Chapter 1126 - Defensive Measures Of Tree Monsters & How To Counter Them
🕑 Added 2025-04-30 11:24:16 +0000 UTCHiding the majority of its body beneath the ground was honestly a good way for tree monsters to avoid getting attacked. Not the best way, but beings like that really needed anything they could get their branches on to deal with opponents able to inflict serious damage at long range.
It was definitely the biggest weakness of tree monsters. They tended to have far higher Vitality and Toughness as well as resource pools that not even Jake could compete with. Several incredibly powerful passive skills were also to be expected, though it all came at the severe cost of being unable to move. Well, move under regular circumstances.
It wasn’t odd for tree monsters to have some limited mobility options, especially upon reaching B-grade. More than mobility, Jake would call it relocation tools, though. Ways to either uproot themselves alongside a large piece of land, or perhaps the ability to teleport elsewhere.
They all had in common that they weren’t applicable to combat and took a lot of preparations, which meant that the tree needed to be able to handle opponents despite not being able to move.
There were many ways to do this, with four methods being especially common. The first one was to never get found in the first place. Illusory fog, formations, stealth... There were a lot of ways for a tree to hide itself, but if it were found, it needed one of the three other methods.
The second method was also straightforward: be impenetrable. Be so tough and have so many magical barriers defending yourself that your opponent simply couldn’t break through and actually deal any damage. Being immobile did mean the tree had plenty of time to make preparations, making the vast majority of them domain fighters, not unlike Miranda and all her witch-abilities.
Sometimes, the opponent had too powerful offenses, though, so some form of offense was needed, which was naturally the third method. Magic in all the forms one could imagine naturally came in here as the tree could learn whatever ranged spells it wanted to try to shoot down the attacker with what was effectively anti-air magic cannons. These anti-ranged fighter tools were also regularly deployed beforehand, making taking down a powerful tree monster a lot like assaulting a well-defended castle.
However, even the most well-defended castle could find itself in a situation where it had to move out and address opponents at times, which was where the fourth and final method could be found: summons. Trees could inherently grow and even create offshoots of themselves, making many develop skills to create clones or treant soldiers, something Jake had seen frequently when fighting tree monsters before.
Jake had considered what kind of defensive means the B-grade tree would have, and with it being a B-grade and all, it honestly shouldn’t have come as a surprise that the answer was all of them.
The entire island the tree lived on was covered by a fog that sought to obscure the tree from view, making it difficult to pinpoint where the actual monster was. Alongside this, the island was covered in hundreds of “fake” tree stumps of the reverse-growing tree, all of them hidden among all the other vegetation of the dense jungle.
These many fake trees weren’t just there to fool an attacker, though. All of them also served as focal points for powerful formations that the tree had likely spent decades, if not centuries, placing down as it grew and took over the entire island, where it was now the only life that remained.
Both defensive and offensive formations could be seen, and Jake also spotted signs of several hidden treant monsters spread around the island, all giving off an aura similar to the tree, which was why he didn’t consider there to be any life outside of the B-grade. These treants were just soldiers or drones without any real soul or mind of their own.
Now, Jake could understand why a B-grade like this would have confidence in themself. It was an impressive setup that would scare away many hopeful hunters from even attempting to attack, and if they did attack, chances were they wouldn’t get much out of it. Trees were also known to have an insane regeneration rate of energy as they could absorb mana directly from the ground, and their ability to get it from the environment surpassed something like a human’s several times over.
In many instances, the tree could regenerate faster than someone could deal meaningful damage, turning it into a waste of time for everyone involved. And as Jake looked down at the large island, he guessed this was also the conclusion the most talented C-grade hunters from the Pantheon of Life would make.
Artemis had shared that the Pantheon of Life tended to produce fighters with relatively lower than average offensive prowess due to their focus on life magic. This meant that the hunters who had attacked the tree in the past likely hadn’t been the best at damage dealing, and any life-affinity offensive magic they did use, the tree would be very resistant to. Being a tree and all.
All of these things definitely made the tree monster Jake was about to face incredibly impressive, but in truth, this wouldn’t be a fair fight at all. When it came to hiding, Jake had taken just a few minutes to find the main body of the B-grade, the fog covering the island having no effect in front of his supreme Perception stat, which even allowed him to Identify the tree despite it having a skill to avoid that happening.
