The moment the alarm went off, Jia Xiu immediately woke the rest of the team and began following the established procedure.

"It can't," Mia said, her voice already sounding a little weak. "My casting efficiency is only this high."
"How could that happen?"
Because Justina could not directly provide mana for the spells they used, keeping a spell
