Industrial Cthulhu: Starting as an Island Lord - Chapter 86: Need to Pay Extra

On just another normal Monday, the world changed. The universe had reached a threshold humanity didn’t even know existed, and it was time to finally be integrated into the vast multiverse. A world where power is the only thing that one can truly rely on.
