Hogwarts: I Am Such a Model Wizard Chapter 406

Chapter 406 The game begins

　　The previous disastrous defeat against Slytherin left the Gryffindor students in a depression for a long time. For a long time, they did not discuss any topics related to Quidditch.

 But Harry's Firebolt undoubtedly made them regain their confidence and become fanatical again.

 And this craze has only grown stronger as time goes by.

Especially on Friday, in just one morning, Gryffindor's scoring hourglass dropped a lot, directly from the original second position to the last place.

They were so excited that they couldn't help but discuss Quidditch during class, and then their points were deducted by the professors who couldn't bear it.

 Snape contributed the most to this, and half of the points that were deducted were due to him.

When the Gryffindors came to their senses, they found that their college had been deducted nearly 200 points... This result also made them restrain themselves a lot.

 The next morning, Kyle went to the auditorium to have breakfast with Cedric and Connor.

Today is the match day. From the moment they walked into the auditorium, many people's eyes fell on him and Cedric.

 As the first team to face Firebolt, they received no less attention than Harry.

Especially Ravenclaw, most of the people at the table were looking at them.

“Davis thought this would be a good opportunity to see how well the Firebolt performed.”

Qiu Mao sat down next to Kangna and whispered: "Besides, he can't think of any way to deal with the Firebolt, so he just wants to see what you guys are going to do.

 Say, are you really okay? If Gryffindor wins by too many points, we will have no chance of winning at all. "

"Don't worry, leave it to us." Cedric patted his chest and said, "We have been training for a long time. I must let Wood know that he is happy too early."

 At a quarter past ten, Hufflepuff set out for the dressing room.

 The weather is very good today, sunny and cool, and the breeze is very comfortable.

To be honest, this is not good news for Hufflepuff. They have various props provided by Kyle, which actually has an advantage in relatively bad weather.

  Unfortunately, this is not something they can decide.

The sound of students from the whole school pouring into the stadium could be heard outside. With the noisy voices, you could tell without looking that there must be a lot of people coming.

“Don't be nervous.” Cedric said as everyone was about to leave the locker room: “We have trained many times, it will be fine!”

 They walked out onto the court and the cheers were deafening.

But after the Gryffindor team wearing red uniforms came out, the cheers around them became obviously louder.

 The two sides came to the center of the court.

“Digory, Wood, shake hands!” Ms. Hooch said crisply, and Cedric stepped forward and shook Wood's hand.

　　"Get on the broom and listen to my whistle, three...two...one..."

Kyle only felt a whistling sound.

The Firebolt was faster than other broomsticks and jumped out in the blink of an eye. Cedric followed closely behind. The two of them hovered over the court and began to squint their eyes to look for the Golden Snitch.

 The voice of explanation also came from the stands.

“The game has begun. The biggest attraction of this game is the Firebolt that Harry Potter rides. The "Broomstick Encyclopedia" says that the Firebolt is the first choice broomstick for the national team in this year's World Cup..."

"Jordan, can you tell us about the game?" Professor McGonagall's voice interrupted.

"No problem, Professor, just a little background information. By the way, the Firebolt has a built-in braking device, which can accelerate faster..." "Jordan!"

“Okay, okay, now Hufflepuff is in possession of the ball. This action is so familiar...Harris probably taught Kyle his ball grabbing skills...He is ready to throw the ball...Can Wood..."

 “Oh...Wood missed the ball and Hufflepuff scored!”

Harry waved his arms in the air in annoyance and searched for the whereabouts of the Golden Snitch more carefully, but when he turned around, he found Cedric following closely behind him.

Every time he tried to change direction, the opponent would pass in front and force him to change direction.

Harry had the feeling that Cedric didn't care about the Golden Snitch, but just wanted to disturb him.

"Show him your acceleration, Harry!" Fred shouted, aiming a Bludger at Kyle.

Kyle had just used a nimble turn to **** the Quaffle away from Angelina, and now it was speeding towards the Gryffindor goal post.

Faced with the Bludger played by Fred, he had no intention of avoiding it.

The next second, Mikel flew over from the side, raised his arm and hit the Bludger elsewhere.

　　"Just rush forward!" Will flew over from the other side and blocked the second Bludger.

 “…Leave the rest to us!”

With their help, Kyle successfully reached the goal post, then raised his hand and threw the ball...not into the goal, but to Grace on the right.

 “Diagonal pass...Kyle's most commonly used feint!”

Jordan said loudly: "But it's very useful... Wood's attention is on Kyle, and Grace scores... She is the new Chaser who joined the Hufflepuff team this year... What a charming girl!"

Wood stared at Kyle, breathing heavily, looking like an angry bison.

Kyle shrugged, high-fived Grace and returned to the middle of the court again.

 Less than five minutes into the game, it was 20-0, and Gryffindor was directly at a disadvantage.

 In the stands, Hufflepuff's cheers almost covered Li Jordan's commentary.

 "Fred, George, what are you doing!" Wood roared: "Hurry up and knock him off the broom!"

"We...have been doing this!" Fred yelled as he struggled to hit the Bludger towards Kyle: "But two of their team's batters seemed to have settled next to Kyle...Damn, they were blocked again. Got it!"

 At this time, Kyle is not the only one who is surrounded by others on the court, the same is true for Harry.

Harry felt that Cedric was almost clinging to him, and he couldn't get rid of him no matter how hard he tried, because he couldn't keep speeding up and had to stop and look for the Snitch.

At this time, Cedric would always catch up from behind and continue to interfere with him.

Once he saw it all, that golden light was flapping its little wings and flying behind Angelina Johnson's ears... But when he was about to speed up and rush over, his sight was blocked by Cedric.

 Although he decisively went around in the other direction, in these critical seconds, the snitch disappeared.

 “Harry, now is not the time to be friendly.”

Wood, who also saw the Golden Snitch, shouted loudly: "Knock him off the broom if necessary!"
