"Things are getting difficult..." Sui Xiong lay on the conference table, looking at the translucent main plane model floating in the air in front of him, with a frown on his face.

This model is a prop made with divine power and can truly reflect the general situation of the main plane. Sui Xiong used it to monitor drought conditions, and the effect was very reliable.

On the translucent model, you can see that most areas on the main plane have a dark or light yellowish color, the most serious of which is around the capital of the Gold Coin Federation - the goddess of wealth has always been lackluster, and this time is no different. As the saying goes, quick hands are better than slow hands. He didn't dare to be too unscrupulous when it rained, and as a result, he couldn't catch much rainwater.

In comparison, the situation on the prairie is much better. The orc gods were very straightforward, almost pouring water directly onto the ground. Until the Lord of Order stopped them, they poured at least two years' worth of rain into the prairie, and even caused floods on the ground. The floods haven't receded yet, so there's no drought.

To be honest, Sui Xiong really admired the orc gods for actually doing this... What were they thinking about fighting drought and turning it into floods

"What else can you think? It must have been long ago that the Lord of Order will ban it, so hurry up and get more water." Morani said with a smile.

Among the orc gods, He is the most familiar as an old friend. After all, he himself was considered one of the orc gods back then, and he knew everyone very well and was familiar with each other's work styles.

The other group of people with crazy rainfall is the human pantheon. Their approach is different from that of the orc gods. They first create hundreds of lakes on the ground, then directly fill these lakes, and then start to rain. It rains heavily.

This approach may seem less efficient than the orc gods at first glance, but it avoids possible flood disasters and is more suitable than humans whose main occupation is farming.

It's just that the human gods do not protect all human countries. Their rainfall is mainly concentrated in three places - the Kingdom of Radiance, the Blue Moon Federation, and the Kingdom of Thousand Springs.

These three countries are geographically adjacent, and more importantly, they clearly use the belief in human gods as their state religion.

In contrast, the Principality of Thunder, the Mystic Tower Federation, the three southern countries of the Dhaka Merchant Alliance, and the Gold Coin Federation in the West do not use the faith of human gods as their state religion.

"Those guys... are really stingy!" After hearing Weiye's introduction, Sui Xiong couldn't help but complain, "We are all human beings after all, why can't we help with rainfall?"

"With limited abilities, there is nothing we can do about it." Weiye didn't care about this. "Not to mention there are so many kind gods, but those places also get rain."

Sui Xiong sighed and looked at it. Although it was still roughly green, a layer of withered yellow main plane projection had emerged.

After a while, he asked: "How long do you think the rainfall effect this time... can last?"

"A few months."

"If you save the rainwater well, it may last for a year."

"It's too many years. It's absolutely impossible. The water will run away."

The gods started discussing in various ways.

Sui Xiong stared at the translucent shadow without comment.

He had some ominous premonitions.

In autumn, this ominous premonition gradually became a reality.

Because there was no rainfall throughout the summer, the drought gradually became serious again.

The most severe drought this time is in the Gold Coin Federation, and even the land has begun to dry out in many places. As for crops and so on... If there is rain now, there may be some harvest, otherwise, there will probably be no harvest.

The goddess of wealth is very anxious, and she is like an ant on a hot pot every day. He has sent out all his priests and divine envoys, and the divine power is being used like running water, but the disaster relief work for the entire Gold Coin Federation is still far from enough.

Naturally, the method of disaster relief is still the same, fetching water from the water elemental plane. However, due to the suppression of the main plane, even the legendary level gods can only exert limited power. Even if the goddess of wealth supplies divine power at any cost, one god can only get enough power in one day. Water source for thousands of acres of fields.

In terms of numbers, tens of thousands of acres of farmland does not seem to be a lot. However, in fact, the Gold Coin Federation is a large country with a distance of more than 5,000 kilometers from north to south, nearly 4,000 kilometers from east to west, and a total area of more than 15 million square kilometers.

This country is not developed enough. The cultivated land area accounts for about 15% of the land area. In other words, there are 2.2 million square kilometers of cultivated land. When converted into acres, it is... about 550 million square kilometers. Thousands of acres.

Well, the conversion of "acres" to kilometers in this world seems to be different from Sui Xiong's impression. I wonder if it was because he was not very good at geography back then? Or is there really a problem with weights and measures

So here comes the question. One divine messenger can supply water to tens of thousands of acres of fields in one day. Assuming a five-day watering cycle, how many divine messengers are needed to ensure water supply for 550 million acres of fields

After a little calculation, you will know that it is not much, just eleven thousand divine envoys.

If it were to maintain the activities of eleven thousand divine envoys outside the main plane, it would actually be nothing. But in the main plane, to maintain the activities of such a number of divine envoys, the consumption required is an astronomical figure.

In fact, if it weren't for the help of Sui Xiong and the others, the goddess of wealth would have been drained by herself.

But even with the help of Sui Xiong and others, things will be difficult to handle.

Although the goddess of wealth is not good at fighting, she is a powerful god after all. He can probably maintain one thousand to fifteen hundred divine envoys operating in the human world, which is almost the entry level of powerful divine power.

And among his allies, no one can do this.

Both Yorgardman and Sui Xiong were stronger than the Goddess of Wealth, but it was useless no matter how strong they were, because they simply did not have that many divine envoys at their disposal.

If you want to move around in the human world and divert water for irrigation, mass-produced angels are not enough. Elite angels must be smart enough to complete such work. The total number of elite divine envoys under Joel Gardman and Sui Xiong, let alone a thousand, can't even come up with five hundred...

Specifically, Sui Xiong has nearly 300 elite divine envoys, while Jorgadman has less than 100.

In contrast, the number of elite envoys of the God of Law, Rau Blanc, is slightly larger, with a total of two thousand people.

All in all, in the end, everyone dispatched all the divine envoys that could be dispatched. After counting, there were still about three thousand vacancies left.

What's worse is that even if the vacancies of these three thousand divine envoys are filled, it can only barely maintain the water supply to the farmland, and the drought situation of the entire Gold Coin Federation will not be alleviated.

Don’t forget, only about 15% of the land in the Gold Coin Federation is cultivated land...
