Chapter 57: A Special Kind of Magic
The race is finally on track.
The batsman, the pursuer and the goalkeeper each worked hard, so the two people who were idle and idle in such a hot situation were extremely conspicuous.
Eugene pinched his chin and looked at Qi Yu, not knowing what he was thinking.
Qi Yu stood on the broom, looking at the clouds in the sky, and the whole person wandered out of the sky. After a while, as if he had suddenly woken up, he scratched and touched in his pocket, and took out a small black notebook and looked at it.
"What are these two Seekers doing?"
"I don't know, this is still a small book, is this a secret weapon? I remember that it wasn't that Quidditch couldn't use magic items, except for broomsticks. ”
"Maybe it's a tactic!"
"That's right, it's tactical! The two Seekers don't move each other, allowing the other players to score more points before ending the match. Don't forget that the competition is based on points. ”
"Pull it down! Do you think the Golden Snitch is your old hen and can catch it if you want? ”
"It's just that it's all too common to be tired and half-dead on a broom and not be able to touch the golden snitch."
There was a lot of talk in the audience, but except for the two "idle" Seekers, the confrontation between the other players was still quite exciting, and it quickly attracted their attention.
In the stands, there was a burst of cheers, cheering for every score and every save.
Eugene stared at Qi Yu for a while, but he really couldn't see anything famous, and glanced at the two batsmen.
However, the two batsmen were also playing, and they didn't notice Eugene's eyes, and they still persistently chased the Bludger and pumped wildly. This embarrassed Eugene, who finally started to move, chasing after the Golden Snitch.
When flying, he deliberately passed next to his team's batsmen and whispered, "Do it!" ”
"Good!"
The two batsmen immediately moved, forcing the St. Ylan's batsmen back and pumping a Bludger with a stick and hitting it towards Qi Yu.
At that time, Qi Yu was still staring at the small notebook in his hand, muttering something in his mouth, and seemed to have no notice at all that he was flying towards him.
"Merlin, be careful!" The St. Ylan's batsman, who was forced back, shouted.
As batsmen, their job is to protect their teammates from the Wanderers. And in the next second, the most important Seeker seems to be injured by the Bludger.
How does this make them not worried?
There was also an exclamation from the audience, not a surprise or a cheer. In the game, the Seeker has always been "taken care of", and what deliberately hit the Bludger at the opponent is a trivial matter, and there are all kinds of "reasonable collisions".
You know, Seekers don't just fly fast. It is also necessary to have skillful skills and even a strong physique.
In the eyes of everyone's surprise, worry, and expectation, Qi Yu stretched out a hand, and grabbed it casually, and the black Bludger was caught in the palm of his hand.
Putting away the small notebook, Qi Yu glanced at the field, locked on Eugene, who was flying in the air chasing the golden snitch, and threw the Bludger over.
Suddenly, the entire stadium resounded with cheers that were enough to lift the sky, and the Bludger was grabbed with one hand, which was simply unexpected, and all the spectators were boiling.
In everyone's memory, only the top Seekers in the professional league could have done so with their speed and power. And they also used a trick to unload the Bludger's power and make it turn and fly to the other side.
And this boy with the eastern face, Merlin Kane, stood on top of a magic broomstick, grabbed the Bludger without even looking, and threw it out.
It's as if he wasn't catching a Bludger, but a Quaffle.
Eugene was chasing the Golden Snitch and was getting a lot closer, only a few feet away, when he heard the boiling cheers from the audience, and then felt a gust of wind behind him.
With a lot of competition experience, he naturally felt threatened, and immediately manipulated the magic broom to descend. Bludger flew almost against his scalp, causing Eugene to break out in a cold sweat.
Although he escaped the Bludger, the Golden Snitch also took advantage of this opportunity to escape, and once again became an unattainable being.
"Help me!"
Eugene didn't know what was going on, so he shouted angrily and flew towards Qi Yu, with a Bludger chasing him behind him.
Killing the opposing Seeker is the most important thing for every team to do besides scoring.
The two batsmen from the El Academy who had watched Qi Yu's "one-handed catch" performance did not dare to slack off, and rushed to Qi Yu, hoping to solve this tricky opponent, and it was best to let him leave the game.
"Don't worry about me."
Qi Yu waved his hand and said to the group of friends, "You just need to score well." ”
In this way, Qi Yu almost held Eugene back for three full ten minutes, and he was always able to dodge at the critical moment when they almost bumped into or Bludger was about to hit it.
