Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 913: Clouds on the horizon

[Net] As the Quidditch season approaches, it is not only the senior students who become anxious.

If students in the fifth grade and above carry a level of "irritability" by default, then all Quidditch team players also have this level of status, and this situation is placed in Gryffindor Academy. Will get double bonus.

After all, as the most active college in Hogwarts, they are definitely the most stressful before the exam.

On the other hand, the schedule for the new season also casts a layer of confusion in the hearts of Gryffindors.

"Saturday, we will have the first game!"

Before Percy Weasley could answer his two twin brothers, the arches of the lounge suddenly opened, and a burly and tall boy came in from the outside and said hoarsely, with indescribable fatigue in his voice.

"We must increase our training, guys, as long as we can win the first game..."

"...That means we are only one step away from the championship, and we all understand the truth, Oliver, you are almost reciting this sentence in our ears, but there is one thing you must be clear about- "

Percy Weasley glanced at the two younger brothers who were winking at him, and sighed helplessly.

He put down the book in his hand, walked to Oliver Wood, and patted the current captain on the shoulder.

"Only based on our current strength and the degree of running-in, we want to start the game and beat the'All-Stars'. Unless Miss Kaslana's right to play is used, the chances are pretty slim-I know Charlie, he never Water will be released during the game."

This school year's Quidditch game, the opener is Gryffindor Academy against the "All-Star Team".

After witnessing the first show of the team composed of previous champions, at least half of the students believed that they would win this year's championship with an overwhelming advantage. They don’t even need much subtle cooperation, just relying on muscle memory. And personal strength, you can easily complete the counter-rolling in each position.

In fact, the mere difference in strength is not even the most desperate thing.

"Charlie really knows the Gryffindor team too well. Our current system is built around him..."

Percy Weasley pushed the glasses that he pushed, and calmly analyzed softly and relentlessly, "Although I am not an expert in Quidditch matches, I also know that our victory or defeat lies in the seeker— —I’m not questioning your abilities, I believe you will be quite good in a few years, Harry — but not now, Wood, don’t be too anxious..."

Percy glanced at the thin, dark-haired boy behind Wood who seemed to be picked up from the water, and shrugged.

"Harry and Charlie are eight years old. This is not a gap that can be smoothed out by just a few weeks of hard work..."

The Hogwarts Quidditch Cup is a points match.

If Elena Kaslana’s appearance is a win plus one by default, then theoretically speaking, the "Queen of the Sky" will play almost a fixed position-appearing in the finals for Gryffindor The team locked the Quidditch trophy.

Even if there is an accident in the middle, in order to ensure the qualification for the finals, it has to wait until the semi-finals.

In other words, Gryffindor Academy must at least score the top three points in the points match.

Ignore the freshman team that is not threatening, and there are three teams left: Hufflepuff College, Slytherin College, and All-Star Team. For today's Gryffindor, these three teams are all extremely difficult bones.

After all, from the perspective of the core players of each team:

Slytherin added three faster, younger, and sharper "former Hogwarts Moonlights" members to the championship lineup the previous year. On Hufflepuff's side, Cedric Diggory finally became the new captain of the team, and they also have the terrible "Elena Two", the newly promoted style commissioner Hannah Abbot.

In comparison, Gryffindor, who has only added a head coach and seeker, is obviously much shaky.

"I understand, but we can't just give up." Wood said painfully. "We have been trying to change our game. Miss Kaslana gave us a lot of advice. If we can win the next round in the first round, At least when facing the Hufflepuffs team, the pressure will not be so great-the nightmare last year, we don't want to repeat this year..."

Last year was arguably the darkest year in Hogwarts Quidditch history.

If you use Fred’s words to describe them, they are fighting against a team led by Reaper, and in addition to Elena Kaslana as the main attacker, there is also Hannah who is the auxiliary attacker. Once they fly into the sky, their lives are completely dependent on the thoughts of the two female demon.

Even the Slytherin Quidditch team, who was once invincible, was firmly nailed in shame in the final.

