"Hold on!" 0
 
Lao Chen's voice crackled through the static, "We're decrypting Professor Lin's database and have discovered that 'It' fears a specific frequency of Sonic Wave... Wait, what is that?" 0
 
Suddenly, a piercing noise erupted from the walkie-talkie, causing Xu Rong's eardrums to throb painfully. 0
 
The little girl in his arms abruptly opened her eyes, her pupils expanding into a ghastly white. "They're coming... 'Its' messengers..." 0
 
The door to the fire escape was suddenly smashed open, and dozens of distorted humanoid figures surged in. Their bodies stretched like elongated clay, limbs twisting at impossible angles as they emitted inhuman shrieks. 0
 
Xu Rong pressed his back against the wall, raising the last syringe of sedative he had. Just then, he heard the roar of a helicopter overhead. 0
 
"Xu Rong!" 0
 
Lao Chen's voice came through the loudspeaker, "Cover your ears!" 0
 
In the next moment, a deafening Sonic Wave poured down from the helicopter. 0
 
Black slime began to bubble and evaporate, and the twisted figures let out agonizing howls before collapsing to the ground in convulsions. 0
 
Xu Rong felt as if his eardrums were about to burst, but he held tightly onto the little girl's ears. 0
 
The Sonic Wave lasted a full minute. 0
 
When everything settled down, Xu Rong saw only shriveled husks on the ground, as if all moisture had been drained from them. 0
 
"We found a way to deal with 'It'!" 0
 
Lao Chen's voice was filled with excitement. "Professor Lin's database records 'Its' weaknesses..." 0
 
Suddenly, the entire school began to tremble violently. 0
 
Xu Rong felt the ground beneath him start to collapse, black mist swirling in from all directions to form a massive vortex. 0
 
"No..." 0
 
The little girl in his arms let out a faint whimper, "It’s angry..." 0
 
Xu Rong looked up and saw a gigantic eye opening at the center of the vortex, its pupil shimmering with countless stars. 0
 
A deep voice echoed in his mind: 0
 
 
"You... are my new vessel..." 0
 
Xu Rong felt his consciousness being torn apart. The enormous eye stared at him, the starlight in the Pupil swirling into a vortex, as if it intended to swallow his entire soul. 0
 
The little girl in his arms suddenly convulsed violently, emitting an inhuman shriek: 0
"'It' is about to descend! Stop 'It' quickly!" 0
 
Lao Chen's voice came through the helicopter's loudspeaker: "Xu Rong, hold on! We are adjusting the Sonic Wave frequency!" 0
 
Xu Rong bit down on his tongue, using the sharp pain to stay awake. He saw countless Tentacles extending from the black vortex, each covered in glowing eyes. 0
 
The air was thick with a strong scent of the sea, mixed with an ancient, decaying odor. 0
"Accept me..." 0
 
That voice echoed in his mind, "You will gain Eternal Life..." 0
 
Suddenly, Xu Rong's phone vibrated. It was an encrypted file from Lao Chen, titled "The Truth About 'It'." He quickly skimmed through it, and his Pupil contracted sharply: 0
"It" was not an alien being but the oldest consciousness on Earth, existing in the deep sea long before humanity appeared. Professor Lin's team had inadvertently awakened "It" during deep-sea exploration and attempted to use Genetic Engineering to transfer its consciousness into a human body... 0
 
"Xu Rong!" 0
 
Lao Chen's voice suddenly became urgent, "We have found 'Its' core frequency! But we need someone to guide the Sonic Wave up close!" 0
 
Xu Rong glanced at the little girl in his arms, who was gradually losing consciousness, and then at the ever-growing black vortex. He knew he had to make a choice. 0
"Give me the Sound Wave Emitter," he said into the intercom. "I'll be the bait." 0
