It was just a simple matter of destroying some humans and taking away their power of existence. The man had no intention of using some more powerful phosphorus to carry out this task.
The large puppets that he made were basically like using a cannon to kill a mosquito, not to mention that many of those large puppets had difficulty controlling their own bodies.
It is easy to cause the destruction of buildings on a large scale, so he can only consume the power of existence to hinder the actions of those phosphorus particles.
Normally, when those large phosphorus creatures were dispatched, the doll in his arms would go along to carry out the mission, otherwise the result would often be counterproductive.
Since Marian has no intention of taking action, it would be a better idea to let these smaller phosphorus particles go and seize the power of existence.
In comparison, there are no Fire Mist Warriors in the current Misaki City, and those phosphorus particles can unscrupulously seize the power of human existence.
"Dang——! Dang——! Dang——!"
The puppets attacked Shirou Emiya with punches and kicks, but they had no way to break the defense of the armor.
As the lowest level of phosphorus, they cannot use free style and can only carry out the most basic physical attacks.
But even Phosphorus' most basic physical attack method is enough to easily tear off the car door.
Even if there are humans who can move around inside the seal, there is no way to resist their attack.
At this moment, Shirou Emiya was flying between the two phosphorus balls like a ball.
One after another, the sound of impact came from the armor on Emiya Shirou.
Those phosphorus seeds showed no mercy and hit Shirou Emiya with all their might.
If it cannot be repaired, [Haunted by Evil Spirits] may not last long.
"Uh-huh!"
The moment the puppet targeted him, Yuuji Sakai knew that he had been exposed and lying on the ground was definitely not a wise move.
run!
Run!
Run like hell!
"boom--!"
Accompanied by a loud bang, a huge pit appeared in front of Yuji Sakai.
The puppet easily punched through the classroom floor with just one punch.
If Yuuji Sakai hadn't suddenly retreated and punched him, he would probably have died here.
Without any hesitation, driven by fear, Yuuji Sakai suddenly pulled out the bucket that was holding his feet and smashed it hard towards the puppet's head.
"boom--!"
But it was obvious that the strength of an ordinary high school student could not do anything. Such a powerful blow was enough to leave a dent in a young man's head, but it could not even cause a scratch on the surface of the puppet.
Although it couldn't cause any harm, it did clamp the puppet. Perhaps because of its crude workmanship, it was meant to be cannon fodder.
These puppets have no self-awareness and can even be affected by human attacks, causing their bodies to fall heavily to the ground.
In addition, with the hand stuck in the classroom floor, the puppet was unable to get up in a short period of time.
Yuuji Sakai took this opportunity and ran out of the classroom without stopping.
It is impossible to stay in this classroom now, otherwise I will be killed by that puppet.
If, if someone could help me at this time, that would be great.
"Why! Why! I would go through this!"
Yuuji Sakai was running in the corridor, blaming the world madly. He would rather be like his classmates, knowing nothing, just like an ignorant passerby.
If you don’t know whether you will die or not, you won’t have this fear.
But what he didn't know was that at some point, he had already become a glorious torch that would not be distorted by the world, just like the classmates he had seen before.
Chapter 222: To survive!
"boom--!"
The loud noise caused by Rinko attacking Yuuji Sakai instantly attracted all the puppets in the teaching building.
In school, the place with the most humans is the teaching building.
There are a large number of students in a classroom. Compared with the humans scattered disorderly on the streets, it is easier to obtain a large amount of existence power in a short period of time in the school.
Faced with these powerless humans, the puppets were very rude and absorbed the students' power of existence one after another.
Although there is a simpler way, directly killing can also gain the power of existence, but in the absence of the Fire Mist Warrior, it is better to cause less damage to the surrounding environment.
After all, if the news suddenly reports that destruction suddenly occurs in a certain place, the Fire Mist Warriors active outside can be said to be the first to determine that there is a force that can devour human existence nearby.
They will rush here without stopping and find a way to eliminate these dangers to humanity.
Therefore, in most cases, reducing the damage to things can save more of the power of existence.
Unless you have already seen the Fire Mist Warriors and have been discovered, why bother about these things? They are not there to do charity.
“Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!”
The constant friction sound was heard in the silent teaching building. Yuuji Sakai, who was running away in panic, stopped and lowered the sound of his walking.
He didn't expect that there was more than one terrifying puppet like this in the school.
However, it’s not that Yuuji Sakai didn’t think about this aspect, but under such a critical situation, he had neither the time nor the opportunity to think more about the situation.
All thoughts were focused on escaping, rather than calmly thinking about the current situation.
Yuuji Sakai is just an ordinary high school student who has never experienced anything that concerns his life.
If he encountered the legendary robbers, it is impossible for him to think about how to get rid of the robbers and rescue the hostages from them as Shirou Emiya did.
Instead, he was thinking about how he could survive the robbers. Perhaps he would stand up to them when they did something inhumane, but that would not be his first thought. Instead, it was a choice he made after careful consideration and following his heart.
But perhaps this is also the greatness of human beings.
