The Accountant chuckled. "Don't be afraid.
I've calculated that the chances of creating a Paragon are less than .03 percent.
Creating a Paragon is almost impossible.
From a technological point of view, a Paragon's body and psyche were the result of an exchange of energy between the body and psyche.
It was too difficult to artificially create such a body of energy.
Even if it's successful, it's an isolated case. The resources required would be equivalent to a mothership.
With that kind of money, the Northern Alliance would be better off building a fleet.
So Titan is a special case. I'm pretty sure he's not a Paragon yet.
If he was, the Northern Alliance wouldn't have let us see him. "
The Accountant's analysis softened the faces of the audience.
The Accountant continued. "So there's no question about Titan's strength. As for how strong he really is, I'll need more information. I'll continue my analysis in the upcoming matches.
So, Jewelry Master, my only advice is that you pray you don't meet him in the first round.
Perhaps I'll find a weakness. "
Lan Jue's face didn't change. "Let's continue," she said.
"Pressure and motivation are always the same.
I've never wanted to be the champion, but I'll always cherish what each match brings me. "
The Gourmet nodded. "Well said.
Pharmacist, Driver, I hope you're thinking the same way.
For Skyfire Avenue, winning the championship isn't important. Safety is our number one priority, and what we gain from these matches.
Accountant, continue. "
"Next, Qi Mu," the Accountant said.
"You've all seen his matches. He's from the Dark Citadel of the Western League.
He's one of the Dark Citadel's aces, a ninth level eighth rank Adept nicknamed the Wolf King.
We don't have much information on him, but we know he's a genetically mutated Adept.
He can transform twice, and excels in attack, defense, strength, and speed.
He also has a special ability.
Unfortunately for him, he's up against Titan.
I don't think he stands a good chance against Titan.
Titan's pure strength is the bane of Qi Mu's existence. "
The bartender's face darkened. "You said it yourself.
The Wolf Emperor might have a special killer move, is the chance not high? "He had lost to the Wolf Emperor, if the Wolf Emperor was not as strong as Hercules, it would make him seem even weaker.
The Accountant shot him a look. "I've never said anything for sure.
Of course, he has a chance of winning. It's just that the chances of him winning aren't too high. "He was very confident in his own analysis.
The Bartender grumbled. "It'd be best if the two of them fight each other in the first round!"
The Accountant shrugged. "This is the best outcome for the Jewelry Master. Only if both of them are hurt will the Jewelry Master stand a chance. Of course, the chances are slim."
Three black lines appeared on Lan Jue's forehead.
The Accountant gave him a long, deep look.
He continued, "The third person in the first group is called Bing Yu. There's more information on this one. She's a beauty.
He's a little old.
About the same as a Jewel Master. "
Jun'er suddenly said, "Daddy, why is this person so bad!
He's always saying bad things about you. "
Lan Jue smiled. "It's because he's in poor health. He has a condition called skin tightness. Every once in a while he needs someone to loosen his skin."
"Ahem!
Jun'er.
I'm not trying to target your father, I'm just stating the facts!
Everything I say is the truth.
In fact.
You should talk to your father and tell him to give up.
If he doesn't, he'll be miserable. "
"Nonsense," Jun'er retorted. "Daddy's going to win!"
"Haha!"
The Accountant laughed. "You're worthy of your father's daughter. Hope is always good, but the end is always cruel.
You need strength to win. "
Jun'er looked at Lan Jue through the helmet, then back at the Accountant. "Daddy's going to win, definitely!"
The Accountant grinned. "Alright, how about we make a bet?
If your father wins, I'll let you kiss me. If he loses, I'll kiss you.
If he loses, I'll kiss you. "
"Do you have a death wish?" The Pharmacist's icy voice interrupted.
"Ugh!"
The Accountant suddenly remembered that Jun 'er had a super mother nearby. "Pretend I didn't say anything," he said hurriedly.
"I … I'll make a bet.
A man's word is his. "Jun'er's voice was full of emotion.
The Accountant paused. The Pharmacist frowned. "Jun'er, don't play around."
Jun'er's voice was loud. "I'm not playing around. Daddy's going to win.
I'll bet you. If I lose, I'll let you kiss me. If daddy wins, you'll be daddy's follower. Whatever daddy tells you, you'll do.
Do you dare? "
Everyone around them couldn't help but smile. This little girl was smart. She wasn't fooled at all.
The Accountant chortled. "Alright, alright. You smart little thing, I'll bet with you.
