In the Age of Discovery, the first to taste the sweetness of monopoly was the Kingdom of Choice, the overlord of the sea.

Beatrice, who almost sat on the throne of the Golden Empire, once said:

"This sea belongs only to Castile, and the other Hattings, Iris, the Netherlands, and the Rhine League are just a pack of hyenas who want to share the carrion of their prey.

When we take advantage of the blood sacrifice of the Azks to the [Skinning Lord] and take down the two empires in one fell swoop, we will drive them all out of Bantaan. ”

This shows how determined they are to ensure their monopoly position.

These pioneers, who were the first to eat crabs, took the lead in finding the Bantaan Islands, which were flowing with honey and milk, with a large number of holy relics similar to the [First Overseas Exploration Order] in their hands.

Since 100 years ago, it has completely monopolized the overseas routes of the "first circulation belt" for a long time, as well as the supply channels of Bantaan.

In addition to the countless real money, large trade balances were repeatedly earned between the indigenous and Old World countries.

Naturally, all the countries of the Old World were jealous of their gold and silver gains, precious spices, and all other overseas specialties.

Find ways to bypass this black-hearted middleman who eats natives and eats them, and break his monopoly.

In order to ensure its monopoly, the Kingdom of Castile has prepared to fully implement a blockade and embargo on the first circulation.

There is no problem with local development, but if a merchant ship is found to be transporting prohibited goods, it will be confiscated immediately.

This is to rely on the "invincible armada" in hand to implement a monopoly of force.

Some people say that monopoly can bring all kinds of harm, but it is only because the person who says it is not a monopolist himself.

If there is an opportunity to achieve a monopoly, who would refuse the opportunity to make easy excess profits?

Bang la blah

Several unbreakable golden anchor chains burst out of the air, piercing a gold-page contract written in lingua franca and Taya.

The seals stamped on it by the representatives of all parties lit up one after another.

"Then the franchise authorization between Pioneer Pilot and the Taya Empire, the contract is established!"

The written contract is secondary, and the invisible chains have been linked together along the sea of the Tylenol's collective subconscious, connecting the spiritual islands of several of them.

The two great shamans, the prince who had woken up again, all felt the [anchor] on their bodies suddenly tighten.

Even if he didn't take up the [Ladder of Glory] like the people of the Old World, it was as if he had anchored the Silver Law, and he felt that his spirituality was obviously much more down-to-earth.

"Hey, the strength of the contract can be so high? Even strengthened my anchorage extraordinarily. ”

"Me too. Ever since the Black Witchcraft was promoted to the Third Order, the whispers that had been heard in my ears had significantly weakened a lot.

My spirituality is rising again in the direction of divinity. ”

They only thought that Byron had used some kind of Inquisition sequence oddity prop.

But he didn't realize that the young man and woman in front of him would be the heir and regent of the golden empire of the Bantaan Islands on the mysterious side.

They have just been put on the Golden Empire's legal net.

You must know that the Azk Empire, through that unprecedented grand blood sacrifice ceremony, has already connected all the Taíno groups in the entire Bantaan Islands into a whole.

The more city-states and citizens anchored by the Golden Law, the deeper the rule over them, and the stronger the Law Network will be!

Byron looked at several indigenous high-ranking people who were surprised and delighted, and an unfathomable smile appeared on his face:

"The fallen Azks, as well as Cortés the Conqueror, have done outstanding things for me.

The Taíno people have their own national conditions here.

The Bantaan Islands are not protected by the Silver Law, and are filled with strong essentia tides, and are full of forbidden areas that are forbidden to the living.

Guardian spirits, totem poles, and even the tallest thirteen-story pyramid still have a very limited range of protection, and they can't form a large area of vast safety zone at all.

A city-state with a city as its core is their only option at the moment.

The city-states in the vast land of Yucatan are divided into one disconnected dot after another by the vast expanse of primeval jungle and forbidden areas.

In order to unify all the Taítans and establish a golden empire, it is necessary to rely on the unified [Golden Law].

Use a huge legal net to connect the scattered dots into a line, form a net, and finally cast a spiritual dam to protect the entire race.

In order to replicate the vast spiritual continent like the Old World.

This contract to open the franchise is the starting point of the expansion of the Golden Empire. ”

The contract stipulates:

All city-states that have been rescued by Byron will voluntarily invite the Vanguard Pilot Colony Company to set up branches or representative offices in their city-states.

They were given exclusive monopoly rights against merchants of the Old World.

Transactions included: buying iron, swords, guns, ships, textiles, fertilizers, and selling spices, gold and silver, minerals, herbs, and skins from the Old World

In fact, it is equivalent to each state outsourcing its own "Ministry of Commerce" to them.

In addition, the Pioneer Pilot Colonial Trading Company also has the right to build forts on the land demarcated by the relevant parties to protect their own trading houses

Appoint a governor plenipotentiary, recruit soldiers, and further cooperate with the local ruler in many ways.

