0052 During the game

The venue of the Hogwarts Quidditch competition is very large, and the stands around the stadium are already crowded. Almost all of Hogwarts students, professors or other staff members come here to participate in this annual grand event.

The layout of the Quidditch are somewhat similar to that of the football field, and both players need to guard their own goals.

But unlike normal football, Quidditch's goal is three small circles that are pushed up with railings that are dozens of meters high.

The ground of the stadium has been covered with fine sand, but to be honest, this does not serve as a good protective effect.

If a human body falls directly on the ground covered with fine sand from a relatively high distance, even if it is not killed on the spot, it is likely to be seriously injured and disabled.

Therefore, once the player accidentally falls from a height of several meters or even dozens of meters during the game, he can only pray that the professors around him can use magic to protect him.

It can be said that the sport of Quidditch has a very high risk factor, and many wizards have died in the competition due to various accidents.

However, it is precisely this fast-paced and high-risk characteristic that makes the Quidditch movement particularly charming and becomes the most undisputed hottest sport in the wizarding world.

The two games held today were held in sequence. The first game was Slytherin College vs Hufflepuff College. Students from both colleges were cheering for their teams in their own areas.

Although the competition has not started yet, the entire field is already very lively, with shouts everywhere, as if these students are about to vent all the power that is usually bound in the wizard's robe.

The referee of Quidditches is Mrs. Huo Qi, who is in charge of flight class. She is about 35 years old and has extremely capable white short hair.

At this time, she stood straight in the middle of the field. Mrs. Huo Qi was also decisive when speaking and doing things, and looked a bit like a heroine.

After the players from both sides of the game arrived at the center of the field, Mrs. Huo Qi opened a rectangular wooden box with three balls of different sizes buckled with belts inside, which were the wandering balls, the ghost flying balls and the golden flying thief.

When the game begins, Mrs. Huo Qi will release these three balls.

The players on both sides need to avoid the pursuit of the roaming ball, while fighting for the ghost flying ball to send it into the ring of the opponent's position to score.

In addition, the ball seekers of both sides need to do their best to catch the Golden Snitch first.

At this time, when the audience on the field saw three balls and two teams in the center of the three games, the cheers in their mouths became even more enthusiastic.

At the same time, many viewers were surprised to find that there were three new faces in the Slytherin team, obviously all newcomers who had just joined the academy.

These three newcomers are August, Erin and Marcus Forlint, who later became the captain of the Slytherin Quidditch Academy.

It is something that has never happened in Hogwarts' history to make three new players at once. At the same time, many people recognized August, who was in the limelight in Hogwarts recently, and were even more looking forward to this game.

With Mrs. Huoqi's order, the competition between Slytherin College and Hufflepuff College officially started.

Three balls of different sizes flew quickly into the air. The players of both sides immediately began to fiercely compete for the ghost flying ball, while the players of both sides began to look for the golden flying thief who shuttled through the field at high speed.

The weather is clear today, and it is just afternoon. The sunshine on the field is a bit dazzling, which makes it more difficult for the golden thief, who is originally all over the body, to find it through vision.

The hunter on Hufflepuff's side is a fourth-grade student. He has participated in many Quidditch games and has a lot of experience in finding Golden Snitch.

When there is a lot of sunlight, he will search for the other party's traces through the reflections on the sun on the body of the golden thief. However, this method will cause a considerable load on the eyes and easily cause dizziness.

But there is no way to go.

August's magic sensing method is much more convenient. Although many wizards on the field are using flying magic to move, the magic fluctuations emitted by the golden snitch are obviously different from other wizards, which August can keenly capture.

After August firmly locked the position of the golden snitch, he immediately followed the golden snitch and chased after him.

At this time, he only needs to pay attention not to collide with others. It is basically only a matter of time to catch the golden thief.

Hufflepuff's goalkeeper also discovered that August seemed to be able to accurately locate the position of the golden snitch, so he decided to follow August closely and cause trouble for August by blocking the position. At the same time, he used August to find the trace of the golden snitch.

This strategy is indeed very good and has caused some trouble for August.

But what he didn't know was that August did not use all his strength at this time, but only used about fifty percent of the fastest speed he could control.

The reason why it is said to be "controlled" is because the fastest flight speed of all wizards does not mean the fastest flight speed he can control.

When using flying magic, the wizard can increase the flight speed to a very high level as long as it outputs magic to the maximum extent.

Of course, the final speed not only depends on the magic power output by the wizard, but also is related to the speed-up ability of the magic broom used by the wizard.

However, even if the wizard increases its speed very quickly, its reaction power may not be able to control such speed at all.

It's okay if you move in a straight line, but if you use speeds beyond your control in Quidditch competitions, you will basically have a high probability of accidents, collisions with other players, or if you don't control yourself, you will sprint to the ground or walls around the arena.

However, because of August's powerful soul power, his reaction power was far beyond that of ordinary wizards.

Once he activated the fastest he could control, it was enough to easily shake off the Hufflepuff seeker and catch the Golden Snitch in three minutes.
