Chapter 2201
Just then, following the sound of footsteps, Abraham strode in. "Mister Glasbey, the people from the eastern region
branch have arrived!" He reported respectfully.
Since the Dragon Guards from the eastern region traveled a long way to assist him, Alfred arranged for Oliver and
Abraham to wait outside the door.
Oliver was left to wait with the backup team while Abraham hurried inside to report to Alfred about their arrival.
"Good! Invite them in!" Alfred said in excitement.

walked in alongside Oliver, followed by seven Dragon Guards from the eastern region.
They all had watchful glares and powerful presence, and anyone would be able to tell that they were formidable.
"I'm Zack Weymark, a third-level Platinum Dragon Guard from the eastern region, Mister Glasbey."
"Greetings, Mister Glasbey."
The old man took the lead to bow at Alfred, while the others along with Oliver followed.
"Zack! It's been a while!” Alfred exclaimed.
The southern and eastern regions were located next to one another, so the two branches of Dragon Corps worked
together multiple times before and Alfred recognized Zack right away.
Zack was highly respected in the organization and was known as one of the best martial artists in the eastern
region as he reached the Advanced Almighty State years ago.
Alfred did not expect the eastern region to send Zack over as backup and was surprised to learn how much the
Dragon Corps valued the capture of the Scarlet Thief.
Indeed, according to the information the southern region gathered, the Scarlet Thief escaped to the area between
the eastern and southern regions and could run to the eastern region at any moment.
Hence, the Dragon Corps in the eastern region decided to take precautions to gather a team of capable martial
artists led by Zack to eliminate the Scarlet Thief before he could get to the eastern region.
After a brief exchange of pleasantry, Alfred cut to the chase and said, "Alright, we're all here now so let's start
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpreparing for the attack! Here's to hoping that we can eliminate the Scarlet Thief this time!"
As the person in charge of the Dragon Corps in the southern region, Alfred could not lead the team, so he arranged
for another third-level Platinum Dragon Guard to lead the team of Dragon Guards in the southern region.
The addition of the Dragon Guards from the eastern region would increase their chances of killing the Scarlet Thief,
but Alfred was still slightly worried if they would succeed.
"We'll try our best!" The Dragon Guards responded in unison, knowing that tracking the Scarlet Thief itself would be
extremely challenging as the Scarlet Thief’s precise whereabouts remained unknown.
Even if they managed to find him, the Scarlet Thief could always choose to run if he realized that he was under
attack, so the Dragon Guards were placed in a rather passive position.
For as long as the Scarlet Thief remained in the dark, it would not be easy for the Dragon Corps to eliminate him.
