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。」
名为「朋克洛德」的游戏，在这一天结束了。
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. |

卢卡
角色详情
乐观阳光、不拘小节的机械臂自由格斗家，「地火」成员之一。
从拳台到战场，从拳击手到战士，卢卡用这份力量去守护下层区的人们。
正因为自己曾经体会过绝望，所以他更渴望将希望带给其他人。
Character Details An optimistic and carefree fighter with a mechanical arm. Skilled in mixed martial arts and is a Wildfire member.
From the fight cage to the battlefield, and from a fighter to a warrior, Luka uses his strength to protect the people of the Underworld.

角色故事•一（解锁条件：角色等级20） 他抡起钢锤，一遍又一遍。
火花在眼前绽开，金属碰撞的声音盖过了肌肉和关节扭动时发出的闷响。少年的身高还不足以够到铁柜顶层的工具，但他挥动钢锤的力道已经可以媲美最娴熟的工匠。
脚下的这方店铺就是他生活的全部。父亲蹲坐在店门前，反复擦拭着锈迹斑斑的门牌。偶尔，他会躺在硬邦邦的床上，幻想自己的未来——但无论他的精神漫游至何处，父亲的背影总会在思绪的尽头出现。
一阵脚步声传来，他暂时放下了手中的活计。父亲站起身来，厚实、但有些佝偻的身形透出一丝恭维。又是「地火」的那伙人——自熔锤镇戒严以来，他们就经常光临这间工匠铺，各类武器的需求订单也增长了不少。
少年想着心事，眼神偶然与领头的那位老主顾相撞。他皮肤黝黑，身姿挺拔，原本犀利的目光在瞥到自己的瞬间柔和了下来。他向着少年微微点头。
「奥列格头儿，欢迎！今天有什么需要吗？」 「别着急，师傅。今天我只是想来找你聊聊，」他指向卢卡，「聊聊有关你儿子的事。」

He lifts the steel hammer over and over.
Sparks erupt before his eyes, and the clang of metal against metal mutes the thuds of moving muscles and joints. The boy is not yet tall enough to reach the tools at the top of the steel cabinet, but the power with which he swings the steel hammer can already rival that of the most skilled craftsmen.
This shop is his entire life, with his father squatting next to the door and repeatedly cleaning the rusted old shop sign. Sometimes he would lie on his hard bed and imagine his future — but no matter where his mind wandered, his father's figure would always appear in his thoughts at the end.
He temporarily puts down his work as footsteps approach. His father stands up, and the older man's stout but bowed figure moves with a hint of groveling flattery. It's those people from Wildfire again. Ever since Moltammerville went under a curfew, they have been frequenting this shop and have increased the number of orders for various weapons.
As the boy thinks about this, he happens to stare into the eyes of that regular old customer who acts as the leader of the group. That man's skin is tanned and he stands tall, his sharp gaze immediately softens when he locks eyes with the boy. Then, he nods imperceptibly at the boy.
"Welcome, Chief Oleg! How can I help you today?"
"Patience, my good sir. I'm just here for a chat today." The man points at Luka. "A chat about your son." |

角色故事•二（解锁条件：角色等级40） 周围火光四起，弥漫的烟尘扰乱了他的视线，嘶吼和惨叫不断传入耳中。机油和血液的气味混杂着袭来，卢卡强忍住呕吐的欲望。
第一次挥出标准的直拳时，奥列格师父脸上的笑意让他备受鼓舞。然而，亲身体会过前线的残酷之后，他再也没能寻回那股温暖的心流。每次列队，他都会打暗中观察战友们的表情——从一张张脸孔上读出的不安反而能稍稍平复他的慌张。
一阵尖叫将卢卡拉回了现实。他冲向声音传来的方向，看到一个无助的孩子被怪物逼到了角落。本能策动他飞身一跃，挡在了利斧与孩子脆弱的身躯之间。
身后传来一声巨响。卢卡一手抱紧惊慌失措的男孩，缓缓转过头来。畸形的怪物瘫倒在地，似乎是被战场上的流弹击中了要害。
「谢…谢谢哥哥……」
「怎么样？你没事吧？」
「哥哥…你…你的手……」
他顺着孩子的手指望向自己的右臂——本应连接着上臂的肩袖处只剩下一截随风飘摆的碎布。碎布之下，血流如注。
但在疼痛夺走他的意识之前，那股暖流重新涌进了他的心房。
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. |

