"Alright, then I feel reassured. Mike, I need you all to open up a spot that can cover about ten miles in all directions behind this base." Blake was just making an estimate about the forest.
"How about you relay a message back to me once you get a better understanding of how much space you need? Because either way, we can get everything done in a day with earth magic easily." Mike suggested.
"Alright, we will bring coms. Have a man follow us to stay posted near the void entrance to be our messenger." Blake decided this was also the best way. "Also… if we are invading someone else's territory, just force them to submit. Send out a representative of the race that is trying to stop us and have them deal with it. Making them submit should not be a problem."
"Understood." Mike nodded. He had no issues with this. They only needed to make them submit, not kill them needlessly.