Moreover, Byron had in his possession a copy of the Pioneer Order issued by Governor Hattings (Chapter 134).

As long as the land he carved out, it was nominally a colony belonging to the Hattings, protected by the kingdom and the House of York.

Compared to the habitual murder and arson, the genocidal kingdom of Castile, they have taken a very different path.

Putting away the page of the contract, Byron smiled:

"By entrusting economic power and even part of the governance power and defense power to the Vanguard Colonization Company, the major city-states have achieved de facto armed economic colonization.

Wouldn't it be easy to support agents close to us in the economically backward city-states and establish a shadow empire equivalent to the Emperor Taishang?

This land will also be the perfect stage for Catherine to perform her supreme skills!

The more city-states that make the contract in the future, the stronger and more extensive my Golden Law will be.

In addition, the Azk emperor [Conqueror] Cortés in the north has begun to regroup his supporters.

I just want to ask, who else?

Even if the Castilian and Pirate King [Ocean's Throne] men want this east-west route, they must open their eyes and take a good look at who will die! ”

As soon as the golden light in front of him dissipated, Byron noticed that several high-ranking indigenous people on the opposite side were still staring at him.

Knowing that they are still waiting to come up with a solution that can cure the Tylens on a large scale.

So he didn't sell it anymore, and stretched out his hand to the great shaman of Chichen Itza, Iokotel:

"Great Shaman, please give me the Crystal Skull No. 8."

The latter did not hesitate any longer, and carefully removed the crystal skull from the cane.

Because at the beginning, Byron asked Geronimo to bring back the message, that he needed to borrow this holy relic in order to completely eradicate the plague.

Just before handing it to him, the great shaman said very solemnly:

"Mr. Byron, just as there are good and bad men among the Tylenols, so there are outsiders.

The confrontation between divinity and bestiality is endless, and has nothing to do with the color of a person's skin.

You have helped the city of Chichen Itza through its perils on several occasions, and you have proven to be a true friend to us, even more trustworthy than many of the nobles in the city-state.

I might as well tell you a big secret about these crystal skulls.

What you may not know is that the Taya Empire had been in decline for hundreds of years before outsiders arrived in the Bantaan Islands.

Eventually, with the civil strife in the royal city, the Taya Empire completely collapsed, and the thirteen crystal skeletons enshrined in the thirteen-story pyramid were scattered and lost.

There are only three skulls still in the Taya city-state, and each of our three city-states has one of them.

But because of the broken generations, even the ancient epics that can activate them have not been passed down. ”

The implication is that Skeleton Eight does not play the true role of a holy relic.

Then he changed the conversation and continued:

However, the last great shaman also left a prophecy.

In the future, if someone can recollect the thirteen Crystal Skulls, he will become the new emperor of the empire.

Because once the thirteen Crystal Skulls have been collected, they will reveal to us the secrets of the past and the future through the mouth of the third skeleton [Corn God], which symbolizes life and abundance, and is the only one that can speak.

Resolve strife and reunite the Taya Empire. ”

As soon as the words fell.

A new record appeared in the logbook, [Secret: The Secret of the Thirteen Crystal Skulls of the Taya Empire, Historical Influence 29, Solution Density 15%].

Byron's eyes lit up.

He clearly remembered that the logbook once said:

"Because of the long blood sacrifice that lasted for thousands of years, the thirteen crystal skeletons gathered the knowledge contained in countless sacrifices and condensed the essence of the entire Taya civilization.

A single crystal skeleton is a [second-level holy relic] whose influence is limited to one city and one place.

But once someone can collect all thirteen, they can strengthen each other and reach the level of a zero-level holy relic.

Please keep up the captain's efforts and strive to collect the thirteen crystal skulls as soon as possible and become the successor of the Taya civilization. ”

The collective subconscious of the Old World was able to merge because of the common belief in the Creator among all nations and groups.

Apparently this once-glorious ancient civilization has tried something similar.

With thirteen crystal skeletons, which are also the thirteen great kings of the past, as a medium, all the tribes in the entire empire are united into a whole through the inheritance of civilization and blood sacrifices.

Unfortunately, in the end, it failed.

"Although the material civilization of the Taya Empire has developed to a certain extent, it has not even stepped into the Bronze Age, and it has not even invented the wheel.

But the level of evolution of the transcendent civilization is only a cut below that of the Old World.

I'll set a small goal first, collect thirteen crystal skeletons, and send warmth to all the Tylenols.

And legend has it that in the end, it will be the talking skeleton number three who will reveal the future?

Then I firmly believe that when the third child shouts out, it must be: Tayaxing, King Byron!

The feeling of the Taya civilization announcing the destiny of heaven through the mouth of a different person is really too flavorful. ”
