角色故事•四（解锁条件：角色等级80）
她站在椅子上，擦着街机屏幕，打着圈，一遍又一遍，像是要擦掉每一粒灰尘。
她回到了那家快餐店，那间地下室。她打开门，一切一如既往，女主人为她保留了所有的布置。
粉色的灯光洒落在屏幕上，像是城市里的霓虹，让她想起那一夜看见的星空。
她不是第一个登上那座大厦顶端的人，也不是第一个眺望那片星空的人。
她知道「零号」的故事，网络战争年代最伟大的骇客、最可怕的玩家，他引起了第一次全球网络瘫痪，只为将星际和平公司的押送船叫来自家门口。
她又想起「先哲」，以太编辑技术的创造者，以死者为自己命名的怪人。为了离开星球，他甘愿抛弃肉身，攻入黑域，成为一个在星际互联网络中永远徘徊的幽灵。
她想起「石剑」，废品山的骄傲，他反抗绿洲区的故事在大荒野家喻户晓，有人说他最后追随巡海游侠而去，在银河中继续挥洒叛逆的火花。
还有他的挚爱「孪蛇」，绿洲区的红人。她的去向众说纷纭，人们只知出身没能阻止她和石剑走到一起，银河却让他们最终分道扬镳。
在朋克洛德，所有被称作「传奇」的骇客都走向了同一个终点。
而身为如今的传奇，她知道自己也已来到那扇门前。
哒、哒…她听见头顶传来脚步声，逐渐靠近、靠近……
一个人、两个人、三个人、四个人。
一个男人、一个女人、一个铁皮人，还有……
她坐下来，转过身，看向空空荡荡的地下室，看向门边的那个人——
「我加入。」
Character Story: Part IV
• Unlocked at Character Level 80
She stood on a chair and dusted the screen of the arcade machine in circular motions again and again, trying to wipe away each particle of dust on it.
She returned to that fast food restaurant, to that basement. She opened the door, and everything was where they used to be. The proprietress kept all the arrangements for her.
The soft pink light spilled on the screen like the neon lights in the city, reminding her of the starry skies she saw on that day.
She was not the first to reach the top of that building, and not the first to have gazed upon those starry expanses.
She knew the story of Zero, the greatest hacker and the most terrifying player in the era of Internet Wars. He caused the first global network paralysis just to summon the IPC's escort ship to his doorstep.
She thought of Sage, the creator of the aether editing technology, a weirdo who named himself after the dead. To leave the planet, he was willing to discard his physical flesh, raid into the Dark Zone, and become a wraith eternally wandering the Interastral Network.
She recalled Stoneblade, the pride of Mount Scrap. His tales of resisting the Oasis Zone were oft-told among families in the barren land. Some said he eventually left with the Galaxy Rangers, continuing his rebellious spark in the galaxy.
His lover, Twinsnake, a celebrity in the Oasis Zone. Her whereabouts were widely disputed, and all people knew was that their birth could not stop them from being together, but the galaxy eventually parted them.
On Punklorde, any hacker who can be called "legendary" has ended up with the same fate.
As the legend of the current era, she knew that she has already arrived at that threshold.
Clop, clop... She heard footfalls coming from above her, getting closer, closer...
One, two, three, four people.
A man, a woman, a metal humanoid, and...
She sat down, turned around, and looked around the empty basement one last time, before turning to the person at the door...
"I'll join."
The game called Punklorde ended that day.