"Want to start, Wood, no one can defeat the devil..."

George Weasley patted him on the shoulder sympathetically, and slapped his tongue in fear.

Oliver Wood, as a goalkeeper, is undoubtedly the one who has suffered the most damage, but when either Elena and Hannah get a ghost fly ball, it is almost equivalent to a fatal multiple-choice question:

If you block in front of the goal, you may have a certain chance to defend against the offense, but you will definitely be knocked down once.

Or simply open the door and choose to give up, placing hope on the opponent's prospects.

Obviously, Oliver Wood's pride does not allow him to abandon the goal.

In the game against the freshman team last year, Fred couldn't even remember how many times Wood was shot down-even if Elena would heal their injuries every time, but the pain cannot go away-but, The information on the scoreboard will not lie. In such a hellish game, Gryffindor still maintains the lowest conceded rate in the school.

"Yes, this year is different, the big devil is on our side!"

Fred said excitedly, and suddenly smirked.

"And we also have champions, right, Harry... In short, George and I will protect you. In the first year of the Gryffindor team, we will be successful as long as we reach the top four-the rest , That was the civil war of the demons..."

The book booth that book friends used before has gone down, and now they are basically using \Mi\Mi\Reading\app\\.

"Uh, that, I think...it seems a bit wrong for you to call Coach Kaslana like that..."

Wood blinked, and said slowly, as if the clockwork was stuck.

"What? Coach Kaslana? The big silver-haired devil and the round-faced little devil, isn't that what you said at the beginning."

Fred said, waving his hand disapprovingly, "She is really good at Quidditch, but I don't think her tactics will be of any use... For decades, we Gryffindor has been around Seekers play, if we really play the way she said, our backcourt will definitely be smashed into a sieve by the opposite side."

"Fred, behind, behind—" Percy twitched and said silently.

"...But it turns out that I'm too superficial!"

Fred Weasley was stunned for half a second, and the front turned and quickly said, "High-frequency passing, high-speed movement, one-on-one full-court press during defense, and offense uses time to create offensive rounds. This is simply The flame-like art that angels can think of..."

While talking, Fred slowly turned around, his face full of surprise and sincerity from the heart.

"Hey, head coach Kaslana, when will you be back!"

"I heard, Fred."

Elena smiled slightly, stood on her toes and patted the boy's shoulder gently.

"If you make your own claim in Saturday's game, then you have a chance to remember what the devil looks like-when we were training last semester, you interrupted a full blow to the club in five minutes, remember? "

As a little angel with knowledge of later generations, Elena has many training methods in her mind.

A fully accelerated wandering ball can easily break the arm of an adult, which means that its speed is close to the critical force shot in a football game, and the responsibility of the batter is to hit it with a bat. The opposing player, standing in place to withstand attacks at a high frequency is obviously a good way to form muscle memory.

Anyway, there is healing magic, even if the breastbone is smashed through, it can be cured, let alone the arm.

"Uh, actually I am not Fred, I am George..."

Fred scratched his cheek and said cautiously, trying to save himself one last time.

"Well, I believe you, George—"

Elena nodded disapprovingly, and pointed to the girls who were looking at the star chart by the fireplace, "Then you go and say to Angelina, you like the president of Ravenclaw's female student council, Miss Streep. ."

"...This...well...ababa..."

Fred Weasley stayed in place like a sculpture, helplessly looking at the brothers around him for help.

There are not many people in Hogwarts who can distinguish him from George. Even Percy sometimes confuses him, but Angelina and Meryl will never mistake their boyfriend. If he really Having said this in the past, he may be exempt from **** training, but it also means that he has become a single dog like Charlie and Bill again.

"Fred, I said that falling in love too early will make you flawed..."

Wood grinned and patted Fred on the shoulder, then turned his head to look at Elena, and asked seriously.

"If we use the original tactics, what is the approximate winning rate? What about the new tactics? Charlie Weasley is almost the best seeker at Hogwarts in the past decade! If we want to win, we have to beat them at least once. Row."

