Looking at the stats of the reward he got he cannot believe it. Argus was dumbfounded as he got a universal armament. They said that it was very hard to find and obtain a universal armament, especially of the armor type as it was more scarce than weapon type Universal Armament.
And Argus cannot exactly describe what he felt right now. An indescribable happiness? Or maybe even doubt as he gaze blankly at the status window of the mimic armor that he got. It had taken him a few minutes to realize that he was not dreaming.
"To think I will get a universal armament when I just awakened for less than a month. I felt like something really dangerous will happen to me after I formed my core. The system or the heavens will not let me receive this without return."(Argus)
Argus thought as he was a believer of the quote 'equivalent exchange'. He cannot calm down for a while as he was thinking about this.
"It's no use thinking about it. I need to try it's function. Okay, can you hear me? You have a consciousness right? Hmm I cannot call you hey everytime I talk to you isn't it? Okay let's name you. Hmm..."(Argus)
Argus was thinking deeply for an appropriate name but he cannot think of a name fitting for it.
"Zhuanyi.... Zhuan. Your name form now on is Zhuan a short term form Zhuan Yi. One of the ancient human languages that means transforming armor. Do you like it? From now on your name should be Zhuan. Please protect me from now on."(Argus)
As if to answer him, the tattered robe in his hands began to stir as if caught by a breeze. Argus simply nodded in response.
"Eat this armor for a while. Then try to mimic it Zhuan."(Argus)
Argus then handed the reward he received from Leon to Zhuan. This was a reward for Zhuan's help in defeating the Abyssal Servant. Since the armor was F Rank, Argus chose not to wear it himself. He knew he needed to form his own core before he could use such high-ranking armor.
Argus decided to give the armor to Zhuan because Zhuan had told him it needed to consume armor to increase its realm. This seemed like a perfect opportunity to test it out.
"Can you eat this? Its realm is higher than yours, though."(Argus)
Zhuan fluttered in response, showing that it was okay. Wudi explained that while it would take a few days to completely consume the armor and increase its realm, it could immediately copy the appearance of the armor after ingesting it. Argus was amazed by this and quickly 'fed' the armor to Zhuan.
Suddenly, the robe that Argus was holding, which was actually Zhuan, began to flutter and transform. It changed into a large, fierce mouth that looked like a beast's. The mouth, filled with many sharp fangs, opened wide, signaling Argus to place the armor inside.
At first, Argus was shocked by the sudden transformation, but he was not afraid. He followed Zhuan's instructions and carefully placed the armor into the open mouth. After the armor was inside, the mouth closed, and Argus could hear the sound of chewing. He knew that Zhuan was now digesting the armor, and he waited with interest to see the results.
Not long after, a distinct gulping sound was heard. Zhuan informed Argus that it had finished ingesting the armor. Argus nodded and checked Zhuan's stats, but he didn't see any immediate changes.
Then, Argus noticed the beast-like mouth slowly transforming. It began to reshape and change into the armor it had consumed. The armor took on a sleek, dark appearance, similar to high-tech combat gear. It was form-fitting and designed for both protection and agility, with intricate details that gave it a powerful and refined look.
Extending from the shoulders and down the back was a long, flowing robe. The robe added a touch of grandeur to the armor, fluttering elegantly as Zhuan moved. The entire ensemble projected strength and authority, ready for any battle.
"That's amazing."(Argus)
Argus was truly amazed by what he had just witnessed. The transformation of the armor was nothing short of incredible. Without wasting a moment, he quickly put on the armor that Zhuan had transformed into. Zhuan adjusted the armor's size to fit Argus perfectly. The adjustment was flawless, and Argus felt the armor conform to his body as if it had been custom-made for him.
Once the armor was on, Argus moved around to test it out. He was pleased to find that he felt no discomfort at all. The armor fit perfectly and allowed for complete freedom of movement.
"This is incredible."(Argus)
Argus said with genuine amazement.
"The temperature is also perfect. I don't have to worry about whether it's too hot or too cold anymore—I always feel just the right temperature. You're amazing, Zhuan."(Argus)
Argus's praise was heartfelt and enthusiastic. If Astrea were here, she would definitely feel extremely jealous of Zhuan because of the high praise Argus was giving. Fortunately, Astrea had not yet returned, so she missed out on seeing this impressive display of admiration. Zhuan just fluttered telling him that Argus praised was too much as it felt embarrassed. Argus just smiled of course.
"Let's check the other notification."(Argus)
Argus then check the other notification as he was just getting started.

Looking once again to the reward he received. Argus cannot calm himself. The reward of stats, skill points, and skill slot is one thing but the last title and skill he got was the best reward he could get.
'Another Unrank Skill and title! The effect was also amazing and there is even a lock skill effect that I cannot see.'(Argus)
Argus heart starts to pound fast as he read the effect of his skill.
'The skill name is one thing but its effect was not inferior to my Asura Physique. It's a pity that I cannot still see my 2 sovereign's skill effect but I will probably see it after I reach the next realm.'(Argus)
Argus calmed himself down once again as his emotions almost spilled. If he was alone in his private room maybe he would start laughing or even giggle like an idiot right now but he did not do it. It was hard to stop himself from doing it right now.
'Sigh... The feeling of danger became stronger and stronger after I read these notifications.'(Argus)
Argus face started to frown as the feeling of death increases and he did not like this. Something dangerous is lurking around him but he can not pin point where would it come from.
'I need to prepare thoroughly. I felt that what was about to come may cause me my life.'(Argus)
Argus look solemn as he finished planning on what to do. He waited for a while until Astrea came back and they returned to the village with his mask of course.
