Black Myth: Rice Noodle Mountain

Chapter 3: First Exploration of the Bone Burial Cave and Easily Removing the Centipede

The cave is deep and dark, with bones piled up like a mountain. It is hard to see any signs of life, and not even a blade of grass can grow. It is a demon cave, truly a den of evil.

Suddenly, a golden light fell from the sky and landed outside the cave. Three figures were thrown out from the golden light - they were Mixianshan, Lo Enzo and the big wild boar who were caught by the golden cloud.

"What are you doing? Ouch!"

"Lao Luo, you're pressing on my hair!" The big wild boar lay on the ground and shook its front legs, pushing Lo Enzo, who was pulling its hair and hugging it, to the side.

Unexpectedly, Lorenzo is afraid of heights.

"Look where this has brought us. Do you have any impression of this place?"

"This place looks like the bone-burying cave in the promotional PV." Lorenzo walked a few steps toward the cave entrance and found a few insect eggs. He said, "If the three of us work together, we won't be afraid of these little centipedes!"

"By the way, where is the Mixian Mountain Man?"

"I...I'm here."

A voice came out with difficulty from under the belly of the 300-pound wild boar.

"Oh my, why is there such a soft cushion? Why did you crawl under my belly, you noodle mountain?"

"Hurry up...get up...I'm almost suffocating...I'm suffocating to death!"

The wild boar then slowly stood up. Mixianshan finally caught his breath and stared at the wild boar. He seriously suspected that this guy was just seeking revenge for the kick he had received before.

Luo Enzo said to the two, "Try the magic weapons in your hands first. Don't wait until you get to the BOSS and find that you don't know how to use them. That would be terrible."

He took out the Red Tide and held it tightly. A stream of heat flowed down his arm into his spine, rushed straight to his head, and finally merged into his limbs. Suddenly, the Red Tide double blades burned with flames, spreading to Lo Enzo's whole body, and then the flames dissipated, and Lo Enzo turned into the appearance of the Sword Wolf Coach.

Lo Enzo moved his limbs and felt a layer of something covering his original body. He did not feel any discomfort, and even felt that his whole body was filled with endless strength. He subconsciously chopped at an insect egg. The blade was flaming, crushing the insect egg and burning it clean.

Lo Enzo was overjoyed. This transformation was much more powerful than he had imagined.

"Awesome, awesome. You're worthy of being the bar owner. Watch me." The wild boar's mind moved, and the golden ring on its fang fell off. It became as big as a basin in mid-air and also clamped on an insect egg. As the wild boar's mind moved again, the golden ring shrank and squeezed the insect egg to burst, and juice flew everywhere in an instant.

"Haha!" The big wild boar grinned and winked at Mixianshan, as if showing off, "Mixianshan, what about you?"

"Hmph! What's so great about that! The monkey said that my life-saving hairs can only be used at critical moments and I can't demonstrate them to you casually." Mi Xian Shan put his hands in his pockets and ignored him.

"If you don't dare to go in, just wait outside until we defeat the boss."

The wild boar rolled its eyes, groaned, and followed Loenzo deeper into the cave. Mixianshan looked around and saw that the cave was also surrounded by rugged rocks and gusty winds. It was not a good place, so he immediately became timid and hurriedly followed.

Lo Enzo walked along the cave passage, constantly cleaning up the insect eggs he saw along the way, and finally came to a Jingguan built of bones.

"Boom!"

A gigantic insect-shaped monster jumped down from above the cave and landed on the Memorial Hall of White Bones. In an instant, bones rolled all over the ground.

The insect monster rushed straight towards Lorenzo, who had transformed into a knife wolf. Lorenzo took a stance to meet the enemy without any fear. He raised the red tide in his hand and sent the centipede flying in the air. At this moment, Lorenzo was extremely excited. This feeling was simply AR augmented reality! It was so exciting!
Every detail of the centipede in front of him was presented to him without reservation: it had a long, flat body that was thick in the front and thin in the back, sturdy limbs, and a dozen pairs of slender limbs on the front half of its body, just like a centipede.

The centipede roared and spat out venom to attack Loenzo again.

"Be careful!" the wild boar yelled, and before he could use the golden ring, Loenzo rolled forward to avoid the centipede's attack, then jumped high. He aimed at the centipede's head, and the double-edged long knife in his hand instantly ignited a raging flame, and then he stabbed the knife into its mouthparts.

“Ha—ah!”

The flames exploded instantly, and Loenzo used the force of rising into the air to push downward, piercing the red tide directly into the centipede's body from its mouthparts. The blade drilled out from its abdomen, piercing it through its heart.

After just a few rounds, the centipede was killed by Luo! The wild boar and Mixianshan were stunned.

This is totally different from the one in the PV demo! Too brutal!
"So awesome! Lo Enzo!" The big wild boar cheered like a fangirl.

“Call me, Lord!”

Lo Enzo took back the Red Tide and used the flame to burn off the filth on the knife, feeling secretly happy.

"It's a pity that there were no magical elixirs or anything like that. This is not a good thing."

"Game Science, should be punished!"

The two men and the pig continued to explore deeper into the cave. Along the way, they encountered many insect eggs that had no ability to resist. They were killed by Loenzo and the wild boar at once, just as a practice.

After a while, they finally arrived at the end of the cave. There were seven or eight small hills made of bones. They were bigger and more exaggerated than the bone temple they had seen before. The three of them felt their scalps tingling.

In the middle of this pile of bones, a dozen huge insect eggs are growing, and some are about to hatch.

Mixianshan looked at the scene in front of him and panicked. How could he win if he could fight so many at once? Even if Lorenzo and the big wild boar were not afraid, he would have nothing when the fight started. Would three hairs be enough to save his life? This was a question.

Lo Enzo rubbed his hands together and was ready to start fighting!
The big wild boar was also eager to try.

"Wait! Look what that is." The sharp-eyed Mixianshan pointed to the top of the tallest Baigushan Mountain, where there was a glow of light.

"Let me get it."

The wild boar released the golden ring, flew to the bone mountain, and flew back with the things on it, landing in front of everyone.

They were a little surprised, because what they saw before them was exactly the shrine they had opened in the ancient temple before.

However, after opening it, there was no Buddha statue inside. Only a fragment of scripture with obscure text. It was neither Chinese nor Sanskrit, and it was completely different from any language that we normally recognize.

Lo Enzo stretched out his hand and was about to take out the scriptures from the shrine, but the scriptures floated to Mixianshan's face with the wind, and melted like ice and snow, and merged into Mixianshan's body.

In an instant, golden light shone brightly, the Buddhist shrine disappeared, and once again turned into a golden auspicious cloud, carrying the two people and the pig away from the bone burial cave.
