Chapter 244
Chapter 245 The Awakening
The dragon had no idea that a team of humans was quietly approaching its lair.
“This is terrifying. The atmosphere is crushing. I can’t transform, and every ability is sealed. Is this Troy’s strength p>
“After Troy’s distortion, the planet’s energy was completely locked down. Stones that stay near him for too long turn into anti-magic stones, perfect material for suppression cuffs. We need to be careful not to wake him. Once we grab some stones and leave, we’ll make a fortune p>
“When does he usually wake up p>
“Relax, it’s only been ten years since he last woke up. He usually sleeps for a hundred years at a time p>
The moment those words were spoken, a summoning circle suddenly appeared in the starry sky.
From within the summoning circle, an intoxicating aura spread across the entire planet.
The mountain-sized dragon snapped its eyes open.
Before anyone could react, two amber
react, two amber eyes the size of lakes locked onto the summoning circle in the sky.
It let out a furious roar, shaking off massive rocks, dust, trees, and weeds as its scales tightened, then it spread its wings and took to the air.
The summoning circle was far too small.
It felt as if one claw could puncture it.
The dragon circled restlessly, roaring in agitation.
It had slept for far too long, so long that it had forgotten how to control its own energy and knew no spells at all.
Inside the villa.
Joanna stared at the summoning circle, which had shown no response for a while.
“What’s going on? Did the summon fail this time p>

Lucien spoke from the side, “Queen, could it be that your summoning circle is too small? Last time, I had to compress my body just to squeeze in. After we twisted, our bodies became extremely, extremely large p>
“Makes sense p>
She had never thought about that before. When Nighthowl arrived, he was just a small wolf cub. Alwyn had come in human form.
Lucien, on the other hand, was a white tiger back then, and he had practically shoved her into the wall.
If the summoning circle was still a fixed size, it really was no longer suitable. As her strength increased, the summoning circle should increase as well.
But the summoning circle couldn’t be interrupted. Otherwise, Joanna would suffer spiritual backlash.
More importantly, she could already feel it. On the other side of the summoning circle, a contract beast was frantically calling out to her.
Joanna bought a large batch of materials again, then used spatial cutting to slice the entire summoning circle free.
After that, she entered the Stellar Dominion.
She fed the materials into the summoning circle and carried out a second upgrade.
She was now very familiar with summoning circle research, and combined with her powerful spirit, she could pull off operations like this.
If this had been back in her first year, she would have been forced to take backlash instead.
At last, the summoning circle began to expand.
It expanded by a full ten times.
On the other side of the stars.
Amid continuous roars, the black dragon finally dug up fragments of control from his memory and began mobilizing his physical strength, forcibly compressing his body.
However, his strength was simply too terrifying. Even after his body compressed with loud cracking sounds, it was still enormous.

He kept compressing, and his solid scales fell away, leaving his body covered in wounds.
At last, he shrank down to roughly the size of a villa.
But he couldn’t compress his body any further.
Just as despair was setting in, the summoning circle suddenly expanded tenfold.
It was enough for him to enter.
In the next instant, the massive black dragon plunged straight inside.
Inside the Stellar Dominion.
The summoning circle finally burst with light.
This time, the glow was black.
A dragon the size of a villa emerged from the summoning circle.
Its body was covered in wounds.
Joanna cried out in alarm and hurriedly bathed him in Lunar Aegis, only to find that the light couldn’t get anywhere near the black dragon.
She frowned and immediately opened his status panel.
“Contracted Companion: Troy Hurlbutt
“Race: Dark Dragon
“Rarity: Transcendent-level
“Level: 30
“Attributes: Vitality 60,000, Strength 80,000, Agility 30,000, Spirit 10,000
“Talents: Anti-Magic Field, Blackhole Physique, Dark Abyss
“Skills: Black Corrosion, Dark Tide, Dark Storm, Absolute Immunity, Dragon’s Power, Overgod Flesh, Dragonblood Warlord p>
Joanna understood immediately.
Anti-Magic Field prevented all magic-type energy from getting close to him, even healing.
3/4
And the Blackhole Physique meant that anything would be drawn into his body and eventually converted into energy.
Thankfully, even if he couldn’t be healed, he could still eat.
“Troy, are you okay? Can you stay conscious? Open your mouth. I’ll give you something to eat p>
Troy opened his amber dragon eyes and, with effort, slowly opened his mouth.
Joanna immediately poured in life potions, along with several elixirs and fruits with stat buffs.
After a full round of feeding, the wounds on Troy’s body visibly improved, his dragon eyes remaining locked on Joanna the entire time, and a surge of energy flowed from his body and poured into her.
