Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

The second braking engine allows the Asterisker to accelerate suddenly in a short period of time, achieving a speed beyond imagination. The design itself is thicker, bigger and thicker than the mainstream broom, and it also encourages players to make physical impacts, as if falling Meteor in general.

The bright black and smooth surface of the whole body make the star catcher more metallic, giving people a strong sensory stimulation and visual impact.

With such a broom, even the pickiest person will not be able to find a problem here.

Although the design concept is different from the mainstream, it can better reflect its special features.

Considering that it was made by a few of them from scratch, it has even more special meaning.

"It's a fantastic broomstick!" said Fred. "It's better than I thought it would be."

"It is simply unparalleled, an epoch-making product comparable to the Firebolt." George said, "I can't wait to see the picture of it being launched on the market. It will definitely be a big success."

"I hope so!" Aiwen carefully observed the Star Reacher, trying to find areas for further improvement, but there was nothing.

"What are we waiting for?" Ginny said, holding the broomstick in her hand, "Don't stand here stupidly, I can't wait to try it, let me say yes, you promised me to experiment first ..."

Several people came to the field outside the castle with the asterisk. Fred and George didn't even attend Professor Flitwick's charm class.

With the help of Quick Skipping Tang, the two of them successfully got the leave slip.

Under everyone's gaze, Ginny sat on the broom and slowly rose...

On the field, Mrs. Hooch was giving riding lessons to the first-year freshmen. Many of them were exposed to broomsticks for the first time, but this did not prevent them from knowing that the best broomstick currently is the Firebolt. There is one.

The freshmen relished talking about it, combining the Firebolt with Harry's past deeds.

As long as someone is willing to ask, Mrs. Huo Qi is also willing to provide professional information about the Firebolt to the freshmen.

"Well, boys, and while I don't mind telling you about Firebolts, don't forget what we're going to do in this lesson," Mrs. Hooch said. "Everyone stand next to a broomstick now. Quick, Quick, hurry up."

The new students return to their brooms, which are all school brooms.

Most of these brooms are worn out and old, with some branches poking out in all directions.

"Put your right hand over the broomstick!" cried Mrs. Hooch, ahead, "and say: Get up!"

A few minutes later, the freshmen were all tremblingly floating a few feet above the ground, each of them was extremely excited, with expressions of fear mixed on their faces, and a few students from pure-blood wizard families showed off to them. The broom flew up.

At this moment, a black broom quickly passed over their heads at an astonishingly fast speed.

Everyone looked up in surprise and saw a beautiful broom that had never been seen before, shining bright black in the sun, which made people feel very high-end at first glance, and the beautiful back hair on the broom Girls kept making difficult movements.

In the amazement of everyone, the broom has no dead angle at 360 degrees at high altitude, high-speed rotating flight, ascent, and dive...

Everyone was stunned, all holding their breath, staring at the girl on the broom.

They had never seen such superb flying skills, even professional Quidditch players could not do it.

They saw her spin a few times in mid-air, then suddenly pick up speed and rise straight into the clouds.

"My God, how can this broom be so fast!"

"Faster than a Firebolt, like the wind!"

"Who is that girl and how did she do it?!"

"Professor, what's the model of that thick black broomstick?"

Mrs. Hooch didn't know how to answer. She had never seen a broomstick like it before.

In fact, even she was shocked, and she didn't seem to be able to react. She just saw Ginny showing fantastic flying skills on this broom that she had never seen before. She knew that this girl flew very well, but she didn't Imagine how great it is.

Ginny's current performance is simply a genius, and this level can only be achieved by those top Quidditch players.

But what made her even more surprised was that the black broomstick under Ginny suddenly exploded at an astonishing speed beyond imagination, which could be compared to the limit speed of the Firebolt.

Ginny activated the accelerator, and she felt that Fei was left behind by herself. Because of the excitement, her heart stopped suddenly, and an invisible magic barrier appeared around the broom, making her feel nothing when riding on the Star Reacher. vibrations of the airflow.

This made her feel dreamlike and unreal, but the exclamation of the crowd below was clearly and unmistakably transmitted.

Ginny kept charging upwards, and suddenly she wanted to try Ronsky's feint.

She's been wanting to try this Quidditch move since seeing it at the Quidditch World Cup last year.

But she has no confidence in her own skills. You must know that Ronsky’s fake moves are claimed to be only possible by the best seekers. They require extremely high flying skills and the ability to control broomsticks, which can be done in the world. There are very few people.

