Rhode did not explain to Anne what potion she gave her, and Anne didn't care at all. She took the potion, opened it without looking, then swallowed it in one gulp, then shook her small fist to everyone like a demonstration, then turned around and walked onto the ring. In fact, Anne herself did not feel the effect of the bottle of potion. After drinking it in one gulp, she only felt a very comfortable and cool feeling extending in her body, but that's all. Apart from feeling a little cool and comfortable, Anne did not notice any special changes in herself.

But she didn't care.

When they walked onto the stage, the noise was not as deafening as before. Many people covered their mouths and stared at the arena with worries and doubts. They all knew very well what the outcome would be if the Tianjian Guild lost this game. They didn't even dare to think about it.

Not to mention, many people don’t know this man who is covered in black, and even those members of the Tianjian Guild have never seen him. Who is this man? Why did he appear here and fight on behalf of Tianjian? How strong is his strength? Many people have no idea about this.

Except Rhodes.

He quietly stared at Annie's back, but no one noticed that Rod's right hand was quietly pressed on the hilt of the sword. He knew Carlody's strength and also knew the guy's style of doing things. For Annie, it was almost a complete blow to meet Carlody now. Although Annie's strength is not very weak now, she is very dying. Carlody's style is exactly the type to restrain Annie. Annie is good at confronting head-on, but as a killer, it's a hell that Carlody can confront people head-on.

Not to mention, Carlody also has a sinister trick that Rhodes dislike very much...

Anyway, Rhode has decided that although Starlight's victory is very important, it is not as important as Anne's involvement. Although he gave Anne an insurance policy, insurance is not omnipotent after all. If Anne really encounters a threat to life, then in order to destroy the rules, Rhode will also pull her down directly.

Because of this, Rhode asked Anne not to leave the distance of fifteen meters in front of him and could only spin the edge of the ring. It was his business that Carlody could not get over, but Anne would never be able to get up.

I have to say that although Anne usually looks very casual in character, she still listens to Rhodes quite well. At least so far, she is still within Rhodes' sight.

Of course, Rhode didn't know what Anne was thinking deep down.

At this moment, she held the golden shield in her hand and stared at the guy in front of her who was covered in black and even her face was covered in mask. In Annie's opinion, this kind of person who hides his head and tail is not a good person. Since he is not a good person, he must not expect him to use any open and honest means to deal with it. Moreover, relying on Annie's intuition, she could feel that this person was emitting a very cold and bloody atmosphere, which made Annie very alert--maybe she would not evaluate the degree of threat through the other party's equipment and skills, but relying on intuition is a normal choice for Annie.

Not to mention, the leader of the group once warned himself.

Thinking of this, Anne calmed down, and the golden shield in her hand expanded in the blink of an eye, turning into a tall heavy shield, covering Anne. Then she took two steps forward carefully, then shrank into the shield and stared forward. This was the standard defensive posture of the shield warrior. Although it looked bulky, with the change characteristics of the golden heavy shield, it could react to various attack methods in the shortest time.

From this point, we can see Anne's seriousness. Although she always looks careless and cares about nothing on weekdays, when she really enters the battle, people then realize that the girl's seriousness and meticulousness are no less than that of Marlene and Lijie.

This scene was a little surprised in the eyes of many people. Although they looked down on Xingguang, Annie's performance was still visible. She was able to quarrel with them tirelessly for so long under the booing of 100,000 people. The first impression she gave was a hot temper. At that time, they laughed at the country bumpkin who came out of nowhere. She had a stubborn mind and was stupid enough to want to scold so many people in this arena. She was such an idiot.

So, when seeing Annie on stage, many people immediately felt that she should be shouting, then waving her shield directly to fight the opponent. But they didn't expect that this girl who had a hot temper before had been so calm and directly put on a defensive posture as soon as she came on the court, and she had no intention of rushing forward?

"Oh? It's really good."

Seeing this scene, Victor's eyes lit up. He changed his posture and stared at Anne below with some appreciation. As a guild president, Victor could see Anne's value from just this action. You must know that she is a shield warrior. This profession is a very important protector in the guild. Protecting those precious spell casters and spiritists is generally their task. Since this is the case, they cannot rush up directly because of their fever. So at first, seeing Anne quarreled with so many people outside the field, Victor was also a little worried about this battle. But now when she saw Anne on stage, she seemed to have changed someone else. She was so sophisticated and calm, so naturally she couldn't help but feel happy. Such a self-controlled shield warrior is not easy to find... Who can even quarrel with 100,000 people in front, but she became as calm as water in the blink of an eye?

But in Carlody's opinion, this is not worth mentioning at all.

Tips for carving insects.

Through the mask, Carlody looked at Anne in the distance coldly, and snorted in her heart.

