Hogwarts: Harley from The Witch Way - Chapter 410

c394 Slytherin Great Library Quidditch Matches Limited

After Halloween comes November, and the weather quickly turns unseasonably cold.

The sky turned a light blue-gray, and the mountains surrounding Hogwarts were once again covered with thick snow.

Every morning when I wake up, there is a layer of hard frost outside the windows.

Even if there are magic windows and walls to block it, just looking at the window can make people feel the biting chill from the bottom of their hearts.

So the quilt fairy that had been wiped out revived again. The cold wind howling outside seemed to be able to cut open hands and cheeks, so what were you doing outside?

Everyone felt that the dormitory was quite nice, and maybe one day they would have to get up, but it was best not now.

But when another thing happens, even the cold winter and the scary quilt goblins can’t stop the enthusiasm of the little wizards, that is, the school Quidditch match is about to start.

Umbridge’s Halloween shows are a thing of the past, now talking about Quidditch is the new trend in school!

Considering that in the past two years, the Quidditch teams of the four colleges have graduated a number of main players and replaced them with many new players.

In addition, Hogwarts held the Six Wizards Tournament last year, so there was no Quidditch match.

Therefore, the little wizards were particularly enthusiastic about this long-lost game. With only two weeks left before the game, everyone began to discuss frantically about which team had the hope of winning the championship this year.

Of course, needless to say, Gryffindor received the most votes, and even many Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws were optimistic about the Gryffindor team.

After all, Gryffindor only changed one goalkeeper this year, and they also have the top chaser Harley.

Although this goalkeeper Ron is very good, he lacks confidence at first glance. It makes people feel that if he misses a ball, it will have a chain reaction and collapse directly.

But that doesn’t stop Gryffindor from being too aggressive! Leaving aside others, Harley has proven this truth countless times on the court:

If the opponent can’t defend three against one, he really doesn’t know how to play!

As usual, the first game is Gryffindor vs. Slytherin.

I don’t know if these two teams play the first game every year. Don’t the professors find it boring?

Harley had always felt that if she were arranging a match, she would choose to play a double round-robin and arrange the two academies into the last match.

At this time, a whole season has been played, and the players on both sides are completely hot.

Coupled with the traditional grudges between Gryffindor and Slytherin, as well as the victory and defeat in the first round and the anger caused by various students stepping on their faces afterwards, that game was really good to watch.

Unfortunately, Harley is not the principal yet and does not have the authority to arrange the schedule, so she cannot make such adjustments.

But she had already made a plan. Wouldn’t it be a pleasure to come back and inherit the position of principal of Hogwarts when she reaches her old age? At that time, every school in Nottingham University will be at your mercy.

Time flies and the day of the competition arrives. The day before the competition there was still snow all over the sky, but today luckily it turned out to be clear skies.

The players of the Gryffindor Quidditch team came to the auditorium early, and everyone seemed to be in a good mood.

After all, after Harley joined the team, they have won three consecutive championships and established a dynasty.

So what if Wood, the old captain and best goalkeeper, leaves the team? As long as Gryffindor’s sharpest spear is still there, everyone will still have the confidence to win the championship.

Now that the opportunity to win the quadruple crown is right in front of me, I have to consider whether this is the only opportunity I have in this life! It is our duty to create the glory of Gryffindor!

The only one in the entire team who seemed to be in a bad mood was probably Ron.

During this period, in addition to the team’s normal training, Fred and George also gave Ron special training.

However, Harry seriously suspected that the two of them had some personal feelings mixed in during the special training, and the attack was a bit too harsh, which destroyed Ron’s self-confidence.

Now Ron’s face was pale, his eyes were dull, and the hand holding the sandwich was shaking constantly, looking like he was suffering from pre-exam syndrome.

Sometimes he would say out of nowhere:

“I’m so stupid, really, I know I’m useless, I’m useless, I can’t play at all, why should I join the team?”

The Weasley twins sat next to him, arms around each other, comforting their younger brother. Ginny was also trying to persuade Ron across the table, but it seemed to be of no avail.

“He looks like he’s trying to drown himself in a bowl of cereal with milk,” Hermione couldn’t help but complain.

Harry shrugged. It seemed that the defense of Gryffindor’s goal was hopeless today.

“After all, we have to give the newcomers a chance. We can’t expect the newcomers to just carry everyone, right?”

“Same.” Hermione sighed.

As a little lion with a strong sense of honor in the academy, she hopes to see four consecutive championships even more than the members of the Gryffindor team.

