In that exquisite oak box, in addition to the corpse of the Ansa sage, there was also a small oak box.
The oak box is also very delicate, with the Skull and Bones logo and the ancient Greek goddess of eloquence carved on it.
As for what's inside the box, it's unknown.
Of course, Xiao Ran already knew what was in that box.
He glanced at the contents of the box, then gave David a look and immediately took a few steps back.
David understood instantly and took a few steps back.
The contents of this oak box are too important to the Skull and Bones Society, and will even drive these guys crazy.
In view of this, Xiao Ran did not want to come into contact with these things to avoid unnecessary trouble.
His purpose of helping the Skull and Bones Society to find these things was to add a talisman to himself and to pave the way for the subsequent exploration of colonial treasures.
It would be great if we could drive a nail into the American upper class represented by the Skull and Bones Society!
He didn't want to make enemies of the Skull and Bones, that wouldn't do any good.
As for whether Skull and Bones would never look back on the path of racism, he didn't care at all.
It can even be said that he would rather see the Skull and Bones Society's racist tendencies become more and more serious and become more and more evil!
In that case, through the guidance of the Skull and Bones Society, the United States will become more and more chaotic until it finally perishes!
Christopher stood next to the oak box, staring at the Ansan corpse in the box, his eyes full of fanaticism.
In his eyes, that ghastly ancient corpse was a priceless treasure.
The next moment, as if possessed, this guy suddenly reached into the box and prepared to pick up the skull.
Seeing this scene, both Xiao Ran and David felt a chill and instantly got goosebumps all over their bodies.
They didn't quite understand Christopher's fanaticism.
But Xiao Ran didn't forget to remind this guy.
"Christopher, you'd better not touch this ancient corpse directly with your hands. It may cause some unnecessary accidents."
"There are sweat and other microorganisms on human hands. This corpse has been hidden in a closed environment for more than 130 years. It needs to adapt to the outside environment!"
"For safety reasons and the need for protection, if you are going to come into contact with this corpse, it is best to wait for a few days and wear gloves."
When the words came out, Christopher was instantly frozen in place, as if he had been cast on a restraining spell.
Then, he quickly retracted his hands, and the enthusiasm in his eyes subsided slightly.
"Thank you for reminding me, Sean. I was so excited that I almost made an unforgivable mistake!"
"The rediscovery of the remains of the Ansa people's sage is so important to our community. It is a major event worthy of being recorded in history!"
"From now on, we will enshrine the corpse of the Angsa sage and let this sacred object play its due role."
Having said this, the guy suddenly nodded to Xiao Ran.
"Thank you so much, Sean, for helping us find this long-lost relic."
"As expected, you are the best and luckiest professional treasure hunter in the world, just like the legend says."
Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head.
"You're welcome, Christopher. Since I promised to help you find these things, I will complete the work."
“Now that the corpse has been successfully discovered, it’s time to look for the sculpture of the Goddess of Eloquence.”
"Before that, you'd better open the box in the box and take a look. Maybe you can find some useful clues."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the oak box.
Before he finished speaking, Christopher was already looking at the wooden box in the box, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Next, Xiao Ran took out a pair of white gloves and threw them to this guy.
After putting on gloves, Christopher took out the small box from the box, but did not open it immediately.
"Sean, this box is very light and the contents inside don't weigh much."
"Please help me see if there is any danger in this box, and then I'll open it again!"
"no problem"
Xiao Ran nodded in response.
Then he stepped forward and began to check the box.
This oak box is quite exquisitely made, because the skull logo and hell pattern engraved on it give off an evil feeling.
There is no lock on this oak box. Just lift the latch to open it.
Xiao Ran pretended to look at it seriously, then shook his head and said:
"Don't worry, Christopher, you can open this box with confidence"
"As far as I can tell, there are no traps in this box."
As he spoke, he took a few steps back and stood watching.
Christopher nodded slightly, and then carefully opened the oak box.
As he moved, the things in the box appeared immediately.