[Grand Adansonia Lifeshaper – lvl ???]
Having located his opponent just meant Jake had to deal with all the other defensive means... except not really. Jake had no intentions of making this a normal fight in any way. He had confidence in winning by just setting up shop far up in the sky while raining down arrows, but that would take a long time. Long enough for other B-grades to perhaps get involved, including the Forest Fae... especially since Jake had no idea where she was.
After killing the lioness, he had flown by just to check her island and failed to spot her despite scanning the place with Pulse, meaning she had to be elsewhere. Her showing up after Jake had already burned through a lot of his resources could easily turn an otherwise safe situation hairy.
That’s why Jake had decided to handle this B-grade tree not solely as a hunter but also as an alchemist. That’s why Jake had made so much neurotoxin – or soul poison, as it was also often referred to as. Nearly all the advantages of the tree came down to its superior resource pools and ability to rely on the environment, so what would happen if Jake inhibited the B-grade’s ability to use its own energy while also turning the environment that supported it toxic?
Well, they were both about to find out.
Floating close to the upper edges of the atmosphere, directly above the island, Jake stood surrounded by nearly a thousand larger-than-normal bolts of arcana mana, all hanging suspended in the thin air. Inside each of these bolts was a reddish black liquid that had come straight from Jake’s veins as he’d bled out more blood for this attack than the average donor could give in their entire lifetime.... ten times over. At least.
Meanwhile, Jake also prepared his usual Eternal Hunger Protean Arrow, alongside roughly five hundred arrows coated in his Soul-Petrifying Shadow Poison. He stored all these poisoned arrows inside his quiver, ready to be unleashed after his initial strike.
In all the fights prior, Jake had expected a lot from his initial arrow, but this time around, all Jake aimed to do was destroy the defensive barriers shielding the island. Using his Protean Arrow as a wall-breaker did feel a bit odd, but Jake felt confident this was the best approach, and soon enough, all his preparations were complete.
Jake did a final Pulse and a scouring of his surroundings to see if the Forest Fae or any other B-grades were nearby before he decided it was go-time. Nocking his Eternal Hunger Protean Arrow, Jake took aim for the unassuming tree stump with just a few willow branches sticking out of it. It didn’t look like a B-grade, nor did it give off the aura of one currently, but Jake knew this was the true body of the tree.
After fully channeling his arrow, he let go as he let it descend. Right as he loosed the arrow, he also commanded all the bolts to fall before instantly taking out a poison arrow and shooting that, too.
In many ways, this opening salvo reminded Jake of the Ashen Phantom Devourer. Back then, he had also created a huge cluster bomb of arrows and even shot arrows down with varying power to ensure they would all arrive at the same time. Back then, Jake had done this simply by not pulling the string as hard to make the first arrows descend more slowly, but this time, Jake had a new trick up his sleeve.
Before his Protean Arrow even arrived, Jake had shot out thirty poisoned arrows, all falling with varying speed as the concept of time seemed to affect each one differently. The only thing they all had in common was that all of them would arrive at roughly the same time, give or take less than half a second, as even if Jake was pretty damn good at timing things, he had limits.
Far below, the tree didn’t notice the attack before it struck the barrier, likely also due to a lack of danger sense that most animals possessed. Jake watched as his arrow pierced through a thick barrier of dense energy, shattering it completely and sending out a shockwave of force that destroyed the entire barrier covering the island like it had been a fragile bubble of glass.
The arrow continued down into the trunk of the B-grade, penetrating deeply into the wood. It pierced over nine meters into the tree that stood only ten meters above the ground, and just as the B-grade likely thought the Protean Arrow was done doing its thing, Jake activated part two of the attack.
A wave of destructive arcane mana erupted from the Protean Arrow, destroying the tree from within and sending the mana down into the root network to ravage there, but perhaps most importantly, Eternal Hunger was freed from its Protean Arrow shell.
It wasn’t hard to guess what would happen when a mythical cursed artifact of hunger came into direct physical contact with a tree brimming with powerful life energy. The weapon instantly started going on the offensive without Jake even having to do anything, serving as a wonderful distraction as roots erupted from the ground and sought to extract Eternal Hunger before it could do too much damage.
This distraction meant the B-grade didn’t properly respond when the rain of arcane bolts fell upon the island. With the barrier destroyed, there was nothing stopping them from falling down like small meteors of arcane mana.
Only a few dozen were destroyed before reaching the ground, but that didn’t even matter. Jake had never intended for these bolts to explode, as instead, they penetrated into the soil, after which the bottom section quickly self-destructed, depositing the toxic blood into the ground below.
