A scream echoed as the head fell to the ground, and Zulud seized the "stone" in his hand at that moment.
When he saw the object, he was instantly stunned.
Is this what they call a Divine Artifact?
He had thought it would be some kind of glowing treasure bead, or a colorful crystal, or perhaps a gorgeously designed weapon.
What he didn't expect was just an ordinary-looking stone.
To call it a stone wasn't quite accurate— it was more like a dragon scale made of stone, with that distinctive raised area and pattern of scales still visible on it. For some reason, this dragon scale had no colors like a stone, yet beneath its simple appearance, a faint and peculiar gleam seemed to flow.
He grasped the "stone" tightly and tried to feel it.
All of a sudden, with a hum, the "stone" vibrated, and a powerful energy converged between his hands, causing everything around him to tremble.
