Chapter 71: Quidditch training

Chapter 71 Quidditch Training

"The biggest wish of the three of them is to form their own circus and then perform tours around the world." Mark smiled and introduced to Albert and others why Mario, Danny and Jack were called the Three Acrobatics. The reason for the group.

"This is a very good ideal." Albert looked at the three of them curiously, then raised his hand and threw the ball towards them.

"This is easy, look!" Mario didn't know where he got a few small **** with cloth strips, and he threw them while walking. The small **** moved up and down like a swimming fish to form a circle. This was much better than the Muggle ones. Tossing the ball is more pleasing to the eye.

 “It’s amazing.” Several people stopped to watch Mario’s performance and couldn’t help but applaud.

“I said that’s enough for you guys.” Charlie shouted at them, “Go to the stadium first.”

Mario sneered at Charlie, threw all the **** into the sky, then opened the pocket of his robe and let all the **** fall into his pocket.

This move once again welcomed him with a burst of applause.

Under Charlie's stern urging, everyone jogged into the Quidditch pitch. They first went to the locker room next to the pitch and put on the protective gear used in the game. It felt a bit like the protective gear used when playing pulleys. , the training that Charlie arranged for Albert was to fly and adapt to flying on a broomstick.

 After all, Albert had just come into contact with a broom and needed to get familiar with using it to fly in the sky.

Most pure-blood wizards will be exposed to flying broomsticks when they are young. George and Fred are the best cases. They both fly well on broomsticks.

 In fact, not just Albert, all newcomers need to learn to fly. They need to adapt to flying first and train the reaction speed of flying on a broomstick.

Albert looked at the broom assigned to him. It was old and worn, with some tail branches sticking out in random directions. It was obvious that it had not been well maintained.

 He raised his foot and stepped on the broom, waiting for Charlie's command.

 “Let’s fly around the field and get into the air!”

 Charlie led the team and started flying around the stadium.

After Albert took off, he found that his broom was a bit like an old bicycle. It flew very slowly and was not easy to control.

However, Charlie was neither fast nor slow, so it was no problem to keep up with the team. The only person in the team lagging behind was Lee Jordan. After all, he has touched a broom a few times and is a complete newcomer. Although his broom riding skills are already very good among newcomers, the problem is that Albert is the comparison!

 There is no harm without comparison!

 This shows that Li Qiaodan is even less able to keep up with the team's flying rhythm.

 “Flying well.”

After flying around the court five times and finishing the warm-up, everyone else was generous with their praises. You must know that Albert is only a first-year student. Being able to keep up with them shows that he has a certain foundation in flying. .

Furthermore, everyone noticed that Albert flew very steadily and turned nimbly. He really didn’t look like he had ridden a broom several times.

 After this circular flight, it is not difficult for everyone to understand why Charlie is optimistic about Albert.

 After finishing flying around the court, the official players began to train, while the new players still need to continue to train their flying abilities. However, this time the difficulty is slightly increased, and two bludgers will cause Charlie to be released from the box. The task of the Weasley twin brothers is to hold the bat and guard the edge of Albert's team, flying with the team while preventing the Bludgers from attacking Albert and others.

Of course, this is actually a simple training for batsmen. Their task is to protect their teammates with the bat in their hands.

Of course, after the Bludger is released, everyone must be more vigilant to avoid being hit by the Bludger. The pressure suddenly increases a lot, but as a qualified Quidditch player, adapting to these pressures is a process that must be experienced. .

 Fortunately, the Bludgers didn't come to trouble them often. George and Fred were both good at knocking away the incoming Bludgers.

"What’s wrong with you?"

Halfway through the flight, Lee Jordan suddenly descended. Albert, who was leading the circle, also noticed it. He lowered his body and quickly landed next to Lee Jordan.

"It's nothing. I suddenly found that I couldn't keep up with everyone's progress and was going to give up." Li Jordan saw clearly that Fred and George had been exposed to brooms very early and could fly better than most people. Albert Te was introduced to brooms at the same time as himself, but it was not without reason that this guy was called a genius by Charlie. He had mastered flying skillfully in just a few times. Although Angelina is not as good at flying as the three of them, she can still fly very well, and she herself is practicing hard.

 What about yourself?

Li Jordan didn’t think he was a bad flyer, but he knew he couldn’t keep up with the pace of these four people. He didn't forget Albert's words. It's impossible for all the dormitories to be filled with Quidditch players...that would make people hate them.

 “I plan to quit.” Li Qiaodan said.

"Actually!" Albert reached out and patted Li Jordan on the shoulder and said, "I never expected to become an official player. Do you know why I stay here?"

 “Why?” Li Qiaodan asked stupidly.

"Because the game requires everyone to play together, so that's interesting." Albert raised his head and smiled at the three people who descended behind him, "Just think of it as training with them, and besides, I actually quite like the feeling of flying. Yes, it has nothing to do with whether or not you play Quidditch."

"You should also like this feeling." Albert smiled at Li Jordan and said, "Okay, let's continue!"

"How does it feel to fly?" Li Jordan murmured. It was undeniable that Albert was right. He did like the feeling of flying on a broomstick, which was also one of the charms of Quidditch.

The flight practice was still going on. Albert didn’t know how long he had been flying. Anyway, he started to let himself go when he was about on the fifteenth lap.

Try to make the broom fly faster and try to make some more difficult moves.

Unfortunately, once this broken broom flies too fast, it will start to tremble, as if it might be dismembered at any time.

"It seems... broken?" Albert found that even if he slowed down, the old broomstick was still trembling. Was it broken by himself?

He didn't hesitate and landed on the ground quickly. If the broomstick was broken, it would not be fun to fall from it. He had not learned the shock-absorbing spell yet.

 “What’s wrong?” George asked in confusion.

“My broom is shaking and feels like it’s going to break down.” Albert said helplessly.

“Maybe the broom is too old. My broom trembles when it flies too high.” Fred looked at George helplessly.

“Mine will be slightly to the left.” George also talked about the broom problem.

 “I won’t fly for the time being.” Albert said, “I plan to take a look at that first.”

He pointed to the book "Quidditch Origins" in the locker room. This was specially borrowed by Charlie for a few people to read. In Charlie's words, as a Quidditch enthusiast, how could he not read it? Where is this book?
