The Big Boss Behind Hogwarts

Chapter 213 The World Cup Begins

In late January, Moriarty received a package from Nimbus and a letter from Lilith.

Package contains 12 reduced Nimbus 1990S.

In the letter, Lilith explained the meaning of Nimbus 1990S.

1990 commemorates the 1990 Quidditch World Cup.

"S" is the acronym for Slytherin, in honor of Moriarty, the inventor of the new broom.

Then she lightly described the process of her negotiations with Whitehorn in a few words, and inadvertently mentioned Whitehorn's attitude.

"Whitehorn was greedy, stupid and petty.

Personal advice, you beware of him.

Especially when you are developing the next broomstick, don't let him find out, he will definitely do it - he is not a generous person, and he will not watch you subvert his Nimbus company.

Finally, Moriarty.

Good luck to you and bring the Quidditch trophy back to Hogwarts. "

Moriarty finished reading the letter and put it together with the schedule in a notebook. Lilith resolved the contract dispute brilliantly and completed the task Moriarty gave her.

In fact, Lilith guessed right, Moriarty just wanted to find a broom company to produce the Nimbus 1990S first.

The British team's use of Nimbus 1990S in the World Cup is the most important thing. As for how many Galleons they earn, it has become secondary.

Moriarty didn't say this point clearly, but Lilith thought of it, and they maintained a sufficient tacit understanding on this point.

Moriarty walked out of the room with a notebook and a 12-handle Nimbus 1990S. He knocked on the door of Roman and others, and led them to the runway.

After Moriarty made the broom bigger, he looked at his teammates, "One by one, come get your new brooms."

Roman and the others rushed to grab it noisily, like a gust of wind blowing, each with a Nimbus 1990S.

A group of big boys seemed to have found their favorite toys. Without waiting for Moriarty's reminder, they couldn't wait to get on the broom, kicked their feet on the ground, and shot out like arrows.

"Wow ah ah-"

Roman and the others obviously underestimated the speed of Nimbus 1990S, they rushed into the blue sky defenselessly, and their panicked cries were pulled far away by the wind!

The wizards from other countries on the runway looked at this scene with livid faces. They looked at the Nimbus 1990S galloping through the air, then at the Nimbus 1700 in their hands, and left angrily.

Moriarty also rode the Nimbus 1990S and rushed towards the sky!

The moment he was lifted into the air, the wizards watching felt a gust of cold wind blowing in their faces, and several female fans with their slender waists were almost blown down by the wind!

The wizards raised their heads, their gazes kept moving as Moriarty flew, and they were horrified to find that afterimages of Moriarty appeared in their eyes!

Moriarty used his loud voice on himself, and shouted at the Romans: "Clamp on to the broom, hold steady! Then increase to maximum speed, we train!"

It took a lot of effort for Roman to maintain his stability, and began training according to Moriarty's command.

At the same time, Nimbus discontinued all other brooms and produced only the Nimbus 1990S.

The British wizards were surprised to find that all the broomsticks of the Nimbus Company turned into Nimbus 1990S overnight!

The streamlined new broom immediately attracted the attention of wizards. The Nimbus 1990S has a smooth and shiny appearance, and the handle part is made of mahogany.

The twigs at the end of the broom are long, straight and neat.

The most surprising thing is that there is a small silver snake on the top of the golden handle.

That's the Slytherin mark, no doubt!

The British wizards realized that the new broom was another alchemy prop made by Moriarty, and the Nimbus company leaked the wind, saying that Nimbus 1990S would follow the British national team to appear in the World Cup.

The Nimbus Company firmly grasped the alchemy props developed by Moriarty and the broom dedicated to the British national team to make a big splash.

The wizards placed orders one after another, and the Nimbus 1990S was sold out, and the supply exceeded the demand.

Word spread that the British team had a new broom, and without exception, 15 teams held an emergency meeting to discuss what to do about Nimbus 1990S.

But at this time, the British team has completed the run-in with Nimbus 1990S, and started special training at a deeper level.

The time soon came to the first Wednesday in February, and the game between the British team and the French team began!

At 8:50 in the morning, the main stadium of High Proceedings, which can accommodate 80,000 people, was full of seats. The upper, middle and lower stands were full of fans from all over the world.

The Delacour family sat in the camp of the French fans. A little girl like a porcelain doll sat on Mrs. Delacour's lap. She had long silver-white hair and asked Delacour in a childlike voice. Wife: "Mom? Where's my sister? Where did my sister go?"

