Legacy of the Betelgeuse

Chapter 151

Shazjae's head appeared from the underground and stared at his hand. He opened his palm and there was nothing in there. Shazjae growl angrily and then he stood up and looked around. He was looking for Trevor, but he wasn't in the sky. But then he looked down on the ground where the cloud of dust is still covering everyone's visions, and there he was, stood in front of Shazjae with his chained sickle dragged on the ground and a scythe in his right hand with the wolf floating around him as if he was guarding Trevor against everything that might threaten him.

Kingstar and the others ran toward Trevor.

"Trevor! You finally came! We were about to get annihilated by him."

A notification appeared in front of them. 

[You are under the dominion. A presence of a being that is higher than you, a ruler that will rule over you and take control of everything has arrived.]

[You are Yielded.]

[Your status values are reduced by half until you leave the dominion]

They all stumbled and looked at Trevor. Trevor turned his head and looked at them from the corner of his eyes with his glowing eyes.

"Don't get too close to me. Also, right now is really not the time to talk. Kingstar, Francesca, Queenstar. I want the three of you to send everyone back and get some rest. I will handle Shazjae on my own for the next few hours. I'm not sure for how long I can handle them until I passed out, but I want you all to be ready when that time comes. I'm counting the three of you."

Kingstar looked at Queenstar and Francesca. The three of them nodded with understanding. Kingstar raised his hand and pointed at the south gate.

"Everyone, we will fall back for now! We will gather here again in the morning. I need all of your participation and every single one of you could make a big difference. We will hold this thing down for the next 2 days in this place and spot!"

Queenstar and Francesca nodded.

"Everyone dismissed and get some rest!"

Trevor looked at Aspen.

"How is Ivonna's situation?"

Aspen turned his body and looked at Ivonna.

"She can't be resurrected and we can't touch her body as well as if something is preventing us from touching her body."

Trevor nodded.

"It's fine, it's because she used a skill that sacrificing her life for the lives of others. It will take at least 6 hours until she can be resurrected or can respawn. You can leave now and get some rest as well. I will take care of her until she's awake."

Aspen nodded.

"Alright. Good luck Trevor. I will be back with everyone from the factionless players."

Trevor nodded and then Aspen left hurriedly.

Ivonna was in spectator mode and looked at Trevor beside her. Trevor looked at Shazjae and immediately rode the wolf and they both flew above Shazjae's head and dove down to deal some damage to him. Both of them kept attacking Shazjae even though their damages were not that huge since Shazjae's DEF is too much for every player at the moment. But for some reason, some of Trevor's attacks dealt heavy damage that surprised Ivonna. It was all thanks to Ezira's Sickle that deal fixed damage with a 30% chance.

Ivonna watched Shazjae struggled to stand properly since almost half of his body was buried under the ground because of that fall. Trevor looked like he was playing around with Shazjae from Ivonna's perspective, but she knew that Trevor was actually trying so hard to keep him in there.

Ivonna looked around and there was nobody else around the city because all of them already left the city to get some rest. Ivonna was the only one who watched that amazing battle between a man versus an extraterrestrial monster. But then Trevor screamed so loud while swung his sickle to Shazjae's index finger.

*Crack!*

Ivonna watched a gigantic finger falling into the ground and as soon as it hit the ground, Ivonna approached it and saw how gigantic the finger was. Shazjae's finger is as big as 3 busses combined, and that was just the first joint of Shazjae's index finger. At that moment, she knew how big Shazjae was and knew she and the other players wouldn't be able to do what Trevor did even if they tried.

Trevor slowly but surely tried to cut off each joint of Shazjae's finger by using his chained sickle. Trevor used so many different types of scythes and sickles he has and all of them got destroyed in less than 5 minutes. Ivonna finally knew why Grisell made so many scythes and sickles for the last few weeks, it was all so Trevor could use it and he had prepared everything for this moment.

