Inside the stone house.
In the presence of onlookers.
Kane carefully examined the upgraded silver metal skill plate in his hand.
[Name: Demigod Incarnation - Radiant Balance]
[Category: Active Skills]
[Color: Silver]
[Explanation: After using this skill, you will incarnate as the offspring of a deity, gaining the same attribute abilities and constitution boost as your divine parent. You can freely convert all your attacks and attributes into Holy Light Damage, allowing you to enter a temporary Holy Light Energy Body state. During the skill period, your appearance will change and continuously consume magic power.
During skill use, you must maintain alignment with your righteous faction; if you fall into the evil faction, the skill becomes unusable. Forced usage will backfire.]
[Introduction: In certain worlds, the earliest extraordinary beings are called gods. Their offspring, born from intelligent races, are called demigods, inheriting many abilities from their divine parents.
Radiant Balance is indeed such a deity, responsible for bringing justice, fairness, and hopeful light to the world.]
From the introduction, this skill becomes extremely powerful, possibly matching the [Dragon Bloodline], transitioning from a divine being to a demigod, representing stronger attributes.
However, the introduction and explanation are unexpectedly long, providing a lot of information.
It seems that this skill has much more potential than imagined; it should not be underestimated.
The skill switch time is about to end; once it does, Kane will directly place this skill into his skill grid.
With the consumption of magic power.
Kane transformed from within into a shimmering radiant white-gold little being, even his attire changed to resemble an energy body.
The halo behind his head transformed into a giant light wheel floating behind Kane.
Kane just hovered silently in mid-air.
Magic power rapidly drained from his body.
Feeling the skill's consumption, Kane knows this skill is no longer his usual skill.
The magic power within him isn't enough to sustain it for 10 minutes.
But the boost effect is overwhelmingly strong, even granting Kane the freedom to fly in the air.
The moment of demigod transformation brought an excessive power surge, making Kane feel invincible in the world, a sense of power intoxication.
The mighty power even made Kane feel omnipotent.
Kane knows this is just an illusion brought by sudden strength; after calming down a bit, such thoughts quietly fade away.
As the consumption of magic power stops, Kane returns from the demigod state.
At this time, Kreya and others gathered around.
"This skill is extremely strong," Longbei spoke bluntly.
Kreya added with some astonishment, "When you entered that state just now, I felt a suffocating pressure, which is lethal in battle."
Lilulu and Meizike also shared their feelings just now.
This state even affected Lilulu.
Only now did Kane realize his skill had additional special effects.
It seems this skill is indeed very intense, albeit with significant consumption.
The gains from this period have finally been fully absorbed now.
Looking outside at this moment, dawn has arrived from the night.
The gathering time is approaching.
...
In the Black Stone Fortress, various noises can be heard from all sides, soldiers bustling within the fortress.
Various machinery and military supplies have been loaded onto racks and secured.
These supply vehicles placed at the back door of the fortress are ready to depart immediately.
All soldiers at the fortress gate have already assembled.
The commanders of the other three fortresses are below, counting soldiers who will support them.
At the gate, Kane and others are conversing here.
At this time, Meizike is continually taking out various potions from his space equipment, distributing them among comrades, replenishing their dwindling stock.
Among them, red, blue, and yellow potions are consumed the most.
These three potions are nearly used in every battle.
Then Meizike took out his new item.
He took out more than a dozen bottles of inky green potion from the space equipment and distributed them evenly among Kane and the others.
"Evil Fang, designed against skin-stripping monsters and most demons, weakens defense, slows strength, poisons them, be careful of the wide range of effect."
This is Meizike's research on these demons and skin-stripping monsters, creating toxins targeting them.
Originally intending to make explosive potions, but most demons have considerable resistance to fire, so this idea was abandoned.
The Holy Light attribute, although it has substantial damage to these evil creatures, their outer skin has special resistance to the Holy Light attribute.
So, ultimately, only toxins can be used.
Then each person was given an additional Potion of the Crown of Valor, though Kane and others had never used it, Meizike still prepared one more bottle for everyone.
Finally, they were supplemented with the nearly depleted Rapid Freeze Potion.
This thing has shown significant efficacy against demons recently, excellent control effects on demons.
Once everyone is ready, they follow Kane's allocation sequence from yesterday and head to the teams that need them.
Kane remained in place, then climbed the city wall on the gate.
Waving to his teammates who had already followed the team far away.
Magic power injected into the ruby lapel pin on his collar.
"Hey, can you hear me?"
"I can hear you." ×4
Confirmed that the communications equipment on him was also working fine.
"Then keep in touch, remember to report any emergencies on the channel."
After instructing everyone, Kane began observing the fortress and the terrain where the demons were about to attack.
The fortress walls and watchtowers.
Various city defense devices were set up here, since many things couldn't be taken away, better to use everything now without worrying about the demons getting them.
If broken, they are broken; if wasted, it's alright as they can't be taken away, better to use them to eliminate a few more demons.
Various trap pits in front of the fortress were being dug intensively.
Although these trap pits can't do much harm to demons, they can reduce the number of their minion cannon fodder.
And those engineering soldiers inside the fortress, performing documentation and maintenance of various devices, had long retreated ahead with some of the remaining military supplies.
Based on this morning's intelligence.
Most of the villagers at the second line of defense and some important supplies have been evacuated.
Expected to reach the rear of the first line of defense by tomorrow morning.
Thus they need to hold on until the next morning.
Before that, they need to firmly fix the demons within a range they can handle, not allowing them to wreak havoc everywhere.
First, defend at the fortress; when the demons are about to breach the fortress, they retreat.
If demons try to pass them to wreak havoc backstage, they will actively attack to firmly contain the demons.
Then retreat slowly like this, ultimately gathering together.
Now just wait for nightfall.
