The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 98 Hot-blooded Quidditch (2)

The snow stopped, but the rain kept getting heavier.

There was an icy chill in the air, but it never extinguished the enthusiasm for Quidditch in the hearts of the audience, and people were cheering for the teams they supported.

In an inconspicuous corner of the auditorium, Albert and several roommates were watching the game, and beside them sat the soaked Hagrid.A few people around, completely ignoring the freezing rain, were cheering for Gryffindor's goal.

Albert lowered his spectacles, pulled out his wand and used the invulnerability spell on the lenses to prevent the rain from obscuring his vision.

On the Quidditch pitch, the fierce confrontation continued.Slytherin never loses, and they quickly seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Chaser Monta, under the cover of his teammates, carried the ghost ball into the scoring zone, and the batsman Locke, not far away, skillfully seized the opportunity to hit the Bludgers flying towards him to Gryffindor goalkeeper Wood. .

Wood was staring at Monty, trying to stop the opponent from scoring, but he didn't notice a Bludger flying toward him, and when he heard the Bludger break, he hurriedly dodged, narrowly dodging the Blugger's attack. .

Before Wood completely recovered from the panic, Monta had seized the opportunity to break through Danny's blockade, grabbing the ghost ball and smearing Wood's face.

A wave of "fouls" sounded in areas other than Slytherin, and the heavy rain in the sky was faintly suppressed in this sound.

In the auditorium, Albert watched this scene and felt that his face was aching. He must have felt bad for being smeared by the ghost ball.

"A Quidditch player is still a high-risk profession!"

"What, what are you saying just now, I didn't hear it clearly." Hagrid next to him held up his binoculars, looked straight at the sky, and heard Albert's whisper and asked loudly.

"It's nothing." Before Albert could sigh, he heard Fred next to him exclaim, "No, Wood is going to fall!"

At this moment, most of the people in the audience stood up in horror and looked at Wood, who was spiraling down. Some screamed in horror, and some closed their eyes, for fear of seeing Wood's tragic state.

Wood, whose face was covered with a ghost ball by Monta, was still in a state of dizziness. He instinctively reached out and grabbed his broom, slid down the railing of the scoring ring, and fell on the lawn of the Quidditch pitch. The injury was not serious. too serious.

Mrs. Hooch immediately blew the whistle, announced the game was suspended, and fell to Wood's side to check the goalkeeper's injury.

Madam Pomfrey walked into the field with a sullen face in exasperation, and she used a spell to heal Wood's cheek injury and poured him a potion to get the Gryffindor keeper back on his feet.

However, this violent Quidditch game still annoyed Madam Pomfrey. The head nurse said that if anyone is injured, just go to the school hospital and lie down for a few days.

"The Slytherin Seeker Montaigne attacked the Gryffindor keeper in an unheard of despicable act, and the Slytherins scored one more goal and the score is now [-]-[-]. , Gryffindor is [-] points ahead... Wait, the referee announced that Slytherin fouled, the goal just scored is invalid, and the current score between the two sides is [-]-[-]." The commentator shouted excitedly. : "Gryffindor has a [-]-point advantage. At present, the Seekers on both sides are looking for the Snitch. Who will catch the Snitch first? Which team will win, we will wait and see. "

Unfortunately, the bad weather and the surrounding visibility were also very bad, it was not easy to find the Snitch, and the game was still going on.

Wood's recovery was a big boost to the Gryffindor crowd, who reverberated with Gryffindor cheers.

"Mrs. Hooch blew the whistle again, and the game continued. How Gryffindor will fight back, let's wait and see." The Ravenclaw commentator was so excited that he completely forgot that he was explaining a game Ditch game.

"Kill the Slytherin team, kill the monte; kill the Slytherin team, kill the monte!" At this moment, such an unprecedented roar broke out in the Gryffindor auditorium.

This sound gave Albert an inexplicable illusion that he was actually watching a duel, not a Quidditch match.

A few minutes later, the Gryffindor players lived up to expectations and launched a new round of revenge on the Slytherin team, targeting Monta, the Chaser who had just used the ghost ball to attack Wood.

