Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor-Chapter 758 - 108 Undead Army Approaches_2

The Elf Race doesn't consider abundant facial hair as a sign of masculinity; that's an aesthetic peculiar to humans and dwarves.

Elves have always possessed their own unique sense of art and beauty, as evidenced by this male elf who exposed his chest, revealing muscular physique and broad shoulders, with several prominent war pattern symbols tattooed on his neck.

Lin Rui pursed his lips and said, "Tattoos like that make him look like a thug, you better stay away from him."

Rose smiled and said to Lin Rui, "Don't be jealous. My friends and childhood buddies all call me Weiwei, so it doesn't mean anything. The mark on his neck isn't a tattoo, it's a merit war pattern, symbolizing how many legendary-level foes he's slain."

Oh, is that so? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Lin Rui burst into laughter and proactively extended his hand to the other party for a handshake, saying, "Hello, hello. I'm Rose's fiancé, Lin Rui: Golden Pansy, but you can just call me Lin Rui."

"Fiancé?" The other party's eyes immediately narrowed, full of killing intent: "Weiwei, is this true?"

Rose was about to explode with anger and immediately smacked Lin Rui on the back: "What nonsense are you spouting? Now my friends will all come gossiping."

The elf male instantly emitted a chilling aura, drawing his long sword, glaring at Lin Rui: "If you dare tarnish Weiwei's reputation, without an explanation today, I'll kill you!"

Lin Rui shrugged and said, "I do want to marry Weiwei, but she hasn't agreed yet, so I'm a fiancé-in-waiting."

Rose immediately gave Lin Rui's leg a furious kick: "Stop spouting nonsense! In our Elf World, marriage is a sacred term, signifying thousands of years of fidelity and unswerving devotion. Don't tarnish such a pure word! And you, you're such a climber! Calling me Weiwei just like that."

"So what? Others can, but I can't? He can, but I can't? You better think it through before you speak."

"You..." Rose was so exasperated she could bite him again, but held back, fearing this petty guy would become even more jealous.

Meanwhile, the elf male's eyes were already burning with fire, and he said, "Rose, is he harassing you? I can help you eliminate him!"

Rose glanced at Lin Rui, though tempted to nod immediately and let him learn a lesson, she shook her head, "Oland, you've misunderstood. He's always like this, speaking without a filter, just joking around."

Oland glared fiercely at Lin Rui: "You better watch out! If you cause Weiwei any trouble, you'll regret it."

Lin Rui immediately withdrew his outstretched right hand, then placed it on Rose's shoulder, saying, "How's it your business? Weiwei and I can do whatever we want! Let's go!"

Seeing Lin Rui's arm draped over Rose's shoulder, who was always so cold and aloof, Oland was immediately furious, his eyes nearly shooting fire: "Stop! You bastard! How dare you offend Weiwei, I'll kill you."

Lin Rui couldn't be bothered with him; if he's capable, let's see if he dares defy the Empress's will.

Rose angrily pushed against Lin Rui's right chest, trying to dislodge him: "You bastard, let go. I need to get to the base, there must be a military meeting."

Lin Rui instead pulled her directly into his embrace and whispered, "Behave yourself, I still haven't held you accountable for deceiving me! Do you think I'm as simple-minded as you?"

Then Lin Rui raised his voice: "It's not like the base has only one road, we don't need to walk with him. I'll take you, my dear fiancée, Weiwei."

Rose's body suddenly stiffened, her resistance faltering, being led away by Lin Rui's arm.

Behind them, Oland had already drawn his saber, the veins on his hands bulging, the Giant War Dancer's blade flashing with spiritual light, but he hesitated to act, watching as the two walked away together, disappearing into the forest.

Once they left Oland's sight, Lin Rui finally released Rose's delicate waist, as she had said, she indeed had a slender waist, flexible yet resilient, her skin smooth and delicate like silk.

The overall tactile sensation was excellent, and the fragrance lingered on his hands.

After releasing Rose, Lin Rui looked down at her and said, "Come on, be honest, why did you lie to me?"

"What did I lie to you about?" Rose lacked confidence, not daring to meet Lin Rui's eyes.

"You didn't lie to me?" Lin Rui smiled at her: "Are you sure you don't want to confess, and instead wait for me to uncover it? Our always proud and aloof Lord Rose, actually has friends now? Since when?"

Rose's confidence instantly evaporated, lowering her gaze to the roadside flowers and plants.

Lin Rui asked, "So, what's his relationship with you?"

"Colleague… comrade, I suppose." Rose thought for a moment and said, "Alright, he's always wanted to become my partner, but I never had such intentions, always treating him as a brother."

Poor soul, always thought of as a brother.

Lin Rui immediately leaned in, smiling, whispering into Rose's ear, "So why hide this relationship? Afraid I'll overthink it? Or afraid I'll get jealous?"

Rose's earlobes instantly turned red, quickly pushing Lin Rui away: "Don't... don't be so full of yourself. I just felt there was no need to mention it!"

"Alright then." Lin Rui shrugged indifferently, "I also feel he doesn't pose a threat to me. I'll take you back to the base; isn't there a military meeting?"

Rose looked up at Lin Rui, her face still tinged with blush: "I don't need you to escort me, I can get there myself!"

"Why not? I want to join the military meeting too. After all, I'm leading a large army, participating in this battle. Are you going or not? If not, I'll carry you, and if others see me holding you, it'll be even harder to explain."

The blush on Rose's fair skin instantly disappeared, as she leaned over and bit Lin Rui's shoulder viciously: "You, you're just despicable!"

After venting her frustration, she turned around, leading Lin Rui directly towards the military base near the imperial court.

The Elf's military base had been moved from the treetops into the forest. Here, ancient trees are abundant, and the vast terrain is known as the "Jade Forest." This base is famous for its green crystal walls and spire-like structures, each topped with enchanting magic light. These walls are protected by powerful magic, making the place immune to external threats.

At the entrance stood an archway guarded by over a hundred Elf Guards, embedded in the city walls. These guards wore emerald green armor adorned with exquisite elf emblems, their weapons shimmering with magical light, clearly high-grade magic products of the Elf Race.

The internal structure of the base was complex, like a microcosm. There were training grounds, armories, barracks, and numerous intricate magical devices. Within the barracks, elf soldiers were fully armed, evidently ready to respond to any call to protect their home.

Walking through the base, Rose introduced Lin Rui: "This will be the future command center for the war operations against the Graveyard. See that tallest magic tower? The military council is set up inside, known as 'Jade Heart.' Inside this tower, it can display the real-time military layout and battlefield dynamics around the forest."

With Rose's guidance, Lin Rui smoothly entered the Jade Heart, the guards at the gate did not inquire much.

Upon entering, there was that green-haired Oland, sitting at a corner of the conference table, staring intently at Lin Rui.

Around the conference table were a few others, but Lin Rui didn't have time to pay attention to them and instead focused on the real-time map in the center of the table.

This map wasn't much different from the map in the territory's government hall, and Lin Rui understood it at a glance.

"If this is the real-time situation, aren't the undead already pressing down with their army?"
