Eunice and Avia came to the Hill of the Gods this time because Christoya had a cold and was seriously ill, and although she had undergone active treatment, it had been five or six days and had not completely improved, and Eunice hoped that her mother's illness would be cured sooner, so she decided to ask Hades for protection.

The main temple of Hades is being rebuilt, and in order not to be disturbed, the priests have already informed the believers to go to other Hades temples in the outer city of Turii to worship as much as possible, but in the past, when her parents were sick several times, Eunice came to the main temple to pray, and it was quite miraculous, so she stubbornly chose to come to the Celestial Hill.

A group of people went up the hill and immediately alarmed the priest of the scepter, Pleshnas.

The rebuilding of the main temple of Hades was a top priority for the kingdom, and even more so for Hades' priestly community, where Plesinus spent almost every day, overseeing the construction process, helping to coordinate some of the problems that came his way, and even pushing off many senate meetings.

After learning about the intention of the two princesses, Plesinas dared to slack off, and immediately arranged for the priests to take care of the temporary temple for them to worship and pray.

After Eunice and Avia prayed for their mother's blessings, Eunice was still in high spirits and wanted to visit the entire construction site.

Plesinas muttered something about the request, and King Davers had only been there once when the work was underway, and had visited the site in the following months, so he was not sure if Eunice had made the request at Davers' behest.

What's more, as far as he knew, Eunice was deeply favored by Davers, so he dared to slack off and personally accompany the two princesses, take them on a tour, and explain the whole project to them in detail.

Plesinas served as a priest of Hades for more than 20 years, and not only was he eloquent, but he also had a great knowledge of Hades' theology (most of which was compiled by the Hades priests), so he told the boring process of building the temple in a lively and interesting way for the princess and the guards to listen to with relish.

In the mural painting area, Avia stopped for a long time, carefully watching the painters mix pigments with various mineral powders, and then sketch the Elysée and Hades on the wooden board. Even at the instigation of Eunice, Avia shyly picked up a paintbrush and tried to draw some patterns, which was praised by Plecinus and the painters.

The construction site was full of men's world, and two beautiful girls suddenly appeared, and their identities were so noble, of course, they stirred up waves among the craftsmen and laborers, but under the strict supervision of the foremen and the imposing pressure of the palace guards, they only dared to peek quietly, but they were more energetic in their work.

For Eunice and Avia, even though most of the sight was topless men, they didn't feel any discomfort, they had seen a lot of various competitive competitions in Turiyi since they were young, and they had long been accustomed to it.

The group was talking and laughing, and after turning most of the construction site, Eunice suddenly stopped, pointed in front of him and asked, "Who is that person?" ”

On the steep side of the cliff on the west side of the summit of Tenjin Mountain, there was a man standing motionless, like a statue.

Compared to the construction site where everyone was working hard, this man's behavior was so striking that Eunice even showed a look of dissatisfaction.

Plesinas hurriedly explained: "His name is Alixon, and he is a Tarantum man, not a craftsman or laborer involved in the construction of the temple. ”

"Tarantum?" Eunice was a little puzzled, but still questioned: "The temple is being built here, isn't it not that ordinary people are allowed to enter?" ”

"Your Royal Highness, Princess, he was a candidate for the design of the hilltop idol and passed the preliminary examination, but he asked that he had not been to the hill of the gods, and that he wanted to go to the mountain for inspiration in order to design the perfect summit statue...... At first we didn't agree, but he actually trespassed into the palace and wanted to petition His Majesty, and was arrested by the guards as a gangster, but when His Majesty heard about it, he actually agreed to his request, so we had to allow him to enter, he had been here for two days, but he didn't wander around, and spent most of his time quietly there. ”

The biggest difference in the reconstruction of the main temple of Hades this time is to erect a huge statue of Hades on the hill and in front of the temple, so that not only the people of the entire city can see its majestic figure, but also the entire plain of Xubari, as well as the people, tourists and pedestrians of the nearby mountains, ports and coasts, so as to show the supreme power of the patron saint of the kingdom of Dionia.

King Davers and the Senate demanded that the statue not only surpass the Colossus of Athena in front of the Parthenon in size, but also be otherworldly and outstanding in the artistic image design of the statue, so at the suggestion of Davers, the Temple of Hades and the Kingdom Carvers Union jointly held an unprecedented selection competition, and all the carvers and painters in the kingdom could design the colossus on the top of the hill in order to select the best and most perfect works.

