Harry Potter’s Natural Villain

The match between Slytherin and Hufflepuff will be played in the first week after Easter. This is also the last match. After this game, the scores of each house can be counted, and this is the standard. Get the final champion.

Gryffindor is now temporarily ranked first, and the lead is also very large. Even if they lost the first game, but with the unremitting efforts of the entire team and the excellent performance of Harry's Firebolt, they successfully recovered the decline. jumped first.

Hufflepuff's lounge, filled with a faint earthy fragrance, is a round low-ceilinged room, the warm sunlight of early spring pours on the floor through the windows, and many green plants hang by the windows and the ceiling , In all fairness, Hufflepuff's common room is the most calming place.

However, even in such an environment, the students in the lounge now kept their faces solemn.

"Tomorrow is our game against the Slytherin team." The speaker was Cedric Diggory, a handsome boy with a high nose, black hair, black pupils, and a beautiful format. He is now in the fifth grade. , and serves as the Seeker of the Hufflepuff Quidditch team. This is also the core figure of a team, and his performance can often affect the outcome of the game.

Of course, their strategy is not only limited to victory, but also because of the points system, they are also likely to win the game and lose the trophy, so they pay great attention to the deployment of the strategy.

Hufflepuff's players are all nervously discussing the tactics they'll use tomorrow, because they're not just going to win, they're going to win beautifully.

"I'm a little strange." A short, chubby, dark-skinned female student suddenly said.

"What's weird?" another student asked.

"Slytherin's students don't even have provocations these days. In previous years, as long as there were competitions in their academy, they would constantly provoke their opponents." The female student said weakly.

"This is a good thing, we advocate fair competition, and the current Slytherin students may also understand that strength is the only effective way to prove themselves on the field." Cedric said.

It turns out that he was wrong, at least in such a game, strength is not the only thing, if hardware does not belong to the category of strength.

When the seven Slytherin players showed up on the field in their green jerseys on game day, the stadium was dead silent, and then the entire audience was boiling.

"Oh my god!"

"How could they do this!"

All the audience almost glared their eyes out,

They couldn't believe what they were seeing.

Each of the seven Slytherin members had a Firebolt in their hands.

Ron and Harry in the stands seemed to be under the spell of immobilization. Ron's mouth opened in surprise, and he could even swallow a toad at once.

"This, this is really unbelievable." Li screamed in the stands, tearing his hair frantically. "Seven Firebolts, did they steal a broom from a Quidditch national team?"

Then Professor McGonagall gave him a stern look, which was a warning to him to restrain his tone.

The basic conduct of a commentator should still be at least objective. Lee Jordan did not do well at this point.

"Maybe the audience at the scene didn't fully understand the Firebolt. Harry Potter of the Gryffindor team used this style of broom in the previous games, which helped their team win to a great extent." Lee Jordan swallowed and said dryly: "This is the most perfect broomstick in the wizarding world today. There is no one. In addition to the perfect selection of craftsmanship and materials, Firebolt even uses goblin craftsmanship, including pedals. , support plates and brackets that allow the athlete to keep their balance and avoid bumps even in bad weather.”

Lee Jordan paused for a while and then said, "I still don't know how they did it. It is said that the production of Firebolts is extremely low, because the goblin workers in charge of important links can easily go on strike because of a small conflict."

The audience is not all fanatical fans, but they only know one thing, that is, this broom is very powerful, Harry's Firebolt has made the Gryffindor team even more powerful, and now there are seven at the same time on the field. Well, it's pretty obvious how this game will go.

"Don't panic." Cedric remained calm. He was the Hufflepuff team's Seeker and Captain, so he had to remain calm at this time. When the backbone of the team can't keep calm, that's true. Failed to fight.

"Calm down, friends, sometimes advanced equipment doesn't mean anything, I'm not consoling you, but think about it for yourself, this is their first time using Firebolt to compete, can they adapt? It's the one that suits them. Best, we have to learn to trust the partners who have been with us for so many years, right?"

The momentum of declining morale was suddenly stopped by Cedric's words.

When the seven Firebolts appeared, even Mrs. Hooch was stunned. She didn't expect Slytherin's students to be able to do this.

But she still made up her mind. Her duty was to act as a referee, and it was their freedom to use broomsticks.

"Captains, shake hands!," said Mrs. Hooch.

Flint and Cedric approached each other, walked towards each other, held each other's hands, and the latter smiled politely at Flint, which made the insolent

Then the two went back to the front of their team respectively.

"Get on the broom!" said Mrs. Hooch. "Three-two-one-"

Fourteen brooms rose into the air, and it was obvious that the members of the Slytherin team had already started far faster than their opponents and reached the air first.

"Now the game officially begins." Lee Jordan began his commentary, "I have to say, the Firebolts did give the Slytherins a great advantage, and all their players faced the Bludgers. Obviously much easier, just a slight change of direction to accelerate, the threat from the Bludgers will disappear."

"Now the Quaffle is under the control of Slytherin's Montagu, galloping towards Hufflepuff's circular gate." Lee Jordan wiped his eyes and said: "Slytherin took the lead. Score! Montagu just swooped down in a straight line and put the Quaffle into the goal and the Hufflepuff keeper didn't even react!"

Cheers erupted from the Slytherin auditorium, and the crowd moved like rolling green waves.

"Now the only chance for the Hufflepuffs is on the Snitch. If their Seeker Cedric can catch the Snitch in time, they can still win this game!" Lee Jordan kept saying Cheers to the Hufflepuffs.