A moment later, Jake’s first wave of arrows also arrived. These had been aimed not at the main tree trunk of the B-grade, but at all the “fake” trunks it had spread throughout the island. These trunks were connected to the real one, and Jake hoped to either sever this connection or weaken it severely with a good dose of soul poison.
The arrows all struck true as they penetrated into twenty-eight trunks with utmost precision and timing. Jake had never stopped shooting arrows, and more were on their way as the tree finally began responding properly.
A lot had happened from Jake’s perspective, but in truth, only a few seconds had passed since the first arrow landed, and it wasn’t surprising at all that the tree had needed a while to get its bearings and formulate a response.
All across the island, magic lit up as runes covering the “fake” trunks gave off powerful mana. Vines and other plants erupted from the ground to block the incoming attacks, with some of them moving to pull out the arcane bolts stuck in the ground, likely believing they were the source of the ground rapidly turning toxic, and not the toxic payload they had come with.
Toward the center, around the true body of the B-grade, two dozen treants rose from the ground, all giving off respectable auras toward the peak of C-grade. Half of them shot into the sky from where Jake was shooting, while the other half stayed and tried to help address the damage Jake had already done.
The approaching treants weren’t even a concern to Jake, as it would take them too long to reach Jake for him to care. All he had to do was shoot around them as he continued bombarding the island below with shadow poison arrow after shadow poison arrow.
Below, the B-grade kept trying to respond as best it could, but it was dealing with a lot of things at once. The soil was poisoned and began seeping into its roots, its trunks were getting struck by arrows, sending an insidious poison into the tree's system, limiting its ability to mobilize energy, while a cursed spear had thoroughly embedded itself within the main trunk.
Meanwhile, Jake didn’t give the tree any chance to rest as arrows were constantly in the air, curving and flying at different speeds, hitting the tree again and again, no matter how much it tried to defend itself.
When he began to run low on shadow poison arrows, Jake even began to use Rain of Arrows liberally, splitting each arrow into a few dozen to blanket the island in arcane explosions. Shooting repeatedly, Jake soon chugged a mana potion, making sure he could keep going without slowing down in the slightest.
Jake’s entire upper body soon started to hurt as he had been shooting for several minutes straight with no breaks, releasing roughly ten arrows a second. While Jake didn’t count, a conservative estimate of how many arrows had been on the island exceeded three thousand... not counting Rain of Arrows. Factoring that in, the true number reached far into the tens of thousands, if not already above a hundred thousand.
This was also a great time for another lesson on how to deal with stationary monsters like trees. These kinds of monsters tended to fear alchemists or those who could use powerful toxins or curses that affected a large area, as it could potentially destroy their entire domains, thus weakening them. However, there was something one could do that was perhaps even more effective than corrupting the domain of a stationary monster:
Leveling it entirely.
Below, the island was no longer filled with a jungle, but had become a wasteland of pure destruction. Destructive arcane energy had blown up and disintegrated so much soil the entire root network of the tree was exposed, and as Jake continued to bombard the island, it was questionable if it would even qualify as an island anymore when Jake was done as the average elevation had definitely been lowered by several meters already.
The B-grade tree monster was durable. Strong. However, it was limited, and if the lioness could say she had met a terrible opponent in Jake, this tree had the right to say it had just encountered its natural predator: a ranged fighter with powerful toxins, able to nullify and counter anything the tree could do.
Jake's shadow poison, having done wonders in limiting the tree's energy movements, prevented it from properly defending itself against Jake's continued bombardment. Healing itself using its innate talents to absorb nutrients from the ground resulted in just poisoning itself even more, and while the B-grade did manage to dislodge Eternal Hunger from within its trunk, by the time it did, the damage was already done.
In many ways, this had never been a question of if Jake could kill the tree... just how long it would take.
The answer to which ended up being fourteen minutes and thirty-two seconds.
You have slain [Grand Adansonia Lifeshaper – lvl 355] - Bonus experience earned for killing an enemy above your level
Jake finally stopped shooting and took a moment after the notification appeared, before he realized he had indeed only gotten one. That is to say, no level-up from this kill, which was a bit disappointing.
A lot of arrows were also still mid-air and continued to fall upon the island, as Jake allowed himself to relax for a moment. He looked down and saw the island pretty much entirely destroyed by his attack, and Jake could sigh as he turned his head towards the island the Forest Fae usually occupied.
And then there was one.

