The Ancient Wizards of Hogwarts

On the Quidditch pitch, fourteen broomsticks rose into the sky.

On one side is the team led by Penello, with a total of four official members, including two Chasers, a Beater and Seeker.

The remaining chaser and the other batsman are both newcomers who came for trial, while the wicketkeeper is a substitute.

On the other side is the team of Ash and Qiu Zhang. Ash is the chaser and Qiu Zhang is the seeker. Only two of them are novices in the entire team. The remaining two chasers and two batters are composed of regular players + substitutes. The goalkeeper is also a regular member.

On the surface, the team configurations of both sides are actually very fair.

Marietta is in the middle, holding a red Quaffle nervously.

It is worth mentioning that, except for Ash and the two goalkeepers, the other players on both sides are girls.

There is nothing that can be done about it, after all, the number of boys in Ravenclaw is indeed too scarce.

All golfers flew in the center of the court and formed a circle.

Qiu Zhang and another Seeker were above the two teams of players, and their tasks were different from the others.

"The rules are very simple. Just like the official Quidditch game, the side with the higher score at the end of the game wins. And your performance in this game will directly determine whether you can join the team and whether you can become a member of the team. Official team member, or replaced by a new member!"

Penelo explained the rules, his eyes swept over the other players one by one, and finally landed on Ash.

Although she hopes Ash can join the team, it is indeed a bit difficult, so there is this game.

Penello shouted down:

"Marietta, open the box!"

Marietta, directly below, was originally here to watch the show, but she was caught acting as a temporary referee without any explanation.

Hearing Penello's voice, she quickly opened the shaking box.

call out!

The black Bludger immediately rose into the sky, followed closely by the small but extremely fast Golden Snitch.

Immediately afterwards, the red Quaffle was also thrown into the sky by Marietta.

No one spoke, but everyone knew that was the signal for the game to begin!

Snapped!

Penello rushed forward immediately and reached out to grab the Quaffle.

But just as she was trying to hold the Quaffle in her arms and fly towards the goal post, she suddenly felt that her hand was empty.

A hand passed under her arm and snatched the Quaffle as fast as lightning!

Penelo turned around and could only see the back of Ash walking away with the Quaffle.

Without any hesitation, she immediately turned around and chased Ash with the other two Chasers.

At this time, if Ash is a qualified chaser, he should pass the ball to his teammates. Because when other chasers are surrounding him, his teammates will be unguarded and have every opportunity to rush into the scoring area first and score a point for their team.

But Ash didn't. He made the same mistake as any other novice, flying forward with the Quaffle in one hand and covering his head.

But this was enough to surprise Penello, because Ash just grabbed the Quaffle from her hand so fast that she didn't even react. Even though she wasn't used to cooperating with her teammates, she had already shown Ash is amazingly talented at this.

With a little training, he will definitely be an excellent chaser!

Penelo was just thinking that her two Chaser teammates had already double-teamed Ash on the left and right, and the next second they were going to snatch the Quaffle from him.

A little further to the right, Ash's teammates were shouting at him, trying to get him to pass the ball to him.

At this time, even if Ash wants to pass the ball, he has no chance, and there is a high probability that he will be intercepted.

But what no one expected was that instead of passing the ball, Ash lowered his body.

The next second, the tail of his broom glowed red as if burning, and rushed towards the goalpost like an arrow from the string, his speed more than doubled!

boom!

The instant acceleration allowed him to escape the pursuit, and also caused the two girls who originally wanted to attack her to collide with each other. Even Penello, who was watching all this, felt a dull pain in his chest. Is it true that he wouldn't be crushed if he exerted such force?

And Ash himself has already used this acceleration to quickly rush towards the goal post!

And in this situation, no one can stop Ash, because they don't even have the goalkeeper in place yet!

The Quaffle was thrown by Ash and whizzed through the middle ring.

The ball went in, so unexpectedly.

Everyone was frozen in mid-air, no one moved, and they even forgot to breathe.

It was as if even time had been stopped by this ball, and the scene was completely silent.

Snapped!

When everyone's breath stopped because of this, Qiu Zhang didn't.

She discovered the Snitch, narrowly avoided interference from a Bludger, and successfully caught the Snitch in her hands, ending the game immediately.

Ravenclaw almost made history today - because it was almost the fastest Quidditch match ever ended!

"Is it still a competition?"

Ash slowly flew to Penelo's side and blinked.

"No comparison!"

Penello glared at him and couldn't help but ask:

"how did you do it?"

"How did you do that?"

"I mean acceleration! Why can you suddenly accelerate so fast?"

Penello was simply unbelievable. It was not surprising that he could accelerate in Quidditch. Any broomstick had this ability.

But even for the most expensive and fastest Nimbus 2000, it takes a while to slowly pick up the speed. Penelo had never seen anyone who could double his speed in a split second like Ash!

Penello's parents are both Muggles, so she knows that in the Muggle world there is something called a car, and a car has something called zero-hundred-speed acceleration - if we want to make an appropriate analogy, then Nimbus 2000's zero-hundred-speed acceleration That's 5 seconds, while Ash's zero-hundred acceleration is only 1 second, or even less than 1 second!

With such a huge speed gap, it was impossible for anyone to catch up with Ash.

But the problem is that they all use Nimbus 2000!

The same equipment, why is there such a big difference?

Ash explained seriously:

"Actually, my broomstick is a specially modified version with a little extra money."

In fact, he changed it himself, simply adding a dozen magic spells - just a few minutes before he took off.

But no one would believe this even if I said it, so it might as well be said that it was changed with extra money.

A golfer next to him asked subconsciously:

"How much is a little?"

"6,000 gold galleons."

"hiss!"

The Ravenclaw students took a breath when they heard this number. This price can even buy 10 more Nimbus for 2000!

If this is such a method of adding money, then Ash's speed just now makes perfect sense - what the hell!

If simply adding money can achieve this effect, how could Nimbus not promote it? Even Gryffindor students would not believe such a poor excuse. How could they not see it after being able to enter Ravenclaw?

But as Ravenclaws, they certainly understood the principle of seeing through but not telling off, so no one openly spoke against it.

Ash looked at Penello, who still had shock in his eyes, and asked deliberately innocently:

"Senior Penello, can Qiu Zhang and I be substitutes?"

"cannot!"

Penello came to her senses and rejected him immediately. She said without hesitation: "Because you two have to join the main team!"
