Chapter 863 Hero
Suddenly, Harry felt an invisible hand pushing him, and it seemed to be shaking his broom, trying to push him down.
All he could do was hold the broom tightly with both hands to prevent himself from falling. Now he was swinging at least three stories high, and his ten fingers felt like they were about to break, and his arms were sore and numb.
Thanks to the improved food in Hogwarts over the past six months, Harry, who can eat meat every day, has gained a lot of strength. If he had just started school, he would probably have no strength now.
Duran observed Dumbledore and found that he didn't seem to notice Harry's crisis, but was concentrating on watching the chase and collision between the two teams with a smile, feeling the sportsmanship of the young people's sweat and flesh.
Looking at the other professors, they didn't seem to see Harry's problem. Only Snape was muttering something in a low voice, but it was covered by the cheers at the scene, but judging from the shape of his mouth, it should be a spell, and looking at his eyes, he was indeed paying attention to Harry.
Snape's psychological treatment has been going on for a while. Harry knows that Snape is not disliking Harry, but disappointed. His biggest wish is that Lily's son can be more like Lily. Unfortunately, in addition to inheriting Lily's eye color, Harry completely inherited James's ability to be naughty and unruly. This made Snape very disappointed. Every time he saw Harry, he didn't think of him as Lily's son, but thought of him as James' son, so he naturally couldn't like him.
However, when Harry was in crisis, Snape could still help for Lily's sake.
Looking at Quirrell again, he was indeed casting a spell, but he was more secretive and hardly moved his lips.
Ron and Grant both knew that Harry was in trouble. When they saw Snape casting a spell across from them through the telescope, they immediately confirmed that he was harming Harry because Snape didn't like Harry.
Young people are easily deceived by appearances.
Grant ran to the professor's seat and asked Snape to stop chanting the spell. She never knew that she was harming Harry.
At this time, a new situation emerged. The Bludger, which was supposed to chase the players, suddenly lost control and rushed towards the Gryffindor stand, obviously targeting Hermione.
Fortunately, Duran was alert and aware of the situation, and discovered the crisis his daughter encountered in time.
Bludgers are iron magic balls, the size of a lead shot, very heavy, and can cause fractures if hit. The reason why this kind of ball that attacks players is added to Quidditch games is to increase the excitement.
The students on the high platform of Gryffindor screamed, and the Bludgers came.
Hermione was completely stunned. She was watching the game and cheering for the players. She never expected that an iron ball would suddenly fly over.
The two towering stands were about 20 meters apart, and Duran moved.
Boom! The stand where the professors were was shaking, because Duran was using the force to crush all the wooden stands, causing the professors to fall and unable to remain sitting.
Everyone only saw a shadow, and then heard Duran shouting: "Smash to pieces."
Attack spell? But it wasn't.
Duran was the last to arrive, and he was even faster than the high-speed Bludger. He caught up with the Bludger with a rapid jump, and smashed the iron fist made of black iron into iron powder with one punch.
That's right, he smashed the iron ball into powder with one punch. The Gryffindor students were all dumbfounded, and the iron sand in their faces made them sober. They couldn't understand how Duran did it.
Because of Duran's behavior, Quirrell couldn't continue to chant the spell, and Harry gained control of the broom.
"Dad, what happened?" Hermione didn't understand why her father suddenly appeared in front of her, and he was clearly in the professor's seat just now. Although she knew that her father was a visitor from another world, didn't the visitors from another world have to abide by the basic law?
"It's okay, it's just that the Bludger lost control."
"But how did you get here, aren't you a Muggle?" Ron asked stupidly, he couldn't understand what he saw just now.
"It's just a little secret of Muggles. You wizards won't understand."
... Gryffindor students were speechless. Only wizards despised the ignorance of Muggles. Now it was the turn of Muggles to despise the ignorance of wizards.
Duran didn't explain, so the little wizards had to guess by themselves.
The professors saw Duran's exaggerated behavior and became more convinced that he was an elf.
But it was okay. The game was still going on. Harry Potter was chasing the Golden Snitch. Although he didn't have as much flying experience as his seniors, his Nimbus 2000 had better speed and controllability, and good turning ability. With the newborn calf not afraid of the tiger, Harry was half a broom faster than the Slytherin Seeker.
Come on, Harry! Gryffindor students screamed, and the fierce game diverted everyone's attention.
It was about to be caught, but there was still a little bit left. In order to get a longer reach, Harry boldly stood on the broom.
In Quidditch, as long as the Golden Snitch was caught, the game was over. Catching the Golden Snitch would get 150 points, which could basically turn any battle situation around. If the Seeker is not strong enough, the efforts of other players on the team will be wasted. Such a game is actually very cruel and unfair to all players on the team.
Of course, this is an informal game at Hogwarts. In the real league, the total score of each team in multiple games is the winner, which means that in addition to the Golden Snitch, ordinary goals are also very important.
The Golden Snitch only represents 150 points and the duration of a game. In a regular league, in order to gain more points advantage, one side will do everything possible to prevent the opponent's seeker from catching the Golden Snitch, and their own seeker will not catch the Golden Snitch. Some games will even last for several hours or even more than ten hours, because as long as the Golden Snitch is not caught, the game will continue. This is the real charm of Quidditch. It is not simply to catch the Golden Snitch, but to think about strategy and gain more points for your team in the league. Every player is crucial.
Harry fell off the broom. If he did not catch the Golden Snitch, he would be out. All players who left the broom in the game would be out.
Everyone looked at Harry standing on the ground. He seemed to be vomiting.
He vomited and vomited a Golden Snitch. Although he caught the Golden Snitch with his mouth, Gryffindor still won. The 150 points completely reversed the high score obtained by Slytherin's violent play.
At this moment, Harry Potter was the hero of Gryffindor. The youngest seeker at Hogwarts showed his unparalleled talent in his first game.
Maybe he can join the national team, many people thought.
Harry was very happy, because after growing up, he finally accomplished an important thing and was recognized. He was no longer a poor little boy living in the stairwell, he was now Harry Potter of Gryffindor.
"Great Harry~" Ron shouted at the top of his voice: "See, he is my friend."
Hermione was also very happy, clapping and shaking the colorful flags in her hands, shouting twice: "Harry, good job." The honor of Gryffindor is her honor.
Hagrid smiled, he had held Harry when he was very young, and now he has finally become an outstanding boy, he was moved to tears.
This moment belongs to Harry Potter.
