The NPC Got A System

14. Soloing The First Floor

Gasp!

Like getting struck by lightning, Nash got up from his lying position and blinked several times, unable to comprehend what had just happened. He told the system to buy him a rejuvenation potion from the game store.

Well, Nash just happened to know it because he saw another player who was injured from fighting and healed himself using that potion, but he did not know this potion would be so effective! His sore back from sleeping on the haystack even healed itself.

“Still, 7 HC for one potion is too expensive,” murmured him while stretching his stiff shoulder muscles.

Nash stood up and warmed up before looking around and seeing that he was left alone here. The second-floor door was closed and would not open again until he wiped out all the monsters here. Nash let out a plain laugh. “Hahaha, really? They didn’t even wait for me after I saved their lives from that 8-leg hairy monster?”

The remaining spider monsters, who noticed there were still living humans, started to come out from their web nest and surrounded Nash from all directions.

“Well, I guess there is no other option except kill them all.” His slender fingers ran through his hair, making it a neat, slick back style. “System, can you calculate how much exp, points, and coins I will get if I defeat all the monsters on this floor?”

[Calculation completed.

Total monsters on this floor:

4 adult spiders

5 young spiders

20 spider cocoons

Total exp received:

(230 x 4) + (120 x 5) + (20 x 20) = 1920 exp (Lv 7 > 8)

Total points received:

19 P

Total coins received:

(3 x 4) + (2 x 5) + (1 x 20) = 42 HC ]

Nash would not lie that he was weak in math, so he nodded in agreement with whatever the system said. “Hmm, you’re indeed a genius. So, all I need to do is beat them up and collect that legit exp, right?”

[Yes.]

“Alright, let’s do that. Can I use my new skill? Is there any limitation like the duration, maybe?”

[No, as long as you have enough MP to maintain it.]

Nash frowned at the system’s words for a while, ignoring the spider monsters creeping slowly to approach him in the middle. “Hmmm, I think I need to check something first. Open status window.”

“Check Web Blast skill,” repeated Nash, and another window opened with the detailed information of his new skill as long as with its advantage and disadvantage.

//

[ Web Blast Lv. 1 ]

You can shoot a web blast from your palm to immobilize enemies, control the crowd, and create a long-distance attack. The disadvantage of this skill is the limited use of the web. It started from 1km from the first level to infinite, depending on the skill level.

The cost of each attack using this skill is 9 MP.

//

“Heh,” scoffed Nash short. He knew he made the right decision of choosing the Web Blast as his skill rather than other offensive skill like Poison Nail. It was because Web Blast was a passive and versatile skill. He already has two offensive skills and needed a skill to support him from behind.

He had read all the information and closed the window with a voice command. Nash spent too much time reading his hologram window and forgot he was being surrounded now.

“Oops, gotta finish this quick.” His current main goal was to defeat all these monsters by reducing not much MP. He still needed it when he moved upstairs. Nash did not want to spend another coin for an expensive rejuvenation potion.

From where he stood, Nash quickly surveyed the room and identified which spider he needed to immobilize first.

(There!)

“Web Blast!” Nash used his Web Blast skill to immobilize the largest spider in this room and made it stumbled because of losing balance. He ended up burying the two poor young spiders who walked underneath it. Not waiting for that monster to get up and balance itself again, Nash ran fast toward it and landed a Blow Kick on its face.

BOOM!

The spider’s head exploded.

[You got 230 exp from defeating an adult spider monster.]

[You got 120 exp from defeating a young spider monster.]

[You got 120 exp from defeating a young spider monster.]

[You got total 3 points and 7 coins as a reward for defeating an adult spider monster and two young spider monsters.]

“Nice kick,” said him with a proud face before three young spiders chased him from a different direction with an angry expressions as if being mad because Nash killed their brothers. Well, he could not keep silent if those spiders tried to kill him in the first place, right?

A death or life situation like this made Nash remember about the shadow’s words that it dreamed of a survival-like game and not a slice of life, so basically, Nash was his pawn to satisfy his selfish desire.

SCHREEEEEE—

“Screw it. I’ll save Chi and Grandma, and then I’ll find that fucking shadow to give him a nice punch.” Nash dodged the sudden attack and slid underneath one of them. Then he used his kick to hold one young spider as a shield before pushing it hard to the other two until they crushed each other.

The painful scream coming out from those monsters made Nash cover his ears and move quickly from that place, but three giant adult spiders blocked him. They tried to intimidate him using menacing red eyes and purplish saliva poison coming out from their sharp teeth.

Nash would have been scared if he had not seen their fucking ugly face before, but now he just yawned while stretching out his arms. “Well, if I were you, I would not stand in that place for too long. It’s kinda sticky, you know, like some super glue.”

The giant spiders looked at each other before hanging their head down and saw that Nash had made a giant pool of web traps. He had used almost half a kilometer of his total Web Blast.

(Well, I can’t defeat all of them if I run out of MP, and I can’t waste more than this.)

SCHREEEE—!!!!

The giant spiders tried to move, but alas, all their feet had been engulfed in the web’s pool and could not escape easily. Of course, Nash would not let them escape from that pool because he had prepared a final attack to finish three of them in a single direct punch.

“I think I’m going to faint again after this fight,” murmured he murmured, clenching his right palm into a fist and repelling the skill.

“Blow Punch!”

BOOOOOOM!

Greenish fluid splattered all over the floor, and the cocoons, or it could be called soon-to-be newborn spider monsters, melted in heat because getting drenched by their dead parents' poisonous blood. Nash quickly evacuated himself near the second-floor door and waited until it opened.

[You got a total of 1450 exp, 16 points, and 35 coins as a reward for defeating three adult spider monsters, three young spider monsters, and 20 spider cocoons.]

[You have been leveled up from 7 > 8]

[Congratulation! You got a new title, “Web-Weaving Warrior”]

Nash suddenly blinked when hearing the cringe title that he got. He did not even have time to sit down after hearing it.

“What the heck?”
