Five o'clock in the morning on May 1st.
In the square where the dragon was summoned, the great magician Dennis stood next to the altar.
Ruan Ruan's face was rosy. She wore a golden jeweled crown on her head and her hair was tied up behind her head.
She was wearing a sacrificial garment that saints of all generations could only wear on important occasions.
The altar where the summoning ceremony is held is as large as two football fields. This altar is located in the northernmost part of the palace, on 800 stone steps (800 steps converted into floor height is about 44 meters high). There are three altars of slightly smaller areas from highest to lowest.
The altar where the summoning ceremony takes place is at the highest point of the entire palace.
From here, you can overlook the entire palace.
On the altar, in addition to the great magician Dennis who presided over the ceremony, there was also a team of nearly 20 Holy Dragon Knights.
These knights, with their own dragons, were scattered around the edge of the altar.
Chi Sui is a baroness, so she can stand at the first holy altar at the bottom, closest to the altar, together with the royal family.
It is said to be the closest to the altar, but in fact, the holy altar where Chi Sui is located is separated from the altar by nearly two hundred steps.
From Chi Sui's perspective, he could only see the Holy Dragon Knight's dragon, and he had to guess who the person was based on his clothes. To be honest, the clarity at a concert was higher than this.
Fortunately, I didn’t have to climb the stairs step by step to watch the ceremony. If I really climbed the stairs, I would be exhausted.
The nobles who came to watch the ceremony were all brought up by trained dragons.
But... riding a dragon isn't a great feeling, and it's really unbearable without a windshield.
While Chi Sui was daydreaming, Bev finally arrived.
She got off the dragon and walked over here.
Because she had a good relationship with Chi Sui, she stood directly next to Chi Sui and did not stand with the other princesses.
Although Chi Sui is a baroness, she should have stood with other earls, but these earls were unwilling to stand with a woman like her, so Chi Sui was bullied by the "baronial arena".
With Bev's arrival, Chi Sui no longer feels lonely.
"Why are you so late?"
Chi Sui asked in a low voice.
Bev scratched her head. "It's a little strange, I can't even remember when I returned to my room last night."
Chi Sui was stunned: "Did you drink too much at the dinner?"
Bev shrugged, "Maybe… I'm so sleepy."
It was Chi Sui’s first time to participate in the summoning ceremony. Although she was not the protagonist, she was still very excited.
"How long will the summoning ritual last?"
Bev scratched her chin. "Actually, if your magic isn't strong, the dragon you summon won't be strong either."
"So contracts usually don't take too long."
"But if the magical element is strong, the dragon it attracts will also be strong."
"Even if a powerful dragon is attracted by the ritual, it will not submit to humans. Therefore, at this time, the summoner will use various methods to fight with the dragon."
"To put it simply, you use the power of the Holy Altar to bring the dragon here, and then through your own efforts, you will keep grinding until the dragon is willing to submit to you."
Chi Sui said, "How long will it last at most?"
Bev glanced at the Great Magician Dennis with concern. "It depends on how long the person conducting the summoning ritual can activate the ritual."
Chi Sui frowned: "In other words, if your brother's magic power is exhausted and Ruan Ruan hasn't succeeded, the summoning ritual will fail?"
Bev nodded, "Yes."
Chi Sui sighed: "It's not easy to be a great magician."
Bev subconsciously looked at a member of the Holy Dragon Knights on the altar.
Chi Sui raised his eyebrows: "Why are you looking at Fu Mingcheng?"
"Do you like him that much?"
Bev bit her lip. "Do you know why I like him?"
Chi Sui became interested: "Why?"
"He's the strongest dragon summoner I've ever seen."
"It only took him two hours to contract the fire dragon."
Chi Sui didn't understand: "Just because of this? You fell in love with him?"
Bev turned her head and looked at Chi Sui seriously: "Chi Sui, you are not from this world, you don't understand."
"Every moment you summon a dragon, or even contract a dragon, you are risking your life."
"Dragons are evil. When you establish a connection with a dragon through the summoning ritual, you will be affected by the dragon's negative emotions. At the same time, the unruly dragon will try to kill you and end the summoning early."
"And if you want to successfully contract it, you can only suppress it with your own faith and strength."
"Dragons are not humans. They are wild and difficult to tame. It is difficult to make a dragon submit to you in a short period of time."
Bev said seriously.
Chi Sui was silent.
Bev looked at the altar again: "Maybe you can't understand it, but soon you will know it."
Chi Sui didn't say anything else and looked quietly at Ruan Ruan and Dennis on the altar.
Ruan Ruan clenched her fists as she watched the rising sun slowly emerge from the clouds.
"Dennis."
Ruan Ruan turned and looked at Dennis.
Dennis didn't say anything and didn't look at Ruan Ruan.
Ruan Ruan has been getting closer to Charles recently, and Dennis has noticed it a long time ago.
They haven't spoken to each other for a long, long time.
Ruan Ruan's heart trembled.
She looked at Dennis quietly for a long time before she chuckled.
The smile was as pure and brilliant as when we first met.
"If I die on the altar, can you tell me you love me before I fall asleep?"
The beads on the golden jeweled crown fell on the corners of Ruan Ruan's eyes.
Dennis was suddenly stung by this scene.
He pursed his lips, looked towards the direction where the sun was rising, and said coldly: "Saint, if it doesn't work, just give up halfway and don't be stubborn."
Ruan Ruan looked at Dennis quietly.
Her fingers trembled slightly. "I have no way out, Dennis."
Dennis frowned and suddenly looked directly into Ruan Ruan's eyes.
Ruan Ruan's eyes flashed with sadness, but she still smiled: "I have no way out, Dennis."
"In my life, everything I do is beyond my control."
Dennis pursed his lips and gripped the magic wand tightly.
"Tell me your difficulties."
Dennis Road.
Ruan Ruan looked at Dennis quietly without saying anything.
Dennis' chest heaved. He took a step forward, but Ruan Ruan suddenly turned around and faced Dennis with her back.
"Dennis, no matter what happens later, the summoning ceremony cannot be canceled."
Ruan Ruan looked at the white light on the skyline, lowered her eyes and covered her chest: "Your limit is eight hours. Within eight hours, as long as I don't say stop, no matter what happens, you can't stop."
Dennis' fingers trembled, and his breathing became a little unstable: "Ruan Ruan, why is the aura of the power of light on you different?"
Ruan Ruan's body stiffened.
Dennis stared at Ruan Ruan's back and said, "I am more familiar with the power of light in your body than anyone else."
"Tell me what happened, what difficulties did you encounter, and why is there so much pure, huge light power in your body that does not belong to you?"
"Ruan Ruan, tell me, I will do my best to help you."
The more Dennis spoke, the more anxious his voice became.
