Five days later, the investigation team that Ilsa mentioned finally arrived.

On the afternoon of the day they arrived in Langari, two members of the investigation team found Gu Shi, hoping that he could cooperate with the investigation team's mission and answer some questions.

Gu Shi naturally agreed, and said everything he needed to say in the question and answer session.

He also mentioned the previous incident with Blair to these two people, but because there was no evidence, Gu Shi only speculated that there might be some connection between him and the devil.

However, they didn't seem to care much and instead comforted Gu Shi by saying that the devil was dead and naturally posed no threat to those who had signed a contract with him.

During the conversation, Gu Shi could sense that the two people sent by the investigation team were not very harmonious.

Looking at the knight from the Holy See of Light and an imperial noble picking on each other, Gu Shi, who had just finished chatting with Isidore not long ago, always felt a little disappointed.

The enemy is almost at your doorstep, and you are still fighting among yourselves.

Gu Shi was not clear about the conflict between the Holy See of Light and the Igrit Empire. According to his shallow understanding of this world, the two major forces should be quite friendly with each other. The Church of Light was even the state religion of the Igrit Empire.

What's more, this is a major matter concerning the lives of people in the city. There is no problem that can't be put off and solved later.

However, he did not express these thoughts out loud. It was fine to just think about it in his mind. As a civilian, if he casually commented on these two major forces, he might be accused of disrespect and punished.

Although he had noticed it a long time ago, Gu Shi still felt a little uncomfortable with the situation where ordinary people's lives were not taken seriously.

However, the arrival of the investigation team was not without good news. Along with them came commendations from all parties for Gu Shi.

Both the Igrit Empire and the Holy See of Light gave a reward each. In order to thank him, the mayor of Langari gave Gu Shi an extra gift.

Because of the conversation with Ilsa two days ago, Gu Shi knew that the city lord wanted to win him over, so he was a little hesitant about whether to accept the gift from the city lord, but Ilsa told him to just take it.

Her exact words were, "This is a gift from the City Lord as a token of his gratitude. Just accept it with peace of mind. He won't use this to harass you again, and you don't need to return the favor."

Thanks to these rewards, Gu Shi became extremely wealthy. As for the two pieces of spoils he had confiscated, Bishop Charles said they might have to be returned later, and he would have them sent directly to Congleton.

After completing these procedures, Gu Shi and his friends were finally able to return to the academy. There had been enough accidents during this trip, and Gu Shi now just wanted to return to his daily life as soon as possible.

Because the teleportation tower had not been repaired yet, they could only choose to travel by Warcraft. However, since Field was there, they naturally chose the fast and comfortable flying Warcraft.

Looking at the familiar academy, Gu Shi always felt as if it was just a day ago.

When he returned to the dormitory, Gu Shi happened to meet Wendel who was coming back from class.

Wendell was quite excited when he saw Gu Shi coming back: "You are finally back. I thought you were in trouble outside."

Gu Shi sat on the sofa. "The mentors leading the team are here, what can happen? I also brought back some gifts this time, this is for you."

He handed Wendell the aromatherapy he had chosen earlier.

Wendell took the item and looked at him curiously. "How did you manage to remain so calm? News of Langari being attacked by the lich has spread everywhere. The news I heard was very terrifying. If I were faced with something like that, I definitely wouldn't be as calm as you."

Because the demonic incident happened in the basement of the church and was blocked by Bishop Charles, no news had come out from outside. Naturally, Wendel only knew information about the lich.

Gu Shi spread his hands and said, "It's been almost ten days since the incident ended. It's only natural that I should be calm. Besides, when the lich attacked, I stayed in the church the whole time and didn't see what was happening outside."

Gu Shi specifically asked Ilsa to talk to those people and not let her name appear in this matter.

Although some senior executives will definitely know about it, as long as the public doesn't know about it, it's fine. Gu Shi doesn't want to live under the eyes of others in the future.

"I really admire you in every way." After saying that, Wendel handed Gu Shi a large bag of photo stones.

"Here, these are the lessons I recorded for you during this period. You've missed quite a few classes, so try your best to catch up. If you have any questions, you can ask me."

"I almost forgot about it, thank you." If Wendel hadn't mentioned it, Gu Shi would have almost forgotten about it. This trip took him much longer than originally scheduled. Just looking at the number of photo stones, he knew that he had a lot of lessons to make up.

Gu Shi sighed, not expecting to face the hell of remedial classes as soon as he came back.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered Field's invitation, "By the way, Wendell, I have another favor to ask of you."

"What's up?"

"I'd like to ask you to help me investigate a mentor named Field Burns."

Wendell asked in surprise, "Is it Burns from our college? Why do you suddenly want to investigate him?"

Gu Shi replied, "Professor Field wants to invite me to be his student. Since I don't know him very well, I'd like to ask you to help me check him out."

"What!"

Wendell's voice suddenly rose, and Gu Shi was startled by him. "What's wrong? You look like this, is there something wrong with him?"
