Chapter 45: The Coming Halloween Eve

Chapter 45 The Eve of the Coming Halloween

Harry had been training for Quidditch since a week ago. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

While flying technique is the most important skill for a Quidditch player, how to play Quidditch in flight is another story.

Not to mention the coordination between the players and some tactics, which need to be done through joint training.

Harry's training time was put after seven o'clock every night, which minimized the impact on Harry's learning.

On the first day, Captain Wood brought Harry to the pitch and told him how to play Quidditch, the rules,

And familiarize him with the several types of balls that are locked in the box.

Having spent decades playing basketball, football, table tennis, and suddenly having to learn a new style of ball sports, Harry was a little unaccustomed to it.

After all, there is only one ball in the Muggle world!

................................................................................................

There are three types of balls in a Quidditch match, for a total of four.

The biggest one is called the Ghost Flying Ball, and Harry thinks it's about the same size as a basketball, and throws it into the basket for ten points. The smaller one is called a Bludger, two of them, and it will attack and ram the nearest Quidditch player. The smallest was the Golden Snitch, about the size of a walnut, covered in gold, with a pair of long wings as thin as cicada wings. If you catch it, you will get 150 points, and at the same time, the game is over.

There are seven players on each side of the match.

A goalkeeper guarding the ring, which is equivalent to a basket, from the opponent to knock the Quaffle in.

Two batsmen, flying around in the sky, hit the lethal Bludger to the opposing player.

Three chasers, whose aim is to score points by hitting the Quaffle into the opponent's ring.

A Seeker whose mission is arguably the most important is to find the fastest Golden Snitch and grab it before the enemy Seeker does.

................................................................................................

Thankfully, Harry was the only Seeker on the team, so even if the rules were a bit wordy, Harry just had to understand them, as it didn't have much to do with his mission.

Harry's talent for flying was indeed high, and after Wood's personal demonstration, Harry soon reached a new level, and the dazzling flight he performed in the sky left Wood dumbfounded.

It also made him completely relieved of Harry.

It wasn't just him, a few days later, all the players got together to train, and Harry's strength convinced them.

They agreed that Harry was definitely capable of representing Great Britain at the World Cup, and that perhaps Harry would be crowned the youngest Seeker in history......

Harry just smiled at this, and didn't say much.

................................................................................................

As time passed, Harry's Quidditch training was getting better and better, and the first Quidditch match at Hogwarts was about to begin.

Within the school, there are a total of three Quidditch matches per term.

In the first half of the semester, the four colleges compete in pairs to determine the two winners, and in the second half of the semester, the two winning colleges compete again to determine the final winner.

......

Gryffindor's opponent was Slytherin.

However, while the Quidditch tournament was about to begin, there was a big holiday just around the corner, which made all the students happy from the bottom of their hearts.

And here it is – Halloween Eve!

................................................................................................

As one of the most lively festivals of the year, there is no need to say much about its anticipation and excitement. The 700 people gathered to celebrate Halloween, and the thought of this lively scene made their hearts burn and longed for Halloween to come in two days' time.

................................................................................................

Harry's training was going on as usual tonight, and as a Seeker, the most important thing was naturally his eyesight and speed.

So most of his training is in these two areas.

Today Wood changed his trick, when he came to the course, he carried a black school bag, opened it and saw that it was full of golf balls.

He smiled, "That's what you're training for today." ”

......

......

After Harry flew into the sky, Wood took out his wand and pointed at the golf ball, and a ball flew out at once, fast but not steep.

In this way, it will land quickly, and it will not be easy to pick it up before it hits the ground.

However, this was only for Harry a few days ago.

Now? Harry dived easily, as fast as he could, reaching for the ball.

"Is that the only one?" said Harry.

Wood looked up and shouted, "Don't worry, this is just the beginning." ”

Wood slowly increased the number of golf balls that flew at the same time, and these balls, not only flew in all directions, but they were not all white, but colorful, so it was difficult for Harry to notice their position in a short period of time.

When picking up a ball in the air, also pay attention to which ball is about to hit the ground, and which ball is similar in color to the surrounding environment, hidden in it.

It's a distraction, but not a distraction.

Wood controlled up to eight balls at a time, and when Harry picked up the last one, he grabbed a handful of grass almost the moment it hit the ground.

After practice, Wood gave Harry a thumbs up.

He knew very well how difficult this kind of training was, and he had been shocked to think that Harry would be able to pick up four balls at once, but he didn't expect Harry to do it to this extent.

......

This actually had something to do with Harry's powerful soul, which made his highly concentrated spirit persist for so long, and it was impossible to put it on others.

Hearing that the training was over, Harry's head swelled as soon as his spirit slackened, and he stood on the grass for a long time before recovering. It's mental fatigue.

................................................................................................

Luobei: As for Halloween, let me explain, there are probably quite a few people who don't understand.

Western holidays, the most famous are Halloween, Halloween Eve, Christmas Eve, Christmas.

These four festivals.

Halloween first, then Christmas.

These two festivals are attended by, celebrated, and played by people all over the country.

We say that Halloween is October 31, which is not accurate, Halloween is actually on November 1.

But the day of the real celebration was the 31 night.

October 31 is called Halloween Eve, and it is generally a night of play, which is to play jack-o-lanterns and pretend to be ghosts.

Trick-or-treating without sugar is the day.

......

Christmas is the equivalent of the New Year.

Everyone is on holiday, families are reunited, and every place has a smell of New Year's Eve.

Christmas Day falls on December 25.

Christmas Eve is December 24.

On the night of Christmas Eve, the children were looking forward to tomorrow. That's when Santa Claus delivers presents that night.

The next morning, it was Christmas, and the children began to look at the presents. Adults go around visiting relatives and friends and attending parties. It was the liveliest day.

I want to collect, I want to recommend tickets.

Thank you.