Ivonna was floating watching everything while thought about Trevor. Ivonna was curious why Trevor didn't tell her or anyone about this invasion, or about the thing that they're going to encounter, and so on. If only Trevor told her or anyone about this, they could prepare more and everything would be easier. Ivonna then realized that everything he did to keep it a secret is all because he wanted her and every player to be fascinated, shocked, thrilled, or even scared of what they're about to face. He only gave them the information that they need to know and that alone was enough for them to prepare, and she was grateful for that.

(6 hours later.)

The sun is already up, and Ivonna respawned fully refreshed. She ran toward Trevor that close enough for him to be able to hear her voice.

"Trevor!"

Trevor looked down and smiled.

"Welcome back, Ivonna."

Ivonna nodded.

"Are you still good up there? What about the exhausted debuff on you?"

Trevor nodded.

"I'm still fine right now. I think I still can handle him for the next two hours. How about you? Are you alright down there? I'm sorry to say this, but my hands are full at the moment. Can you tell everyone to get prepared? I want them to be in the position soon."

Ivonna nodded.

"I understand. Please be safe until we all arrived here. Good luck!"

Trevor nodded and kept flying around with the wolf while Ivonna left the city.

(2 hours later.)

Ivonna came back with everyone. They all watched Trevor kept on attacking Shazjae's hand and head. When they looked at Shazjae's fingers on the ground, they were all shocked to see how big those things are. Trevor smiled when everyone has finally gathered.

Kingstar shouted at Trevor.

"Trevor! Everyone is ready! You can leave him with us now!"

Trevor looked around and so many players were running on top of the walls and so many players already on the towers operating the ballistae and catapults. He then jumped off from the wolf and the wolf kept on distracting Shazjae by releasing cold mist around him that deals damage over time.

Trevor approached Kingstar and nodded.

"Good luck. I leave him to all of you now. Please be careful."

Kingstar nodded and as soon as Trevor walked past him, he fell to the ground and passed out. Everyone was surprised when he fell to the ground. Trevor passed out because he got so exhausted that the system forced him to fall asleep. The wolf looked at Trevor and it immediately dove down and checked on him. Ivonna grabbed Trevor's body and dragged him to the back.

The wolf stood next to Trevor. Ivonna and Chelsea were staring at it for quite a while. But then they realized that the wolf is Trevor's companion, and he already evolved him to the first stage. Their Amruchis were gathering around Trevor's Amruchi as if they were playing with it.

Kingstar raised his hand.

"FIRE!"

Bolts and boulders bombarded Shazjae's body and head. Shazjae covered his head with his right hand, but some of his fingers were cut off thanks to Trevor's hard work. A few bolts hit Shazjae's eyes and face, he growled and it pissed him off. He went on a rampage and swung his arm around to make a cloud of dust to cover him.

The ground trembled and a silhouette of Shazjae raised slowly. Everyone knew that he's really pissed now. Leo and the others kept on shooting him while kept on guard because they won't know if a boulder is coming towards them or not. Kingstar then ordered the first team to enter the battlefield that is led by Diamond and Lothair so Shazjae won't target the players on the walls and towers.

Kingstar looked around.

"Where is Grisell? Does anyone see Grisell?"

A player pointed at the back, and Grisell was talking with Francesca and the others. Kingstar then approached her hurriedly.

"Grisell."

Grisell turned her head.

"Yes?"

Kingstar nodded while looked at her so seriously.

"I need you to make those things again. Can you do it?"

Grisell hummed while tapped her lips, and then she nodded.

"I can, but it will take a while to make those. How much do we need?"

Kingstar looked at all of them.

"I need as many as you can. Hundreds or even thousands if you can."

Kingstar looked at Grisell while raised his eyebrows.

"Can you do it?"

Grisell smirked.

"That won't be a problem. I will prepare the team for gathering the requirements now."

Kingstar nodded.

"That's wonderful. We are going to hold him down with everything we have right now. We will use those things again for tomorrow."

[2 days, 17 hours, 32 minutes until the invasion begins.]