At the other end of the hall, the Slytherin Quidditch team also appeared. I don’t know what happened over there, but it was very noisy.

Almost everyone wore a crown-shaped badge of the same color in addition to the silver and green scarves and hats.

“What are those green snakes doing?” Ginny suddenly sat over and asked Harry and Hermione.

Judging from the angry expression on her face, Ginny probably no longer expected to comfort Ron.

“It’s not a nice thing to say anyway.” After Harry saw the badge clearly, he couldn’t help but shook his head.

“If I’m not wrong, Ron’s mentality will probably collapse in today’s game.”

…………

The players were finally setting off to the Quidditch field, with cheers from the students ringing around them.

They walked through the foyer, up the stone steps, and into the biting winter air.

The grass on the Quidditch pitch has been covered with a layer of frost, which makes a crisp sound when stepped on.

When the players changed into their uniforms and walked onto the field, the surroundings were already filled with students.

Especially enthusiastic cheers rang out again. There had been no game for a year and a half. Everyone had been looking forward to this Quidditch match for a long time.

Li’s familiar and unique voice sounded:

“Hello everyone, long time no see. Welcome back to our long-awaited Quidditch match.”

“I’m your old friend Lee Jordan, and this will be my last year commentating on the House Quidditch Cup. I hope I can continue to give you a good experience.”

“We can see that all fourteen players on the scene are already in place, the captains of both sides have shaken hands, and the game has begun!”

Following Ms. Huo Qi’s whistle, fifteen broomsticks rose into the sky at the same time.

Harley rolled to avoid a Bludger and grabbed the Quaffle fired by Ms. Hooch.

“We can see that Harley got the Quaffle first and then made a single cut.”

“What a classic start. She is indeed the sharpest bayonet in the Triple Crown dynasty established by the Gryffindor team! There is no doubt about her scoring ability!”

“Both Monte and Pusey wanted to intercept and rushed forward one after another, but Harley swung the broom to avoid it!”

“She also lowered her head to avoid the Bludger hit by Crabbe! Can goalkeeper Blake stop it? No, he didn’t stop it! The ball went in!”

The Quaffle accurately passed through Blake’s defense and sank into the circle. The score on the scoreboard became 10 to 0.

It all happened so fast that most of the audience didn’t react.

“We can see that despite not playing golf for almost two years, Harley still maintains a super high touch.”

Lee’s voice roared, “Blige serves, Warrington holds the ball, they charge!”

“But Angelina made a great steal! What a great girl, but it’s a pity she doesn’t want to date me.”

There was a burst of boos in the audience, and Fred pointed his middle finger at Li bitterly.

If Professor McGonagall hadn’t been watching from Lee’s side, Fred would have been ready to ask his good friend to try the Bludger.

As the game progressed, the score quickly opened up, and Harley once again showed everyone what speed and passion are.

The Quaffle was almost intercepted by Gryffindor chasers before it even got past half-way, and when it reached the final distance, it was basically Harry who broke in alone.

A team always needs someone to take the sacrifice position, and with Harley as a powerful scorer, the other two chasers don’t mind playing support all the time.

Unfortunately, Ron successfully proved to everyone that he was a weakling in the competition. The Quaffle had only two chances to pass half time, but Ron put the ball in both times.

Especially for his second mistake, Warrington rushed straight towards the goal on the left, but Ron flew towards the goal on the right.

This made Harley, who was trying to contain the opponent’s batsmen, stunned. She thought that the opponent didn’t make any confusing moves, just simply scored a straight ball? How could this not be stopped?

“…The score has reached 70 to 20. Gryffindor serves and Aria holds the ball.”

Li suddenly paused and listened intently, “Wait, what is singing in the audience?”

Waves of loud songs rose from the silver-green ocean occupied by the Slytherins:

“That silly little Weasley, he can’t block a ball, the Slytherins sing loudly, Weasley is our king…”

“Despicable extra-game move, trying to interfere with the Gryffindor players!” After hearing clearly what the other party was singing, Li roared directly,

“Only trash would use such shady tactics. They are simply dirty cowards…”

Li wanted to continue spitting out the fragrance, but was stopped by Professor McGonagall.

Although Professor McGonagall was shaking with anger, the Slytherins’ actions did not violate school rules, so the impartial Professor McGonagall would not stop them.

Ron turned pale when he heard the song and missed another ball.

Harry sighed. If Ron couldn’t adjust on his own, his Quidditch career would be over.

“Harry!” After receiving Angelina’s pass, Harley was just about to attack when she heard Fred shouting towards her from a distance,

“Do me a favor, we want to take a look at the Slytherin library!”

