Legacy of the Betelgeuse

I log in to the game and I'm at the oasis while everyone else is still gathering the raid teams on each faction. I'm going to wait and read the Book of Sahuurn, and the event that will happen in the future, I look at the nearest event which is the meteorite that will hit the desert. Based on the in-game year, it will occur in 6 months in real-time from now, looking at the level cap, we should be able to deal with it and I hope everyone is ready for another invasion. Thinking about it, I should prepare myself as well since it's going to be a pain.

A portal appears near the Oasis, I look at the portal while sitting under the shade of the palm tree. Kingstar and Queenstar are the first people that come out from the portal, then they're followed by Boschwell, Liu, Aeris, Madhan, and Edmondo with their commanders behind them. Hundreds of portals then appear and the players are coming out from the portal, they're all fully prepared and their equipment is worth more than thousands of dollars. 100.000 players total from the Aarus Empire's faction are standing in front of me.

Hundreds of portals are appearing again, and this time Diamond, Lothair, Ken, and Cho Ahn come out from the portal with the players from the Eluna Empire. I thought that those players from the Aarus Empire's faction would give the players from the Eluna Empire's faction a cold shoulder, but turns out they're giving them a warm welcome and shaking their hands in style. When they want to achieve the same thing, they take aside their differences and focus on what's in front of them, this is great because they have finally resolved the problem between those two factions.

The last faction has finally appeared, Ivonna, Alessandro, and Sigryd come out from the portals and followed by the players from the Alliance Kingdoms' faction. I get up and walk toward the Ophiuchus, all the players are looking at me with curiosity since they don't know who I am in this kind of outfit and the staff and spellbook in my hand. Kingstar is smiling when he sees me, then he wraps his hand around my neck and it feels kind of weird and uncomfortable while the others are looking and chuckling at me. I don't know what I should do and so I'm just standing here and looking down at the sand under my feet.

Kingstar is raising his hand.

"I almost forget to tell you all that he's our intel and he was the one who helped us gather the information of the dungeon. So, it's thanks to him that we have reached this far. Oh and please don't bother him because he's a very shy person, so please understand that and let him do whatever he wants to do because he's very good at what's he doing."

All the players are clapping their hands and whistling at me, they're all thanking me and for some reason, it's really embarrassing. I just nod at keep looking down at the sand, then Kingstar removes his arm from me and looks at the Oasis.

"Alright ladies and gents, let's clear this dungeon once and for all!"

We are diving into the dungeon, then we are looking at the city from above while we are waiting for all the players to get inside the dungeon. Kingstar is putting his right foot on the rock while crossing his arms.

"We are going to do the same strat as before."

Diamond looks at Ken and his friends.

"You guys ready? Because we are all."

Ken and his friends are nodding and smiling, Ken is stretching his body and arms.

"Alright, let's go!"

Ken, Teke, Anzai, Kami-sama, and Saburo are sliding down to the city. They're all running toward the castle while the archers and spellcasters are on the edge of the cliff with their weapons ready in their hands, I look at them all and they all look so confident. To be honest, seeing this many archers and spellcasters in the front line is kind of overkill but I'm not going to complain.

15 minutes have passed and then a notification appears in front of me.

[You who dare to enter my territory shall not go unpunished!]

[The Lost Dynasty: Mauron Empire [Sunny] gate is closed!]

[The Lost Dynasty: Mauron Empire [Sunny] will begin in: 30secs]

[300.000 Players are currently inside the dungeon with the average level is 300]

[The Lost Dynasty: Mauron Empire [Sunny] is generating...]

[The Lost Dynasty: Mauron Empire [Sunny] is generated]

[The Keeper of Time is watching]

[First Stage: Game of Tag!]

[The Cursed Souls have been forcefully awakened by the Keeper of Time!]

[The Cursed Souls will try and drag anything that alive down to the place where they have been suffering in their entire life!]

