Orcs are tall, muscular, with dark green to blue-black skin, menacing features, and protruding fangs, and while they are unquestionably powerful, they are intellectually handicapped, and will only be recruited by armies or adventuring parties in need of a strong fighter.

Urag Gro Shub is an orc, but he is also the caretaker of the Arcane Hall of the Winterhold Mage Academy, and if someone with bad eyes sees him from afar with a white beard, a robe, and a book in his hand. He might be considered a scholar or a mage.

The reason why Urag was able to enter the mage academy is still a joke, when the great collapse did not happen, there were many students in the mage academy, if they were allowed to show their magical strength one by one like now, there would probably be a long queue around the academy at the main entrance, so the previous chief mage made a pioneering move, that is, the written exam.

It stands to reason that all students are given a test paper that only has enough magic to see the words, and then the content of the exam focuses on logical thinking ability and knowledge reserves, which is no problem at all, but no one expected that an orc would pass the written exam.

Unlike other orcs, Ulag has a very high magical affinity since he was a child, but he can't use magic, and if he is emotional or fights, he will trigger a magical rage and attack anyone around him indiscriminately, in order to solve this problem, he studied himself and collected relevant books everywhere for research, and that time he came to the academy for help, but he accidentally passed the entrance exam, and was finally arranged by the helpless chief mage to accumulate books in the library management college for hundreds of years- That's exactly what he wants.

He usually sat behind the library counter with a glass of mead and watched the apprentices who sought knowledge read, and most often said to the new magic apprentices: "The Arcane Hall is my personal plane of annihilation, and if you destroy any book, my magic will tear you to shreds." ”

In fact, nearly a hundred years later, the Urag is already dying, and the only magic he has mastered is still the "elemental rage" that attacks indiscriminately, although I don't know if only hurting people and not hurting books is a significant improvement.

"Uncle Ulag~I found the three books you wanted~" A blonde girl wearing a light gray apprentice's robe, blond and blue-eyed, quietly pushed the door open and walked in, carrying a small bookcase in her hand.

"Let me check." Ulag glanced at the bookcase and nodded slightly, last time she said that she was going to help find an ancient book, but she came back with her bare hands, and he reprimanded her in front of Tovdil, and it seemed to work well.

"Ah, the prophecy of Shalidor, the Prayer of Azula, the children of the sky," Zerapesh opened the bookcase and placed them on the counter.

"Disarm your 'whispers' and 'illusions,'" Urag said as he picked up a book and said to the girl in front of him, "They will conflict with the protective magic of at least seventeen books." ”

"Hmm......" Zerapesh turned his head to look at the empty library except for her, and the original blonde hair and blue eyes turned back into the familiar black hair and black eyes of Urag: "No way, after all, I can't let Ancano see me like this, it's really troublesome for the elves to live too long." ”

When an elf complained about her longevity in front of an orc who was dying of old age, Urag rolled her eyes and decided not to pay attention to the books.

The Children of the Sky is an ordinary ancient book, which simply describes the Nord's ability to "roar" and speculates to be related to the legendary dragon's roar, which was written very early and is rumored to have been written by Taber Septin himself, but due to the author's anonymity, it is only collectible until new evidence is found in archaeology.

The Prayer of Azula is a book of complete magic, the record in the book is the complete prayer for the worship of the demon god Azula, even if it is read silently, it will be equivalent to a formal prayer to Azulla, although the demon god is generally considered to be "good", but it is not certain what the consequences of reading it will be, and it must be kept in a safe place and forbidden for the apprentice to touch it at will.

And "Shalido Prophecy" is Urag's own private commission, Shalido personally founded the academy, and became the first chief mage, many of his magic theories are still regarded as classics, his "Prophecy" series of books is a variety of speculations and suggestions for the future development of magic, Ulag even wondered if he had unknowingly read other "Prophecy" to become what it is now, although this book uses difficult ancient characters and a large number of ancient magic circles and spell models, However, it must be translated and thoroughly understood, and finally handed over to the academy for processing.

"So, is there any news about that giant green ball in these books?" The elven girl tilted her head to look at Urag sorting out the books.

"Green balls? How can it be. The old orc walked over and put away a few books: "You didn't find the stolen book, my head is not enough to remember the contents of all the books in the library." ”

Yesterday, when the tutor of the Department of Change, Tovdil, was teaching in practice, he found a huge green sphere that would rotate constantly and had many ancient characters on the surface under the ruins of Sattar, and summoned several tutors to work together to transfer it from the ruins to the academy, during which it was even rumored by the folklore of Wintercastle that the mage academy was going to destroy the world or something.

