Chapter 80: “The Fastest Quidditch Match in History”
In a Quidditch match, there are seven players: three Chasers, two Beaters, a Keeper, and a Seeker.
To score a goal and receive ten points, three of the Chasers must play the Quaffle and throw it into the opponents goal.
The two Beaters are in charge of escorting the players on their side and throwing the incredibly aggressive Bludgers into the air. It would be even better to hit the ball in the direction of the opponent with the correct technique.
The Keepers job is to protect the net and keep the other teams players from putting the Quaffle through their own three scoring hoops.
The Seeker plays the most significant role. They are in charge of getting the Golden Snitch. The ga is over once he has captured the Golden Snitch, and they will receive a total of 150 points.
Therefore, in the normal case, the team whose Seeker captures the Golden Snitch first effectively wins.
After all, a gap of 150 points cannot be beaten even though the enemy had trendous skills in normal scoring.
But, the Golden Snitch is challenging to catch. The duel has occasionally been tragically prolonged by the failure of the Seekers on either side to capture the Golden Snitch in the past.
Because Gryffindors Seekers were weaker than their own Seekers in the past, Slytherin was able to defeat them. Every ti, the Golden Snitch was initially caught by their Seekers.
In truth, before Slytherins Seeker caught the Snitch, Gryffindor always had a higher score than Slytherin, but the difference was never as great as it is now.
You should be aware that Gryffindor has incredibly strong Beaters and Chasers, particularly the teams captain Charlie Weasley, who just graduated last year.
Charlie Weasley allegedly turned down an invitation from the British Quidditch squad after graduating.
This ga against Gryffindor will be in jeopardy if Jerry is unable to perform perfectly, leading to the opposing Seeker catching the Golden Snitch first. In the hands of his present captain, the seven years of victory over those heedless Gryffindors will co to an end.
Marcus is more anxious than Jerry himself for the sa reason.
Now, lets open the doors and let the players from both teams in! At this point, Gryffindor third-year wizard Lee Jordan made an announcent while comntating on a Quidditch match.
His voice grew quieter, and the young wizards outside started to yell together.
Okay, here we go! Good luck to everyone!
Jerry, who was riding the Nimbus 2000, and the remaining six team mbers flew out first after Marcus launched off on his broomstick.
The Gryffindor team, decked out in brilliant red Quidditch robes, and the Slytherin team, decked out in dark green robes, rapidly took off from opposite ends of the Quidditch pitch.
When Ms. Hooch was already standing in the middle of the pitch, he waved his hands coquettishly in the air before slowly descending on both sides of her. The tension in the situation abruptly rose to a peak.
Gryffindor!
Slytherin!
One after another, the yells grew louder and louder. However, it is clear that the voice of support for Gryffindor is much louder than the voice of support for Slytherin. The courageous and passionate Gryffindor is in no way more popular than the haughty and disdainful Slytherin.
As a result, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw supported Gryffindor apart from their respective houses. But sothing wasnt right when they closely examined the athletes on both sides of the pitch.
In other words, the Slytherin teams Seeker is not the sa Terrence Higgs who hasnt changed in four years, but rather a fresh face who clearly resembles a first or second-year wizard.
That is Jerry! How did he get to be the Seeker for the Slytherin team? Daphne and all the Slytherin wizards simultaneously let out a collective astonishnt in the Slytherin stands at this point.
Hermione, Harry, and Ron, who were also on the Gryffindor side and knew Jerry, also exclaid in wonder.
Jerry! Jerry ended up being the Seeker! Hermione, did you know that Jerry beca a Seeker in his first year?
I dont know, but that should be impossible. He spends every weekend reading with
in the library but has never attended a training session at the Quidditch field! Hermione shook her head in shock when she heard Harry and Rons question.
Who can tell
the na of this new Seeker? Oh, rlins beard, we discovered out that Slytherin truly changed their Seeker. They bravely used a new Seeker. The voice of comntator Lee Jordan could now be heard coming from the tower stand once more.
What? his na is Jerry Carn? Isnt he the Jerry that rescued Professor Quirrell from the troll? But if Im not mistaken, hes still supposed to be a first-year freshman. Is Slytherins brazen and arrogant usage of first-year students just that, or is there a unique reason behind it? Lets wait and find out!
All the young wizards understood after hearing Lee Jordans explanation that this new Seeker was the first-year Slytherin who had rescued Professor Quirrell from a troll on Halloween a week prior.
Not all of them had seen Jerry. They had only heard of him before. He was now well-known to everyone at Hogwarts, including the wizards in Hogsade.
However, at this point, most people are not very hopeful about utilizing a freshman as the most significant Seeker in place of Terrence Higgs, who has five years of expertise. Most of them frowned, especially the senior wizards of Slytherin.
Play hard for a while, well win this ga. said Wood from the Gryffindor team to the players in a voice even more giddy than usual.
Now, I want a nice fair ga, all of you
Ms. Hooch had a broom and a silver whistle in each hand. She cast a quick glance at the two teams, particularly Marcus, the Slytherin leader. Because he frequently utilized his size and muscle to commit fouls in previous gas.
She finished her sentence and blew loudly into the silver whistle. All of the players from the two sides imdiately ascended into the air.
What a Chaser that girl is, and shes pretty charming. Angelina Johnson of Gryffindor snatched the Quaffle right away. Lee Jordans comntary started again once more.
The Golden Snitch was released. rlins beard, it vanished in an instant because of its swiftness. Oh, our Slytherin began searching for the ball. Did he discover the Golden Snitch?
Oh, rlins underpants, what did I just see? I must be dreaming. How could it be? Slytherins new Seeker Jerry, he caught caught caught the Snitch!
It has been less than a minute since the Golden Snitch was released. This is probably the fastest ga in Quidditch history!
