Chapter 22: Like An Undead
Igaris ordered Dred, Alpha, and the other Elite Knight to follow him, while instructing the rest to engage the surrounding skeletal knights near the Twelve Guardian Knights.
His goal was clear: to distract the warrior-level enemies and take down the twelve Elite Guardian Knights one by one, exploiting their vulnerabilities.
Clatter, clatter!
Soon, the sixty or so undead of Igaris's Acquisition Army moved into action, clashing with the enemy forces.
Meanwhile, Igaris and the three elites targeted three of the Guardian Knights who still stood motionless, chanting in their strange, guttural language.
Igaris slashed forward with his blade, assisted by Alpha, who swiftly disarmed their target, making it a lot easier for him.
At the same time, Dred and the unnamed Elite Knight attacked another Guardian with synchronized strikes.
Clang, clang, thud!
As the Guardians collapsed onto the rocky surface, broken and defeated, Igaris quickly stepped forward and used Acquisition on them one after another.
In the process, one of the Guardians bit into his right leg, nearly gouging out flesh and bone with its sharp jagged teeth.
The pain was sharp, but it lasted only a moment.
