Marvel's Magic Master

Chapter 41 A rare genius

Yes, the wire is George's secret weapon for controlling his broomstick.

Whether the broom flies well or not depends mainly on whether the wizard is proficient in operating the broom.

By wrapping a circle of iron wire on the flying broom, in addition to relying on magic to control the flying broom, he can also use magnetism to make more detailed adjustments, providing double protection.

In fact, with his clone weighing dozens of kilograms, it can fly just by magnetism, but it is not as fast as a flying broom.

He also used this technique on his own magic wand. There was a circle of wire at the end of his wand, so that he could instantly summon the wand back after it slipped out of his hand.

“Holding the broom steady, rise a few feet, then lean forward slightly and drop straight back to the ground.

Listen to my whistle: 3-2-1! ”

As Madam Hooch blew her whistle, the little wizards all jumped and flew into the air on their broomsticks.

However, most of them were not very stable after flying in the air and had to maintain their flight carefully. But there were some who had experience and flew very well and very fast, such as Ginny.

"Ginny, very good, you flew quite well."

Ginny's outstanding performance soon attracted Hooch's attention, and she couldn't help but praise her loudly, preparing to give Gryffindor extra points, but she was soon interrupted by a cry of surprise.

Turning her head to look at the Slytherin group on the right, an expression of surprise suddenly appeared on her face.

"Oh, Merlin, this is a starfish hanging upside down, a Wollongong zigzag, a sloth tree roll, and a Wronski feint. This is impossible!"

What did she see? She saw George, the star of Slytherin, actually performing difficult Quidditch moves that only world-class Quidditch players could master.

Like the upside-down starfish, it is a move that only top-notch broomstick goalkeepers can do.

When the Quaffle is about to enter the door but there is no time to guard it, immediately hang upside down on one foot on the broomstick and block the Quaffle by spreading your limbs.

Woollongong Zigzag Flying is a high-speed Chaser flying in a zigzag pattern to confuse the opposing Chaser.

The sloth rolls around in the tree, and when the Bludger attacks, the player hangs on the broom, holds the broom handle tightly with both hands and feet, and quickly spins the flying broom to flick the Bludger away like a drill, an extremely difficult move.

Wonski faked a move, and the Seeker pretended to see the Snitch far below, and rushed to the ground, asking the other Seeker to imitate him. However, the former stopped diving just before hitting the ground, so that the other Seeker would not have time to react and hit the ground and faint.

This move requires the Seeker to have extreme control over the broomstick.

If you can master any one of these four moves, you will be 100% qualified to apply for any position of seeker, chaser, beater or goalkeeper in the national Quidditch team.

Even she couldn't complete all four moves smoothly, let alone using the sweeping series broom used for teaching in school.

You should know that the sweeping series brooms used for teaching in schools have a history of several decades. It is no problem to fly them during normal classes, but if the speed is too fast, they will shake and become difficult to control.

However, look at George, he can not only control it, but also perform these four difficult classic moves.

"Slytherin gets twenty extra points. You can practice freely. George, come with me!"

After George landed safely, Huo Qi shouted excitedly, walked forward, pulled George and walked towards the castle.

"Is this really your first time riding a broomstick?"

She asked incredulously as she walked.

George nodded shyly:
"I can't get a ride where I live, but I have read some books and related introductions about Quidditch."

He knew his plan had worked. With the strength of his body and the stable control of the flying broom by magnetism, he could easily do a few Thomas turns on the flying broom, let alone the four moves just now.

"Oh really. This is incredible."

After hearing George's answer, Huo Qi was a little incoherent.

In the office of the Slytherin Headmaster, Snape was sitting on a chair writing down his research experience on a new potion. He was suddenly startled by a hurried knock on the door. He could not help but frown and waved his wand to open the door.

"Ms. Hooch, is there something so important that requires such a rush?"

Seeing that the visitors were Huo Qi, the flying teacher and the best student in his academy, he relaxed a little.

Hooch excitedly pushed George in front of Snape:

"Professor Snape, you Slytherin has produced a Quidditch genius that is rare in a thousand years. You won't believe it. The first time he rode a flying broom, he used it so well."

"Is what you said true?"

After hearing what Hooch said, Snape, who usually had a blank expression on his face, became uneasy.

As the head of Slytherin, he has very deep feelings for Slytherin House. He has always been brooding over Slytherin's loss to Gryffindor last year, especially Gryffindor with Harry.

If George really has such a strong talent for flying broomsticks, then Slytherin will never lose again in the next seven years.

"I'm not old enough to be dazzled, and many of the kids in your academy saw it, too."

Hooch seemed a little angry at Snape's questioning.

Snape said quickly:
"I'm not questioning you, I'm just a little surprised."

He turned his head and looked at George, revealing a smile that was uglier than crying:
"George, you're great, you've always been great.

I will personally arrange for you to join the Slytherin Quidditch team on Saturday. Gryffindor can make an exception, and so can we Slytherins!"

"Um. Professor, I don't really want to join the Quidditch team."

George replied, pretending to be a little embarrassed.

After hearing what George said, Hooch and Snape were both startled, and then asked almost at the same time:

"why?"

You know, joining the Quidditch team is the dream of every little wizard. What's more, George has such a tall flying broom, he is simply a natural Quidditch player.

George looked up at Snape and coughed:
"That's right. Compared to Quidditch, I prefer studying magic, especially Defense Against the Dark Arts. Professor Lockhart's Defense Against the Dark Arts class is very special, so I need more time to study on my own.

But after joining Quidditch, I will definitely have to practice regularly, so I won’t have enough time. Alas, self-study is still difficult.”

"What you said does make sense. Compared to Quidditch, learning magic is the foundation. Lockhart is indeed a fool. Hmm."

Snape couldn't help but fall into deep thought after hearing this.

In his opinion, learning magic is definitely more important than Quidditch. He doesn't have much interest in Quidditch. As the head of the school, he naturally hopes that Slytherin can win the Quidditch Cup.

"Well, you will join the Slytherin team. I will try my best to prevent them from asking you to train. I will take half a day off every weekend to help you with Defense Against the Dark Arts."
