v9 Chapter 24: Colossus of Hades

Plessinas put the first board on the table, and Hippopolis immediately sighed: "Well-powered Hades god!"

I saw Hades with black hair and long beard drawn on the wooden board. He stood with his head raised and straight, holding a sharp three-pronged fork in his right hand, holding a scale for judging good and evil in his left hand, wearing a large black coat, eyes, and face. Solemn, it is really magnificent!

Since this is not a painting after all, but a statue to be cast, Hardis also designed a thick base under his feet so that he can stand on the top of the mountain steadily, and the data is also marked on the upper left corner of the wooden board: The idol and its base are 14 meters high and 2.5 meters wide. It is estimated that bronze # tons (the idols placed outside the temple can no longer be made of wood, after all, it is easy to be damaged by wind and rain for many years. Must be made of soft bronze) ...

"It is really a good design!" Dafus praised sincerely.

"This is the design of Miliktos." Plessinas added.

Dafus nodded, he knew that Miliktos was a famous carving master in the kingdom, and was now responsible for the casting of idols in the main temple.

Then Dafus looked at a few more wooden boards, which are all very good works, but they are almost the same in design.

Daphs rubbed his eyes, feeling a little visually tired. At this time, he heard Plessinglas said, "Sir, there is still a design here, and our priests are unanimously opposed to let it pass, but I think this piece is very special, so I would like to ask you to take a look again."

哦 "Oh? What kind of design makes you disagree?" Davers was curious.

When Plessinas placed the board on the table, everyone's eyes were attracted to it: I saw Hades on the board holding a double-fork in his right hand and a soul about to be punished in his left hand. He was scratching his head and begging for forgiveness; Hades had his left foot behind and his right foot in front, his whole body twitched slightly, and he bowed his head slightly, looking at the soul in his left hand, his face showing mercy; The three-headed dog carved Earberos, but the image was not stingy. Instead, he stretched his head like a domestic dog and licked Hades's left hand ...

It is no wonder that the priests did not like this design, because the designer made Hades more like a kind old man, thus lacking the dignity of dignity.

Henepolis and Aristilas, who were present, were also surprised by the designer's boldness.

莱 Plessinas carefully looked at Daphs's look. After all, King Daphs was a descendant of Hades. He was worried that such a bold design would anger the king and even anger him?

的 The atmosphere in the office is quiet and weird ...

At this time, Daphs asked quietly, "Plessinas, why do you insist on leaving this design despite the opposition of other priests?"

"Your Majesty ... because I feel this kind of work when I see this work, I think if believers stand on the top of the mountain, the believers will also feel kind when they see him ... Plesinas listens to Daphs's question With a bottom in mind, he said truthfully, "I remember when you asked me to be the priest of Hades," Hades was by no means indifferent and harsh, it was because he cared for humans that he Choose to stay in the underworld ... '; You also warned us,' As a priest of Hades, we must be passionate about our believers, not high above them, and actively help them solve their difficulties ... 'I think this design is exactly what Meet your requirements! "

"Good!" Davers praised loudly: "You deserve to be the priest of the scepter of Hades!"

"Thank Your Majesty for praise!" Plessinas responded calmly. When he was young, he was radical and unscrupulous. He was not voluntarily when he first became the priest of Hades, but after so many years studying the divine scriptures and being influenced by it day and night, his body and mind gradually changed and became humble. Easygoing, compassionate.

"If such a statue of Hades stands on the top of the mountain, everyone who sees his kingdom will feel deeply that having such a benevolent **** blessing the kingdom will make them feel warm and at ease. At the same time, he reminded us that we should always be concerned about our people! "Dafus solemnly said, pressing on the wooden board.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Plessinas and the two priests, Hippopolis, and Aristilas, looked at each other perfectly, and now they can be sure that Davers has selected this board design.

