Banji Township is more of a city than a township, but because of its location on the border and for other reasons, the administration is very chaotic, and the level of the administrative is correspondingly lower than it should be.

This town is located in a place surrounded by towering mountains.

Surrounded by high mountains to the east and north, and to the west is a river called "Ezusa", which flows east-west - 33 meters at its narrowest point and 18 meters deep in the middle of the river, and is the main route of transportation between here and the border fortress "Cyprus" to the northwest.

The remaining southern flank was an ideal place for the enemy to attack, but there was only one path leading to the interior of Ustan and the rest of the place was a large forest. So there was no regular army here, just a few hundred infantry and a few militia auxiliaries.

It serves as a distribution center and transit point for supplies delivered on the front line of the border. In order to provide logistics for the military more haode. There is a magic factory for the production of magic costumes, which are used by magicians as support when performing magic tricks, several alchemy laboratories for the production of various alchemical items and enchanting weapons and armor, and seven or eight potions factories for the production of potions.

The cool breeze blowing down from the top of the mountain turns the huge blades of the windmill around, and the water of the river "Zusa" can be used to water the crops. In this rich and safe city, where people and nature live in harmony, a variety of people and things come together.

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that it is on the border and surrounded by forests, which are often accompanied by a large number of magical beasts, precious and rare magic materials, and perhaps even various treasures left by their predecessors.

Hordes of mercenaries and thieves come here to hunt magical beasts, search for rare magic materials, search for treasures, and be hired by the army.

Caravans arrived, trading with the army, with the mercenaries, with the clergy of the Church, and even with bands of thieves and criminals.

Merchants brought all kinds of daily necessities, military supplies, truckloads of armor, weapons, potions, and strange things, and when they returned, the carts were loaded with magical beasts, materials, ores, precious metals, and slaves of various races.

Later, the number of people who made a living from these things and used the city as a base gradually increased.

The name here is Banji.

Craftsmen used the abundance of stone to build countless houses in the city. And it's not just about building, it's about polishing the surface of a building or painting patterns on the roof.

In the morning, before dawn, people could already be seen busy in the streets of the city, and when the sun rose, the number of residents, mercenaries, adventurers, artisans, and merchants who traveled between the city and the countryside increased. If anyone who has just come from the countryside to the city sees this, they will be amazed at how many people there are on Shijie - Banji is such a prosperous place.

Even after dark, the crowd on the street corner does not disperse until late. The time for the town to fall silent is pitifully short compared to that of the village.

The year 3772 of the Epistle of the Gods, spring, and now

Horse-drawn carriages, slowly driving into them, weave back and forth through the bustling and complex streets. Listening to the sounds around me, the shouts of the merchants, and the recitation of the scriptures of the Church of the Gods, one after another. Is it the laughter of the street prostitutes, the roars of the mercenaries, or even the dull or crisp sound of the collision of limbs and the intersection of weapons?

The carriage turned an intersection and saw a group of mercenaries fighting in a ball, slashing with real knives and guns, and even the light of magic shining from time to time. Scattered around the area were fallen shelves, destroyed buildings, dead bodies and wounded people all over the ground, blood stains all over the ground, some still flowing slowly and some had become dim stains, it was clear that this kind of thing had happened here more than once, and it was a mess for the eyes. Pedestrians passing by hurriedly did not even look at the place, as if they had become accustomed to it.

It's a chaotic city, and it deserves to have the highest crime rate in Urstein. Kylelius casually leaned on the back of the carriage and looked out the window, sneering in his heart.

Leave the thoughts that run through your head behind. Kylelius began to think back to the mission he had come from.

This time, Kylelius ostensibly came to replace the former priest of Banky Town, who died violently for unknown reasons ten days earlier, and became the new priest and acting blackcoat of the town.

Only "on the surface", of course.

As mentioned earlier, this is a town with the highest crime rate in the country. For some well-known reasons, there are a large number of mercenary groups, bandits, killers, criminals, unscrupulous traders, and slave traders.

Overall, this town with a long-term population of 30,000 or 40,000 people has attracted more than a third of the local population. Also because it is located on the border, it is full of spies and eyeliner from various organizations in various countries.

For example, the Special District of Angola on the border with the Kingdom of Urstein.

In the first year of the Calendar of the Gods, that is, more than 3,700 years ago, when the gods of the heavenly kingdom had just ascended to the throne and their faith in the world was not stable enough, Titar Bixia, the representative of the new god Shili, and Caedis, the lord of the underworld and the king of hell, the representative of the old Shijie gods, signed an agreement in the presence of the contract knight Lancelot.

One of the terms of the agreement was that the old gods had the same rights as the new gods of heaven to preach on earth.

But because the war on earth is a complete victory for the new gods, this clause is very dissatisfying to the other new gods.

So the king of the sky and the lord of the white clouds, 'Cerflo' Bixia, proposed a compromise solution - to set aside a place on the main road as a special zone, allowing the old gods to set up a church here to spread the faith.

Both sides felt acceptable. The New Gods felt that the entire continent was their territory, and that it was just a small special zone, which was really nothing. And although the old gods were defeated, their strength was still there, and the dog jumped over the wall when he was in a hurry, not to mention a group of gods. As long as they admit defeat, it doesn't matter if they make such a small concession.

And for the old gods, although they did not achieve the desired goal and only got a small piece of territory, but, although the territory is small, but there is a bridgehead in the world, how to preach in the future, then, hehe, the old gods smiled and said nothing.

As for the validity of the Entente.

Although Lancelot was a new god, because of his priesthood, the gods were confident in the execution of this agreement. Lancelot's priesthood is a contract, and he is the main god of the knights, and whoever violates the rules is against Lancelot - as the main god of knights, Lancelot is also one of the most powerful martial arts factions among the gods.

In the end, the two sides reached an understanding and each signed their own god names. This special zone is the "Angola" special zone.
