Dynavale and Hogwarts

When they arrived at the training ground and saw that Cedric had arrived, the two immediately stopped fighting and went up to say hello. Just go aside and make preparations. Soon, the team members came one after another.

At the beginning of the training, Cedric announced the change of personnel positions. When Dana saw that everyone was aware of the changes and there were no violent reactions, he knew that the relevant personnel had communicated well. It’s good that the team has weathered this change safely.

Afterwards, Cedric issued a message for the new school year: "Hufflepuff has not won the Quidditch Cup for many years. Everyone still remembers how regretful he was when he parted with Gary, regretting that he had never lifted the Quidditch Cup. Diqi cup.

"I don't want you to have such regrets when you leave the team. I believe everyone in this team is here to win, and after adjustments, you have stayed in your favorite position.

"Now, it's our turn to prove to the teachers and students of Hufflepuff and to the teachers and students of Hogwarts that we are not cowards and that we can do it."

"We can do it" inspired the ambitious team members to shout together. Who doesn't want to prove themselves?

Before the official practice, Dana found Darth Hamil, who was newly selected to the team.

"What position do you want to play?" Dana asked.

"I want to be a chaser. But I will obey the team's arrangements." Das replied with a dull face.

Quite a big picture view. "Then you train with the chasers," Dana said, "I'll train with the batsmen." The two backups decided happily.

Riding on the broom, Dana flew into the sky towards Diego and Charles: "I will practice with you today. Today's training content is" Charles waved the broom: "Don't ask me, I am also a novice, today we all listen Diego’s.”

Diego said with a smile: "I said too much at the beginning, and you may not understand it. Today we will have a chase battle to let you get familiar with the characteristics of this position. I will talk about it later, and you will understand it."

"Okay. What are the rules of the chase?" Dana asked.

"It's very simple. Then I will limit the Bludger's activity area to half the field. Then we chase the Bludger. Hitting the Bludger counts for one point, and hitting someone else with the Bludger adds one point. Finally. The person who accumulates the most points wins.”

"Then let's calculate our own points," Charles asked.

"Yes, everyone should be more conscious," Diego replied.

"Sure." The two nodded.

The three of them came to the other half of the field. Two bludgers were running around in the half. Dana got on his broomstick and chased one of the bludgers. It was very fast, and Dana was not slow either. It was very fast. catch up.

Seeing Charles not far away, he swung the stick hard and hit the Bludger, causing it to hit Charles. Just as he was enjoying himself, a bludger whizzed towards Dana.

He originally wanted to dodge, but then he thought, why should he dodge? He just struggled to catch up with a ball, and now the ball is coming to the goal. If he doesn't swing the bat to hit it, he will miss such a good scoring opportunity.

He raised the stick, twisted his waist, and swung the stick, all in one go, hitting the center of the ball. The Bludger quickly returned along the original path and scored another point.

Slowly, Dana also began to understand the difference in this position: the ball kept flying irregularly, and unless the force was particularly strong and the angle was right, it was actually difficult to hit others;

In other positions, the batter is trying to avoid the flying ball. Instead of avoiding it, the batter has to swing the bat to hit it head-on, and sometimes even chase it.

I also discovered a characteristic of the Bludger: when you chase it, it avoids you; when you don't chase it, it will actively hit you. Especially likes to hit crowded places.

If you want to protect your own players from being harassed by the Bludger, you either have to chase the Bludger all over the field and let it avoid you, which requires extremely high physical fitness and endurance.

Or just fly near your own team members, wait for the ball to hit, and then hit it hard. You have to get close without interfering with the movements of your own team members. In fact, the requirements for flying skills are higher.

Diego is right. Only by playing and experiencing it yourself can you understand this position. Finally, everyone compared the scores, and Diego won without any surprise.

After the first training, Cedric took out the match list and said: "Our first game is against Ravenclaw on the 20th of next month. The players who have adjusted their positions must get familiar with it as soon as possible. From next week, every player will Training three times a week. Disbanded.”

Dana was walking with Ernie and Zacharis when he saw Charles walking towards him and said, "Dana, I have some tactical matters I want to discuss with you."

Ernie and Zacharis left first when they saw this. Dana followed Charles to a corner, feeling a little strange. Why should he talk to the more experienced Diego about tactics? It was a bit strange to talk to a novice like himself. .

"I applied to leave the team for one year, and Cedric agreed. For the sake of the team, he discussed with me that I would continue to train for two more weeks."

Dana was taken aback by Charles' words and blurted out, asking: "Why?"

Charles showed a bitter smile: "My grades have never been very good, and my family has always had some objections to my joining the Quidditch team. This school year is a critical year before the O.W.L. exams. It is related to my future. My family is strongly opposed to my continued stay. In the team, I was advised to focus all my energy and time on exams, so”

Charles was too uncomfortable to speak, but Dana didn't know how to comfort him.

Quidditch is important, but the future is even more important. The contradiction between personal ideals and reality, no matter how I said it, it felt like my back hurt even if I talked about it, so I could only put my hand on his shoulder and give him support.

"So, you don't really want to hit the golfer's position, but" Dana asked after a long silence.

"Yes, it was Cedric who arranged it this way. He thinks it is more conducive to the stability of the team. It can also be considered as a small contribution I can make to the team before I leave the team." As he spoke, his tone became depressed again.

Dana quickly asked again: "So, you want to talk to me?"

"Yes." Charles seemed to have remembered the main purpose of the conversation: "Time is of the essence. Cedric hopes that the person who plays this position will work very hard from now on and will not relax or slack off when I am around. After all, I am very He’s leaving the team soon.”

He expected it well, he was not so concerned about it because of Charles' presence. Okay now, you have to take it seriously.

The original plan was to obtain the consent of the professors of Defense Against the Dark Arts and History of Magic, but the plan did not change quickly. With the addition of Quidditch training, it would be great to be able to complete the preparation of Wolfsbane potion by myself. History of Magic is no longer an extravagant hope. .

"How I want to win the Quidditch trophy." Charles's melancholy voice woke Dana up from his thoughts.

"Then when you return to the team, we will work hard together." These are the most comforting words that Dana can think of.
