Harry Potter Raven's Claw
Chapter 73 Quidditch School Team Selection
Justice, fairness, friendship first, competition second...
These beautiful qualities that people attribute to sports are actually just people's fantasies. Real sports events are full of all kinds of filth under the glamorous appearance.
Quidditch, such a money-burning sport, was destined to always be associated with power and dubo from the day it became popular. In the original book, Malfoy became the team's seeker by sponsoring the team's latest broomstick.
Behavior is actually just routine practice in the Quidditch industry.
As for what happened to the original Seeker of the Slytherin school team, no one cared. Even if Draco was a Quidditch idiot, the Slytherin Quidditch team had the advantage of leading in equipment.
The strength will also be much higher than before. From this point of view, it is okay to sacrifice the seekers in the original team.
Mike was also an old man who had been struggling in society for many years. He nodded imperceptibly to Roger and followed him and continued walking forward.
Originally, the reason Mike didn't want to join the Quidditch school team was because he was worried that long training would take up time to learn magic, but now he doesn't have to worry.
Since Professor Flitwick came in through the back door, it shouldn't be a problem to miss training "occasionally". After all, those with power can really do whatever they want.
A large number of Ravenclaw students have already gathered in the Ravenclaw selection area, and these people are here to participate in the selection of substitutes for the Ravenclaw school team.
That's right, substitute selection.
The youngest starting players in Ravenclaw are all third-year students. New second-year players have to sit on the bench for at least a year after joining the team before they have a chance to become a starter. They become a starting member as soon as they join the team.
People are either extremely talented, or like Mike and Draco, they have opened the back door.
"Okay, our people are finally here. Then this year's Ravenclaw school team selection is about to begin." Roger clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, "Let me tell you the rules first.
It's very simple. Have you seen those magic circles in the sky? All you have to do is ride a broomstick and pass through those magic circles in sequence. Got it? You can choose to use your own broomstick. If you don't have a broomstick, come to me to get the test.
Dedicated Sweeping Seven Stars."
Most of the young wizards who came for the test did not have their own broomsticks. Except for some Muggle-born wizards who did not have enough gold galleons, many mixed-blood or even pure-blood young wizards also did not have their own broomsticks.
After all, the price of a brand new broomstick ranges from hundreds to thousands, which is not something ordinary wizard families can afford.
Of course, you can also choose to buy second-hand broomsticks, but there is no quality guarantee for these second-hand broomsticks. It is certain that their performance and safety will decline after long-term use. The reason why Hogwarts still uses those old-fashioned broomsticks
Flying broomsticks owe a lot to the daily maintenance of these brooms by Mrs. Hodge, the master of broomsticks.
Mike did not go up to receive the test broom like others, but took out his own Nimbus 2001 from the Traceless Stretch Spell pocket.
The latest model of Nimbus 2001 immediately attracted the attention of all the little wizards around. Everyone exclaimed and crowded towards Mike, wanting to see Nimbus 2001 more clearly.
Mike noticed that even Roger's eyes flashed with envy. The Nimbus 2001, the same broomstick used by the England national team this year, costs 1,800 gold galleons, which is far from what Roger can afford.
"Okay! Okay! Everyone disperse!" Roger still fulfilled his duty as the captain and dispersed more and more little wizards. "Mike, you should be the first one to go up. I believe everyone
Can’t wait to see how fast Nimbus 2001 is.”
Mike did not refuse, and sat on Nimbus 2001 as soon as he lifted his legs. The selection of the Quidditch school team was actually not difficult. The magic circles in the sky were very large, and the distances between them were also very far. Basically, as long as one could skillfully control flying
Anyone with a broom can pass the test.
This is not surprising, after all, this selection is actually just a selection of substitute players.
As soon as he sat on the Nimbus 2001, Mike felt the difference between it and those old broomsticks in flying lessons. Not only did it have a magic seat, but Mike also felt that there were many invisible magic threads gently binding his body.
.No wonder it dares to sell for 1800 gold Galleons, the comfort and safety are completely unmatched by the Sweep series.
Putting on the goggles, with a thought in his mind, Nimbus 2001 flew into the sky with Mike at an extremely fast speed.
During the summer vacation, Mike had long been familiar with the operation of Nimbus 2001, so these simple tests were naturally not a problem for Mike. He passed through one ring after another at an extremely fast speed, and the arc of the turn was much better than those on other venues.
The number of people riding the Sweep series brooms is much smaller, which fully proves the excellent speed and flexibility of the Nimbus 2001.
When Mike completed the test and landed, all the little wizards on the field burst into warm applause, and some little witches even screamed and wanted to come up to hug Mike. Fortunately, there were too many people at the scene and they couldn't squeeze in.
"It took 50 seconds! All 17 magic rings were hit! It's amazing!" Roger was holding a magic stopwatch in his hand and couldn't help himself. The last sentence was so amazing that I didn't know whether he was talking about Mike or the light.
Round 2001.
The second person to participate in the test was Franklin. Originally, he had to queue up slowly to receive the test broom, but Roger, probably for Mike's sake, gave him a Sweeping Seven Star with a wave of his hand.
Mike could have lent him his Nimbus 2001, but Franklin refused after hesitating for a moment. The reason was that if he made this move, other people would definitely come to borrow Nimbus 2001 from Mike, and then Mike would refuse.
If you do, it will definitely arouse the resentment of others.
After Mike's performance, Franklin's test seemed unremarkable. He took off slowly and turned so much that it almost formed a circle. When he landed, only Roger applauded him.
The strange thing is that Roger was so excited that he didn't even know that his hand was red. Franklin hugged him as soon as he got off the broomstick.
"That's great! That's great! It took 3 minutes to hit all 17 magic circles! You set a record!"
Franklin looked at Mike not far away with a puzzled look. He really couldn't understand why Roger was so excited when he was flying so slowly.
Roger didn't explain anything, he just patted Mike and Franklin on the shoulders and asked them to leave first. The results of the selection will not be announced today.
The confused Franklin had no choice but to follow Mike and leave the Quidditch pitch.
It was only after a long time that Franklin understood the reason why Roger was so excited. Although he flew very slowly and took a full 3 minutes to complete the test that Mike only took 50 seconds to complete, he created the Sweeping Seven Stars test.
The fastest record in test history.
