Late that night, the king, who had been anxious, summoned the three of them as soon as Xiao Chen returned to the palace.
"Did the plan succeed?" the king asked anxiously, leaning forward in his chair.
"Yes, the statue here has gathered a lot of power of faith, and we have already confirmed in the temple that no new power of faith has flowed over there. Our plan has changed the way the entire dwarf kingdom worships the God of Forge, and it has been very successful."
"Good, good, very good! Mr. Xiao Chen, thanks to you guys, you finally helped me solve this big problem."
"It's not resolved yet. The false god itself has not been destroyed yet."
"If its power cannot be replenished, shouldn't it slowly die out?" asked the king.
Mei Tiantian said: "The power of faith is just the power it borrows to strengthen itself and apply. In addition, it should have other divine powers after reaching this level. So apart from the power of faith, it is still a false god, or a demigod, but not so powerful."
The king said, "Does that mean we can wait until it becomes weakest and then destroy it?"
Xiao Chen said: "Although the power of faith is a kind of power that will slowly dissipate, it will take a long time for it to completely dissipate. As time goes by, the power of faith in the hands of the false god will become less and less, and his strength will become weaker and weaker, but this process is too long, and we can't wait that long.
We discussed it and decided to make some preparations before destroying it."
The king seemed a little hesitant when he heard this: "But all previous attempts have failed. And I'm not sure if opening the teleportation array again will give him a chance to escape to this world."
Xiao Chen said: "I don't know what kind of deal the previous high priest of the temple had with it. How can you be sure that it doesn't have a way to reverse the teleportation array?"
"Is this possible?"
"Nothing is impossible in the world of magic. We can't always guard this country for you. Instead of being suddenly attacked by it after we leave, it's better for us to take the initiative and kill it, isn't it
What's more, the purpose of our coming here is to obtain the Tower of Forging. If we can't get it, the whole world may be in great danger. The God of Nature is much more terrifying than a false god."
"What kind of preparation do you need?"
Xiao Chen said: "I will form a team and enter the ruins of God from the path of the Great Forger Trial."
The king said, "But I don't have any extra Grand Forgers to provide for you at the moment. Last time, when I asked Bohawks and his men to enter the Ruins of God, I sent all three Grand Forgers of the Palace to follow them to ensure that they could pass the trial, but they didn't come back. Now I really can't provide a new Grand Forger. And the six major families are definitely unwilling to send their Grand Forgers to such an operation. For them, each Grand Forger is a huge fortune.
The same goes for the soldiers. My soldiers also suffered heavy losses in the last operation. I heard about your strength from the Fire Crystal Family. Soldiers who are not strong enough should not be able to help you."
Xiao Chen said: "It doesn't matter. We have our own great forger, and we also have enough mages and warriors. What I would like to ask you to provide is some material resources."
The king asked, "What kind of resources do you need? Weapons? Armor? Scrolls? Magic crystals? I will try my best to provide you with these things."
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "It's mainly magic crystals. It may cost a little, but in the end you will know that it's all worth it."

In the treasury of the Dwarf Kingdom, the king's servant opened the door of the magic crystal warehouse, which is the second largest warehouse in the treasury of the Dwarf Kingdom, second only to the forging material warehouse.
Xiao Chen and his companions stood at the door of the warehouse. In front of them was a long road that seemed to have no end. There were many shelves on both sides of the road, and each box on the shelves emitted a magical glow.
Here is the accumulation of magic crystals since the establishment of the Dwarf Kingdom. Due to the lack of magic masters, the Dwarves do not use magic crystals very often. They mostly use these magic crystals only when they use magic circles to smelt metals or when they want to inlay them on enchanted weapons and armor. However, the Dwarf Kingdom, which has a large area of mountains and underground territories, produces quite a lot of magic crystals. They have several large magic crystal veins and magic crystal pools, which can produce a large number of magic crystals every year. Although many magic crystals have been traded to other forces, a considerable part of them have been stored. This storage has lasted for thousands of years. Therefore, it can be said that there is no force on the continent that has more magic crystals than the Dwarf Kingdom.
The three humans from the Tower of China had never seen such a sight before and felt their hearts beating wildly. Even Evelyn, who accompanied them here, lamented that even the elves did not have such a stock, and the elves were big consumers of crystals.
The king said with some pride: "The magic crystals here have not decreased much even during the war. This warehouse is still a gathering point for magic power. The magic crystals here will not be damaged, but will continue to improve in quality. So there are many magic crystals passed down from ancient times. The older the time, the better the quality of the magic crystals."
Xiao Chen took out a black and white crystal from his storage ring and shook it in front of the king.
"This is the Spirit Tower. Our plan is to enter the God's Ruins and use its special abilities to fix the false God's soul. However, this action requires a large amount of magic crystals, and the Spirit Tower itself is running low on energy. So we have to rely on your Majesty's magic crystal inventory."
The king nodded and said, "Of course, of course. If these magic crystals can help you deal with that false god, then it will be worth it no matter how much it costs. Besides, how many magic crystals can this small crystal consume? I think you can even keep some as backup, so that if the energy of a single charge is exhausted, there will be a chance to replenish it."
Xiao Chen looked at Luo Ling in surprise and said, "If that's the case, that would be great. Then I'll start using this crystal to charge it?"
"certainly."
Xiao Chen opened his palm, and the black and white crystal flew into the air. It began to flash, and then countless magic crystals flew up from the surroundings and gathered towards it. The crystal absorbed the magic crystal energy very quickly. As the magic crystals flew towards it, their color gradually became lighter, and then turned into white powder and floated to the ground. In less than a minute, the magic crystals on the four or five shelves around it that were filled with magic crystals disappeared without a trace.
Half an hour later, the king and Xiao Chen walked out of the treasury. He looked back at Xiao Chen and sighed, "That's really a bottomless pit. Now I can only hope that it is really worth it as you said." (To be continued)
