Magic Capital was the only city on Planet Blue that had a "Uniformed Mage Garrison Guard".
As the headquarters of the Association of Mages, this powerful defense was enough to eliminate all strange phenomena.
This was also the reason why Mo Feng was at ease. After a few words of advice, he disappeared.
After having dinner in the hotel with Wang Ruoling, Lin Qi tidied up the room and began to study the "magic robe" Luo Yunxi had given him to express the family's goodwill.
He had never seen an undead creature before, but the countless news and films on Planet Blue proved how terrifying it was.
Strictly speaking, undead creatures were once living creatures. After they died, their mental strength was activated by a mysterious power, and they relied solely on a "dead" body to move.
They didn't know fatigue, didn't need to sleep, and didn't feel tired. It was a pity to not use them on those special kinetic bicycles to produce electricity.
Moreover, undead creatures were naturally immune to most of the effects of 'illusion' and 'control' spells.
Therefore, Illusionists and Enchanters, who had a huge advantage over humans, would be helpless against a necromancer who could manipulate undead creatures.
On the other hand, Shapers, who didn't appear to have powerful magic but could shape cloud bombs to release pure elemental energy, were a good match for dealing with undead creatures.
The legendary spectre-like undead creatures were completely unaffected by physical attacks.
Only "spells" and "magic weapons" could deal with them. This was also one of the reasons why mages had an extraordinary status.
Otherwise, a single uncontrollable 'spectral undead creature' was enough to slaughter a city!
Therefore, there were many teams of mages on Planet Blue that specialized in such matters.
Lin Qi stared at the Bone Robe hanging on the hanger in front of him and thought about its details.
No wonder ordinary people were not allowed to use magic items without special permission.
The Human Skeletons and Zombie Wolves summoned by the Bone Robe were the lowest-tier undead creatures that could still be destroyed by firepower.
If it could summon spectres, it would truly be devastating.
Thinking for a moment, Lin Qi gave the black Bone Robe a shake before putting it on and fastening the knot.
After the professional examination carried out by Mo Feng's trusted friend, it was determined that there were no obvious traps in this robe. It would not explode or strangle someone to death.
It was 99% safe.
The remaining 1% would be a secret and unexplainable invasion, but Mo Feng thought it was unlikely.
This was because such magic items were very expensive.
There was no need to use a magic item to kill him. Lin Qi was not that outstanding now. It was not worth that much effort to settle him.
As for Lin Qi, who had the "Memory Palace", he had already dealt with mental attacks twice: the "Phantom Killer" and the "Dream Invasion" spells.
He had the confidence to give it a try.
It also saved him the trouble of revealing the trump card of the memory palace after entering the academy.
Yes, the robe felt nice and airy. After being blown on by the air conditioner, it was as cool as a piece of ice.
There was no strange feeling.
Lin Qi looked at himself in the mirror, dressed in a mage robe. The V-neck of the robe was parted, revealing the dark green satin edges. The material alone was expensive, and wearing this, he felt like he looked even more handsome now.
All of a sudden, Lin Qi felt a cold and sinister aura coming from both sides of his chest.
Lowering his head to take a closer look, there were indeed two embroidery patterns on the robe. One was a stooped human skeleton, and the other was a zombie wolf baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
Pressing his palm on those spots, coupled with an "incantation," he could successfully summon them. He did not have to worry about accidentally touching it and being bitten to death.
However, this calm feeling made Lin Qi feel a little disappointed. He had been looking forward to seeing a gold-fingered old grandpa sprouting out.
The family behind Luo Yunxi didn't do anything at all?
Lin Qi shook his head and turned to leave, preparing to go downstairs and wait for Wang Ruoling.
However, after he turned his head, right in his blind spot, the "Lin Qi" in the mirror did not turn around as well. Instead, he looked straight ahead with a stiff expression.
After the door slammed shut, the person in the mirror slowly disappeared.

When he reached the parking lot, the dazzling matrix of lights flickered at Lin Qi. He walked over to pull open the passenger door of an Audi A6 and sat inside.
Wang Ruoling, who was sitting in the driver's seat, glanced at Lin Qi's outfit. "You're wearing it so quickly?"
Lin Qi smiled awkwardly. "Keeping up appearances for you."
He believed in giving it all in everything he did.
It would be a waste not to bring the robe along. In special circumstances, releasing two undead creatures could delay the battle.
Wang Ruoling's expression was calm. She stepped on the accelerator and drove the car up the slope and onto the highway.
"How does it feel to wear a robe before becoming a full mage?"
"Not bad, I guess." Lin Qi rubbed his chin.
Just now, from the lift to the exit, he could clearly feel the quiet glances of the passers-by.
As crowded as it was inside the lift, they still respectfully gave him 20 centimeters of personal space. They also waited for him to step out of the lift first before moving.
Respect for mage was deeply engraved in everyone's bones in this world.
The sky was already dark, and the bright night lights of the entire Magic Capital gradually lit up. The street lamps on both sides of the river were like countless lanterns strung together to form a path to heaven.
Less than half an hour after getting on the city's expressway, the car drove into a bungalow in the old district. Wang Ruoling stopped the car and turned off the headlights when they reached the end of the road. She had a conflicted expression on her face as she got off the car with Lin Qi to pay their respects with offerings and candles.
Under the illumination of the street lamps, Lin Qi looked back at the surrounding bungalows. Most of them were already deserted. The originally flourishing area appeared rather desolate. The roads and gardens were in disrepair, and weeds were growing everywhere. It looked very dilapidated.
Wang Ruoling did not open the door to enter the bungalow, as if she was saddened by the tragedy that had happened in the bungalow. Instead, she quietly lit a candle and burned the offerings. A lonely figure standing there.
At this, Lin Qi could only sigh softly, but could not think of any comforting words.
"Thank you for accompanying me here, Lin Qi." Wang Ruoling suddenly spoke up.
Lin Qi shook his head. "It was nothing."
Suddenly, his phone vibrated. He picked it up without looking carefully.
"Lin Qi, Sorry, I went to buy offerings and candles and was late? I just knocked on your door but there was no one inside. Shall I wait for you in the parking lot?"
Wang Ruoling's familiar voice came through the phone.
Lin Qi kept his smile on as he crossed his arms over his chest in a rather awkward position, pressing them against the two undead creatures embroidery.
Well, he did jinx himself after all.
It looked like this person here wasn't Wang Ruoling.
"Looks like you've realized it?" At this moment, "Wang Ruoling" turned her head around with tears of blood in her eyes.