角色故事•三（解锁条件：角色等级60） 第一次参加擂台赛，卢卡倒在了决赛场上。
「哈哈哈，没用的废物！这就是弱肉强食的世界——你这种货色，不配出现在我眼前！」
卢卡没有在意那份羞辱。决赛的对手是镇上出名的恶棍，出手阴狠毒辣。如果注定要靠这些阴险的路数才能夺得冠军——他心想——什么破金腰带，不要也罢。
第二天晚上，他在俱乐部的转角看到几个孩子。其中一个身形瘦小的男孩痛苦地蜷在地上，遍体鳞伤。围在他身边的大孩子们趾高气昂，神情得意。
「哈哈哈，没用的废物！」领头的恶霸指着受伤的男孩，「这就是弱肉强食的世界——你不配出现在我眼前！」
从那时起，他发誓要成为下层区的冠军——用他自己的方式，堂堂正正。
Character Story: Part III • Unlocked at Character Level 60
Luka is defeated at the final stage during the first championship he takes part in.
"Hahaha, how useless! This is the world of survival of the fittest — someone as weak as you shouldn't even show yourself before me!"
Luka does not mind the humiliation. His opponent for the final is an infamous thug in town known for his underhanded and cruel tactics. If I have to resort to this kind of tricks and deceit to become the champion — Luka thinks — then I'd rather never get my hands on the golden belt.
Luka runs into a few children around the corner from the Fight Club the night after. A short and skinny boy is curled up on the ground, his body covered in wounds while the older children surrounding him laugh in arrogance.
"Hahaha, how useless!" The leader of the bullies points at the wounded boy. "This is the world of survival of the fittest — someone as weak as you shouldn't even show yourself before me!"
That is when Luka swears he will become the Underworld champion — and he will do it his own way: Fair and square. |

角色故事•四（解锁条件：角色等级80） 「今天就练到这儿吧。来，小子，坐。」
「…这就完事了？我还想着今天加练几组呢！」
「你小子，别逞能了。赶紧过来！」
「哈哈哈，来了来了！」
「小子——我问你个问题，你老实回答。」
「哦？这是啥，师徒交心环节？你问呗，师父。」
「我问你，打拳这件事——你是打心底喜欢吗？」
「哈哈哈，怎么突然问这个？当然喜欢了！要不然，我能在你身边坚持这么久？」
「你小子，别抖机灵！认真回答，听见没有？」
「这么严肃啊…行吧。非要掏心窝子地说…也算不上那么喜欢吧。」
「…嗯，总算听到句实话。那我问你…如果有一天，下层区不再需要『地火』的保护了…你还会继续练拳吗？」
「唔，我想想啊…应该会吧？」
「为什么？你站上拳台从来不是为了赢什么金腰带，别以为我没看出来。如果下层真的能太平下来…你还有挥拳的理由吗？」
「师父，你以前说过吧？不管什么年代都有恶人。哪怕裂界的怪物都死绝了，人和人之间也会因为些鸡毛蒜皮的小事争个你死我活。」
「嗯…我好像是说过这话。」
「只要这世界上还有恶人，只要还有善良的人需要保护——」卢卡站起身来，「——我就会继续挥拳！」

"We'll call it a day here. Come, boy. Take a seat."
"...This is all? I was planning to practice a few more sets today!"
"Oh, c'mon, stop pushing yourself. Get over here!"
"Hahaha. I'm coming. I'm coming!"
"Boy, I'm gonna ask you a question, and you need to give me an honest answer."
"Oh? What is this heart-to-heart we're having? Go on. Ask away."
"Look, when it comes to fighting... Do you actually like fighting?"
"Hahaha! Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Of course I do! Why else would I stick with you for so long?"
"Don't be smart with me, boy! Answer the question!"
"You're really serious about this... Okay. To be completely honest? I don't like it that much."
"Mmm... finally got an honest answer out of you. So, if the Underworld no longer needs Wildfire's protection... would you still train yourself as a fighter?"
"Mmm, lemme think... I probably will."
"Why? You didn't get into fighting because you want the golden belt. Don't think you can hide that from me. If the Underworld really became peaceful one day... would you still have a reason to fight?"
"Sir, I remember you saying that there are bad people in every era. Even if all the Fragmentum monsters die off, people would still fight to the death for every little thing."
"Hmm... I did say that."
"As long as there are still bad people in this world, and as long as there are still good people I need to protect—" Luka stands up, "then I will keep on fighting!" |
