Chapter 356 Gamble!

The next morning, Rhode summoned everyone to Anne's room and told them about Anne's current state and the only way to save her. Although this was Anne's own business, Rhode still called the others over. In any case, Anne was also a member of the mercenary group, and as her friend and companion, others were also qualified to know all this.

After listening to Rhode's story, Lijie and Marlene were naturally extremely surprised. Their original thoughts were the same as Anne. They thought that even if the side effects of the potion were greater, they would only last a little longer. They did not expect that the consequences would be so serious. Of course, Rhode also gave his advice to Qilian.

"Anne accepts!"

Sure enough, as Rhode expected, after listening to the advice of Qi Lian he reposted, Anne immediately answered without even hesitation at 0:1. The speed even made people suspect that she had already answered the lines beforehand, or that she hadn't turned around in her mind what Rhode was saying.

"I think it's better for you to think about it, Anne."

On the contrary, Lijie next to her spoke with a pale face to stop her. Not only her, but even Labis and Marlene's expressions were not much better. This is no wonder. As the proposer, Rhodes certainly did not conceal the consequences of failure after doing so. As long as they imagine that Anne would lie on the bed like a dead person, and she could not even move. Even Marlene was a little chilled at this moment. Although their personalities were different, they were all upright and youthful girls. This way of survival that was more cruel than death was something they had never encountered before.

Ask yourself, if this matter happened to them, the girls would probably be worried for three days and three nights and would not be able to draw a clear conclusion. However, Anne nodded and agreed without even turning around, which was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Lapi, is that medicine really so effective?"

Marlene was a little calmer than Lijie. She thought for a moment for a moment. Then she turned her head and looked at Labis. Labis nodded nervously under the eyes of everyone.

"………Yes, yes……Miss Marin, if you want to meet the requirements of the leader of the group... the dosage of the medicine must be increased. In this way, if it fails, the side effects will naturally be very large. It is not impossible to reach the level the leader of the group said...……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Give up, Anne."

Lijie stood up, came to Anne's side, and reached out to hold the girl's shoulder.

"What if you really become like that? Didn't Mr. Rhode say it too? The success rate of this potion is less than 10%! Can't you continue to maintain the status quo?"

"Thank you, Sister Lijie. But..."

Looking at Lijie's worried eyes, Annie showed a bright smile, which was as dazzling as usual. Then, Annie stood up, then reached out and took the dagger beside Lijie for self-defense. She raised her right hand and tried to wave something, but at this moment, the girl loosened her wrist, and then the dagger fell to the ground, making a dull collision sound.

"this………………"

Lijie looked at Annie in surprise and the dagger that fell not far from her feet. She didn't know what to say.

"This is Anne now? Sister Lijie, even this dagger that should have been very light now, Anne can't pick up now. What's the use of Anne like this? Anne wants to be with everyone, protect everyone, and take risks with everyone... But look at Anne now, what's the difference between Anne and a useless person?"

"It's different, Anne."

At this time, Marlene also stood up, came to Anne's side, and spoke.

"Anne. I can understand your thoughts, but I also hope you understand that we are your friends. If you really become that way, then we will be very sad and painful. Indeed, you can't take risks with us now, but at least you can still act freely, right? If you fail, you will always be in bed and will never be with us like you are now--may one day, we will even forget your existence. Is this your expectation?

"Of course not, Sister Marlene."

Hearing Marlene's soft and serious words, Anne shook her head calmly.

"Anne knows very well what that would look like, but Anne must give it a try. Everyone cares about Anne, and Anne is of course happy--but this is Anne's own business. Anyway, Anne is unwilling to give up just like that. If that's when, if it really fails, then..."

Speaking of this, Anne turned her head and looked at Rhodes.

"……Anne is unwilling to live the rest of her life in that miserable way, and Sister Marlene is right. If Anne really becomes that way, it will only bring them greater pain..."

"What are you talking about, Anne!"

Before Annie could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lijie screaming. She stood in front of Annie and held Annie's hands tightly.

