Chapter 674: 673 Secret Passage through Chen Cang
“Li Wei!”
“Li Wei!”
Like a tsunami, an overwhelming surge, a rolling heat wave swirled throughout the venue.
In an instant, it engulfed Li Wei.
Li Wei was also startled—
This scene was something he had never experienced before.
...
The competition was still ongoing, was this really okay?
However.
The surging heat wave approached, and one could clearly feel the slight sting of flames licking at the skin; it was so real and so torrential that his heart trembled uncontrollably.
Li Wei’s smile gently lifted, and as he waved to the fans on both sides of the player’s tunnel, this gesture sent the fans’ cheers climbing another step, becoming uncontrollable.
Just as he was about to leave, he paused for a moment, raised his head, and looked through the crowd, finding that figure in the same area—
Felix.
Felix without the wheelchair, slightly unfamiliar, but this youthful and vibrant Felix filled one with a surge of vitality.
He was fighting, even if he couldn’t break free from the wheelchair, he was still battling in his own way on a foreign field, fighting alongside Kansas City Chiefs.
Li Wei brought his index and middle finger together, touching the tip of his brow, and made a salute gesture.
Felix saw it, and he understood completely, joy exploding within him, “Mom, Mom! Did you see it? Mom!”
One call after another.
Felix, exerting all his strength, raised his hands high, losing himself as he screamed, “Li Wei! Li Wei!”
The whole venue roared.
Not just the spectators.
The players of the Kansas City Chiefs standing by the field also turned their gaze, one after another filled with enthusiasm. They waited alongside the cheering crowd, whistling and clapping, exuberantly cheering and making noise.
Houston was the first to step forward, patting Li Wei on the shoulder, sizing him up, stopping short of speaking, although a thousand words surged up his throat, in the end, he swallowed them down, said nothing, and just punched Li Wei on the shoulder, then burst into a hearty, unrestrained laughter.
The Kansas City Chiefs changed possession.
Baltimore Ravens, struck out.
Kansas City Chiefs, struck out.
Both sides, taking turns to take the field.
After Li Wei rejoined the game, although the morale at Arrowhead Stadium was significantly boosted and expectations climbed higher, the offensive and defensive clash between the two teams remained fiercely contested.
The Kansas Chiefs managed to push past midfield twice in head-to-head attacks, invading the territory of the Baltimore Ravens; yet the Ravens Defense showed their top form at critical moments, once intercepting Mahomes to switch possession, and once stopping Li Wei dead in his tracks with a strong frontal counter.
Similarly, the Baltimore Ravens Offense failed to seize the opportunity as well, their slightly rough and clumsy offensive strategy lacked explosive power and stability. Up against the unyielding Kansas City Chiefs Defense, their drives ended in striking out and they failed to take the lead.
“17:17”.
Still a tie.
The score did not change for a long while, just like in the first half, as the standoff between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Baltimore Ravens once again resulted in a deadlock.
The game time kept ticking; the scene and the atmosphere grew increasingly tense and intense, the closer to the end of the game it got, the thicker the air became.
On the brink of a stalemate.
Until, “04:04”, with just four minutes and four seconds left to the end of the game, the deadlock was finally broken.
This time, it was Lamar Jackson’s moment.
Unexpectedly, without any warning, out came a play from out of nowhere, a long pass strategy—
Jackson found himself in another crisis, once again relying on his physical talent to actively run out of the Pocket, once more using his feet to free himself.
Then, the pass, as expected by the Kansas Chiefs; but this time, Jackson took a risk with a thirty-three-yard long pass, utterly shattering expectations.
Completely catching the Kansas City Chiefs off-guard.
The first and only time in the game sneaking behind Kansas City Chiefs’ backfield, finding the team’s fifth Wide Receiver, John Brown.
This fifth-year Wide Receiver, unheard of before, was cut by the Arizona Cardinals during the offseason, struggled to find a job, and was only picked up by the Baltimore Ravens after training camp; prior to this, he had been alternately stepping in and out of games, playing a firefighter role.
Today, facing the defending champions, he made the most crucial reception of the season at a critical moment.
John Brown not only successfully caught the ball but also swiftly advanced into the End zone—
Touchdown.
