"Do you even want the rats? I suppose you can use their skins," Alex said.
"Oh, if they were bigger than my arms, then they can be good meat too," the chief said. "How many are there?"
Alex checked the number, but it was just too many to take his time to count. "Over 50, not over 80," he said. "They're quite fast too. At this rate, they might reach here in about 15 or so minutes."
"Oh, that is quite fast," the chief said. Any idea how strong they are?
Alex tried looking at their footsteps and just how much force they were putting on the ground. It was a little hard to say as the solid ground barely gave away under any force at all.
"They're not as strong, I would say," Alex said. "Compared to your tribe, I would say about average in strength, maybe even weaker than your average fighters. But I would still consider having the stronger fighters ready just in case."
