I didn't touch the black box for the time being, just let it sit on the table, because no one but me knew that the contents had been taken.

Then I walked around the house a few more times and went through some papers.

There was nothing worth seeing, except for the gossip and a mess of cases, and the only useful information for me came from the population file in one of the cabinets.

I found in the population file the exact same bartender as Fesère, his name was Godot, a native of the Underworld, and he seemed to have nothing to do with the earthly world of Feseu.

Since they have nothing to do with each other, why do the two look exactly the same?

There must be a mystery hidden in this that I haven't seen through yet.

Seeing that the documents in this room could not bring any more useful information, I left the room and wandered around the ship's hall again.

I'm looking for the right person here to carry out my plan.

As I passed by the central area of the ship's hall, I noticed that the door to the conference room was open, so I flashed in.

Alas, it's good to have the blessing of the light array, I can break into any place casually, and no one can see me yet.

When I entered the conference room, I found that the old man in black I had seen earlier was also here, and in addition to him and me, there was also a middle-aged man with a short figure and a young man with a long beard.

The three of them were having a heated discussion, so I leaned in and listened.

At first, I only heard that they were discussing something called "Apocalypse", but as I listened to it, I became more and more confused, listening to what they meant, the meaning of their existence is to study this so-called "Apocalypse", but in fact, they themselves don't know what Apocalypse is.

These three people are all elders of the Shadow Brotherhood in the underground, the old man in black is called Runo, the middle-aged man with five short statures is called Jordan, and the young man is called Nobu, the three of them are the only remaining fruits of the Elder Brotherhood, and the remaining elders are either missing or died a few years ago.

One thing that those who died (with the exception of Teucer) had in common was that they had studied the black box for the three months before they died.

In their discussions, I also learned a few more information.

In fact, the "Shadow Brotherhood" is just a name given to them by outsiders, and they usually call themselves "Dark People", as for the sentence written in Lu En, it is actually a blessing that has been passed down from generation to generation by the Dark People.

It is said that before worshipping the King of the Yellow Coat, the Dark People believed in the Norse mythological god of darkness for a long time, and the eyes of the night were watching you, which means that Hodull would protect you in the dark. 、

The Rune script is a special language used by the Vikings to describe Norse mythology.

Speaking of the Council of Elders, the Council of Elders established by the King of the Yellow has two functions, one is to help him manage the daily affairs of the underground city, and the other is to allow these intelligent people who stand out from the crowd to comprehend the so-called "apocalypse".

I listened to it for a long time, and I didn't understand what this so-called apocalypse was, but from the speeches of the elders, I vaguely felt that the process of understanding the apocalypse seemed to be the process of questioning the king in yellow.

Because the young elder named Buno said that almost everyone found a problem in the process of understanding the apocalypse, that is, the king in yellow was not the only god in this world, let alone the creator.

This man spoke very white and rarely used such ambiguous words, so he was corrected by the old man in black, who said that it was only confirmed that the king in yellow might not be the creator, or that he may have used other god names before calling himself the "king in yellow".

Hearing the old elder's words, Bu Nuoming put on a sneering expression, but he didn't say anything more.

Later, they argued some more questions, and the more I listened, the more I felt that the meaning of the existence of the Apocalypse was to question the divinity of the King in Yellow.

That's a bit of a stretch to say.

In order to question himself, the king in yellow deliberately formed such an elders' council, what is the picture?

According to the elders, it was also the King of the Yellow who ordered the ship to be converted into the House of Elders, and this boat that was upside down in the shallow water was the only place that was not affected by the King of the Yellow Coat.

In other words, the ship acts as a barrier against the mind control of the King in Yellow.

The more I listened, the more confused I became, why did the King of the Yellow Coats build the House of Elders in such a place, just so that the elders could better fight against themselves?

Questioning and thinking, I gradually came to a seemingly strange conclusion that the King in Yellow seemed to be fighting against himself.

It's a pretty conclusion, but no matter what you think about it or which direction you think about it, the conclusion is exactly the same.

It's really weird to the bone!

Finally, let's talk about the black box.

From the day the Council of Elders was established, the King of the Yellow Coats had told the first elders that there was a box hidden in the hall that no one could open, and it also told the elders that the key to enlightenment was in that box.

So for so many years, every elder tried to open that box, but all of them failed, and what is even more terrible is that everyone who has been in contact with the box for a long time will die in the end.

In the black box, there seems to be some kind of curse hidden enough to devour life.

This is indeed in line with the characteristics of the Golden Back Bone Wat, not only these elders, but so far, except for me, who is particularly related to it, other people who covet it have not ended well.

The reason why the three elders argued so fiercely was because they had a disagreement on their understanding of the Apocalypse, these people did not know how to deal with the world by seeking common ground while reserving differences, but if there was a slight difference in the thinking of others from their own, it would be a violent quarrel.

They seem to be particularly fond of imposing their ideas on others.

In the course of these three debates, I carefully observed the performance of each one and also carefully analyzed their personalities.

In the end, I chose the youngest elder, Buno, who would be a key figure in my new faith.

Buno is the kind of person who is very calm, very organized, and extremely logical and analytical at all times, he is calm, but there is no lack of enthusiasm and energy, he is clearly organized, but he is full of questioning spirit, because his IQ is quite high, so the other two elders seem to have more respect for his views.

The most important thing is that this person's belief in the King of Yellow has clearly shown signs of wavering.
