Based on the materials used, golems could roughly be divided into Flesh Golems, Clay Golems, Stone Golems, Metal Golems, Supreme Golems, and so on.
Flesh Golems were rather unique. Their power depended on the quality of the flesh used to create them, resulting in an extremely broad range between their upper and lower limits.
At the low end were low-grade Flesh Golems made from the flesh of wild beasts, whose combat strength was not much greater than that of a Novice Knight.
At the high end were Divine Body Golems made from the flesh of gods. Even True Spirit Wizards had to give them a wide berth.
Clay Golems were more often used as laborers. Their combat strength was not particularly formidable, and at most they could bully Apprentice Knights.
Stone Golems were somewhat better, but they were only on the level of Formal Knights.
Metal Golems, on the other hand, came in far greater variety.
Steel Golems, Adamantine Golems, Shadow Steel Golems, Vajra Golems, and so on.
Generally speaking, the more precious the material, the more powerful the golem created from it.
Even the lowest-grade Steel Golem possessed combat strength on the level of a Legendary Knight.
Shadow Steel Golems and Vajra Golems could even contend with formal wizards.
Naturally, the cost of manufacturing such golems was astronomical as well.
Sunan did not even know whether the Starlight Continent could still gather all the materials needed to create Shadow Steel Golems and Vajra Golems.
As for Supreme Golems, they were the original form of magic-powered constructs.
Building upon this primitive form, wizards had also developed legendary construct lifeforms such as Arcane Guardians, Magic Powered Mechas, Tower Spirit Constructs, Mithril Sages, and more.
These legendary construct lifeforms were generally used to deal with gods.
Besides the golems mentioned above, there
