บท 14: **Chapter 14: Can I Freeload While Lying Down?**
"Ding~"
"You've acquired the skill: Heartthrob Smile +1 from the full bubble. Today's collection progress: 3/10."
What???
Gunnard was stunned:
What the heck is this?
Where's the Crescent Moon Slash I wanted?
Where's the Golden Right Foot?
Where's the Long-Range Shot?
What use is a pickup skill to me? Am I supposed to use a smile to dazzle my opponents on the field?
"Reminder: This skill allows the host's smile to produce uncontrollable fluttering reactions in women, with double the effect on Victoria Beckham."
Victoria Beckham?
Oh my God…
Victoria Beckham having double the effect on me? That's not right…
This is such a rip-off. Two bubbles, and they're both so disappointing!
Gunnard was still brooding over his bad luck when the director, having recovered, frowned at him and said, "Wait a minute, where did you come from? I was wondering when you handed me the coffee earlier. I don't recall ever seeing you before."
Gunnard's heart skipped a beat, but he kept his composure.
It was time to use his realistic acting skills once more!
Gunnard calmly said, "Director James Dolores, you haven't forgotten, have you? We met last night! I'm Edward Stark, the photographer sent by the higher-ups to assist with the shoot. You told me to come directly to the beach."
"Edward Stark?" The director looked confused, trying to recall.
The director didn't think he knew anyone named Edward Stark, but the name sounded familiar, and Gunnard was so confident saying the full name… The director was beginning to doubt himself.
Gunnard lowered his voice and said, "After our conversation, you went back to the RV with a handsome young footballer…"
The director immediately put his arm around Gunnard's shoulder, "Ah! I remember now, Edward! That's right, that's right. The higher-ups always talk about you and say your skills are very good! Well, today, we have enough photographers, so you can just stand by and assist as needed."
Perfect!
Gunnard grinned, "Got it, Director."
The director then cautiously asked Beckham, "Mr. Beckham, are you feeling better? Can we start shooting now?"
Beckham, pale, waved his hand.
The director immediately announced, "Mr. Beckham says he's fine now! Let's give a round of applause for the dedicated Mr. Beckham! Everyone, get those five football actors in position!"
Beckham: …
Soon, the actors began their rehearsal.
Gunnard followed closely behind the close-up cameraman, pretending to assist.
After the rehearsal, Gunnard understood the content of the advertisement.
The ad had no dialogue. Essentially, it showed Beckham relaxing on the beach when a group of muscular guys challenges him to a game. Beckham takes a sip of Pepsi and then performs some flashy dribbling moves to impress the muscle-bound challengers.
Seeing the ad concept, Gunnard couldn't help but shake his head.
In theory, such an ad concept would suit Messi or Ronaldinho better, not Beckham.
Asking Beckham to showcase his dribbling?
---
Beckham's weakness is his dribbling skills. Even though having him drink a sip of Pepsi and suddenly becoming a great dribbler is a creative idea, Beckham himself probably won't be able to perform the smooth dribbling that the director envisions.
As expected...
When the actual shooting began, Beckham tried over a dozen times but still couldn't smoothly dribble past the five sturdy young players.
The five young men the director found were quite skilled and at the peak of their physical strength.
Several times, Beckham almost got tackled to the ground by these strong young men, which made the director extremely anxious.
Beckham grew increasingly frustrated, either kicking down the opponent or booting the ball too far ahead, making it impossible for him to catch up.
After half an hour of shooting, the ad had made no progress, and not a single usable shot had been captured.
"Let's stop filming for now!"
Beckham finally lost his temper and flung himself back onto the lounge chair to rest.
The five sturdy young men shrugged and stood on the beach, unsure of what to do.
The director clutched his head and squatted on the beach, deep in thought. The ad shoot had reached an impasse.
As an observer, Gunnard was pondering whether he should offer the director some advice when suddenly, a familiar system notification sound echoed in his mind:
*"Ding~"*
*"You have sensed 76 points of negative emotion from David Beckham. System bubble is being generated..."*
Oh?
Gunnard was momentarily stunned!
This wasn't caused by me!
During the entire half-hour shoot, I hadn't said or done anything!
If Beckham is feeling negative emotions, it should be towards those five strong guys!
Could it be that… as long as anyone within a five-meter radius of me experiences negative emotions, I can pick them up?
Gunnard looked up, and sure enough, there was a blue, glowing bubble at Beckham's feet!
Aha!
This is awesome!
If my collection range gets even larger, I could literally just lie around and collect rewards!
The only pity is that the daily collection limit is currently 10. Who knows how much I'll need to improve my personal rating to break through this limit?
*"Ding~"*
Before Gunnard could walk over to pick up Beckham's bubble, the system notification sound went off repeatedly:
*"You have sensed 35 points of negative emotion from Nelson Mart. System bubble is being generated..."*
*"Ding~"*
*"You have sensed 38 points of negative emotion from Morris Jeremy. System bubble is being generated..."*
*"Ding~"*
*"You have sensed 40 points of negative emotion from Rhodes Emmanuel. System bubble is being generated..."*
*"Ding~"*
*"You have sensed 43 points of negative emotion from Raleigh Kewolf. System bubble is being generated..."*
*"Ding~"*
*"You have sensed 45 points of negative emotion from Boyle Borg. System bubble is being generated..."*
White, ordinary bubbles appeared around the five strong young players from the Championship teams.
Wow!
So, these five young players from the Championship teams secretly harbor some dissatisfaction toward Beckham too!
Gunnard, inwardly pleased, walked past these strong young players, casually touching each of the five bubbles.
The five white bubbles transformed into five rays of light, merging into Gunnard's body.
*"Ding~ The host has collected a reward from an ordinary bubble: Leg training +10 hours. Today's collection progress: 4/10."*
*"Ding~ The host has collected a reward from an ordinary bubble: Aerobic long-distance running training +10 hours. Today's collection progress: 5/10."*
*"Ding~ The host has collected a reward from an ordinary bubble: Anaerobic sprint training +10 hours. Today's collection progress: 6/10."*
*"Ding~ The host has collected a reward from an ordinary bubble: Slalom dribbling training +10 hours. Today's collection progress: 7/10."*
*"Ding~ The host has collected a reward from an ordinary bubble: Comprehensive strength training +10 hours. Today's collection progress: 8/10."*
Awesome!
Gunnard instantly felt a boost in his physical condition.
These white bubbles from the five Championship-level players were really valuable!
This was equivalent to completing 50 hours of intense specialized training!
Moreover, combined with the 40 hours already accumulated, only 10 more hours of training rewards were needed to exchange for a valuable talent point!
While other professional players need to sweat through 100 hours of training to improve a single attribute, Gunnard only needs to collect rewards!
And this collection isn't over yet!
There's still a blue bubble with 76 points of negative emotion at Beckham's feet!
This time, I should be able to get a useful football skill, right?
end.
