Chapter 42: The Secrets of the Library
Sure enough, as Mrs. Celine said, this storage ring has a very large space, almost nearly 1,000 square meters. With such a large space, it should be completely more than enough to store materials that can be consumed by hundreds of people for half a year. But Baroque can feel that the space of the storage ring is not stable, there is a limit to the weight, if it exceeds a certain weight limit, the space here will collapse, and all the materials will be completely swept away by the spatial turbulence.
But even so, Baroque was thrilled, and being able to see the contents of the storage ring meant that he might be the first orc on the continent to use the storage ring.
Carefully 'checking' the storage ring, I didn't expect that there were a lot of items inside. Several long swords and daggers of different lengths are very sharp, and they are fine at first glance. Dozens of new and luxurious clothes, a lot of food in the food box, stored in the storage ring will never deteriorate, so it is very much, it seems that the family of the original owner of the ring is worried that he will not eat well in the academy, and stuffed him in, all kinds of barbecue, pastries, sausages, and even dozens of bottles of wine, enough for one person to eat and drink for half a year.
But the most important thing was a large wooden box with a box full of coins. It is divided into three compartments, which are gold, silver, and copper. A gold coin is exchanged for a hundred silver coins, and a silver coin is exchanged for a hundred copper coins, which is slightly estimated to be at least three hundred gold coins, which is definitely a huge fortune. You must know that even in the royal capital of Padeya, the average rich family is only worth one or two hundred gold coins. Baroque immediately realized that the guy who had Rak's bastard biting off his finger was of a very noble background, probably either from a royal family, or the heir to a large family or something.
With a slight movement in his heart, Baroque opened his hand, and a handful full of golden coins suddenly appeared in his hand, and sure enough, he was able to use the storage ring!
After being happy, he was puzzled, why was he able to break the ban on the storage ring? Didn't the orc's soul power say that he couldn't use magic items made by humans? After thinking for a long time, he suddenly realized that it might have something to do with the purple lightning. This reminded him of the most unforgettable scene............ The purple thunder and lightning as thick as a bucket slashed at his body, leaving no bones ...... his entire body!
This is a blessing in disguise, and for the first time, Baroque does not scold the lightning in his heart, but thanks him.
Carefully put away the ring, it is not good if it is seen by the original owner.
The door to the library was pushed open, and three women walked in. "Mr. Zachary, please come over here, we have a new student who needs a set of books. A slightly old voice sounded, and Baroque looked up and was surprised to see Lady Celine and Serra, standing next to an old woman, who was talking to the old woman, dressed in a black magician's robe, holding a silver-white staff with a red spar inlaid on the top. There are wrinkles on her face, but she can't hide her noble temperament, and when she was young, she was definitely a charming woman.
Old Zachary smiled and took out a new set of books from a certain shelf, then took a set of writing quill pens and a bottle of ink, and returned to the three women, "Lady Belinda, this is your new student, right? โ
Seira's little face flushed and smiled at the old orc, thanking him for his compliment. The old woman's face was full of smiles, as if she was suppressing her joy: "Haha, Zachary you know, I'm studying magic, and I haven't accepted students for many years, but Sera is really a rare genius. If those idiots in the academy came to teach her, they would definitely ruin such a good student, so I had to teach it myself. โ
Syra, who was praised shyly, hugged Belinda's arm and shook it, causing the old woman to pamper her on the head.
"Mrs. Celine, Miss Cella, are you also reading the book?" Baroque walked over. Cela immediately exclaimed with joy, "Baroque, this is my teacher, Lady Belinda...... Oh, it's Grandma Belinda!" Seeing that the old woman deliberately pretended to be upset, Sera immediately changed her tune.
Belinda stared at Baroque, making his heart beat faster, this old woman's eyes were so deep that he had a feeling of being seen through!
No one would pay attention to an orc, not even Lady Belinda, the great magician, who was only amazed by the handsomeness and strength of the Baroque, and glanced thoughtfully at Lady Celine beside her, as if she was very dissatisfied with Celine accepting a handsome and sturdy orc as an entourage...... Like everyone else, he naturally misunderstood the relationship between the two of them, and thought that this young orc was Celine's **.
"Those idiots in Duolun City can't even test a person's potential, and they almost buried a genius, fortunately Celine brought Sera to Padeya, otherwise who would have known that Sera was actually a rare [Wind and Fire] dual attribute. The old woman scolded as she looked at the textbook that Zachary had prepared for Serra.
Celine saw the confusion on Baroque's face, and explained softly on the side: "Mrs. Belinda re-tested for Cella, but I didn't expect that after Cella held the test crystal of the wind and fire types at the same time, she actually reacted, she is a very rare dual-attribute physique, and her future achievements will shock everyone." When I take you into the palace to-morrow, I will also report to His Majesty, who will surely be glad that his kingdom has produced a powerful magician in the future. โ
"Sister Celine, I haven't started learning magic yet, don't praise me!" said Seira in a low voice, she was too shy to praise!
