In this fast-changing and noisy world, everyone has their own silence and loneliness to a greater or lesser extent. Hugo, as the new S-level agent in “Zero Zone”, seems to be the one who is silent in the crowd but omnipresent. He has powerful ice attribute skills and unique ice and snow abilities, which not only make him unmatched in battle, but also make him seem a little indifferent and alienated in interpersonal interactions. However, if you look closely, you will find that behind this cold character, there are countless unspeakable warmth and emotions.
Hugo’s appearance: a double mask of coldness and power
Hugo’s appearance is a typical image of a strong man. Whether it is weapons or skills, he can show strong power. His special weapons, ordinary attacks, dodges, special skills, joint skills, and support skills are all full of cold power. When attacking, every moment his sickle is swung is a precise burst of power, and every ice attribute damage is like the frozen cold world in his heart. However, it is these external strengths that hide his inner struggle and anxiety.
Hugo’s exclusive sound engine “W-Engine” has high basic attack power and high critical hit rate, which represents his ultimate combat power. This makes him almost invincible in battle. But I know that this strength is not without cost. He constantly strengthens his ability, and every time he enhances the ice attribute damage, he tries to use external power to cover up his inner fragility. He has the ability to increase attack power, strengthen special skills, and strengthen joint skills, but the motivation behind this is not to show off, but to protect his heart that has been frozen for many years.
Ordinary attack and dodge: stick to your principles in conflict
Hugo’s ordinary attack is simple and efficient. Four-stage attack, causing ice attribute damage, this seemingly simple operation is actually conveying a symbol of power to the outside world. He faces everything coldly, and the four-stage attack represents his rationality and hardness; and in the fourth stage of the attack, his charged shot is like his memory of the past, condensed into a cold power, and finally burst out. During this process, he was not in a hurry to explode, but kept calm, advancing step by step in an almost ruthless way.
In contrast, he dodged and counterattacked without hesitation. Dodging is not for escape, but for re-examining himself. At this moment, he was alone, but he still responded to all the pressure in a silent way. When the enemy approached, Hugo’s counterattack was particularly powerful. At that moment, he did not run away, but took the initiative to attack, which was a catharsis for his inner anxiety. Just like the various difficulties in life, sometimes we have to face them, and the way to face them is to take the initiative to meet them, even in the calmest attitude.
Special skills and enhanced special skills: walk to the forefront of the battle with memories
Hugo’s special skills and enhanced special skills are the continuation of his cognition of the world. The slash launched forward after rotating the sickle seems simple, but it hides deep emotional entanglements. Every time a special skill is launched, Hugo is not just fighting with the enemy, but also fighting with the ice and snow in his heart. Every swing of the knife is full of pain and loneliness. His returned energy and the weak invincibility effect seem to tell us: Although I am cold, that is only a surface, and deep inside I am still full of passion and desire.
Strengthening special skills further reveals his inner heart. When the energy is sufficient, Hugo’s action of rotating the sickle is more powerful than ordinary skills. The burst of damage and the mechanism of energy return seem to be the process of his constant struggle with himself. Only through the accumulation and release of pain can he find a trace of his own liberation. And this liberation is not obtained through the direct expression of strength, but through fighting against his past, and finally turning into the sublimation of strength.
Linkage and finishing skills: the intersection of fate and the final liberation
Hugo’s linkage and finishing skills are the tacit understanding and resonance between him and his teammates. When the linkage skills are activated, Hugo is not only an independent fighter, but also a part of the team. The cooperation with others shows his emotion of still having some trust in the world. The large-scale slash after the rapid advance, and the cold power of the final blow, silently tell everyone – in this desolate world, cooperation between people is the strongest power.
And the launch of the final skill seems to be his complete destruction of all constraints. The thrown sickle, the slash after the strong rotation, is like his final judgment on fate. Every blow is ruthless, but after each blow, it carries the meaning of liberation. Hugo does not fight for killing. Every attack of his carries deep pain and struggle. Just like each of us, in our own lives, after countless blows and setbacks, we will eventually find our own peace and tranquility.
Support skills: power transmission in loneliness
In Hugo’s support skills, you can’t see the kind of passionate passion, nor can you hear the exciting horn. On the contrary, you will find his calm, delicate and restrained way. Every time a support skill is launched, it is his silent support and help. Whether it is the ice damage in the “Quick Support Skill” or the imbalance control in the “Parry Support Skill”, it reflects Hugo’s unique understanding of the world. He has no gorgeous lines or violent movements, but every time he supports, he brings changes to the people around him unconsciously.
The final launch of the support skill assault may not be vigorous, but it is enough to change the situation. Hugo’s support is not to satisfy his vanity, but to prove that in this cold world, there is still an inseparable warmth and care. He uses his own unique way to pass on that power to others, while he still maintains his original silence and tenacity.
Imagery: Crossing the cold and hot blood, looking for your own way
Hugo’s imagery is full of symbolic meaning. Every trigger is like a surge in his heart. Unlike the straightforwardness and publicity of other characters, every “settlement” effect of Hugo is a relief in his heart. That absorption and energy storage seems to be a compromise between him and his own destiny. In this process, he is not cold and ruthless, but quietly radiates the warmth in his heart.
When the finishing move is triggered, the enemy’s imbalance time will cause his damage to surge, which is not only a destruction of the enemy, but also a counterattack against his painful memories of being lost. In the end, Hugo will find his own way in this battle between cold and warm. Perhaps he is not perfect, but his efforts and struggles are enough to make us feel an indescribable power.
