After actually entering the inner temple, Xiao Ran and David saw several more boxes placed in front of the walls on both sides of the door.
Through perspective, Xiao Ran saw clearly.
In those boxes, there are many weird costumes, props, etc.
There are demons, popes, costumes of Don Quixote, etc., as well as various ghastly masks, knight swords, etc.
All of these things give people a lingering sense of evil that makes people shudder.
Fortunately, Xiao Ran had already seen these things through perspective, so his expression did not change at all and did not reveal any flaws.
David standing aside, except that his face was a little pale, his performance was okay.
After entering the door and standing still, Xiao Ran quickly scanned the indoor environment, and then said to Christopher:
"The lighting here is too dim, and the details in some places can't be seen clearly at all. I need a strong searchlight and a ladder."
"One more thing. During the exploration process, the white cloth covering those niches and the white cloth in the center of the room may have to be uncovered."
"But you can rest assured, Christopher, we will never leak a word about the situation here!"
Christopher did not respond immediately, but fell into deep thought.
After a while, the guy nodded and said:
"Okay, Sean, I can agree to these requests of yours."
"I'm going to get a strong searchlight and a ladder right away. You'd better not make any move before I return."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
“No problem, you can rest assured”
Christopher then turned and left the inner temple to get a searchlight and a ladder.
As soon as he left, David whispered:
"Sean, why do I have a creepy feeling, and this feeling is getting stronger and stronger!"
"There's one thing I still can't figure out. Why does the Skull and Bones Society want to be so evil? Doesn't it seem necessary?"
Xiao Ran turned to look at him, then smiled and said:
"The Skull and Bones Society originated from the legendary Illuminati. Not long after the Illuminati was born, it became the target of severe suppression and even massacre by various European countries."
"To ensure the safety of the organization, such secret societies have formulated very harsh and strict conditions for membership, including various vicious oaths, etc."
"The Skull and Bones Society has obviously inherited this tradition and has some evil attributes of its own!"
"One thing must be admitted. The long-lasting prosperity of Skull and Bones is partly due to this."
"As far as I know, it has only happened once in history that a member of the Skull and Bones Society betrayed the society. The traitor was quickly eliminated by the Skull and Bones Society."
"The Skull and Bones Society is committed to seizing national power and wealth by any means necessary to create the so-called new world order. How can it be possible?"
While he was talking, Christopher had returned to the temple carrying the ladder.
Seeing him coming back, Xiao Ran and David immediately stopped talking.
After entering the inner temple, Christopher handed over the searchlight and put the ladder next to it.
Xiao Ran took the searchlight, turned it on casually, and pretended to be serious about checking the situation at the scene.
Next, he surveyed the floors and walls of the inner temple, leaving no corner untouched.
At the same time, David took the metal detector and scanned the floor and walls.
However, they found no surprising results.
Only some metal objects were scanned in the fifteen niches containing coffins on the wall.
Those metal items are accessories in the niche, not gold and silver treasures hidden in the wall, and have little value.
After a while, they had explored all the areas below two meters, but still found nothing.
Xiao Ran immediately stopped what he was doing and stood in the center of the temple, meditating.
After a while, he said:
"Christopher, when did these fifteen niches and the contents in the niches appear? I need to know this information."
Hearing this, Christopher paused for a moment before giving the answer.
"According to internal records of the society, this internal temple already existed when the society was established."
"These fifteen niches were built later, around 1889."
"The person who presided over the construction of these niches was the president at the time, Henry Stimson."
"Stimson was one of America's most famous strategists, serving as secretary of state and two terms secretary of war."
"It was under his leadership and that of President Taft that our society ushered in its first golden age of development!"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Ran laughed softly.
"I know Henry Stimson. He served seven U.S. presidents and was a political roly-poly with a lot of power!"
"In my opinion, Stimson's greatest achievement was his suggestion of a nuclear assault on Japan, which ultimately led to the U.S. military dropping two atomic bombs on Japan."
"It is a pity that the US military dropped too few atomic bombs on Japan. It would be great if they could drop twenty atomic bombs. I would admire Stimson even more!"
"Hahaha"
David and Christopher both laughed.
After the laughter subsided, Christopher continued:
"It seems that you have deep hostility towards Japan. It's a pity that history cannot be repeated!"
