Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 31-The Battle Between Badgers and Snakes

Quidditch's game is getting closer, and although the little badgers of the Hufflepuff team are still working hard, they still appear nervous before the game.This is a huge change from Hufflepuff's previous mentality-this time they are really thinking about how to win.

One afternoon, the weather was not bad.

The bright sunshine shone on the earth, making everyone feel the warm breath.The enchanted lawn was as neat as it was measured by roots, rippling layers upon the breeze.

On the top of each viewing seat tower is a colored flag.Red and gold are Gryffindor, silver and green are intertwined with Slytherin, and Ravenclaw is blue and bronze. Only Hufflepuff's flag is inconspicuous black and yellow.To be honest, it looks a bit unruly.

When Maca flew out of the team's entrance aisle with the light wheel 2000 and waved his hands around the court, the whole game was boiling!

Probably because the Hufflepuff team’s secrecy measures are so good!The vast majority of students did not expect that there was a new member in their team, and they were still a freshman!

In Hogwarts, Maca's reputation is still good.His outstanding performance and low-key attitude have won him the favor of many students.Therefore, the cheers at this time are particularly warm!

"We got this exciting news before the game! With the approval of the principal, Professor Dumbledore, Maca McLean was selected and formally joined the Hufflepuff Academy team. He has become our Hogwarts for a century. , The youngest Quidditch player!"

"Everyone cheer for Maca McLean—"

The two commentators announced loudly in excited tones, and the atmosphere in the venue became more enthusiastic.

"Okay, let's take their respective positions!" Team Darren waved his hands, "David, Mark, hold the bat steady. According to the tactics, everyone relax!"

The three chasers, including Maca, stopped in the center of the field. The Slytherin on the opposite side also flew over. Three players, everyone hovering in the air around Mrs. Hooch on the ground, waiting for the game to start. Fight for the ghost fly ball the first time.

Madam Hooch stretched out her foot and kicked the ball box, and as the lid opened, all three balls except the Ghost Fei Ball lifted off in sequence.

"The wandering ball has lifted off, followed by the Golden Snitch! Remember, the Golden Snitch is worth 150 points. If the seeker catches it, the game is over!" The commentator enthusiastically started the official commentary of the game.

"Prepare! Guifei Ball is in the sky, the game begins!"

Maca stared at Madam Hooch and threw the ghost fly ball to the highest point, and then he moved!

The light wheel series is worthy of being a flying broom known for its excellent performance. Under the control of Maca, its speed is extremely fast.It was almost a straight-line speed-up time, he took the lead in taking the Guifei ball!

But Maca didn't hold the ball for too long at all. While leaning forward at a high speed, the Guifei ball was gently thrown underneath him, and the short-haired girl Christine received it!

When the two Slytherin chasers just chased Maca, who had slowed down, they found that there was no ball in Maca's arms.

"be cheated!"

The Slytherin players were furious. They just wanted to turn back, but Maca rushed to the sky before them.

A wandering ball was hit by a Slytherin batter, and it was passed by Maca beautifully.

"here!"

Charles, the only one who can compete close to the tall Slytherin players, has broken through the opponent's batsman's defense and came to Slytherin's left goal ring.

Christine, who was still dashing forward at a low altitude, threw it up with enough effort.

"Oh-she didn't get the ball in place!" the commentator shouted.

Yes, Christine threw the ghost fly ball to a place where no one was.

"No, that's not right, that's McLean! McLean dived from high altitude. McLean avoided two walks in a row! McLean caught the ghost fly ball! McLean pitched!"

"——Slytherin's goalkeeper is still on the left, is he in time? He is too late! The goal is scored! Hufflepuff 10 points!"

The Guifei ball rubbed the fingers of the opponent's goalkeeper and flew into the center ring. This series of cooperation made the scene boil again.

"Gosh! Check out everyone! Check out everyone! McLean is the youngest member of the academy in a century! A century!"

Slytherin took the ball next, and their chaser looked quite strong.I saw that they cooperated with each other, forcibly squeezing Charles out to interfere, trying to score straight.

Maca quickly flew to the two positions in front of them and glanced at the batter David.

David immediately understood it and flew high in the air, hitting a roaming ball towards Maca with one shot.Maca dodged, and the wandering ball that was hit just landed on the face of the Slytherin player.

"boom!"

Maca stretched out his hand, and the ghost flying ball that dropped from the opponent's hand fell accurately into his hand.

