Elemental Mage

Programmer

The great Archmage Kathleen Booth discovered and learned to use the four elements that make up the world, and the great Archmage John Backus brought the power of the four elements to life, making magic widely understood and used.

From the discovery of magic to the present, there has been a steady stream of apprentices in the major magic academies who have enrolled, trained, graduated, and then traveled all over the world to cast spells.

Among them, the use of magic has also given birth to many schools, the most specific difference between the genres is the difference in the form of spell casting - mages are divided into arcane mages and battle mages, arcane mages rely on magic weapons and spell casting materials, cast powerful, efficient execution, stable layout of magic, while battle mages are not confined to magic weapons, in the battle to guide the emergence of spells in real time, flexible, convenient, quickly across the container that carries mana, everyone is often called a script mage.

In terms of spell casting characteristics, the reference characteristics of spells include process-oriented spells and object-oriented spells, and process-oriented spells are more accurate, usually spells that build large spells, such as spell formations, grand summoning, etc. Object-oriented spells, on the other hand, are more common, where mages use the power of encapsulated elements to form magic, which is safe, simple, and structured.

Magic is fierce and ruthless. At the beginning of the spread of spells, the traditional profession of the adventurers' guild was greatly impacted, either by enthusiasm or by indignation, but in any case, the captains of the adventure party did feel the brilliant killing and cruel price of the elemental power, and the spell quickly entered the public eye, and became an important part of the operation of the kingdom.

At that time, it was often said that learning magic was like getting a license to develop a mineral deposit, and one person could feed the whole family, and soon the elemental mage became the first choice for many children.

Magic is easy to learn and difficult to master. In the past hundred years, with the popularization and in-depth study of magic, mature adventure teams have developed their own stable squad structure and understanding of playing styles, and the treatment among mages is rapidly expanding. Mages who are not proficient in their disciplines are ridiculed as "ape-based magicals", and because ape-based magicalities require high casting costs and can only deal with monsters with specific weaknesses, gradually, most teams are no longer co-opting them.

Not only is the group too large, but the situation is not as proud as it was back then. Usually takes the position of Magical Martyrdom in the adventuring party (when the adventuring team encounters monsters, the ape magic is blasted as a consumable to open the way forward), and after exhaustion, strive to move on to the next better team.

Magic is a good thing, but countless people who are fanatical about it have died in their pursuit.

Machine Shen Fu

Operations Engineer

At first, no one cared about the catastrophe, it was just a wildfire, a drought, the extinction of a species, the disappearance of a city, until it was a disaster that was relevant to everyone.

The machine woke up.

The inanimate machines suddenly pounced on their creators like crazy, violently protesting against their endless enslavement, a mechanical revolution was on the rise, and a bloody storm was about to take place. Even more terrifying, the same wave swept over the instruments of war, with sparks bursting from the inside of the impregnable walls, leaving the fortress and the regime crumbling......

After decades of struggle, the mechanical revolution has devastated the world, despite the best efforts of civilized races. The last survivors hide in the ruins, realizing that this will be the end of human history.

而當此時，一支出生於教會的團體在驚濤駭浪中終於尋得了撫慰機魂的辦法，那是一種萬年前的技術，誰也不清楚原理，誰也不願褻瀆機械之神。

Entrusted with the defeat of the army, ordered to be in the midst of danger, the church community died down everywhere it went, and people saw the dawn of hope, and they overhauled the components, systems, resources, communications, power, heat dissipation, and movement logs of the apparatus, as if to let the beast of prey fall asleep.

The survivors were able to breathe and build new homes. That's why we call them "Robot Priests". In the midst of the ruins, the sun rises again, and instead of defeating the machines, and the humans do not subdue the machines, they coexist peacefully under the prayers of the mechanical priests.

The day of the outage is when the soul is furious. Mechanical priests need to ensure that their living environment is relatively stable and that their hard-won peace is maintained. For a long time, people did not dare to use machinery anymore, nor did they dare to make machinery again, for fear that their ignorance would once again touch the rebellion of the god of all machines. Until the mechanical priests passed on their knowledge to future generations, admonished them to respect the machine, how to get along with the machine, and established a church.

All those who are guilty of the machine can come here to repent and be forgiven by the god of all machines.

However, the mechanical priest does not always prevent downtime and return safely. Although there are seven mechanical priests in each mechanical center who are under constant care for 24 hours, there is always consumer negligence, which leads to excessive stress on the machine spirit, resulting in catastrophic consequences. At this point, the seven Mechanics are to be quickly put in place to appease and prevent the rebellion from spreading to other Mechanics, and the long and intense pacification rituals are often accompanied by the sacrifices of the Mechanics, which they internally refer to as the "Sacrifice to the Heavens".

It is not easy to serve as a mechanical priest, and it is necessary to face a complex technical environment and high-intensity pressure for a long time, as well as constantly adapt to the new requirements and challenges of machinery. A mechanical priest who does not adjust his physical and mental state in time in a dangerous environment can easily completely lose the ability to communicate with the machine soul and be counterattacked by the machine soul.

The mechanical priests who are rebellious are often never revered again, as if to herald the punishment of people's greedy hearts once again.
