#830 - Chapter 830 The Seriousness of the Problem
“Guild Master.”
“Our food, the food and seeds within our plane, have all been contaminated by Wu Wei's plague.”
“This plague-contaminated food is no longer edible.”
Initially, when He Yun received the news that his guild's agricultural plane had been contaminated, he didn't take it to heart.
To be precise, it wasn't just him who didn't take it to heart.
Even the ordinary guild members didn't take it seriously.
After all...
Food.
Why would they care about something so cheap?
You should know that these lords, except for He Yun, are not top-tier lords individually.
However, the power they collectively possess is enough to establish an incredibly strong guild.
Therefore, they have abundant resources, especially resource points.
In their eyes, with the Heavenly Dao System, food is just an ordinary resource.
A few hundred million resource points are enough to supply an entire super-large plane, or hundreds of millions of civilians, for several days.
“Tch.”
“Wu Wei, that madman, would actually do something like this.”
“Is he brainless?”
Watching Wu Wei's plague gradually infect his plane, a lord responsible for agriculture and food supply revealed a disdainful expression.
“Food is something that can be easily grown, okay?”
“Even if he goes to the trouble of doing this, he can't starve us to death.”
This lord casually exchanged some resource points and successfully obtained a large amount of food resources.
Then, this lord successfully demonstrated his benevolence by distributing these hundreds of millions of food units.
Therefore, although many people knew that the food had been contaminated, including the farmers, they didn't care about this disaster.
However, things soon took a turn.
That is, when these lords prepared to remove the old crops and plant new ones, they were shocked to discover that Wu Wei's plague actually possessed divine characteristics.
This plague with divine characteristics cannot be easily removed.
Whether it's priests, mages, or alchemists.
No one can remove these plagues.
And more importantly, this plague can even directly affect the land on which these crops depend!
All the contaminated land cannot continue to grow new crops as before.
This time, these lords finally felt that something was wrong.
Because they knew that food needs to be supplied long-term.
After all, these lords are no longer the lords from the Lord's Trial stage.
During the Lord's Trial period, everyone's population was not large, and most of the time, their income could be directly converted into food.
So at that time, everyone didn't pay much attention to land cultivation.
However, it is worth mentioning that.
When a lord really starts to have a large area of territory, and the territory begins to have enough full-time warriors, then food is very important.
Because at this time, food basically needs a large amount of land and a large number of farmer units to supply it.
At this time, it is more difficult for the lords to directly purchase food in the previous way.
Because exchanging resource points for food is a very unprofitable thing in the medium to long term.
Food, as a pure existence, quickly changed from a simple necessity to a consumable that every commoner needs to eat for a long time.
Having a piece of land and using this land to produce food for a long time is actually the right solution.
After all, unless it is a race like demons that die easily, any race's civilians need food.
Moreover, the more civilians there are, the more food they need.
Therefore, under such circumstances, the Fallen Radiance Dynasty Guild quickly realized the seriousness of the problem!
Because....
“What is our current food shortage, roughly?”
“Assuming we guarantee the army's combat power and that civilians don't die, what is our food shortage?”
He Yun, the guild leader of the Fallen Radiance Dynasty, asked.
And his subordinates answered this question with pale faces.
“Five hundred million resource points.”
“A week?”
“No.”
A terrifying answer entered He Yun's ears.
“A day!”
Famine, to some extent, is more terrible than war!
Because hungry people can no longer be called "people".