However, the candidates first had to pass two rounds of preliminary evaluation, and the judges were all famous architects and painters of the Dionian Kingdom, so 90% of the candidates were eliminated, avoiding indiscriminate filling, and this person was able to pass the primary selection, obviously with good ability.

After listening to Plesine's introduction, Eunice became interested, walked straight over, and came to the man, only to find that he was a young man in his early 20s, only to see him straighten his arms, squint his eyes slightly, let the mountain breeze blow loose clothes, and look intoxicated.

"What are you doing here?" Eunice asked curiously.

The young man stood motionless as if he had not heard her.

Eunice was a little angry and said loudly, "Hey, I'm asking you!" ”

The young man named Alixon slowly turned his head and said dissatisfiedly: "I'm sorry, please don't disturb my thoughts. Also, please go away, you've blocked the sun from me. ”

Eunice has been pampered by her parents since she was a child, and no one has ever dared to speak to her in such a tone, so she immediately raised her eyebrows and shouted: "Hey, do you know who I am? ”

Alexon didn't speak, but waved his hand impatiently and motioned for her to leave.

Eunice was really angry: "I am the daughter of King Davers, I order you to get out of the Celestial Hill immediately, or I will let the guards expel you!" ”

This time, Alexon looked directly at Eunice who was standing in front of him, but there was no fear on his face, but he said with a straight color that was neither humble nor arrogant: "It is the will of King Davers that I can stand here, and I wonder if it is the order of His Majesty the King?" Or do your words work? ”

"You! ......" Eunice's anger was stifled by these words, and she really didn't know how to respond for a while.

"Sister, it's time for us to go home!" Avia's timely shout gave Eunice a step down, and she immediately responded, and then said hatefully: "Your name is Alexon, I remember you, let's see!" ”

Ignoring her threat, Alexon turned his head and continued to look down the hill in silence.

Eunice stomped her foot hard and turned away.

Seeing off Eunice and the group, one of his subordinates asked uneasily, "Priest of Plesinus, do you want that Tarantum to humiliate our princess so much?" ”

Plesinas shook his head and said, "It's just a farce between young people, don't worry about him." As a faithful believer in Hades, we should have a broad and benevolent mind, otherwise how can we convince the people. ”

"You're right, I'm wrong." The priest immediately confessed.

Plesinas rubbed his forehead and said, "I'll go and rest for a while, and when Lord Heraclid arrives (the Minister of the Kingdom), he will come and tell me at once, and I'll inspect the progress of the whole project with him." ”

"Yes."

Davos ended the day's affairs early, hurried out of the palace, hurried back to the mansion on the mountain, and then came to Christoya's bedchamber, and asked with concern, "How is it?" Are you feeling better today? ”

Crystoia, who was lying on the bed, had not yet spoken, and Agnes, who had not been to the temple of Hera in order to take care of her in the past few days, said on the side: "Just now Herps came again and treated my sister, saying that her physical condition is much better than before, and she should be cured in two or three days. ”

"That's great!" Davers sat on the edge of the bed, stroked Christoya's hand, and said seriously: "The weather is very good during this time, I suggest you, let the maids hold you, go to the garden for a walk, bask in the sun, it will get better sooner." ”

Christoya glanced at him, withdrew her hand sharply, then turned away, and lamented, "Leave me alone, I'm not going to be well, let Persephone take me to the Elysée!" ”

"Sister, don't talk nonsense—" Agnes hurriedly persuaded her, and Davers secretly waved his hand to signal her not to worry, and then said, "Cloto is busy with politics now, and you are not seriously ill, so I didn't call him back-"

"Well, I can't do it......" Kristonia immediately lamented again.

"He agreed to send Chris back, though." Davers's next words brought Christoya's lamentation to an abrupt end, and she turned around abruptly: "Really?!" ”

Davers smiled narrowly, "Are you sick now?" ”

Christoya slapped him and asked urgently, "Is it true?!" ”

"The king has no jokes." Davers smiled and said, "I guess our good grandson will be home the day after tomorrow." ”

"That's great!" Agnes had a rare look of excitement: "I wonder how tall Chris is now?!" The last time he left, he was not yet a year old and couldn't even walk, so he was taken to Rome......"
