Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 71: quidditch training
"The three biggest wishes of them are to form their own circus, and then go on a tour around the world." Mark smiled and introduced Mario, Danny and Jack to Albert and the others. Why were they called Reasons to do an acrobatic trio.
"This is a very good ideal." Albert looked at the three of them curiously, then raised his hand towards them and made a tossing motion.
"It's easy, look!" Mario got a few **** with cloth strips from nowhere, and he tossed them as he walked. The **** moved up and down like swimming fish to form a circle. Muggle tosses are more pleasing to the eye.
"It's amazing." Several people stopped to watch Mario's performance and couldn't help applauding.
"I said enough of you guys." Charlie yelled at them, "Go to the court first."
Mario sneered at Charlie, threw all the **** into the sky, and then opened the pockets of his robe, letting all the **** fall into his pockets.
This move, once again ushered in a round of applause for him.
Under Charlie's stern urging, everyone trotted into the Quidditch pitch. They first went to the locker room next to the pitch and put on the protective gear they would use in the game. The training that Charlie arranged for Albert was to fly, to get used to flying on a broom.
After all, Albert had just been introduced to brooms and needed to be familiar with flying in the sky with a broom.
Most pure-blood wizards are introduced to broomsticks when they are young. George and Fred are the best examples. They both fly well on their brooms.
In fact, not only Albert, all newcomers need to learn to fly, first get used to flying, and train the reaction speed of flying on a broom.
Albert looked at the broom that was given to him. It was worn and old, and some of the tail branches were poking in random directions. Obviously, it had not been properly maintained.
He stepped up on the broom and waited for Charlie's command.
"We fly around the field and lift off!"
Charlie leads the team and begins to fly around the field.
After Albert took off, he found that his broom was a bit like an old bicycle. It flew very slowly and was not very controllable.
However, Charlie didn't fly fast or slow, so he had no problem keeping up with the team, the only one behind was Lee Jordan. After all, he has been in contact with brooms a few times. He is a complete rookie. Although his level of riding a broom is considered to be very good among rookies, the problem is that Albert is making comparisons!
There is no harm without contrast!
This makes Lee Jordan even less able to keep up with the team's flying rhythm.
"Flying well."
After flying five laps around the court and finishing the warm-up, everyone else did not hesitate to praise themselves. You must know that Albert is only a freshman in the first year. If he can keep up with their pace, it shows that his flight has a certain degree of success. foundation.
Moreover, everyone has noticed that Albert flies very steadily and turns dexterously. It really doesn't look like he hasn't ridden a broom a few times.
After this flight in circles, it is not difficult for everyone to understand why Charlie is optimistic about Albert.
After flying around the court, the regular players will start training, and the new players need to continue to train their flying ability. However, this time the difficulty has increased slightly, and the two Bludgers will be released from the box by Charlie. The task of the Weasley twins is to hold a bat and stay beside Albert's team, while flying with the team, while preventing the Bludgers from attacking Albert and others.
Of course, this is actually a simple training for the batsmen, whose task is to guard their teammates with the bat in their hands.
Of course, after the Bludger is released, everyone has to be vigilant to avoid being hit by the Bludger. The pressure suddenly increases a lot, but as a qualified Quidditch player, it is necessary to adapt to these pressures. a process.
Fortunately, the Bludgers didn't come to them too often, and both George and Fred were able to hit the incoming Bludgers well.
"What's the matter with you?"
Halfway through the flight, Lee Jordan suddenly descended, and Albert, who took the lead in flying in circles, also noticed it. He lowered his body and quickly landed next to Lee Jordan.
"It's nothing, I suddenly found that I couldn't keep up with everyone's progress, and I decided to give up." Li Jordan saw clearly that Fred and George had been in contact with brooms very early, and they flew better than most people. , Albert was in touch with the broom at the same time as himself, but it is not without reason that this guy can be called a genius by Charlie, and he has mastered flying very proficiently in just a few times. Angelina flies not as well as the three of them, but she flies very well, and she herself is practicing hard.
What about yourself?
Lee Jordan doesn't think he's flying badly, but he knows he can't keep up with the four. He didn't forget Albert's words, a dormitory can't be full of Quidditch players... that would be hated.
"I'm going to quit." Lee Jordan said.
"Actually!" Albert reached out and patted Lee Jordan on the shoulder and said, "I never expected myself to be an official player. Do you know why I am staying here?"
"Why?" Li Jordan asked stupidly.
"Because the game requires everyone to play together, it's interesting." Albert raised his head and smiled at the three people who descended behind him~IndoMTL.com~ It was like training with them, and I actually I also like the feeling of flying, which has nothing to do with whether I participate in Quidditch matches. "
"You should also like this feeling." Albert smiled at Li Jordan and said, "Okay, let's continue!"
"Does it feel like flying?" Lee Jordan murmured. It was undeniable that Albert was right. He really liked the feeling of flying on a broom, which was one of the charms of Quidditch.
The flight practice is still going on. Albert doesn't know how long he has been flying. Anyway, when he flew about the fifteenth lap, he started to let himself go.
Try to make the broom fly faster and challenge yourself to some more difficult moves.
Unfortunately, once this broken broom flies too fast, it starts shaking, as if it could be dismembered at any moment.
"It seems... broken?" Albert found that even if he slowed down, the old broom was still shaking. Did he break it by himself?
He didn't hesitate, and hurriedly landed on the ground. If the broom broke, it wouldn't be fun to fall from it, and he hadn't learned the shock-absorbing spell yet.
"What's the matter?" George asked in confusion.
"My broom is shaking, it feels like it's going to break." Albert said helplessly.
"Maybe the broom is too old. My broom shudders when it flies too high." Fred looked at George helplessly.
"Mine will be slightly to the left." George also said about the broom.
"I won't fly for now." Albert said, "I'm going to see that first."
He pointed to the Quidditch Origins book in the locker room. It was borrowed by Charlie for a few people to read. In Charlie's words, as a Quidditch lover, how could Haven't read this book yet?
