That was indeed not an ordinary sun. It was a scorching sun evolved from the body of a phoenix and the power of the world. General Has woken up in Wu Yue's world. When he looked at the world in front of him, memories of his past life emerged in his mind. He was surrounded by flames, his eyes were full of red, and his body was full of high temperature.

He could even smell the burning smell coming from his body, but there was always a voice in his heart telling him to hold on. Then, relying on his memory and vague perception, he threw the sword in his hand with force, and heard the last sound of the sword piercing through flesh and blood, puff!

With that sound, the memories ended, and General Haas looked at the world in front of him.

At this time, Wu Yue's world was far from what it was at the beginning. In addition to the scorching sun hanging high in the sky, many plants began to grow in Wu Yue's world. Perhaps it was because at the beginning of creation, Wu Yue invested part of the power of the Well of Life into the world. Although there were no animals in Wu Yue's world, it was not lacking in the breath of life.

These plants are basically distributed in all areas of the land, and the world also instinctively absorbs some of the power of the original force of life. In a sense, these life forces promote the birth of these lives in the world.

General Hass did not have to wait long. Not long after he woke up, Wu Yue came to General Hass in an instant through the power of the world. After seeing Wu Yue, General Hass immediately recognized the wizard who burned him to death, which did not make him panic.

Because he knew that since he was already dead, he would not be able to resist the wizard who could summon him back from the kingdom of the dead. On the contrary, General Has was calmly analyzing Wu Yue's thoughts and his purpose of resurrecting himself. After a moment, this analysis had an answer.

"So, Master, you saved me from hell. What was your purpose? Don't tell me it was just a sudden burst of kindness."

Wu Yue did not react much to General Hass's words, or he had expected this from the beginning. General Hass would not easily obey his orders. Without saying a word, he directly mobilized the power of the world. He took General Hass's hand and came to the outside of the world with him, near the troll settlement in Alterac City.

General Hass probably didn't expect Wu Yue to be so direct. He took him away from the original place without even saying a word to him. The rapid journey made General Hass's body feel a little uncomfortable after his rebirth, but it didn't take long for General Hass to adjust his condition.

But the scene before him after he came to his senses shocked General Hass greatly. He saw that in Alterac, the valley defended by demons, there were piles of corpses made up of many civilians. None of their bodies were intact. The burns, broken wounds and various scars on their bodies all reflected the torture they had suffered in their previous lives.

These corpses formed a line of defense to intercept the trolls, but their main function was not just that. King Aiden knew that it was a human "mage" who commanded the trolls to attack the city of Alterac, and this information was also passed on to the demons. Perhaps Aiden would care about the bodies of these civilians being treated so cruelly after their death, but the demons obviously did not care about it.

They wanted to cause some panic in Wu Yue, but to be honest, Wu Yue did not feel much about these piles of corpses. He had seen tens of thousands of fishmen dying continuously, and the number of humans in front of him was just a drop in the bucket. However, General Hass did not have the same feeling.

As a general of Alterac and a human being, he could not accept that such a tragedy had happened in the land he had defended with all his might. He even saw several very familiar faces among the corpses. Many of the heads belonged to soldiers he had trained personally.

Although General Hass was grief-stricken, he did not forget one thing. He wanted to know why the city of Alterac had become like this. Thinking of this, he turned and looked at Wu Yue. He felt that Wu Yue should not be the culprit of all this. The trolls who had fought with him were now fighting with the demons who were slaughtering civilians.

In a war-torn land, General Haas gazed solemnly at the scene before him—the bodies of civilians littered the ground. His voice tinged with grief and indignation, he asked Wu Yue, "Who massacred these civilians?"

Wu Yue stared at the corpses with a dull look in his eyes, and replied unhurriedly, "It's your king, a loyal knight." His voice was calm, but full of power, constantly striking General Hass's heart.

General Haas's face was filled with shock and disbelief. He could not accept this answer, as he had always been full of respect and loyalty to his king.

Wu Yue's expression remained unchanged by General Haas. He continued, "Your king summoned these demons to resist me."

General Haas was torn between inner struggles and began to question his loyalty and everything he had done. The tragic scene before him made him feel painful and confused about the king's behavior.

Wu Yue looked at General Haas and said helplessly, "In the beginning, I started this war because of your offense against me, but perhaps we were all wrong from the beginning."

General Haas stared silently at the corpses scattered on the ground, his heart filled with contradictions and pain. He realized that the line between loyalty and justice became blurred at this moment.

"How about joining me?" General Has suddenly raised his head and looked at Wu Yue with an incredulous look. The man who attacked the kingdom wanted a general of the kingdom to join the invader's camp.

"I will ensure that the civilians of Alterac will live safely in their territory."

Wu Yue looked at General Haas confidently, his words revealing his seriousness. General Haas stared at Wu Yue, thinking to himself. He clearly understood that this man was the key to all this, but the assurances he offered gave him hope.

Wu Yue's expression was serious and sincere, as if his promise had been carefully considered. He straightened his body, his hands slightly spread out, revealing confidence in his abilities. General Haas's gaze lingered on Wu Yue for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons of this proposal.

The atmosphere was tense and quiet, with only the gentle breeze and snowflakes ruffling through the crowd's hair, adding a touch of white to the scene. General Haas's gaze grew grave, as he pondered Wu Yue's words and the safety of the civilians. Finally, he spoke slowly, his voice tinged with thought. "Can you keep your promise?" Wu Yue replied without hesitation. "I guarantee it on my honor. If you trust me, I will do my utmost to protect the civilians."

General Haas nodded, seemingly satisfied with Wu Yue's response. A flicker of determination flashed in his eyes. "Okay, I'll consider your proposal. But you must understand that if you break your promise, I will do everything in my power to resist you." Wu Yue nodded slightly. "I understand your concerns, and I will prove my sincerity with my actions."

With General Haas's response, the tense atmosphere eased slightly. Wu Yue's determination and commitment seemed to offer a glimmer of hope for the situation in Alterac, and General Haas decided to give him a chance, hoping he could truly fulfill his promise to protect civilians. Their gazes met, as if they had reached a tacit understanding.

Wu Yue will fulfill his promise. But he knows that achieving this goal is not easy. The civilians in the demonic territory are beyond his control. He needs a special helper - help from within the enemy.

The Dawn Guard, this organization, became an opportunity in his eyes. Wu Yue had heard of their deeds in his previous life and admired the organization from the bottom of his heart. Now, General Haas would temporarily stand by his side, without Wu Yue resorting to forceful control. Then, General Haas might be able to help Wu Yue contact these guards awaiting the dawn, thus giving him a greater chance of repelling the demon.
