角色故事•三(解鎖條件:角色等級60)
她曾回到窟盧的舊地,但迎接她的既非狼嚎,也非狐鳴,只是一個望不見底的深壑。光浪的燒灼後,甚至連枯骨都未留下。
但她依舊追逐着流星,這裏的每一個人都是——那是帝弓的光芒,是他們身處險境的精神支撐。
也正因如此,當面對豐饒民的再次進犯,她無法相信眼前的景象——流星正在向他們落下。
即使這裏有無數豐饒孽物集結,也有無數曜青軍士苦苦死戰。
但流星破空的聲響宛如步步逼近的死神,讓她通體冰冷,如墮地獄之中。
那位在她心中戰無不勝的將軍,也於帝弓之光下化作齏粉。她絕望地奔走在戰場上,試圖帶回存活的人們,直到在光芒的餘波中失去意識。
她狂怒般地吶喊,但無人能聽見她的聲音。
一切歸於寂靜。
至此之後,她經常會做噩夢,夢見有人向她伸出手,但在她到達之前,他們已被光淹沒。
「還不夠…還不夠……」
她也曾淚流滿面地從夢中醒來,但她知曉所有的承諾,只有在戰場上才能得到實現。
她披帶鎧甲,走向陣列的最前方。任由狂亂湧入血液,以赤手空拳為軍士開闢前進的血路。
她如流星一般降臨於敵陣,如山的怪物在她的轟擊下四分五裂。
在眾人的注視下,她以一己之力迫使敵方大軍不斷後退。
「天擊將軍!天擊將軍!」
微弱的呼聲化作徹地的戰吼,一股龐然而原始的意志正在她的感染下甦醒。
她於血雨中停下腳步,於狂暴中怒而沉聲道——
「我向你們許諾。
終有一日,我會比帝弓的光矢更快。
終有一日,我們不必再目睹『流星』落下。」
那一天,那場雨中,她在血與火的淬鍊下新生。
Character Story: Part III
• Unlocked at Character Level 60
She had once returned to her old home of Koolur. However, what greeted her there was neither the roar of wolves nor the call of foxes, but simply a bottomless ravine. After the light waves had engulfed everything in flames, not even bones remained.
However, she still follows the shooting star. Everyone here follows it — It is the light of the Reignbow, their spiritual support in times of great danger.
That's precisely why she could not believe her eyes when the Denizens of Abundance attacked again — the shooting star is now descending on them.
Even if there are countless Abominations of Abundance gathering there, there are also countless Yaoqing soldiers boldly fighting to the death.
Yet the sound of the shooting star splitting the skies grows ever closer, like the footsteps of death itself. Her whole body feels cold, like she had suddenly plummeted to the icy depths of hell.
Under the light of the Reignbow, even the general she has always regarded as invincible is ground to dust. She desperately runs onto the battlefield, trying to bring back any survivors, until she loses consciousness in the residual light.
She looses a roar of rage into the air, but no one can hear her.
Everything is reduced to silence.
From that day, she would have constant nightmares. People in her dreams would reach out their hands to her but, before she could arrive to help them, they are devoured by the light.
"More... I have to save more..."
She would awake from these dreams with her face covered in tears. But she knows that all her promises could only ever be fulfilled on the battlefield.
She puts on her armor and walks to the very front of the formation. She allows the madness to seep into her blood and uses her bare hands to tear open a crimson path for her forces to advance.
She descends on the enemy like a meteor, and mountain-like beasts crumble to dust under the force of her attacks.
She single-handedly pushes the enemy armies to retreat before her soldiers' eyes.
"The Merlin's Claw! The Merlin's Claw!"
The weak call she heard before has completely transformed into a battle cry, as a great and primitive will wake with her infection.
She stands still among the rain of blood and roars out in a berserk rage
"I promise you all.
One day, I will be faster than the Reignbow's Lux Arrow.
One day, we shall no longer have to witness the falling of 'shooting stars.'"
On that day, in that rain, she is reborn and recast in blood and fire.
