On the other side, due to the obvious changes in the Ghost Realm, the players who originally stayed in place clearly felt a glimmer of hope.
"I see it... I can see the outside world! We can go home!"
"Wahhh! I miss my mom!"
A group of players were engulfed in the surprise of surviving a disaster, many of them hugging each other and crying loudly.
Gregory Xander and the others were also watching the collapse of the Ghost Realm, feeling delighted in their hearts,
"Did young friend Lucas do something?"
"But where is young friend Lucas? Should we go look for her?"
As they were discussing this, they suddenly heard a joyful shout from the crowd,
Everyone followed the voice, and they saw, against the light, a familiar figure holding a Peach Wood Sword slowly approaching.
Light from the outside continuously streamed in, casting brilliant rays around her.
Everyone was unconsciously drawn to this sight.
A cameraman, who usually had no presence, squeezed out from somewhere and quickly set up the camera, aiming directly at this figure.
At this moment, in everyone’s eyes, she was like a deity.
On the other side, when the audience who had connected to the live broadcast saw the picture reappear, they saw such a scene.
Even though they couldn’t see her face clearly against the light, everyone had already recognized her identity.
When Scarlett approached, what she saw was everyone staring at her eagerly.
The breath of everyone was intertwined, making it impossible to distinguish the system’s aura.
The Ghost Realm was collapsing, slowly connecting with the outside world. If that trace of aura was really the system, it must have already run away by now.
Scarlett felt a heaviness in her heart.
It had been so much effort to finally destroy the system, and if it managed to escape under such circumstances...
Thinking of this possibility, Scarlett couldn’t help but black out for a moment.
Just now, she had over-exhausted her Spiritual Power.
She suddenly paused, her body staggered abruptly.
"Young friend Lucas!"
Everyone exclaimed in shock as their expressions changed, but before they could get close, an arm suddenly extended behind Scarlett, steadying her just as she was about to fall.
Scarlett felt a wave of darkness before her eyes, but she could still see the dots of Golden Light in front of her.
Gregory Xander quickly stepped forward, noticing Scarlett’s pale face, immediately spoke,
"I know some medicine, leave her to me."
Saying so, he reached out to take her from Samuel Chalmers’s arms.
But before his hand could touch Scarlett, he was suddenly pulled back forcefully by someone.
Lucas Jennings desperately pulled him back, not forgetting to say,
"Senior Brother Xander, that’s my brother-in-law!"
Daring to snatch someone directly from his brother-in-law’s hands, this Senior Brother Xander seemed to be lacking discernment.
Gregory Xander was stunned, seemingly unable to process which brother-in-law this was for a moment.
Next to him, Evander Simpson and Victor Quintero, who were also about to help, quickly withdrew their hands upon hearing these words, looking at Samuel Chalmers with rare incredulity in their eyes.
Lucas’s brother-in-law?
Isn’t that Scarlett Jennings’s...
Samuel Chalmers didn’t refute the "brother-in-law" term from Lucas Jennings’s mouth, his dark eyes just glancing lightly at Gregory Xander who reached out first, saying,
"No need for concern, she is my fiancée, I will take care of her."
He then suddenly bent over and firmly carried her horizontally.
Scarlett was startled by this sudden action, regaining some clarity as she looked at the Golden Light so close at hand, instinctively struggling.
Being held made her appear very weak.
Well, although she was indeed weak now, it wasn’t to the point where she couldn’t walk.
However, Samuel Chalmers showed no intention of putting her down, he just slightly lowered his voice,
"Don’t move, you need rest."
Seeing this, Lucas Jennings also persuaded,
"Sis, just listen to brother-in-law!"
She had just been thinking about asking what this brother-in-law charade was all about?
But lacking the energy to argue, realizing she indeed felt physically exhausted, Scarlett simply gave up struggling.
Seeing her giving up, Samuel Chalmers’s faint smile was masked by the Golden Light. He then lifted his legs and walked straight out.
When passing the few young mates beside Lucas Jennings, although those boys were all gaping, they still instinctively followed Lucas in calling,
"Hello, brother-in-law!"
Oh my god, Lucas Jennings’s boast actually turned out to be true!
That Great Demon King from the Chalmers Family was indeed their sister Scarlett’s boyfriend!
Oh no, it’s now fiancé!
He admitted it just now!
Samuel Chalmers paused, slightly turned his gaze to glance at the few boys beside him, after a while, he just said, "Hmm."
This piece of gossip is real!
In the live broadcast chat, viewers who were still worried about Scarlett’s situation were suddenly hit with an enormous scoop, stunning them all.
What did they just hear?!
No, this is their beloved’s fiancé!!!
Did she really have a fiancé?!
But before they could see the man’s face clearly, they saw he had already walked towards the light, holding Scarlett.
As he reached the edge of the Ghost Realm, the collapse sped up.
A large amount of light flooded in, enveloping their figures, scattering fragments of light around them. This scene, this night, was unforgettable for everyone.
Until Samuel Chalmers and Scarlett Jennings’s figures quickly disappeared from everyone’s view.
The crowd, along with the live broadcast audience, finally regained their senses.
Then, everyone was agitated.
No, the trending searches were agitated.
Samuel Chalmers placed Scarlett on a park bench, and then called the driver to pick him up.
Scarlett sat leaning against Samuel Chalmers, having just absorbed some Spiritual Energy from him, she was clearly much better.
At this moment, Daniel Wright also led a group of players out. Upon seeing her, he quickly walked over, just about to express concern, when Scarlett suddenly said,
The bodies of those seventeen missing people are at the bottom of Lakeheart, you’d better retrieve them tonight."
Hearing that the bodies were in the lake, even though Daniel Wright had experienced a lot, his face still went pale at this moment.
At the bottom of the lake.
They needed to be retrieved.
Did that mean those seventeen people...
A flash of sorrow appeared in Daniel Wright’s eyes, and when he spoke, his voice was already hoarse, "I... I’ll go now."
Seeing the sorrow in his eyes, Scarlett seemed to realize something and quickly grabbed him,
"They’re not dead yet."
Don’t make such a face.
Scarlett’s words instantly brightened Daniel Wright’s expression, his emotions were a bit excited for a moment,
"You really mean it?!"
Scarlett nodded, "There’s a high probability they are still alive."
After a pause, she added, "But if you don’t hurry and retrieve them, that might not be the case."
While the two were talking, Samuel Chalmers was just standing next to them, not intending to interrupt, just lowered his eyes to watch Scarlett still holding onto that person’s sleeve.
His face revealed not much expression, and after a while, he silently extended his hand, pulling her hand back.
