Chapter 717 Road Statue

"Let me leave my gift to this city. I will always stand with you." Gavin, suspended in the air, raised the dragon oak staff high. A bright light fell from the sky and landed on the square of the East City of the City of Faith, where there was a huge black stone base.

"Look, there's something in the sky."

"Gods, what is that?"

"A tree, that's the shadow of a tree, is there such a big tree in the world?"

"It's the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, the Dragon Oak Mother Tree that killed the Root of God in Dalaoma!"

"Is she the Dragon Oak Mother Tree? She's more magnificent and huge than the legend."

"Look, look, something is coming out, it's a statue, it's a statue, a statue belonging to the Lord."

"No wonder the Lord asked people to build the stone base of the statue in the square, but didn't build the statue, here's the reason."

"What a superb carving technique, this is a giant replica of the Lord."

"Normal, all the elves are carving masters, it's not easy to create a statue."

Amid the incredible exclamations of the crowd, the shadow of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree appeared in the sky, and under the pressure of her right claw, a lifelike statue of Gavin broke through the plane barrier and slowly landed on the stone statue base in the square.

This statue is enlarged ten times in the same proportion, with a height of 18.5 meters. It is wearing combat armor, leaning on the dragon oak staff with both hands, and looking into the distance with a solemn expression. It is made of a branch of the dragon oak mother tree.

This is naturally prepared for the statue infusion ability of the road of destiny. Gavin originally prepared a stone statue, but the dragon oak mother tree has finished upgrading, so of course he has to choose to take materials from her.

The reason is simple. The relationship between the two parties is so close that the wooden statue carved out of the dragon oak mother tree branches is of course more compatible and easier to produce unique changes.

And a statue of this size is a drop in the bucket for the dragon oak mother tree, not even a leaf of hers. The power consumed to send it over is tens of thousands of times that of condensing and shaping it.

That's right, this statue was not made, but grew directly on the dragon oak mother tree, and it was not just one statue, but a large piece, with various models.

In fact, there are many ways to send this statue over, and there is no need to consume the power of the dragon oak mother tree so much.

The reason for choosing to do this is purely to attract attention, shock people, and show its uniqueness. I believe that this one point alone will be enough to be sung for a long time and accumulate the first original power for this statue.

This is just the beginning. When the statue landed smoothly on the stone base, Gavin waved his staff and led a life force over.

Countless tree roots spread from the bottom of the statue and penetrated deeply into the reserved holes of the stone base, making the two sides fit together tightly, like a big tree with roots, which is difficult to shake.

Then came the main course. 640 points of road power rushed along the Conqueror's Road and injected into the wooden statue.

The khaki color began to spread from bottom to top, and it actually dyed the wooden statue into stone, emitting the unique light of stone.

"What's going on? Why do I feel like this statue is alive? It's looking at me with its eyes."

"So you have this feeling too. I thought it was just my illusion."

"Magical power. This statue is infused with magical power."

"No, this is definitely not just magical power. Magical power is not so magical. It's more like divine power. Don't you think this statue is very similar to the statues in the temple now?"

"More than similar, it is. Could it be that Ms. Strategy has infused her own divine power into it?"

"When have you ever seen those gods infuse divine power into statues that don't belong to them? This is the statue of Lord Gavin. Even if he is the chosen one of Ms. Strategy, he is not the lady herself. It's irrelevant to do this..."

"You mean, this is the power of Lord Gavin himself. How is that possible? He is just a mortal!"

"Shh, I didn't say anything. Don't talk nonsense about me. What you guess is what you guess."

"Lord Gavin may not have this kind of power, but the giant tree behind him does. Maybe this is the power of the giant tree."

"Yes, it must be like this. This statue is obviously carved from the trunk of the giant tree. Isn't it normal to have magical power? He is the best match for our Lord."

"It's useless to make some blind guesses. The stronger the Lord's power is, the better it is for us. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pay the most sincere respect to him. Without him, how can we have our current life and our current achievements."

"Lord Gavin!"

"Lord Gavin!!"

"Lord Gavin!!!"

There are a large number of priests in the Conqueror Army. They are all knowledgeable people and can detect the difference at a glance.

This is not a statue that symbolizes the great achievements of mortals. It is clearly a statue that was infused with divine power by the gods and then consecrated. However, the owner of this statue, Gavin, is obviously a mortal. It is incredible that a mortal holds divine power.

