"Now, ladies and gentlemen, a warm welcome to the Bulgarian National Quidditch Team! Let me introduce you, Dimitrov! ”

A red-clad figure on a broomstick flew into the arena from one of the entrances below, flying so fast that he couldn't see it clearly. He won a rave ovation from supporters of the Bulgarian team.

Then the Bulgarian team members Ivanova, Zoglav, Lefski, Vokanov, Volkov appeared one after another, and the final finale was the Bulgarian team's Seeker - Viktor Krum!

"It's him, it's him!" Ron shouted, following Krum with his panoramic binoculars, and Harry quickly aimed his telescope at him as well.

Neither Harry nor Ron could have imagined that this world-class Quidditch star would only be eighteen years old, and Harry, who had his father's inherited Quidditch talent, was ashamed of this.

If Harry's parents hadn't had an accident, or if Harry had been placed in a wizarding family by Dumbledore with access to broomsticks, so that Harry could have had access to Quidditch at an early age, Harry might have been able to compete with Krum.

Unfortunately, the heavy shackles of fate caused Harry to miss the opportunity to become a top professional Quidditch player.

Then came the Irish Quidditch team, Connolly, Ryan, Troy, Marlet, Moran, Quigley, Linzi, but none of the players received more cheers than Crum's.

"And our referee today, the much-loved president of the International Quidditch Federation, who flew from Egypt all the way to Egypt - Hassan Mustafa!"

A short, lean wizard strode toward the arena in a solid gold robe that matched the color of the gymnasium. He was bald on the top of his head, but his beard was comparable to that of Uncle Vernon's. A silver whistle protrudes from under his beard, and he carries a large wooden box under one arm and his broomstick under the other.

Mustafa kicked the crate open, and four balls flew into the air, the bright red Quaffle, the two black Bludgers, and the tiny, winged golden snitch.

Musta whistled and followed the balls into the air.

"Ah, he-he-he-they're off!" Bagman screamed, "This is Marlet! Troy! Moran! Dimitrov! Pass it to Marlet again! Troy! Lefsky! Moran! ”

The world-class professional Quidditch tournament is indeed unmatched by the Quidditch school competition at Hogwarts, and it is no wonder that Wood, the best goalkeeper at Hogwarts, has only been a substitute when he first joins the professional team, and his team is not the best.

It is foreseeable that if Wood is still at the level of the varsity team and does not continue to improve, his bench may continue or even be eliminated by the team.

The players in the Quidditch World Cup were all firebolts, and the speed of the Golden Snitch in this kind of match was several notches higher than that of Harry and his varsity team.

As Harry watched the game, he couldn't help but sigh to himself, if he had waited at his current level, he might not have seen the shadow of the Golden Snitch for the whole game.

The coordination between the players trained in these conditions was even more subtle, and the paratroopers were unbelievably fast, and the chasers kept passing the Quaffle to the other players so fast that Bagman only had time to call them by name.

Even a good player like Harry has to slow down when watching the game through a panoramic telescope, and with the help of the game analysis magic set up on the telescope, he can understand the real situation of the game.

It's just that Harry slowed down, and when he watched the game, he couldn't keep up with the rhythm-

"Eagle Head Offensive Formation." Harry read the words through the magic of the telescope, and saw three Irish chasers speeding next to each other, Troy in the middle, and Marlet and Moran a little in front, all three of them closing in on the Bulgarian players. Then, the words "Pokov tactic" flashed on the camera, and Troy was seen pretending to rush up with a Quaffle, luring the Bulgarian chaser Ivano away, and then throwing the ball to Moran. Volkov, one of the Bulgarian batsmen, struck the flying Bludger with his short club and struck it towards Moran; Moran shrank down, dodged the Bludger, and threw a Quaffle, which Lefsky caught as he hovered underneath.

It's just that Harry is watching the tactics of this professional Quidditch player with relish,

"Troy scores!" Bagman roared in a loud voice, and the audience cheered and the stadium trembled, and Harry's telescope showed that the ghost balloon had been taken by Lefsky.

"Harry, if you don't have to watch at normal speed, you're going to miss out on the action." Hermione shouted loudly, and after Troy's goal, she circled the field, and Hermione jumped up and down excitedly, waving her arms non-stop.

After a few years of fermentation, it was mainly Dumbledore's influence, and Maple's idea of changing the Quidditch match was successfully implemented in the Quidditch World Cup with the help of Dumbledore's influence.

The Irish chasers are superb. They work together seamlessly, and their movements are very coordinated. And for a king like Victor Krum with a bunch of bronze pit teammates, either catch the snitch immediately when the golden snitch first comes into contact with the invincibility limit. Or just wait for the golden snitch to turn purple gold for a brief minute.

To grasp the opportunity of this minute, in addition to relying on extraordinary skills, you must also gamble your luck.

Because the changes of purple gold and golden snitch do not appear in turn, but randomly change according to probability.

