Aztec Civilization: Destiny to Conquer America!

Chapter 2119 - 1547: Hmm! These Western Sea Books Plagiarized Your Majesty…_2

"Witnessed by the Chief Divine! The various Japanese Southwestern clans would annually seize the opportunity, sailing small boats to Korea to ’capture prisoners’... Well, not exactly capture prisoners, but mainly to plunder cloth and wealth, and also seize food and livestock, occasionally capturing valuable prisoners. Those like the Gold Shipwright and Caisan Witch Doctor were taken by the Japanese in this manner. And the friendly merchants of the Tiantai Temple even suggested that they have channels to ’pre-order’ Korean craftsmen from the Japanese Southwestern clans. As long as enough gold is given, excellent Korean craftsmen, even various Master Craftsmen can be brought in! By the way, the Japanese Martial Family member who converted to the Chief Divine, Ryuzoji Clan Hiro, is originally from the Japanese Southwestern clans...""Hm? Ryuzoji Clan Hiro, the Japanese Southwestern clans raiding the wealthy Korean coast? The Korea Kingdom, the hereditary nobility and ant-like commoners, culturally prosperous, yet both affluent and destitute, powerful and weak... Isn’t this just like the Maya Tribes in the Eastern Forest Sea? The records once described the Mayapan Kingdom, which is very similar to this Korea Kingdom... Strange, why haven’t these Korea Tribes been conquered by the Japanese across the waters or split into the form of the Maya Sixteen Clans?"

Chimere pondered, marking the location of Korea on the map with a sign of Mayapan. Upon hearing this question, Loshanda hesitated for a while before answering, not too confidently.

"Witnessed by the Chief Divine! The Japanese cannot conquer Korea, and Korea has never split into internal strife... It might be due to the Great Ming Empire further southwest! According to the Japanese Nobility, the south of Korea used to be the ancient land of Baekje, which is the ancestral home origin for many of their nobles. And as early as eight hundred years ago, they dispatched tens of thousands of troops to restore Baekje, launching a western expedition that split the Korea land into three kingdoms..."

"But later, the Japanese army was defeated at a white river mouth by the powerful Great Tang of the Central Plains at that time, which forced them to reluctantly abandon the ancient land of Baekje... As for now, if not for the powerful Great Ming of the Central Plains, consistently protecting Korea and suppressing the Japanese Shogunate, the Great Tlatoani ’General Ashikaga’ would have already crossed the sea to invade Korea during the formation of the Japanese Muromachi Shogunate..."

"Hm? This sounds somewhat like the story of the Teotihuacan Kingdom eight hundred years ago, launching an eastern expedition into the Maya Rainforest, occupying the Divine Capital Tikal. But eventually, Teotihuacan was suddenly struck down by divine disasters from All Gods, collapsing, and was restored by the Maya Tribes..."

"Yes! The teacher is correct... By the way, respected teachers, this time I’ve brought back many ’Inheritance Books’ traded from Tiantai Temple! There’s a record of this part of history within those books called... Mirror... Oh, it’s ’Great Mirror’! Moreover, there are many ’Tang’s Books’ from the Great Ming. Their characters are very similar to the Divine Revelation characters, allowing one to roughly understand and infer their meanings!..."

"Oh?! There’s actually ’Inheritance Books’ from the Western Sea? Quickly! Quickly bring them over and let me take a good look!"

Upon hearing this, Chimere was slightly stunned, then overjoyed. Having heard many prophecies from Your Majesty regarding these ’Inheritance’ from the Western Sea Continent, he studied the square script arduously and is the most adept among the three. With these books for research and entertainment, he no longer needs to spend all day riding horses, painting, observing the moon and stars, but instead can conduct interesting Western Sea studies!

"Deng deng dong..."

Soon, twenty Samurais, panting heavily, lifted ten heavy wooden boxes into the temple of the Chief Divine. Excitedly, Chimere opened the wooden box, wiped away the waterproof charcoal and lime covering the top, peeled off the thickly layered oil-paper wrapping, and revealed a multitude of Western Sea books right before his eyes! He pulled out the thickest book from the top, examining it carefully, it appeared to be three new collections strung together with thread, clearly printed on woodblocks, resembling the ’Book of Ama Colley’.

"’Imitation Collection’? ’Yijian Records’? ’The New Lights’?"

Furrowing his brows, Chimere flipped rapidly through the pages, encountering numerous unfamiliar characters. He also searched for illustrations among them, finding only a few scattered ones. The few illustrations he reluctantly found, upon closer inspection, all featured a man and a woman closely together, with some even depicting bizarre ’foxes and men’, as well as ’cats teasing butterflies’.

"...???"

Confused, Chimere stared, as did Miki, who furrowed his brows too. Both turned to look at Loshanda simultaneously, making Loshanda break out in a sweat. He quickly opened the three smallest wooden boxes and anxiously spoke up.

"Esteemed teachers... the books delivered by Tiantai Temple, most are not of significant value, things like ’Popular Spirits’, ’Strange Stories of Men and Women’... are meant for commoners to read. The truly precious ’Inheritance History Books’ and ’religious books’ are mainly within these three boxes!"

"Here! Like these four ’Four Mirrors’, including the previously mentioned ’Great Mirror’, are the most easily found ’Inheritance History Books’ of Japan. And this ’Comprehensive History of Affairs from the Great Ming’ transmitted to Japan is another ’Inheritance History Book’... Of course, these are relatively difficult to read, the easier ones to understand would be this box, with titles like ’Taiping Guangji’, ’Great Song Xuanhe Legacy’, ’Three Kingdoms Popularized’..."

"Oh?!"

With eager anticipation, Chimere moved forward and quickly browsed through the ’Popular History Books’ in the box, finally revealing a smile on his face. He turned to Miki, speaking with a grin.

"Under the protection of the Chief Divine! Then let this box of books remain on the island for me to read!"

"...Ah, alright!"

Miki pondered briefly, then nodded with a smile, agreeing to the decision on the books brought back by Loshanda. Subsequently, he composed himself, eyes glinting, questioning Loshanda.