Harley made an OK gesture and activated the Firebolt instantly.

The Firebolt was instantly driven to its maximum speed, and Harley seemed to turn into a golden-red flame in mid-air.

“Harry has the ball, but obviously the previous goals gave the Slytherin team a lot of confidence.”

“We can see that the Bludger played by Crabbe blocked the support of Arya and Angelina, while Goyle seemed to be preparing to play the game without thinking and directly hit the Weasley twins. Fred and George were forced to take cover.”

“I would say that such a pure gorilla should not participate in Quidditch…”

The bias in Li’s voice became increasingly obvious, but his behavior on the field was indeed very bad.

With the blessing of singing outside the court, Crabbe and Gower waved their sticks to forcefully isolate several other players, then drove their brooms fiercely and turned towards Harley.

The Gryffindor players struggled to catch up, but the Slytherins were all equipped with Nimbus 2001, which was much faster than the broomsticks of other Gryffindors.

Harry himself had already fallen into the enemy formation, and the seven Slytherins were vaguely encircling him.

“Steal right away! Let’s go together!” the new captain Meng Tai commanded loudly, and he, Warrington and Pu Sai took the lead and ran into each other.

Stealing is just a superficial term. What the Slytherins really mean is to knock Harry down directly.

You are a thin, weak and boneless little girl, how can we not hit you?

Professor Snape’s eyes in the stands suddenly turned cold and his face was expressionless.

He suddenly remembered that he didn’t play a game last year, and there was a new captain this year, so the naive team members probably forgot about the principle of prohibiting the use of illegal methods against Harley.

It seems that the special cauldrons in his basement that were used to boil medicinal dragon dung have been cleaned.

It was thrilling to watch off the field, but Harley on the field really didn’t feel anything.

The opponent’s formation seems airtight, but in fact it is full of loopholes.

Considering Fred’s request to help their brother Ron vent his anger, Harley deliberately stopped and raised her fingers provocatively.

Seeing this scene, Slytherin’s three chasers, who were as strong as bulls, suddenly became furious, and the brooms under their bodies became a little faster.

Seeing them getting closer and closer, Harry suddenly smiled and patted the broom.

The broom “turned off” and Harry fell straight to the ground.

This operation is really unpredictable. After all, from the perspective of Slytherin players, even if they want to land vertically, they must first adjust their broomsticks.

The distance between the two parties was already too close, and this little time was not enough for Harley.

But who would have thought that Harley would do this?

The three of them had no time to brake and collided directly, causing a tragic accident in the air.

Pu Sai, the smallest one, was directly hit and flew out. His Nimbus 2001 also broke off and fell straight to the ground.

The remaining two people were not much better. Their foreheads were in close contact and blood flowed from the knock.

But it wasn’t over yet. Crabbe and Goyle were chasing after the Gryffindor players, waving their bats and approaching from above.

When Harley disappeared, the two people’s limited brain computing space was all focused on the question “where did the target go?” and ignored the captain and teammates diagonally below.

So there were two more people in the Slytherin crowd in the sky.

Harley looked at the scene above, and even though she was still falling downwards, she still whistled leisurely.

And right below her was Malfoy.

According to the pre-game plan, Malfoy’s task was to pursue and intercept from below.

But for some reason, his mind was filled with what his father had said to him since the game started.

Therefore, Malfoy’s movements were half a beat slower and he failed to catch up with the impact in the air.

“Master Draco, please lend me your broom.”

When Harry and Malfoy were about to come into contact, Malfoy suddenly heard this teasing voice.

Using the cover of her body, Harry gently hooked her toes on the handle of Malfoy’s broom. With a slight exertion, Harry, who was falling downwards, and Malfoy, who was sprinting upwards, changed their positions.

Malfoy plunged straight into the ground, and Harry used this force to restart the broom and rush towards Slytherin’s goal.

Seeing four of his six teammates hugging each other in the air, and the other two deliberately touching the grass with their faces, Blake was stunned.

When the Quaffle flew past his ear, he just stretched out his hand symbolically and felt the air flow caused by the Quaffle passing through the frame.

Violent cheers erupted from three directions on the field. Only the noisy singing from Slytherin suddenly stopped and there was silence.

Slytherin Library – Quidditch Limited Edition, you deserve to experience it!

George couldn’t help but whistle and wink at Li.

Li smiled knowingly and joked loudly:

“What a wonderful breakthrough! By the way, none of the seven defenders were able to defend. Do you know how to play?”
