Chapter 7: The Weak Can Fight
While Lohia was anxiously thinking about what to do, the two masters were equally anxious.
After all, Lohia is the only guarantee for the two, and without her, the two will have no security guarantee whether they continue the Holy Grail War or flee back to Japan.
Mina Tosaka has finally reacted now, and used healing magic on Lohia, but she herself is not the master of Lohia, and the effect of the healing technique is slightly resisted by the Heroic Spirit itself, and the effect is not good. Lohia felt her wound healing, and nodded silently to her in gratitude.
Tsukahara Mingshi's inferior magic ability prevented him from being a help to Rohia, so he could only watch calmly from the side.
The more he was in crisis, the calmer he became, and this almost curse-like talent made his brain run fast.
It's a pity that in the current situation, his knowledge is basically useless.
Watching the insect-like monster with a sturdy carapace sink into the ground, Tsukahara could only think of monsters from other anime manga.
Generally speaking...... How do monsters that sneak on the ground live?
Like, vaguely remembering, those monsters are saying that because there is no light underground, the eyes are meaningless, so they have degenerated?
After all, the working principle of the eye is to read and transmit the reflection of light on the object, if you are in a place where the sun does not shine, the eye will lose its effect, naturally, the organ without action will gradually degenerate, and finally even disappear.
For example, many deep-sea fish have degraded their eyes, and their eyesight can be described as "basically none". This bug is probably the same, right?
But...... This begs another question......
What did it use to pursue Lohia?
Here I have to admire the author of Japanese comics, who can always come up with all kinds of strange things, and under the general sense of whimsy, Tsukahara Mingshi's ideas have also been greatly expanded.
Sure enough, the more common ...... Deep-sea fish don't see much light, but as long as something swims, it will inevitably cause fluctuations in the fluid.
However, this can be ignored here, after all, few creatures can shake the earth to that extent by walking.
Secondly, it's heat source sensing or sound wave sensing, right?
These two are more common, if it's a heat source, in the information Carl gave himself, it seems to have been mentioned that the heat emitted by the magician will increase when he uses magic, that is, [infrared induction] will be more obvious, and Emiya Kiritsugu, who was specially marked by Carl, has used this method to lock on to the enemy.
Because it is a key learning content, Tsukahara still has an impression of it.
If it is the thermal energy that can read the surface through the earth......
No, there are too many conditions......
If Tsukahara remembers correctly, there is this kind of plot in the manga he himself has read, where a person discharges a heat-sensing robot to chase down the protagonist group, and as a result, the protagonist sets a fire, and the result disappears in the eyes of the robot.
As a weapon to hunt down enemies, an inaccurate exploration system is too child's play for pursuers.
If it's a sound exploration, what sound does it respond to? Is the sound strong or weak, or is it a sound of a particular frequency?
Or is it the kind of [Life Exploration] and [Magic Exploration] that cannot be explained by science?
It seems like...... Who? In the document that Carl gave himself, near the page of Emiya Kiritsugu, the magic dress of a certain golden ** magician seemed to be blessed with a similar perceptual magic, forcibly allowing inanimate mercury to search......
It seems like...... Is it the sound of a heartbeat?
Well...... This makes it possible.
After all, when it comes to living things, everyone has a heartbeat.
If it can hear and understand the sound of a heartbeat, it can use thermal energy sensing to determine whether it is a human body or not...... Then, use the sound of footsteps to track the enemy's location......
Not...... Sure enough, should they be tested one by one?
Tsukahara didn't dare to speak, for fear that his voice would be used as a condition for the bug's detection.
He held his breath and sent a message to Lohia in his heart.
(Archer, can you make a fire?)
(Fire?can...... Yes...... Do you mean to say that it is tested itemized in search mode?)
It is worthy of Lohia, the heroic spirit of the spy, who is very fast in terms of reaction speed, Tsukahara Mingshi just prompted such a sentence, and she immediately reflected it.
After all, for a spy, a flexible mind is the real weapon.
Indeed, in that case, there is no need to defeat this bug, just flee to a place where it can't be tracked.
It's not the best time to defeat the enemy with violence. As long as you can destroy the enemy's purpose, you don't have to defeat the enemy, right?
In her heart, Lohia secretly blamed herself for being too patterned: as long as this bug didn't follow her, wouldn't it be good. For this reason, it would be good to determine its tracking conditions, and then take the opportunity to escape? As long as this strange insect can't catch the two of them, don't worry about it for the time being, right?
Although, there may be other victims, but ...... Now is not the time to think about that. Lohiya needs a powerful weapon. At the very least, from Leonardo da Vinci's workshop, get your own oak bow in hand before talking about other questions.
She roasted game for Tsukahara before, so naturally there was a fire. Among the rangers, there are many people who carry lighters with them. Lohia thought for a moment, broke a branch from the tree beside her, and said sorry guiltily, and lit the flame of the lighter on the leaf.