Mark and Irene are lovers, and the two have a strong tacit understanding. The two exchanged glances in mid-air, and Mark directly accelerated to hit the batter Locke.With the help of her boyfriend, Violent hitter Erin threw the Bludgers away, targeting Monta, who was besieged by the three acrobatic brothers.

Monta was blocked by three people, and thought that the three chasers next to him were going to attack him, but he didn't realize that the real lore came from the Bludger behind him.

"Oh, my God, I hit it. The Bludger hit by the violent hitter Erin successfully hit Monta. This is really painful. I hope he can break a few more ribs...cough, I am Said I hope he's fine!" The commentator coughed lightly and quickly changed his tune, "The referee didn't blow the whistle, there is no doubt that there was no violation in this counterattack."

Although the Slytherin team took the opportunity to score ten points, their chasing hand has been injured and fell to the ground, which is completely worth the loss.

"What's the matter, Madam Pomfrey didn't show up, could it be..." The commentator's tone was gloating, "Don't our head nurse like the Slytherin players?"

Monta was forced to leave the game because Madam Pomfrey had returned to the school hospital in a panic, and he was obviously unable to continue the game without treatment.

Albert saw the black-faced Snape pulling out his wand and conjuring a stretcher through his spectacles, and asked the students to take Monty to the school hospital on the second floor of the castle.

It is said that Madam Pomfrey only took a few seconds to connect the broken rib to Monta, but the unlucky bastard was obviously unable to continue playing.

According to the official rules established by the Department of Magical Sports and Sports: In the event of a disability, no other athlete can be replaced.

This means Slytherin has one less Chaser.

However, most of the Gryffindor audience regretted, why not Slytherin Seeker Marcus Flint?
However, this dirty Quidditch match has only just begun.

Slytherin was at a disadvantage with one player missing, and they began to brazenly attack Gryffindor players.

The series of changes on the field made Albert stunned. In the monocular, the four batsmen, who were riding brooms and flying under the rain curtain, actually fought together like swordsmen with bats in their hands.

Nearby, Fred and George were muttering violent words, "hit him, yes, aim at his head... pierce his eyes...".

The Slytherin players went to contain Charlie together, preparing to send Charlie off the field first. Once Gryffindor loses the Seeker, it basically means losing the game.

In the end, a group of people riding broomsticks scuffled together in the sky. The most lethal was the batsmen on both sides. They were attacking each other's players with bats. Erin also knocked out Locke's bat, which is unlucky. He was knocked on the elbow by Erin with a stick, and before he recovered, he was kicked again by Jack and almost fell off the broom.

However, Gryffindor had several others who were also slightly injured.

A furious Mrs Hooch ordered the four batsmen to leave the field, even though it was not in the rules, who made the four hit the hardest just now?

In the words of Mrs. Hooch, staying on the field is simply disgracing Hogwarts.

The original 15-person venue suddenly lost five people, and the huge stadium felt a lot empty all of a sudden.

Even without the batter, the Gryffindor Chasers still had a way, as if they were in a relay ceremony, taking the bat from the batter who left the field.At least, that's what Danny did, the acrobatic runner serving as a chaser and a hitter at the same time.

This time, they targeted Slytherin Seeker Marcus Flint.

Charlie, Jack and Mario compressed Marcus' space in three directions, pushing the Seeker to the edge of the court.Then, they all made Mark's fake moves, waving their fists and feet to greet each other rudely.

As for hitting the target?

Sorry, that was a tactical error.

Free throws, nobody cares.

As long as the opponent's Seeker can be killed, the victory of the game naturally belongs to Gryffindor.

"Charlie, didn't you say it's forbidden to use Mark's fakes?" Jack waved his elbow at Markus while teasing his captain. He "accidentally" hit the opponent's kidney with his elbow, and his own nose also He was beaten by a fist from the right.

In the rear, Danny, who was holding the ghost ball in one hand and the bat in the other, had already caught up, and he was "chased" by two Slytherin pursuers.

Danny threw the ghost ball that was in the way to Jack, and he greeted Marcus behind Marcus with a stick, ready to kick him out of the stage completely.

