Chapter 178: Hermione's frustration
Chapter 178 Hermione’s Frustration
This year's Quidditch match has already caused two sensations before it even started.
First, Kyle's record of 21 goals in ten minutes set off a wave of Quidditch fever.
Not long before this matter subsided, more sensational news came... Harry Potter, the recognized savior of the wizarding world, who defeated the Dark Lord, actually became the youngest Seeker in a century.
The name Harry Potter itself is very popular, coupled with this legendary experience, it is destined that this year's Quidditch game will be more lively than before.
Half an hour before the start of the game, the surrounding stands were already full of people, and even the biting cold wind could not affect their enthusiasm at all.
“This thing is so useful…”
In the Slytherin stands, Malfoy looked at the "little snake" with blue light wrapped around his arm, and felt warm and indescribably comfortable.
And every time he stretched out his arm, the snake would open its mouth and make a "hissing" sound toward the Gryffindor stands opposite.
The only flaw is that the sound is too small, and the cheers cannot be heard if the cheers are slightly louder.
Unlike the other side, the deafening roar of the lion can be clearly heard even in the castle.
“Why isn’t there a premium version this time?” Malfoy muttered under his breath.
Goyle next to him immediately said: "That Kyle said that the time was too short and there was no time to do it."
He also had a small snake like this wrapped around his arm.
“I heard it, you don’t need to remind me.” Malfoy glared at him, and then said loudly: “And he promised me that he will bring what I want at the next Slytherin match.
It will be larger and more flexible than now, and the colors will be the silver and green colors that symbolize Slytherin. "
There were many young wizards around who immediately became interested after hearing this.
They are all owners who are not short of money, so naturally they don’t mind buying themselves a better set of support equipment.
"Draco, this kind of thing should be much more complicated than a map..."
Someone asked doubtfully: "That Kyle is just a sophomore, can he really do it?"
"Sure." Malfoy raised his eyebrows and said, "In fact, he has already promised me."
…
At the same time, not far away in the Hufflepuff stands, Cedric also raised the same question.
"Kyle, can you really fulfill Malfoy's request?"
"It's a bit troublesome..." Kyle frowned: "But it's not impossible to solve, it just takes a little time."
The things they sold before were just deformed glass bottles, with some sound effects added at most, which was not too difficult to make.
But Malfoy's series of requests can no longer be solved by the transformation spell.
That is a true magic item.
But in front of a hundred galleons, these troubles are minor problems.
Cedric also understood what Kyle meant, and he smacked his lips with some sigh.
It can only be said that the Malfoy family is indeed rich, and they actually spend a hundred galleons to buy a toy, which is already more than his father's monthly salary.
After a while, the professors appeared.
Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape...even Professor Sprout, who has been in the greenhouse all year round, are here.
Except for Principal Dumbledore, it seemed that all the teachers and students of the school came to the stands around the Quidditch pitch, and many students also brought binoculars.
Some of the seats at the back have been raised into the air, but sometimes it's still difficult to see what's going on on the court.
Soon, the two teams entered the Quidditch pitch from the passage.
After seeing Harry Potter in his team uniform, a burst of excited cheers erupted from the Gryffindor stands, followed by countless deafening roars.
"That thing is great..." Ron glanced enviously at the blue lion heads in the hands of Neville and Seamus, and said to Hermione sourly: "You should really buy one too."
“No need, Ron.”
Hermione shook her head and said: "Those are just simple Blue Bell Fire Spells and Transformation Spells, they are not worth fifteen Sickles at all.
And haven’t I already made one for you? "
“That’s different.”
Ron lowered his head and glanced at the transparent jar in his hand. Although it was very warm, it couldn't roar like a lion.
Kyle said at the time that it was a support prop, used to liven up the atmosphere. The heating is just to allow everyone to watch the game better. The additional small functions are not worth the money at all.
Looking at Ron's disgusted expression, Hermione raised her eyebrows angrily and immediately took away the jar in his hand.
“If you don’t want it, give it back to me!”
A gust of wind blew by, and Ron couldn't help but shiver before he could realize what happened.
“Hiss, it’s so cold!”
“Hermione…”
“Hmph!” Hermione snorted coldly, turning her head and ignoring him.
In fact, Hermione also knew in her heart that the heating jar she made was very different from the one others held.
On the way here, she tried secretly several times. Although she could transform the jar, it was not as refined as Kyle's. In addition, she couldn't make a lion's roar.
Such a huge gap already made Hermione very frustrated, but Ron still showed such a disgusted expression, which was like a direct collision with the muzzle of the gun.
With no choice but to do so, Ron could only get as close to Neville and Seamus as possible, and then he felt less cold.
At the same time, with a whistle, the game started.
“Look, the Quaffle was immediately snatched by Gryffindor’s Angelina Johnson…”
Li Jordan's voice came from the commentary box. He passed the selection as he wished and became the new Quidditch commentator.
It’s just that… Li Qiaodan went a bit off track after just saying a serious sentence.
“That girl is such an excellent chaser, and she is also very charming...”
“Jordan!” Professor McGonagall reminded dissatisfiedly.
“I’m sorry, Professor.”
There was a burst of laughter all around.
Kanna glanced at the commentary table and whispered: "This year's commentary feels a bit...well, special."
"It's understandable." Kyle spread his hands and said with a smile: "Li Jordan is a friend of Fred and George. You'd better not expect him to be normal."
Cedric next to him nodded in agreement, but he soon froze.
Wait a minute, I seem to be friends with Fred and George too...
In the stands, Li Qiaodan continued to explain.
Should I say it or not, after all, he is a person who has passed various selections. Li Qiaodan’s professional ability is still very strong. Although he occasionally makes a few slanderous remarks, his serious explanations are not delayed at all.
The audience quickly adapted to his novel way of explanation. It was a little less serious than before, but it was quite interesting after getting used to it.
