Chapter 211: Meeting the Chairman Again
Strictly speaking, Ambrose had conspired with the God of Alchemy to deceive the Chairman of the Alchemists' Council.
After the Chairman fulfilled Ambrose's wish, he didn't truly become a god. Instead, he was jointly exiled by the gods into this world of chaos.
Ambrose didn't know the exact details of what the Chairman had experienced since then, but it certainly couldn't have been pleasant.
If it had already been several months since then, Ambrose would never have dared to meet him again. With that much time to think, someone as intelligent as the Chairman would surely have figured out what had happened.
But at this point in time, Alkhemia had only just been exiled. The Chairman was probably still completely baffled and uncertain what had just occurred.
This meant that Ambrose still had a chance to deceive him again.
After all, Ambrose had tampered with the Chairman's soul during their previous encounter, instilling the Chairman with a deep sense of trust and familiarity toward him.
With that advantage, Ambrose decided to take the risk.
The once-glorious Alkhemia had become little more than a field of ruins. Only the seven towers in the center remained largely intact; almost every other building had been destroyed.
