Hua City, Yingtong Street.
On the side of the street, on the non-motorized vehicle lane, a young girl with a pleasant face and a look of fatigue in her brows was riding a shared bicycle towards the old stadium.
The young girl was Hua Xieyu.
The University City was about twenty kilometers away from the Old Workers' Cultural Square where the old stadium was located, and the presence of the swimming pool had long been erased from various map software.
Unfamiliar with the area, Hua Xieyu followed the only place name given on the advertisement flyer, walking and asking for directions, and it took her nearly two hours to reach the vicinity of her destination.
During this time, she experienced the awkward situation of no online car-hailing orders being accepted for over ten minutes and several taxi rejections.
As she got closer to the address given on the flyer, her heart grew more and more uneasy, and a strange, kind reminder from a certain taxi driver kept flashing in her mind—
The taxi driver who reminded Hua Xieyu was a middle-aged man in his early forties. Besides being a bit overweight, he was quite tall, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, looking very energetic.
"Hey! You're going to that ghost place? Are you also one of those people who can get rid of urban legend?"
For some reason, upon hearing that Hua Xieyu was going to the swimming pool at the old stadium in Hua City, this taxi driver didn't show the expression of someone who had seen a plague god and refuse the ride without hesitation, like other taxi drivers. Instead, he seemed a bit excited.
Why did he say "also"? Hua Xieyu thought in confusion, frowning, "I'm not."
She had a relatively clear understanding of her own capabilities; dealing with a physically strong ordinary person was already a bit difficult, let alone a genuine urban legend.
In places like Liming City and Xiang Niangzi Cave, her ability to become a Psychic was already an accidental result of various coincidences. There was no chance for her to go any further.
"Then I'm sorry," after hearing Hua Xieyu's answer, the taxi driver's attitude immediately did a complete 180-degree turn. "I can't take you there. That ghost place is haunted by urban legend, it's very evil."
"urban legend?" Hua Xieyu tilted her head. "What kind of urban legend?"
"Well, there are many rumors." The taxi driver thought seriously and listed them off like precious possessions. "Some say that years ago, the swimming pool was poorly managed, and a young girl drowned inside and became a water ghost, wanting to drag people down with her..."
"Some say that when the swimming pool was renovated years ago, a tomb was unearthed, disturbing the spirits of the dead. Although the tomb was dealt with promptly, the news was suppressed, and the renovation was completed, since then, the water in the pool at midnight every day turns into foul-smelling sewage..."
"And some people on overcast mornings hear the crying of a young girl from the abandoned swimming pool, and some have seen strange people with rabbit heads wandering in the empty, dirty outdoor swimming pool, constantly talking to themselves, as if speaking to something invisible, and..."
The more the taxi driver spoke, the more excited he became, and the more Hua Xieyu listened, the more she felt a chill run down her spine. Finally, she couldn't help but interrupt, "Stop, stop! Why are you so knowledgeable about the urban legend incidents in that place?"
It feels like those urban legend are your neighbors, Hua Xieyu thought.
"It's a bit embarrassing to say," the taxi driver smiled. "Besides being a taxi driver, I'm also a urban legend radio host. My hobby is collecting and organizing urban legend legends."
"If you weren't unsure about dealing with the urban legend there, I would really want to take you and follow along to see!" "Oh, right! This is my business card. It has my live stream channel number, WeChat public account, and submission email."
"If you encounter anything interesting when you go to that swimming pool, you can submit it to me. It's paid!" Hua Xieyu,
In this world, there are always so many people who like to court death.
Doesn't this Uncle Driver worry that one day he might actually encounter a urban legend incident? Hua Xieyu thought, silently taking the business card and looking down at it.

After reading the content of the business card, she frowned. When she looked up again at the taxi driver, the car had already driven away, and only a yellow and green outline remained in her sight—
Hua City, old stadium, swimming pool changing room.
What kind of urban legend entity core could affect the Eclipse Society President's strange ability? Miss Rabbit finally couldn't help but ask the doubt in her heart. After hearing the definite answer, her eyes widened. "You mean this thing is the urban legend entity core of a Parasitic Kindred Abomination?"
