427 Standing Statue (Part 2)

"His Majesty the Pope, the news has spread. Now in the base, the topic of discussion is basically the issue of His Majesty the Pope's statue." Zhao Kuangyuan reported.

"Very good, we also need your secret power to help the believers." Tang Fan said.

Because there are not many believers now, and they have not formed a large scale, and they have no awareness. They still need some help and guidance to slowly get on the right track. By doing this, Tang Fan is paving the way for the believers and also paving the way for himself.

paving.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Pope." Zhao Kuangyuan said. Now Zhao Kuangyuan also belongs to the ranks of believers, but he is only a casual believer.

Of course, Zhao Kuangyuan's belief is stronger than those of those outside the divine religion.

Now, the people in the base are just discussing. For a while, they can't come up with any effective plan to implement, so they need some help, and this is exactly what Tang Fan wants Zhao Kuangyuan to do.

Then, with Zhao Kuangyuan's series of arrangements, the matter of erecting a statue for His Majesty the Great Pope began to get on the right track.

Of course, Zhao Kuangyuan's fueling of the situation was done in secret, and no third person knew about it except himself and Tang Fan, who ordered him to handle the matter.

Finally, a few days after the news broke, construction began.

Among the more than 20,000 believers, four of them are carvers and several carving apprentices. They did not abandon their skills because of the arrival of the end of the world, because they were also used in the construction of the base at that time, and after that, they

His work is also related to sculpture, and he makes a living from it.

These four carvers are all senior carving masters, each with their own unique attainments, but this time, the four of them worked together, and also let the carving apprentices act as assistants.

Because they are believers, they have to erect a statue for His Majesty the Pope, whom they believe in. That feeling makes them feel extremely happy, as if nothing in the world can compare with it.

Completely willingly.

"How big do you think this statue should be?"

"Twenty meters, it's not difficult for us."

"No, twenty meters is too low. It doesn't stand out at all. According to me, it should be at least fifty meters."

"It's only fifty meters, so low, a hundred meters."

"What! One hundred meters, it's impossible. A hundred meters high, that's a huge project, and it's difficult to complete in a short time."

Note that what he said is not that it cannot be completed, but that it is difficult to complete in a short time.

"If you want to do it, do it the best, otherwise don't do it. This is my consistent philosophy. I think you also understand in your heart that erecting a statue for our great Pope is an extremely solemn and sacred thing.

, there is nothing sloppy about it, it is the symbol of our base and the belief in our hearts."

"That's right, erect a statue of 100 meters."

Finally, the proposal of the 100-meter statue was unanimously approved, and then, naturally, it started.

The first is material selection. In this era, it is not easy to find materials that can directly carve a hundred-meter statue. It is very huge. In the end, a synthetic method was adopted to create a mixed huge stone.

Then some equipment was used to perform preliminary cutting, processing and polishing of this huge stone to form the basic outline of a statue.

This work took a full ten days to complete. Ten days later, finally, the outline of a huge statue appeared in front of everyone, standing in the center of the square.

This was also the result of their discussion. They sculpted it in the center of the base square so that other believers could witness the formation of the statue with their own eyes. This would once again deepen the impression in their hearts.

Of course, carving is a delicate work and an art that cannot be disturbed originally. However, in order to allow all believers and other non-believers to witness the formation of the statue with their own eyes, these four master sculptors,

It also took a lot of thought.

In order not to be disturbed, they organized believers and asked the believers to clear the square and circle it to form a protection, making the square a thousand meters wide like a vacuum zone, with only the outline of a hundred-meter-high statue.

, and the carving masters and carving apprentices who can enter and exit it.

Believers are very willing to serve as guards, and some of them are magic warriors, and they voluntarily take on the responsibility of patrolling guards.

Of course, all of this is under the supervision of Tang Fan and others, who are keeping an eye on it at all times.

The 100-meter-long statue is surrounded by chains and bridges. The master sculptors started carving from the head. This task is hundreds of times more difficult and delicate than the initial outline cutting.

At this time, an indescribable aura filled the air, and a team of people appeared, causing a small commotion.

"His Majesty the Pope has learned that you are erecting a statue for His Majesty the Pope, and hereby sends us to protect you." Fang Ming led the Expeditionary Legion's Great Sword Demon-Slaying Team.

"His Majesty the Pope is merciful." Li Yuan, as the temporary person in charge, immediately knelt down in the direction of the Eternal God Religion to express his piety and gratitude. Other believers nearby also knelt down and shouted.

When the masters in the carving learned that His Majesty the Pope had sent powerful warriors to protect them, they were all grateful from the bottom of their hearts. Although, protection seems a bit inappropriate here.

Time passed day by day, and every day, believers took the initiative to come here to serve as guards. And late at night, after the carving work was completed, when the master and apprentices returned to rest, Fang Ming led the team of demon-slayers with big swords.

Stay here to protect and prevent anyone from causing damage here, whether intentional or unintentional.

Of course, more than 20,000 believers showed up in batches after consultation and took turns to ensure that thousands of people surrounded the square every second.

Every day, in addition to practicing, Tang Fan would use his mental power to observe the carving process of the statue. He watched the statue being perfected day by day, and the outline gradually became clearer.

During this period of time, more and more outsiders have entered the Ares Base.

"In about another month, the statue should be completed."

Looking at the progress of the statue every day, Tang Fan secretly estimated that in almost a month, the statue should be finished. By that time, it will be the time to officially spread the faith, and during this time,

Tang Fan was not idle, he also made a lot of arrangements.
