Don't call me evil god

Even if they took the shortest route to cross the trade zone, it took Gale and his companions nearly three hours.

It was already afternoon when they arrived at the old city.

The old city was the first and earliest city built by Starosh, and it is almost located in the center of the capital city.

The most local people of the capital city live here, and many of them are citizens of the capital city who have been passed down for more than ten generations.

Living in the capital city, even if you don’t know anything, as long as you have enough strength and physical strength, you can find a job to make a living. You can go to the dock in the west of the city to be a porter or a transporter. Those who are smarter can also find a suitable job in the trade zone.

Even if you really encounter a bad accident, the dual guarantee of the royal family and the Glorious God Church is enough to help people overcome the difficulties they are facing. Therefore, most of the time, you don’t have to worry about bankruptcy and poverty, and you have to sell your house and leave the capital.

The architectural style and appearance of the house look a bit old.

However, because the area of ​​the capital is limited, it is a super city with a population of more than one million. Even if the old house in the old city is dilapidated, the housing price will still be a sky-high figure.

It's not the houses that are expensive, but the land in the capital.

The permanent population here is almost saturated. If no one moves out, it's naturally difficult for anyone to move in.

Owning a property in the capital is a distant dream for almost all citizens of the kingdom outside the capital.

Most people who come to the capital from other places can only rent a bed in the new city in the southeast of the city as a temporary shelter.

There are some tall buildings among the old houses in the old city, which are often the churches of a certain god.

The faith structure of this city is extremely complex.

The sacred territory of the Glowing God in the southwest of the city represents the mainstream faith of the capital. Whether there is something wrong or not, citizens are willing to seek the protection and blessing of the Glowing God.

Such as the God of Wealth, the God of Justice, the God of Harvest, the God of Casting, the God of Craftsmen, the God of Wilderness... These gods also have their own churches and clergy in the capital.

It is said that even the God of Shadow has a church in an unknown corner of the sewers of the capital, which is a gathering place for pickpockets and thieves in the capital.

Continuing westward from the old city, you will eventually reach the port area, where the busy and busy Jingshui Port is.

The magical thing is that the sea near Jingshui Port is calm all year round. The natural high-quality port provides Starosh with a convenient commercial transportation environment, allowing this city with a unique geographical location to develop rapidly since the establishment of the kingdom.

To the north of the old city, the northwest of the city belongs to the scope of the Mage District.

The Palace Arcane Academy, the Magic Hermitage, and more than a dozen Mage Towers are located here. It is the most active place in the entire capital magic network.

As for the higher area in the northeast of the capital, it is the noble royal territory.

A small area between the Mage District and the Royal Territory has opened up a train station leading to the Stone Fort.

The size of the entire capital has reached an astonishing 70 square kilometers!

Equivalent to more than 30 Ceylon cities!

This most dazzling pearl of civilization on the continent of Plantis can successfully feed so many citizens, and the power of divine arts has played a great role.

The densely scattered villages on the entire Sanctuary Plain fill every piece of arable land. With the help of the harvest divine arts, crops have a stable and abundant yield every year, and the livestock and poultry raised in every household saturate the large amount of agricultural and animal husbandry products in Starosh.

According to incomplete statistics, there are probably millions of chickens, geese, and ducks raised in the Sanctuary Plain, as well as hundreds of thousands of meat animals such as dairy cows and castrated pigs, and a large number of sheep for wool production.

The development of the royal capital Starosh to the present, divine help, geographical advantages and human harmony are indispensable, which is a miracle that cannot be replicated in theory.

Although Norwen's Church of Knowledge is in full swing in the Ceylon region, in fact, the Dawn City District, which was expanded based on the town of Chim, has only developed a population of tens of thousands of people.

Compared with the royal capital Starosh with a history of nearly a thousand years, it is not at the same order of magnitude at all.

Anyone who comes to the capital for the first time will be shocked by its huge scale and prosperous order.

…

Walking in the streets and alleys of the old city, Gale and the other four soon realized an embarrassing thing:

They were lost!

The old city has been repaired and renovated again and again, and the old houses have been expanded and covered. On the basis of the extremely high population density, it is no exaggeration to say that it has now become an intricate maze.

In addition to the road signs pointing to the avenue, those nameless streets and alleys are often twisted and crooked. If you go in from this end and turn a few corners, you will completely lose track of where you are.

After going around for a long time, when the eyes suddenly opened up, the four people were dumbfounded.

They circled back to the edge of the trade zone again!

The destination of this trip was to find Miranda's home in the old city. Although Miranda sent the specific location to Gale in advance, the latter...it was difficult for the latter to accurately find the corresponding streets and alleys in an unfamiliar place.

I sent a message to Miranda and Pete using the instant messenger, but I didn't get a response. They seemed to be busy with other things and had no time to pay attention to new messages.

Ask for directions from the locals in the old city?

Gale tried to find a young woman passing by:

"Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, um..."

The other party just listened to the beginning, glanced at Gale's appearance, and sneered disdainfully from his nose.

"Don't bother me, I don't care!"

Although she used the pronunciation of the common language, there was a big difference in the tone and pronunciation details from Gale.

Gale's expression froze.

He hit a soft nail for no reason.

Another middle-aged woman who looked like a local in the capital changed:

"Madam, I'm sorry to bother you..."

"I don't care, I don't care!"

Almost the same reaction, but more impatient.

Gale was a little angry: "What's the situation? Are the locals in the capital so unfriendly?"

The person who answered this question was Dolan. He raised his hand carefully and said: "Ahem, Mr. Franklin, I should have heard some rumors about the capital."

"They are not unfriendly, but... many people in the capital look down on the common accent on the eastern border."

"Huh?"

Brandon and Rena were also a little surprised.

One of them was born and raised in Green Harbor, and the other is from the western part of the kingdom. Although their accents are different from those of Pete Gale and others, it does not affect communication, and no one looks down on the other.

Dolan hesitated and said, "We are in the capital, uh, maybe, I mean maybe, we need to control our accents a little and try to be as close to the standard pronunciation of the common language as possible."

Gale almost laughed on the spot.

...

There's more in the evening! A little later!
