In this world full of noise and chaos, each of us is looking for our own place. Whether it is a warrior in the flames of war or an ordinary person in daily life, they are constantly playing games and fighting with the world in their own ways. And this game is not only a challenge to the outside world, but also a challenge to the self who is constantly lost and uneasy deep in the heart. The new characters in the 1.6 version of “Zone Zero” – Silver Heart Tin Soldier Ambi, Pokona and Trigger, they may be heroes in this virtual world, but in my opinion, they are more like ordinary people in life. The struggles and pains they have experienced are the dilemmas that each of us often encounters in life.
Ambi, this cold electric attribute strong attack character, seems to have powerful strength and combat skills, but deep in his heart, there is an unknown fragility. Under his hard appearance, he hides the loneliness and pain of being abandoned. Have you ever wondered whether the hero holding the lightning sword, who could quickly defeat all the enemy’s defenses, had ever cried because of loneliness, or had his heart broken because of the betrayal of trust? The reason why he was cold and unwilling to establish a deep relationship with others was because he had long been hurt by the ruthlessness of life and the complexity of human nature. The softness and dependence that once existed quietly disappeared in betrayal and loss, leaving only a calm shell and a hardening heart.
The story of the Silver Heart Tin Soldier Amby is undoubtedly a profound analysis of human nature. In him, we see the choices made by many people when facing the injustice of fate: either be defeated or choose to be strong. Amby is not born cold, he also had a warm past, may have had friends, family, and even a hot dream. However, when these beautiful things disappeared one by one with the passage of time, he gradually realized that the cruelty of life is like this: what you strive to pursue may disappear at any time, and the person you once loved may also leave you. In this despair, Amby chose indifference and chose to isolate himself from the outside world. His lightning sword is not only an attack on the enemy, but also a catharsis of his inner reluctance and pain.
And Pokona, this seemingly fearless female character, also hides an unspeakable sadness behind her. She is not born strong, but she has gradually learned to be strong and independent in countless disappointments and betrayals. Pokona’s calmness and her rationality are her only reaction when facing the ruthless things in this world. Unlike Ambi, she does not choose to be cold directly, but faces every battle and every choice with a rational heart. She may have longed for friendship and family affection, and longed for a warm home, but in the end, she understood a truth: the world will not stop for anyone, and only the strongest people can survive in this barren land.
There is a trace of sadness in her eyes, which is a little regret left by her past self to her present self. She no longer expects anything, but just silently endures it all, using reason to defend her dignity. The story of Pokona brings us deep thinking: How does a person change from a hopeful teenager to a calm, rational, and even somewhat numb adult? Behind her strength, she is saying goodbye to the past and clearly recognizing her weakness.
As for Trigger, she may be the most oppressive of the three. She always appears with a resolute attitude. In every battle, she ends her opponent with extremely precise attacks. However, behind this resoluteness, there is also an unspeakable helplessness. Trigger is not ignorant of emotions, but she has long learned how to stay calm in the whirlpool of emotions. She understands that emotions and weakness will only become a burden and an obstacle that prevents her from moving forward. Therefore, she chose to bury her inner emotions in the deepest part and chose to make herself a “feelless” warrior. Every time she attacks, it is as ruthless as a blade, like a cold stone, hitting her own heart and cracking the softness she once had.
The world of Trigger is cold and cruel. She does not simply enjoy fighting, but sees it as a way of survival, a way of self-protection. Her life has long lost the warm memories of the past, and all the good things have gradually faded in her memory and disappeared without a trace. Her indifference may be the only way to survive in this dangerous land. Everything about her reminds us: in this world, the only one we can rely on is ourselves.
The fate of the three new characters in the 1.6 version of “Zero” is not glamorous, but full of pain, loneliness and helplessness. Everyone struggles under the pressure of this world, and everyone is constantly abandoning the past, abandoning the warmth and ideals they once had in order to survive. They may never have thought that they would come to this point today, or they may have imagined a better future, but reality never changes according to anyone’s wishes. It is this ruthless reality that has shaped their coldness and hardness today.
However, just like the pain buried deep in everyone’s heart, they are not born strong, but life forces them to learn to be strong. The meaning of life may be that even if we are overwhelmed by countless difficulties and setbacks, we can still find our own strength and keep moving forward. The stories of Tin Soldier Amby, Pokona and Trigger are like a microcosm of each of us: in the long river of life, we may be constantly hit, lost, or even lose everything, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, we can keep moving forward.