[The Cursed Soul's ability is to corrupt the living souls, beware of their touches!]

[The Cursed Souls will be wandering around the city and they can smell the living souls! Don't try to hide and keep running! You can kill the Cursed Souls but it is better to avoid them!]

[You have 3 chances to not get touched by The Cursed Soul! Once you get touched for the 4th time, you will be teleported outside the dungeon and cannot re-enter!]

[The Cursed Souls cannot wander in the living world for a long time, they will go back to the world where they belong. You have 1 hour to run and avoid the Cursed Souls, but be aware, the longer they smell the living souls, the faster and stronger they are!]

[Objective: Survive!]

[May the Betelgeuse Bless you!]

Wow, the average level is 300? So all these players are maxed level.

Kingstar looks at the archers and spellcasters.

"Alright, let's wait for Ken and his friends to do their job."

They all look at Kingstar and nod with understanding.

Ken and his friends are luring the cursed souls around the city and bringing some of them toward us on the cliff, but since they have already gone down the cliff, they can't get back up and the only way to go up is to go to the exit which is on the other side of the map, so they will go to the bottom of the cliff and let those archers and spellcasters from above to handle the rest.

I can see Ken and his friends now, I look down and they're running quite faster than back then. I think they drink a speed potion for this, and they won't have a problem getting caught up by the cursed souls. Kingstar lifts his hand and the archers and spellcasters are waiting for his hand to go down, they're all waiting patiently, then Kingstar is pointing his finger at hundreds of cursed souls. behind Ken and his friends.

"Fire!"

Fire arrows, silver arrows, steel arrows, and poison arrows are showering the cursed souls while the spellcasters cast fireballs, firebolts, ice bolts, ice shards, lighting strikes, lightning bolts, and chain lightning. I see those cursed souls getting swallowed by spells and arrows, so many colors and the explosion makes it looks like fancy fireworks. In just less than a minute, all the cursed souls that were following Ken and the others disappear and turn into ashes.

Kingstar is smiling and nodding proudly.

"Good job guys. Now we wait."

Lothair is looking down and looking at Ken, he yells.

"How are you guys doing down there? Getting comfortable?"

Ken and his friends look up and give him thumbs up, Ken smiles while lifting a meat skewer in his hand.

"Oh, we are just enjoying our food while we are enjoying the view from down here! Keep it up, guys! I paid quite a lot of money for the front seat, you know!"

Everyone who hears Ken's word is chuckling, Lothair is laughing so hard and shaking his head.

"You cheeky bastards. Don't die!"

Ken is giving him a thumbs up.

"Got it!"

The notification has finally appeared.

[You have 30 minutes left, the Keeper of Time seems to be impatient and wants the intruders to leave this place]

[The Cursed Souls now know your location, you will now not be able to hide!]

[Good luck and May the Betelgeuse Bless you!]

Kingstar looks at the archers and spellcasters.

"Alright, now give your all and kill those motherf*ckers!"

Just like that, all the archers use all their AoE skills and shower the cursed souls with arrows while the spellcasters use their high-tier spells to wipe them up. From exploding arrows, freezing arrows, aimed shots, arrow showers, firestorms, thunderstorms, tornados, and boulder smash, they're killing the cursed souls like it's nothing at all. Ken and his friends at the bottom handle the cursed souls that are approaching them, and that's when all the melee players go down and help them out. I watch players sliding down the cliff and immediately attacking the cursed souls and they're all so slick and clean on handling those cursed souls, not a single player is getting touched by them.

[You successfully survived the first stage!]

[The first stage will be closed in: 120 minutes]

Everyone is cheering when they see the notification in front of their screens. Queenstar happily smiles at Kingstar.

"That was a clean run."

Kingstar is nodding proudly.

"Yeah, it was."

Kingstar looks at the players and raises his sword.

"Alright! The first stage is clear, let's go to the castle now!"

Everyone is lifting their weapons and cheering in excitement.
