I don't understand something like how can Us become more powerful than China or India as most of these kind of plot involve firearms becoming useless so by common sense country with more people should have more awakened, thus becoming more powerful. Also there is land issue US have a lot of uninhabited land so there should be a lot more mutated beasts, so how can they solve the beasts outbreak.

@DarkShadow PL understand that logic doesn't work in most books no matter how much it should in some
@DarkShadow because of killing mentality of us
@DarkShadow First, quantity does not mean quality. Having a larger population only means a higher chance of producing powerful Awakened, but probability is not something you can rely on. If you've ever played a game with RNG, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
Second, a larger population does not necessarily mean more resources. Some countries may be small in size yet possess vast amounts of valuable natural resources.
Lastly, and closely related to the previous point, knowing how to use and manage those resources is a decisive factor. A resource-rich nation that fails to develop or exploit its assets effectively can still fall behind a country with fewer resources but better management and strategy.
@inhuman I'm talking about when the spiritual power descends and the strength of the beasts starts to increase, as you have said resource management I think it's valid but after a period of time but in the immediate danger of beast tide one cannot take action without awakened beings and after sometime those resource rich land will become infested with beasts cause US doesn't have the manpower to handle all of its land.
But if you were talking about US will have better quality of awakened despite being less in population just because they are American is beyond me.
@DarkShadow The moment you implied that I think Americans or the US are better simply because they are American, the argument and the debate were already over. I never said or implied anything like that—I was only talking about country size, probability, and management.
Also, I don’t think the author implied that either. If you’re mixing attitude, status, and overall country ranking, that’s your interpretation, not mine.
Have a nice day, sir.
@inhuman First of all I wasn't talking this specific manhua, I was talking about manhwa/manhua with same plot.
Secondly, what kind of probability or resources management are you talking about. In earlier comment you stated that strategy and management can overturn the battle and I agree with that but with insufficient manpower and necessary tools (as it is early days of spiritual awakening thus one cannot develop spiritual tools in short period of time or even if they develop it they can't mass produce it) one can not win the war. In my opinion, as I specifically mentioned US so I thought you were defending US.
