［Your video shocked Harry Potter, reward, Flying Talent (Top Tier)］
Zhang Dong's original flying talent was already similar to Zhang Qiu's. Now it has improved even further. Not to brag, but Zhang Dong feels his flying talent can absolutely make it into the National Team!
Of course, he wasn't really interested in it.
［Your video shocked Madam Hooch, Wood, Angelina... the Gryffindor team, and Marcus, Lawrence... the Slytherin team, you have received the reward: Magic Broom: World Tree Spirit］
Magic broom? What is that?
Something like the Firebolt 2000?
Zhang Dong subconsciously looked at his newly acquired reward. It was more like a branch than a broom, but its head wasn't straw or any other plant; it was a bunch of tender green leaves.
World Tree Spirit
Magic Enhancement +80%
Spell Effect +20%
Final Damage +25%
Movement Speed +3% (3% faster than Firebolt)
When attacked, there is a 20% chance to randomly summon one of three spirits
Life Recovery Spirit: HP recovers 20%
Mana Recovery Spirit: MP recovers 20%
Comprehensive Recovery Spirit: MP + HP recovers 10% each
“This... this is... the World Tree Spirit from DNF? But it seems to be pretty much integrated into this world.”
Not to mention, Zhang Dong's magic power had already increased by 90% thanks to various rewards. It was almost equivalent to the magic power of two young wizards, similar to an ordinary adult wizard. If he equips something like this now, he's not as good as McGonagall or Snape, but he's at least as good as Quirrell.
Not to mention other bonuses. This thing is almost as good as the Elder Wand.
In other words, this is his new wand?
Zhang Dong's current wand was bought from Ollivanders. It was nine and a half inches, birch wood, Phoenix feather, and it felt very smooth to use. But compared to this broom, the gap is too big.
It's just...
“In a wizard duel, everyone else has a wand, and I'm holding a broom. Isn't that too ungraceful?”
Forget it, what's the use of grace? Can't you just be strong?
Thinking this, Zhang Dong and the Gryffindors, who were already celebrating in advance, returned to their dormitory.
“Harry, you were amazing! You are absolutely the best Seeker Gryffindor has ever had!” Ron couldn’t help but praise Harry as soon as he came back. While it was a bit of an exaggeration, this time, neither Seamus nor Neville denied it.
After all, with the talent Harry showed today, even if he didn’t join the National Team, he would definitely be way stronger than the young wizards in the academy.
Harry said modestly, “Actually, not really. I still have a long way to go.”
Harry was still quite humble. After all, the competition hadn’t started yet. How could he put himself on such a high pedestal?
Ron patted Harry on the shoulder and said with full confidence, “Don’t worry, you will be after tomorrow. Just be careful of those Slytherins, they are really sneaky.”
“Yeah.” Harry nodded. He was in a good mood. After all, without Snape casting spells at him, there was no reason for him to lose tomorrow.
Zhang Dong smiled from the side. Happy, huh? But it's no use.
Even though he won the preliminary match tomorrow, Harry fainted for a week because of the Philosopher’s Stone incident. He missed the finals, and Gryffindor ended up losing to Ravenclaw because they didn't have a Seeker. Ravenclaw won a rare championship.
“Hey? Neville, what are you doing? Doing something bad? Let me in!” Ron looked curiously at Neville.
Neville started packing up stuff as soon as he came back. Then, he was muttering to himself with his back to them, giving the impression that he was up to something bad.
Hearing Ron’s words, Neville’s body trembled, and he quickly said, “No! Not doing anything bad! I’m just preparing for Christmas presents!”
Gifts?
I remember now.
Christmas, the European New Year. On this day, people exchange candy and gifts. In the wizarding world, because of owls, you have to prepare more gifts and send them out in advance to avoid missing the day.
“Gifts! Are there any for me?” Ron looked at Neville curiously.
“Of course!” Neville nodded. “I prepared for Harry, you, Seamus, and Zhang Dong.”
“What is it? Can I take a look?”
Seeing Ron’s curious look, Neville quickly hid the things behind his back and said:
“No! It's a secret!”
“Okay.” Ron sighed a little disappointedly. But he started thinking about what gifts he needed to prepare.
Although the Weasley family wasn’t well-off, Christmas gifts were mainly about the thought. Whether they were expensive or not was secondary.
Zhang Dong also started thinking.
In the past, he didn’t really pay attention to Christmas. After all, his family was all Chinese, and Christmas wasn't very important to them.
But, you have to adapt to the local customs. If people give you gifts on this day, wouldn’t it be disrespectful if you didn’t return the favor?
Thinking of this, Zhang Dong started thinking about this matter.
“Ron, I'll get him a new cage, Scabbers needs a new home. Neville too, his little frog needs its own home. Seamus... hair growth tonic would be good. Harry is simple, he'll be happy with any gift.”
Gifts for boys are quite simple. It's the girls...
“Hermione... I just bought a copy of ‘The Monster Book of Monsters’. Oh no, maybe Hermione is so obsessed with Lockhart next year because of me. That’s just too unfair. As for Zhang Qiu...”
Zhang Dong thought for a moment, and suddenly, his eyes fell on the bottom of the bed where he had placed his Firebolt 2000.
“I already have the World Tree Spirit, the Firebolt 2000 is useless now. Since Zhang Qiu just became Seeker, I’ll just give it to her.”
Thinking this, Zhang Dong also smiled with satisfaction.
I just don't know if this counts as supporting the enemy indirectly. But considering that Gryffindor lost to Ravenclaw anyway, Zhang Dong had no psychological burden.
It’s a loss either way. What’s the difference?
