Sacrifice's Rise: I Became Invincible After Entering Godslayer Temple

Chapter 156 Chapter 155-The Party Ends, Back to the Game（1st update, Cheer me with Power Stones!）

The moment Amelia woke up, her eyes were filled with panic.

The actress who had always shown strength and composure in front of her fans began to hastily check her clothes.

Her eyes were frantic, her heart sinking. She knew she had been targeted.

After many years in the entertainment industry, she was all too familiar with these dirty tricks.

From the moment her body started to feel wrong, she had sensed something was off.

She might not be a heavy drinker, but she wasn't a lightweight either.

How could she have lost consciousness without any warning?

Despite not feeling any physical discomfort, and her clothes still intact, her memory was clear.

She remembered how that beast Christopher had taken her from the hall downstairs to this rest room.

It was only when she found her clothing untouched and no discomfort in her body, did Amelia breathe a sigh of relief.

"You're awake…" A warm voice came from beside her.

Startled, Amelia quickly turned her head to see John sitting next to her, looking at her with a clear and gentle gaze.

Still slightly bewildered from just waking up, Amelia stared blankly at John.

She gently shook her head. "Did... did I get drunk? Mr. Foster, why are you here…"

Although Amelia was quite sure that she had been drugged, she still chose her words carefully, not immediately exposing the situation.

John smiled faintly and said lightly, "You were not drunk, but targeted. Luckily, that man was not careful enough and I discovered his intentions…"

Amelia heaved a sigh of relief and looked at John gratefully, "Thank you, Mr. Foster. You saved me... That damned beast Christopher, I never thought he would dare to drug me in public. I should not have accepted the drink he handed me…"

John stood up and straightened his suit, "Don't worry, he'll get what he deserves. Now that you're fine, I should leave... It's not appropriate for a man and woman to stay alone in a room…"

Amelia chuckled, her black hair scattered loosely on her shoulders, adding to her natural allure.

"So that's why the door is open. Mr. Foster, you were afraid of misunderstandings. Don't worry, someone as righteous as you wouldn't make me feel afraid."

John raised an eyebrow and joked, "We've only just met. How can you be so sure I'm upright? What if I'm like Christopher and have designs on you too?"

Amelia covered her mouth and giggled, "If it's Mr. Foster... I wouldn't mind..."

John was at a loss for words.

He had to admit, these actresses from the entertainment industry certainly had strong mental resilience.

After experiencing such an event, she was able to adjust so quickly, acting as if nothing had happened.

John laughed lightly and said, "Don't worry, I've always been the type to conquer with personal charm, I wouldn't take advantage of someone in distress."

Just as John was about to leave, Amelia called out, "Mr. Foster, could you leave me your contact information? So I could find a way to thank you for your help…"

John contemplated for a moment before he gave her his phone number.

As he exited the room, the elegant resting bedroom plunged into darkness.

Sitting on the bed, Amelia suddenly covered her face, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Quiet sobs echoed, tears slipping through her fingers.

Only in moments like this, when she was alone, could this outwardly strong woman finally let down all her guards, exposing her most vulnerable side.

John stood outside the door, sighing quietly, then proceeded to his own resting room.

This was the main reason he was working so hard to enhance his own power.

Despite Amelia's seemingly calm demeanor during their conversation, John could clearly detect the helplessness in her eyes.

All his efforts were in the hope of preventing those close to him from one day feeling as helpless as Amelia did in this moment, just waiting for destiny to take its course...

A silent night passed.

John and Emma left Graceful Waters Manor.

The Taylors, husband and wife, along with their little girl, Mia Taylor, personally saw them off.

John didn't ask about Christopher's fate, and Benjamin didn't bring it up either.

It seemed like a minor matter that was easily resolved.

Only when they were having breakfast, White came over to John and casually explained what had happened.

Apparently, the previous night, Ocean Entertainment's chairman, Alexander Martin, had rushed over in the middle of the night and harshly beat his precious son Christopher in front of Benjamin.

He then forced Christopher to kneel and apologize in front of Benjamin, promising not to cause any trouble due to this incident.

Only then did Benjamin's anger subside.

As for the impact on Amelia, neither John asked, nor White mentioned.

In their social status, even the most popular celebrities wouldn't be of much concern to them.

Besides, Amelia had managed to hold on to her principles in the entertainment industry all these years.

With her shrewdness, she should be able to handle this...

On their way back to their cozy home in the city, Emma chatted non-stop about the interesting things she encountered the night before.

Unaware of what had happened after she got drunk, John decided not to mention the dirty incident, not wanting to taint Emma's innocence.

After a quick change of clothes, they lay back down in the Game Chamber.

The mental connection was complete.

Accompanied by the soft music from the system, the darkness before their eyes instantly disappeared.

They were back in Sunset Mountain.

"Galewind, you're finally here."

The moment they entered the game, John heard Blue Sea's relieved voice.

He quickly glanced around. Not bad, everyone in the team was already in the game.

"Sorry, I was held up by some matters these past few days," John calmly greeted.

He knew well that because he hadn't logged in for two days, the team was stuck in Sunset Mountain, anxiously awaiting his arrival.

It couldn't be helped. According to the system's update, all players would appear in the original location after being forced to log off and log back in.

They didn't have the option to return to town or anything like that.

Without John's leadership, these people had no way to traverse half of Sunset Mountain on their own to return to Silverglow.

They could only wait for John to log back in. And this waiting lasted an entire day.

Thankfully, the new update of Godslayer brought a lot of new content.

The team could keep themselves entertained by examining the updates and discussing amongst themselves.

Unable to wait any longer, Blue Sea said, "Since both of you are here, let's get out of this place as soon as possible. I can't stand staying here any longer."

He and Adam were undoubtedly the most anxious of all.

Their guilds had a mountain of tasks awaiting their attention.

After the game's new version was updated, the overall direction of the guilds needed to be adjusted extensively, especially since the guild wars had been opened ahead of schedule.

Both Blue Sea's guild and Creation Guild, as one of the top ten guilds globally, had to give it their all to prepare.

Whether it was for offense or defense, they needed the two guild leaders to make decisions.

Being stuck in Sunset Mountain was, of course, nerve-wracking for them.

They were fortunate that the communication channel could still be used in Sunset Mountain; otherwise, if they were completely cut off from their own guild, who knew what chaos would ensue...

Adam was even more anxious than Blue Sea.

He had brought with him the majority of Genesis Guild's elite forces.

With their defense back at camp severely weakened, he wasn't confident that the guild could hold its ground if other guilds decided to seize this opportunity to attack.

As soon as Adam heard that John and Emma had returned to the game world, he ran over: "Galewind, you're here? We've completed all our tasks. Can we leave this damned place now?"

John responded with a light nod, still leading the team, and they set off to retrace their steps.

Surprisingly, the journey back was eerily quiet.

The terrifying Lord-level creatures they had encountered on their way here had all vanished.

They didn't know whether they were intentionally hiding or something else had happened.

Everyone was in the dark, except for John, who had a vague suspicion.

These Lord-level monsters that had invaded from the Abyss were likely being rounded up and purged by Fias and the other demigod bosses.

After all, during their last conversation before the game update, the fire dragon Fias had explicitly mentioned that he would team up with the other surviving demigod-level creatures in Sunset Mountain to cleanse the whole area.

They aimed to purify all the forces that the Abyss had corrupted and maintain the integrity of the Sunset Mountain barrier.

This was the trigger for the system to advance the version update of the Godslayer world...

After passing through various bizarre secret realms in Sunset Mountain, they finally reached the Periphery of the Sunset Mountains.

The surroundings had undergone a drastic transformation.
