Chapter 44 The power is unknown, but when it is strong, it is strong!
On Wednesday afternoon, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw had their first flying lessons.
The flight lesson took place on a lawn not far from the castle, and when the Ravenclaw students arrived, they found that the Hufflepuff students had already arrived.
The badgers had come so early for the first time, and they were more active than Professor Sprout's herb class, but the Ravenclaw students were lazily uninterested.
The Quidditch team in their own academy counts down year after year, and it is normal that they do not develop a team culture and do not arouse interest.
The most important thing is that every time the captain of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team fights loudly, the eaglets are also very emotional, waiting to kick Gryffindor and punch Slytherin......
The atmosphere is all set here, but there is no actual action, and the record is stable in the top four every year, which will only make people more and more disappointed.
It wasn't just the Ravenclaw students who were disappointed, but the badgers were also disappointed when they saw the row of broomsticks in the distance.
They did fantasize that the school might be equipped with the Luminous Wheel 2000, which was the latest broomstick this year.
Even if it is not worthy of such a luxurious broom, it is not bad to sweep the seven stars, and the products launched by the sweep broom company are mainly cost-effective.
Although the configuration of the sweep series has not been lost, the experience has not been won, and occasionally there will be problems with braking, but it is similar to the smooth wheel 2000 in terms of parameters!
No matter how bad it is, let's use a large version of the light wheel 1700 and sweep the five stars.
Chilling a little more, the Comet 290 is also a classic, barely enough.
But they never expected that Hogwarts would use a broomstick from the Meteor series.
In Transfiguration class not long ago, you just heard Professor McGonagall introduce this old antique:
A broomstick introduced in 1955 and from the time it was released, it was the cheapest competition broom on the market!
Decades have passed, and when I take it to split the char and burn the fire, I don't like the smoke of wood.
The most important thing is that Cosmic Broom Co., Ltd., which produces "Meteor" brooms, went bankrupt as early as 1978, and even maintenance personnel could not be found, let alone replace some old parts.
Is Hogwarts poor like this now?
Or is this the essence of the old magic school, which is completely different from the school style of those nouveau riche, and everything has to be "half-used"?
It's not half-old, it's really an old antique from the garbage heap.
Mrs. Hooch strode over, her short gray hair and her eyes yellow, like the eyes of an eagle.
Seeing that the students were muttering, she also seemed a little embarrassed and said, "The new broom will come soon, this month...... Ahem, let's start this semester. ”
This is very much like the promise of those schools: air conditioning will be installed next year!
It's a pity that next year after next year, when you graduate, you may really pretend.
"Okay, there's nothing wrong with meteors, it's slower, but it's safe." Mrs. Huo Qi said loudly, "Hurry, hurry up, stand next to the flying broomsticks, if you move quickly, you may be able to fly twenty meters away today." ”
“……”
The little wizards all found a broomstick and stood aside, with Shirley and Neville on either side of Rove.
"Stretch out your right hand and place it on top of the broomstick." Mrs. Hodge shouted, "Then shout 'Rise up!' ’”
Shouting "get up" doesn't make much sense, it's just a sense of ritual, just like when you buy a watermelon, you have to take a picture first.
Rove's arm rests above the broomstick, and thanks to the magic of the Tree Protector Cauldron, he has a special affinity for plants, even if it is already wood made into a broomstick.
He didn't say anything at all, and the broom jumped on his hand without the slightest hesitation.
Mrs. Hooch glanced at Rove in surprise.
Shouts rang out from the lawn.
Shirley's broom slowly lifted into the air, eventually landing on her hand.
Neville's broom seemed to be broken, and it didn't move at all when it was on the ground.
Hannah's broom, however, jumped up with agility, and slammed it on the head of the pigtailed girl, her eyes were demented, she reached out and touched her red and swollen forehead, and suddenly squatted on the ground, hugged her head and cried.
McMillan, who claimed to have been born on a broomstick, was half-dead and shook on the ground like a loach, and when he stepped down, the wood broke in two.
“……”
In the midst of this repeated call, it doesn't matter if they were summoned or picked up secretly, all the students have brooms in their hands anyway.
Mrs. Hodge explained to them the construction of the broomstick and the position of riding it, and each student rode on it.
The earliest broomsticks did not have invisible cushions, and when they played Quidditch, they belonged to the Morgan era.
Elio Smailson solved this problem well with the invention of the Cushion Charm, so all brooms have invisible cushions on them, which are quite comfortable to sit on.
Of course, because the broom is so old, many of the cushions are broken, which is a bit slippery.
Mrs. Hodge walked up and down the line, correcting the students' grips.
"All right, as soon as I whistle, you kick your legs off the ground and kick hard." Madame Hodge said loudly: "Hold the broom steady, rise a few meters away, and then lean forward slightly and fall vertically back to the ground."
All of them, listen to me whistle......"
But Neville was so nervous that he didn't wait for the whistle to blow, he shook his calf and flew up.
Neville spun wildly in the sky like a cork spewing out of a bottle.
The students in the castle couldn't help but watch by the window when they heard the screams.
Madame Hooch showed the uneven quality of the teachers at Hogwarts, and she simply stood on the ground and shouted, "Come back, boy!" Come back!! ”
Rove suddenly felt that there was another place on Hermione's complaint letter.
Looking at Neville, who was still spinning in the sky, Chief Rove sighed, although Neville had been trying to be admitted to the school hospital recently, he couldn't really watch him go in.
But the broomstick in his hand started too slowly, and if he flew to Neville's side at this speed, he would have already fallen, and he had to give some acceleration!
Rove took a few seeds out of his pocket and threw them on the ground, and the seeds quickly took root and sprouted, growing several elastic vines that were wound in the shape of a giant bow.
Rove used the vine as a bow and the flying broom as an arrow, and the young man was silent, controlling the vine and drawing the bow like a full moon.
The broomstick is like an arrow, shooting into the air, whistling into the wind!
The next moment, Rove was also entangled in vines and flung towards the sky, and like an arrow shot out of a strong bow, he instantly came to the broomstick's side, maintaining a relatively static speed with it.
The broomstick lowered slightly, and Rove rested his feet on the wooden pole, the vines wrapping around him and the broomstick, keeping his balance.
A man and a broom rushed towards Neville with great momentum.
The boy stood on a flying broomstick, the wind blowing, his sleeves fluttering, and the hunting sound, as if flying with a sword.
Neville couldn't hold on, he let go of his hand, and was thrown off by the broomstick, slamming his body against the castle wall and falling to the ground.
Neville moved away from Rove's flying direction, and the boy had to twist his waist, and the whole person bent around, controlling the broomstick to turn a large arc in mid-air, and leap towards Neville.
In the nick of time, Rove finally arrived, grabbed Neville's ankles, spun him around, and slowly fell to the ground!
"Look...... Look ......"
Professor Flitwick, who was giving lessons to Gryffindor and Slytherin, shouted, "That's what I call waist and abdominal strength...... I was so good back then! ”
After capturing Neville, Rove slowly landed on a broomstick, and upon landing on the second floor, he saw a tabby cat standing by the window with shocked pupils.
Rove flew over and smiled, "Good afternoon, Professor McGonagall, where are you basking in the sun?" ”
Professor McGonagall came back to her senses and noticed that Rove was approaching, and she hurriedly jumped down and hurriedly turned back into a witch.
Rove was speechless, he wasn't a cat idiot.
Professor McGonagall looked strange as she recalled the exciting scene just now, and she suddenly remembered what the captain had said to her when she joined the Gryffindor Quidditch team:
Mid-rear drive, no one is worthy.
The power is unknown, but when it is strong, it is strong!