"Well, why is there no base in the design of this idol?" Hannipolis suddenly found a question: "This should be ignored by the creator. According to the data indicated above, it is also 14 meters, and the body is Leaning forward can easily fall without a base. "

"I specifically asked the creator about this, and he told me that this idol does not need a base to stand firmly." Plessingus pointed at the wooden board and explained carefully: "He called this three points Support, you see, the right foot with the double fork and Hades moving forward is used as a fulcrum, and the left foot behind is another fulcrum— "

"Where's another fulcrum?" Hannipolis looked at the picture on the wooden board with some confusion.

"It should be a three-headed dog. He raised his head and licked Hades's left arm, which was actually connected to the idol as another fulcrum on the left, and the idol was bent over, lowering the center of gravity. Under the condition of stable support, the idol is more stable, and the designer's idea is very clever! "Daves praised.

"At the first glance, I saw the key to the problem. I didn't understand it at the time. Fortunately, he prepared a small wooden sculpture exactly the same as the idol in advance and showed it to me. It is indeed very stable. And Your Majesty, look at this! "Plesinas pointed to the lower right corner of the board.

"This is the position ... what does this number mean?" Davers looked at it, a little confused.

"His Majesty, this is the latest Pythagorean writing method for azimuth angles in Tarantum. According to the designer, the idol should be erected on the edge of a cliff southwest of the main temple, 68 kilometers away from the temple. Meters, the front of the idol and the central axis of the main temple are 30 degrees. After the idol is completed, he will overlook most of the city, and can reflect the sun to the maximum extent during the day, so that boats entering and exiting the crater can be Seeing the flash of idols! "Plessinas was a little excited when he said the last sentence.

"It seems that this designer is really attentive, taking all aspects into consideration!" Davers said in his heart, and asked, "Listening to you just now, he is Tarantum? Tarantu A disciple of the Mpythagoras? What's your name? "

"His Majesty, this designer is called Alixon, a member of the former Tarantum Archon Architect, a student of Lucifers, the leader of the Pythagoras School ..." Plesinas details Doing an introduction.

A math student actually designed such an excellent statue! This didn't surprise everyone in the room, because many scholars in this era have multiple knowledge. Although mathematics and art seem to have little connection, the Pythagoras school discovered sculpture and mathematics very early. It is well-known that the golden section of paintings created their unique aesthetics.

Alixon ... Achieta ... Daves heard this long-lost name and suddenly felt a little lost, and then he remembered his daughter's rude young man who kept mumbling at home, and his face was bearable. There was a smile: "Although he is young, he can design such an excellent idol. It shows that he is very talented. He can be responsible for casting the idol. You are responsible for supervising and assisting him."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Plessinas finally relieved.

……………………………………

The arrest of Servius, Frius, Oulus and others by the Turui inspectors quickly began. As the attention of the people was focused on "the army will go to the border to defend", so There are no waves.

与 此 At the same time, officials from the Slave Management Office came to the Turui Slave Camp, www.novelhall.com, to reward Maximus, the actor who contributed to the incident.

After knowing this, Icarus, the head of the camp, asked: "Can you wait until the end of the task of providing stone for the main temple before announcing it, because Massimus is an excellent slave captain. Team quarrying is very efficient. "

The puppet official only said one sentence: "This is your majesty's order, which is required to be executed immediately!"

Acarus dare not talk more.

This morning, after the slaves had breakfast, they all gathered in the square. The slave management official announced the order publicly: granting Brutus Massims freedom.

Countless slaves cast their envious eyes on Massims, and Massims was hit by this sudden happiness, and for a while he was a bit stunned, and his mind kept thinking about a voice: Free! I am finally free! ...

Until someone's eyes stabbed at him like a sharp sword, making him suddenly hurt.

Gaius, a fellow who was very close to him now looks at him like an enemy, because the order announced by the official made it clear: "... Given that Massimus bravely exposed some Romans' attempts to undermine the kingdom The conspiracy of order maintains the stability of the kingdom ... I hope everyone will learn from Massims, as long as you truly safeguard the kingdom, the kingdom will not ignore your contribution! ... "

"Mathims, you traitor!" Gauss roared, rushed up, and slammed Massims.

Massims did not refute or resist, and allowed Gaius to catch him, but Gauss's fist was not smashed because the slaves around him hugged him.