For those favored by Providence, the 1 in 4 probability may be 1 in 2 or even 1, but for the African Chief who is patronized by the Broom Star, the 1 in 4 may be zero.

The Golden Snitch is based on the three levels of pale gold, gold, and purple gold, and before the last level, the speed of the Snitch doubles, and after the Purple Snitch is finished in one minute, it will immediately become a pale gold Snitch for fourteen minutes and then continue to the next probability change.

Therefore, that second of difference may be the abyss, not only can you not get the top bonus of the purple golden snitch, but also miss the one hundred and fifty points of the golden snitch, and only get one hundred points.

The birth of the fire crossbow arrow directly upgraded the Halo 2001 several notches forward, and the speed was several times higher than that of the Halo series, which also made the game more cruel.

In just ten minutes, Ireland scored three goals to make the score 30-0, and 20 minutes before the Golden Snitch was released.

In Krum's eyes, these 20 minutes may be longer than hours, and if the Irish team continues to widen the score in these 20 minutes, making the gap between them more than 100 points, then Krum can only wait for the 150 Golden Snitch in an hour, or even only the purple Snitch in two hours to have a chance to turn the tables.

It's just his pig teammates, what level should the score be pulled to in two hours, if it is a team that can't even be saved by the purple-gold snitch, then it's really a god pit teammate!

After Ireland took a 30-point lead, the game became more intense and more brutal. Bulgarian batsmen Volkov and Vokanov used their sinister strength to smash the Bludger at the Irish chasers and tried to prevent them from using some of their best shots. They were forced to disperse twice, and in the end, Ivanov finally broke through their line-up, dodging goalkeeper Ryan and scoring the first goal for Bulgaria.

"Plug your ears with your fingers!" Mr. Weasley reminded him loudly when he saw that Meiwa had started dancing in celebration.

After the previous experience of being seduced, Harry and Ron immediately closed their eyes. After more than ten seconds, they showed a little gap in their eyelids and saw that Meiwa had stopped dancing, so they opened their eyes again and continued to watch the game.

The ghost balloon was in the hands of the Bulgarian team again, but it was quickly snatched by the Irish team, and then the Bulgarian team scored five more goals under the strong attack of the Irish team.

But at this time, the audience's attention is no longer on the chaser-

The thirty-minute limit has ended, and the gap between the two teams has not yet reached a hundred points.

"Did they see the Golden Snitch?" Seeing Krum's movement, an audience member immediately shouted.

I saw two Seekers, Krum and Linzi, descending quickly among the pursuers, as if they had jumped from a height of thousands of meters without a parachute.

"They're going to fall to the ground!" Hermione beside Harry exclaimed.

She was only half right—at the last second, Victor Kruma stopped diving, rose again, and flew away in a circle. And Lin Qi fell heavily to the ground, and the thud could be heard by the entire gymnasium. There was a lamentation from the seats of the Irish audience.

"Fool!" Mr. Weasley grumbled, "Krum is faking!" ”

"The game is suspended," Mr. Bagman yelled, "and the trained field doctor rushed to the field to check on Aidan Linzi's injuries. ”

Harry hurriedly pressed the replay and match analysis buttons on the telescope, adjusted the speed dial, and reattached the telescope to his eyes.

He watched as Krum and Linzi swooped down again in slow motion. A line of glowing purple text flashed across his camera: Lonsky feints - pinning down dangerous Seekers.

He saw that when Krum stopped the dive in time and Linz fell to the ground, Krum's attention was very focused and his facial muscles tensed, so Harry understood that Krum didn't see the Golden Snitch at all, he just wanted Linz to imitate him. Harry had never seen anyone fly like that, and Krum looked as if he hadn't used a broomstick at all, he flew around the air with ease, seemingly completely unrepentant, light as a feather.

Seeing this Lansky feint, Harry looked like he was trying, but he wasn't confident at all that he could do to the level of Krum.

While Lynch was recovering, Krum was circling around Linzi's head, and he wanted Linzi to look for the Golden Snitch without any interference while Linqi was recovering his strength.

However, he unfortunately did not get the favor of fate, and after Lynch recovered and returned to the ring amid the loud cheers of his supporters in green, Krum still found no trace of the Golden Snitch.

After the game was played again, the Irish chasers quickly organized an offensive, and after 15 minutes of intense and intense action, the Irish team scored ten more goals one after another, pulling the score directly to a gap of 170 points.

It's not yet an hour, and the Golden Snitch is dead an hour later. Two hours later, if the Bulgarian team still had the same score, even if Krum caught the purple and gold snitch, the score would only be ten plus one hundred and then double two hundred, and Ireland would only need to score five more goals in the middle to win the game.

But with Bulgaria's standards, limiting Ireland's goals to just over five for the next hour or so will undoubtedly be more difficult than getting Krum to catch the Purple Snitch.