When the former elven came to look for records about Sattar, Ulag remembered that the book "Night of Tears", which recorded the famous events of Sattar, was borrowed by an apprentice named Otunn and never returned, during which he was expelled for violating the rules of the hospital, and now he does not know where he is, and as a result, the borrowed book cannot be recovered.

"What? Aren't these books? The elven girl's eyes widened, and her pointed ears twitched twice in surprise.

"They are the 'missing' books of the library, not the 'lost' books," Ulag shook his head: "Otun doesn't know where to run anymore, and this matter is not urgent." ”

"Cut, I'll catch him right away." Zerapesh snorted and turned around to leave the Arcane Hall, while the old orc laughed and returned to sit down behind the counter.

——14:30——

Otun is a blonde, handsome, kind-hearted, well-dressed, and elegantly talker—a crappy mage.

Not only can he turn the stone armor technique that works only for himself into a transfiguration technique that can be used on others, but he can also turn magic magic into dyeing, and even get unrelated magic wrong.

With Sergils Turianus turned into a cow and Nirja turned green and frenzied, Otun turned his healing hand into a berserk spell, and the chief mage fired him on the spot in a rage.

Now, he's being locked up in the dungeons of Fortress Figuero - with a pack of wolves.

This fortress is a common military fortress in Skyrim Province that has been abandoned due to the change of terrain and roads, and it is occupied by a female mage called "The Summoner" by her subordinates, who was originally interested in Otun's appearance and conversation, but locked him up after he messed up the summoning rituals several times.

These mages are all summoners, but they are neither ordinary elemental summoners nor hated necromancers, they focus on summoning all kinds of animal demons, and are currently able to summon wild wolves steadily, and the ultimate goal seems to be to summon the largest animal in Skyrim Province - the mammoth giant, even with Otunn's whims, this idea has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that a troll ran out of the summoning ritual he participated.

"Otun, huh?"

Otun, who was feeling sorry for himself, heard a girl's voice outside the prison door, he immediately tidied up his appearance, walked over quickly and put on a bright smile showing eight teeth: "I am Otunn, can I serve you in anything?" Beautiful lady? ”

Outside the cell door of the "......" was a blonde girl in a mage's bubble, who seemed to blink a little helplessly, and did not say a word.

"Fascinated by my handsome face?" Otun struck another self-confessed chic pose: "But if you get to know me deeply, you will find that my heart is more beautiful." ”

"Well, where are the books you borrowed from Winterhold Academy?" The girl finally spoke, but did not comment on his boasting.

"Books, of course, the books I have chosen are of course very attractive, they have been borrowed by the rulers of this fortress, and if this beautiful lady is willing to release me, I will take you to her." Otunn gestured to the switch outside the cell door.

"This?" The girl turned and pulled a switch.

"No, that's, be careful—" Otunn watched as she pulled the switch on the door that closed the wolves.

Otunn's expected wolves pounced, but the scene of the girl's blood did not appear, and the wolves were more like natural predators, hiding in the cell and huddled together, not daring to go out.

"Uh-huh." The girl flipped the right switch, and then turned to look at Otunn: "For your sake, I will forgive you for what you did before - now, take me to the 'summoner'." ”

Perhaps it was the swaying firelight in the dungeon that made people a little dazzled, and Otun seemed to see the girl's eyes turn into dragon-like vertical pupils for a moment.

"She, no, they're just girls who like animals, please don't hurt them." Otunn said as he led the way for the girl.

Although he hadn't seen the girl at the Academy, O'Tun's instincts told him that she could easily tear down the entire fortress if she wanted to—couldn't it be that some senior mage was disguised as such?

"I'm also curious as to why this ruin is occupied by a group of female summoners," along the way, summoners occasionally drove the animals they controlled to attack, and as a result, all the summons were dispersed, and the summoners were frozen in place, and the Nord girl glanced at Otun obliquely: "But are you sure it's a girl?" Many of them are two years old as you. ”

"Hmm......" Otunn hesitated for a moment, then saw the eyes of the slightly older female summoner who was frozen in place by the human immobilization technique, and immediately said, "Of course." ”

"Huh." The Nord girl rolled her eyes.

"I give you all the treasures I have stored! And it will leave this fortress immediately, and never appear in Skyrim Province again-" The hall at the top of the fortress is a large room with a summoning array and quite "homely", after opening the door, a summoner who looks about the same age as Otunn directly pounced and hugged Otunn: "Please don't hurt him." ”

“…… Then you still keep him in the dungeon. The Nord girl didn't seem to want to say anything, she rummaged around, picked up a book from the shelf, and turned away, leaving only the two men who had a complicated relationship staring at each other.
