角色故事•二(解鎖條件:角色等級40)
周圍火光四起,瀰漫的煙塵擾亂了他的視線,嘶吼和慘叫不斷傳入耳中。機油和血液的氣味混雜著襲來,盧卡強忍住嘔吐的欲望。
第一次揮出標準的直拳時,奧列格師父臉上的笑意讓他備受鼓舞。然而,親身體會過前線的殘酷之後,他再也沒能尋回那股溫暖的心流。每次列隊,他都會打暗中觀察戰友們的表情——從一張張臉孔上讀出的不安反而能稍稍平復他的慌張。
一陣尖叫將盧卡拉回了現實。他沖向聲音傳來的方向,看到一個無助的孩子被怪物逼到了角落。本能策動他飛身一躍,擋在了利斧與孩子脆弱的身軀之間。
身後傳來一聲巨響。盧卡一手抱緊驚慌失措的男孩,緩緩轉過頭來。畸形的怪物癱倒在地,似乎是被戰場上的流彈擊中了要害。
「謝…謝謝哥哥……」
「怎麼樣?你沒事吧?」
「哥哥…你…你的手……」
他順著孩子的手指望向自己的右臂——本應連接著上臂的肩袖處只剩下一截隨風飄擺的碎布。碎布之下,血流如注。
Character Story: Part II
• Unlocked at Character Level 40
There is fire all around him, and the thick black smoke makes it hard to see. He keeps hearing screams and screeches as the fused scent of machine oil and blood sweeps over his nostrils. Luka tries hard to push down the urge to vomit.
The smile that Oleg wore on his face when Luka swung a perfect straight punch for the first time inspired Luka. However, once the boy had experienced the cruelty of the front lines first-hand, he never regained that warm feeling in his heart. Luka would secretly observe his comrades' expressions every time they lined up for action — and the apprehension he saw on those faces would actually soothe his own anxiety.
A scream pulls Luka back to reality. He rushes toward where the sound came from and sees a helpless child being backed into a corner by a monster. Instinctively, he leaps out and puts himself between the sharp ax and the child's fragile form.
A loud blast sounds from behind him. Luka hugs the panicked boy with one arm and slowly turns his head. The mutated monster had fallen to the ground, seemingly hit in the vitals by a stray bullet.
"Th—Thank you... mister..."
"Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"
"Mister... your... your arm..."
His eyes follow the direction the child is pointing at. The sleeve that should have covered his upper right arm has been reduced to a shred of broken fabric, and blood is pouring out of his severed limb.
However, before he faints from the pain, he could once again feel that warmth swelling up in his heart.
