Surrounding Guard City in the northwest, there is a ring of mountains—tall and covered in dense forests, full of natural hazards and shrouded in mists, providing a haven for bands of bandits.
Every year, Guard City must send forces to exterminate these bandits, but the results are always minimal.
First, there are too many bandit groups, and second, there are skilled fighters among the bandits, along with cunning individuals, making the first extermination campaign by Guard City always a costly one.
Kunlun Mountain, previously called Shuanggushan or \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*shan, and to its south are other peaks like Guinaoshan, Dachashan, and so forth. One of these, Breakback Mountain, is the largest bandit stronghold in the northwest.
This stronghold houses bandits with God King Level fighters, so whenever Guard City heads to Breakback Mountain for a bandit purge, it does so with elite fighters from The Eight Great Families.
