Why it doesn't return the value?

Why it doesn't return the value?

So basiclly I have a very simple function to get online players but it doesn't return to the value what I'm looking for.

  2. $(document).ready(function() {
  3.     var ip = "mc.hypixel.net";
  4.     loadPlayerCount(ip);
  5.     window.setInterval(function() {
  6.         loadPlayerCount(ip);
  7.     }, 60000);
  8. });
  9. function loadPlayerCount(i) {
  10.     $.get('https://eu.mc-api.net/v3/server/info/' + i, function(s) {
  11.         if(s['status'] == false) {
  12.             return -1;
  13.         } else {
  14.             return s['players']['online'];
  15.         }
  16.     });
  17.     return -1;
  18. }
