Once Upon A Steampunk by delapr007

Story 2 of short Steampunk story, an aircraft officer and a postman try to find the cure of a strange poison in an island full of dragons and sky pirates. To me, Once upon a Steampunk is a captivating journey into an alternate reality, where the gears of the Industrial Revolution turn in harmony with fantastical elements and a touch of Victorian elegance. In this mesmerizing tale, the air is thick with steam, and the clinking of mechanical contraptions resounds through the cobbled streets. Immerse yourself in a world where steam-powered marvels and clockwork wonders coexist with corsets, top hats, and elaborate fashion. The landscape is a fusion of the familiar and the extraordinary, where towering airships navigate the skies and intricately designed automatons carry out daily tasks.

The Divine Armor of the Old Century（Book 2） by lingpeng216

This is one heck of a Victorian-style fantasy novel. Add a spoonful of steam engines to make that darned technology tree come alive! Add a spoonful of love and hatred, so everyone has good reasons to brawl! Add a spoonful of madness to lighten up this gloomy world, and finally, add a spoonful of natural disasters to play the main boss... and so on! Phew, that's a lot! ... Year 931 in the Engerwick Calendar. The city I reside in has been hailed as the most advanced in the West. The main reasons? The world-shaking steam technology, emerging technologies, and the wellspring of chaos. Can't deny it, but the fact remains that people keep flocking here to live. This city always gives you a glimmer of hope, whether it's lies or illusions, but it's so close, within arm's reach, making you risk life and limb. A city of hallucinations. I am one of those dream-chasers.

As chaos engulfed the once-mighty civilization, a beacon of hope emerged amidst the turmoil-the island of Britannia.

They formed the Imperium Britannia, a bastion of strength and resilience, determined to withstand the relentless onslaught of the Gothic Empire.

The Gothic Empire, fueled by a thirst for power and expansion, unleashes its relentless hordes upon the last bastion of resistance. The fate of an empire hangs in the balance as the war rages on. Heroes rise from the ashes, their hearts ablaze with the spirit of defiance.

Prepare to embark on an exhilarating journey into a world where steam and steel collide, where the fate of an empire rests upon the indomitable will of its people.
