Retirement from Hogwarts

"Of course." Just after the reporter asked the question, Huang Xudong, the official spokesperson of the Quidditch Association who often appeared in news on various websites, also walked onto the stage and took the microphone from Natasha. . "In order to cope with the new situation of Quidditch competition, we have also made certain changes to the rules and venues of the game from the Quidditch World Cup."

After he finished speaking, he snapped his fingers, and the screen behind him and the surrounding augmented reality system also changed.Two venues of different sizes appeared on his left and right sides.

"This is the former competition venue." Huang Xudong pointed to the small Quidditch pitch on his left, which was only one-seventh of the size of a large venue.Then he pointed to the larger one. "And this is the new Quidditch pitch."

"In addition to the area of ​​this new venue being more than seven times that of the old venue, we have also added complex weather and surprise systems to make the game more exciting. For example~" He raised his voice in a long tone. to everyone's taste.

While he was whetting everyone's appetite, the entire new stadium also enlarged, covering the top of the entire venue. Everyone in the venue happened to be on the lawn of the stadium.Then, two miniature teams of players suddenly appeared above their heads.We started playing ball back and forth.

"Storm." As Huang Xudong's voice fell, a dark cloud began to gather quickly above everyone's heads.Then strong winds and heavy rain began to sweep across the venue.Everyone was caught off guard and began to protect their equipment.Then they discovered that the raindrops that fell on them and made them feel extremely wet were just some extremely real magic projections.

"Thunder." At this moment, Huang Xudong was like the gods who mastered the rules and said the rules. He casually summoned a dazzling thunder and flew towards the players playing below.Several unlucky ones who couldn't escape fell into the crowd below after being hit.

Seeing this scene, the reporters began to hide involuntarily holding their own equipment.But when they saw the fallen guys turning into balls of data and disappearing, they remembered that they were not actually at the real competition site.

Huang Xudong looked at the reporters below who were being fooled by him and couldn't help but secretly chuckle in his heart. These guys who tried every means to dig out big news from him all day long did not expect that today would happen.After the panicked reporters finally did it again, he spoke again: "Of course, in addition to the new venue, we also brought new rules."

When Huang Xudong talked about the rules, the players and the venue turned into streams of light and formed three groups of words covered in mosaics surrounding him.

"The first and most important change is that the time for all Quidditch matches in the future will be unified to two hours and three 10 minutes." Huang Xudong pointed to the first group on the left with the removed mosaic text.

"Second, given that the current Golden Snitch's score of 150 points is too high, the players leading most teams have lost their offensiveness and aggressiveness, turning the game into a personal show for the Seeker. In the future, the Snitch's score will It will be adjusted to 60 points, and the game will not end after being caught." Huang Xudong continued without waiting for the reporters to ask questions, not caring at all how much sensation his previous words caused among the reporters.

"Thirdly, Bludgers will be ejected from the game in the future.

Quidditch world," Huang Xudong said and stopped here, looking at the reporters below who were dumbfounded by his statement that was no less than expelling two batsmen. "The replacements will be those at different levels. Various levels of flying monsters are thrown into the game.The batters' work objects will also switch from those two boring balls to flying monsters scurrying around. "

After Huang Xudong finished speaking, he disappeared from the stage. However, although he did not answer any questions from reporters about this rule change, reporters were still keenly aware that after this change, the Quidditch game would definitely be better. will be more popular and more influential than before.

The only ones who are unlucky in this version change are probably the batsmen. They originally only needed to be strong enough, but now they have to face the need for magical strength. It is estimated that many of them will be demoted by the team to play in lower leagues. .But this also explains the inexplicable moves of those teams to recruit players with powerful magical abilities this summer.Apparently they had already gotten the news.

Just when the reporters in the audience were gradually recovering from today's series of big news and wanted to ask questions about the rule changes of today's Quidditch game and the new products of Dimension Group, they discovered that there was already someone on the main stage of the venue. The building was already empty.There was only a big goodbye floating on the big screen behind the rostrum.

"Isn't this the one?" After watching the press conference, Neville looked at the locked box on the table that had expired and locked itself, and asked Harry in a trembling voice, if it is really that thing. There is no doubt that what Harry is holding in his hand is a piece of vibranium of the same size.

"Probably not?" Harry's voice was unusually trembling. If this was really a white knight, this gift would be too heavy. "How about you open it and take a look?"

"No, you better do it." Neville shook his head after hearing Harry's words. "Since Jack gave it to you, you should dismantle it."

"Okay then." After hearing Neville's words, Harry no longer hesitated. After lowering the box, he opened the buckle on the side and lifted the top cover of the box.Then, as Neville gasped, a pair of flying feet that were exactly like the pair of white knights that Jack had just shown on the stage appeared in front of him.

"This is simply a work of art." Harry said with admiration as he looked at the two white flying bodies that covered the entire body below the waist.

"This seems different from the one Jack used before?" Neville pointed to the bendable knees of the white knight in front of him, the front knee pads that obviously have air intake function, and the small nozzles on both sides below it, and he was a little unsure. said. "This looks like it will be very maneuverable?"

"Of course." Harry nodded affirmatively after hearing Neville's words. "The main reason given by the Quidditch Association for rejecting the flying feet was that although it was very fast, the sensitivity of the standard flying feet was far inferior to that of the broomsticks, which would make the game less enjoyable. But this time Jack came up with this It actually beats the strongest Nimbus series in terms of sensitivity, which is enough to explain a lot of problems."

Neville, a layman, obviously didn't understand what the Nimbus series of rulers that Harry took out represented. He asked Harry awkwardly: "Then how agile is he?"

"I can't explain this clearly." Harry shook his head helplessly after hearing Neville's layman's question. "How about you find a spacious place and I can demonstrate it to you."
