A Slow Fight With Difficulty Swings Isn’t Too Fun
Captain Wise-Voice can be found in the Pagoda Realm, a prison area found inChapter Three ofBlack Myth: Wukongwith some challenging guard enemies. As the final boss of the area, Captain Wise-Voice is a huge creature on long legs with a central golden core that’s susceptible to attacks, so whenever he gets knocked down, it’s easy to squeeze in some good damage.
