Cedric still underestimated the resistance brought to him by flying at high speed. When he straightened up, he couldn't hold the broomstick with one hand, and it was as if he had been hit by a brick and was thrown directly behind him.
The Slytherin Seeker, who just failed to catch the Golden Snitch because of Cedric's interference, was about to reach out to catch the Golden Snitch again, but the huge Cedric smashed towards him, and he didn't want to follow Cedric. Hospitalized together, so he gave up on the Golden Snitch and swerved to avoid it.
Cedric rushed straight to the ground, and everyone in the audience suddenly exclaimed. Hope's heart was also raised, and the armor was about to be triggered.
When Cedric was about to touch the ground, many elastic balls suddenly popped out of his armor and wrapped him into a round ball. After landing, the huge elastic force directly ejected Cedric off the court.
This sudden change caused everyone on the field to stop moving. After reacting, the Hufflepuff players immediately gave up the game and rode their broomsticks to chase Cedric who had bounced away.
Professor Huo Qi also blew the whistle to signal that the game was suspended. Professor Sprout was the first to leave the auditorium, while other professors stayed to appease the rioting students.
Hope stared blankly at the direction of Cedric's bounce. He just increased the elasticity a little, but he didn't expect the elasticity to be so strong.
Just when I was thinking about going to see how Cedric was doing, a white ball suddenly appeared in the sky.
Cedric flew back again, and the white elastic ball fell back onto the court. Professor Huo Qi quickly used a shock-absorbing spell to reduce the falling speed of the elastic ball to prevent it from being bounced away again.
The bouncy ball bounced back and forth on the field for a few times before stopping. As the bouncy ball came to rest, it began to flatten until it retracted into the Quidditch armor, revealing Cedric.
Cedric rubbed his dizzy head and stood up staggeringly. Professor Huo Qi quickly stepped forward to help him. In Professor Huo Qi's disbelieving eyes, Cedric held the Golden Snitch in his arms in a daze. handed it to her.
Professor Huo Qi held up the Golden Snitch and announced: "Digory successfully caught the Golden Snitch. The game is over."
Then Professor Hooch looked at the score. Hufflepuff had 280 points and Slytherin had 260 points. Hufflepuff was ahead of Slytherin by twenty points.
Professor Hooch grabbed Cedric's right hand and raised it high: "Hufflepuff wins."
The whole audience cheered, and in a shocking reversal, Cedric relied on his superb flying skills, boldness and carefulness to successfully catch and win the game. The excited Hufflepuff badger ran down the auditorium and ran towards Cedric.
This was very painful for Hope. When he found that the elasticity of the bouncy ball was a little too high, he felt guilty and wanted to leave. As a result, he was pushed towards Cedric by a swarming Hufflepuff friend.
The little badgers threw Cedric high into the air, and the returning team members rode broomsticks and circled around Cedric. Everyone chanted Cedric's name in unison.
After the cheers, Cedric was sent to the school hospital for examination by Professor Sprout. His experience today was a bit exciting, and Professor Sprout was a little worried.
After Madam Pomfrey checked, Cedric was fine. The elastic ball protected him very well, but it was just flying around and making him feel a little dizzy and nauseous. He just needed a nap.
Unfortunately, although Hufflepuff won the game, the final total score still did not surpass Slytherin. However, due to the high score in this game, Hufflepuff basically locked in second place.
However, everyone still held a celebration banquet for Cedric in the evening. He performed so well. The seniors brought butterbeer from Hogsmeade and a lot of snacks, and asked the kitchen to make some food. .
At the celebration banquet, after the vivid explanations from the players chasing Cedric, everyone knew why Cedric flew back after being ejected.
It turned out that Cedric who flew out was very unfortunate and hit the Whomping Willow tree in Hogwarts. The attacked Whomping Willow was very angry and whipped him back.
Fortunately, there was Professor Hooch's shock-absorbing spell, otherwise Cedric, who flew back, would be bounced to nowhere. Hope listened more and more awkwardly.
But Cedric didn't know that it was because Hope had tampered with him, and the armor protected him very well.
So Cedric solemnly thanked Hope and said that he believed in the armor that Hope gave him so much that he took such a risk to rob the Golden Snitch. The armor's defense was so amazing that even if he was whipped by Liu Lun, he wouldn't be injured at all. No harm, Hope listened more and more guilty.
This also made other players' eyes light up, and they all came to Hope to place orders. The price was set at sixty gold galleons, which was three times more expensive than his defensive bracelets. In the end, Hope could not resist the temptation of gold galleons and accepted everyone's order. But the elasticity cannot be adjusted so high, otherwise it will be terrible for everyone to be bounced into the forbidden forest.
Cedric's set was also taken back and remade by him.
The popularity of the armor was so high that someone spread the word about Hope's ability to order the same type of armor. Members of the Quidditch teams from Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin all came to place orders.
This has kept Hope busy for a while. This armor was made by his own hands. The large number of orders meant that he had no time to study the club's communication problems.
He simplified the production steps of the previous defense bracelet. For the simple parts, all you need to do is to be able to carve. But the armor is not good. It really requires the maker to have alchemy knowledge, so Hope turned his attention to Mateo, who said He refused. With the money he earned before, he bought a lot of wand materials and was busy making wands.
After that, Hope turned her attention to George and Fred. They still had their own set of armors, but they said they wanted to develop prank props.
Finally, Hope added the Quidditch armor as a product to George and Fred's Weasley Joke Shop. He provided the production methods and materials, and George and Fred were responsible for the production. The income was divided in half, and then all was contracted to them. .
This made Hope feel relaxed again. He liked this kind of life where he didn't have to do anything and still made money. In his free time, he could happily study communication issues and adapt novels.
When the novel was almost being adapted, Hopematio asked if there was any publisher he knew who would like to publish his book.
Mateo was not familiar with this aspect, but he knew a few publishing houses, so he introduced the publishing house that had published Harlot, a well-known writer, and a mysterious best-selling author to Hope.
That night, Hope bound part of the novel and wrote a letter to the publisher to see if they thought highly of his novel so that they could reach a cooperation for publication.
But Xue Ya hasn't come back yet, so he has no choice but to borrow the school's public owl.
