stringpuppet - A marionette, a puppet body manipulated from above or with a thin wire attached to a controller. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The corpses of humans are like puppets, manipulated by unknown undead spirits, like hungry wolves, to attack the traversers they encounter nearby.

Hiiragi has nine abilities left, and there is no self-awareness in the face of these...... No, it's a 'puppet' that doesn't have the original consciousness and only leaves the killing intent brought by the possession of the undead, and Hiiragi has no intention of using their abilities, because they seem to be able to only use physical attacks.

However, speculation is always speculation, and Hiiragi, who was originally going to save the number of times he used his ability, was also forced to use his ability in the next moment, and that was because the possessed traverser who was in front of Hiiragi launched an attack, not a physical attack, but an iron spike that wanted to use control to penetrate Hiiragi's body.

"Can you actually use the ability?!"

After the corpses of the traversers were possessed, the undead did not just manipulate their corpses, but also used the abilities that the traversers originally possessed.

In fact, the most troublesome thing is not that they can use abilities, Hiiragi is also worried about the number of times they can use abilities; After all, these traversers have long since died, and it is the undead who are controlling them at the moment, and the undead are not bound by the rules of the traverser, so does it mean that they can use their abilities infinitely? Hiiragi also imagined himself being manipulated, and I am afraid that none of the people present can stop the ability from being used many times and have unlimited energy......

Alice may be able to do it, but only if she can live to include herself in her abilities.

Hiiragi didn't stay where he was, and as he headed towards the rendezvous point, he adjusted his position while using his abilities, trying to get a good view in the sandstorm as much as possible to prevent an enemy from suddenly attacking him.

"It's the undead!!! They are all possessed! Damn the guys! Why can you use abilities? ”

"Unlimited use capabilities! I just saw it!! My companion has only three chances left to use his abilities...... But now, for the fourth time, ......!! ”

There are traversers who roar in the sandstorm with poor visibility, fleeing from the possessed traversers in search of a way out and shelter, but their purpose is clearly not easily achieved.

"Wow!!!!!!! Roar!!! ”

Hiiragi also heard such a cry when he went around to an intersection.

Many of the nearby ruins were hidden by sandstorms, leaving only vague outlines, and in this environment, Hiiragi also saw a clear figure, like the figure of a standing minotaur. And the other party also caught Hiiragi's position, and the whole person, or the whole cow, pounced towards Hiiragi.

"Damn it!"

Hiiragi, who didn't want to waste time, also used his ability to cut forward, and the ability to be released split in two like a blade of light that blocked everything, and the blood spilled in the air, and soon disappeared, and then saw a white mist flee from his corpse.

Sure enough, they were possessed by the undead, and after these undead possessed them, they gave the corpse a second 'life', but this life, just like they were alive, would 'die' once they received a fatal blow, and it was not a threat to Hiiragi.

"Protect the boss!"

"Let the adults go first! Bastard! Are they all idiots?! ”

"Don't be soft! Those are no longer companions! It's an enemy possessed by the undead! ”

Hiiragi also saw what was ahead of him through his infrared glasses.

The army that had fled in front of Hiiragi not long ago had encountered their original companions, including those killed by Hiiragiya and those killed by other traversers, and the corpses in uniform had been possessed and attacked them.

The muzzle sparks continued to flicker, and the human screams followed, and the undead possessed army had a certain advantage, because they had no pain or emotion, and they did not flinch.

On the left is the human team, on the right is the army possessed by the undead, and while the two sides collided, Kuba saw a special figure inside; The figure was shorter than the tall traversers on the left, and it was also very thin, and it seemed that Hiiragi had guessed correctly before, that it was a woman.

That woman must be the savior who saved everyone in Group J before, but now she is Hiiragiya's enemy, and now is an opportunity......

Hiiragi also lowered his body and approached the past, and the undead possessed monsters around him were all cleared out by those 'soldiers' first, leaving only the original undead possessed companions who confronted him head-on.

As he was moving forward, Hiiragi noticed that the sandstorm that had disturbed his vision began to weaken, almost like a passing rain; Came like lightning and disappeared like the wind......

The thin curtain of flying sand gradually disappeared, and Hiiragi and the other people were easily recognized, so Hiiragi also stopped and ran to the side of the ruins.

Hiiragi can indeed be directly on now, but Hiiragi also wants to save the number of times he uses his ability, and there are only eight times left at present, so if he continues to use it, in case he encounters a strong enemy in the back, wouldn't it be quite bad if there are few times of ability use left?

