Ah, Andorhal (14)

After eliminating this terrifying enemy, Taelan surveyed the guards still fighting around him. Unfamiliar with the enemy's traits, they had already lost dozens of men to these newly appeared Bone Golems.

However, after personally killing one Bone Golem, Taelan had found a method of his own. These specially enhanced Undead were difficult to kill with magic or blades; only priests' Holy Light spells were the best solution.

The ultimate objective for human knights in battle was to cripple the enemy's ability to move, rather than directly destroy them.

Taelan loudly reminded the nearby guards how they should fight. Upon receiving their commander's instructions, these elite soldiers began changing their tactics, using their smaller builds and nimble turns to maneuver around the Undead.

The Undead constructs possessed nothing but brute strength; if they could not hit anyone, it was useless. Soon, a second construct was knocked to the ground, and the prepared battle priests unleashed another concentrated barrage, drawing cheers of victory from the crowd.

Once Taelan's breathing had steadied, he prepared to join the fighting beside him and support the others. But as he passed the Skeleton frame that was thoroughly dead, the construct's mangled body exploded without warning. Dozens of sharp ribs and countless bone fragments engulfed Taelan's entire body.
