Half a day later, a group of people arrived at the top floor of the skyscraper built by Philip.
These people were the world's elites invited by Philip. Each of them had more than a hundred million years of wealth in their hands. They were the richest group of people in the world.
Philip was ordered to select the candidates for the other Oracles. Originally, Philip had planned to select some people who were also elites but far inferior to him.
This way, he could become Zhao Yang's most valued Oracle. However, in the end, Philip gave up on this idea. The gods knew everything. Wouldn't the gods be able to tell the talents of the people he chose at a glance?
The gods had asked him to choose an oracle, probably to test him. If he really chose randomly, not only would it be difficult to protect his position as an oracle, but he might also lose his life.
With this in mind, Philip began to seriously select the Chosen Ones. He used a reason to invite all the top 100 richest people in the world to his place.
Phillip's net worth was among the top five in the world, and no one rejected his invitation. In less than half a day, hundreds of rich people had all arrived at the top floor of Phillip's skyscraper.
"Philip, why did you invite us here? You didn't say anything when I asked you before. You insisted that we talk when we're all here. Now that we're all here, if you have anything to say, hurry up and say it.”
After the rich and powerful people took their seats, they looked at Philip and said in a deep voice.
"Do you believe in the existence of gods?”Philip smiled when he heard the words of the rich people.
"Philip, we came here to discuss serious matters with you, not to listen to you talk about mythology. Gods are just fictional. How can they exist?”Smith, the founder of the world's number one bank, said.
"What if I say that gods really exist?”Philip smiled.
"Impossible." Smith said in a deep voice.
"I know you don't believe me, so I'll let you feel divine power next.”Philip laughed.
After saying that, Philip waved his hand at the hundreds of rich people sitting in front of him.
"Whoosh."
In an instant, the rich people sitting on the chairs were lifted up by a special force and floated in the void.
"How is this possible?"
When all the rich people saw this scene, their expressions changed drastically and they looked at Philip in disbelief.
"Philip, you can't be a god. After you made your fortune, we've already investigated your background.”Smith looked at Phillip after recovering from his shock.
"How can I be a god? I was just lucky enough to meet a god and was bestowed with divine power by the god. I invited you here today to invite nine people to meet the god with me tomorrow. If the god is satisfied, the nine people I choose can become oracles like me.”
" In the future, I'll walk the world on behalf of the gods. Oh right, there's something you must know. In the future, the gods will change the rules of the world. Now, as long as there's enough time, everyone can live forever. However, after the rules of the world are changed, it'll be different.”
"In the future, everyone can only live for a hundred years at most. If they exceed a hundred years, they will immediately die of old age. No matter how much time they have, they will not be able to extend their lifespan. Of course, this is except for the oracles. In addition to having the ability to live forever, oracles can also obtain the divine power bestowed by the Lord God.”
Phillip smiled at Smith and the others.
With that, Philip waved his hand, and everyone fell from the sky and sat back down.
"Philip, is what you said true?”After hearing Philip's words, Smith stood up and asked Philip excitedly.
The other tycoons also looked at Philip with excitement.
"Of course it's true." Philip said calmly.
" Philip, you know my ability. When the Lord God chooses an Oracle, he definitely needs the most elite talents. The time bank I created is the best in the world, so I'm definitely qualified to meet the Lord God. Of the nine positions of the Oracles, I should be one of them.”Smith looked at Philip and said in a deep voice.
"Phillip, my Time Bank is ranked second.”
"I'm ranked third."
"So what if your ranking is high? Many of you are family businesses and did not work hard at all. Your wealth is high, but your ability is not necessarily high.”
" You're right, Philip. I, Bukksy, am the same as you. We started from scratch. Ever since you made your fortune, the rich people in the world have become even more wary of people like us who started from scratch. They won't let us grow up easily. However, I made my way out of the encirclement and created the Time Bank. Although it's only ranked 63rd, I believe that my ability isn't inferior to others.”
All the wealthy people looked at each other and told Phillip about their abilities. They all wanted Phillip to choose them.
"Everyone, it's useless to just talk. Whether you have the real material or not, we'll know after you try. Before you came, I prepared a test paper. The questions on the test paper are arranged for the future world. Whoever answers the questions best can come with me to meet the Lord God.”
Philip looked at the quarreling tycoons and smiled.
After saying that, Philip snapped his fingers, and the safe opened instantly. Then, hundreds of examination papers flew out, and these examination papers and pens landed on the tables of the wealthy people.
"Everyone, write."
Phillip said with a smile after the pen and paper were in place.
Hearing Phillip's words, Smith, Brocks, and the others began to answer the questions. They were all very confident in their abilities. They believed that their answers would definitely be the best.
Half an hour later, everyone finished their answers.
After the papers were completed, Phillip waved his hand and all the papers flew into his hands. Phillip spent about five minutes to read them.
In the end, fifteen people, including Smith and Bruce, were selected and said,"The answers of the fifteen of you are the most perfect. Tomorrow, I will take you to see the Lord God. At that time, the Lord God will decide who the nine oracles are.”
"Philip, is our answer really bad? Why didn't you choose us?"
"Not bad, we're not bad either."
"We also want to see the gods."
The rich people who were not chosen by Philip all looked at Philip and shouted.
" I'm choosing an Oracle for the Lord God, not for myself. I'll only choose the best. You weren't chosen because your answers weren't good enough. Please go back and don't make a fuss. Don't forget that I'm the only Oracle now. As long as I want, I can easily let you stay here forever.”
Philip heard the words of the rich people who were not selected and said calmly.
Hearing Philip's words, the expressions of the rich people who were not selected changed drastically. In the end, they left the top floor of the skyscraper with a sullen face.