In order not to be discovered, Hiiragi also hid behind and waited for the change, and the 'soldiers' of Group J also began to retreat, doing their best to protect what they called 'adults'.

It's obviously a savior-like character who saved everyone in Group J, but at this time, he has no combat effectiveness? Or is there another reason?

"Go to the place that has been investigated beforehand! Throw all the grenades over!! ”

"The other side also threw it!"

"Say it sooner, bastard!!"

The sound of the explosion shook the eardrums, and the blood veins in the whole body swelled, the blood flowed faster, and the fire and explosions filled the ruined city.

The sandstorm began to disappear, and Hiiragi took off his infrared glasses to see his surroundings clearly, but he still hung them on his waist to prevent him from having to.

Hiiragi also moved with the group of moving 'soldiers', and those in Group J worked well this time, relying on grenades and non-stop strafing to stop the pursuit of their undead teammates, and continued to move by moonlight.

Relying on the light of the moon, Hiiragi finally saw the appearance of the adult.

How to say...... It doesn't look like a fight-ready character at all, which reminds Hiiragi of Hetty's cute boy, and the two have similarities.

Because...... The 'adult' that the 'soldiers' were protecting, was a young woman in a sailor's suit, and her shoulder-length short hair made her look like the little girl next door, not threatening.

Are you going to kill that kind of person just now? Hiiragi also muttered in his heart, but if he hesitated, it would trigger a bad chain reaction, so Hiiragi did not intend to give up the idea of killing the young woman in the sailor suit.

"All Strafing !!!"

A 'soldier' commanded the troops, Hiiragi also saw the corpses possessed by the undead fall one after another, and some of the traversers who used their abilities could not withstand the volley of a large number of guns, except for the strange traversers with steel shells, the enemies in this area were almost all eliminated.

"There's one enemy left! Possess a steel shell! ”

"Is it hardening?!"

"There are so many people who like this ability! How many times have I seen it! ”

The battle here had just ended temporarily, and not far away there was also a burst of fire, and a huge Shikigami rose from the ground, smashing into the ground with a flaming fist, causing the ground to shake.

The Shikigami ...... It should be Yuki Sakurashita and Yuki Shizhu, the two siblings, Hiiragi is also certain......

"Hurry up."

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

At this time, the 'adults' protected by the 'soldiers' spoke.

"I'm going to fight."

"Wait! My lord! Let's do it! ”

"Yes, boss! If you fight, we could all be killed! ”

The sailor-suited girl was stopped by the 'soldier', but she pushed away the man in front of her and walked forward.

"Hmm! Hurry up and flash people! The boss is about to start fighting! ”

"The boss is going to use his abilities!"

The confused Hiiragi didn't know why the 'soldiers' had escaped, so he focused on the sailor-suited girl who had been protected from the beginning.

"Let's get started."

Then, the sailor-suited girl rushed towards the steel-clad traverser.

Since the traverser was possessed by the undead, he could only use abilities and attacks and did not have any combat skills, and in the face of the enemy coming from the front, he simply threw his fists.

"Boom ......"

The sailor girl dubbed herself, and a painting device suddenly appeared behind her, and the whole person accelerated while the mecha fist attached to the right arm appeared in her right hand, is that her ability......

Hiiragi continued to watch, and the Sailor Girl's fist literally hit the body of the Steel-Shelled Traverser, and then the sound of the mechanism working, and the right fist of the Sailor Suit Girl's mecha caused an explosion. The close-range explosion distorted the steel shell of the possessed traverser, and the flames and impact of the explosion caused Hiiragi to temporarily retreat behind the wall.

The ground shook, everything was affected by the impact of the explosion, the earth and rocks scattered, the sand and dust stormed away, and by the time Hiiragi looked over, a particle barrier appeared in front of the sailor girl, blocking those shock waves.

There is no doubt that she uses high-tech equipment, and Hiiragi begins to guess that her ability is to use high-tech weapons and equipment freely.

"Over there, there's no need to hide, it's really rude before! It's time to turn you into bolognese! ”

Now that Hiiragi has been discovered, Hiiragi has no reason to hide, but there is another one that appears with Hiiragi, and that is the person behind the wall in front of Hiiragi......

"Ah, I thought there was only one, and there was another one who didn't admit himself?"

Hiiragi also looked to the other side, and the familiar face surprised Hiiragi too. Did you come here so quickly? The sister of one of the onmyoji siblings, Sakurashita Yuuki. (To be continued.) )
