Eh, what was next again? Henry Carter suddenly realized that he couldn't remember the sentences from the "Memorial to the Throne on Sending Out Troops" at all!
Henry Carter suddenly felt a bit afraid that those classic works in his mind would be forgotten. Even though his memory was extraordinary, it didn't mean his memory could expand without limit. There would always be old memories covered in dust, never to be recalled again. Articles like the "Memorial to the Throne on Sending Out Troops," which are rarely mentioned after being studied, are exactly like this.
He wanted to try writing down all the classics first, so he wouldn't forget them all. As he thought about this, his hands started moving, beginning to write from the most basic text: the "Three Character Classic."
At the beginning of man, nature is inherently good. Natures are similar, but habits make them different...
You could say that the "Three Character Classic" was the first piece of classical literature Henry Carter recited as a child. He started memorizing it in kindergarten before he could even read.
Diligence brings achievement, play brings no benefit. Take heed and strive hard. When he finished writing this last sentence, Henry Carter felt a sense of satisfaction—this is a classic that can be passed down through the ages! And since history is the same, there wouldn't be any contradictions in the classics within the "Three Character Classic."
However, at that moment, a crackling electric sound suddenly rang in his mind: The Heavenly Punishment System has locked onto the host!
Henry Carter was startled. What the heck? Heavenly Punishment System? What kind of weird thing is this? He was just casually writing a few lines from the "Three Character Classic"—how did such a bizarre thing happen?
A neutral voice sounded in Henry Carter's mind: Because the host has brought cultural achievements from a parallel world into this world, in order to maintain the original trajectory of this world, the Heavenly Punishment System will issue a Heavenly Punishment mission. If you are fortunate enough to complete it, the system will deem your methods legitimate and grant additional rewards.
Henry Carter suddenly understood. It turned out that because he brought cultural achievements from a parallel world here, it was equivalent to forcibly changing the course of history, so this Heavenly Punishment System appeared. If the mission is completed, the system will recognize these cultural achievements!
But from this, it could also be seen that the Heavenly Punishment System wasn't necessarily strongly opposed to bringing cultural achievements from a parallel world here. Its main intention was probably to prevent Henry Carter from gaining something for nothing!
Otherwise, it could just strike him down with a bolt of lightning—why bother with all this? And after completing the mission, there would even be a reward!
But Henry Carter suddenly felt a bit frustrated... Damn it, everyone else who transmigrates gets a cheat, so why do I have to get tangled up with this so-called Heavenly Punishment System? Every time I copy something, there's a mission—doesn't that mean I have to be super careful?!
But what is he copying now? The "Three Character Classic," for crying out loud! If he tries to make money off this, won't people get suspicious? This is just too much!
Henry Carter didn't sense any hostility. This Heavenly Punishment System felt more like a restriction, just preventing him from wantonly using cultural achievements from the parallel world.
However, Henry Carter had one question: the Heavenly Punishment System didn't forbid him from using or publishing the "Three Character Classic" right now. That is to say, even if he used it to make money right now, it would be allowed. And... it didn't say what would happen if he failed!
It only said that if he succeeded, there would be extra rewards!
The neutral voice sounded again: Mission: Because the host has brought the cultural achievement "Three Character Classic" from a parallel world, within one month, without any protective measures or tricks, leap across Teaching Buildings 1 and 2. A running start is allowed.
As soon as the voice finished, a surge of experience about running and jumping was injected into Henry Carter's mind, as if the most correct methods and experience for a running jump had merged into Henry Carter's body. He just needed to train to master it.
Henry Carter was dumbfounded...
In the school, Teaching Building 1 and Teaching Building 2 are both seven stories high, but the gap between the two side-by-side buildings is more than three meters! That's a seven-story height—if he failed the jump, wouldn't he be done for?
He suddenly understood why the Heavenly Punishment System didn't explain what would happen if he failed—because there was no need to explain. The moment he saw the mission, Henry Carter naturally understood: failure means death... or at least being crippled!
What the hell, this isn't a Heavenly Punishment System—this is a damn trap system...
Although there was still a chance of survival, since for a running jump, more than three meters isn't that hard, the Heavenly Punishment System was actually being lenient. Completing the mission wasn't especially difficult for Henry Carter.
But it's seven stories high! Henry Carter felt dizzy just standing at the edge of the seventh floor looking down...
And what if there are even crazier missions in the future? Like the distance between buildings becoming four meters, five meters... or switching to some other challenge?
Like wingsuit flying with a 30% survival rate? Or free solo climbing? Henry Carter's imagination was running wild, and it seemed as if a door to an adventurous path had already opened before him.
In his mind, Henry Carter asked, "Can I... not accept this mission? What happens if I don't accept it? Just send me back to my original world, bro!"
"If you do not accept the mission by the deadline, you will be erased."
Erased? What the hell, bro, I'm just copying a few things—do you really have to go this far?
Henry Carter almost peed himself on the spot. In just this short time, he felt like he'd already faced several life-threatening situations! Looks like this mission has to be done, whether he wants to or not!
He hesitated for a moment and tentatively asked, "Can I not be erased? Maybe change the punishment to something else?"
