Apollo didn't expect that the shackles would give him this much trouble, as they seemed to follow the pattern. The more he uses life force, the stronger the draining effect will be on him. Making his attack many times weaker than it usually is.
But he didn't have time to think about this as other Alchemy puppets also jumped at him, not wanting him to give him any leisure time to think, and many fists and kicks came towards him from different directions.
Bang! Bang! Bang!...
Their fists and bodies clashed with each other as he bravely faced them, but he was pushed back into the corner as the alchemy puppets launched a barrage of assaults on him, and he didn't seem to do much as every time he tried to use life force, the shackles disrupted him while draining most of his energy.
Those puppet's attacks weren't random, as they seemed to have good coordination; if one attacked from the front, someone from behind would also attack him.
