Evolution: Start AS A Raft

"Raine, although you are qualified to enter the Gate of Hell, you are too late. We can't change anything, we are out of hope. Don't struggle pointlessly anymore." After finishing her words, the girl turned around to go back through the large door.

As the door closed again, a long sigh was heard from the girl in the darkness.

"If you had appeared four hundred years ago, perhaps we would have had a chance, but now... Ah, all our efforts are just struggles before death." Saying this, the girl walked toward the depths of the darkness.

However, at this moment, a beam of light suddenly lit up in front of her. The door was actually pushed open! The girl turned around in astonishment, looking at the man and dog standing at the doorway.

"You...you, what are you doing here!" The girl's eyes were full of confusion.

At the entrance, the man said indifferently, "Little girl, you're wrong!"

The man walked slowly into the door, and his Labrador followed him without hesitation. Whether the road ahead was filled with dangerous mountains, fiery seas, or deep abysses, as long as its master did not stop, it would not stop.

"I will never give up until the last moment! In this life, my fate can only be in my own hands!"

At this moment, the heart of the Elf of the World Tree trembled. Could it be, she had been waiting for four hundred years, just for this man?!

............................

The road ahead was pitch-black, but next to the Elf of the World Tree, there was always a faint green light enveloping the two and the dog.

"Raine, once you take away the Wood Heaven Crystal, not to mention the Sea God's rage will engulf the entire world, just saying when you take the Wood Heaven Crystal, the Sea God himself will not spare you first, he will snatch your Wood Heaven Crystal!" The Elf of the World Tree said as they walked, "So you must be fully prepared. Your current form as the son of the Sea God is not fully formed yet. I still have some Sea God Fruit here. This is our last chance."

Raine, following behind her, casually said, "Forget about the Sea God, even 108 fully formed Childs of the Sea God would be enough for me to handle. So, Elf sister, the Sea God Fruit you're giving me better be powerful."

"This... I can't confirm the properties of the Sea God Fruit, it all depends on your luck." The Elf shook her head, "Or rather, it depends on the luck of all humanity."

On the way, Raine saw numerous large intertwined branches in the huge space in front of them, leading to an abyss.

Among those intertwined roots, he could vaguely see a giant figure, hundreds of meters tall, trapped within them.

From the branches around, there were countless human figures bound by the branches into mummy-like knots of wood.

"Elf sister, is that giant the Sea God? And those in the knots of wood, are they the sons of the Sea God?"

The Elf girl stopped and turned to look at Raine with a frown, "Hey, you, why do you keep calling me the Elf sister? I'm much older than you!"

Raine chuckled. The World Tree was only a little over four hundred years old, which was still younger than him.

Of course, Raine had no intention of explaining the details to the elf sister.

"I called you that because you look so cute. Should I call you Elf Granny?"

The elf covered her mouth and giggled, "Why are you so glib? I thought you were a serious man. Forget it, I won't argue with you, it's meaningless anyway. Yes, the ones in there are indeed the Sea God and his sons. Restraining them has already consumed too much of my energy. Without the Wood Heaven Crystal, I wouldn't be able to do it."

Raine nodded. It seemed that once he took the Wood Heaven Crystal, these terrifying creatures would break free from the restraint of the World Tree. So, he had to defeat them!

After following the elf for an unknown amount of time, the two finally arrived at their destination.

The elf finally stopped in a room formed by entwined roots, "It's inside. Every time I bear fruit, I only allow my messenger to announce a very small amount of fruit news. I hope to attract more capable people to the World Tree through this method, to find the person I'm looking for. However, after all this time, you are the only one I've waited for."

Raine didn't say anything, just looked at the room. With a wave of the elf's hand, the roots clustered there came to life, slowly opening a hole.

"Go in, what kind of Sea God Fruit you can find, it's up to you." The elf said.

"What if I eat a few more?" Raine suddenly asked, "I remember people saying that the body of the Child of the Sea God can endlessly consume Sea God Fruits."

"Eat more? Raine, do you think this is ordinary fruit? Although these Sea God Fruits are of no use to me and the body of the Child of the Sea God can indeed withstand a large number of Sea God Fruits, it's useless for you to eat more. The body of the Child of the Sea God is after all not the Sea God himself, your limit is the stage 10 level 10. I've looked at your situation, you can eat at most four more."

Raine frowned, "Is there no possibility of a breakthrough?"

"There is a possibility, but among all the Childs of the Sea God, only one can break through to stage 10 level 10, and that one is now being trapped by me."

Raine immediately understood. The exception that the elf was talking about was the Sea God himself. As long as he was around, the other Childs of the Sea God would always just be Childs of the Sea God.

"Raine, after you go in, I will lock you in. If you can't break my restraints on your own, it means you can't defeat the Sea God and his many children."

Raine didn't argue, he nodded and walked into the root house, "Alright, I understand."

After Raine and White entered the root house, the elf girl stood at the door for a long time, saying in a trance, "It's impossible... unless you eat all the strongest Sea God Fruits, you won't be able to fight the Sea God and the 108 sons of the Sea God... What are you so stubborn about?"

……………………

Raine was frightened by the sight in front of him.

"Damn, White, we're rich! So many Sea God Fruits?"

In front of him and White, there were hundreds of Sea God Fruits piled up! What's more astonishing was that all these Sea God Fruits were brightly colored.

From previous experience, these bright, slightly glowing colors indicated—these Sea God Fruits were all top-tier!

"Damn, I've searched several oceans and only got a few pitiful ones. So, the World Tree had all the good stuff!"

Raine had already consumed five Sea God Fruits before, and his current level was stage 6 level 10, eating four more would bring him to stage 10 level 10.

"Heh, the World Tree is not omniscient after all, the little girl didn't expect that my biggest capital is not the body of the Child of the Sea God at all." Raine laughed sinisterly.

"Activate the system! By the way, I remember that my system can erase previous mutations!" Raine's eyes shone with excitement.