"It should be no problem to have this broom!" Ginny looked down at the black asterisk, making up her mind.

After she passed through the clouds, she turned around and started to descend. It was so fast, it was like jumping out of a plane without a parachute.

There was another burst of exclamation below, and everyone was looking at Ginny.

"Ginny is crazy, what is she doing?!"

"She lost control?"

"No, it's Ronski's fake move!"

"She won't make it..."

"No, she will, you look, my God!"

They saw Ginny falling rapidly from the clouds, streaking across the sky like a shooting star, and when she was close to the ground, she gently lifted up the Star Reacher, and flashed a beautiful arc in front of everyone, leaving only a black The Phantom of...

Chapter 951

Amid a burst of applause and shouts, Ginny controlled the broom to land.

Her face was rosy, she was panting quickly, her expression was excited and excited, the asterisk was better than she imagined, as long as she touched it very lightly, or just had this thought, it would turn, as if it obeyed his thoughts instead of His grip.

She had ridden Harry's Firebolt, and felt that the response of this broom was even more sensitive than that of the Firebolt. Its extremely smooth movements, outstanding acceleration and precision when turning were the performance of the top flying broom.

Not to mention, Zhaixing also has brand-new design concepts such as unparalleled heaviness and secondary acceleration.

This is an epoch-making breakthrough. After riding the Asterisker, the satisfaction brought by the previous brooms will be greatly reduced.

Unsurprisingly, Star Reacher's debut has been surprisingly effective.

Everyone was immersed in Ginny's performance. Mrs. Hooch and all the first-year students gathered around to ask, wanting to know the model of this broomstick. When they knew that it was made by Aiwen and the others, the crowd erupted again. There was a burst of exclamation.

It's not a new product you bought, but a broomstick you made yourself. How is this possible? !

Ginny's performance just now was really amazing. From everyone's point of view, the performance of this broom is only comparable to that of the Firebolt. The little wizard at Hogwarts can actually make a flying broom of the level of the Firebolt. It is a bit scary to say it. .

No one would believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes...

But if this happened to Ivan, there is nothing impossible, and the first-year freshmen will soon realize this.

Through this incident, it will also help them understand Aiwen further.

All in all, the performance of the Star Reacher is satisfactory. Under the admiration and admiration eyes of the first-year students, Ivan, Colin, Fred and George also took a test flight. Their flight process may not be as amazing as Ginny , but also exciting enough.

Especially after Mrs. Huo Qi's test flight, she gave a very high professional evaluation, which made the momentum of Reaching Star quickly reach its peak.

The students gathered around, all whispering excitedly, everyone staring at the broom.

The Star Reacher gets all the attention, the second broom after the Firebolt to receive this honor.

After Alvin allowed the first-year students to use the Asterisker for a test flight, the flight turned into an exclusive demonstration of the Asterisker.

The students all lined up in a row, and under the guidance of Mrs. Huo Qi, they stepped forward one by one...

Everyone was careful, with the look on their faces as if the asterisks were made of glass.

Aiwen really wanted to tell them that there is no need to be so careful. The main body of the broom is not bold and enlarged for no reason. Even if it falls from the sky, the protective magic on the asterisk will be activated. Protect yourself and keep them safe.

This is another place that distinguishes the Asterisk from traditional brooms, focusing on the protection of the rider's body.

This allows you to accelerate without worrying about losing control of the broomstick or having an accident.

Everyone was immersed in the great joy and satisfaction brought by the black broom, and the morning passed quickly.

In the end, the first-year students were still reluctant to part with it, and many of them did not have time to ride the Asterisk.

Ivan told them that they could come to the field at five o'clock tonight to watch the selection of the Gryffindor Quidditch team.

At that time, the asterisk will officially debut.

In addition, until tomorrow, after he leads everyone to familiarize themselves with the campus, they can continue to come here for a test flight, ensuring that everyone can ride the Star Reacher, which makes the freshmen look forward to it.

By the time they were back in the auditorium for lunch, people were still talking about it.

I believe that it won't be long before the entire Hogwarts students will know that Ivan and the others have created an unparalleled new broom.

"Ginny, I met Mrs. Hooch in the corridor just now, and she recommended you to join the Gryffindor team." Angelina strode over with a smile on her face, before Ginny could answer. Continued, "She told me about your performance, it's incredible, you must come to the selection, by the way, she also told me about a new flying broom, what's it called..."

"Asterisk!"