Suo E nodded expressionlessly, then immediately shook his head, correcting, "To be precise, it should be a specially modified Parasitic Kind urban legend entity core."
Upon hearing this, Miss Rabbit's face instantly showed fear and disgust. Her body trembled slightly as if she had been electrocuted. Her hand loosened, and the metal-like urban legend entity core fell to the ground with a "clang."
Catching sight of the urban legend entity core rolling to her feet, she quickly retreated a few steps, creating distance.
If she could choose, Miss Rabbit would even prefer to stay with Twilight Woman or Disaster rather than with a Parasitic Kindred Abomination.
Maybe I've already been Parasitic Kinded just now? This thought flashed through Miss Rabbit's mind, and her body trembled again—
Parasitic Kind urban legend, although rare in number, can be considered the most detested existence among the currently known types of urban legend.
Because their hunting process is very secretive, by the time the host discovers it, there is often no room for recovery. Although some other types of urban legend may also have Parasitic Kind traits.
But the difference is, the ultimate goal of other urban legend parasitism is to devour, while Parasitic Kind after invading the target's body will gradually reach an irreversible symbiotic state with it, finally completing fusion and assimilation.
In the process of reaching a symbiotic state, Parasitic Kind urban legend will use various methods to make the host dependent on them, either by helping the host improve their strength, satisfying the host's desires, or creating false illusions to make the host indulge in them.
After the symbiotic state is reached, they will enter the assimilation stage. In this stage, the Parasitic Kind urban legend will continuously integrate the advantages of the host's original Spirit Mark, urban legend entity core, black night disease, and other Spiritual Energy sources, eliminate the disadvantages, and finally give birth to a new Parasitic Kind urban legend with more powerful Power.
Then,
It is the sublimation stage. As the host's life force is exhausted, the new Parasitic Kind urban legend will quickly detach from the host and begin searching for the next host.

The entire process is somewhat like the spore reproduction of fungi.
Some urban legend researchers believe that Parasitic Kind cannot even be considered a separate urban legend type. From a certain perspective, they are more like urban legend entity cores with independent consciousness and the ability to reproduce.
Some foolish Psychic also believe that the process of Parasitic Kind urban legend fusing and assimilating with the host is like playing a fusion card in a certain card battle game, offering two materials to special summon a brand new urban legend.
As Miss Rabbit knows, a horrifying Calamity level Parasitic Kind urban legend attack incident once occurred in a small country in South America, resulting in the deaths of over a hundred thousand people.
The cause of the incident is unknown, only that from a certain period onwards, a strong fighting spirit suddenly arose within that small country, and a large number of "Psychic" with Spiritual Energy fluctuation levels around C-level emerged in a short time.
According to a survivor of the urban legend incident, those abnormally emerging "Psychic" seemed to appear out of nowhere overnight. He even once thought that his country was about to become the strongest country in the world.
However, just as flowers always wither quickly after blooming, soon those "Psychic" began to show abnormalities. They became increasingly lazy, or perhaps decadent and numb, losing interest in everything in the outside world, even food and water, as if only an empty shell without a soul remained.
During that time, the streets of that country were filled with people who were skin and bones, like mummies.
Until suddenly one day, those mummy-like people all "came alive" together, rushing onto the streets, either dancing wildly in strange postures, overeating, or wantonly destroying, like a carnival of venting primitive instincts.
Then, at a certain moment, those mummy-like people stopped moving almost simultaneously, like winding-up robots with their strings broken, and lost their life force.
Miss Rabbit had seen related influence materials in the Eclipse Society. The incomprehensible madness in the video had a spine-chilling visual impact, yet it also made people feel a longing, an urge to join in.
As the first batch of "Psychic" died out completely, more and stronger "Psychic" began to emerge, and then within a very short period, they again went wild and died on a large scale again.
After repeating this several times, the death toll quickly climbed to over a hundred thousand. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
And the Parasitic Kind urban legend that caused such large-scale destruction had a Spiritual Energy fluctuation level of only B-level.
