I reffered to multiple issues I found the prob multiple times but no correct answer was given.

The correct answer has been given dozens of times. Your question relates to network routing.

If you want to access network services running in a VM from your LAN, you will need to bridge the VM network adapter.

If you want to access network services running in a VM from the Internet, you will need to bridge the VM network adapter, then forward a port from your router.

In the screenshot you show attempting to access 127.0.0.1. This is the local loopback network interface. Try using the LAN interface. This should allow you to access BeEF from the host operating system and other virtual machines in the virtual LAN.

If you want to access BeEF from other hosts in the LAN you'll need to bridge the network adapter in the virtual machine then restart BeEF.

My VM is now connected to the bridge network but after that in the first link I didnt understand anything. Like the things they did in the terminal

My VM is now connected to the bridge network

Now that the virtual machine network adapter is bridged you should be able to reach the BeEF server from other hosts on your LAN.
