This time, Gu Tu only stayed in the Otherworld for less than 12 hours, so he only fainted for more than an hour in the real world. He was unconscious, but at that time, he had no signs of life. However, because he had a history of " reanimation," the hospital was not in a hurry to determine his death. Instead, they patiently waited for him to wake up.
"You're really a treasure in the human medical field.”The attending doctor held his hand and accidentally said something.
Unfortunately, he knew very well that no matter how much they studied, it was impossible for them to discover the principle of his resurrection. Using science to explain magic was not scientific.
However, Gu Tu actually hoped that they would be able to come up with a result. He was also curious about the principle of his own life and death. He felt as if there was a power controlling his fate, guiding him in a certain direction. It was his personal choice to rebel against the Rustan Empire, but it seemed to be a script that someone had already arranged. He did not want to become someone else's puppet, so he did some research.
He called Cheng Wuji because she seemed to be the person closest to the truth. Unfortunately, she could not get through. In fact, he had never been able to get through to Cheng Wuji. If she wanted to find him, she would naturally appear in front of him. If she did not miss him, he would not be able to contact her no matter what.
One day, he gathered the company's senior executives.
"We want to open up a new business.”he announced.
"What business?" The executives led by Zhang Mingshi asked fearfully.
" Supernatural investigation." Gu Tu said. "We need to collect all the events and phenomena that can't be explained by science around the world and then verify their authenticity. Be it ghost stories, superpowers, or weird stuff, the weirder the better.”
"Then the target users of this service are…?”Zhang Mingshi asked timidly. "A paranormal enthusiast?"
"The target user of this service is me.”Gu Tu said. "I want to understand the nature of the world through these strange events.”
"Then the profit model of this business is…?”Zhang Mingshi asked again.
"This business doesn't need to be profitable. I'll think of a way to get investment.”Gu Tu said.
"Will anyone invest in a business that isn't profitable…"
"Don't think of investors as being so materialistic.”Gu Tu said righteously. "There are always people in this world who are willing to pay money to explore the truth.”
This time, Gu Tu went to a poor country where no birds could lay eggs and robbed the pirates active on the coastline of that country. Then, he set up a fund in a neighboring country and invested the money in his company to fund his " supernatural investigation business."
Although he had solved the funding problem, the business did not go smoothly. All paranormal incidents would be discovered at the end of the investigation. They were all deliberately spread rumors. There were a few cases of " resurrection " that had aroused Gu Tu's interest, but the investigation results showed that they were all poor charlatans 'performances.
"By the way, it's said that a big country is secretly conducting alien research. I wonder if you're interested in this?”The person in charge of the supernatural business asked Gu Tu.
"This rumor has been circulating for quite a long time.”Gu Tu had always felt that it was some kind of conspiracy theory.
"Yes, but because the research site may be a secret military base in the country, no one can verify the authenticity of the rumors…"
This reminded him. Perhaps he could personally go to the so-called secret base and see if the rumors of aliens were true. With his level of engraving, breaking into the military base shouldn't be too much of a problem.
Once he was in the mood, no one could stop him. He immediately bought a ticket to the country.
Originally, his schedule and accommodation had been arranged. However, when he was waiting at the airport, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood at the boarding gate. Once he closed his eyes, he would die.
Then, when his eyes opened, he was alive again.
He had once again transmigrated to Omni Synes High School's Gu Kexin.
During this transmigration, he discovered a major difference between Apostle Goodwin and Student Gu Kexin.
In essence, Goodwin was a summoned creature, so once the summoning time was up, he would disappear from the Otherworld.
But Gu Kexin was a living person. During the time Gu Tu returned to the real world, Gu Kexin would not disappear and would continue to live in the Otherworld.
This raised two terrifying questions:
Firstly, during the time when Gu Tu's consciousness was absent,'Gu Kexin' was moving around on his own, living a normal life and attending classes. Although Gu Tu didn't have any memories of Gu Kexin's background, he had memories of this period of time.
Secondly, Gu Kexin's personality was completely different from Gu Tu's. To put it simply,'Gu Kexin' had a cowardly personality, and he couldn't use the magic of 'Innate Source of Art'. When Macarnaud came to find trouble with him, he immediately admitted his mistake and obediently accepted the school's punishment. He even gave Macarnaud a bunch of gifts and said a bunch of flattering words. He was just short of kneeling and begging for mercy.
As a result," Gu Kexin " suddenly became the laughing stock of the entire class, and Macardone's bullying of him became even worse.