Ireland's 10-game streak after the break in the game deeply irritated the Bulgarian team, and they tried to break the technical gap by violent means, and the rest of the game began to become unscrupulous.

When Malette sprinted at the post again with a Quaffle under her arm, Bulgarian goalkeeper Zoglav flew out to meet her. It was all happening so fast that Harry didn't see it, but there was a shout of rage from the Irish crowd and a long, shrill whistle from Mustafa before he realized that he had been fouled.

"Mustafa reprimanded the Bulgarian goalkeeper for hitting people - too much elbow movement!" Bagman said to the noisy crowd, "Ah, yes, Ireland take a penalty!" ”

Just now, after Marlet was rammed by the opposing goalkeeper, the leprechauns rose into the air angrily like a swarm of shiny bumblebees, and now they quickly formed a "Ha! Ha! Ha! ". Mei Wa on the other side of the arena jumped up, angrily shook their hair, and started dancing again.

The Weasley boys and Harry all stuck their fingers in their ears, while Maple and Hermione didn't move. Maple resists with the power of magic, while Hermione, as a girl, is immune to Maybaby's magic.

I don't know which is better than the charm of the mermaid and the song of the mermaid, one is through the eyes of the person, and the other is through the ears, but the song of the mermaid is not divided between men and women, and the charm of the mermaid only works on the opposite sex. In this regard, the mermaid's singing voice seems to be superior.

Suddenly, Hermione and Maple ripped Harry and Ron's fingers off their ears.

"Look at the referee!" Hermione chuckled.

Harry and Ron looked down at the arena below, and saw that Hassan Mustafa had landed in front of the dancing girl, and he was acting very strangely. He flexes his limbs, flexes his muscles, and strokes his beard excitedly.

Harry and Ron couldn't help but laugh immediately.

"Oh, that's not going to work!" Ludo Bagman said, but listening to his tone, there was a hint of ridicule, "Someone went up and slapped the referee!" ”

And Bagman just talked, but didn't go directly to wake up the referee, and he seemed to want to watch Hassan Musta's jokes for a while.

A field doctor plugged his fingers in his ear, rushed into the field, and kicked Mustafa in the shin several times. Mustafa seemed to come to his senses. was seen by the audience as a joke, Mustafa looked particularly embarrassed, and yelled at Meiwa, who stopped dancing with a very unconvinced expression.

"Maybe I'm mistaken, Mustafa actually wants to send the Bulgarian mascot home!" Bagman's voice teased, it seems that this incident will probably be a black spot that Hassan will never be able to erase, "Oh, we haven't seen such a scene, oh, the game may become uncivilized... ”

Indeed, the Bulgarian batsmans Volkov and Vokanov landed on either side of Mustafa one by one and began to argue angrily with him and gesture to the leprechauns, who then happily formed a "Hey! Hey! Hey! ".

However, Mustafa was indifferent to the protests of the Bulgarian players. He raised a finger into the air, apparently telling them to take off again. When they refused, he whistled twice.

"Ireland made two free throws!" Bagman shouted. The Bulgarian audience roared angrily, but Bagman, who did not pay attention, ignored it, "Volkov and Vokanov had better ride on the broomstick, okay, they rode up." Troy got the Quaffle... ”

The competition has now reached a ferocious level of intensity that they have never seen before. The collision between Gryffindor and Slytherin in Quidditch at Hogwarts is completely pediatric compared to this.

The batsmen on both sides showed no mercy: Volkov and Vokanov, in particular, who didn't care whether the ball or the man was hit with their bats. Dimitrov lunged straight at Moran, who was holding the Quaffle, knocking her off the broomstick.

"Foul!" Supporters of the Irish team shouted in unison. They all stood up, forming a huge green wave.

"Foul!" Ludo Bagman's magically amplified voice also repeated two words, "Dimitrov touched Moran, deliberately flew over and charged, and will definitely be awarded a penalty." That's right, the referee blew the whistle! ”

The leprechauns all rose into the air again, and this time they formed a giant hand and made a very rude gesture towards the girl on the other side of the field. When Meiwa saw it, she immediately lost control. Instead of dancing, they flew through the arena and began throwing handfuls of flaming objects at the leprechauns.

Under the anger, Meiwa completely changed into a different appearance -

Their faces were elongated into pointy, sharp-beaked birds' heads, and a pair of long, scaly wings were emerging from their shoulders.

"See, kids," Mr. Weasley's voice drowned out the noise of the crowd below, "so you can never just look good!" ”

Wizarding officials from the ministry rushed into the arena to try to separate the baby from the leprechaun, but to little avail. At the moment, the battle below is no less than the game above.

"It's Moran again, Moran has scored!"

But a significant part of the audience was attracted by the movement below, and the farce there seemed to be more exciting than the game on the field-

The pitch was filled with the screams of the Irish supporters, the cracking of the wands of the ministry officials, and the angry roars of the Bulgarians.