For Robin Hood, who loves the forest, this kind of harm to trees is definitely not a good thing.
Lit the branch and threw it down, and Lohia on the branch watched quietly.
As a result, until the flame was extinguished, there was still no response.
Is the target too small?
Rohia looked at Tsukahara Mingshi, his face could not be seen clearly through the layers of forests, but the voice came from the magic circuit that the two were closely connected.
(Lohia, are you trying to light a bonfire and you're nearby?)
(Well, I'll try, though...... )
(It's okay, the accelerant is my clothes.) )
Tsukahara Mingshi decisively took off his coat, and inside was a close-fitting white vest, and the yellow skin that extended out was obviously different from the color of the neck, wrists and other places. This is a common problem of many boys, if you don't pay attention to applying sunscreen, slowly, the places that can't be exposed to the sun will be distinct from the face, arms, etc.
Lohia took the clothes he had thrown at him, and she jumped like a nimble monkey in the branches of the forest, looking for dead branches that were beginning to dry up in the trees, and in a short time she came back with a handful. Wrapping them in Tsukahara Akishi's clothes, Lohia lit it.
The huge mass of clothes burned a beautiful orange, and Lohiya was so engrossed in it that she poked it with a thick twig as if she were holding a huge torch in her hand.
She stood quietly on the ground, and if she failed, then ......
She stood for about 1 minute. Which monster worm still hasn't attacked again.
Probably, he ignored her.
According to Tsukahara Mingshi's speculation, if it is a single tracking, it is easy to hunt down targets other than humans.
For example, rabbits in the forest or something, everyone has a heartbeat, and they all walk on the ground. If you say foot sounds, then there are also heavy creatures such as dogs and deer. Sure enough, all Tsukahara could think of was heat.
If any bug can track heat energy, just confirm the approximate range of heat energy of a human. In this case, suddenly there is a high heat something, which destroys the human-range thermal energy induction, and for this bug, it will become: Does the search target have a heartbeat-" Yes, then the thermal energy response of the search target is not the scale of a human - "No", then give up tracking. This pattern.
Tsukahara Mingshi suddenly felt that it was great that he was an otaku, and it was really good that Japan was the most developed country in the animation and light industry. Because of the fierce competition in the industry, if you want to get ahead, you must use more whimsical ideas to win, and the result is that the unnecessary knowledge base and creativity of young people are greatly enriched.
Tsukahara Mingshi helped Mina Tosaka, and the two jumped down from the tree together, and Lohia hurried over, and the three of them gathered around to poke the hot clothes ball, using this irregular, impossible to be a fireball of human thermal energy response spectrum, and the three of them together turned themselves into [monsters].
Which bug received the order to hunt humans and heroic spirits, and if you chase magic, it is too easy to be led away by heroic spirits, and you can't chase the heroic spirits to find the master, Tsukahara Mingshi's analysis is very precise.
As the three of them walked, Lohia secretly admired.
Ordinary people get flustered at this time, right? As a result, Tsukahara didn't.
In fact, this method of exploring the enemy's attack pattern in stages was first thought of by Tsukahara Mingshi.
Is this something that the average person can do?
Calm, too calm. There was something strange about his calmness.
This was Lohia's first reaction.
It's weird, this guy ......
Can anyone really do that? so calmly analyze the enemy's patterns and react so quickly?
Be...... Is it talented? or ...... What about the result of Carl's magic manipulation?
Luo Xiya didn't know, the three of them silently stepped on small steps, under the cover of the flames, and slowly moved, sure enough, which strange insect did not continue to chase, and walked out seven or eight hundred meters all the way, obviously for high school students, this is not a long distance at all, both of them are actually sweating, and the psychological burden is too heavy.
Forget it, it's good that the Master can regain his energy.
"Master, I haven't officially answered you yet, have I?"
Rohia's voice came, and Tsukahara Mingshi's clothes were almost burned, and the branches wrapped inside were still making a final beep and burning sound.
"As in the pact between us, you are my master, and as long as you have the will to fight, I will be your bow. ”
Archer Lohia said.
She would rather choose her current lord than the conspirator Carl Winster.
Even if he's a good old man. Even if he can't achieve the final victory. Even if his wishes are ridiculous and not practical.
However, none of this can be changed, and he is a good master.
Lohia wanted to sacrifice her bow and arrows for him, for the Holy Grail War he won.
Hopefully, he can win.
She is not a knight, there is no such thing as a knighthood.
For Robin Hood, it is more important to conform to the truth than to justice.
If he really wanted to use the Holy Grail to restore the ruined city to its original state, Lohia felt that this wish was more worthy than his own small desire to die as Robin Hood.
It's great that he's able to rekindle his fighting spirit.
