In the steel fortress, a battle had just ended.
The fight lasted an entire day. During that time, countless mechanical automatons were destroyed, numerous spaceships fell from the sky, and a dozen iron guards were seriously injured, but fortunately, their chips were not damaged.
The conflict broke out between the moderate and radical factions, which had long-standing differences. There had been a recent easing of tensions, and they had decided to jointly destroy the Shadow World, taking only a million chosen ones to leave and then starting to pursue the footsteps of the Far Traveler.
However, the representatives sent by both sides to the Shadow World lost contact with each other, each suspecting the other of foul play at the very end, which eventually led to the outbreak of war.
The Radical Faction struck first, launching a surprise attack on the steel factory and successfully seizing control of it.