Inside the box was a letter and a rolled-up parchment map tied with a ribbon.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ran pretended to be surprised and said something.
"Hey! Isn't this a treasure map? It looks interesting."
Hearing this, Christopher's eyes suddenly lit up with excitement.
Immediately afterwards, the guy put the box back into the oak box and took out the letter in the box.
Then he carefully opened the letter and read it.
After just two glances, this guy suddenly froze on the spot, dumbfounded.
Immediately afterwards, a look of surprise quickly appeared on his face, and he cheered directly.
"Awesome! Sean, you are right, this is a treasure map."
"The target it points to is exactly the sculpture of the ancient Greek goddess of eloquence, as well as some other treasures!"
"With this precious treasure map, we can easily find the sacred object."
Hearing this, both Xiao Ran and David were a little surprised.
"Ah! It turns out to be a treasure map. That couldn't be better!"
"In that case, let's go look for the sculpture of the ancient Greek goddess of eloquence."
“After I finished my work and went out, it was lunch time.”
Xiao Ran said with a smile.
However, Christopher shook his head.
"According to Taft's letter, the statue of Eloquence and other items are not in the tomb."
"They were buried on a desert island by Taft and his men. As early as 1850, that desert island already belonged to our society, and no one else was allowed to go to the island!"
"Taft and others did this for safety reasons and to train community members' wilderness survival abilities."
"They set the location where the statue and other treasures are hidden as targets for community members who land on the island to find and compete."
"The club members who win the competition will be qualified to take up some leadership positions in the club..."
Hearing this, David couldn't help blurting out.
"Ah! Isn't this the trial mission in the game!"
Christopher nodded proudly.
"Yes, this is a trial task within the club!"
"I think this task is very interesting, and I decided to follow Taft's example, reopen the trial, and make it more difficult!"
"In this way, we can select more outstanding members to serve as leaders of the society."
Just as he said this, Xiao Ran suddenly interrupted.
"That is to say, I no longer need to help you find the statue of the Goddess of Eloquence? You can just look for it yourself!"
"Is it time to end today's exploration operation?"
Christopher looked at him and then responded:
"That's right, Sean, it's time for this exploration to end!"
"I already know where the statue of the Goddess of Eloquence is hidden, so there's no need to rush to dig her out!"
"This does not affect the agreement we reached. Everything we promised will be fulfilled one by one, so don't worry!"
"Thank you for your help, otherwise we would not be able to find these two sacred objects. I am very happy to cooperate with you."
With that said, the guy came up and touched Xiao Ran's elbow.
"It's a pleasure working with you too, Christopher"
"As I said before, after we get out of here, we will forget everything that happened here."
"You can rest assured, you don't have to worry about us leaking secrets!"
Xiao Ran said politely.
Of course, this is just a show.
There are so many secrets hidden in this tomb that are so important!
As long as it is beneficial to himself and can bring benefits to the country, how can he keep secrets from the Skull and Bones Society!
However, the people or institutions who learn these secrets must keep them strictly confidential, and the number of people who know the information must be strictly controlled.
A few people who make decisions only need to know about it, and the others only need to execute it. They don’t need to know the source of the intelligence!
While talking, David suddenly said:
"Does the secret compartment hidden behind Taft's portrait in the lobby on the first floor still need to be opened?"
Xiao Ran looked at him, then shook his head and said:
"It's not necessary. Whether to open the secret compartment or not is up to Christopher and the others. We don't have to care."
"We will discuss this matter before making a decision. It is not yet certain whether it will be opened or not."
Christopher continued.
After chatting for a while, he put away the letter left by Taft, put it back in the envelope, and put it back in the box.
Since Xiao Ran and David were present, for confidentiality reasons, he did not open the rolled-up sheepskin map, but covered the oak box.
Immediately afterwards, he covered the box containing the corpses of the Angsa people.
But how did he know that Xiao Ran could clearly see everything on that sheepskin map!