Cedric tried his best to keep himself calm. Although he didn't agree with the idea of ​​one person saving a game, it seemed that the victory or defeat of the game was likely to depend on him, except for the noise caused by the convection caused by the rapid flight. , There was a sudden piercing sound behind him. He sharply turned his broom and flew vertically upwards, avoiding this attack, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another one swam away. The ball jumped at him again, hitting his back so hard that he nearly fell off his broom.

And Pansy was around him at the moment. Whenever Cedric made a move, Pansy would follow closely to harass him.

"What tactic is this?" Lee Jordan exclaimed. "Two Slytherin batters and their Seeker against Hufflepuff Seeker Cedric at the same time!" , Lee Jordan suddenly clapped his palm fiercely and said: "I understand, he is now using his equipment advantages to play steadily, as long as he drags Cedric and relies on the excellent performance of the Firebolt, the Slytherin team can finish. Win the game with the Quaffle points earned by the Chaser!"

When the commentary came to this point, Lee Jordan's face suddenly changed dramatically, and then he said seriously: "In this case, Gryffindor becomes dangerous."

"Are we in danger?" Ron murmured to himself, and he couldn't believe what Lee Jordan said. It's obviously Slytherin and Hufflepuff in the game now, what's their business?

"I'm afraid he's not wrong," Harry said, eyes blank, a bad premonition rising in his heart.

Ron soon knew why.

The Quaffle passed relentlessly through the Hufflepuff team's goal time and time again. Their goalkeepers couldn't adapt to the lightning-fast speed of the Firebolt. It's too late.

10, 20, 30, 50, 100, the Slytherin team's score is rising, and the Hufflepuff team, which is difficult to even touch the Quaffle, can score. So far So far it's still zero.

Yes, they had special training for Harry's Firebolt before, but it was for Seekers, because Harry is a Seeker and he is a Seeker who won't be a Chaser Work, so all the exercises for reaction speed are done by Cedric, and the other Hufflepuffs don't have this kind of training.

"Cedric made another nice dive and he saw the Snitch! He was heading straight for his only hope, oh no! Two Quaffles were beaten by Slytherin's Bol and Derek respectively. It was hit, and they were rushing towards the Snitch quickly. From the speed of the ball, it could be seen that they all used their best strength. If Cedric wanted to catch the Snitch, then the back of his head might be It will all shatter!"

"It's a pity that Cedric chose to avoid these two balls."

"Jordan, if you can't continue to explain fairly and impartially, and continue to use this kind of tendency, I think you..." Professor McGonagall reminded him again from the judges seat next to him.

Although she also knew in her heart that Slytherin's victory might defeat Gryffindor.

"Okay, I'll try my best." Lee Jordan waved his hand and continued to explain.

Now the situation on the field is starting to become one-sided. The Slytherin team skillfully controls the brooms under them, and delivers sharp blows to the Hufflepuff team again and again. The rain-like offensive was scored again and again by the Quaffle.

Even Cedric is starting to feel a little numb. No matter how strong one person is, he can't do anything under the double team of three people, not to mention the opponent's own level is not low, and he still uses the best equipment today, a feeling of powerlessness. rose from his heart.

But he did not give up, instead he worked hard to lift his spirits, and continued to ride his broom toward the golden light that symbolized victory.

"Huh?" Cedric suddenly realized that the attacks and harassment of several people had suddenly stopped. He accelerated abruptly. The golden lightning was not far in front of him. Once he caught the Golden Snitch, the game was over. .

There was no harassment, which made him feel relieved, and he didn't have time to think about why, his left hand held the broom tightly to maintain the speed of forward, Cedric's right hand swiftly grabbed forward, the golden snitch's wings and his palm Connected, spun in his hand, and then slowly stopped in his hand.

But the audience didn't cheer for him. Cedric felt a little abnormal, so he suddenly turned his head to look at the scoreboard like he was just waking up from a dream, because he was focused on the game before and didn't have time to watch the scores. Now everything After the dust has settled, there is time to care about the score.

The scoreboard was five hundred to one hundred and fifty.

A feeling of astonishment rose in his heart, but it seemed to be a matter of course. He was so surrounded that he couldn't even communicate with his teammates, and now he saw that his teammates were all ashen-faced and had no fighting spirit.

Cedric finally understood why the Slytherin team suddenly let him go.

Taking a deep breath, Cedric calmed himself down. Although he lost the game, he had nothing to complain about. To be honest, he still enjoyed the feeling of challenging himself under such extremely unfavorable conditions. , he even felt that his technology had improved a lot.

He recalled the original Slytherin team's play style, relying on physical advantages and small movements, that was the real contempt, but today's game left him speechless.

All players are back on the ground.

The captains of both sides approached again and shook hands.

Flint's face was full of joy, as were the players behind them, who never thought their way to the championship would be so easy.

"It was a great game and we were convinced," Cedric said.

"Oh, oh, is that so?" Cedric's reaction surprised Flint. To be honest, he had already prepared a lot of sarcasm, and presupposed some excuses Cedric might make, such as relying on Firebolts. If you just won, etc., and then go back with a fierce mockery. But Cedric's words gave him an awkward feeling that he was doing the wrong thing.

"Sigh." Cedric sighed long, then smiled at his teammates and said, "It's going to be a holiday soon, do you think we should go to work and buy such seven brooms?"

This half-joking remark made the Hufflepuff team, who had been dead just now, amused again.

All the audience stood up spontaneously at this time, applauding for the defeated Hufflepuff, the victorious Slytherin, and Cedric's mature moves.
