Riding and slashing the stars of empire civilization

Milin didn't really care that Attila, who should continue to train his Force perception, was pulled into the conference room by Alori.

Anyway, in Force training, the ratio of enlightenment and penance is 50-50, and sometimes the former is more important.

In the middle of the castle hall, which was supposed to be the living room, there was a round table usually used for eating.

Drawn one by one by Gray Feng himself, the military contour map recording Escalon City and the surrounding areas was laid out on this round table, which made the entire living room look very strange.

Those metal ingots, which had changed their properties several times in a few days, were placed on the corners of the map as paperweights.

After taking a look at the territory circled in red pen on the map, which was similar to an irregular triangle, Milin thought for a while and said:

"Since there is a town hall now, let's find time to make a three-dimensional sand table."

Although Milin can understand military contour maps, this kind of map is not very intuitive after all.

Hearing Milin's idea, Alori, who was about to volunteer to make the sand table, saw Hui Feng's whole body collapse after he had just laid out the map.

To be precise, Gray Feng's entire body collapsed into a flowing silver-gray liquid and fell onto the table.

The silver-gray liquid that fell on the table first completely covered the entire tabletop.

Then various ultra-miniature versions of natural and unnatural landscapes such as hills, forests, plains, towns, villages, roads, rivers, and fields quickly emerged.

It forms an extremely exquisite sand table landscape.

And compared with ordinary sand table landscapes, which are mostly static, the sand table landscape constructed by Gray Feng with his own body completely imitates reality.

The rivers are flowing, farmers are farming in the fields, smoke is rising in the villages, and people are coming and going in the towns. The city gate guards, who almost need a microscope to see clearly, are checking the caravans lined up at the city gate one by one.

If you move the microscope to the wild, you can still see animals running in the forest, demonstrating the laws of survival of nature.

Behind the sand table, which looked more like some kind of fantasy miniature artwork than a sand table landscape, a small gray wind, only about ten centimeters high, appeared inside the sand table.

Matched with villages and towns that are no bigger than a matchbox, the ten centimeter gray wind can be called a giant.

"Wow," Alori exclaimed, seeing this scene for the first time.

On the contrary, Attila's expression beside her remained unchanged.

It's not that Attila didn't feel any fluctuations in her heart after seeing this scene, but she had done enough psychological construction. Even if Milin and his party did something surprising, she could accept it.

"Can you actually do this?"

Milin, who was as surprised as Alori, said to Little Gray Wind in the sandbox.

"If computing power and quality were not limited, I could even replicate the environment of the entire planet one to one." Xiao Hui Feng, who is ten centimeters tall, said.

"I know this well." Gray Goo Storm can be said to be the famous imitation master among all natural disasters.

It's a pity that the current gray wind is limited to the highest quality because of Yonelin's unreliable golden finger. Otherwise, after creating such a miniature landscape, it would not have become a ten centimeter-tall pocket gray wind.

Fortunately, we now know how to gradually unlock Gray Wind's abilities, but we don't know how to remove Alori's restrictions.

"Boss, look at what I'm doing. I can't do it. Even if I have graduated from Winterhold, I can't do it." Alori waved his hand when he saw Milin turning his attention to himself.

Making a sand table or something like that, Alori said he could do it.

But shaping the sandbox into something like Gray Wind... Alori couldn't help but wonder, is this still a sandbox?

"Nothing." Milin looked away, looked at the lifelike 360° sand table again, and asked:

"Alori, where did you see the gathering of border troops?"

"This place." Alori spent a few seconds comparing the scenes in his memory and pointed to the outer corner of the northern corner of the easternmost part of the territory.

"Yes, this should be the place."

When Alori determined the location, the ten centimeter little gray wind disappeared on the spot. The next moment, it reorganized its body at the place pointed by Alori and asked:

"Is there a specific number of people?"

"Three to five hundred, right?" Alori said uncertainly.

"Three hundred or five hundred?" Little Gray Feng, who was not satisfied, raised her head and looked at Alori. She needed a more accurate answer.

"I didn't get too close, so I looked away from a distance. There were hundreds of people anyway," Alori said.

"..." It seemed that Alori didn't just rush in and "sneak" without anyone noticing. Both Xiao Hui Feng and Milin looked at Alori strangely.

"Hey, what do you mean by this look in your eyes? Do you think I am the kind of fool who is full of muscles?" Alori said dissatisfied with the weird looks in Milin and Gray Feng's eyes.

Seeing the unmoved look of Milin and Gray Feng, Alori reluctantly added:

"Well, the main thing is that those guys are not mission targets, and we are not robbers. Why should I do it? What if I break the armor again?"

As soon as this reason came out, both Milin and Hui Feng withdrew their gazes with the same expressions. Alori, who was trusted in this regard, felt even more unhappy.

"Calculate it as five hundred people." Xiao Hui Feng, who overestimated the number of these troops, lowered his head and looked at the position pointed by Alori on the sand table.

In Little Gray Feng's eyes, a camp that could accommodate 500 people rose from the ground.

"How can it be so neat?" Alori whispered as he looked at the camp.

"What is the mix of arms? How many infantry? How many cavalry? How many long-range troops? What is the equipment level?" Xiao Huifeng continued to ask.

"They are basically infantry, mostly militiamen with poor equipment. There are some cavalry, but not much. There are only a few dozen horses in total. I don't know if there are any long-range troops."

Alori replied.

At the same time, soldiers who needed a microscope to see appeared in the miniature camp according to Alori's answer.

"That's pretty much it." Alori said as he looked at the miniature sculptures.

"Are there any livestock such as pack horses or cattle and sheep?" Gray Wind continued to ask more details.

"There seems to be some." Alori couldn't give a definite answer in this regard.

"That is to say, not many." Gray Wind nodded, and some livestock carrying goods also appeared around the camp.

"That's pretty much it. If you want to be more specific, you have to get closer. I was several miles away at the time. I only heard the hunter in the village mention it before I went over to take a look." Alori said.

"That's enough." Milin didn't complain about Alori, because this was not a task in the first place, and judging from the map, these assembled troops were still some distance away from the nearest village in the territory.

"Commander, do you need an analysis report?" Xiao Hui Feng raised his head and asked.

"It's not that complicated." Milin did not respond to Gray Feng's question, but said:

"There are not many baggage troops, which means that these troops did not travel long distances. Most of them are militia, which means they were gathered temporarily. To sum up, these troops must be coming towards us."

"There is a high probability that this is the case, but we do not rule out other extremely low-probability possibilities." Xiao Hui Feng nodded slightly and agreed with Milin's speculation.