Under the guidance of those who are interested, they directly attributed this glory to the material and the dragon oak mother tree. It is normal for such a unique giant tree to have its own divine power.

There are some things that you can do secretly, but you must never declare them in public.

This is the case when stealing divine power.

This is one of the reasons why Gavin attached the Dragon Oak Mother Tree to the forest queen Mielikki. Only in this way can he have a legitimate reason.

In this way, it is not that mortals steal the power of the gods, but that they declare war on hostile gods as a weapon of a god. This is a conflict between gods.

And he can take advantage of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree and push some more sensitive things onto the Dragon Oak Mother Tree. The two are originally one and the same, so it is not a thunderbolt.

When the power of the road is infused, this statue is no longer a statue, but a statue with a mysterious connection with Gavin.

Road Statue

Size: Giant

Infusion of divine power: 640 points.

Listening probability: 40%

Range: 64 kilometers in radius (limited to roads).

Description: This statue is infused with your road power. When those who walk on this road pray to you devoutly or ask for help, you will have a chance to listen to their prayers and respond. The listening probability is related to the amount of road power infused by the statue.

Dream warning (special ability) - When those travelers walk in the range covered by the statue and encounter danger in their dreams, the statue will automatically warn them.

Prayer response (special ability) - When those travelers spend a certain amount of time praying to the statue for protection before embarking on their journey, the statue will automatically respond according to their piety. When they are in the range covered by the statue, their movement speed will be increased to varying degrees, ranging from 10% to 30%, depending on the other party's piety.

Road rescue (special ability) - When a merchant traveler walking on the road covered by the statue encounters danger, he can pray to you for help. You or your designated statue guardian will have a 40% chance of hearing it. You can send them a normal rescue team or a road guard team that is in tune with the statue.

The road guard team can use the power of the road to teleport directly to a place within 500 meters of the person seeking help. Each time a medium-sized creature is teleported, one point of the statue's power will be consumed, two points for a large creature, four points for an extra-large creature, and so on. The consumed power will be restored the next day. Once the statue's power is consumed, it cannot be used again on the same day.

Statue linkage (special ability) - When the coverage area of ​​two statues can be handed over, the prayer response will automatically connect to the next statue. It can only be linked once. After arriving at the destination, a new prayer must be made.

Even though Gavin had recently acquired a lot of good things, he was still deeply shocked by the attributes of the road statue. This was the foundation for becoming a god. With this thing, he would be on the road of the road god, just like flying on an airplane, running non-stop.

Anyone who passed by his statue, whether or not he was a believer, had to bow to him, offer his respect and prayers, and thus obtain corresponding blessings and protection. Especially those caravans carrying heavy or valuable goods would certainly hold a grand prayer ceremony to try to get the maximum blessing.

10% and 30%, the difference is still quite large.

If the response to prayer is considered the most normal use of the road god's duties, then road rescue belongs to the category of road protection.

That kind of road rescue teleportation is already a teleportation attack.

When a group of bandits were robbing on the road, they suddenly found that the magic light was flashing not far away, and a team of super knights armed to the teeth charged with guns, whoever changed would be terrified.

In a few months, no one will dare to rob on this road, including those monsters. The stupid ones will be destroyed, and the smart ones will flee.

If the entire road can be covered with their own statues, then when travelers and merchants walk on this road, they don’t even need to bring too many guards, just make sure they have time to pray.

And this matter can be integrated with the chain of hotels opened by Gowther’s mother.

Each statue has an attached temple, hotel, and barracks, which is convenient for responding to the information fed back by the statue.

It is not necessary to use teleportation to dispatch troops. It can be done according to their needs. For example, if some merchants’ vehicles are broken or their livestock are sick, they can ask for help and make different responses according to the situation. Only those most urgent things need to be teleported.

Even the response does not necessarily have to be sent from the statue hotel. It can be sent from the hotel along the way and the closest to them. Don’t forget that Gavin still has a shadow messenger. If one is stationed in each hotel, information can flow smoothly.

As for the dream warning, it was the linkage between the power of the road and the dragon oak mother tree, which was a pure surprise.

There was no need to test the super large, large and medium ones, Gavin had already guessed their properties. The road power they needed was 160, 40 and 10 respectively, the coverage diameter was 16, 4 and 1 km, and the listening probability was 30%, 20% and 10%.

In this way, the medium one was basically useless and did not even qualify as a supplement. At least it had to be a large one. It and the super large one would be an important part of those relatively remote roads.

