Marvel's Hogwarts Wizards

Chapter 80 The game that ends the fastest in history

There are seven players in a Quidditch game, three Chasers, two Batters, a Keeper, and a Seeker.

Three of the Chasers are responsible for scrambling for the Quaffle and throwing it into the opponent's hoop to score a goal, scoring ten points.

The two hitters are responsible for knocking the aggressive Bludgers into the air, escorting their own players, or better yet, hitting the opposing player if the technique allows.

The goalkeeper guards the goal, preventing opposing players from throwing the Quaffle into one of their three scoring hoops.

And the most important thing is the Seeker, he is responsible for catching the Golden Snitch. After catching the Golden Snitch, the game is over, and at the same time, he will get a full 150 points.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, whichever team's Seeker catches the Snitch first basically wins.

After all, unless the strength of the team members on one's side is much worse than that of the other side, it is impossible to have such a big gap of one hundred and fifty.

However, the Snitch is not so easy to catch. In history, there have even been tragic situations where the game was held for several days because the Seekers on both sides could not catch the Snitch.

Slater Lin has been able to suppress Gryffindor before, because Gryffindor's Seeker is not as strong as his Seeker, and every time his Seeker catches the Snitch first.

In fact, in the previous games, before Slater's Seeker caught the Snitch, Gryffindor's score was ahead of Slytherin's, but the gap was not as big as one hundred and fifty.

You know, Gryffindor's pursuers and hitters are very strong, especially the captain of the Gryffindor team who just graduated last year - the most powerful chaser Charlie Weasley.

It is said that Charlie Weasley was invited by the British Quidditch team when he graduated, but he refused.

If Jerry can't play normally, causing the opposite Seeker to catch the Snitch first, then this game against the Gryffindor team will be in danger.

The seven-year record of defeating those reckless Gryffindors was about to end at the hands of his current captain.

That's why Marcus is more nervous than Jerry himself right now.

"Now, let's invite two teams to enter!"

The Quidditch match commentator, Lee Jordan, a Gryffindor third-year wizard, announced loudly at this time with the Amplifying Charm.

As his voice fell, the cheering shouts of the little wizards came from outside like a tsunami.

"Okay, time is up, good luck to everyone!"

Marcus stepped on his broomstick and flew out first, followed by Jerry on the Nimbus 2000, and the five team members behind.

On the playing field, the Gryffindor team wearing bright red Quidditch robes and the Slytherin team wearing dark green robes quickly flew out from both ends of the entire Quidditch pitch.

Then he waved his hands coquettishly in the sky, and then slowly landed on both sides of Ms. Hooch who was already standing in the center of the arena.

The atmosphere at the scene reached a climax immediately.

"Gryffindor!"

"Slytherin!"

The shouts became more and more one after another.

But obviously, the voice of cheering for Gryffindor is far louder than the voice of cheering for Slytherin.

No way, in terms of popularity, the brave and enthusiastic Gryffindor is more attractive than the arrogant and contemptuous Slytherin.

So in addition to their respective houses, the cheers of Wen Klaw and Hufflepuff were mostly given to Gryffindor.

But when they looked carefully at the players on both sides of the field, they found something was wrong.

That is, the Seeker of the Slytherin team is not Terrence Higgs who has not changed for four years, but a new face, a little wizard who obviously looks like a first or second year .

"That's - Jerry! How did he become Slater's Seeker?"

At this moment in the Slytherin stands, Daphne and all the Slater wizards let out an exclamation at the same time.

On the other side of the Gryffindor stand, Hermione, Harry and Ron, who were familiar with Jerry, also let out similar exclamations.

"Jerry, it turned out to be Jerry, Hermione, did you know that Jerry became a first-year Seeker?"

"I don't know, but it's impossible. He reads in the library with me every weekend, and has never been to the Quidditch pitch for training!"

Hearing Harry and Ron's inquiry, Hermione shook her head in disbelief.

"Oh, Merlin's beard, we found out that Slytherin has actually changed their Seeker. They boldly used a new Seeker. Can anyone tell me the name of this new Seeker?"

At this time, the voice of the commentator Lee Jordan came again from the tower stand.

"What, his name is Jerry Carmen, is that the Jerry who saved Professor Quirrell from the troll? But, if I remember correctly, he should be a freshman.

Slytherin's bold use of first-year freshmen, is it a bold and arrogant move, or is there some special reason, let us wait and see! "

Under Lee Jordan's explanation, all the little wizards knew that this new Seeker was the Slytherin freshman who saved Professor Quirrell from the troll on Halloween a week ago.

They had only heard of Jerry's name before, but not all of them had seen Jerry. Now the whole of Hogwarts, including the wizards in Hogsmeade, knew him.

However, at this time, most people are not very optimistic about replacing Terrence Higgs, who has five years of experience, and using a freshman as the most important seeker.

Especially the senior wizards of Slytherin, most of them frowned.

On the field, Wood of the Gryffindor team whispered to the players with some excitement:

"Play hard for a while, we will win this game!"

"Listen, I want everyone to play the game fairly and honestly."

With a silver whistle in one hand and a broom in the other, Ms. Hooch glanced at both teams, especially Slytherin captain Marcus.

Because this guy often fouled because of his strength and size in previous games.

After finishing speaking, she picked up the silver whistle and blew fiercely,

Immediately, all the players of the two teams rose into the sky.

"The Quaffle was immediately picked up by Angelina Johnson of Gryffindor - what a Chaser that girl is, and she's pretty good looking -"

The voice of Lee Jordan's commentary sounded again.

"The Snitch was released, Merlin, it was so fast, it disappeared in a blink of an eye, oh, our Slytherin is looking for the ball, did he find the Snitch,

Oh, Merlin's underpants, what did I see, I must be dazzled, how could that be, Jerry, Slytherin's new Seeker, he caught catch... caught the Snitch!

It has been less than a minute since the Golden Snitch was released. This is probably the fastest game in Quidditch history! "