"That’s why Jake had made so much neurotoxin – or soul poison, as it was also often referred to as." I'm pretty sure back when Jake was prepping for the Ashen Phantom Devourer fight poison designed to interact with the soul was called an ethtoxin, unless I'm mistaken or missing something here.

MilesTheCool
I believe neurotoxin is a form of ethtoxin, which specifically inhibits movement both physically and of energy, whereas the ethtoxin he used against indigo mushroom in late E grade directly delt soul damage. At least that's roughly what I believe the distinction was, could be mistaken.

Tftc: So glad i waited a month to start reading again.

Also all of this was packaged in nearly a thousand bolts of mana, each bolt containing between 3-4 pints of his blood. It would take the average doner about 4-6 months of donating to achieve just a single one of those mana bolts worth of blood:)
mucky 12
How many pints of blood did Jake use for his initial attack? "He bled out more blood for this attack then the average doner could give in their entire life time... ten times over" The average doner can donate about 6 pints of blood a year starting at the age of 16, which is when people can start donating. The average lifespan of the average US citizen is around 77 years old leaving us with 61 years of donating 6 times a year for a total of 366 pints in a lifetime or 45.75 gallons. Ten times over comes out to 3,660 pints or 457.5 gallons of blood. Which is enough volume to fill about 61 cubic feet of space. The closest to visualizing that amount of blood i could come up with is a about the size of your average car which takes up about 45 cubic feet of space. All of my calculations were probably flawed in some way but they were fun to come up with. Thank you for the chapter zogarth!

Ooooh what if it's the emberflight sacrificing a member who thinks they can win in order to get on Jake's good side, who possibly happens to live on Mars
Psyck0
I'm half expecting jake to unintentionally one shot his dragon of choice and just be confused how it happened
Blutako
I wonder if the dragon with be related to or associated with any existing characters, i mean high chances that it's a over confident or perhaps outcast dragon from the dragonflights, I would hate to see earths own frost wyvern go shortly after it evolves, especially since Jake talked some sense into it, but what about the idea of a dragon on another planet in the solar system, we have the B grade meteor tree phantom on the moon, i think the giant supervolcano on Mars would be an excellent place for a true dragon, sure fire and dragons are overused, but it's been a while since Jake has encountered anything hot enough to instantly burn away all his poisons and toxins, i want to see him come up with solutions to opponent that can either freeze the toxins in place to stop spread, or overcome intense heat, also a water dragon would be awesome because I want to see Jake finally find a perfect solution to underwater combat, i love when he surpasses barriers

Crafters don’t get levels for the use of the craft just the crafting itself. So when Jake makes the poison he gets xp but not when he poisons someone. It stops people from just buying op poisons and rushing through levels

Maybe Jake was responsible for Sycamore gap tree murder.