The giant and super giant ones were used on long-distance commercial main roads such as the Conqueror's Road.

In the short term, the giant statue will be the main force. The 2560 points of road power required by the super giant statue are too terrifying, far exceeding Gavin's load. This can be slowly replaced after his road power comes up.

"What's going on? Why do I feel that I have established some kind of magical connection with this statue?"

"I feel it too, as if my speed has increased."

"Ha... Really, I feel like I can fly while running."

"This statue has a unique magical effect."

"It's amazing, it's really amazing."

The conquerors who shouted devoutly because they witnessed the completion of the statue immediately received a response from the statue. A gentle magical force entangled around them, giving them the illusion of being as light as a swallow.

The conquerors themselves have absolute recognition of Gavin and are his fanatical followers. According to the standards of the gods, a small number of people have reached the standard of devout believers, and most people have entered the category of believers.

Their recognition and feelings were just a passionate feeling when Gavin was just a mortal.

But when Gavin explores the realm of the gods, it will immediately transform into the most real faith.

The road statue in front of him is an absolute collector of faith. Their most passionate emotions are entangled with the invisible magic and laws, mixed into a more unique energy, absorbed by the road statue, and then transferred to Gavin. This is the most primitive power of faith.

The prayer response on the road statue actually uses the faith power of the person involved.

The most essential thing of this power was absorbed, led to Gavin by the road statue, and transformed into strands of road power.

The magic power that was triggered in this process was fed back to the person involved in the form of spell BUFF by the road statue, increasing their and the truck's moving speed.

Many people are professionals and sensed the changes at the first time.

After their reminder, those who had not noticed it before also realized the difference in their bodies. In addition to being shocked, their eyes looking at the road statue became more fiery.

The road statue at this time has become more different. Not only is there a dazzling sacred light that makes people unable to look directly at it, but the feeling of being alive is even stronger, as if he can be alive and become a real person in the next moment.

At this moment, even a fool knows that this statue is not a statue in the ordinary sense, but a magic statue. He will bring corresponding magic blessings to those who respect him.

Not to mention those ordinary people, even those priests, most of them will not easily think of this statue as a statue, let alone the road priesthood. After all, for them, this matter is too far away.

On the contrary, those powerful magic weapons are more common in daily life.

The power of the road statue is directly fed back to Gavin.

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the road power on the road of destiny is rising wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the blink of an eye, it broke through thousands.

When the road power officially reached one thousand.

A flower, a flower belonging to light, bloomed in Gavin's sea of ​​consciousness, as if it had bloomed from the road of destiny.

When you really observe it carefully, you will find that it is just a bright light spot, and there is no way to describe its size or shape.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the divine spark is called a flower.

This is the divine spark of the road.

There is no priesthood in the Pan-Faerun pantheon, and it was born by Gavin.

Therefore, it did not try to escape like the dream divine spark born from the dragon oak dream, and escape into the void to find a suitable host.

For the divine spark of the road, Gavin's sea of ​​consciousness and the road of destiny are his home, and Gavin is the most suitable host for it. Why should it go anywhere else?

Gavin has a feeling that he only needs a thought, and this light spot, this divine spark, will merge with himself, change his essence, and let himself step into the realm of the gods and become a demigod, just like the original lady of strategy.

By then, his strength will not be as simple as a third leap, but a fundamental qualitative change, unlocking some abilities that belong exclusively to demigods, even if it is only a small part, but it will also allow him to leave the ranks of mortals.

This impulse and desire were forcibly suppressed by Gavin with his strong will.

He told himself again and again in his heart that it was not the right time, far from the right time.

His foundation was too shallow, even in the mortal world, compared with those powerful forces and countries, his strength and power were too shallow.

Not to mention compared with those gods.

Once this divine spark is used, it will certainly allow oneself to gain more powerful power and enter the ranks of demigods, but it will attract countless gods to spy on oneself.

Not only those evil gods, but even some righteous gods will be in this ranks.

Never think too highly of the gods. They didn't fight mortals before because mortals rarely had things they wanted. When they really showed up, did they still look so righteous?

And the priesthood, especially the newly expanded priesthood, is one of them.

Although possessing the divine spark of the road would also attract prying eyes, he was still a mortal, and the gods were subject to many restrictions of laws.

Either they sent their believers to snatch it, even if it meant breaking up with each other and personally attacking a mortal, or at most they could send a divine incarnation like Mala.

The deity could neither enter nor do this, this was the shackles that the gods carried.
