I weave fate in parallel time and space

"gentlemen."

A black car parked in the center of the square at a military base on the outskirts of Britannia's Steam City.

In front of the car is a heavy armored vehicle, surrounded by soldiers with live ammunition.

Mycroft was still standing next to the black car in the same suit, with a cigarette in his mouth.

A man in a suit with a fat belly and bald hair was standing in front of Mycroft with a smile, and handed the document in his hand to Mycroft.

"I'll leave the things to you, please sign."

Mycroft threw the cigarette butt in his mouth on the ground and stamped it out, then took the document from the bald man's hand and signed his name.

Rob, who was standing beside him, picked up the cigarette butt from the ground and threw it into the trash can on the side.

The bald man took the document from Mycroft's hand, looked at it carefully, and then bowed to Mycroft.

"Please do as you please, then I'll get to work first."

After saying that, he walked towards the house on the side of the base.

Rob raised his head and looked around the military base, "Our third agency headquarters should be stricter. The guards here are too perfunctory."

"After all, the confidentiality level of the Seventh Agency is not high." Mycroft said slowly, "Let's go."

He got into the car and Rob followed suit.

The armored vehicle slowly started to drive away from the military base, and the black car also left here.

These two vehicles do not belong to them, but to this base. At this moment, they are going to the airship parking lot in the Steam City. They need to send this thing that needs to be escorted to the third agency in the Imperial Capital.

Steam City is actually not far from the military base, so it didn’t take a while to get there.

This city is the industrial center of the south. In the past, Britannia's main enemy was in the south, so there were many military factories here. When the world war started, the factories here produced a large number of weapons to support the front line.

There are many very large heavy industry companies here, such as the factory of Tesla in the past. Of course, this famous company in the past no longer belongs to Tesla. There is also the Behemoth Company that built the civilian armored vehicle that carried Sherlock Watson and others around the demon-filled imperial capital a few years ago.

Moreover, they were passing through a factory area. Through the windows, they could see many tall chimneys spewing thick smoke, and there were many mechas walking on the streets.

The houses here are also very different. Because of the many factories, this is also the most populous city in the south. And because the Steam City does not have to retain some historical buildings to affect urban construction like the Imperial City, there are many high-rise buildings here.

There are many workers wearing overalls on the road, even wearing some exoskeleton armor to assist work, or directly controlling non-combat mechas to move forward on the streets, which is very steampunk.

"This place is really completely different from the imperial capital." Rob whispered softly.

"The previous Imperial Capital was very similar to here," Mycroft said. "It's just that because of the need to implement environmental protection in the Imperial Capital, all the factories in the Imperial Capital were moved to the suburbs."

Rob nodded, "Indeed, when I was a child, I basically couldn't see the blue sky. Now the weather in the imperial capital is really much better."

He slowly raised his head and looked at the sky, "The sky here is much darker."

"After all, there are many factories, and pollution has always been the main problem that steam has to face." Mycroft said, "In the process of industrialization, something must be abandoned."

Rob seemed to want to say something else, but a loud noise from the distance startled him.

"Boom!!!"

It was like something exploded, followed by the earth trembling. People around thought it was an earthquake, and squatted on the ground and looked around in horror.

The vibration was even transmitted through the ground to the vehicle they were riding in. The vibration was so long-lasting that the surrounding houses began to tremble. Mycroft saw many obvious cracks on the ground.

"Boom!!!" A fireball that flew out of nowhere hit the end of the street. Countless gravels flew around. Ordinary people walking nearby were directly hit by the explosion when the stone hit them.

Some people's legs were broken directly and they were wailing on the ground in pain, while some people were hit by gravel and their heads were covered with blood.

The flames splashed around, igniting the surrounding houses, and the flames gradually burned fiercely.

Mycroft slowly raised his head and looked at the sky.

In the gloomy night, countless "fireballs" pierced the sky like meteors, and finally hit the city. Vibrating sounds came one after another from the distance.

And the vibrations coming from further away are even more concerning.

"Get out of here." Mycroft calmly ordered.

The car quickly changed to another street and drove quickly to the place where their airboat was parked.

But obviously, luck was not favoring them at this moment.

There was a whistling sound in Mycroft's ears.

"Boom!"

A huge noise came from their ears, and a stone hit the armored vehicle in front of them, directly smashing the armored vehicle into the house on one side.

The car he was riding in was also affected, and the entire car was overturned and smashed to the ground.

Fortunately, the car itself was specially made, so its appearance did not change much, and they were also wearing seat belts, so they were not injured.

However, Mycroft was stunned by the fall, and it took him a while to recover.

He unbuckled his seat belt, punched open the car door, and climbed out with difficulty with the rest of the people from the third agency.

He looked at the armored vehicle. Part of it had been deformed by the stone, but the whole thing was still intact.

Rob came out faster than him. He quickly stepped forward to open the rear door of the armored vehicle.

However, the door had been deformed and could not be opened either from the outside or the inside, and obviously, he was not strong enough to open such a heavily armored door.

"This kind of armored vehicle is so thick that it can only be pulled apart by hydraulic clamps. It cannot be pulled apart manually."

A fat worker wearing overalls came over and put his exoskeleton on the mechanical door, trying to help open the door. However, it was obvious that the exoskeleton of this era only made it easier for him to carry heavy objects. That's all, it can't increase much strength at all.

However, Mycroft walked over directly from one side. Without any hesitation, he punched the armored door directly.

What shocked the worker was that the heavy armored door was directly deformed by him.

Mycroft grabbed the deformed door with one hand, and with a soft hum, the door made a dull sound.

The door was actually opened by his hands.

The worker looked at Mycroft in disbelief, as if he was not looking at a person, but a humanoid mecha.

The door of the armored vehicle opened, and some soldiers jumped out, while others were a little unlucky, because their heads were severely injured in the impact just now, and they completely lost their lives.

Several soldiers worked together to drag out a very well-sealed iron box.

Mycroft slowly raised his head with a solemn expression, and saw that on the city's skyline, red flames directly occupied half of the sky, and countless smoke and dust poured into the sky, making it a dense black area.

This dull atmosphere reminded him of the demonic invasion a few years ago, filling him with deep uneasiness. (End of chapter)