According to the information within the Eclipse Society, there are even higher-level Parasitic Kindred Abomination, and their parasitic targets are not limited to humans or urban legend, but may even be just a certain concept
..."
In silence, Miss Rabbit stared intently at the urban legend entity core on the ground, not daring to act rashly.
She was unclear how the Calamity level urban legend incident in that small South American country was finally resolved, but since the Eclipse Society kept a large amount of related information, it should be related to the Eclipse Society.
Now, Suo E had taken out a urban legend entity core of a Parasitic Kindred Abomination, further proving her guess. If it was this kind of ghastly thing, perhaps there really was a way to deal with that Chairman whose ability sounded very strange? This should be considered a major killing weapon in the hands of the Elder Council, right? Miss Rabbit thought.
Seemingly sensing Miss Rabbit's unease, Suo E explained, "You don't need to be afraid. This Parasitic Kindred Abomination entity core has been modified and is different from those in the rumors. It won't indiscriminately choose hosts to parasitize."
"You should have said that earlier!" Miss Rabbit breathed a sigh of relief, took a few steps forward, bent down to pick up the urban legend entity core, and walked over to Suo E's side.
Just as she was about to hand the urban legend entity core back to Suo E, she heard Suo E continue, "After being modified, its parasitic ability and purpose are far more terrifying than the generally perceived Parasitic Kind urban legend. Hmm, those were the original words of the Elder Council."
That feeling was as if saying in a very calm manner: "Don't be afraid, what you have in your hand is not a firecracker, it's just a cannonball."
Hearing this, Miss Rabbit's expression darkened. With a "whoosh," she threw the urban legend entity core in her hand away and jumped forward in panic, trembling.
"Are you very scared?" Suo E asked. "Mhm!" Miss Rabbit nodded.
Nonsense! How could I not be scared in this situation?
One careless mistake and I'll become an incubation machine for some unknown Parasitic Kind urban legend! Miss Rabbit thought. ""Suo E was silent for two seconds, then sighed soundlessly, "Alright then."
Hearing the helplessness in Suo E's tone, Miss Rabbit suddenly came back to her senses, realizing that something was a bit off.
Moving her gaze, she saw that in her panic just now, her hands had actually wrapped around Suo E's neck, her long legs were draped over his arm, her body was held in his embrace, and if she looked up, she could see his pathologically pale but sharply defined profile—
It was a complete princess carry!
The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous. Pink bubbles seemed to float in the air, and even the dark red stains in the corner that emitted a foul odor seemed to become somewhat cute.
Miss Rabbit, "Oh, you! Could it be that he deliberately scared me so I would jump into his arms? This blockhead has finally wised up?" "Actually, you don't need to be afraid," Suo E said expressionlessly. "That urban legend entity core hasn't been activated yet."
"If possible, could I trouble you to get down? Like this, I'm a bit uncomfortable."
Miss Rabbit, ""
Does anyone know how to activate a Parasitic Kindred Abomination entity core? Contact me. I want to use an axe to split a crack in this guy's head and stuff that ghastly thing into his skull!
Just as Miss Rabbit clenched her little fists, preparing to use violence on Suo E, he suddenly said, "Of course, if you mind, it's okay if I hold you for a while, but we have to wait."
Someone is coming from outside, it should be Hua Xizhuang."
Hearing this, Miss Rabbit composed herself and spread out her Spiritual Perception, indeed capturing a faint Spiritual Energy fluctuation.
This swimming pool was once the place where Twilight Woman was suppressed. Even though Disaster is now the Huacheng Monster King and Twilight Woman no longer exists, urban ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) legend usually wouldn't come here.
Because of this, she and Suo E chose this place as their hiding spot after infiltrating Hua City. Flirting on the grave of the former Master while avoiding Disaster's eyes was simply too perfect!
Now, a faint Spiritual Energy fluctuation, appearing very untimely around the swimming pool, is very likely the target of this mission, Miss Hua Xizhuang.
Hmph! I didn't expect her to arrive so early?" Miss Rabbit said coldly. "Then let's go meet her."
