But then he heard the low growl of a spell beast, which caught his attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel's figure vanished from where he stood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, he appeared on a hill a kilometer away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ground below was shaking as a massive red turtle spell beast continuously pounded the earth. Nearby, several young people lay scattered on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them were mages, knights, and Daniel also spotted an assassin holding a dagger and a priest radiating faint golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a well-rounded adventuring party.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, their equipment was tattered, suggesting they were just a group of friends out on a self-organized adventure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Run!\" The knight in front wiped blood from the corner of his mouth and cursed, \"Hurry up, my taunt is about to end, all of you, just run!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother!\" The priest struggled to muster even a little mana, but under the turtle spell beast's tremor attacks, she couldn't manage it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The assassin coughed twice, then drank a potion and suddenly turned invisible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The moment Kent and I strike, the rest of you leave immediately, don't look back,\" the assassin's voice came from near the giant turtle spell beast. \"Cough... You guys can split the mana stones I have hidden under my bed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This tragic scene made the other members of the team tear up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mage gritted his teeth, grabbed the sobbing priest, and prepared to use his last bit of strength to teleport her away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel, from his high vantage point, watched with great interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a passionate battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a touching display of friendship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah, youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>None of them noticed the figure in the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With death-defying resolve, the knight and assassin launched their final assault on the spell beast, charging at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of mockery flashed in the giant red turtle's eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did these short-lived, bronze-tier humans think they could attack it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dream on. It would crush these humans and slowly pulverize them into mush!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The red turtle stretched its neck, preparing to unleash a deadly sonic attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, a single finger extended from the void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a light flick, as if brushing away a small feather from his shoulder, Daniel effortlessly sent the turtle spell beast flying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a \"thud,\" the massive body of the red turtle flipped several times in the air before crashing heavily to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust that made the adventurers squint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the dust settled, they were shocked to see that the fearsome behemoth was lying motionless, its eyes wide open, and the mana within its body was dissipating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group stood frozen in place, not daring to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn't even comprehend what had just happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only the mage, who had been standing farther back, saw what had occurred. She quickly rushed over with the priest in tow: \"Someone just saved us!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My apologies, honorable sir. Thank you for saving our Ragtag Mercenary Squad. We're from Riverlight Town.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel, who had been about to leave, suddenly became interested when he heard the name of their squad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He descended from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The team members immediately stepped forward and respectfully bowed to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their leader, the knight, was particularly shaken. He had glimpsed a finger flick the giant turtle away, but he thought it had been a hallucination before his death. Now he realized someone had indeed intervened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This man's power was terrifying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That turtle spell beast had been tier-gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could this mage be a tier-platinum, or even tier-diamond figure?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, the knight became even more respectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you an independent mercenary squad?\" Daniel had watched their entire battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their willingness to risk their lives for their comrades, even sacrificing themselves to ensure others could escape, had left a deep impression on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These young people, likely no older than twenty, had potential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Daniel, character was more important than strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With him backing them, even a pig could be trained to become a king-tier spell beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, honorable mage sir,\" the knight replied. \"I'm Kent, captain of the Ragtag Mercenary Squad. Thank you for your help. Is there anything we can do to repay you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another good quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there was an enormous gap in strength between them, and the mercenaries could not offer any real assistance, the desire to repay a favor was completely different from simply accepting help as their due.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm the headmaster of Crossbridge Academy in Riverside City.\" Daniel handed an academy badge to Kent. \"If you're interested, you're welcome to join my academy. We value young people like you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crossbridge Academy!\" The group was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their hometown was a small village some distance from Riverside City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, Riverside was a grand city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for a specialized academy, that was a place they had never even dared to dream of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can we really go?\" Kent carefully pocketed the badge. \"Will the tuition be expensive? We might need to take on a few more tasks to save up the money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's free,\" Daniel smiled. \"Your friendship is more valuable than mana stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He snapped his fingers in the direction of the spell beast's corpse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beast's body began to decay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, its essence condensed into a small red gem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Set out as soon as you can, and be careful on the road.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving behind the spell beast's red gem and this bit of advice, Daniel disappeared as suddenly as he had arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wow!!\" The mage's eyes sparkled. \"What a powerful figure. Is this what high-tier mages can do? Maybe I'll be able to do that one day too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't let your guard down,\" Kent said, putting away the gem and looking around. \"That fight made a lot of noise. We're all injured, so let's leave before anyone comes to take advantage.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group quickly suppressed their excitement at surviving and cleaned up their tracks before swiftly departing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They decided that as soon as they had recovered, they would head straight for Riverside City. If they could really join Crossbridge Academy, that would be incredible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel had already gone far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The trace of his mind power left behind told him the mercenary squad's next steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This reassured him that his decision was the right one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They're a good squad,\" Daniel thought as he returned to the academy. Looking at his students, he realized something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to those young mercenaries, the kids here lacked combat experience. They were too sheltered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wouldn't do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel didn't want to raise a group of delicate flowers in a greenhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had high expectations for his students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hard work can improve strength, but abilities only grow through real combat experience.\" Daniel began pondering how to organize a large-scale academy-wide training exercise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, an anxious-looking Isolde came to find him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What's wrong? Are the mana stones all used up?\" Daniel glanced at her and tossed over a large bag of mana stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, no! Daniel, please stop giving me mana stones,\" Isolde jumped in surprise. \"I'm losing sleep every night worrying about how to spend all this money.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm here to report something else.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've received intelligence that strange lightning has been appearing along the northern border, near the Desolate Plains.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The lightning is making the spell beasts restless, and there's a high chance it could trigger a spell beast surge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\" Daniel coughed awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That had been his doing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it shouldn't have had much of an impact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isolde continued, her face filled with concern: \"Many prophets are saying this is a sign of the world's end. There have already been a few spell beast sightings outside the border cities.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Some have even shown up near nearby towns.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daniel, should we be preparing for this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The end of the world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a bit of an exaggeration, Daniel thought, but it seemed like a good opportunity to train his students.\u003C\u002Fp>",1445,"2026-06-06T15:56:15.975Z",1,"novelbin.me","31ba997e0d0a714d053cfde03f1ad877aa9ea904c82895ce79afa3d34ec7ceda","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-14","imprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-chapter-12",734,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fimprisoned-for-a-trillion-years-i-was-worshipped-cover.jpg"]
