After a whole year of effort, he, Jiang Jinan, finally transmigrated into the book! In the novel, supernatural entities suddenly descended, and humans suddenly awakened psychic powers that let them summon gods from human history to fight them. The better known a god was to humanity, the stronger they were. At first, the two sides were evenly matched, and everyone thought this was a process of evolution. Then the Nightmare Memory Ghost appeared, able to devour human memories. Memories vanished, traditions were severed, and the gods people had once summoned were completely forgotten. Humanity was driven back again and again, until it was utterly defeated. Now Jiang Jinan had transmigrated to the fifty-ninth year after the supernatural entities descended, with only one year left until humanity's extinction in the book. Jiang Jinan recalled the thousand-word comment he had written right before transmigrating. While the memory was still fresh, he immediately gathered everyone to tell them stories about the gods. "Remember Zeus? He's incredibly powerful. He can fall in love with anything and have children with it." "That means he can totally have kids with ghosts, too!" "With Zeus's divine power, won't the little ghosts he has with the big ghosts all turn into our ghosts?" The gods, waiting quietly in the depths of the world to descend, were finally remembered by humanity. Zeus, the first one to be remembered, held his head high and strode out proudly. I really am the undisputed king of the gods! Humanity remembered me first! After descending, Zeus sensed humanity's hopes and froze. Humanity's faith had already gathered, and Zeus couldn't refuse. Scowling, he casually grabbed a few ghosts and touched them with his finger. Empowered by humanity, Zeus successfully created a ghost that belonged to him. No! One that belonged to humanity! This thing that opened its eyes and called him "Daddy" had absolutely nothing to do with him!!! When Zeus returned to the depths of the world, he fell silent and wouldn't answer, no matter how much the other gods asked. Zeus: I'm tainted. Jiang Jinan: This is a new ability your faith from humanity gave you! It's not like I actually made you... Zeus: I'm tainted. Jiang Jinan: ... Zeus: Hello, human. Actually, I'm not powerful at all. Let me recommend some other, more powerful gods, like Poseidon. He's also very good at making children. "[Football] I'm a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Can't I Be a Goalkeeper?" [Blurb] A truck sent Ao Shaoyuan to the Jurassic period, where he became a newly hatched Tyrannosaurus rex. After more than a decade as a Tyrannosaurus rex, Ao Shaoyuan's memories gradually grew hazy. When he died and opened his eyes again, he found he had become a well-known idiot in an American slum. Soon, someone adopted him, and he got a new name: Henry Brown. At first, people suggested Henry Brown become an American football player. But he had quick reflexes and no idea how to hold back. After spending just over a month with the Idaho Destroyers and sending dozens of teammates to the hospital, he was politely shown the door. After that, Henry Brown tried basketball. Anyone who watched his solo tryout was convinced he could become the next Shaq: It doesn't matter if you can't shoot. Just put all your strength into the opposing players. Soon, during a summer league game, Henry Brown beat up a fan who kept yapping in the arena and threw things at him. Basketball arenas put fans too close. Henry Brown couldn't rein in his temper at all. He appeared in just one NBA playoff game, punching a fan who threw a pizza at his face and sending him to the hospital. And then, well... he retired again. After that, Henry Brown could only go to WWE, where he didn't need much technical skill, and become a wrestler. In less than six months, he beat everyone and filled his collection with championship belts. But with all the suspense gone, ratings kept dropping, and Henry Brown was once again encouraged to leave. Henry Brown simply decided to lie flat. On February 9, 2022, his adoptive father, Tate Brown, took him to an Everton game. A Newcastle fan dressed in a Tyrannosaurus rex costume was singing a taunt about Everton goalkeeper Pickford. "His arms are too short. He can't even reach the goalposts. Can he really be a goalkeeper?" Henry Brown: ????? How does having short arms mean you can't be a goalkeeper?! Henry Brown immediately turned to his adoptive father, Tate Brown. "I want to be a goalkeeper!" Become a goalkeeper, then beat all those guys up! I might not be able to solve the problem, but I can solve the people causing it! Henry Brown was utterly determined. Tate Brown reluctantly gave in, but said, "How about you try out for one of those desert football teams first? They probably have lower standards, so they won't kick you out too quickly." Theme: Hard work and the right choices are both essential.
