Chapter 126: Bait and Trap

A look of despair appeared on Sachs's face, he had already opened all his hole cards, but the other party was not moved at all, and it was too late to regret it.

However, to his surprise, Rob didn't seem to have any plans to do anything to them, but just released a light prison to lock them up with Flo, and Sachs quickly guessed the other party's intentions, and his expression changed.

And then someone spoke, which also confirmed his conjecture.

"Don't even think about leaving Ogreench, I'll put you on the platform on the seventh floor, and the prison will disappear after half a spell, and it's up to you to get out of this tower. ”

Sachs smiled miserably, "It's dawn in less than half an hour, and the guards on the shift will find us, and you plan to use us as bait?"

"That's right. Rob didn't intend to deny that Sachs and Ghost would definitely not be able to return to the fifteenth floor after being discovered by the guards, and if they wanted to survive, there was only one way for them to survive, and that was to flee down, fight their way out, and try to get out before the tower was blocked.

"Then you might as well just kill us. Sachs shook his head and said, "It only takes a few minutes to block the tower, no matter how fast we run, it's useless, not to mention that there are Clowell and Pemela here, and whoever they two come to pursue, we will both die or die." ”

"So I left him to you too. Rob gestured to Flo next to them, who was still stunned, as if he hadn't yet reacted to what was happening

"It seems that we have no choice. Sachs was silent for a while.

It's not for nothing that Rob left Flo to the two of them, it is obvious that he will not do it simply to send Sachs and the ghost to death, but everything is different after adding Flo, no matter how idiotic this guy is, he is nominally a high-level of OGreene, and the background behind him is not simple, it is possible to hold him hostage...... No, it should be said that it will definitely make Clowell and Permela bogey, and therefore give them hope of escaping the tower, but on the other hand, Flo's presence will definitely keep everyone's attention on them, in other words, the two of them understand that they are still Rob's bait.

But since there is a possibility of escape, Sachs will still choose to give it a go.

............

By the time Rob arrived on the sixteenth floor, Lolo had already searched the place, and found that as Pope had said, there was indeed nothing but clutter, and Lolo had also focused on the walls and some imperceptible corners, and had not found any traps or secret rooms from above.

"This floor is about the same size as the fifteenth floor, and we haven't seen any irregular additional buildings at the top of the tower before, so it's almost impossible to have extra space here, could it be that Merlin lied, and Mama Teresa wasn't here?"

"No, if that's the case, then the church wouldn't have been so eager to kill Max when we found him. Rob walked around the sixteenth floor, and sure enough, as Luo Luo said, there was no dark room here.

But I don't know why the future Super Magister always has an awkward feeling, which is not strong, but it means that there is something he didn't notice before.

Rob touched his chin and thought, the sun was getting closer and closer, but the girl didn't rush him.

After about three minutes, the future Ultra Magister finally spoke again, "Height, the height here is not right. ”

"What?"

"I estimated that the height of this stone tower should be between one hundred and two meters and one hundred and three meters, but now the sixteen floors add up to only ninety-eight to ninety-nine meters, which is a few meters less than the height, well, that means that there should be another layer above that is hidden. ”

Although it was not the first time he had seen someone's terrifying observation, this time Luo Luo couldn't help but gasp, is it really fake, and this kind of thing has also been noticed?

The height of the tower is a few meters lower than when observed outside, and it is almost impossible for ordinary people to perceive it, first of all, there is a large deviation in the height of the tower itself when observed with the naked eye, and secondly, there will be errors in the estimation of the height of each floor, and together this error will be even greater, and the difference of a few meters is easy to be ignored, and probably only a monster like Rob can discover the secrets of this layer.

His Excellency the future Ultra Magister looked up and quickly found the location of a suspected keyhole above his head, and Luo Luo took out the two sets of keys that he had taken out of Max's corpse, "It seems that we can only try one by one." ”

"Well, wait a minute. Rob felt that this keyhole was a bit too conspicuous, if it was only to this extent, there was no need for the temple to arrange for people to monitor Max, because whether he was dead or alive, he would sooner or later discover this mechanism above his head, unless...... The future Transcend Magister brought the empty barrel to the side, stepped on it, took a closer look at the keyhole, and then affirmed to the girl, "It's a trap. ”

"How do you tell?"

"Remember our previous analysis, if Mama Teresa lives on it and never shows up, then Max will be responsible for delivering three meals a day to her, assuming this is the mechanism that opens the seventeenth floor, then there is one thing missing from it. ”

"What's that?"

"Scratches, Max has to go in and out of here frequently, food delivery is a very mechanical job, and in the long run, it is impossible for him to concentrate all the time, and every time he accurately inserts the key into the lock hole, there will definitely be scratches near the lock hole. ”

"I see. Luo Luo suddenly realized.

Now that the two sets of keys have been proven to be traps, only the recorder and tobacco remain.

Tobacco is undoubtedly the most suspicious, because Max himself does not smoke, but this time it was Lolo who spoke first, affirmingly, "Tobacco is also a trap." ”

"Why?" Rob was a little surprised, he didn't see anything wrong with the tobacco.

Luo Luo pointed to a bunch of inconspicuous rhizomes mixed in it, "This thing will produce the same smell as tobacco when lit, but it will make people lose strength when inhaled, and it is a specialty of the underground." ”

"Oh?" the future Arch Magister was intrigued, he was sure that he had not seen such a thing in the relevant books before, and it was likely that it had been discovered by the prisoners of OGreenridge in the last few decades, but now was not the time to do research, Rob put the bunch of rhizomes into the vial and put it away closely.

In this case, there is only one last thing left, and the future Super Magister picks up the recorder, is it a mechanism related to music?
