I'm really a serious wizard.

Chapter 222 You Don't Understand Wisdom
"Where is this?"

In the pitch-black, hazy world, Olivia waved her arm lightly, trying to disperse the mist that surrounded her.

A glint of light occasionally flashed in his amber eyes, as if he wanted to take in everything hidden beneath the mist.

She remembered that she had agreed to inherit the divine qualities from "wisdom."
Then I arrived at this godforsaken place.

"This is the Abyss of Knowledge, created by the Enlightened God."

“Successors, if you want to gain the favor of wisdom, you must complete the difficult trials He has set.”

Suddenly, a faint, familiar voice came from the empty sky.

The black-haired woman pricked up her ears to listen carefully and found that the voice was somewhat similar to that of the "god of wisdom," but also completely different.

"and who are you?"

She frowned and asked in return.

Suddenly, the boundless, hazy sky seemed to flicker for a moment, the thick fog quietly dissipated, and a semi-transparent projection of thought materialized out of thin air.

As soon as it appeared, points of light, symbolizing spiritual light, gathered and formed a pure white palace in the pitch-black world.

"I am the guide of 'wisdom,' enlightening the divine being's mental manifestation of intelligence and wisdom!"

"It is the wisest thought in His endless mind; you may call me Great Wisdom."

The mind projection spoke thus, its body flashing with a series of indescribable fragments, its face shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see its true form, yet it vaguely possessed the air of a deity.

Upon hearing this, Olivia's already serious expression became even more serious.

She paused, then carefully asked:

"Great Congming, are you a god?"

"No, I am not a god, but merely a thought left behind by Him, a guide for the ritual of divine inheritance."

The Great Congming descended from mid-air, its body flickering and shimmering.

"Alright, now that you have gained the recognition of the divine wisdom, let's begin the test."

"The rules of inheritance are a test of wisdom. I will pose the questions, and you will answer them."

"You must know that inheriting divinity is no child's play. Answering incorrectly will result in a backlash from divinity. If you get more than three questions wrong, even a demigod will become an idiot, and their thoughts and inspiration will dissipate, turning them into a living dead who cannot move."

"Are you sure you want to take the test? It's not too late to back out now."

The divine being's mental avatar explained the rules in detail, then turned its gaze to Olivia.

She seemed to have been mentally prepared, and said without any hesitation:
"I accept the test!"

Although her trusted subordinates and that vile woman Elena never believed her and always found ways to belittle her intelligence,

But how could those who become top-tier legends be fools?

Even though Olivia hadn't prepared anything beforehand, she deeply understood...
Going all in is also a form of wisdom!
At least when everyone is facing difficulties, choosing to improve one's strength is definitely not a mistake.

At this moment, Olivia seemed to imagine Ron's fawning smile and Elena's devoid of any sarcastic adoration after she successfully inherited "wisdom" and broke through to demigodhood.

Her lips curled up uncontrollably, and she radiated an extremely confident glow.

These people always say she's stupid, but she's actually not stupid at all.

Upon receiving the answer, a book with a dark brown cover made of parchment suddenly appeared in Da Congming's hand.

"In that case, successor, please listen to the first question."

"An out-of-control carriage is speeding along the road, which forks into two paths ahead."

“There is one person who is tied up on the left side of the road, and five people who are tied up on the right side of the road.”

"And as the coachman, you can decide which way the carriage turns."

"Please make your choice."

What is the problem?
Olivia, who had never heard of a similar question before, fell into deep thought.

In reality, as the coachman, she would probably only need to release her breath, and the horses would naturally collapse and the problem would be solved.

However, the student council president reconsidered and realized the problem wasn't so simple. It was a classic either/or dilemma.
She sighed, and answered with a firm look in her eyes:

"I will sever the connection between the horses and the carriage, causing the horses to rush to the left and the carriage to rush to the right."

?

"why?"

The mind clone was clearly taken aback, not expecting Olivia to give such an answer.

"Naturally, it's because the risk of death to humans from horses or carriages is very small. Everyone being injured means fairness, and it means that they can all survive with just follow-up treatment."

The black-haired woman spoke earnestly.

"."

The thought clone paused for a moment, then added certain restrictions.

"What if you were just an ordinary person, and you could only choose one of the two options?"

Hey, who's killing them, me or you?

Olivia's lips twitched slightly. To be honest, this kind of choice was not unfamiliar to her as the president.

Often, the Stardust Mission's work cannot be perfect in every way.

"If that's the case, I would choose to let the majority of people survive and do their jobs properly."

She sighed.

Upon hearing this, the thought clone nodded and said:
"I hope that you, in the future, will remember the choice you made at this moment."

"Based on the answers left behind by the Enlightened God, you have successfully passed the first stage of the test."

"Wisdom always flocks to the wise, not to the hermits who are indifferent to matters, or to the evil ones who bring disaster."

Passed?
It seems this is not just a simple choice, but more about decision-making ability in critical moments.
"Aren't you afraid that I'm deliberately lying to you? Maybe I'm thinking of not choosing it, or that I'll drive the carriage to the road with more people?"

The black-haired woman chuckled and asked curiously.

"In this space, no one can hide their thoughts; it is either yes or no."

"Alright, now the test of 'wisdom' begins."

"bring it on!"

As the president's spirited voice faded, the mental clone turned the page of the book in its hand.

Q: There is a rope ladder hanging 2 meters above the sea on the side of the ship. The sea level is rising by half a meter every hour. When will it be submerged?

So simple?
If it rises half a meter per hour, then two meters would take four hours in total.
Olivia was overjoyed and immediately replied:

"Four hours."

The alter ego's expression darkened, and it declared impartially, "Wrong answer!"

In an instant, the entire white temple suddenly lit up, unleashing an incredibly powerful mental storm.

At that moment, Olivia felt like a helpless sapling in a storm, as if she would be crushed into dust by the mental storm at any moment.

boom--

A sudden buzzing sound erupted in his mind, seemingly coming from the depths of his soul, causing the president's legs to buckle and him to kneel on one knee.

She struggled to open her amber eyes and saw that her body was on the verge of disintegration, so transparent that it was indistinguishable from the surrounding mist.

The mind clone looked at Olivia, who had suffered a terrible backlash, and said without a trace of emotion:

"You have two more chances, I."

However, before it could finish speaking, it suddenly saw that the reckless successor's transparent body solidify instantly at an incredible speed, as if the mental storm had never happened.

"Come on, next question!"

Olivia smiled confidently.