"Using Gryffindor's previous six-guarantee-one tactic, the winning rate is almost zero."

Elena looked at Harry's thin body for a while, and said calmly.

Harry has just entered the second grade. Most boys have just entered the developmental period at this time. Not to mention that because of living in the stairwell all year round and lack of adequate nutrition, Harry's physical development is better than other students. Be slower.

No matter how talented Harry Quidditch is, his physical disadvantage is too great.

Especially when his and Charlie's styles are still very similar, this is even more bad news for Gryffindor.

"Whether it’s arm length, experience, endurance... Harry will be completely crushed when facing Charlie. Even if Harry sees the Golden Snitch first, unless the distance is very close, Charlie’s skills can be used later. To. As for the new tactics, it is also almost equal to zero-it took less than a month to run in. It is conservatively estimated that it will take at least half a month to see the effect."

Elena said, narrowed her eyes thoughtfully and whispered.

"Actually, there is another way, but it must be too late now..."

Just like playing games, in some cases, the gap in strength and level can be filled with equipment, and now the Gringotts Wizarding Bank and the Destiny Group are about to become the world's top broomstick manufacturers.

However, most of those samples have not been finalized.

The batch of cross-age flying broomsticks is expected to be shipped to the research institute outside the school after Christmas, and the final flight test and fine-tuning by the group of researchers from the Sukhoi Design Bureau...Speaking of which, Gryffin There are so many little lions, it seems very suitable to find a part-time job, at least Quidditch fanatics like Oliver Wood will definitely not refuse... right?

Of course, as the most conscientious big capitalist in the magical world, Elena would not squeeze the value of her classmates too much.

According to the design plan she has seen before, the new “high-energy high-speed” broomsticks are all designed for the theoretical data of supersonic flight. If you want to control a broomstick of that specification, in addition to flying skills and magical abilities, The physical requirements may be slightly higher than the standards of fighter pilots.

Fortunately, in the magic world, physical fitness is still easy to strengthen-as long as you are willing to spend money.

…………

At the same time, Quidditch Stadium.

The first Quidditch game is approaching, but the weather is getting worse.

In addition to the Gryffindor Academy team and the freshman representative team, the number of applications for training venues for several other teams has obviously dropped a lot, which finally allowed the All-Star team members to find free time to train alone.

As the oldest students in this school, most of them gave up opportunities to the little guys before.

Of course, in addition to being modest, on the other hand, it feels unnecessary.

If it weren’t for the official game to begin this Saturday, the captain Charlie Weasley insisted on running in. They wouldn’t even participate in this separate training session-and the facts have also proved that training is not very useful. .

As star players who have led their respective academies to win championships, everyone knows what they should do.

As for the deeper level of cooperation, some people disdain, and some people do not allow the task...

"I said earlier, this is a complete waste of time!"

Gerald grumbled impatiently, hugging his arms.

"I have asked Professor Snape, that girl named Elena Kaslana will not be on the stage in the opening game. If you want to make Gryffindor Academy lose less, try to catch the gold as soon as possible. Snitch is fine."

"Too contemptuous of Gryffindor is a big loss. Miss Caslana is now Gryffindor's head coach."

Charlie Weasley said seriously, UU reading www.uukanshu.com from the time he was a student, he did not like Gerald.

"Big loss? Ha! The Gryffindor team with you was defeated by us, not to mention the little guys now—"

Gerald shook his head, a look of contempt in his eyes.

"I heard that Gryffindor’s seeker this time is the "Harry Potter Who Lived", Weasley, you won’t be even better than a second-year student, do you? Fighting fake matches, oh, that's a bit difficult..."

"As for the head coach? After so many years, have you heard that a Quidditch team wins by a coach."

"Don't worry, as an old opponent, I will help you recognize the reality in the Saturday game... The current Gryffindor team is just a third-rate team at the bottom. It seems to be--" Gerald Di Yan grinned, "After you left, I led the team to massacre Gryffindor for several consecutive seasons."