As a killer, Carlody's strength needs no more. As the leader of Dark Blade, his strength has reached the level of master. In Carlody's eyes, a existence like Anne is just like a puppy, with no threat.

It has to be said that although there was no expression on his face, Carlody was actually a little dissatisfied in his heart. Because this mission was originally not under his jurisdiction. But in fact, it was not the case. The storm of parliament's power struggle not only affected the surrounding countries, but also affected the secret forces. Now some people are deliberately hoping to install their supporters in the military force. Because of this, they took out some of the things Carlody did and made a big announcement to say that this guy who did not belong to his camp would kick out from here. Although the other people represented by the President of the Parliament were very troubled by this, in order to calm the storm, they finally decided to let Carlody leave this place of right and wrong to carry out the mission. So in the end, Carlody received the assassination order and came to the Duchy of Mun.

But for Carlody, such a mission is simply an insult. He was a master-level killer and was going to the ghost place of the Duchy of Moon to assassinate an unknown mercenary commander? This is simply killing a chicken with a slaughter!

With his own strength and identity, he was actually sent to do such a job that only junior killers would do, which made Carlody feel deeply dissatisfied and angry.

Of course, he could not turn against the Light Country Parliament, so Carlody vented all his anger on his target, Rhodes.

He originally planned to come, then kill Rhode, then pat his butt and leave. But now Carlody no longer thinks so. He hopes to let Rhode taste the fear and pain, starting from the people around him, and finally to himself, watching the god of death step by step, but he has no way to escape or resist, and is finally defeated by that despair - this will allow Carlody to vent his anger and make his mood feel comfortable again.

As for Rhode's strength, Carlody didn't care at all. He had his own intelligence network, so he naturally knew that this young man was not weak, but his strength was limited, so he could not be his opponent at all. He was just a mouse. As a cat, how could he easily kill the mouse?

Of course, I have to torture the other person.

Especially when he saw that there were many beauties in this mercenary group, Carlody was even more excited. Ordinary men would definitely not be willing to kill women. But Carlody was completely the opposite. He longed to kill and liked to kill those beautiful girls the most. Seeing their originally beautiful faces twisted under the pain of death, the originally sweet voice trembled because of fear, and the clear and beautiful eyes were covered with a shadow because of the disappearance of life - this was simply too exciting!

Looking at Anne who hid himself behind the shield, Carlody sneered and held the dagger in his hand tightly. He could not wait to imagine that the hot body in front of him was rolling in front of the pain of death, twitching his body, and his two slender legs kicked and beaten in the air helplessly and desperately, and then fell to the ground, the scene of death.

That must be beautiful...

Mobis didn't know what Carlody thought. Although he had the greatest power in the Tianjian Guild, the Tianjian Guild was affiliated with the reformist faction. The reformist faction was also a lackey of the Kingdom of Light, and Carlody came from the Kingdom of Light. This subordinate relationship was really clear at a glance, so Carlody proposed to appear in the Midsummer Festival, so Mobis had to pinch his nose and agreed. How could he know that Carlody's original plan was to go on the field and kill people?

At this moment, Mobis was also staring at the ring nervously like Rhode. In fact, he was also very worried about this old man. Therefore, according to Mobis' original plan, with the strength of his guild, if he won three consecutive victories in the front, he would not have to fight afterwards. In this way, the opponent abstained, and Carlody would not have to play to avoid any problems. That's why he deliberately arranged Carlody in the fourth place, but he did not expect that the reality would be so twists and turns.

Now Carlody is actually going to play the role of the entire Savior of the Heavenly Sword!

For a moment, the huge arena was silent.

But anyone can feel that undercurrents are surging under this silence.

Time passes by minute by minute.

Annie did not intend to move forward. She still strictly abides by Rhode's orders, but stood on the edge of the ring and stared at the other party vigilantly. Carlody didn't seem to plan to take action. He was like a shadow, quietly spreading on the ring.

But Annie keenly realized that things were not that simple. Although Carlody was just standing there quietly, Annie found that it was becoming more and more difficult to concentrate. Originally, at the beginning, she could easily lock Carlody's position, but gradually, Annie felt that her eyes became a little tired. Although the black guy still stood there and didn't move, Annie felt that her eyes no longer seemed to be able to capture the other person as easily as before.

Something weird.

Annie is not a rookie like Lando. She doesn't believe that this is because her eyes are tired, so she feels like this. On the contrary, she has already noticed a very dangerous aura approaching and will soon reach her side.

It's coming!

Just as Annie turned her mind, suddenly, Carlody's figure in front of her flashed, and then he disappeared. At the same time, Annie quickly turned her body and raised her shield and waved her to the right.

"bite!!"

A pitch-black dagger appeared out of thin air and hit a solid shield. (To be continued)
