Legacy of the Betelgeuse

All the clans' leaders immediately resurrect themselves thanks to the [Betelgeuse's Dust Particle], they're all running to the formation and help those players that died and resurrect them as well. Ivonna and the others that were destroying the pillar slide down the sand and holding the frontline because the players are scattered all around the area, but then the ground is trembling and the sand is slowly sinking, everyone has no idea what's going on but Ivonna and the rest think it must be because they destroyed the pillar and the sand is now sinking and disappearing from the map.

Everyone is looking at the sand on their feet and then they realize that half of the map is covered by sand, the pyramid that they thought it's only 100 meters now it's 200 meters tall and it's going to be a problem for them to reach the top of the pyramid now. They can see the floor on their feet and they see some of the tiles with 60 centimeters square have many holes in them and that's where all the sand go into.

Ivonna looks at Hans and Leo, she shakes her head then looks at the rest of the pillars. She regrets that she ordered them to destroy the sea of sand's pillar first even though that there's another pillar that they can destroy first which is the pillar with the sun symbol on it since it's daytime, but there's nothing she can do about it since she and all of the players didn't know about it.

Once all the players have been resurrected, they're all regrouping and looking at the pyramid. All the Ophiuchus are standing at the front then Kingstar looks at them while raising his eyebrows.

"What's next?"

Ivonna looks at Hans and nods, Hans then looks at Kingstar while pointing at the pillar with the sun symbol on it.

"We are going to destroy that pillar next, but the problem is that once I checked it earlier, it's invulnerable and can't be attacked. It seems that the second phase is starting and we just need to wait until the pillar is vulnerable."

Kingstar is humming with understanding while tightening his hand on his sword's handle.

"So the second phase is starting, huh? I wonder what we are going to deal with this time..."

Kingstar looks around and he looks confused, Queenstar looks at him while raising her eyebrow.

"What's wrong?"

Kingstar is shaking his head.

"Where's he? He's not with us right now, is he dead somewhere?"

Ivonna checks on her friendlist and she shakes her head.

"No, he's alive. I think he's blending in with the players at the back."

Kingstar is humming with understanding, then Atraxthes stands up from his throne then looks at them, he's pointing his spear at them with his glowing eyes wide open.

"You dare to destroy one of my precious pillars?! You will pay for this!"

The floor is making noises and then spikes come out from the holes where all the sand goes, the spikes are moving from the nearest tiles from the pyramid and diagonally move to the next tile. Everyone is surprised and looks at the tile they're standing on, some of them have no holes and some have, Kingstar immediately looks back and points his finger to the side.

"Get off of the tiles with holes! Everyone scatters!"

All the players look down on the tile they're standing on, and those who're standing on top of the tiles with holes immediately jump away, and unfortunately some of them jump to their death because they jump too far off and land on the tile with holes in it. The tiles that don't have holes in them suddenly the surface split into half and move to the side, covering the tiles beside them that have holes. Everyone is surprised and immediately moves their feet to the next tile, and just from that, lots of players are dead because of the trap.

I look at Ivonna and the others at the front and they're safe, this phase is actually easy if they're not stacking sticking to each other like that and all they have to do is just move from side to side. Kingstar looks at the players scattering around and finally being able to dodge the death trap, but he looks disappointed when hundreds of them couldn't even manage to survive this simple death trap and they're unable to resurrect them because the death trap keeps coming.

Leo is pointing at the sun pillar.

"The pillar is vulnerable! We should attack it now."

Kingstar is pointing at the sun pillar with his sword.

"Let's destroy the pillar! Charge!"

I run and approach them, Kingstar looks at me and he waves at me and signals me to hit the pillar with them. I shake my head and point at the pyramid.

"You guys just stay near the pyramid! If can, resurrect the players as well! Let me handle the pillar on my own this time!"

All the players are looking at me then they're all looking at Kingstar, Ivonna nods with understanding.

"Let's go, if he says he can handle it, then there's nothing to be worried about. Once the barrier is gone, we only have 3 minutes before the barrier goes up again. We only have 2 minutes and the last one minute is to get off of the pyramid."

Kingstar is nodding with understanding and turns around.

"Alright! Resurrect the players then surround the pyramid! As soon as the barrier disappears, don't hesitate and climb the pyramid and blast Atraxthes with everything you have!"

All the players nod with understanding and then they all start moving toward the pyramid and some of them go back to resurrect the players. Lothair looks at me and he nods.

"Wait until all of us are ready in position then you can destroy the pillar."

I nod.

"I know. Don't worry."

I look at the pillar and start bombarding it with spells, and in less than a minute the health of the pillar is 100.000 left and everyone isn't in position yet, they're all still busy dodging the death trap and resurrecting the players. Atraxthes looks at me and he's pointing his spear at the pillar, he looks so pissed.

"My pillar! You will not get it this time!"

Suddenly all the death traps are coming toward me from all directions, I see the spikes are coming toward me so I climb up the pillar and get high as possible. Kingstar and the others look at me and they're grateful that I offered myself to destroy the pillar because if I didn't, they're all will die from the death trap because it's impossible for them to dodge it with that many players around the pillar.

I'm staring at the players and they're all in the position, Ivonna turns her head and looks at me, she nods and so I jump down and cast all that I have in my spellbook. The pillar is cracking and then crumbling down to the ground, Atraxthes is screeching in pain and then he falls to his throne again. The barrier disappears and Kingstar is pointing his sword at him.

"Attack!"

Everyone climbs up the pyramid, the archers and spellcasters are bombarding Atraxthes with every DPS skill they have, it doesn't matter how small their damage is but as long as it has rapid damage or tick damage it's enough to lower his health. All the melee players are on top and some of them even use daggers and short swords because it's faster for them to swing the weapon and increase their ASPD.

I'm looking at Atraxthes' HP

Ivonna looks at the time and she yells.

"All the melee it's time to leave! Jump off of the pyramid now!"

All of them turn around and run to the edge and jump off of the pyramid while the spellcasters and the archers keep shooting their arrows and spells at Atraxthes, and once the melee players are halfway down the pyramid, Kingstar orders the range players to get off of the pyramid as well. As soon as they're all off the pyramid, Atraxthes wakes up and rebuilds the barrier, and this time there are no casualties. Everyone is cheering when they look at Atraxthes' HP, his HP is [42.148] which is great because they manage to lower his health by half from his previous current HP.

Kingstar is smiling happily.

"We can do this, we are going to kill him on the next phase!"

Atraxthes is groaning in pain while holding his head.

"You! You dare to come here and destroy everything that I have preserved!"

Atraxthes then looks at his hourglass and flips it down.

"I, the Keeper of Time have seen the past, present, and future. I will bring the past to the present and see if you can win against yourself!"

Thousands of shadows appear on the pyramid, and all the players are shocked when they see themselves over there. The shadow of Ophiuchus is standing in front of Atraxthes and Kingstar's shadow is in the middle while pointing his greatsword at Kingstar.

Kingstar scoffs and raises his eyebrow.

"You're challenging me? Bring it on."
