Chen Shouyi keenly noticed that his skin was covered with layers upon layers of tiny scales, exceptionally dense, carrying a sinister beauty.
These scales are very small, indistinguishable to the naked eye.
Each is only about a dozen micrometers in diameter, roughly the size of a cell.
In fact, upon closer inspection, these scales are actually cells, each undergoing specialization, flattened, stacked like fish scales.
"Ordinary people shouldn't be able to see scales this small, right?" he thought to himself.
He touched them, and the sensation was tender and smooth, like a freshly peeled egg, without the slightest numbness, with a more sensitive touch than before.
This is because these scales are not purely a layer of keratin, but are filled with nerve clusters far more robust and dense than ordinary people.
"The difference between myself and humans is getting bigger and bigger!" Chen Shouyi muttered to himself.
