Lu Ping'an had pondered what the other side of the vortex might be like, but once he actually stepped into the Octopus's world, he frowned.
The skin of the Fishman life forms was quite special, not only sensitive, but it also allowed them to "taste" using the sensory organs on their surface, and upon just arriving in the Exotic Realm, Lu Ping'an's nervous system responded with a strong urge to vomit.
This was the Fishman "tasting" the water, and this body of water was clearly not suitable for this ethnic group to live.
In fact, the catfish over there were really vomiting.
"Could it be that I've made the sensory system wrong? No, that can't be right, I used the Fishman template from Mercury 42. It can't be that it smells foul to them but fragrant to me. We're not dogs..."