This " Gu Kexin " was rather unmotivated. He didn't listen to the class properly and even sold all the elementary and advanced teaching materials that Gu Tu had bought as scrap. In the end, even after a few months of lessons, he still could not use a single spell. He was bullied by Macarnaud every day, and the suspicion of " cheating in the last test " was confirmed.
Towards this original "Gu Kexin", the heart of the transmigrator Gu Kexin almost collapsed.
Being humiliated was a small matter, but not being able to learn magic was a big matter. According to the previous situation, he didn't travel for too long every time he transmigrated, so he couldn't learn anything. As for the original Gu Kexin, his talent was dull and he was just waiting for death. He couldn't give him any help at all.
So, as soon as he transmigrated back, he angrily went to look for Rosemary.
"Teacher Roth, is there any way to speed up magic?”he asked. "It's the kind that can improve one's spellcasting skills in a day. It's okay to be a little bitter and tired."
"If there was a quick way to learn magic, why would we need to spend decades learning it?”Rosemary asked.
Eh? Did everyone in this world need decades to learn? If that's the case, wouldn't I be crippled if I only transmigrated once every few weeks?
"Then, Mr. Ross, is there any way to force yourself to study hard?”he asked. "You know me. I'm a motivated person, but sometimes I'm dominated by laziness. Do you have any spells that can take advantage of my strong 'motivation' to give myself a blow so that I can study properly when I'm dominated by laziness?”
"If there was such a spell, wouldn't we have let the students use it long ago?”Rosemary said with a smile.
…That was true. He really wanted to transmigrate to another person.
"However, if there is such a spell, it should be a soul-type spell, right?”said Rosemary. "You can ask Teacher Natain.”
"I understand, thank you. Then, where would Teacher Natain usually be?”
"That's hard to say. She's a person who comes and goes like the wind. If she had to say where she went more often, it would probably be the 'pothole'.”
The " pit " was a mysterious cave near the university. It was said that the cave was unfathomable and no one had ever reached its end. Moreover, the paths in the cave were complicated and no different from a maze. Nine out of ten people would get lost if they went in. Some people even said that the path in the cave would change on its own, so it was useless to draw a map.
In this cave, people would occasionally find some rare magic materials, and sometimes they would encounter strange beasts or strange phenomena that were of great research value. Therefore, this cave was a treasure for magic researchers. Omni Synes High School chose this place because it was convenient to enter the " pit " to obtain materials.
"Can I go to the pit?" Gu Kexin asked. According to the rules, students were not allowed to enter the " pit " alone.
"Of course not." said Rosemary. "But you can wait for her at the cave entrance.”
"Alright."
Since he wouldn't be able to learn anything from a day of class, Gu Kexin decided to skip today's class and focus on finding Natain. However, he still went to Macarnaud's class and used the Mark of the Stars in front of the entire class. He used Starlight to beat Macarnaud into a dog's head.
"I tolerated you a while ago just to see how arrogant you can be.”he said to Macarnaud. "In the end, you even took advantage of me? Let me tell you, I have a bad temper. It's best not to provoke me. If you provoke me, even if I didn't hit you at that time, I would still find time to hit you later.”
Then, he went to the " pit."
There were guards in front of the " pit " to prevent naughty students from sneaking in.
"Teacher, I want to ask, do you know if Teacher Natain has ever entered the 'pothole'?”he asked the security guard.
"Teacher Natain? He did go in, probably two hours ago?”the security guard said.
Gu Kexin waited at the entrance of the pit for an hour, but Natain still did not appear.
His time was very precious, and it was not a good idea to keep waiting. He decided to sneak into the " pit." He was a man who had overturned the empire with his own strength. How could this broken pit trap him?
He first pretended to leave, then strengthened his physical ability with the Imprint of the Soul, and sneaked into the " hole " while the security guard was distracted. He then used the Seal of the Soul to mark the entrance of the cave so that he wouldn't be unable to find the way in.
He thought that he would see all kinds of strange things in the " pit ", but there were none.
Other than black stones, there were only black stones in the " pit." The journey was rather boring. After an hour of fruitless searching for Natain, he found himself lost.
He had clearly left a mark at the entrance of the cave, but that mark had inexplicably broken.
Could it be that he had been teleported to another dimension?
He was done for.
If this transmigration ended just like that, the dull original 'Gu Kexin' would definitely die in the 'pothole'.
Suddenly, a muffled voice sounded behind him.
"…You're here?"
He turned around and saw a hunchbacked old man. The man's robe was covered in blood, and in his hand was a broken limb that was bleeding.
"Teacher…Trien?"
