Chapter 122 Competition
In a blink of an eye, two months passed quickly.
this day.
The sky is clear and the temperature is moderate, which is rare good weather for the island country of England.There is only a slight breeze, but it will not affect the flight of the broomstick.
It was completely different from the game between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. The players' sights would not be disturbed in any way, and the visibility was the highest. It was the best environment for the two teams to display their tactics and skills.
In the lounge, Su Ziqiong opened his broomstick case, revealing a smooth and well-maintained Firebolt.Although the teammates had already admired it in advance, they still gathered around and wanted to touch this expensive game equipment, as it seemed that it would bring them good luck.
"It's so perfect!" Collins stroked the handle of the Firebolt in ecstasy, as if he was admiring his girlfriend's appearance. "If I can't even win the competition with such a work of art, I dare to dismantle Mrs. Hooch's broom!"
"Harry Potter also has one, Collins!" Stuart Ackley couldn't help but poured cold water on him.
"But we have one too!" Heidi was admiring Qiu's Firebolt in her hand, and she gave Stuart a hard look, "I really want to see the guys in Gryffindor see these two Firebolts." eyes!"
"Okay, girls and boys, everyone get your brooms, it's time for us to go out!" Felius said loudly, barely looking away from the Firebolt. "Let's go teach Gryffindor a lesson!"
"We must win!" The morale of the entire Ravenclaw team has been stimulated by the Firebolt.The team members adjusted their blue robes one after another, followed Felius, and came to the field in a row.There, a line of scarlet figures was already waiting.
……
……
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the second round of the Hogwarts Quidditch Cup! Today's opponents are Gryffindor and Ravenclaw!"
Early in the morning.
Lee Jordan's loud voice resounded throughout the stadium, causing enthusiastic cheers from the audience.
"There is no doubt that the biggest highlight of the day is Harry Potter, Gryffindor's Seeker! He will ride Hogwarts' first Firebolt! According to the book "Classifying Broomsticks" According to the book, the Firebolt will be the first choice of the national team participating in this year's World Cup!"
Lee Jordan's voice continued to echo in the air, but this time his words were booed by the students of Ravenclaw and Slytherin House.
Only the scarlet Gryffindor crowd erupted in cheers.
"Harry and the Firebolt will definitely win!" Parvati Patil said firmly to Hermione, clenched her fists, the blush from the excited cheers still remained on her face. "No one can beat a Firebolt!"
"But maybe Harry isn't the only one with a Firebolt. Ravenclaw is not that simple." Facing her roommate's excitement, Hermione couldn't help but want to vaccinate her.
"Ah, by the way, the person you like will also be playing today!" Parvati Patil suddenly realized, "Hermione, which side do you support?"
"A woman who doesn't even know anything about Quidditch, what's the use of her support?" Ron turned around in the front row, and sarcastically said, "Parvati, can she like Gaunt? Guy with a girlfriend, do you need to ask which side you support, and besides, that guy is not something to mess with!?" He gave Hermione a contemptuous sideways glance from the corner of his eye.
"Weasley, you don't seem to have to worry about who I like, right?" Hermione couldn't help it no matter how good-tempered she was.Although Scabbers returned to Ron's dormitory a few days ago and cleared Crookshanks' unfair grievances, there seemed to be some subtle changes in the relationship between Ron and Hermione. "I'd love for Gryffindor to win too, but I'm pretty sure my boyfriend will win this game!"
She angrily left her seat and ran to sit beside Lisa Dupin.The red robe was particularly eye-catching in the blue sea of Ravenclaw, she seemed to be oblivious to it, and only focused on chatting with Lisa.
"Okay, now the Ravenclaw Quidditch team is starting to enter!" Lee Jordan's voice sounded again, "Their captain Filius walked at the front, then goalkeeper Collins, Andre... Carmichael and his girlfriend, Seeker Qiu Zhang, walked at the end with relaxed faces and smiles. Did they regard this game as a date?"
"Jordan!" Professor McGonagall's angry voice completely covered Lee Jordan's voice, Ravenclaw's seat was almost boiling, and everyone was angry at Lee Jordan's statement.
"That's a fool!" Terry Boot flushed with anger.
"Okay, Terry, they'll cry later!"
Hermione hurried over to comfort her, shaking her head. "Did he really think that a Firebolt would win?"
As if to match her sigh, Li Jordan's surprised voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh! What did I see!" His voice was full of disbelief, and everyone looked at him in surprise.
"Firebolt! Ravenclaw has the same Firebolt as Gryffindor! It's in the hands of Mr. Andre!"
With a "wow", everyone in the Gryffindor stands stood up in surprise, and stretched their necks to get a better view.
"That's right! Same Firebolt! There might be trouble for Gryffindor!"
Lee Jordan wasn't alone in feeling this way, the entire Gryffindor Quidditch team felt the same way.When they saw the brand-new Firebolt in Su Ziqiong's hands, all of them fell into shock, including the complacent Captain Wood and Harry, who was thinking about how to make Qiu lose too badly.
"Damn..." Wood clenched his teeth, looking at Felius with a relaxed smile in front of him, as if his eyes were about to burst into flames.
"Hidden well, Filius!" Wood's voice came out from between his teeth, as if he had a toothache.This was his last chance to win the Quidditch Cup. He thought that with Harry's Firebolt, his chances would be greatly improved, but he didn't expect to encounter this situation.
"You're wrong, Oliver. To us, the Firebolt is nothing but a broom." Felius began to show his noble consciousness. "We never think which brooms we need to win the game. My players are the best guarantee for victory!"
"Okay, captains, shake hands." The gray-haired Mrs. Huo Qi didn't care about their "sympathy" emotion, and said with a blank expression.
"Okay, get on the broomstick. Listen to my whistle! Three-two-one-beep-"
Mrs. Hooch whistled, the ball box was kicked away, and the Snitch disappeared in a flash.Fifteen broomsticks rose straight into the air, and the battle between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw officially began!
Felius and Wood took a step forward and clasped their hands tightly, as if trying to crush each other's hand bones.
