The way she was dressed was quite an eyesore in the temple. She promised Lan Qi that she wouldn't say a word in the temple if she didn't talk nonsense.
It was also more comfortable for her to leave the temple for some air and wait for him outside.
The time in the temple passed like this minute by minute.
"I didn't expect that the Paulante Empire still has such a generation of craftsmen in this world."
The High Lord of Argom looked at the rock and the statue of the God of Sanctuary, spoke in a trembling voice, and glanced excitedly at Branch Chief Sebas beside him.
Only when he was a child had he seen such a heroic figure, and even under the hands of this craftsman, it became even more dazzling.
"Yes."
A trace of imperceptible horror flashed in Sebas's eyes. He didn't understand where Queen Kesia found such a craftsman, and why he didn't know about it.
But his worries and dissatisfaction were deeply hidden under the appearance of skillful acting, and his eyes lingered in the celebration of Ranchi and the surrounding orcs.
wrong……
Since this guy came here in secret, he might have faked his identity and was just performing a show with Queen Kesia.
His temperament and skills can also be seen, and it is unlikely that he has a low status.
For a moment, Sebastian was puzzled as to who the Rocky craftsman might be among the dignitaries of the Pollante Empire.
But his status shouldn't be too high, and it doesn't matter who he is.
Daring to run out like this was his biggest mistake.
In the orc city-state, there is a seventh-level great lord who protects him. When he leaves the city-state, the vampires will be the real masters of the night in the eternal night snowfield, and any lower-level creatures will be just their feast.
Sebas remained motionless, perfectly matching the smiles of the beasts around him.
When the other party leaves, he will quietly inform Count Gregory that everything will be left to the vampire master to resolve on his own, and he will also get great credit.
……
Until a little light gradually appeared outside the corridor of the temple.
At the same time, the priests in the temple also sounded the horns of celebration.
When Lan Qi successfully completed the repairs, the entire temple erupted with excited cheers from the bear orcs.
Every line and texture on the statue has been meticulously restored by Lanci.
The damaged parts were cleverly reshaped, and even the divine writings that had become blurred and untraceable many years ago were supplemented and re-engraved by Lan Qi.
The statue of the God of Rock and Earth is tall and majestic, with a solemn posture. The left hand is placed on the chest, as solid and unshakable as a rock. However, the face of the statue shows a kind expression, as if silently guarding the vows of the believers and the land.

[Rank: 1]
[Those who admire this statue will recover a small amount of mental and physical strength, and their faith in the God of Rock and Sanctuary will increase slightly, and they may gain a weak understanding of earth-attribute magic. 】
Chapter 551 Familiarity between Lan Qi and Sigre
In the temple, under the rock and the statue of the God of Sanctuary.
"You are a true craftsman, we don't know how to thank you!"
Lord Argom came excitedly and held Lan Qi's hands.
"How on earth were you able to complete the missing God-era text on it, and even give it a new magical effect?"
Algom was puzzled. Although he had invited scholars from many races before, no one told him that it was possible to repair these ancient writings.
"Some craftsmen are good at painting, some are good at carving, and some craftsmen like to study academics. If you know a little about ancient relics, you may still be able to make up for it."
Lanci explained modestly.
"Then what are you best at?"
The High Lord of Argom looked at the rock and the statue of Sanctuary again, and for a moment he couldn't tell what kind of craftsman Lanqi was.
"I know a little bit about everything."
Lan Qi replied with a smile.
"Haha, as expected of you."
Lord Argom said with sincerity.
The applause and cheers of the bear beasts filled the entire temple, and in this festive atmosphere, the Lord Algom continued to express their most sincere thanks to Lanqi.
He ordered a group of temple guards and priests to temporarily evacuate and entertain the crowd in the temple, and accompanied the imperial craftsman alone, chatting with him.
"Mr. Lodge, the skills and professionalism you showed today deeply moved us all. You not only restored our statues, but also repaired our trust in human craftsmen. I will definitely write a letter for you personally. Several other great lords, please ask them to provide you with the best care."
Lord Argom's voice was deep and powerful, and his eyes were full of respect.
