This is an empire where money is power.
The "Bank and Gold Guild" is like an invisible monarch, holding the scepter of bonds and interest rates, manipulating war and peace. Kings and electors are just numbers on their ledgers.
Joshua, a mathematical genius with a blood feud, is the only flaw in the Iron Curtain. He holds the "interest rate code" that can subvert everything, but he has chosen a more dangerous path - not to destroy, but to rebuild.
He linked up with Greta, who inherited the printing house and controlled underground intelligence, and Leonhardt, the bank heir who was trapped in a golden cage and whose conscience was still intact. The three formed the "Regicide Alliance" and used finance as a weapon to declare war on the old world.
They founded civilian banks and used credit certificates rooted in trust to fight against cold metal currencies;
They launched a short-selling sniper attack and threw the financial noose to the supreme divine power in Rome;
They built a huge underground financial kingdom between imperial power, divine power and financial power.
This is a war between abacus and sword, a game between trust and power. When friendship and love are tempered in the fire, when sacrifice becomes the ultimate bargaining chip, what they set off is not only a financial storm, but also an ultimate revolution aimed at killing the old gods and crowning the new world.
When the last card falls, the crown and the Holy Seat are reduced to dust.
Purpose: When the old system alienated people into numbers, we chose to use numbers to recast human dignity.
