BXBX NOVEL Chapter 148 Get Those Rocks!
My mind was split in two at that moment.
One part was truly curious about the story behind the famous Elder Chen Jian that even had his final battle kept behind the classified information wall! Without a doubt, his final battle was hair-raisingly exciting and probably also heartbreakingly tragic.
I needed to get my hands on that story!
However, the other part of my mind was truly desperate to know why the hell was my ranking so embarrassingly low.
Not only did I not leap ahead any the second years, I was even way below the halfway mark within the first years.
It was impossible for my achievements to not get any points!
By that point, I had:
Saved Emma.
Saved her again from Elizabeth.
Broke records in the entrance exams
Scored an extremely high RPL
Became a damned member of Blood Moon!
Protected myself and the Whitefrost kids against an ambush by a WHITE MECHA and tens of blues!
Won the damned Grand Melee!
Landed three hits on the class instructor!
Finished first by myself in dismantling the mecha!
"Where are all my points!" I remember raging internally against the academy.
Knowing that you truly and definitely were entitled to more, and then discovering that you merely received a fraction of it was a terrible feeling indeed.
Indignance welled up in my heart and I was prepared to march into Bruce Pang\'s office to demand justice!
At that moment, however, a few of my friends came over.
"Hey guys. What are your ranks?" Olivia Summers asked as she broke away from her group to join us. "I\'m ranked 25,878th."
"Whoa. Nice. We\'re quite close. I am ranked 25,907th." Jack Yang said in a pleased voice.
As he should be. 907th in our batch was an extremely high rank in that collection of Dragons and Phoenixes.
And Olivia Summers was actually ranked extremely high.
I had no idea how they calculated her points, but her score was truly a surprise for me.
"I\'m 27,071st." Roland Hu said sourly.
"That\'s still above average. You should be proud!" Barrick Rui patted him on his back.
"Easy for you to say. You\'re probably ranked in the top thousand as well. What\'s your rank anyway?" Roland Hu asked him.
"29,552nd." Barrick Rui replied serenely.
All of our jaws dropped.
"That\'s… that\'s…" Roland Hu sputtered.
"You\'re almost dead last. What the hell? Why is your rank so low?" Jack Yang asked with a frown.
"I didn\'t get a mecha in the Grand Melee." Barrick Rui replied. He looked as though he had completely accepted his fate, and was at peace with his horrendous rank.
As one of the very active participants who very efficiently prevented hundreds of kids like him from accessing mechas, I could only give a soft and awkward laugh at his words.
"Hot damn. You\'re a victim of the ruthless bastards who attacked all those kids before they could reach their mechas? Those kids are too much!" Roland Hu shouted passionately.
"Yeah. They truly are too much!" Olivia Summers said with a wide, mischievous grin on her face. "Tell me, what would you do if you got your hands on one of those ruthless bastards?"
"That sly little trouble maker!" I thought as my eyes bulged incredulously at her clear provocation.
But of course Roland Hu bit onto the bait completely, hook line and sinker.
"I will teach him a lesson he will never forget! Big bro Barrick will lead the way, of course since he has the biggest beef against that person. And followed by big bro Justin since he\'s a walking armored tank. And then brother Jack and I will help them by kicking his head in!" Roland Hu declared.
Oh yes, that Roland Hu is a person who truly knew his place and lived out his role to perfection.
At ten years old, he already knew that he would lead no clique, and that his role was to support.
And so even though he bought Olivia\'s bait whole, he wasn\'t truly caught in a dilemma caused by his own words.
But Olivia continued on her self given mission to try and get me beaten up without a moment\'s hesitation.
"Excellent! I know one ruthless bastard that did exactly that. In fact this ruthless bastard actually robbed me of my mecha before the start of the Grand Melee too! Shall we teach him a lesson together?" Olivia Summers asked my bunkmates passionately.
"YES!" Roland Hu roared.
"Let\'s teach that bastard a lesson." Jack Yang nodded, righteousness shining out from his eyes.
Even Barrick Rui, who was usually too lazy to do anything, started to nod eagerly.
I sighed.
"Alright! Follow my lead! Attack whoever I am attacking!" Olivia Summers cried out.
"Let\'s go!"
And without further ado, she turned and then leapt on me with a shrill, excited laugh!
"Beat this ruthless bastard up!" She laughed loudly as her body smashed onto mine and caused me to lose balance and fall down.
My three bunk mates stared at us in shock for a split second before hooting with glee and started to beat me up as well!
"Hey! Hey! I was only doing what I thought was best in that situation!" I cried out as I tried to block them as gently as I could.
"Don\'t punch him! His skin is too thick! Grab those rocks over there and beat him up using them!" Olivia Summers ignored me completely and cried out.
"What? Rocks? Are you guys crazy!!" I yelled loudly.
But they scrambled to get the rocks and quickly returned with a huge armful of them, sinister grins plastered on their faces.
"Attack!!" Roland Hu howled excitedly.
As one, they laughed out loud and pounced on me!
"Hey! What are you guys doing?" Tes shouted as she burst through the crowd to reach our position.
Similarly, the two Wang girls and the Long trio reached us at the same time as well.
My dumb bunkmates\' loud battle cries had attracted a lot of attention, and most of our schoolmates were already staring at us and preparing to watch a good show.
