Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 588 Generous Rewards

"His strength seems to have increased significantly, much stronger than before." Gao Song noticed something was wrong with the other party.

Previously, Gao Song was confident that if the little rabbit wasn't a weakness, he would have a good chance of defeating this person if he played freely in the rain.

However, at this moment, sensing the sudden increase in the opponent's aura after being resurrected, it is clear that after being "resurrected," the opponent has become somewhat unfathomable.

"Mm." Doris nodded.

Drop drop!
The Seed of Light detector in Shen Baitong's clothes also made a sound to Doris. He took out the device and crushed it.

Doris took a step forward and started moving, unleashing a torrent of sharp noises that seemed like tangible spikes falling towards her.

"Qiqi!" Shen Baitong called out. The gothic woman didn't dare to be negligent. After the recent change, her neck had become much longer. With a wriggling motion of her long neck, she spewed out a fierce sonic wave from her mouth.

Layers of sound waves tried to block out Doris's noise, but could only barely delay it, and were soon pierced by the noise.

Even so, it was enough. Shen Baitong met the noise head-on, and as his fists collided, a blackish-gray solid flame ignited, which spread out and spiraled to gather at his arms before striking forward.

Boom!

Doris's noise was immediately shattered, and Shen Baitong moved as if he were in an empty place!
Gao Song unleashed his Light Seed with all his might, turning raindrops into miniature missiles that fell as usual, but exploded the moment they touched Shen Baitong, the tiny water droplets spreading out like shrapnel.

But Gao Song quickly opened his eyes wide.

Whoosh whoosh!
Shen Baitong actually brushed aside most of the raindrops that were about to fall on her, and was even able to quickly extricate herself before the raindrops hit her and exploded!
"Hahahaha!"

Ding!
Doris and Shen Baitong clashed instantly, their noisy rapiers and the dark gray flames on Shen Baitong's fists rubbing against each other fiercely.

Shen Baitong pushed Doris away with one punch and then struck with both fists. Doris's eyes flashed, and she drew a circle with her rapier in front of her, instantly deflecting Shen Baitong's fist and killing him with a single blow to the throat.

The rapier pierced Shen Baitong's neck, then cut through the noise, severing Shen Baitong's head once more: "Gao Song."

Gao Song focused his attention and reached out to grab, the raindrops aiming at Shen Baitong's head in mid-air, shattering it.

"Now that's the end of it..." Before he could finish speaking, Shen Baitong's headless body in front of Doris didn't stop moving. He swung his elbow at Doris at close range, but Doris managed to parry it with her hand raised.

Gao Song: "Are you not going to act at all this time?"

Doris leaped up to dodge Shen Baitong's sweeping leg kick, which ripped open a large section of the street, leaving a deep ditch.

As Doris, mid-air, stomped on Shen Baitong with both legs and kicked him away, the noise returned, riddling his body with holes.

After landing and observing for a moment, she frowned: "Not yet..."

The dark gray flames on its body had not yet died down, and its injuries were regenerating at a rapid pace, along with the regrowing of a new head.

"Take him to a deserted mountain. Gao Song, you deal with the people here." Seeing this, Doris knew that ordinary methods probably wouldn't work.

The gothic woman's abilities weren't entirely without impact; they at least affected Doris's normal musical performance to some extent. Otherwise, facing an opponent with an immortal body, a requiem would have been exactly what she needed to eliminate them.

Using the most direct destructive force, explosive noise, is currently confirmed to be insufficient to kill it. However, due to the fact that the battle takes place in a residential area on the street, she cannot use it indiscriminately.

Gao Song nodded in response and said, "Just now, not only did his strength expand as if some kind of limiter had been unlocked, but his speed, reaction speed, and other abilities also improved significantly. Most importantly, his original fighting techniques were refined in an instant. It was as if he had an epiphany after dying once... But this kind of change did not happen this time."

"It only happened after the first death..." Doris said.

[Successfully completed the "First Time Meeting a Top Celebrity" challenge.]

[Check-in Reward: You will be exempt from all interference at the spiritual and mental level.]

Shen Baitong was confident of winning, but unexpectedly, she triggered another check-in. Suddenly, she felt her mind, which had been somewhat dizzy from the noise, become much clearer.

Of course, he also understood the most important benefit of this: he was no longer afraid that Doris's normal musical performance would kill him!
"Hahaha! Doris! As expected of someone who can become a superstar even with the Seed of Light! The two consecutive check-in rewards you brought are so generous! I really have to thank you!" Shen Baitong directly extended his hand to express his heartfelt gratitude.

"If you're going to thank me, you might as well just die already," Doris muttered irritably.

"Show us anything else interesting!"

He had barely finished speaking when he saw Doris suddenly rush forward.

Before he could react, the world spun around him, and he felt himself rise into the sky and then plummet down, crashing into a desolate wilderness.

He rolled on the mountainside and stood up, about to look up to find Doris's whereabouts, when his vision was suddenly filled by a huge ring of sound tracks surrounding him.

The ring expanded diagonally around Doris, and the sound track pulsated violently as Doris's rapier guided it, before slashing down with a sudden force.

The mountain, deep on the edge of Stanley Street, is cut off at an angle, along with the surrounding mountain range. The cut surface is not smooth, but rather irregular, jagged and wavy.

Even the heavy rain stopped instantly, until the sound of rain resumed and the rain started falling again.

but……

boom!
As the smoke and dust dissipated, Shen Baitong, whose body was battered but rapidly recovering, charged straight at Doris.