"The work you have just done is not only an art, but also a sacred contribution. We are deeply grateful, Mr. Lodge. Please remember that whenever and wherever you need help, we will not hesitate to support."
he added, seeming to feel that such basic help was unrewarded.
Because craftsmen with such skills are willing to help them repair them for a negligible reward, it can only be said to be a pure favor.
"Don't be so heavy-handed, Mr. Algom. I just want to make friends with you. Don't put too much pressure on me. Even if there is no reward or no matter how dangerous it is, I will actually do my best to repair the statue for you during this trip to the Land of Eternal Night." , if there are any items related to the Rock and the God of Sanctuary that need to be repaired in the future, you can send someone to Helsalem to find me at any time, or contact Queen Kesia."
Lan Qifeng smiled calmly and waved his hands, looking into Argom's eyes.
"……Yeah."
Lord Argom and Lan Qi looked at each other for a long time and smiled in relief.
He had never seen such clear eyes.
He wanted to believe that there was no impurity in the craftsman's heart and that all this was a spontaneous act out of his sense of responsibility.
"Don't you find it troublesome? After all, in my opinion, you don't necessarily believe in gods."
Lord Argom walked beside Lan Qi and said to him.
He took Lan Qi away from the noise and walked to the inner side of the temple. He and Lan Qi were walking and chatting.
At this moment, he was full of interest in this great human craftsman.
He has seen many human beings. The spring of their souls is endless, vast and bright, and they can realize themselves without relying on any faith. This human being in front of him gave him a particularly strong feeling.
"no, I can not."
Lan Qi shook his head and waved his hands.
He thought for a moment, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"The thoughts that come to mind are like lovers standing in front of me. I admire your spirit very much. You believe in gods, protect the land, and regulate yourself. In this world, you can still have such good faith. It is really amazing. Praise from the bottom of my heart.”
Lanci replied.
Next, he humbly shared his thoughts and experience in maintaining idols, and chatted with Algom about his interpretation of the Rock and Shelter chapter in the Book of Genesis. His words revealed his love for craftsmanship and cultural diversity. Sexual respect, suggesting how Algom should ask his men to clean the idols regularly.
The High Lord of Argom listened with great interest, expressed his agreement from time to time, and became fascinated without knowing it.
The sky gradually turned white, and the temple in Little Rock looked purer in the morning light.
"Mr. Algom, I have to go to the next city-state. We should have many opportunities to meet in the future, if you are willing."
When the time came to say goodbye, Ranchi looked at the clock and apologized for Argom's warm reception.
"Of course, I look forward to our next meeting with you."
The Lord of Argom held Ranchi's hand tightly, reluctantly wished him all the best in his upcoming journey, and presented him with a commemorative badge representing friendship.
Soon, after saying goodbye, Lan Qi left the temple along a less conspicuous backup passage.
At the end of the passage he stopped and changed his attire.
Lan Qi took off his craftsman's uniform, put it in his suitcase, and returned to his Protos Empire-style formal attire.
When leaving the temple, Lan Qi looked up at the sky and found that the morning light had begun to rise on the horizon.
The air is filled with the smell of a new day, but also mixed with the unique coldness and freshness of Little Rock.
Lan Qi took a deep breath and felt the breath of this land.
"Hey, I remember Sigre left halfway before."
He looked around the temple entrance and saw no sign of Sigre.
Walking alone through the stone squares and neatly arranged stalls.
Lanqi looked around and finally found Siglee in a corner outside the temple.
She was sitting under a protruding stone pillar, surrounded by several young orc thugs.
They were playing cards together, and there were a few banknotes on the ground. The atmosphere seemed quite relaxed and happy.
With a look of concentration on her face, Sigre sat on the ground and placed bets with a group of gangsters.
And seeing the banknotes in her hand, it seemed that she had won a little money just now.
It is possible that the bet they just placed was that Lan Qi could successfully complete the repair work.
Lan Qi walked over slowly and stood beside Sigre.
He didn't urge her, he just frowned slightly.
Sigre glanced up at Lan Qi.
The silence made her a little uncomfortable.
It's like being picked up from school by your parents.
"It's okay, you can finish this game."
Lan Qi reminded.
The surrounding orc gangsters looked at Sigre in surprise. This dirty-looking girl actually had a well-dressed rich man pick her up.