Madame Delacour glanced at the British fans on the opposite stand, and saw Fleur sitting gracefully on the stand, holding a small silver and green flag in her hand.

The beautiful Furong is the center no matter where she is, but there is a large open space around her, and no one dares to approach her.

Madame Delacour and M. Delacour exchanged a look, and they knew exactly what their daughter was thinking.

"Gabriel," Madame Delacour hugged her little daughter on her lap, and said softly, "My sister is cheering for his prince."

"Mom? Where is the prince?" Gabriel asked with blinking eyes.

"At..." Mrs. Delacour looked towards the field, and the British and French players just came out of the locker room.

They were walking on the way to the arena, Roman and Peru looked at each other in the air, their eyes were fierce, and they wanted to swallow each other alive.

However, there is a trace of calm hidden in Roman's eyes, and the Nimbus 1990S has brought him confidence.

Madame Delacour smiled, pointed to Moriarty and said, "Look, the prince is there."

Gabriel looked eagerly at the field, which looked as smooth and smooth as velvet from her commanding position.

On each side of the arena stood three pitching rings, fifty feet high, and to the right of the rings was a huge blackboard.

Gabriel remembered that there was an advertisement on the blackboard, but now it is gone, and it shows: UK: 0, France: 0.

"Nine o'clock sharp, the game will start soon." Mr. Delacour reminded his wife and daughter, his tone involuntarily excited.

As if to confirm his words, a professional commentator from the Canadian Ministry of Magic pointed to his own throat and said, "The voice is loud!"

Then his words echoed through the packed stadium like thunder. His voice echoed above their heads, resounding to every corner of the stands.

"Ladies and gentlemen... welcome! Welcome to the 421st Quidditch World Cup!

The audience burst into cheers and applause.

Thousands of flags were waved simultaneously, accompanied by the chaotic sound of the national anthem.

Fleur shook her little flag, which she had rusted stitch by stitch, with Moriarty's head and Slytherin's crest on it.

It was a pity that she couldn't let Moriarty see it. The scene was too chaotic, but it was very lively.

At this moment, the players on the field all raised their heads and looked up at the stands, feeling extremely excited, enjoying the charm of Quidditch together with the fans and audience.

The noise gradually died down, and the audience sat down to watch the game.

The narrator said: "And now, ladies and gentlemen, a warm welcome to the British national team! I present to you - Captain Moriarty Slytherin!"

Moriarty flew into the sky on the Nimbus 1990S, and the speed was too fast, causing a burst of exclamation.

He sat on the broom, lowered his head and swept across the stands, saw the British fans holding a huge national flag, and saw a piece of emerald green, which belonged to his fans, just like the permanent shining fan group.

He also saw, Fleur.

"Ah, Moriarty Slytherin! I think you are familiar with the name, but most wizards don't know that Moriarty is just thirteen years old this year!

Yes, he is the youngest captain in the history of the British team, and also participated in the World Cup for the first time! "

Following the introduction of the narrator, the audience picked up the panoramic binoculars and followed Moriarty.

"According to official information, Captain Slytherin has been serving as a Seeker at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft and Wizardry, and has achieved a good record.

But in this game, on the list of players submitted by Captain Slytherin, Roman is the Seeker. Let us welcome the veteran of the British team-Roman! "

Roman also took to the air, smiling and waving to the crowd.

The commentary continued: "Yes, Roman is the Seeker, so there is one less Chaser. I am happy to tell everyone that the Chaser is none other than Captain Slytherin!

Maybe this is his tactic? We don't know, let's welcome other players..."

The Explosive Head and the others flew into the air one by one, and came to their respective positions with firm and excited eyes.

"Now, please welcome - the French team!" The commentator said loudly: "Captain Peru! The Seeker of the French team! And..."

Seeing the players of the French team fly into the sky and return to their positions, the commentator joked: "And our referee today, who flew all the way from Iceland, referee Daya! Without him, we can't start the game, can we? .”

A portly wizard in robes of solid gold to match the stadium's color strode across the field.

He was a little bald on the top of his head, but he had a big beard, and a silver whistle stuck out from under it.

He carried a large wooden box under one arm and his broomstick under the other.

Then he got on his broomstick and kicked the box away—four balls shot into the air at once: a bright red Quaffle, two black Bludgers, and a tiny, long Snitch with wings.

With a "whoosh", the Snitch flew away without a trace, Daya blew his whistle, and followed the balls into the air.

"Ah!" The commentator shouted passionately: "They are setting off! Roman and Peru rushed towards the Snitch!"
