The clock turned back five minutes.
When Wizard Smith discovered that the emperor's Magic Pressure had returned to its peak, he also saw that the empire's and the Mind Network's total reserves of Magic Pressure had recovered. With the people's confidence returning, the Mind Network's total Magic Pressure was still rising.
He immediately cast Great Magic: Extraterrestrial Meteor, sending a meteor toward the Emperor Hall in the rebellious province.