"Are we not sad if you leave us forever? Anne, you…………”

Just as Lijie was about to say something, Marlin reached out and pressed Lijie's shoulder.

"Lie, needless to say, this is Anne's own decision. Everyone lives for themselves, not for others. Since Anne has decided to do so, then we, as her friends and companions, should not be stopped."

"It's still Sister Marlene who knows me."

When Annie heard Marlene's words, she chuckled, and she jumped back mischievously, then turned around.

"And you don't have to worry so much, Sister Lijie. You always say that if you fail, what if you fail, why not succeed? If you succeed, Annie will become stronger. By that time, Annie will be able to protect everyone better, right?"

"But……………"

Although Anne was optimistic, Lijie was not optimistic at all. It was less than 10% successful rate and 90% failure rate, which was too risky. If Lijie was an idealist in the past, then after joining the mercenary group. After many adventures, Anne no longer naively expects and hopes for the birth of a miracle as before, but knows how to rely on her own efforts and hands to seize the possibility of success. This is certainly an improvement, but she has also lost something for this.

If it fails, will Mr. Rhode really kill Anne?

Thinking of this, Lijie felt even more thrilling. She couldn't help but look at Rhode, and Rhode was still expressionless as usual. She couldn't tell what he was thinking. But Lijie felt extremely dilemma at this moment. Of course, she could understand Anne's thoughts. With her understanding of Anne, once she really reached that step, the girl would definitely not want to survive. But this was definitely a pain for them--they never thought that they would witness their friends dying in front of them. When they thought of this very likely ending, Lijie couldn't help but tremble. Perhaps it was because of this that she turned around involuntarily and chose to escape instead of facing them.

"Since you have decided, then the leader, let's start now!"

Unlike everyone's uneasy mood, Anne seemed to be as excited as going to the amusement park at this moment. She jumped in front of Rhodes in three steps and looked at each other with her two green eyes wide open. An expression of expectation flashed inside.

"Now? Are you sure you're ready?"

Even Rhodes was a little uncomfortable with Anne's off-line action. After all, strictly speaking, this is an alternative "delete account and retraining". Even those players will hesitate when making similar choices, but Anne's performance is so free and easy, which makes Rhodes feel a little unreal - it's as abnormal and weird as a person's excitement when he is about to face the death penalty.

"certainly."

Facing Rhode's replies, Anne nodded very firmly. She put her hands on her chest and looked at Rhode with big eyes.

"Although only a day has passed, her weak body makes Annie feel like she is almost dead. Annie really wants to get rid of her current appearance as soon as possible and turn back to her former Annie!"

"Mr. Rhode..."

Lijie looked at Rhode, she opened her mouth as if she wanted to continue saying something, but Marlene grabbed her and shook her head silently.

This is Anne's choice, not theirs.

Feeling Anne's expectant look, Rhode shook his head. He looked at Qi Lian, who had been following him, and then Rhode raised his head and looked at Labis.

"Lapith, are you ready?"

Then, Rhode asked.

"It's ready, leader."

Labis carefully took out a bottle of bright red and dazzling potion from his arms. Everyone's eyes were looking at the bottle of potion in Labis's hand. Marlin couldn't help swallowing her saliva, and Lijie turned her head immediately, as if Labis's hand was not potion, but some cruel and terrible monster. However, Anni immediately jumped up excitedly, pounced on Labis's face and reached out to take the potion in the girl's hand. However, Anni had just reached out and saw that Rhode had already taken the bottle of awakening potion one step ahead.

"Are you ready? Anne?"

"Of course you are ready, don't worry, leader, if you fail, then Anne will warm your bed for you in the future."

………………How did this lady grow in nerves?

Looking at Anne who was staring at the medicine in her hands like a puppy waiting to be fed, Rhode shook his head helplessly. The bottle of medicine brought Anne to Anne, it might even make her even more miserable, but Anne did not show any fear at all at this moment, which is too unscientific.

"Remember, drink it all in one go."

Unexpectedly, Rhode finally gave up and continued to guess Anne's brain structure. He handed over the potion and then spoke seriously. Anne nodded, then took the potion and drank it in one sip.
