"That's not right."
Alisa shook her head.
"Although it makes sense in theory, don't forget about the Dungeons. The diversity of species is fully represented inside them."
"Hmm..."
Alisa's words reminded Lan Qingyou of the Dungeons.
So was her guess wrong?
"Or... maybe the way it manifests is different?"
Lan Qingyou set down her Chopsticks and looked at Alisa.

Meanwhile.
On a coastal cliff somewhere on the New Continent, a temporary settlement was being built.
Beside it stood a familiar structure—the sunken Teleportation Plaza.
However,