However, Danny didn't know that Jack, who had just caught the ghost ball, was the first to be unlucky. One of the two Slytherin pursuers hit him directly, and the other kicked him on the body. Jack still didn't respond. When he came over, he was kicked off the broom. Fortunately, he still grabbed the flying broom with one hand, and slammed into the audience, and fell hard enough.

Fortunately, he didn't fall into the Slytherin auditorium, otherwise he would have to face a large-scale brawl, and a group of spectators joined to beat Jack.

"Danny, you actually cheated on me!" Jack covered his injured waist and couldn't help yelling.

On the other hand, Slytherin's Seeker situation was also a bit bad. Marcus, who was blocked by the three, was beaten by the three.

The sharp whistle pierced through the rain, and the furious Mrs. Hooch called the players from both sides and gave them a hard training.

"Have you forgotten what I said at the beginning?" Madam Hooch sprayed directly, spitting on everyone's faces, "Since you can't participate in the competition fairly and honestly, then let me go offstage. Hold on, I'll give you an hour for your respective alternates to take your place in this game."

"What's the matter?" Albert frowned as the players on both sides were severely trained by Mrs. Hooch, because the game did not continue, and both teams returned to their respective lounges. Side also did not know what happened.

However, everyone quickly got the latest information.

"We just got the latest news that all the players were sentenced to the game due to the bad behavior of the two teams in the game, which seriously violated the rules of the Quidditch game." The commentator was surprised to read the information he had just received, " God, to be honest, it's the first time I've heard of all teams being sent off. There's an hour between the two sides, and a new batch of players will be picked to take their place and continue the game."

"Go, go to the locker room." Fredra, who was wet, walked George and Albert towards the locker room, his face full of excitement that could not be concealed, "It's time for us to play!"

Before leaving, Albert glanced at the Slytherin Seeker. The unfortunate one was helped into the locker room, and Snape, who followed behind them, looked extremely gloomy.

"What the hell are you doing?"

As soon as Albert and the others stepped into the locker room, they heard Professor McGonagall's shout, and the dean glanced angrily at the players present.

"Sorry professor, but you can also see that it was the Slytherin team who started the game first. They don't seem to plan to play fair and honest with us." As the Quidditch captain, Charlie immediately stood up and was scolded for everyone, very tough. He held Professor McGonagall's angry eyes: "So, I have to take other methods to ensure the safety of our players. Don't worry, I have already made arrangements, and the victory of this game will definitely belong to us."

Professor McGonagall was also stunned, and then heard Charlie say: "Look, our alternate player has arrived."

"It seems that you are going to let a few of us play?" Fred winked at Charlie and said, "The one just now was really good. I saw Marcus being helped away. ."

Professor McGonagall immediately stared at Fred, who immediately shut up.

"Kyle, you are the goalkeeper temporarily, taking over from Wood's position. Only you have experience as a goalkeeper here." Charlie said to the freckled teenager. He is the team's Chaser substitute, but now There is no better way.

"You two take over the batter, Albert is the Seeker, and Angelina, isn't that girl here?" Charlie didn't see Angelina, so he said to Danny, "Go get that girl. ,and also……"

Gryffindor can also quickly form a complete substitute team. Although it is far inferior to the regular players, everyone has experience of playing together, and I believe it will not be worse than the patchwork players on the Slytherin side.

"Come on Albert, you are our secret ace, don't let me down." Charlie reached out and patted Albert on the shoulder, "Whether we can win the game, it's up to you, be sure to catch Kim Snitch."

Albert's mouth twitched, he knew that Charlie's statement that he was a secret ace was just an encouraging remark, but he didn't care too much.

However, Professor McGonagall next to him frowned slightly, looking at the few freshmen who replaced the players, a little puzzled about Charlie's arrangement.

"They are alternate players. Originally they will participate in the selection of regular players next year and take over the positions of regular players who have left. Don't worry, they have also undergone good training." Charlie seemed to have guessed what Professor McGonagall wanted to say, and quickly explained. road.

"Well, now that you have decided!" Professor McGonagall looked at the other people and said, "I don't expect you to perform well, but at least don't cause me any trouble."
