The Arrival Through Time: The Wasteland Eight Years Later!

As for the future wasteland, judging from the progress made by the "players" here in their previous developments.

Su Mo had discussed and envisioned it at the dinner table with Su Deben, Chen Shen, Lü Kuan, and the others.

Setting aside the Wasteland's rate of development, just looking at the progress of human civilization's revival in the deep sea.

They had once imagined that, ten years into the future, the alien races that had lost the gods' assistance would have basically lost their early physical and numerical advantages.

With those resources, reviving the civilization of Earth at its peak would no longer be difficult.

It would probably take only two or three years of preparation before, across the entire continent, the human settlements.

The weaker ones would at least reach the level of the First Industrial Revolution, possessing mechanical manufacturing capabilities that would erase humanity's disadvantage in productivity.

The stronger ones should reach the level of the early twentieth century, capable of producing "ultimate weapons" sufficient to protect the human race.

And once the ultimate weapons were produced, that would be humanity's first step toward sounding the counterattack.

According to Su Deben, even enslaving the alien races on the New Continent would not be impossible.

That was infrastructure!

"Restoring the kind of infrastructure we had on Earth will be too difficult. Let's not even talk about whether our basic resources and manpower will be enough, or whether the alien races will destroy these things. The impact every disaster has on infrastructure alone means we have
