Hogwarts Wandering Wizard

Chapter 175 Sample Firebolt and Competition

Although Eric had already guessed that it was a broomstick when he saw the long box, when Carl helped him open the gift box, he was still shocked by the narrow and exquisite broom.

This broom was cooler than any one Eric had seen in the Quidditch broom room. The polished ash wood broom handle was coated with a layer of light yellow oil for protection. , it seems to be glowing, shining with an intoxicating light; the tail of the broom is made of hazelwood branches, each one is neatly built and tanned into a streamlined shape.

At the connection between the broom handle and the end of the broom, the two foot pedals are folded and put away, fit on the end of the broom, and connected with a pure gold hoop.

Eric touched the broom handle reflecting the bright light with admiration on his face, looked at the "0000" number engraved in gold paint on the top, held the broom, and took it out of the box.

There was a soft metallic sound of "Clang~", and the stowed pedals he saw before automatically opened.

The broom trembled slightly in his hand. Eric let go of his hand, looked at it floating smoothly on his chest, and finally exhaled the breath he had been holding.Even if he hasn't ridden on it yet, he can feel the comfort of this broom while flying.

"I learned about your joining the Quidditch team and immediately went to find my cousin Randolph. Their family has been making broomsticks. As a result, I learned that he has been working on an unprecedented broomstick in recent years. So I asked him to build one for you."

Karl looked at his son's expression and knew that he was very satisfied with the broom. He smiled happily: "Although it is just a sample, its performance is definitely the best broom at present, and it is better than those hot chickens on the market. There are too many.”

"Does it have a name? Dad." Eric held the broom again, feeling the slight vibration it gave back, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

"According to Randolph, he planned to name this broom Firebolt, which means that its speed is as fast as a flaming crossbow. And considering that you are a chaser, I specifically did not let him use birch branches or birch branches. Lifting is very good. But when the hazel branches are used as broom tails, the control of the steering is better."

It turns out this is the Firebolt!

Eric's eyes lit up. According to the original work, the Firebolt was only officially sold to the outside world in 1993. Even a few years later, the Firebolt still beat all broomsticks, not to mention the current broomstick world. .

This is no longer an ordinary broomstick, this is simply a large strategic weapon.

The enemy has aircraft, but our army has Gundam!

……

"Listen, I want everyone to play fairly and honestly, and especially be careful about how you conduct yourself during the game."

The members of the two teams gathered around Mrs. Ho Qi. Listening to her warning before the start, Eric was keenly aware that when she said this, the expressions of the four people around him changed for a few seconds. Reference With the short sticks in their hands, he recognized these people as the batsmen who had made a "famous" name on the field.

"Prepare."

As Mrs. Huo Qi's whistle sounded, all the players got on their brooms and followed Mrs. Huo Qi into the sky.

Many people focused their attention on Eric's new broom. Lee Jordan held the binoculars and shouted to the Weasley brothers beside him who were desperately waving a huge banner saying "Eric must win": "What kind of thing is Eric riding? Why have I never seen it before?"

"That's a broomstick, you idiot."

"Go away, I know the broomstick, I mean which one it is."

"It doesn't matter which one it is, oh~ Shet~ why is his broom so fast!"

George shouted in surprise and subconsciously stopped waving the banner. He looked confused as Eric leaned on the Firebolt and scored the first goal of the game in just 15 seconds. He asked the classmates next to him: "What just happened?"

"What just happened, what happened?" came the excited shout from the commentator from Hufflepuff: "In just 15 seconds, Eric Foley, the freshman from Gryffindor, easily defeated Scored the first goal of the game, Merlin's beard, so fast that Ravenclaw's ace Felix Foley didn't even react."

Following Eric's first goal, the students who had just sat down to watch the game stood up in confusion as the bell rang. After a few seconds of reaction, they finally understood what had happened. , gave out fierce cheers.

Amidst the noisy shouts, curses also came from the Ravenclaw audience seats, and Roger Davis angrily slapped the fence in front of him.

Eric easily changed direction on his broom, flew towards his teammates, and started fighting with the two chasers again.He had already communicated with them before the game started, telling them that he would fly very fast in this game and let them just pass the ball.

