Chapter 102: Separation of Faith
"Let's get started. The king said to Xiao Chen.
"Okay. ”
Xiao Chen gave Luo Ling a signal, Luo Ling lightly stepped on the amplification array on the ground, and a little spiritual power poured into it, activating this formation, and then on the surrounding mountain walls, there were also a series of formations opened one after another, this is the super-large-scale sound transmission array that she led her spirit attendants to arrange yesterday, the purpose is to let the king's speech here basically spread throughout the entire canyon.
"My people, what you hear now is that your king is speaking here. The blessing of the God of Forging allows my voice to reach you. Let me give you an extremely important piece of news. "The king had never spoken in front of so many people, and this crowd of people still put a lot of pressure on him. His voice trembled at first, but after all, he was an old man who had seen the world, and he quickly stabilized.
When the king said this, the whole canyon fell silent. The silence lasted for more than ten seconds, and suddenly there was a buzzing sound all around, no one had ever seen a sound amplification circle of this scale, and no one could imagine that the sound of a person speaking could be heard throughout the canyon.
"Some of you may have noticed that something has happened in the Temple of Nature lately. Even nobles could no longer pray in the temple for the time being. That's because something big happened and the god of forging not only sent down an oracle, but blessed us.
Look, this cloth is covered with a gift from God!"
The king stretched out his hand and pointed at the tall cloth beside him, Xiao Chen snapped his fingers lightly beside him, and the cloth floated up and flew high, and the things that were covered by the cloth were suddenly revealed in front of everyone's eyes.
Exclamations echoed in the canyon.
It was a large statue carved out of white stone, with a thick arm that bent and stretched out into the sky, holding a forging hammer in its hand. The muscles of the arms on the statue bulged and seemed to be slamming the final blow with all their might.
This statue is naturally Xiao Chen's work, its skills are not very exquisite, but the carved things are very tense.
And anything that grows larger will become shocking, and the sculpture of the arm holding the hammer gives the dwarves a huge impact.
At this time, several spirit mages appeared in the sky, and they cast the lens magic invented by Luo Ling in several positions, which is actually a kind of magically generated telescope, so that the dwarves who could not reach the square and could only watch from a few high positions could see the magnified sculpture of the lens.
The dwarves, who had never seen a sculpture in this form, did not know how to express their excitement and ecstasy, and some prayed to the statue on the spot, and many more knelt on the ground and chanted the name of the god of forgery.
At this moment, with the statue as the center, a huge wave of magic power spread, and the golden light erupted around the statue, and then a wave full of gentle aura swept over every dwarf in the square.
All the dwarves who were swept by the ripples felt a power permeate their bodies, an energy that relieved the fatigue in their bodies and made them feel calm and warm. The mind also seems to be filled with good things and becomes very happy.
The golden ripples swept across the square and spread out like the top of the canyon, and groups of people watching from the edge of the cliff were swept away by it and felt the power contained in it.
"I felt the blessings bestowed upon me by the God of Forging. A nobleman shouted.
"O God of Forging, my wound doesn't hurt anymore!" a soldier who had been wounded during training burst into tears.
"Praise the God of Forging, I've already got what to do next!" a distressed craftsman jumped excitedly.
Even some of the people of the Six Great Families were touched by this feeling and began to kneel and pray.
Umedada, who was beside the statue, put away his hand and quietly hid behind Xiao Chen.
She came out the day before yesterday, and just like planned, she has become a sage. The path of her perception this time is slightly different from before, and the rich magical resources have allowed her to gain more comprehensive strength, and her potential will be higher than that of her in the other world in the future.
As soon as Xiao Chen saw her come out of the customs and become holy, he gave her the task of making miracles. The magic was formed by combining several healing, blessing, and buff spells with the means she had newly realized after becoming a Sage, expanding their range to the limit and then releasing them.
This magic covered almost half of the royal capital, and Umeda was extremely difficult to wield, but it was perfect for using it as a miracle to fool the dwarves.
Seeing the dwarves around him moved, the king knew that Xiao Chen's plan was half successful, and he then said in a sad tone, "But it is never easy to receive the blessing of the God of Forging. This stems from the fact that I told the High Priest half a year ago that I wish that there would be many people who could not go to the temple and that there would be a place to pray to God every day. The High Priest led the priests of the temple to pray to the God of Forging for a hundred days in response to my request, and finally the God of Forging gave such an artifact. But the high priest of the temple and many of the high-ranking priests were exhausted by this prayer, even paying the price with their own lives. Their souls have gone to the kingdom of the gods of forging, but their efforts have survived in our dwarven kingdom.
Before the High Priest left, he gave the inheritance of the temple to the High Priest Borat, and now Priest Borat will become the new High Priest. ”
Although the previous high priest had little to do with most of the dwarves, the forging of the temple was the ultimate thing in their lives, and the priests of the temple symbolized the death of the high priest, and many dwarves still cried involuntarily.
At this time, the current high priest Borat walked up to the high platform, he was wearing the costume of the high priest of the temple, and he looked a little more noble and mysterious than a few days ago. He saluted the huge statue and then said to the people, "The High Priest has commanded me to give every dwarf the opportunity to pray every day. For the wish of the High Priest, and to thank His Majesty the King for such a suggestion on behalf of all, I now declare that all the ceremonies of the Forge Temple will henceforth take place in the square in front of this palace. And for the next month from today, I and the other priests of the temple will be conducting ceremonies here every day.
Now let's pray the first prayer together for the gift of the gods!"
The High Priest stepped down from the platform and walked in front of the statue with more than a dozen other priests, and the valley fell silent again, and then began to hear the hammer carols sung by the priests.
The song was melodious and desolate, echoing through the valley, and at the end of the song, the surrounding dwarves sang along with them.
Xiao Chen looked at the statue and found that there was a faint golden light on it.
He asked Umedada, "Did you do it?"
"No, that's the true power of faith. ”
