Chapter 136: Permela the Silver Lion
By the time Rob went down to the fifteenth floor, the entire tower had entered a state of first-level security, the jailers in the tower were all mobilized, Sachs and the ghost were blocked on the second floor, and all the entrances and exits had been sealed, but with Flo as a hostage, they should be able to hold out for a while.
Rob didn't pay attention to the situation over there, and there were actually only one and a half people in the entire Oglinch who could really pose a threat to him, among which the prison warden Clowell counted one, the latter was the head of the Second Holy Knights, and at the peak he was a ninth-order master, even if his strength was damaged now, his Excellency the future Super Magister was not sure that he would be able to take down the other party, and he was also the person Rob didn't want to meet,
The remaining half was the deputy warden Permela, who had joined the Holy Knights much earlier and had organized dozens of major pursuits, almost never missed, and was a bit more famous than Clowell.
But Rob knows that Pemela's strength is not as good as Clowell's, and compared with Clowell's kind of comprehensive talent who is balanced in all aspects, Pemela has obvious shortcomings, she is more inclined to command, her own strength is average, her management skills are not very outstanding, and she is a little rigid and conceited.
This is also a common problem of the vast majority of commanders or smart people.
If you don't have confidence in your plan, how can you convince others to carry it out?Pemela's self-confidence or conceit is built up over and over again, but it also develops her superiority attitude, she has a strong desire to control, she likes to be above everyone, and the feeling of seeing the whole picture is over, so even the participants in the plan only reveal a small part of the information to the other party, and sometimes even the people who act with her don't know what her real intentions are.
Her way of doing things has aroused the dissatisfaction of many people, which is why she has achieved great success, but she has never been able to go further and become the head of the Holy Knights.
In short, neither of them is an easy character to deal with, and it's no wonder that Sachs and Ghost need someone to grab their attention and move them out of the room.
The good news for Rob is that although Flo is not well received here, his background in the church is not simple, and once he is kidnapped, whether it is Clowell or Pemela, he will definitely have to find a way to rescue him first.
And this is also the perfect time to leave Ogreench.
The future Ultra Magister carried the girl to the door of Pemela's room, and the road was unimpeded, without encountering a single guard, Rob used the simplest and most brutal method to directly open the latter's door.
Pemela's accommodation is small, slightly smaller than Flo's, and the furniture inside is simple, with almost nothing but a bed, a table, and a bookcase, so it's easy to search.
It took less than a minute for the future Ultra Magister to find the teleportation array hidden under the bed, but Rob took two glances and tossed it aside, without any intention of opening it.
A voice sounded from behind him, "Huh, don't you want to get out of here?"
Rob didn't look back, and said lightly, "I have heard the name of my predecessor for a long time, if the passage connecting to the outside world is really in your room, I believe you should do better, at least not so much that I can flip it out with a flip." ”
"Oh, you seem to know me well. The voice said with interest.
"But you don't know me well enough, and if I were you, I wouldn't be blocking the door with just such a few people. "The future super magister finally turned around, the first thing he saw was a silver-haired but energetic old man, the other party has an extraordinary bearing, a pair of eyes are especially bright, as if to see through your whole person, in terms of age she is older than Mama Teresa, but years of military life and reasonable diet and strict exercise make her body function as if she is still at the age of fifty.
Pemela, once the top of the First Holy Knights, now the deputy warden of Ogreench, and Clowell have been guarding the temple's largest prison in the south, Rob can read her ambition from those eyes, although she is ninety years old, but Pemela does not seem to give up her plans to climb up, unlike others, she is not here to retire, but to make some achievements, as an opportunity to officially enter the upper echelons of the temple.
So she wasn't surprised when she found out that there were intruders in the tower, and when most of them were chasing Sachs and Ghost and rescuing Flo, she quietly returned to the fifteenth floor, and instead gathered people to ambush here.
Because Pemela was convinced that there were not only two invaders this time, the old man threw the bean-sized thing in front of Rob, "It's yours, tsk, I've never liked you magicians, but I have to admit that your imagination and creativity are really good." ”
The miniature magic guide he placed was found by the other party Rob was not too surprised, although this thing is exquisitely made, easy to carry and hide, but what is recorded on it is only some low-level magic after all, and it is still easy for a master of Pemera's level to find.
This is also the reason why Rob did not leave any detection magic outside the latter and Clowell's door, because that would only backfire and make the other party realize that there were other people in the tower, but even so, the miniature magic guide that he hid on the seventh floor was only the size of a soybean was found by the silver-haired old man in front of him,
Should it be said that it really lives up to the name of the silver lion?
It's a pity that Pemela still made a mistake, she brought too few people to besiege Rob, including her There are only four, of course, Pemela is not a pure support, four people are the most suitable number of people she calculated, if there are more people, it is easy to be exposed, the remaining three people are not pulled over casually, but carefully selected, all seventh-order professionals, and two of them are still her old subordinates, and they cooperate with her quite tacitly, plus she presses the formation herself, Pemela feels that it should be foolproof.
Of course, the premise of all this is that the person they meet is not Rob.
Pemela seemed to be very interested in someone and the unconscious girl on his back, and opened her mouth to say something more, but the next moment Rob was already the first to strike.
His Excellency the future Super Magister was most worried that the battle would attract Clowell, so he decided to fight quickly, and as soon as he struck, he no longer had any reservations, and a fire dragon went straight to Pemela, but the latter's reaction was also very fast, and his skills were not reduced, he drew the sword at his waist and cut off the dragon's head with a sword, but the other people around her were not so lucky.
