The black shell dome became big enough to cover up Wuying, Wuying sat comfortably inside, and even though it didn't exude any aura, the foreboding atmosphere around it gave one a feeling of the shadow of death.
This made Xue Fang wonder if a battle pet can also awaken.
Clearly, how Silverline Cat and Xue Fang moved together signified stealth synergy, but could that be considered a soul synergy?
Xue Fang didn't know the requirement of attaining a soul synergy and he felt he would have to know more about it.
"Perhaps it is a state of mind"
"I won't lose to this"
Xue Fang and Silverline Cat pounced on the black shell dome and continued to land punches on it but they were unable to penetrate the black shell dome defense.
It seemed the dragon scale Omni-armor and the black shell dome reinforced each other, and the black shell shield is a lowest-tier Common-grade, yet, Xue Fang punches were like throwing eggs at a rock.
It looked like a kid punching a bodybuilder, Wuying was like an immovable mountain, like a black hole, every shock was absorbed by the black shell dome and Xue Fang's punch power was dissipated like mere dust.

Just then, the black shell shield Wuying carried started expanding, and before he knew it, the black shell threatened to cover him up like prey but he reflexively sat down so his head wouldn't be knocked with the black shell shield roof which had become some domelike structure, forming an impregnable shelter all over him.
The feeling was glorious that at that moment, Wuying felt no weapon could hurt him in the dome of the shell, it was like an ultimate shield.
And immediately, he heard a voice.
'Soul synergy, I never thought I would attain it in this situation'
Wuying could sense that Xue Fang and Silverline Cat were still assaulting the done in all directions.
'An unsuccessful assault isn't an assault, while a warrior staying on a defensive path isn't a warrior'
Wuying thought in his mind, but deep down, he found no way to counterattack, even the synergy of the Silverline Cat and Xue Fang's stealth ability was so peak that he couldn't dream of it when the battle pet was in his ownership.
"Apart from defense, can I use this black shell dome to assault him?"
Wuying started thinking, he was fully aware of his avatar gear awakening, it was obvious it had taken on another graceful form, he scrutinized the scutes of the black shell, and it appeared the turnable scutes system had changed.
Aside from the eerie sound that echoed within, there were some unknown characters written on the inner scutes of the black shell dome, and these characters were glowing, their light illuminating the inside of the black shell dome.
Wuying could remember, this wasn't how the scutes looked like when he first saw them, with swallowed saliva, he cautiously rotated one of the scutes marked with a bizarre character, shifting it just slightly in a small arc.
Instinctively, Xue Fang and Silverline Cat jumped backward.
"For a moment, this black shell dome exudes a predatory aura"
At that time, Xue Fang felt he was about to be preyed on by the black shell dome, this made him jump backward and gauge the situation.
Just after Xue Fang had jumped about twenty feet backward, he started hearing some eery sound, nope, he recognized this sound, it was like a machine starting operation, it was whirring and all the scutes system at the outward surface of the black shell dome started whirring and rotating along their axis.
"This is superb!, so it wasn't a semi-awakening but a full one, Xue Fang, you had better surrender, this is what they called Gear Armament, when an avatar gear has undergone its first full awakening through soul synergy between it and the user, it becomes a martial fortification equipped for war"
Mr. Bao continued beckoning to Xue Fang but the latter didn't seem to care.
'What did he mean by first full awakening, does it mean a soul avatar can awaken as many times as possible, this should be saved for later'
Xue Fang thought as he saw the scutes of the black shell dome suddenly free themselves and start hovering and spinning a few inches above the black shell dome.
Now, Xue Fang was able to see how terrorizing the scutes were, and what he was unable to see when the scutes were still embedded in the black shell dome manifested in front of him, the scutes which were spinning had a very sharp edge glinting with a metallic sheen in the sunlight.
And with unusual speed, these hovering and spinning scutes launched themselves at Xue Fang, unbelievably changing trajectory, they were like blades crafted for bloodshed, and Xue Fang realized that if he didn't dodge, he was sure to be cut.
Silverline Cat was dodging with unbelievable agility and stealth surpassing that of a usual cat, Xue Fang thought that maybe he should will Silverline Cat to assault the black shell dome, perhaps it has sacrificed its defensive power for offensive power.
"Without the scutes, what is a shell"
But if Silverline Cat went to assault the black shell dome, would the spinning scutes follow it or gather to attack Xue Fang?
Although Xue Fang pitied Silverline Cat, he would prefer the force of the scute be divided.
However, the spinning scutes started gathering together, their metallike edges glinting in the sunlight, threatening to sever anything in their path.
Inside the back shell dome, Wuying didn't know how but when he turned that scute with a bizarre character in a small arc, a screen suddenly appeared on the surface of another scute, showing all what was happening, and the view was very clear that Wuying thought he was in some type of alien warship, the black shell dome ship.
The screen showed how the scute at the outer surface of the black shell dome freed themselves from their embedded state and started spinning, their horrifying edges glinting in the sunlight with a metallic sheen, threatening to cut anything in their path, even the smallest flying insect didn't go unharmed and was butchered into pieces, Wuying was able to see this because of the ultraclear screen that appeared on one of the scutes in the inside surface of the black shell dome.
