"You mean, let me build a colossus out of the Forbidden Stone?"

Du Lang glanced at his wife and daughter, and the middle-aged man frowned, his face a little hesitant.

"What we mean by this is that you design a colossus in Miranda's style, and the requirements are that you must be able to pull the pedestal with an oxcart, and that the forbidden area must be at least three kilometers."

Lyist said solemnly, making the girl on the side hate the root of his teeth.

"This ...... If you design a statue according to Miss Miranda's appearance and figure, it is not impossible, but it will take more time. ”

"In terms of time, it can be done in three years."

"Three years...... I'm not sure if I have enough time because it's the first time I've taken on such a difficult job......"

"No, no, no! Forget it! ”

Miranda interrupted the conversation, shaking her hands frantically as if it were Thursday.

"Don't give me a statue, I, I'm not suitable, if you want to erect a statue, it's Grandpa Lijiawen's, right? What are the words that make me like? ”

Lyist tilted his head.

"Really?"

The girl nodded firmly.

"No, no, no, the thought of the Demacians looking up at my statue...... Too, too ashamed, right? ”

"Then forget it, you gave it up yourself."

Lyist looked at Duran again.

"You recreate a colossus, and the appearance and specifications are up to you."

Du Lang was visibly relieved, it was difficult to meet the requirements of the statue, and it was even more difficult to stipulate the form of the statue, but fortunately, the worst case did not happen to him.

"If I had designed it myself, it would have been on the simple and practical side, and it should have been completed in two years."

"That's even better, come to me after you finish the design drawings, and I will coordinate all forces to help you build the Forbidden Demon Stone Colossus."

Dulang stood up and shook Lyster's hand.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, I will definitely complete the design sketch as soon as possible."

……

A month later, Dulang approached Lyster with a thick stack of hemp paper.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Lyist motioned for his little attendant to entertain the somewhat nervous middle-aged stonemason, while he began to flip through the design sketches.

The first dozen or so are the decomposition drawings of the Colossus, marking the various parameters of the Colossus and the ratio of mixed materials, and the face is the same as that of the hero Galio, and the back dozens of hemp paper record the estimated construction period and the budget of manpower and materials for the construction of the stone statue, and the entire design sketch does not have a single superfluous nonsense and blank space, which is concise and complete, and can be said to be a treasure of engineering and stonemasonry.

Gently placing the thick blueprint on the table, Lyist had a little more respect for the man in front of him with thick bags under his eyes.

Durang is indeed a talent, and he is a little bit of a human trafficker.

"The design sketch is very feasible, but there are still some things that need to be revised, such as writing a few 'positive' characters on the inner thigh of the Colossus, and then carving the simplified faces of Miranda and me, remember to be more intimate, and Miranda has to put up two fingers......"

"The First Evolution"

Discussed with Du Lang about the small places that needed to be modified, although Du Lang didn't know what the word 'positive' and Miranda's happy face meant to Lyster, but the stonemason did not refuse this small request, so that the crown guard family and the big celebrities in the upper echelons of Demacia owed a favor, such a good deal fool would not do.

It is true that he is a master of stone carving, but it is not a big deal for a master of stone carving in Demacia, or the nobility is more popular and respected by the people.

After explaining the matter, Lyist pointed to the two huge wings of the colossus on the sketch with some curiosity, it stands to reason that Galio's wings are something that will only appear when Demacia pays tribute to the two guardian angels, and the angel in this life has been abducted to the Emerald Collar by himself early, he didn't expect that Galio designed by Durang still has two wings, and he is also very curious about Galio's big tail.

"Why would you want to give the Colossus wings and tail? The weight of the wings and tail would be a huge burden on the stability of the statue, right? It will also delay the construction time and make it more difficult. ”

"Yes, wings and tails can make construction harder, especially wings, which can make the Colossus unstable."

Taking a sip of tea, Du Lang said bluntly.

"But without its wings, this colossus is like a flightless bird, which would be too stupid, I don't like it, so, I think it should have wings, as for the tail of the colossus, it's because I want to balance the instability caused by the colossus's wings, and the dragon lizard of the dragon lizard knight has a tail, as agile as a dragon bird, as fast as a dragon lizard, that's my design philosophy."

"But it can't fly, it's not a bird, it's just a stone statue, why do you want it to fly?"

Lyist stared at Du Lang tightly, and Du Lang's tired face had a bit of longing and romance that belonged to the designer.

"It can't fly, but I heard you say that it will follow the soldiers on the battlefield, Your Excellency Lyst, I'm just an ordinary stonemason, I can't take up arms to defend my country like the men of Demacia, this is the regret of my life,

I am neither an invincible fearless vanguard, nor a dragon bird dragon lizard knight who dominates the sky and the ground, all I can do is build a guardian colossus for the country, in my opinion, Galio's two wings are the dreadnought vanguard and dragon bird knight of Demacia, the tail is the dragon lizard knight, and Galio himself is the will of all Demacians to protect the country, as long as Galio is still there, Demacia will not be harmed by the evil mage. ”

The middle-aged man swept away his previous exhaustion, and his eyes seemed to be burning with fire.

"Sweep away injustice and war with my wings, and defend the glory of the country with my chest, this is the meaning of Galio's birth, even if I leave this world, Galio will stand quietly on the land of Demacia, watching this quiet and beautiful land day and night, so that I can sleep proudly in the ground, and these wings are the wings I gave Galio, maybe, the future Galio can really fly?"

An unspeakable silence enveloped the three of them, and the little attendant hurriedly added tea to the two, but Du Lang scratched his head in embarrassment.

Ideals will always lose to reality.

"Uh, that, I'm just joking, I'm sorry Lord Lyist, I'll delete the wings......"

"No, give Galio wings."

Lyist picked up his teacup and looked out at the blue sky, gazing at the stars hidden under the canopy.

"I'm sure Galio will fly."

……

After the drawings were finalized, Demacia's most powerful dreadnought vanguard and dragon bird knights sealed off a piece of land on the southern outskirts of Demacia's Xiongdu, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

Simple wooden houses were erected, and groups of stonemasons from all over Demacia stepped out of the wagons, ready to complete Demacia's greatest work.

Under the coordination of Teresa, the forbidden wood powder in the forbidden stone forest was all produced for the construction of the colossus, and at the same time, more than 3,000 skilled stonemasons gathered in the open space in the southern suburbs to start the construction of the forbidden stone colossus under the command of Duran, and another 10,000 people were dedicated to transporting daily supplies and consumables for the stonemasons, completing some non-technical work, the project was unprecedentedly large.

Because Lyster needed to supervise the construction process throughout the process, the eldest lady of the Crownguard family ran to the southern suburbs every day, gathered next to the man and asked this and that, as if she had forgotten the court etiquette she had learned, and indulged in dusting all day long.