"Stimson advocated a nuclear attack on Japan because he wanted to make a crash landing, not to wipe Japan off the face of the earth!"
After chatting for a few words, Xiao Ran returned to the topic.
"Christopher, now you can uncover the white cloths in the alcoves, and the white cloth in the center of the room."
"I need to check the situation in these niches, maybe I will find something."
"Based on the time when these niches were built, there may be some unknown secrets hidden in these niches."
"ah!"
Christopher exclaimed, his eyes full of disbelief.
Immediately afterwards, the guy shook his head.
"Maybe there are some secrets hidden in these alcoves? Impossible?"
"Every year when new members join the club, these niches are used. I have never found anything special."
Having said that, this guy walked to the center of the room and lifted the white cloth covering the coffin.
Then he walked to the wall and peeled off the white cloths in the fifteen niches one by one.
Following his movements, black coffins appeared one after another.
Although they had expected to see so many coffins, Xiao Ran and David were still shocked when they actually saw them.
Especially David, his face became a little paler and his eyes became more conflicted.
After lifting all the white cloths, Christopher stepped aside and raised his hand to make a please gesture.
"Sean, you can come forward and check, but it's best not to touch these coffins."
"New members who join our society spend a night in these coffins, and stay in the coffins..."
At this point, Christopher suddenly stopped talking.
He suddenly realized that he had talked a little too much and seemed to have said something he shouldn't have said.
Fortunately, he woke up in time and did not reveal too many secrets about the Skull and Bones Society.
Even so, Xiao Ran and David still felt a chill.
They couldn't help but shiver at the thought of sleeping in these coffins for a night and doing some indescribable things!
After adjusting his mood for a moment, Xiao Ran walked towards the coffin in the center of the room and began to explore.
This is the largest and most luxurious coffin in the entire room. It is carved from black marble. The other coffins are all made of iron.
On the panel of this coffin are engraved the Skull and Bones emblem and the statue of the Goddess of Eloquence, as well as the Skull and Bones' membership oath.
In addition, there are many mysterious patterns and patterns engraved around the coffin. The specific meaning is unknown!
Xiao Ran stepped forward and took a closer look at the coffin, focusing on the connection between the coffin, the base, and the floor.
But he did not open the coffin board to see what was inside the coffin.
After checking it carefully, he shook his head slightly and walked towards the first niche on the right wall.
At the same time, he also carried the herringbone ladder to the niche in case of emergency.
As soon as they approached this alcove, Xiao Ran and David saw it.
The coffin erected in the niche was densely engraved with people's names. There were more than 130 names arranged from the top of the coffin downwards.
The moment they saw these names, Xiao Ran and the others were stunned for a moment.
In the blink of an eye, they had reacted.
The names engraved on the coffin board are Skull and Bones members who once lived in this coffin.
The first night they joined Skull and Bones was spent in this coffin, and they had to do some indescribable things in it!
Once they actually join Skull and Bones, their name will be engraved on the coffin board and they will become a Skull and Bones member.
It took more than 130 years for so many names to be engraved on this coffin board.
Without even thinking about it, the coffin boards in the other fourteen niches were in the same situation, and were also engraved with the names of previous members of the Skull and Bones Society.
On the first coffin board alone, Xiao Ran and David saw many familiar names.
Many of these guys are famous figures in American history, but not many people know that they are actually members of the Skull and Bones Society.
Among these guys is Robert Lovett, who has served as the U.S. Secretary of Defense, Secretary of the Treasury and Secretary of State and has been in American politics for 40 years.
This guy is a member of the Skull and Bones Society in 1918. In the past, it was only said that he was from the Skull and Bones Society, but now it is completely confirmed!
In addition to the long-dead members of the Skull and Bones Society, Xiao Ran and David also saw the names of several important people on this coffin board, and they are all alive and kicking now!
Some of these guys are senators or representatives, some are Wall Street bankers, some are senior judges, some are senior local officials, etc.
However, no one outside knows the identities of their Skull and Bones members, let alone their connections with each other.
If people knew that they were all members of the Skull and Bones Society, many puzzling things would suddenly become clear!
Looking at these familiar names, Xiao Ran and David were secretly shocked!
At the same time, they also felt an invisible threat!