Lusak flew over and gave him a high-five, floating next to him, looking at his broom with a wry smile and shaking his head: "Eric, you are so dishonest. You can't fly very fast. You are flying so fast." It’s literally the speed of light.”

Carl Foley, who was sitting with his wife in the faculty stand, also clapped excitedly, laughed and put his arm around Snape's shoulders: "Sev, do you see, this is my son, isn't he awesome? .”

Snape pushed away the excited Carl, smiled awkwardly, and clapped with him, but he said without mercy: "It's amazing, and the level of getting into trouble is about the same as you did back then."

"It's passed down from the same line, it's normal." Karl said with a smile, and then stood up again and cheered loudly. While the two of them were talking, Eric hit the goal from a super long distance and scored the Quaffle again. Vinclaw's goal.

After Catherine applauded her son, she chatted with Severus Snape about his son's performance in school.Surprisingly, Severus Snape did not refuse to communicate with Catherine because she was a Muggle, but instead chatted with her in a very easy-going manner.

Charlie Weasley also flew over on his broom, and excitedly high-fived Eric, patted his strong back, and said excitedly: "I knew you could do it. Fortunately, McGonagall The professor agreed to let you join the team, otherwise a genius like you would be buried."

"Just a fluke!"

Eric replied with a smile. When he turned around, he looked in the direction of the observatory and raised his thumb.

Romer, who was far away at the observatory, saw his gesture through the telescope, and floated up. Looking at the ghosts gathered in front of a pair of telescopes, he clapped his hands and shouted: "Guys, those two goals just happened." Wonderful!"

The almost headless Nick shook his head and lifted up from a telescope. His milky white face was full of excitement. He looked at the distant Quidditch pitch. He clapped his hands excitedly, then stopped in a hurry to steady himself. He scratched his head: "Wonderful, so wonderful, our Gryffindor little lions are indeed the strongest."

The fat monk also nodded and responded. He also knew about Hufflepuff's fiasco yesterday. Although he didn't pay too much attention to it, seeing the Ravenclaw team being frustrated at this moment, he somehow felt... I suddenly felt so good.

Helena, who was wearing a princess dress, did not raise her head. She still leaned in front of the telescope, looked in the direction of the Quidditch field and snorted coldly, and said unhurriedly: "The game has just begun, and you are already getting carried away? Don’t forget, the fun is always coming. Look, Ravenclaw scored.”

With Mrs. Hooch's whistle, the score of Gryffindor VS Ravenclaw became 20:10 on the huge scoreboard.

The Bloody Barrow standing next to her raised his head from the telescope, looked in Romer's direction and shook his head, expressing his denial to Eric.

"Haha~ Helena, you have to be so stubborn. You Ravenclaws are going to lose today. I told you that even Merlin can't stop me, huh~"

Romer snorted unhappily, then pulled the ghosts one by one and asked them about Eric's performance. It wasn't until the ghosts praised Eric with smiles on their faces that she let them go and continued to turn. Next person.

On the Quidditch pitch, Eric's ears were constantly filled with new news.

"Acquiring the heartfelt praise of the ghost, the movement speed is increased by 3%, the flying speed is increased by 1%, and the duration is 30 minutes."

"Acquiring the heartfelt praise of the ghost, the movement speed is increased by 6%, the flying speed is increased by 2%, and the duration is 30 minutes."

……

"Congratulations to the host for receiving heartfelt praise from ten ghosts. The movement speed is increased by an additional 10%, the flying speed is increased by 5%, and the duration is 60 minutes."

"Ding~ The driving proficiency skill has been upgraded, the current level is 5: 1% () - Black Knight (The moment the knight bends down, no one can catch up with you.)

Current level bonus: Movement speed +4%. When using a vehicle, this bonus is x3. "

Listening to the messages that kept ringing, Eric held the Quaffle like a stream of light, quickly passing through the field. The excellent braking ability of the sample Firebolt allowed him to stop easily and move away. Intercepting his cousin Felix Foley.

When he passed by him, Eric chuckled, smiled at his cousin and said, "Sorry, I take away this year's championship!"