Just wait for me to give you a kiss on your tender cheeks. "
Although it looked like he was at a disadvantage, it was a bet with a child. He was confident he'd win, so it didn't matter.
Jun'er snorted. She snuggled back into Lan Jue's arms and didn't say another word.
Most of the others only laughed at this unfair bet. Only three of them didn't.
What the Accountant didn't notice was that the Gourmet's eyes held a hidden meaning.
The Pharmacist, on the other hand, was deep in thought.
Lan Jue, on the other hand, was surprised.
Even if the Accountant was smart, there was no way he could have known that Jun'er's Discipline was prophetic.
Making a bet with a Clairvoyant …
The Pharmacist and the Gourmet were thinking that if Jun'er could predict this, then Jun'er's powers of prophecy must be incredible. Perhaps even greater than the Clairvoyant when he was a child.
Lan Jue was thinking that if she didn't go all out, she couldn't disappoint Jun'er!
"I'll continue."
The Accountant went on. "Bing Yu comes from the Western Alliance, an ice Adept. She's very famous in the Western Alliance, but she doesn't belong to either of the Citadels. She's an independent Adept in the Western Alliance, but we don't know if she's used Genetica. She's ninth level seventh rank, nicknamed Absolute Zero.
Her ice Discipline is very strong.
According to our records, she was enlightened with ice protogenia when she was ninth level third rank. Since then she's grown by leaps and bounds. She's an Adept with the potential to become a Paragon.
Her overall strength shouldn't be any weaker than Hades, who lost to the Pharmacist. "
He deliberately brought up Chu Cheng to give Lan Jue a better idea.
The Barber couldn't help but remark. "This is the group of death!
Not a single one of them is weak. "
The Accountant shot Lan Jue a look, and chuckled. "Jewelry Master's best case scenario would be to meet Bing Yu in the first round, and Titan in the last. If Titan and Qi Mu both manage to injure each other, then you'd have a chance.
Still, beating Bing Yu will be difficult.
The Jewelry Master knows herself better than I do, so I'm sure she knows better than I do.
But if we're talking about the group of death, then the first group isn't. There are others who are even deadlier. "
"Are you talking about the Pharmacist's group?" The Barber asked in surprise.
The Pharmacist's strength was clear for all to see. After this tournament, the Pharmacist's place in the hearts of the other participants of Skyfire Avenue had skyrocketed.
The Accountant, however, shook his head. "No.
"No, the Pharmacist's group isn't a big deal. Aside from the Dark Citadel's dark magus, Jiang Yuan, the other two shouldn't be a threat.
Jiang Yuan's abilities are likely to be countered by the Pharmacist's, so it shouldn't be a problem.
As long as the Pharmacist is careful, she'll come out on top.
She's Skyfire Avenue's only hope of making it to the top four. "
The Driver's voice was cold. "Accountant, your mouth is cheap.
The Jewelry Master's right, you should loosen your skin. "
The Accountant looked aggrieved. "I'm just stating the facts.
Gourmet, you have to stand up for me!
I've been busy all afternoon and they treat me like this. "
"Stating the facts," the Gourmet said, "there's no need for personal judgment.
Go on. "
"Driver," the Accountant said, "I'm not trying to belittle you, but the group of death I'm talking about is your group!
Your group is the strongest in terms of overall strength.
So your chances of making it to the top are slim. "
"Huh?"
The Driver looked at him suspiciously. "My group isn't that famous. That Yan Ningya's strength isn't bad, and the other two haven't shown anything particularly impressive.
What makes you think I can't make it to the top? "
The Accountant chuckled. "In this world, there are a lot of people who play the pig to eat the tiger.
Your group is the most obvious.
Yan Ningya's strength isn't bad?
That's why you can't make it to the top.
I've been able to find some clues from one of the Major League's supercomputers. From what I can tell, Yan Ningya's status in the Major League is the same as Titan's.
As we all know, in the Northern Alliance, strength is the symbol of status.
I don't think I need to explain what it means to be on the same level as Titan.
What's even more frightening is that there's less information on Yan Ningya than Titan. You could even say there's nothing.
Because of this, I believe Yan Ningya is on the same level as Titan.
What she's shown so far is her time Discipline.
The rarity of this Arcana could even be compared to the prophetic Arcana.
Currently, there was only one Time Esper who was also the representative of the Great Confederation.
The Epochrion of Skyfire Avenue. She joined the Major League, the Epochrion.
Based on all the evidence, I believe Yan Ningya is either a descendant or student of the Epochrion. "