The sounds of collision echoed in the gloomy sky, and blackish-gray flashes exploded one after another. Shen Baitong launched a series of fierce attacks, having already adapted to Doris's swordsmanship.

[Mind's Eye: The ability to see without eyes, to be aware of and learn from the actions of others within its perception range.]

[Agility: In combat where concentration is paramount, speed and reaction time increase rapidly the longer the battle lasts.]

These are all rewards he received for checking in in the past.

In addition to these, he also possessed many powerful enhancements, all accumulated over the past few months! At this moment, he was completely fearless!

"That's truly amazing. How much have you sacrificed for this power? The accumulated training day after day, and the Pure White Lighthouse's meticulous cultivation of your Seed of Light? And I only need to see, touch, and at most do a few small things to possess it all! The power of the system is even greater than that of the Academy and the Lighthouse!"

He had barely finished speaking when Doris severed one of his arms with a single sword stroke, and raised her rapier high once more. The soundtrack ring re-formed.

At worst, try again.

Shen Baitong was once again swept up by the sound track ring, and the surrounding terrain was also repaired again.

"It's no use!" Shen Baitong finished regenerating his body and waved away the smoke. "I'm already..."

dong dong...

His smile froze, and he suddenly staggered.

What's going on? Why do I feel a sense of emptiness in my body?

Noticing his discomfort, Doris understood: "You're not Mr. Music, how can you regenerate flesh and blood indefinitely? Even that flesh and blood illusion on Jiangwen Street had almost infinite life force only because it plundered enough life flesh and blood from people. And you? Did that system even solve that for you?"

Shen Baitong gritted her teeth and looked at Doris.

“Looks like I was right. Your regeneration is amazing, it even makes you have no weaknesses. But how many times can you regenerate?” Doris looked down at him.

Without replenishment of energy, or rather, if the replenishment of energy cannot keep up with the consumption, then it is only natural that regeneration will cease.

The description of the Super Regenerative Physique only mentions that it greatly enhances his recovery ability, but it doesn't say that he "won't die."

"you……"

The ring reappears.

Shen Baitong took a step back. Realizing that his regenerative abilities weren't unfounded and limitless, he was forced to confront a problem he had overlooked in his moment of complacency—

Why is it that Doris can use such terrifying moves that can cut through mountains at will without even breaking a sweat?
His regenerative ability is limited, but is your power limitless?!
System! Quickly give me her power! Infinite power!!

I'll die here if this continues! You've been supporting me so diligently, even though I know you have ulterior motives. Even if you're going to fatten me up and kill me, you can't let me die here!
Swish!
The terrain was eroded once again, this time creating a huge valley, where groundwater gushed to the surface and converged into a river.

Shen Baitong collapsed to her knees, her breathing rapid. The main part of her body had barely finished regenerating, but it became extremely difficult at the extremities.

Run! He's already completed the mission from the Pure White Society, so there's no reason for him to drag things out with Doris! The fact that Doris is a Seed of Light was already uploaded when the instrument detected it, and he can get the Pure White Society's protection when he gets back!

I refuse to believe it. Could Doris possibly use such a powerful move again?

The fourth audio track's rings pulsated menacingly and spun down!
The mountain shook again and again, and could no longer be called "big".

Doris strolled slowly toward Shen Baitong, whose limbs could not regenerate and who could only crawl on the ground.

"Next, if we rip your head off, can you regenerate?"

"no, do not want……"

"I told you, if you want to thank me, then hurry up and die." Doris stomped on the other person's head, pressing the other person's face into the ground with her high-heeled boots, and looked at Shen Baitong with contempt, as if she were trash.

[Successfully completed the "First Time Being Trampled by a High-Quality Woman" challenge.]

Is it even possible to skip checking in at a time like this?!
[Check-in Reward: Your attractiveness to the opposite sex has increased!]

Could it be that?
Pfft!

A sword pierced Shen Baitong's neck, pinning him to the ground.

Isn't this completely useless?!
"Little Lamb! I have something to remind you. Be careful lately... Hmm? What are you doing?" Zheng Fan jumped out with a grin, but after a moment's thought, he realized that the situation was not so simple.

"Huh? Mr. Music!?"

Although Shen Baitong's head was being stepped on, preventing him from seeing the outside world and making it impossible for him to maintain his mental focus, it wasn't hard to tell that... Doris's voice, which suddenly became coquettish and lively after seeing this "music gentleman," was completely different from the voice she had used when she told him to die.

Oh shit!

I knew these glamorous celebrities had long been betrayed and kicked behind the scenes! Doris is no exception!
But this is actually an opportunity, you foolish woman!
Her attention was diverted, while Shen Baitong struggled to regenerate her legs and now had a chance to run away!
It's now!

boom!
Shen Baitong exerted force suddenly, pushing Doris's foot away with his head, while simultaneously using his mental perception to determine the direction and prepare to escape!

But... the moment his mind's eye opened, he didn't run away, but stood there in terror.

It is not visible to the naked eye.

In my heart and in my eyes, I see it all clearly.

Those twin eyes, born in his heart and bestowed with the supreme gift of the system, can cut through countless fogs and see directly into the truth and essence of things.

[First sighting check-in successful.]

[Check-in reward: &@#￥……]

The notification tone was erratic for a moment, but it was restored after a brief adjustment and then broadcast again.

[Check-in Reward: Liberation.]

Shen Baitong paid no attention to any of this, because he could neither see nor hear anything anymore.

Just before he was about to be touched and swept away by the tentacles of what was "present" before him, the system he trusted so much did indeed bestow upon him far more generous rewards than ever before.

He was killed instantly in front of that thing.
