Chapter 038
The competition entered a white-hot stage, becoming more intense and cruel.
Hufflepuff had to use Parkin’s pincer tactics to restrict Avis’s performance. Two chasers approached him from the wings, while the other chaser flew towards him head-on.
In this case, Ives had to give up the ball and instead pass the Quaffle to the players.
The Hufflepuff players also gradually entered the state, repeatedly blocked Ravenclaw’s attacks, and began to organize counterattacks in an orderly manner.
The scores between the two sides are getting closer
“Eagle head offensive formation!”Lee explained on the radio,”The three Ravenclaw chasers formed an arrow-shaped formation and flew towards the Hufflepuff goal post. The leader with the ball was Brittany.”
This tactic posed a great threat to Hufflepuff. The three chasers had to temporarily step aside and wait for the batter to disrupt their formation. The
Ravenclaw chasers went straight into Hufflepuff. Hufflepuff’s defense, they flexibly avoided the bludgers hit by the opponent’s batters, and kept approaching the goal post.
On the Hufflepuff side, they planned to rely on foul tactics to interrupt Ravenclaw’s advance. When gaining momentum, Ives suddenly accelerated and passed Brittney in the first place.
He took the Quaffle from Brittney, leaned over suddenly, and arrived in front of the goal frame in the blink of an eye.
Goalkeeper Baddeley was tight Staring closely at the Quaffle in Ives’s arms, at this moment, he only had eyes for the ball!
Ives took action, and Baddeley threw himself in the direction of his shot without thinking.
Just as he was about to throw himself At that moment, his eyes widened. The Quaffle was still in Ives’ hand!
“Fake action!”Lee shouted excitedly,”Aves deceived Baddeley by pretending to throw a ball.”
“Ravenclaw scored and the score came to 130:100!”
The audience burst into enthusiastic cheers, and even some of the little wizards from Gryffindor and Slytherin were shouting. They were all conquered by Avis’s performance.
Avis was hovering in mid-air, Raise your hands and start cheering.
Although Ravenclaw is temporarily in the lead, the advantage is not big. If you want to end the game, you still need Zhang Qiu to catch the Golden Snitch. He was thinking while enjoying the enthusiastic support of the audience.
At this moment , a golden light flashed past his eyes.
The talent [Quidditch’s Rising Star] gave him excellent dynamic vision. Ives squinted slightly and followed the movement of the golden snitch.
He turned his head towards Zhang Qiu shouted:”Sister Zhang, over there!”
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to point her in the direction.
Both Zhang Qiu and Cedric heard his voice, but Zhang Qiu’s reaction was faster than Cedric’s, and she took the lead in speeding up.
“Seekers on both sides seem to have found traces of the Golden Snitch,” Li shouted,”but it seems that Autumn is faster.”
The entire stand seemed to have suddenly pressed the mute button. Everyone held their breath, waiting for which team would be the first to catch the Golden Snitch. Both
Qiu and Cedric’s speeds had reached their limit, but because they had already reached the limit, In the activated relationship, Qiu undoubtedly had the advantage.
The two of them reached forward at the same time.
The next moment, Li hissed:”Zhang Qiu has caught the golden snitch, the game is over!””
The Ravenclaw stands suddenly burst into applause, and the eaglets were shouting:
“Ravenclaw! Ravenclaw!”
The other three houses also started to applaud one after another, including Hufflepuff. This game was very exciting. The two houses showed fr
iendship and style.
The little badgers thought they were inferior to others and secretly vowed to do it next time We must win it back. But now, victory belongs to Ravenclaw, and they are also willing to give applause to the eaglets.
In the stadium, Qiu grabbed the Golden Snitch in a daze, she was still a little unbelievable, we actually won?
“Congratulations,” Cedric congratulated warmly.
Qiu hugged her excitedly, and within a second she realized what she had done. She blushed and fled the scene, leaving only Cedric and Li in a daze. Howling on the radio
“Autumn, my Autumn~ Cedric, you and I are at odds with each other”
“Lee Jordan!”Professor McGonagall’s voice suddenly came, and Li stopped moving.
……
In the days that followed, Ives’s life became peaceful again, except that more and more witches were ogling him.
But maybe this is also a kind of happiness?
As long as Hermione wasn’t staring at him with a dead look in her eyes.
At noon on Wednesday, Harry sent a message to Ivis and Hermione on behalf of Hagrid, inviting them to have tea in Hagrid’s cabin in the afternoon.
The two readily agreed.
After herbal medicine class in the afternoon, Ivis and Hermione walked onto the gravel path leading outside the castle.
Hagrid lived in a small cabin on the edge of the Forbidden Forest. There was a stone bow and a pair of rubber galoshes in front of the door.
In the open space in front of the hut, you can see Hagrid’s pumpkins growing in the distance. Their sizes are very strange. The big ones can be as tall as a carriage, as if they were under a swelling spell, while the small ones are the size of ordinary pumpkins.
“It looks like there are still some Halloween pumpkins left.” Ives licked the corner of his mouth, recalling the delicious pumpkin pie made by the house elves at the Halloween dinner.”Maybe I can sneak into the kitchen tonight and let them make some pumpkin pie for a midnight snack.
Hermione rolled her eyes angrily,”Stop torturing them.””
Ever since she learned that there were house elves in the castle, Hermione spent a lot of time looking up information about this race.
She was very, very angry. She never knew that their food, clothing, housing, and transportation were actually the product of slavery!
Boycott! , boycotted immediately.
From then on, Hermione refused to eat the food prepared by the house elves no matter what, and tried to instill in them in the kitchen that labor must be paid, that everyone is free, and house elves are also human beings. and other thoughts.
However, this had no effect other than arousing fear among the house elves.
Until Ivis told her that the house elves had existed for hundreds of years. Since the wizards defeated and enslaved them, countless For hundreds of years, house elves have been engraved with a mental imprint. They exist only to serve wizards.
If Hermione told them now that they were wrong, house elves should not serve wizards unconditionally, but should receive payment.
This will only make them panic and make them deny the meaning of their existence.
Even after realizing this, Hermione still hoped to change the attitude of the house elves.
However, she was rejected as soon as she proposed to form an”Association for the Promotion of House Elves’ Rights”. Ives vetoed it, and Ives told her that there have been only two types of reforms since ancient times: one is top-down reform, and the other is bottom-up revolution.
“Since house elves are unwilling to change the status quo, why don’t you try to stand at the top of the wizarding world and then change it?”
After the two of them talked, Hermione studied harder.
