Chapter 822 I Know Why There Are so Few Wizards?

Snape's tragedy can be simply summed up in one sentence: the poor nerd who only knows about reading is robbed of his girlfriend by the noble and rich football quarterback, so if this is the case, let's beat him in the field that the opponent is best at, Only in this way can James' pride be shattered.

"Maybe I can try it!" Shen Long replied lazily, leaning on the chair. Although he had never played Quidditch before, he thought it would be a joke if he could not play with a few children with his ability.

In terms of flying, at what speed is he riding somersault cloud? And what speed are those kids riding on broomsticks? Regarding the ability to find the Snitch, those children can only see with their eyes, but he can also catch it with his own sense of aura. As long as he is on the stage, how can other children play?

"Have you practiced Quidditch before?" Lucius asked, "We Slytherins haven't won the Quidditch championship for many years. If you can bring us back the trophy, you will definitely become the leader of the whole academy." Heroic! But first-year freshmen are not eligible to join the team."

"No, but when it comes to flying, I believe that in this world, I will not lose to anyone." Shen Long replied confidently, "And this regulation is to worry that the first-year students are not skilled enough to fly. , easy to get injured, right? As long as my flying skills pass the test, there will be no problem."

Since Harry Potter can join the team in the first grade, why can't I, is it because he is the protagonist?

"After you finish your flying lessons, I'll take you to the team to try it out. By the way, what kind of broom do you use?" Lucius Malfoy continued to ask.

"Nimbus 1000." The Nimbus Racing Broom Company was founded in 1967 and launched the Nimbus 1000 in the same year. Think about it until 1991, when Harry Potter entered school, they did not launch the Nimbus 2000. Is it so long? Have they just completed product upgrades? If this is the case, it is a miracle that the magic world has not died out!

However, from an economic point of view, this is not impossible. With such a small population in the wizarding world, there are even fewer people who can use broomsticks. It is no wonder that any new product will take a long time to recover the cost of research and development. Their speed is so slow, after all, the economic foundation is here.

"Wow, can we see it? I've always wanted it, but my family can't bear to buy it for me!" This is a new product that has only been launched for more than three years...well, let's not complain about this.....in The wizarding world, this is indeed a new product. When the Harry Potter story begins, it is almost on the same level as the Firebolt. Not every child has the money to buy it.

"Very good broom, now I have more confidence in your strength!" Lucius Malfoy was once again surprised by Shen Long's strong economic strength.

After chatting for a while, when it was almost time to go to bed, Shen Long took Avery and Murray Saibo back to the dormitory,

They were still thinking about Nimbus One Thousand, "Severus, can I borrow your broom and try flying for a while?"

"No problem, as long as you perform well in the flying class and make sure that there will be no accidents in the Nimbus 1000, I will let you play." Shen Long said generously, he has already planned to accept these two children as younger brothers, so it is natural for the younger brothers Be better, of course, as your own little brother, you have to be disciplined by yourself.

In the original novel, the two seemed to have done something to anger Lily. Things like this are absolutely not allowed to happen. Shen Long is not only good at giving things.

Classes started the next day, and Shen Long met many familiar teachers, such as Professor McGonagall who taught Transfiguration, such as Horace Slughorn, the current head of Slytherin House and Potions teacher, Shen Long especially Pay attention to the latter, because he has a deep knowledge of magic.

It was he who taught Tom Riddle the manufacturing method and in-depth knowledge of Horcruxes. Without Slughorn, maybe there would be no Voldemort in the future.

It's not difficult to get along with him, Slughorn is a bit like a certain kind of teacher that Shen Long hated when he was studying. As a teacher, he turned a blind eye to mediocre students and couldn't even remember their names (such as Ron ); but relatively, he can always notice and discover those students with outstanding talents to join his circle and give them special treatment.

Shen Long will undoubtedly become the best student of this year, and he is a direct descendant of Slytherin House. It is not easy for Slughorn to notice him or not.

This guy is hedonistic and vain in character, he likes to associate with famous people, successful people, important people, he really enjoys the feeling of being able to influence these people, he especially likes material comforts like oak aged mead, pineapple preserves and velvet smoking Shan, as long as he masters these, coupled with Shen Long's experience, I believe he will soon become his favorite student.

In the first potion class, Shen Long won the praise of Slughorn. Shen Long had already studied in advance, and the magic he has mastered now has surpassed most senior students. He has a good talent, coupled with the teaching of Irene Prince, who was born in a potion family, Shen Long's performance is perfect.

Shen Long's performance in Slytherin earned extra points, and the first class brought benefits to the college. The children in Slytherin with him applauded and applauded. Avery and Murray Cyber ​​were the most excited. He kept bragging about Shen Long to the classmates around him, and now they are more and more like younger brothers.

Not only Shen Long, but even Lily also showed a certain talent in this area, and also won Slughorn's appreciation and added points to Gryffindor, which made Lily very happy, and made these It is regarded as Shen Long's credit, because before entering school, Shen Long has been helping her with her homework.

On the other hand, James, Sirius and others don't know if they really don't have this talent, or because Slughorn is the head of Slytherin House, they don't like to listen to his class very much, so they messed up their cauldrons. It was a mess, got scolded by Slughorn several times, and got some points deducted from Gryffindor.

Seeing this scene, Lily was a little unhappy, because the bonus points she had just won for Gryffindor were ruined by James, Sirius and others. No matter who it was, seeing that their efforts were turned into useless efforts by others, Neither will be happy.

When get out of class was over, Shen Long comforted Lily, which made her feel better. Lily felt that compared with the mature and stable Shen Long, James and the others were really boring.

In the afternoon, the flying lesson started. Shen Long glanced at the broom placed on the ground, and muttered to himself, now I know why there are so few wizards.
