All you need for the Cloud is an internet connection.
However you may be a bit confused. The Adobe Photography Package has several components.
1. Adobe Lightroom Classic (LrC) - can store locally
2. Adobe Photoshop - can store locally
3. Bridge
4. Adobe Camera RAW
5. Adobe Lightroom (different than LrC and it only runs on Phones and iPads. I do not use it but I believe it only stores in the cloud. You have no choice. (Others correct me if I am mistaken).
6. Adobe Photoshop for iPhone and iPad - not sure about the storage.
7. Ability to set up 4 separate web sites for no additional charge on the Adobe Servers.
Be careful about the nomenclature of the programs and storage location. You may not want to start paying Adobe a bunch of money for storage if you don't do a lot of mobile photography where you need to process images immediately.
My take only. I am sure others have different opinions. You must educate yourself before spending you money.

That is not quite correct. The "cloudy" Lightroom is different from Lightroom Classic. But, there are versions for a lot more than Phones and iPads. There are versions that run on any Mac or PC and even one that runs in a Web browser. Why? Because you can work on an image from any one of those connections. You can even link (the cloudy) Lightroom to Lightroom Classic. Take a picture with your phone and, if your system is linked up, it will be automatically imported into Classic, ready for you to work on.