"Yes, that's it!" Angelina said, looking at Aiwen, "Aiwen, Mrs. Hooch said that you made this broom. It is comparable to the Firebolt in terms of performance, and even surpasses it in terms of sensitivity and thickness. , there are still many innovations.”

"Yes, strictly speaking, compared with the mainstream broom, there are a total of 54 innovations." Aiwen said, "If you count the magic involved in the internal main braking device, sensing device, and balancing device, it may involve Hundreds of innovations. In fact, I rebuilt all the core parts with alchemy to make the magic work better..."

Angelina blinked, speechless in shock.

"Anyway, you just have to know it's a great broom!"

"It will be Gryffindor's trump card. We have the Firebolt and the Star Reacher. We will definitely win the Quidditch Cup this year. We will defend it successfully."

"Come on, Angelina, let me introduce you to this broom!" Fred said, "I was involved in the whole process of making it!"

Harry, Ron, and Harry had just walked into the auditorium when they saw this scene.

"Ginny, Angelina wants you to audition?" Ron said in surprise, opening his mouth wide enough to stuff an egg into.

"Yeah, but I'm not interested in goalkeepers," Ginny said hesitantly. "I prefer batsmen."

With her excellent performance in the morning flight, if she participates in the selection, probably no one else will have anything to do...

At least in Ivan's opinion, Ron's flying is not as good as Ginny's.

Obviously, Ron also thought of this, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

"Gryffindor will have a lot of players graduating next year. I think we can recruit a few more substitute players this time." Aiwen said, "In case of any accidents, we won't even have enough players to participate in the competition."

"I'll talk to Angelina." Harry said listlessly, the morning Potions class had consumed a lot of his energy, "So, your morning test flight went smoothly?"

"It went very well. How was your Potions class? Snape didn't make things difficult for you, did he?" Ivan asked.

"It's not as bad as before. I feel a little bit into the mood, and my homework grades aren't too bad." Hermione said, taking her homework out of her schoolbag. It was an O on it, the highest grade, "I Don't expect top grades every time because he graded us on the 0.w.Ls exam scale. To be honest, I think it's very encouraging to pass at this stage, don't you?"

Chapter 952 Trials

"Your paper is very well written, and you have written almost all the uses of moonstone in pharmaceuticals." Aiwen said, looking at Hermione's paper, "And the examples you gave are very instructive. Well, Snape gave you a fair grade."

A little muffled sound escaped Harry's throat, clearly disapproving.

He'd never gotten justice from Snape, never had.

Look at it, his two Potions assignments from the beginning of this semester to the present, one is a zero, and the other is a unique D, which is simply terrible.

"Of course, there will be many changes between now and the exam. We have enough time to improve and improve, but the results we get now are like a starting line, isn't it? We can build on this..." He Min continued.

"Okay, Hermione, we all know you got an O, I'm really happy for it!" Harry said to try to change the subject, he didn't want to continue talking about this topic, let's talk about the performance of picking an asterisk , he has been looking forward to it for a long time!

"But……"

"If you want to know what results we got, just ask!" Ron said angrily. Mrs. Hooch suggested that Ginny participate in the selection of the Quidditch team, which made him worried. He knew Ginny, yes A formidable opponent.

He couldn't help but think, what if he didn't fly as well as Ginny this afternoon?

She can also use asterisks, which means she has no other advantage!

Even if he showed his strength, what if Angelina favored Ginny?

"You know I don't mean that, I just want to say that we still need to work hard, but grades are really important." Hermione said, wrinkling her nose, "If you two are willing to tell me your grades..."

"I got a P!" said Ron, ladling the soup into his bowl. "Are you happy?"

"Well, there's nothing to be ashamed of!" said Fred, with the asterisk in his hand, and George had just returned from parting ways with Angelina. "There's nothing wrong with a healthy and spirited P."

"But!" said Hermione, "P doesn't mean..."

"Bad, yes!" said George, "but still better than D, isn't it? D is bad!"

Feeling a fever run down his face, Harry pretended to be choking on a roll and coughed a few times.

When he recovered, he found that Hermione was still talking about the 0.w.Ls exam grades, and he couldn't help being very frustrated.

It could be seen that Hermione was very interested in this topic.But he didn't want to talk about it, and Harry's attention was immediately drawn to Fred's asterisk, a black broomstick that looked great.

"The highest grade is O for excellent!" Hermione continued, "and then A..."

"No, it's an E!" Fred corrected her, handing the asterisk to Harry and Ron who couldn't wait, "E stands for Exceeding Expectations, and I always feel that George and I deserve an E for every subject because we Coming to the test was more than expected.”
