Chapter 870: All-Star, Inner Ghost
It only took half of the freshman selection competition to conclude the selection of the three colleges.
At Hogwarts, it is not every year that people graduate and retire, and most of the time, there are several House team members in the same year - and it is only when they leave Hogwarts that there is a draft year.
Normally, unless the difference in strength is particularly obvious, or there is a serious internal conflict, the replacement of players will be considered.
With the "Moonshine Team" promoted to the second year, almost all the new recruits for this year were locked in advance, except for a few senior students who planned to fight, Hannah and others had almost no competitors in the selection - even Ron, who was not selected for the starting lineup, was given special treatment, and Wood allowed him to train with the team as a backup goalkeeper for Gryffindor.
The only fly in the ointment may be that Hufflepuff has recruited another Seeker in addition to Hannah this year.
Zachares Smith, who failed to make the freshman team last year, still passed the assessment of new captain Cedric Diggory as in the original book and became a member of the Hufflepuff House team.
After successfully joining the Hufflepuff team, Zacharis also glanced demonstratively towards Gryffindor.
The news of Elena joining Gryffindor House this semester has long been rumored throughout the school, although in terms of her "attributes", she can indeed join any Quidditch house team, but there are still a few complaints in the Hufflepuff team - if the two chaser positions vacated this semester are Elena and Hannah, then Hufflepuff can directly lock up the championship.
It's just that Elena didn't pay attention to the provocations of some little guys at this time.
"Well, Mr. Weasley, do you have any questions?"
Elena looked to her side with a confused face, Charlie Weasley had a list in his hand, which he had just received from Professor McGonagall, and it was obvious that the older cat lady had betrayed the actual list writer Elena.
"Oh, look, it's just amazing!"
Charlie Weasley said "happily", waving the parchment in his hand.
"You know, I never dreamed I could play on the same team as Steven Gerrard. β
"Then now you can get your wish, we have combined the performance and achievements of your seniors during their time at the school, and specially selected the most representative wizards from among the returning graduates to form a Hogwarts All-Star Team. β
Elena replied calmly, politely looking at the Slytherin wizard standing behind Charlie and nodding.
"All-stars?" Charlie pouted, "It's not like picking potions materials in a pharmacyβ"
He unfolded the crumpled parchment, glanced at it, and said with an unhappy expression.
"Look, what a strange combination, two Seekers, one Gryffindor and one Slytherin. There is one chaser in each house except Gryffindor, and the goalkeeper is still a Ravenclaw girl who does her own thing......"
"But your opponent is also a mixed house, and besides, you can't steal people from the Gryffindor team......"
Elena spread her hands helplessly, and said with a sincere face, "It's just a coaching game, the main purpose is to verify that the freshman team is eligible to participate - if you really don't want to be captain, you can hand over the command to Mr. Gerald, I believe as the one who led Slytherin to two consecutive championships......"
"yes, I think so, it doesn't really make much sense for a Seeker to be captain. β
Gerald Howard shrugged his shoulders and said malicefully.
"Without the protection of the system, or after being targeted by a targeted layout, the resource skew on the Seeker can instantly become meaningless, resulting in a situation where the team is at an absolute disadvantage in the head-on Quaffle race. β
As the Slytherin star chaser who single-handedly ended a three-game winning streak at Gryffindor, much of what made him so restrained was largely due to the metal nameplate hidden in his pocket.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a small task of earning points, he wouldn't have teamed up with Gryffindor.
However, the only thing that baffled him was ......
Why is the Quidditch match in Hogwarts actually eligible for a special assignment issued by the "SCP Foundation" to D-class personnel - as one of the new members, he does not know any other members of the organization other than the Usher?
Of course, if Charlie Weasley takes the initiative to provoke or abstain, he wouldn't mind experiencing the second team boss again.
"Are you crazy?" said Charlie, "of course I'm the captain! Slytherin, don't even think about itβ"
Glancing at the old Slytherin rival behind him, Charlie did not hesitate to repeat it again.
"Hmph, don't even think about it!"
If only this one game is okay, Charlie is actually the follow-up conclusion of the game later.
According to Professor McGonagall, if the new Hogwarts team does not meet the minimum Hogwarts team standards after the coaching game, then their "All-Star Team" will take the place of the new students and participate in the main game.
On the other hand, if the freshmen perform well, it doesn't mean that they won't have any games to play after that.
Just like the new format that was reformed last year, the "All-Stars" will be the fifth team to join the process of the points competition after that, but they will not be able to win the cup for themselves, and after winning the championship, they will receive extra points to their respective colleges.
Needless to say, under such rules, he clearly benefited the most as a Seeker and captain.
"Well, if you don't have any other problems on your side," Elena said with a smile, her gaze glancing over the Ravenclaw spectator stands in the distance, "perhaps...... You should be ready to warm up, get your emotions pumped up, and you're ready to play?"
If nothing else, Hermione's side is pretty much ready now.
Anyway, the ghosts on the side of the "All-Star Team" have been arranged in advance, two Ravenclaws, two Slytherins, and more than half of the seven people in a team are "SCP Foundation" in the past six months, and they have developed a talent pool - although they don't know each other now, the scripts they received in this episode are similar.
The mission is simple: to use your abilities as much as possible without the help of your teammates, what counter Bludger, starfish upside down, sloth rolling, double 8 ring fly, trancivani feints...... The cooler, the more personal heroism, the better.
All in all, it must reflect the academic barriers that are old and dead.
After all, without these senior students as a reference, how could she convince Dumbledore and show her importance in building the warm Hogwarts family and breaking down the barriers between the house?
