Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 85: flying lesson

  Chapter 85 Flight Lesson

  Actually, as early as a few days ago, in the common room of Gryffindor, the announcement of flying lessons on Thursday had already been posted.

  Flying has undoubtedly become a hot topic among freshmen this year. Since the announcement was posted, words such as flying and broom can always be heard every day.

   However, this incident did not bring much disturbance to the Gryffindor freshmen.

  After all, everyone knows that Fred, George, and Angelina are the team's backup, training with the official players, and preparing to participate in the selection of official players next year.

Albert and Lee Jordan also occasionally participate in training, and both of them have good flying skills. As for Alia, a witch from a wizard family, she has naturally been exposed to broomsticks since she was a child, and she is not as good at flying as others. General enthusiasm.

   So much so that after the announcement of the flight class was posted, everyone had no special reaction, and even talked about flying much less than other academies.

  There is only one exception. Shanna, who was born in a Muggle family, has never been exposed to broomsticks. She is definitely the most nervous of Gryffindor's freshmen.

  For this reason, she also borrowed a copy of "Tracing the Origin of Quidditch" from the library, hoping to learn some flying skills from the book.

  It's a pity that Shanna doesn't have a dashboard, so she can't directly add some upgrades, and the book can't directly help her understand the ability to ride a broomstick.

"Don't worry, riding a broomstick is not as difficult as you think. Have you ever ridden a bicycle?" Albert actually understood why Shanna was nervous. It's also stressful, and it can be stressful.

  The most important thing is that she lacks confidence in herself. Honestly, confidence is a really important thing.

  Albert's confidence comes from his panel. He knows that he will never fail, and he will try boldly. At worst, he can solve it by adding points to the panel. After all, there is still a lot of experience in the stored experience pool, which is the source of his self-confidence.

   "Riding." Shanna took a deep breath and replied.

   "Riding a broomstick is like riding a bicycle." Albert comforted, "Someone will teach you at the beginning. If you try a few more times, you will definitely learn it."

   "Really?" Shanna asked suspiciously.

   "Really." Albert nodded, "You should have some confidence in yourself."

  Beside Lee Jordan was speechless. Although he himself had never ridden a so-called bicycle, Lee Jordan dared to pat his chest to assure that Albert was fooling others there again.

  You are amazing yourself, but Shanna is not you!

  Afternoon, a few minutes before flying lesson.

   Albert and the Gryffindor students hurried to the class venue, and Gryffindor's flying lessons were taken with the Slytherin students.

   "Why not have flying lessons on the Quidditch pitch?" Fred was puzzled again, and their flying lessons were held on a flat lawn outside the castle.

   "Who knows." Lee Jordan dismissed this, since it's not the same everywhere anyway.

   "Go, don't be late." Angelina urged, as if she couldn't wait for her first flying lesson.

   "Don't worry, there are still five minutes, enough time for you to go there." Albert was not in a hurry at all, and looked up at the lawn in front of him.

  The Slytherins were already there, helping Mrs. Hooch with her broom.

Mrs. Hooch is a short-haired woman with a hooked nose and sharp eagle-like eyes. After riding a broom, it gives people an inexplicable illusion, as if she is an eagle that may swoop down to catch its prey at any time. .

  Flying lessons were pretty much the same as what Charlie taught them.

First, let the broom jump into your hand. Most of the Gryffindor students succeeded after a few tries. Only Shanna was an exception. Her broom didn't move at all. In the end, Shanna just bent down and took the broom in her hand. , causing a burst of laughter.

  Seeing this scene, Mrs. Huo Qi also shook her head imperceptibly.

"Don't worry, there are only a few who can do it easily." Angelina signaled Shanna, who was blushing, to look at the Slytherin students on the opposite side. Their situation was not much better than hers. Those who were still laughing at her just now , are still competing with their own broom.

Then there is how to ride a broomstick and how to hold your hands correctly. Mrs. Hooch walked back and forth among the students to correct everyone's wrong grip. She was surprised by the high level of Gryffindor students, so she gave Gryffind The extra five points made the Slytherin students who were being criticized on the opposite side very dissatisfied.

   Then, it is followed by the practice of lifting off the ground.

  Sanna’s situation was even worse. The broom she was riding was trembling slightly, and she didn’t know if it was her broom shaking or she herself was trembling.

   After finishing the simple tutorial, Mrs. Hooch let the best broomstick riders practice freely. From her eyes, it was natural to see that Albert and the others had already mastered the skills of flying broomsticks.

  Fred watched with pleasure the Slytherin students who were still being taught, left the ground on a broom after George, and began to fly in the sky like a treasure.

   Albert couldn't help shaking his head, he naturally knew that Fred did this to stimulate the Slytherin students opposite.

   After all, the freshmen on the opposite side are far less talented in flying than Gryffindor.

  No way, most people in Gryffindor have already flown in the sky except for Shanna, who was flying poorly and was left behind by Madam Hooch.

   "Actually, the few of us don't need flying lessons at all." George said to Fred, and the two were conducting a cross-spiral flight, which drew applause.

   "Flying well," said Lee Jordan, who didn't go to the Quidditch pitch as often as the Weasley twins. Even if you go with Albert, it's just to enjoy flying on a broom or playing ball with everyone.

   "However, Slytherin students can't do it!" Lee Jordan said in front of the Slytherin students when he landed, and instantly drew a wave of hatred, attracting the glaring glances of a group of little snakes.

   "I'm not wrong."

   "It can only be said that we are far better than them in this respect." Albert flatly stabbed the Slytherin student's chest.

   "Come on, Warrington, overtake Weasley."

  In the sky, a Slytherin student who flew well was following George and Fred. Under the shouts of Zeng Shengxin and his companions below, it turned into a circle competition.

  Fly faster and more stably than anyone else.

  Different from the twins who often train to fly around the court, Warrington of Slytherin was only one section short, and finally failed miserably.

   Afterwards, all three were scolded by Mrs. Hooch, but everyone could see that Fred and George didn't care. They cared more about Warrington who had won Slytherin.

   "Win." Fred announced happily.

   "Isn't this normal?" Albert looked at the two speechlessly. It was impossible for them to lose from the beginning.

   It's just that when this word reached the ears of Slytherin students, I don't know why it was so harsh. What is normal?

   Is it normal for us Slytherins to lose?

  So angry, I really want to beat him up.
