Admiral of Hogwarts

037 Shooting practice

Not every time traveler is an expert flyer, at least not Hugo. After shouting out, his broom rolled lazily on the grass like a lazy dog. Fortunately, after calling three or four times, the broom finally jumped into his hand. .

Then Mrs. Hooch showed them how to ride on a broom without falling off their heads. She walked around the group correcting their hand grips. At the same time, he comforted some students who looked very nervous.

For her, this kind of comforting job was not good for her, but the current situation of the students forced him to do it. Although what happened to Neville in the morning was just an accident, it didn't cause much harm. But now, most of these students who were exposed to flying for the first time were still very frightened by this small accident. If everyone could not calm down, the probability of doing it again in the afternoon was not small.

Fortunately, with such extra attention, nothing serious happened in these afternoon classes. Hugo and the other students successfully completed the course. It's just that this was the first class, so they only learned to take off on a broom, land, and slowly fly around the field about one floor above the ground.

In fact, this is what should be learned in the first flying lesson. As for Harry's flying method of diving 50 feet and then pulling up again, it is actually beyond the standard. Even adult wizards cannot do this at least 23%. a little.

By dinner time, the details of the morning flying lesson had spread throughout the school. Even at the long table in Ravenclaw, Hugo heard many students exclaiming about Harry's talent. Although there are people in the school who can do such dangerous moves, but to do it for the first time on a broom is indeed very impressive.

"For humans, Harry's Quidditch talent is indeed very good." Listening to the surrounding voices discussing Harry's flying talent, Veneto whispered into Hugo's ear, "But for our ship For girls, every aircraft carrier or light carrier girl can easily do this the first time she touches a broom."

"What about you?" Hugo asked curiously. It was not surprising to him that those ship girls who were the main force in aviation could do this, but he wanted to know how other ship girls were doing in this regard.

"Of course we, ship girls who are not playing with airplanes, can't touch a broom and do all kinds of tricks in the sky." Veneto frankly admitted his shortcomings. "But our reflexes and physical gifts make it easy for us to surpass human levels once we're trained."

"By the way, I'm going to start our first shooting activity tonight." After finishing the plate of oil-soaked tuna pasta in front of him, Veneto turned to Hugo and said to Hugo as if he had thought of something.

"Tonight?" Hugo's eyes widened with excitement. Veneto and the others said they would teach Hugo how to use firearms on the first day of training. Unfortunately, they had been trained on how to hold a gun correctly several times before. How to use the gun safely and practice with inert training rounds that cannot fire, but failed to fire any real bullets.

So when he heard that he could shoot live ammunition tonight, he immediately became excited, especially since he was a military enthusiast in his previous life but had never fired a firearm due to legal reasons, so tonight he could shoot with real ammunition. The shooting of firearms suddenly excited him, so that all his attention was focused on it.

The reason why I choose to practice shooting during night outings instead of on weekends when I usually do sports is because it is different from physical training that can be done in public. Shooting training must be done secretly away from other people. Therefore, I can only choose nights when no one will notice me.

After finishing their homework in the library as quickly as possible, Hugo and Veneto ran back to the common room together to start the last round of theoretical knowledge about the use of firearms. When the clock reached 9:30 pm, the two people stood up from the sofa and walked out of the common room.

There were still many people active in the common room at this time, but they turned a blind eye to Hugo and Veneto's decision to go out at this time and make it clear that they were going on a night out. For Ravenclaw students, going out for a night out can be considered a routine operation. As long as they don't get caught, everyone thinks it doesn't matter.

After all, the students in Ravenclaw Academy are the kind of people who are relatively self-centered from all aspects, so they also know how not to care about other people's affairs and leave enough space for others.

The two of them originally planned to go out at eight o'clock, but unexpectedly they happened to meet Hermione who was returning from studying in the library and happened to see the note Veneto left in the dormitory. As a result, they were blocked by the two guys who were about to leave. Living.

As for why they left that note, Hugo and the others were a little worried about what they would do if Hermione saw her roommate staying up all night out of worry and reported it to the professor while she was sleeping. But she didn't expect that because the two of them came back early, Hermione felt bored staying alone in the library and came back early, saw the note, and blocked them both.

Fortunately, in order to avoid Hermione's excessive worry, Veneto only talked about his night trip and did not say anything about Hugo himself. So after spending some time, she successfully convinced Hermione.

But in this way, the moment and time of their departure were also greatly pushed back. It wasn't until 9:30 when Hermione went upstairs to the dormitory to sleep that we successfully set off from the common room lounge to the Room of Requirement.

It was now half an hour before the curfew started, and all the lights in the corridor were on. However, because it was not early now, there were not many student activities on the road, let alone the entrance of the Room of Requirement, which was very remote, so they entered the Room of Requirement very smoothly.

"Considering your ability to accept, I will teach you how to shoot three types of firearms today." After entering the response room that turned into a shooting range, Veneto put down three guns on the table that Hugo had practiced for a long time a few days ago. Firearms of time.

"Beretta m1934 pistol, Carcano m1891 rifle and Beretta m1938a submachine gun." Veneto said pointing to these firearms that Hugo had trained with empty guns for a long time. "These guns are better than British guns of the same level, or at least maintain a similar level."

"As for the machine guns, we still need to wait until Friday to borrow her Bren machine gun from Firefly." Veneto spread his hands and said, "Although I hate to admit it, our Italian light machine guns during World War II were really too powerful. It’s terrible, far inferior to the British Bren machine gun.”

"Actually, it's enough to practice three kinds of guns tonight." Looking at the firearms in front of him and the wooden boxes filled with bullets piled beside him, Hugo rubbed his hands excitedly. "Which gun should we start practicing with?"

"Pistol." Veneto picked up the pistol and handed it to Hugo and said, "Because this gun is the most practical for you. In fact, the reason why we did not choose the British pistol before is also very simple. Their Webley The revolver is too big and heavy, and it is inconvenient to carry it on the body and lacks concealment."

"You're right." Hugo said as he looked at the pistol. Considering the dangerous situation in the school this year, the pistol was much more powerful than the magic he could release with his current spellcasting level. "I should really practice how to fight with a pistol."
