I still have to take him as a minimum. After all, he is a 75-star superstar, and his talent is much better than mine.
Alas, people should be brave enough to try like me, but not too greedy.
I also complained about fate being too stingy.
In the online articles, Jordan and O'Neal are all picked at random.
When it's my turn, I only have Ray Allen. It seems so unreasonable, ungenerous, and without pattern...
"Damn it, I am reborn after all, and I have no face at all."
[Ding, whether Ray Allen's talent is integrated. ]
Roy stared at the card hesitantly, picked up the water cup next to him and took a sip,
[Ding, unknown interference detected, the talent system is disordered, the system is about to collapse, and the talent card is truly dissolved. 】
The sudden change made Roy choke and spit a mouthful of water on the card.
"Brother, I'm just talking in my mind, don't be angry, it's okay for me to choose!"
[Ding, Ray Allen, whether to merge Garnett's talent. 】
It was only then that he noticed that a Garnett card behind Ray Allen's talent suddenly glowed red.
The two cards were dissolving rapidly.
There was no time to think, and Roy chose to merge without hesitation.
The two cards, one blue and one red, turned into two beams of light and sank into Roy's body and disappeared.
[Talent and physique transformation in progress...1%]
Roy felt severe pain all over his body, and only heard in his mind "Dual card fusion, the system is re-judging, gene transformation in progress, original potential is strengthened..."
Then he lost consciousness and passed out.
…
“Ring, ring, ring~!”
Roy opened his eyes after hearing the alarm, and reached out to feel around on the bed.
A Motorola phone appeared under the pillow, and it was a flip phone.
Roy, who was used to using smart phones, was particularly uncomfortable holding a phone from more than a decade ago.
The phone kept ringing, and there was no sign of hanging up.
He picked up the phone and opened the cover. An unfamiliar phone number was displayed on the screen. He pressed the answer button with his finger.
A man’s voice was heard in his ear.
“Thank God, Roy, you finally borrowed the phone. Listen, man. This is Elton. I made an appointment for you for a follow-up visit in the afternoon. You prepare your things and wait for me at home. I’ll pick you up.”
He had just had surgery and was unable to move for two weeks. The school arranged for staff to accompany Roy for a follow-up examination.
Suddenly, Roy thought of something and sat up.
According to the original historical trend, the injury assessment report presented by the hospital was like a verdict, sentencing his years of hard work to death.
I was also abandoned by the school.
Will my fate be like this?
