Era of the transmigrating earth

After a stroll outside, I didn't find the notebook I wanted to buy, but I ended up purchasing a strange set of items instead. Don't ask why it's a set; all these things were packed in one bag.

There were plenty of these bags at the convenience store. When Du You was shopping, other customers came in to buy stuff. Leaving the store, Du You saw several people carrying similar bags.

There were notebooks, but they weren't blank. They were some sort of Law Formalization Guides. I wondered what was going on with this school.

"Hold on, let me sort this out. First of all, this is a dormitory, that's for sure. But it's a high school dormitory, not a college one. No problem there. This should be the final year before graduation."

Du You painstakingly analyzed, "As far as I remember, such things never happened in the school; there were no unusual activities. Or rather, high schools wouldn't allow students to mess around with stuff like this. My physical condition tells me I must have been reborn. So, let's assume, for a moment, that I have truly been reborn, and the school looks like this."

Du You had a serious expression on his face. "So, I have not only been reborn, but I have also traveled through time or into another world. Nevermind, regardless of who has traveled, I need to understand the situation first."

Suddenly, Du You spoke again, "If it is a time travel thing, then I should have a golden finger, shouldn't I? Golden finger, please show up..." A flock of crows flew overhead but nothing happened.

"Alright, since I don't have a golden finger, at least I should have some memories, right? Let me think."

Du You closed his eyes, trying hard to calm himself. Yes, he wasn't actually trying to remember anything, but trying to remain calm. So many things had happened in a short period of time. If he didn't calm down, he worried his head might just explode.

Du You had no idea how much time had passed, he had his eyes closed for a long time. If it had been his old self, he would have grown impatient by now, but surprisingly, he was able to keep his eyes closed the entire time.

This calmness felt so comforting and familiar.

Suddenly, Du You felt an intense pain in his head, everything turned black, he didn't know what was happening.

After an unknown period of time, when Du You opened his eyes again, there seemed to be something extra in his eyes. "Alright, it seems that the meditation did result in something. At least, I have more memories now."

Du You suddenly jumped up, "For goodness' sake, couldn't you have completed the job? What does this mean?"

Du You felt like crying but no tears came. He understood what had happened: he had indeed traveled through time. The soul of this body had not yet completely faded away. As for what happened to this body, he had no idea.

Anyway, he was now the primary inhabitant of this body, which was not too bad. The soul of this body was also called Du You, it was him after all, so there should be no problem, Du You thought to himself.

The fusion of the two souls began. There was no problem with that. But the problem arose during the fusion process. Why was it only half complete?

Yes, Du You could feel that deep in his consciousness, the fusion of the two souls was only halfway done. The two souls were like two-headed monsters, entangled together, slowly merging bit by bit.

The pain he had just experienced was due to the fusion of the souls. The result of the half-done status was that he had hardly absorbed any memories of the original host's soul.

Only memories of the deepest impressions had been inherited by him.

His parents were the same, there was no melodramatic scenes of both parents being deceased. His parents, just like before, were hardly ever home due to their jobs as researchers. It had been a long time since he last heard from them.

He had been brought up by his grandfather since he was little. After his grandfather passed away, his elder sister took care of him until she left for college a few years ago and rarely returned home ever since.

The last time she came back was two years ago. He didn't know why, but she had a special task and hadn't contacted him since.

The last two years, he had pretty much been taking care of himself. Fortunately, his family was wealthy enough that he didn't have to endure any hardship. He didn't have the tumultuous romance with childhood sweethearts or the school beauty.

In fact, he hardly had a presence in school. Everything was so normal, almost like how things were before he traveled through time. This was too normal. He wondered if he was a fake time traveler.

If this wasn't enough, the memories that followed made Du You feel depressed.

This world was no ordinary world after all. It was a global time travel era.

Ambiguous memories suggested that nothing much had changed in the history until a few centuries ago. However, around the time when it should've been the Ming Dynasty, history took an unexpected turn.

From that day onwards, many fantasy worlds descended abruptly and some mentally powerful humans could communicate with these worlds, gain various abilities, and thus, humanity embarked on an era of individual combat strength.

In addition to otherworldly creatures crossing over from different worlds and the mutation of local creatures, humanity entered a dark age. A century after this dark age, humans regained their footing. The specifics were not in his memory. Du You didn't know whether the original Du You didn't study properly or if the memory was lost during the memory fusion.

Since then, the emphasis had shifted from academic learning to exploring the other worlds. The strength of a nation now depended on how well it explored the other worlds.

There were no nuclear weapons in this world, and even many high-tech weapons from his memory were missing. However, there were many black tech items he didn't know where they had come from, just that no one had conducted thorough research on them.

It seemed that under the pressure of worldly laws, these things didn't bring about significant results on Earth.

They, the students, had been training since childhood. The subjects they learned and trained on were largely related to battle. For instance, this body of his was trained in fundamental swordsmanship and basic meditation.

No wonder when he closed his eyes earlier, he calmed down so naturally. It was not his ability, but a reflex. Just a pity that most of the memories had disappeared.

Only the deepest imprinted memories remained intact. "Luckily, the swordsmanship was all preserved. Otherwise, I would be in trouble three days from now." Du You said to himself with a long face.

Because he remembered that in three days, it would be time for the school's Law Formalization. This was a turning point in his destiny.
