Chapter 143: One Black, One Red

Seeing the enemy actually block its attack, Red Spirit immediately let out a blood-curdling crow call!

"Wah!"

In a split second, terrifying spirit particles exploded from Red Spirit’s tiny body.

Right hand: rapidly forged an elegant, razor-sharp flame greatsword several times its height, with red rose patterns blazing along the blade—absolutely magnificent!

Left hand: manifested a massive crimson flame shield with a lion-tiger beast head roaring furiously on its surface, making the air itself tremble!

With both flame weapons fully formed, Red Spirit’s presence went through the roof.

Its tiny body effortlessly wielded the flame greatsword, slashing down viciously at the Dark Purple Force Field below!

"Boom!"

Flames gathered as the flame greatsword unleashed waves of devastating flame sword energy, hammering away at the Dark Purple Force Field.

The farther the Dark Purple Force Field stretched from Purple Vortex, the weaker it got.

Under relentless flame sword energy attacks, the outermost Dark Purple Force Field started fading fast!

"Roar!"

Just then, Purple Vortex let out a furious roar.

Drawing the purple-patterned greatsword from its back and hoisting its giant shield, the Dark Purple Force Field beneath its feet suddenly erupted, rocketing it skyward to close the distance with Red Spirit!

The lion-tiger giant shield swung repeatedly, actually catching every single one of those flame sword energy waves.

What’s more, with the shortened distance, the Dark Purple Force Field’s intensity suddenly spiked, pressing toward Red Spirit.

"Wah!"

Crushing oppressive force surrounded it as Red Spirit’s sea of fire exploded again.

In an instant, the sky split into black and red, two forces squaring off!

At the border between black and red, two figures—one black, one red—clashed in devastating combat.

Every sword swing packed bone-crushing power.

Greatswords crashed together violently, giant shields blocked each other, producing thunderous clanging sounds!

The air twisted from their terrifying power as massive explosive sounds kept booming across the sky like rolling thunder!

On the ground, the witness was blown away!

Investigator Diliya stared up slack-jawed at the horrifying battle in the sky.

Just the oppressive force from the aftershocks nearly choked the life out of her.

"What kind of monsters are these two!!!"

Even her direct superior, high-tier powerhouse Captain Barossa, wasn’t half this terrifying!

"At least... at least peak high-tier powerhouses!!!"

Diliya gasped.

High-tier powerhouses—a fearsome level only captains could reach!

Her group had actually run into them, and two at that!

No... not just two!

She hadn’t forgotten that the terrifying monster Purple Vortex was summoned by this masked person and showed nothing but respect for him.

Someone who could keep peak high-tier powerhouses in line...

A real heavy hitter was standing right next to me!!!

At this moment, investigator Diliya’s heart was reeling with shock and confusion.

Meanwhile, Carlos was seriously sizing up his two retainers’ battle:

"So this is flame equipment—incredible combat boost for Red Spirit. Especially the flame sword energy released through flame equipment—rock solid with way more devastating power than ordinary attacks!

Purple Vortex is sharp too, finding new ways to use Dark Purple Force Field—actually able to take to the air for direct combat with flying enemies. Great fighting instincts!"

The battle had reached this point—enough.

Keeping it up would definitely end in mutual destruction.

"Both of you knock it off!"

Carlos shouted, giving orders through soul links.

In the sky, the two figures—one black, one red—locked in fierce combat both froze at the same time, then warily backed away from each other.

They almost simultaneously sent confused soul waves to Carlos, waiting for their master’s next move.

Glaring at each other across the distance, Dark Purple Force Field and fiery red flames still faced off, constantly watching for sneak attacks!

"This is all a big misunderstanding."

Carlos’s calming voice rang out:

"You’re both my retainers—you’re on the same side!"

At these words, both powerhouses in mid-air went stiff:

"Roar?"

"Wah?"

Then Carlos explained through soul links, vouching for each other’s identities.

With their master’s word backing them up, the two retainers who’d just been trying to kill each other finally bought it.

They looked at each other in complete disbelief:

You’re actually one of us!!!

"Both of you power down!"

Hearing Carlos’s command, both retainers instinctively obeyed.

Red Spirit’s flame equipment faded away as the towering sea of fire continuously flowed back into its body and disappeared.

Purple Vortex strapped its giant shield and greatsword back on its back as the Dark Purple Force Field began rapidly lowering it...

"Wah?"

Red Spirit quickly followed down at breakneck speed, about to overtake Purple Vortex.

It wanted to be first back to its master’s side.

"Roar?"

Purple Vortex immediately caught onto this new companion’s scheming.

The Dark Purple Force Field beneath its feet suddenly kicked into overdrive, yanking it forcefully toward the ground. Its descent picked up speed, actually starting to pull ahead!

"Wah!"

Red Spirit’s flames kept shooting from behind, catching up again.

"Roar!"

Dark Purple Force Field pulled like crazy!

"Wah!"

Fiery red flames pushed with everything they had!

Racing each other, they got closer and closer to the ground.

"Boom!"

Two muffled ground-impact sounds rang out practically at the same time.

"Roar!"

"Wah!"

Purple Vortex and Red Spirit suddenly appeared before Carlos—left and right.

"Wah!"

Seeing its master, Red Spirit happily wanted to circle around Carlos.

But just as it flew over, it got blocked by the towering Purple Vortex.

Purple Vortex: "Roar!"

Red Spirit: "Wah!"

Carlos: "..."

Terrifying auras started clashing between them as the surrounding atmosphere became thick with tension.

Investigator Diliya beside Carlos felt her breathing nearly stop.

"Good Lord! These two terrifying monsters are actually the lord’s underlings!"

When Carlos gave orders to his retainers, he didn’t try to hide it from her—Diliya was absolutely floored.

Beyond being shocked, seeing these two monsters squaring off, her heart was unexpectedly thrilled:

"A power struggle! Definitely a power struggle!"

Diliya had seen power struggles before, but never between monsters.

She secretly stole glances at the fully-wrapped masked person, her mind starting to wonder what the person inside looked like to earn such... devotion from two massive monsters!

Investigator Diliya had sharp eyes.

Even for summoned creatures, their attitude toward their master was way too intense.

"Becky would definitely get creative inspiration from this!!!"

Diliya couldn’t help thinking of her best friend, the famous author...

When she got back, she’d definitely share her ’legendary’ experiences from this journey with her, hoping to create some real page-turners!

Carlos frowned slightly—he felt someone was secretly thinking inappropriate things.

Glancing at Diliya nearby—amidst her terrified expression, excitement strangely appeared?

Had her brain gotten scrambled from fear?