"What to do? What to do? What to do!"
Yuuji Sakai's heart was filled with fear and anxiety. Seeing that the puppet could easily punch through the floor, he knew in his heart that he would never be able to confront those puppets head-on.
If they found him again, a powerless man like him would probably die miserably.
However, just as he was walking on tiptoe.
"Squeak—!"
In the corridor in front of him, a doll with spots all over its body walked out of the classroom.
Wanting to hide one's breath by lowering the sound of one's footsteps is the first thing that any normal person would think of.
After all, the propagation and influence range of sound is extremely wide, and the huge sound can quickly attract the enemy.
However, as puppets that devour the power of existence, in addition to the most basic vision and hearing, they also have the ability to detect the power of existence.
The existence of such a powerful force that can move freely within the seal is already obvious enough. Even if Yuuji Sakai steps lightly, he cannot escape their detection.
Previously in the classroom, all the puppets were busy collecting the power of existence, and Yuuji Sakai's activity range was very small. If the sound had not attracted a puppet, he might not have been discovered by those puppets.
Even those puppets would not choose to devour Yuji Sakai's power of existence.
After all, he himself was a set torch, and those puppets needed to set a new torch after devouring humans.
This is also the reason why when the puppet pushed open the door of the classroom and saw Yuuji Sakai lying on the ground, he did not attack him, but chose to attack other people in the classroom.
After all, Yuuji Sakai is not worth the trouble of those puppets. He swallowed a torch and then set up a new one. Is this a new way of playing?
The power of existence will not increase out of thin air, and it has no meaning other than nesting dolls.
So it was not that Yuuji Sakai hid well enough at that time, but that the puppet itself had no intention of attacking Yuuji Sakai.
But when he moves freely in this red space, even puppets without high intelligence will turn their attacks towards him.
After all, most of those who can move in such a space are enemies. If they are of the same kind, the man who likes dolls will notice them first, and there is no need for these dolls to make judgments on their own.
Even if that man had not appeared at the first moment, these puppets would not have posed a threat to his kind, if there really were such kind of puppets that could be destroyed by such puppets.
The man would not have any ideas. After all, there were various competitive relationships among them. There was no need for such a weak existence to survive. It would be better to transform it into the power of existence and use it for himself.
"not good--!"
Looking at the puppet that suddenly appeared in front of him, Yuuji Sakai had no intention of resisting and immediately turned around and ran in the opposite direction.
As weak humans, there is simply no way we can fight against it.
What's more, Yuuji Sakai had already realized this, and he ran with all his strength without any hesitation.
but----
"Squeak—!"
On the other side of the corridor, the doll whose arm was previously stuck appeared in front of Yuji Sakai again.
"how so--!"
Yuuji Sakai let out a cry of despair.
At this moment, whether in front or behind, Yuuji Sakai was completely surrounded.
As a weak high school student, Yuuji Sakai could not imagine any way to escape from them.
No, there is still a way——
Yuuji Sakai looked at the puppets on both sides in panic and retreated behind him.
"boom--!"
Almost at the same time, the two puppets took a sudden step, and a whirlwind suddenly appeared in the entire scarlet space.
They rushed towards Yuuji Sakai at a speed that no human could achieve.
These puppets are not like the creatures in horror movies. They move very slowly, step by step. Although they bring a strong sense of oppression, they also give humans a chance to escape.
Their purpose has never been to bring a sense of oppression to humans. In such a red world, no humans can see them, so why should they give humans a sense of oppression?
It is enough to have the power to crush humans.
“Never mind! Ah! Ah——!!!”
Yuuji Sakai didn't have any time to hesitate. At that speed, even if he wanted to run, it would be impossible.
Behind him at this moment was an open window.
In order to survive, Yuuji Sakai had no choice.
Yuuji Sakai gritted his teeth, closed his eyes and rolled his body backwards.
He was afraid that he would hesitate because of his fear of heights.
But in such a situation, hesitation will only have one outcome.
You may not be able to survive if you go down, but there is definitely no way to survive if you stay here.
"boom----!"
All that could be heard was an extremely violent collision sound, and the two puppets collided fiercely with each other.
Chapter 223: Sealed off, the end
“Ahem! Ahem!”
The intense pain made Yuji Sakai doubt his life. His entire left arm and left foot were filled with severe pain and he could no longer move.
He seemed to feel that his bones had broken and his brain became fuzzy.
But he couldn't stay here now, he had to escape, he had to flee from this place.
It was a good thing that he was on the third floor at that time. If he was on the fourth floor, he might not have the strength to move when he jumped down and would have become a lamb to be slaughtered.
Fortunately, under the strong desire to survive, Yuji Sakai opened his eyes at the moment he fell backwards, in an extremely panicked manner.
Yuuji Sakai did not hit the ground with his head, and so on.
He left himself one hand and one foot that could move.
This was enough for him to get up from the ground and walk towards the school gate.
Fortunately, there was no conscious Rinko leading the team this time, otherwise Yuuji Sakai would have absolutely no chance of jumping down from the building.
