Runes Against the World

In a fantasy country where wind and steel intertwine, runes are carved in the air, the Steam Cult controls absolute power, and declares enchantment to be a divine right. Su Muchiao and Chu Ciyu are untouchables in the slums and live in poverty. Chu Ciyu accidentally discovered that she could see ancient spells in the wind and could use the broken gears to reorganize the forbidden enchantment array. At this time, the system comes to provide them with a digital growth path. The Cult of Steam regards the protagonists as a threat, and sends out the Mechanical Knights and other forces to suppress them with all their strength, trying to nip them in the bud. If the protagonists fail, they will never be able to turn around and can only struggle at the bottom. In the process of growing up, faced with the powerful power given by the system, they were caught in a dilemma: should they cling to the divine religion to obtain benefits, or should they stick to their beliefs and resist injustice. Due to the slander of the divine religion, the protagonist is misunderstood by the people as a heretic, and the living environment becomes increasingly difficult. The hunt for the cult is becoming increasingly urgent, and the protagonist must become stronger within a limited time. In the end, the protagonist successfully defeats the cult, but pays a heavy price at the expense of his best friend.