Or I suppose Zog has done some heavy foreshadowing of him fighting a natural B grade dragon. That would likely be one such battle.
Nick Elliott
I love how OP Jake is. And the journey we have been on for how he has achieved that OP status. I regularly enjoying his nonchalant dismantling of opponents. But a part of me is pining for another battle on the scale of the sword saint in their dual. Or miniaga in nevermore. Or valdemar in the collesium. Or the orange fuck. Or the false god. Yes rainbow feather sov was such a battle but he was heavily handicapped by being resource depleted and potion locked. I just can't see either the Fae which Jake has already said isn't as strong as the rainbow feather. Or the rainbow feather himself providing that level of challenge. I suspect only way I get a battle like that in these hunting grounds is if he gets to tangle with the lake dweller thing.
Thenais
Pretty sure the fae has gone to kill some random hunter to get the hell out of this planet
Nick Elliott
Correct me if I wrong. But he has so far not been issued evolution quests? Or am I imagining that? Something to do with he's a weird race varient and hasnt hit his natural grade yet?
Nathan Holliday
I’m so ready for him to hunt a dragon but I don’t think that will happen until pallet is completely healed and he is about to evolve to B-grade. I’m pretty sure it will be one of his evolution quests but we will have to see if he has completed it by the time he receives it.
Kaladin
Thought he might have gotten a level in alchemy. And there's two left, you still have a songbird which should be much easier the second time. However he'll probably have to deal with the flock as well.

Well tomorrow will be setup and prep, Friday will start the fight.... or at least the pre fight banter before the obvious cliff hanger. The fight will likely last the week for yet another cliffhanger. The following monday will then be a chapter from someone else's perspective, maybe Villy or Miranda before tuesday finishes the fight.

I think the moon ghost is peak B, and is the size of the moon. Probably either gonna be the last Monster at Level 149 ( with the help of the other humans, Arnold, Sword Saint) or the first after Jake goes B grade

TYFTC! Here's some typos, although some have mentioned a few already, figured I'd list them together: who Jake admittedly did not know where currently was. -> where she currently was. Using his Protean Arrow was a wall-breaker did feel a bit odd, -> as a wall-breaker After fully channeling his arrow, he let go as he let it descent. -> he let it go on its descent. (consider rephrasing perhaps?) exceeded three thousand... not count Rain of Arrows -> not counting Rain of Arrows Hope this helps.

"After fully channeling his arrow, he let go as he let it descent." --- doesn't sound right, especially the second part as it is just repeating itself. Maybe something like; After fully channeling Jake released the string allowing it to descend.

I have a feeling that perhaps the fae will be a surprise one shot
Sean
Oooo can he kill the moon creature now? That should be a fun little battle and he doesn’t need that threat in his backyard
Frederik
Plot twist he gets a secound notification for defeating the fae and a level up for that but the fae escapes befor he can actually kill here
ItsFin
If the PoL doesnt usually have hard hitters and this is a hunting ground where C grades are kinda punching up, they had to fill it with the weakest B grades possible. Ones that can hardly hit B grade and stop advancing right after, with only a decade or so of experience. A perfect hunting ground for elite C grades.
Xander
TFTC :) I'm guessing the Forest Fae is less of a houseplant than the rest otherwise this is gonna be a short fight. Suggested edits: "produce fighters with *relatively lower* offensive prowess" two comparative terms in a row. Should be "relatively low" or just "lower" "who Jake admittedly did not know where currently was." this is badly worded should be more like "whos location Jake, admittedly, did not currently know." "Her showing up after Jake had *always* burned through a lot " should be "already" "hunter but *as much* as an alchemist." Phrasing seems awkward. Maybe just "more" or "equally" instead? "entire lifetime.... *times ten over*." either "times ten" or "ten times over" " Using his Protean Arrow *was* a wall-breaker" should be "as" "he let go as he let it *descent*. " should be "descend" " as even if Jake was pretty damn good at timing things, *even* he had limits." repetition. Cleanest cut is just dropping the second "even" "only a few seconds had *happened* " should be "passed" "upper body *soon* started to hurt as he had *soon* been shooting" repetition. Ditch the second "soon" "not *count* Rain of Arrows" should be "counting"

It was call that because it was made out of ethash(idk if that’s the name) and was called ethotoxin because of the ingredient

I’m assuming when it says then there was one. We didn’t skip the sovereign? It’s just the final of the 9 interrupters ?

A great hunt! Hope the Fae can be used as a whetstone to upgrade another skill. She seems stronger, so if she can put up enough of a fight Jake might learn a thing or two from the exchange.

Two+ levels from the fae? It’s way older so surely it’s a higher level than the other B grades and probably a better variant of creature as well.