I saw him leaning forward again, almost the same as last time.Slytherin's chaser was a little confused, but they still sent someone to chase him in accordance with the basic tactics.

But the attention of others had to be distracted by Hufflepuff's first tactics.

Slytherin's reaction was within Maca's expectation. He turned twice in a row to maximize the flexibility of the Halo 2000. Slytherin's chaser was thrown away by his fake move five times. Body position.

"Oh! McLean is in front of the goal again! This time it's the left knocker. Is he going to pitch?"

Naturally, Maca will not just throw the ball so easily, because the probability of being saved by the opponent's goalkeeper is too high.

He suddenly rolled over when the Slytherin goalkeeper was on guard, and the goalkeeper immediately moved towards the center gate.But Maca suddenly hovered, making a throw, actually intending to throw the ball to the left again.

"—Is it the left door? Is it the left door? Oh—no!"

The goalkeeper leaned over and rushed to the left goal, but Maca threw the ghost ball backhand to Christine who had just arrived in front of the center goal.

"Goal scored again-Hufflepuff 20 points!"

In the next game, Maca almost dominated the entire arena.

He lured the opposing batter to attack him, and created another chance for Christine; he dodges the interference of the opposing two chasers on him, so that Charles and Christine’s cooperation is perfectly successful; he uses dazzling The flying technique caused the opponent's goalkeeper to hit the goal post with one head; he even used Charles's size to cover, so that the opponent's players almost couldn't find him!

The score has been rising, and the enthusiasm of the audience has reached the highest peak of this Quidditch Cup as of this game!

"Golden Snitch!"

Hufflepuff's seeker Charlotte discovered it first.

Maca was moving fast while observing the movement of the audience.He found that the opponent's Seeker was flying to Charlotte, which was the Seeker's follow-up tactic.

When the seeker has not found the Golden Snitch himself, but the opponent has already discovered it, it is obviously better to follow the opponent closely than to find it blindly.This is one of the basic tactics for seekers, the simplest but also the best.

The current score is one hundred to thirty. Although the Quidditch Cup is based on the total points system like the World Cup, winning or losing in a single game does not determine everything, but 150 points are of value that cannot be ignored.

Moreover, Hufflepuff has lost one game so far, and Maca still wants to use these 150 points to recover points!

Charlotte's flying skills are still good, even in Maca's view.But Slytherin's Seeker is a despicable guy who behaves rather dirty.

I saw the other side disturbing Charlotte back and forth, and even forcibly ramming the end of her broomstick, trying to make her fall.The other players chased each other as much as possible to prevent the opponent from having an influence on the seekers on their side.

"Humph!" Maca snorted coldly, and rushed straight over there.

Except for the Seeker, it is a foul for other players to touch the Golden Snitch.But even if he doesn't touch the Golden Snitch, is he really helpless?

Maca once again easily shook off the chaser who followed him, spotted the position of the Golden Snitch, and then directly pointed her shoulder at Charlotte's back.

"Oh!" Charlotte was so hit by him that she almost lost her breath.

But the facts proved that Maca's top was so precise that Charlotte's right hand stretched out and caught the golden snitch flying ahead.

"She caught the Golden Snitch! Charlotte Witt caught the Golden Snitch! She succeeded! The game is over, 250 points to 30 points, the game is over! Hufflepuff won!"

With a whistle, amidst the excitement of the commentator, Mrs. Hooch waved that the game was over!

Maca flew around the field, thanking everyone for their support.He saw that Dumbledore smiled and the big white beard was shaking with it, and it seemed that he really liked Quidditch.

"Good job, Maca!" Team Darren patted Maca on the shoulder excitedly.

He missed three goals this time, and Slytherin had only four shots in total.To put it bluntly, this is really a soy sauce player in the game.

But everyone doesn't care about this. He has seen Darren's hard work during training. There are always one or two things that people are not good at!As a captain, Darren is very effective in motivating the players and summarizing the tactics, and this is also the most important ability of the captain.

After summing up the gains and losses in the game with everyone, Maca left the locker room.

Outside, many Hufflepuff's classmates crowded at the door, and occasionally some Gryffindor and Ravenclaw students were mixed in the crowd.As for the four colleges of Hogwarts, apart from Slytherin, the other colleges are relatively friendly to each other.

Looking at the lively scene in front of him, Maca suddenly felt that it was time to go to Ravenclaw to take a look.It is said that there are some unique collections in the Ravenclaw Tower, which are distributed on every bookshelf in the tower.