Several times he was deliberately drawn by the batsman, and the Bludger brushed against the tip of his nose.
"No, we can't go on like this!"
Exhausted and panting, the three of them stopped Qi Yu's pursuit with gloomy faces.
It is true that the strength of the Quidditch team of St. Ylang College is weaker, but it is not weak to be beaten more with less. In the absence of the two batsmen, St. Ylang not only caught up with the score behind, but also overtook it.
The score is now 80-50, with St. Ylan's College leading by 80 points over Ayr College, which has 50 points.
"Aren't you chasing?" Seeing that Eugene and the others had given up on themselves, Qi Yu leaned over instead.
Eugene glanced at Qi Yu with an extremely gloomy face.
Controlling a magic broom is not like driving a car, it requires mana. Even if it doesn't consume mana, hitting the spirit for a long time is quite a matter of consuming spirit, and after chasing it, Eugene is afraid that he will not have enough strength and magic power to chase the golden snitch.
The three of them no longer paid attention to Qi Yu, a slippery Seeker, and concentrated on their own work.
However, when Eugene finally determined the direction of the Golden Snitch again and flew towards the Golden Snitch, a shadow suddenly appeared above his head.
Qi Yu didn't know when he had already taken the lead in flying above him, flying towards the golden snitch at a speed beyond his reach, and grabbed the golden snitch that was hovering in the air and was just about to fly away.
230 points to 50 points!
The game is over!
St Ylan-Ylang College ended the game by a big score.
And among them, the biggest credit is naturally the new Seeker of St. Ylang Academy, the kid with the face of the East - Merlin Kane.
If it weren't for the match against Holy Karaca on the third day, these excited players couldn't help but want to have a celebratory dinner.
Of course, these people did not include Qi Yu.
Quidditch or something, too pediatric for him. It's like having an adult play football with a kindergarten child. As a mature adult, this kind of bullying of children -- well, it actually seems quite interesting and emotional.
Of course, this does not include "joy after winning". Therefore, Qi Yu looked extremely calm, still bowing his head and writing and drawing on his small notebook.
A lot of magic has been added to the small book, and Qi Yu directly wrote those complicated and lengthy magic spells on it. Anyway, he couldn't memorize the spells completely anytime soon—however, Qi Yu found that he didn't seem to need to memorize them.
For example, the magic of "all petrification" recorded above, Qi Yu slows down the speed of the flow of magic power, and can still use it according to the spell on the small book. It's just that the casting speed is a little slower.
"Why don't you memorize it in the future?"
When it comes to magic spells, Qi Yu has always been very hard-working.
"Merlin, do you remember the rules I said?" Bolton looked at Qi Yu, who was absent-minded, and said weakly.
After today's game, he naturally had to hurry over and give Qi Yu the rules of the Quidditch game.
"Too much to remember." Qi Yu said confidently.
"I don't think I'm remembering it at all." Bolton pressed his eyebrows, and he had a headache.
Qi Yu smiled: "You found out, but it doesn't make much difference whether I remember those rules or not." ”
"Well, forget it, you can play as much as you like." Burton almost burst into tears again.
yes, at the level of manipulation of magic brooms, those rules are simply clouds to him. If it weren't for the point system of the game, I am afraid that the time of each game would not even need a second, because Qi Yu had already caught the golden snitch.
"By the way, why is the magic of the Magic Realm a little strange?" Qi Yu suddenly asked, the magic of the magic realm was very different from the elemental magic such as wind blades and icicles in his impression.
"You say this?"
Bolton, who had originally stood up, sat down again, "Actually, the elemental magic you mentioned is not itself a product of earth magic, and those magic come from other dimensions. ”
"Oh?" Qi Yu listened with interest.
In fact, from the emergence of the magic kingdom to the present, there are naturally not only those existing magics, but also many ancient and otherworldly magics.
Unlike the current practical magic, these spells are called "research" magic, and are only used as a theoretical research reference, because no one can use them.
According to scholars who specialize in these magics, it is because of the wand. Today's magicians are useless without wands, unlike magicians in other planes who can perform magic without a wand.
And the magic patterns in the wand are only enough to withstand the magic that can be used in existence, and those elemental magic and even very exaggerated forbidden spells are currently only in zài theory and research. At least on Earth, even the three legendary mages can't use them - they're also wand-wielding magicians.
