Chapter 549 I will share them with you  

When the undead started rising from the sand, the elves wasted no time and began attacking them. However, due to the enclosed space, many of them were unable to use their most powerful skills to avoid harming others nearby and damaging the structure. Consequently, they had to rely on their weapons to fight the growing horde of undead saturating every corner of the circular structure.

Yue shouted at Nox to stay behind her and attack from a distance when one of the undead figures attempted to strike the lynx with its skeletal hand that transformed into a large blade unexpectedly.

After the first undead hand turned into a blade, many other undead body parts also began morphing into different weapons. Some even started spitting fire and sharp shards from their mouths. The elves' faces turned serious when their attacks barely made a dent in the skeletons shrouded in ragged clothes, almost as if they were crafted from unyielding steel.

The undead's hollow eyes gleamed with a golden glint before they began lunging at those around them, displaying no regard for the blows hitting their bodies as they were already walking dead.

The tension in the air heightened, but when one of the elves used his spiritual energy to strike one of the closest undead, his eyes sparkled with success as he managed to sever the undead's head.

He immediately shouted at everyone to utilize their spiritual energy, although not all of them possessed it. Those with spiritual energy gathered at the rear to cast spells and skills at the undead, while the rest stood at the front to defend and deflect the attacks. The situation gradually eased as the undead bodies started to break and disintegrate under the impact of the spiritual energy used against them. Wesley's eyes sparkled with joy as he watched the group of elves effortlessly taking care of the undead, even though the undead were quite powerful because they were formed in a tomb filled with divine energy. He noticed from the corner of his eye when the human floating beside him narrowed his eyes at the undead bodies.

Kyle raised his brow as his eyes caught a faint golden glow at the center of the undead bodies, draped in thin fabric. The glow was so subtle that if he hadn't spread out his scent perception skill, he would have never detected it. Not to mention, the pure divine energy surrounding it.

He noticed Wesley's sharp gaze, and his lips curled into a smirk because, for some reason, he had a feeling that whatever was inside the undead bodies was definitely not useless. That's why, before the old elf could stop him, he left Wesley's side like a breeze and landed on the sandy floor.

Kyle quietly positioned himself behind the group of elves battling and destroying the undead bodies. His gaze traced each attack as they tore through the undead skeletons, causing them to disintegrate into sand. Amidst the disintegration, he noticed the bodies left behind tiny golden beads, each no larger than a nail, that fell onto the sandy ground without any sound.

As the elves advanced towards the floating storage ring, defeating one undead after another with joyous expressions, Kyle softly murmured a few spells under his breath to control the sand and air around him. In the next second, the scattered beads on the sand rolled towards his feet, and he bend down to collect them in his palm.

Wesley's eyebrow twitched violently, and his urge to give the human a few good smacks almost got the better of him, but he held back and instead muttered curses under his breath. Just like Kyle suspected, the beads were filled with divine energy, which made them pretty valuable. Even though they only had a small amount of divine energy, it was pure. If someone absorbed it, they could very well boost their divine energy stat.

Kyle observed as Yue and the rest successfully reached the floating ring, with one of them beginning to examine its contents. At that instant, Sebastian turned back and gave him a sneer, implying that he hadn't contributed anything, hence they wouldn't share with him.

However, Sebastian's eyes narrowed when he noticed a cluster of tiny golden beads in the human's hands. Before the elven man could get a good look at the beads, they disappeared from the human's palm. Kyle spun around only to find Wesley's dark eyes glaring at him intensely. The old man was angry because the rest had done the labor while the human had singlehandedly gained nearly fifty percent of the rewards. It was unjust, and he wanted to instruct Kyle to give back the beads to the others, but before he could, the square-shaped artifact he had concealed in his sleeve before departing the building they were residing in began to vibrate.

Wesley blinked and pulled out the artifact from his sleeve. He shot Kyle one final glare and quickly turned to the side to check who was reaching out to him from the other supreme rank elves because only they could communicate with him through this artifact, as each of them possessed a similar one, just like him.

At the same time, the other elves took out the contents of the storage ring after breaking the weak barrier around it. However, they were disappointed to find only a large golden shield inside along with an ancient artifact that, upon some investigation, they realized was used for teleportation in times of danger.

Yue glanced at the shield and the round artifact, but they weren't useful to her, so she left them to the other elves. She then walked over to Kyle and circled his body while examining his empty hands.

"What were you picking? I was fighting, but I saw you pick something up from the sand."

Kyle was surprised that she noticed, unlike the others who were too busy reaching the storage ring. He chuckled, and a golden bead appeared in his palm.

"Just picking up what others ignored."

Yue glanced at the bead and picked it up from his palm with a curious expression. She had actually seen a few similar beads fall to the sand while she was fighting, but she didn't think they were valuable. But now that she looked at it closely, she noticed the pure divine energy around it. She sighed and placed the bead back in his palm.

"You always pick up good stuff!"

She blinked as more golden beads appeared on his palm, and he extended his hand towards her.

"I will share them with you since you didn't take the treasures from the storage ring. I collected them with effort, so make good use of them."

Yue chuckled at his words, and before she could decline, Kyle placed the beads in her palm and walked towards Wesley. She gave a resigned smile, stored the beads in her mind space, and then reached for the spirit that had been silently observing everything from a distance all this while.
