1153 The Western Horizon Outside the City
20 minutes ago——
Britannia Empire, Pendragon, Treasury Defense Area, Central Treasury Building.
"Your Excellency Jacob!" Jacob's captain reported anxiously to Jacob, "The Third Avenue and the Fifth Avenue outside the library have been captured!"
This announcement from the captain of the guard made Jacob's face, which was extremely ugly due to fatigue, become even more ugly.
"Have Third Avenue and Fifth Avenue fallen..."
Jacob had looked at Pendragon's city map thousands of times these days.
Therefore, Jacob certainly knew what the fall of the Third Avenue outside Kuwait and the Fifth Avenue outside Kuwait meant.
This means that the rebel troops are almost approaching the central treasury building...
Jacob grabbed the long sword placed aside and slowly stood up from the chair.
"Jacob..."
Bancro, standing next to Jacob, said to Bancro with an undisguised worried tone:
"Can your body still hold on...?"
"Well..." Jacob forced a faint smile, "It's barely okay, and you should also know that young bodies recover very quickly."
"No matter how fast the recovery is, it is impossible for an exhausted person to become lively and energetic again in just 30 minutes!"
Although Jacob's body functions returned to the peak state of his youth due to swallowing the magic potion.
But it only restored Jacob's body to youthfulness. It did not mean that Jacob's body became infinitely strong.
Even the body that has returned to its peak cannot withstand such high-intensity consumption.
Thirty minutes ago, Jacob almost didn't have the strength to stand up, so he returned to the safest place in the Treasury Defense Area - the Central Treasury Building to rest.
Thirty minutes later, after learning that the Third Avenue and the Fifth Avenue outside the library had fallen, Jacob had to pick up the sword again and return to the frontline battlefield.
After saying a few words of comfort to Bancro, making him feel relieved and not to worry about him, Jacob led his few remaining guards,
Walking towards the outside of the Treasury Building.
However - Jacob had just taken two steps when something happened suddenly.
One second Jacob was fine, and the next second Jacob's face turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then he fell to his knees.
"Jacob!"
"Lord Jacob!"
Bancro and Jacob's guards screamed and surrounded Jacob, who was kneeling on the ground.
Jacob was kneeling on the ground, his body shaking constantly, as if he had just run around Pendragon, breathing heavily.
Looking at Jacob in front of him, a terrible thought emerged in Bancro's mind.
At the same time, almost at the same time, the same idea as Bancro came into Jacob's mind.
Jacob and Bancroft exclaimed in their hearts almost at the same time:
——The potion’s effect has expired!
"Tsk..."
Bancro, who looked worried and anxious, softly "tsk" and cursed secretly in his heart:
- Damn potion! When the effect of the medicine is about to wear off, there is no warning! If it says it’s invalid, it’s invalid!
After such a silent curse, Bancro felt bursts of joy again.
Fortunately - this potion did not lose its effectiveness on Jacob's most dangerous frontline battlefield.
If this potion suddenly loses its effectiveness while Jacob is fighting on the front line, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Quick!" Bancro shouted to the two guards closest to him, "Move Jacob in! And call the military doctor!"
"Yes Yes!"
The two guards named by Bancroft hurriedly helped Jacob up after receiving Bancrow's order.
"Wait, wait..." Jacob, who was extremely angry, said in an almost whispering tone.
However, Bancro clearly ignored Jacob, who was now no different from an injury. Chaiwen
After letting the two guards carry Jacob away, Bancro turned his head and looked at Jacob's sword that fell to the ground.
Looking at Jacob's sword, there was some hesitation on Bancro's face.
However - the hesitation on Bancro's face only appeared for a few seconds.
After a few seconds, the hesitant look on Bancro's face turned into a determined look as if he had made some realization.
Bancro squatted down, grabbed Jacob's sword, and shouted to Jacob's five bodyguards:
"Everyone! Come with me!"
After saying that, Bancro tightened his grip on Jacob's sword and ran quickly outside the treasury building.

Britannia Empire, Pendragon, Baiyang Palace Defense Zone.
"hateful!"
Alyssa roared with annoyance over and over again, raising her hand and punching the wall next to her: "Is there nothing I can do..."
Alyssa really wanted to send troops to assist the treasury defense area, which was now extremely critical.
However - she has been squeezed into the Baiyang Palace by the rebels. She has long been unable to protect herself. How can she have any spare power to support other places...
Ilsa on the side, after thinking for a while, announced to Alyssa:
"Alyssa, let me go to Mr. Jacob's place. If I'm here, I can be more or less helpful."
"...Yeah." Alyssa nodded with difficulty. "It can only be like this..."
Before Alyssa finished speaking, an excited shout sounded loudly behind Alyssa and Ilsa:
"Your Majesty! Coach!"
Alyssa and Ilsa both turned back.
"What's wrong?" Alyssa asked the messenger who called her and Ilsa, "What happened again?"
Recently, she hadn't heard any good news from the messenger, so Alyssa had assumed that the messenger was going to tell her something that would make her feel even more depressed.
However, what the messenger said was beyond Alyssa and Ilsa's expectations.
"Please climb to the top of the main hall immediately!" The messenger's cheeks were flushed with excitement, and then he took a deep breath and shouted at the loudest volume he could: "The shadow of reinforcements appeared on the western horizon of Pendragon!!"
...
...
Britannia Empire, Pendragon, Clock Tower Defense Zone, Central Carriage Station Clock Tower.
A group of wounded people, led by Darlene, silently observed the fierce battlefield under the clock tower.
Although the defensive fortifications outside the carriage station were very strong and complete, facing the siege of the rebels who were dozens of times their number, the situation deteriorated little by little.
Darlene and the others have witnessed several rebel squads breaking through their defenses, and the frequency of the rebels breaking through the defenses is increasing.
If this continues, the defenses will collapse completely - it may only be a matter of time.
"Hey."
Darlene turned her head and said to the wounded around her in a calm tone:
"Those who can move, prepare your weapons."
After that, Darlene drew out the long sword hanging from her waist.
"When the enemy rushes in, those who can still move, follow me to the end."
Darlene's words made most of the wounded present change their faces due to tension, fear and other emotions.
Some people's eyes flashed with determination, and then they drew their weapons like Darlene...
"Hey! Look!"
At this time, someone shouted loudly, and everyone heard it clearly.
"Look at the horizon west of the city!"
