Master Druid at Hogwarts

Chapter 780 Enemy Attack
Harry rode a broomstick, flying multitasking over the Quidditch pitch.

He has to keep an eye on the movement outside the field, and constantly interfere with Cho Chang to prevent her from catching the Snitch, and also has to avoid the Bludgers that will be hit by Ravenclaw batsmen from time to time... Thanks to him His flying talent is outstanding, otherwise he would have fallen off the broom long ago.

What makes Harry most helpless is that in previous games, just looking for the Snitch would take him a lot of time, and today's game doesn't know what's going on. By the way, I saw the golden snitch passing by, and even once, the golden snitch flew past his ear, as if knowing that he didn't intend to catch him...

Harry could only constantly adjust his position in the air, using his body to block between Cho Chang and the Snitch, and he even used the legendary Prenton's copy back technique!

The Plumpton Snitch is a tactic invented by Rodriguez Plumpton in 1921. Simply put, the Seeker does not catch the Snitch, but hides it with his sleeve.

Although Plumnton insisted to his death that he did it on purpose, most people think it was just a coincidence that the Snitch himself crashed into his sleeve.

It's just that this tactic is quite useful for teams that want to chase points, so it was finally written into the Quidditch tactic manual, but the number of times it actually appeared in the game is very rare.

There are three reasons: one is that the operation is difficult, and it is not easy to catch the Snitch, let alone cover it with the sleeve; rampant in his sleeves, other people can easily detect something is wrong...

That's how Harry was discovered, for example.

"Prenton copy back!" Zacharias Smith, the narrator, shouted in surprise: "This is the first time I've seen anyone use this tactic!"

Even at high altitude, Harry could hear the roar of laughter coming from below.

Here I have to mention the third reason why Prenton's copying technique rarely appears...

This tactic is too hated, and doing so is simply mocking the opponent's Seeker's skill.

After Harry's tactics were discovered, the entire Ravenclaw team was outraged, the batsmen kept hitting Bludgers to his side, and Cho Chang stopped looking for the Snitch, she was desperate It entangled Harry, restricting his escape routes.

Others in Gryffindor took advantage of this opportunity and scored several goals in a row.

From the perspective of the game... Harry's tactic was quite successful.

Just as Harry was struggling to deal with the joint target of the Ravenclaw players, Greyback led his men out of the small woods and rushed towards the Quidditch pitch.

Harry, who caught a glimpse of them from the corner of his eye, suddenly regained his energy. He jerked his broom high to avoid a Bludger flying towards him, then pointed at Greyback and the others who were rushing towards him and shouted: "Wait a minute! Look over there! Someone seems to be coming!"

Qiu Zhang subconsciously looked in the direction Harry was pointing at. Although he couldn't see the faces of those people clearly, the menacing appearance of those people obviously didn't look like Hogwarts professors or students.

"Who are they?" Qiu Zhang asked suspiciously.

"I don't know, but I have a bad feeling."

Harry prevaricated casually, and then controlled the broomstick to get closer to Greyback's group for a certain distance, and he didn't fly too fast, but pretended to want to see who was coming. Looking curious.

"Harry, what are you doing?!" Ron, who had become a batter, chased up from below with a stick, stopped Harry, and then looked in the direction Harry was looking at. "Who are they?"

"I don't know, I want to go over and have a look." Harry suppressed the anxiety in his heart, controlled the broomstick and continued to lean over there.

"Are you crazy?! We're still in the game!" Then Ron grabbed his robe, "If you fly off the field without a reason, you will be sentenced to lose!"

The behavior of several people on the court naturally attracted the attention of others. Ms. Hooch even blew the whistle vigorously and shouted for Harry to go back to the game.

"Leave this to me, you guys continue the game!"

At this time, Ms. Hooch also followed Harry's eyes and saw the group of strange people, so she flew towards Greyback and the others while gesturing for Harry and the others to go back to the game.

Harry's heart tightened suddenly, and he wanted to catch up, but he was afraid that his behavior would appear too deliberate.

However, when he was hesitating, Greyback probably thought that he had been discovered, or really thought that they could defeat the professors and students of Hogwarts head-on, directly facing Ms. Hooch who flew towards them A Killing Curse was fired.

"careful!"

At this time, Harry didn't care about whether he was intentional or not. He suddenly accelerated and caught up with Ms. Hooch from the side, and then slammed her aside.

After successfully saving Ms. Hooch, Harry stabilized the broomstick under him, then took out his wand and tapped his throat lightly.

"The voice is loud..." Harry took a deep breath, and then roared: "Enemy attack! Everyone, get ready to fight!"

At the same time, the group of werewolves also launched a black magic mark very cooperatively, and a huge green skeleton rose into the air, swallowing a python in its mouth.

"That idiot Greyback!" Umbridge, who was still hiding in the grove, couldn't help screaming and cursing when he saw the Dark Mark in the sky, "He's worried that the people from Hogwarts won't come fast enough ?!"

The expressions of the others are also very ugly. Compared to those werewolves who are not clear-headed, they are actually the same as Umbridge, and they don't want to come to Hogwarts to cause trouble, but now they have no choice.

"Get ready to fight! Anyway, we'll be fine even if we get caught." One of the fugitives glanced at the place where Lucius was standing before, and said helplessly.

Then they saw a golden light flying from the direction of the Hogwarts castle, and the golden light exploded suddenly after approaching the Dark Mark, turning into a golden light twice larger than the Dark Mark cat head.

"Meow--!"

(=ΦДΦ=)
The golden cat in the sky barked and opened its mouth, then gnawed on the Dark Mark.

The Black Devil's Mark that was attacked immediately collapsed, turning into a cloud of shimmering green light, and was quickly dispersed by the rampant cat head in the sky.

"……what is that?"

Among the group of people in the grove, except for Lucius and Umbridge, none of them had watched the Quidditch World Cup two years ago. They were guarded by dementors, and they would not be in the mood to read newspapers , Naturally, I don't know the origin of this cat head.

"That's Fish McGonagall's spell!"

Umbridge said through gritted teeth, eyes fixed on the road leading to the Quidditch pitch.At this time, her thoughts changed again...

She wanted to take this opportunity to kill that annoying little monster, Fish McGonagall!
"Attention everyone! If you see a boy with cat ears or a tabby cat appear, attack immediately! Don't hesitate!" Umbridge said viciously.

However, others did not take her order seriously. Although Voldemort appointed Umbridge as the leader, this group of criminals would not be convinced.

Moreover, they didn't think that a Hogwarts student was much of a threat, even though they had heard a lot about Fish during the period after the escape.

"Huh? Isn't this Umbridge? You're back!"

(ΦωΦ)

Just when everyone was focusing on the road outside the forest, a cat-like voice came from above their heads.

Everyone looked around and saw a boy with cat ears squatting on a tree, waving at them.
