Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Chapter 46: A duel between cousins ​​on the Quidditch pitch



Unlike the school-wide sensation when Harry was admitted as the youngest Seeker at Hogwarts, the news that Dudley was forced into the Slytherin Quidditch team by Snape never spread.

Dudley initially thought that this was a plot by Flins and Snape to deliberately conceal this information in order to catch Gryffindor off guard, so he cooperated with them and did not tell anyone the news.

But when the Quidditch season officially started on Saturday, when Slytherin's first game against Gryffindor was about to begin, Dudley realized that he had overestimated Frings's intelligence.

"This is unimaginable! Marcus." Slytherin's chaser Adrian Pusey angrily yelled at Frings: "You only informed us in the dressing room just moments before the game. , the seeker needs to be replaced. When we were training before, we always thought that this kid was just a substitute!"

Goalkeeper Miles Bletchley laughed gloatingly, but quickly restrained himself after being glared at by Pousse: "You didn't see the look of that kid Terrence, he was crying like a baby in the common room. Like the girl whose doll was taken away.”

Terrence Higgs was Slytherin's original seeker. I heard he was one of the few players on the Slytherin Quidditch team who respected the rules. Dudley couldn't help but feel sorry for this inexplicable loss of his position. A moment of silence for the poor kid who was mocked by his former teammates.

"Stop arguing, listen to me!" Frings shouted loudly, trying to regain control of the locker room: "Anyway, the seeker position does not need to cooperate with us, it doesn't matter who you replace. Listen, As long as we flatten the opposite side, completely flatten it, there will be no problem, do you understand?"

Dudley finally understood that Frings had no idea of ​​a secret weapon at all. He even hid the news that Dudley was going to play from the team members.

Because Frings felt that he couldn't convince the team members why they made the temporary substitution, he simply didn't say anything. By the time Dudley came on at the start, it had become a fait accompli, and now it was useless for the other team members to object.

Dudley began to understand why Slytherin repeatedly failed in Quidditch matches in the original work. With such a smart man as captain, it was strange that Slytherin could win.

After changing into the green Slytherin uniform, Dudley followed Flins out of the dressing room and walked towards the cheering stadium.

"Today is the opening match of the Quidditch season. The two sides are Gryffindor and Slytherin. I hope Slytherin will understand the rules and commit fewer fouls this year. Uh, I'm sorry, Professor McGonagall, I will be more careful." The commentator of the game was Gryffindor student Li Jordan, and it was obvious that it was difficult for him to be impartial in his commentary.

"Speaking of which, the biggest highlight of the Gryffindor team this year is of course the beautiful Chaser Angelina... er, sorry Professor, it should be Harry Potter, the youngest Seeker in the history of Hogwarts. , and the one he is about to face is an experienced one - hey, no, Slytherin’s starting lineup has changed!”

Li Jordan shouted in surprise: "This is really amazing. Slytherin will temporarily change the seeker from Terrence Higgs to the first-year freshman, Dudley Dursley in this game! And it's even more amazing. What’s amazing is that this first-year student is actually Harry Potter’s cousin!”

The roaring cheers in the entire Quidditch stadium suddenly fell silent, and then an astonishing voice of doubt erupted. The spectators in the auditorium were all whispering to each other about this explosive news.

"Dudley?" Harry, who was holding the Nimbus 2000 in his hand, looked at Dudley in surprise, with a look of disbelief on his face: "You were selected for the Slytherin Quidditch team? You didn't tell me at all. this matter!"

Dudley just shrugged in response. Telling Harry the truth would definitely affect Harry's performance. He didn't want Harry to be isolated by his Gryffindor teammates because of his betrayal.

"I knew this kid would become an enemy one day as a Slytherin."

"It's time for you to reminisce about the beating you got in Diagon Alley, Harry, and don't show any mercy."

The Weasley twins smiled playfully as always and joked, which slightly eased the awkward atmosphere.

Mrs. Hooch stood in the middle of the court as the referee, holding her broomstick.

"Listen, I hope everyone can play the game fairly and honestly." When Mrs. Hooch said this, she glanced at Frings: "And don't affect the game because of your status outside the field." This sentence seemed to be directed at Dudley. Said to Harry.

Dudley saw the "Potter Must Win!" banners flying in the audience. If he had not been forced to go on stage by Snape, he would have been one of the people waving these banners.

"Everyone, please get on your broomsticks."

Dudley lowered his head while riding on the broom and whispered "Gol Hal Dov!" (forced will). He could feel that the broomstick in his hand had established a connection with him.

As Mrs. Hooch blew her silver whistle, a dozen flying broomsticks rose from the ground at the same time and flew into the air.

Dudley knew that unlike Harry, he had no flying talent and relied on the ability to force his will to roar to control his broomstick. Therefore, he needed to make a quick decision, otherwise he might be hit by a Bludger if he delayed for too long. Smash it down.

"Phew!" Dudley ignored the others and flew straight into the sky. He stopped when he felt that almost no one could see the height of his movement clearly.

"TiidKloUl!" (Time delay)

Dudley covered his mouth and quietly used his newly learned time delay to slow down the dragon's roar.

The moment he used the dragon roar, he felt that the surroundings suddenly became quiet. The dozens of flying brooms below that were originally flying quickly became slower than a turtle. He seemed to be stuck in a ball of mud, and it was very difficult to move. .

The effect of the Time Slowing Dragon Roar is to make the user feel that time slows down.But unlike "theworld" in a well-known comic book and the time-stopping ability in some strange little movies from the island country, the time-delay dragon roar not only affects other people, but also the user himself, so Dudley Now I feel that my movements have become very slow.

Moreover, this ability cannot completely stop time, it can only slow down time to a certain extent. Judging from Dudley's current ability, he can only slow down the flow of time to 10% of the original speed at most, with a duration of 16 seconds.

But this was enough for Dudley. In the darkening world of delayed time, Dudley soon found an obvious golden light, and the traces passed by were obviously faster than the surrounding things.

The 16 seconds were up, the time for the dragon's roar ended, and then Dudley immediately turned the angle of his flying broom and flew at full speed in the direction where he had just found the Golden Snitch!
