In the hustle and bustle of today’s gaming world, Mingchao is like a microcosm, reflecting people’s desires and struggles. The character of Brandt is not only a weapon for fighting, but also a sustenance for treatment. Her skill development is not only a competition of numbers, but also a metaphor for real society. If Mr. Lu Xun were to discuss this matter, he would definitely reveal the power and the dark side of human nature with a sharp pen.
First, let’s talk about the skill of “resonance circuit”. It looks gentle, and the layers of “applause” are like those false clamors. Can the superficial care and protection really cover up the loneliness and helplessness in the heart? Are these layers of shields and treatments like illusions in society, covering up the real pain? Brandt’s skills are like masks in modern society, giving people temporary comfort, but it is difficult to cure deep-rooted scars. The design of this skill is actually a manifestation of contradiction: it has to output and heal, it is both an attacker and a guardian, just like people who are forced to play dual roles in reality, struggling between survival and conscience.
“Resonance liberation” is more complicated. Although restoring the lives of the entire team at one time is redemption in the game, such a thorough rescue is not common in real society. It reflects an idealistic fantasy: expecting all traumas to heal instantly, but the reality is far from that. Brent’s skill is like an illusory placebo, reminding players that even in adversity, they should have hope, but this hope is fragile and easily shattered. Just like the “redemption” described by Lu Xun, it is both desirable and out of reach.
The choice of the weapon “Immortal Route” Xun Dao seems to imply a stubborn persistence. The fast pace of Xun Dao symbolizes the high-speed rhythm of modern society, and people seek breakthroughs and survival in endless running. However, this sharp blade is also easy to hurt itself. Brent’s use of this weapon is both a form of self-defense and a passive attack. This double-edged sword is like the ordinary people in Lu Xun’s works who are caught up in the times. They want to break free from the shackles, but they can’t avoid getting hurt.
The “Courage of the Waves” suit of Sheng Hai has both offensive and defensive capabilities. Its design seems to be a straightforward presentation of the slogan of modern people to “face difficulties bravely”. However, is this courage real or an imposed illusion? Brent’s power comes from the improvement of numerical values, reflecting the blind worship of “power” in today’s society. True courage is often not a cold number, but a calmness and resistance to one’s own weaknesses. The improvement of skills is certainly important, but it is more worth thinking about whether the player is also reflecting on his own situation in the growth of the character.
From the perspective of team matching, Brent’s matching with characters such as Changli and Jinxi presents an ideal picture of teamwork. However, in reality, the relationship between people is far from so simple. The tacit understanding and cooperation in the game somewhat conceal the complexity and contradiction of interpersonal relationships in real society. Brent’s role as a healer and guardian in the team just exposes her fragility and dependence. This dependence reminds us that no matter how strong everyone is, there will always be a time when they need to be rescued.
The order of skill upgrades is like a ladder in life. First, ensure the foundation, then strengthen the output, which seems to be a rational and steady path. However, in real life, this road is often full of twists and turns. The clear order of skill growth is a fantasy given to players by the game: efforts and dedication must be rewarded. But Mr. Lu Xun would tell us that society is not fair, many people are hopeless, and many efforts are in vain. The idealism behind this development system is in sharp contrast to the cruelty of reality.
In summary, Brent’s skill development is not only a display of game mechanisms, but also a mirror that reflects people’s inner contradictions, social turmoil and helplessness in reality. Her treatment and output, attack and protection are metaphors for the identity of the role in real life and a portrayal of the complexity of human nature. This character in Mingchao is both the embodiment of hope and a witness to the predicament. If Lu Xun were alive today, he might use her story to analyze the pain of the human heart, criticize the absurdity of society, and awaken the sleeping people.
Beyond the game, the significance of Brandt goes far beyond entertainment itself. It reminds us: in a chaotic era, we must stay awake and not be confused by appearances; in a complex life, we must stick to our original intentions and face ourselves bravely. In this way, perhaps we can find the “immortal route” that truly belongs to us.