"Why can't you boast, then praise!" said Belinda, the old woman, "not only to tell the king, but if King Corek does not have a suitable reward for my pupil, his younger sister, hum...... See what face he has come to see me. โ
No wonder Baroque was relieved at once, and at the same time genuinely happy for Serra, the simple and kind little girl was really lucky, she actually became the king's schoolgirl, and it was conceivable that Baron Mirรณ's title would definitely be raised!
Zachary prepared the teaching materials for Sera and handed them to Mrs. Belinda, who was immediately glared at by the old woman, shook her head, turned around with a wry smile, carefully took out a wooden box from a bookcase, and handed it over with some pain: "Here you go, these are the only three Warcraft skin scrolls left this year, and several other Excellency have asked for them several times, but I haven't given them, so I should treat it as a meeting gift for the little girl!"
As the servant and confidant of Dean Butters, the old orc is not only in charge of the important place of the Ministry of Magic in the library, but even controls the distribution of some magic items, and has great power! These high-level monster skin scrolls that can make magic scrolls are leftover from the distribution of items to all the college teachers, but unfortunately Belinda saw it, and asked for it several times but did not give it to her, and today with the excuse of the good student Saila, he finally blackmailed it out of Zachary's hands.
"Mmmm, I'll make a few magic scrolls for Sierra when I go back, okay, let's go. Saira, thank you Grandpa Zachary!"
The little girl said thank you to the old orc sweetly, then took Lady Belinda's arm, waved to Baroque, and walked out of the library.
Madame Celine did not leave, shook her head at Baroque and smiled: "Madame Belinda loves Sera very much, and she is a treasure, and I heard about the magician's break-into the small building last night, and I did not allow Cela to stay with me. From now on, Sera will live in her magic tower!"
Good little girl, Baroque sighed!
"Celine, it's just so time that you're here, let's go clean up the secret room, the master will be back in a few months, and you need to use the secret room. Zarari said to Celine.
Celine nodded, turned to Baroque and said, "Baroque, you go back first, I need to do something here with Mr. Zachary." โ
Baroque knew that there was a secret to hide from himself, after all, he was an orc, which made people feel uneasy!
"Of course, you can take the books in the library with you. โ
Baroque said thank you, went to the bookshelf, held a bunch of animal skin scrolls, then thought about it, and walked to the bookshelf of books about the magic array, and took a few magic array foundations, only then under the stunned gaze of Madame Celine and Zachary, Shi Shiran left, -- the two naturally did not know that Baroque's **-like terrifying memory, all the books as long as they read it once, they can completely remember, he is taking advantage of the rare opportunity to memorize as much useful knowledge as possible.
Celine and Zachary would not have known that Baroque had taken not only the shaman scroll and the magic circle book, but also a magic map that he had accidentally seen on the magic scroll bookshelf next to Zachary had been sneaked into the storage ring...... It's not really a magic map, but a map of the underground network of sewers, drains and water sources throughout the city of Padja............!
Baroque left, Celine and Zachary each took out a key, pushed open a bookshelf, revealing a circular magic array pattern on the ground, inserted the key into each of the two small holes on it, twisted it, each turned a few points on the magic array, and then retreated.
I saw that the magic array seemed to come to life, and the magic pattern turned, and with a sound, the ground gradually cracked and rose, revealing a corridor leading to the underground. ..................
Walking out of the library, walking towards the residence, not far away, I heard a commotion, a group of students under the leadership of a few middle-aged magician instructors, like a great enemy, looked around in the trees and grass in the garden, and even a few teachers of the Douqi Academy, who had always been clear and looked down on anyone, also led a group of students to search in another direction. Somehow, Baroque had a bad premonition in his heart...... His hunch had always been very good! Sure enough......
"There's an orc here. "Someone saw the Baroque and shouted. Everyone's attention was grabbed, and they all gathered around. A magician who seemed to be the leader shouted with a calm face: "Whose slave are you, these scrolls from there, say!"
The orc walked swaggering around the magic academy, and he was holding a large pile of scrolls and books, which made it strange that Baroque did not want to provoke such a typical group of racists, so he told a little lie and said, "I am Lady Celine's entourage, and Madame asked me to help her take her back to her residence." โ
"Oh, I see, you're Madame Celine's... That one... Hey....... A very meaningful voice with a hint of evil laughter sounded: "I heard that the Marquis of Delta, who was annoyed and angry, sent Turki and his stupid companion to kill you last night, and was actually captured by you and Celine, killing and wounding one, hehe, you really have a tacit understanding......" The people around were immediately relieved, and they all showed knowing smiles, looking at the orcs in front of them, they all showed uncontrollable jealousy............ Celine's stunner beauty is actually cheaper than an orc, damn it, how nice it would be if it were me...... That's what everyone thinks!
Baroque was silent, he knew that for these people with dirty hearts, it was better to explain than to cover up, and it was better not to speak.
In this way, knowing the identity of the Baroque, people will not embarrass him!"Go back quickly, but don't let the beautiful lady wait." In other words, Celine actually wants to see these orc shaman's scrolls, do you want to have a deeper understanding of the habits of orcs? haha......"
Amid the laughter, Baroque slowly left, returned to his quarters, and closed the door. Lark probed his head out of the corner, his face was pitiful, his hind legs were limping, and he was injured!
Sure enough, Baroque smiled bitterly, it was really you who made a fuss!
