332. Chapter 329: The Floating Body
On the second day after Dongfang Xue'er stayed in Room 1011 of the Hakodate Restaurant as a hostage, Dongfang Biluo and Yamato Ayako followed Liu Yan and Qin Yafeng back to the Tianyue Dynasty to carry out the follow-up process of the trading contract; On the same day, the three lords of Yamato Castle contacted some of the more powerful nobles in Yamato Castle to gather at the Yamato Castle Mansion to discuss the distribution of 200 floating light bodies - this is a team with a lot of combat power, if it can cooperate well with the contractors, it will become another sharp force in Yamato Castle in addition to the Contractor Corps!
There were exactly ten people here: three city lords and seven nobles; Although it is a nobleman, it is only a nobleman before the era of the Alien Ghost, and in the current world, in addition to being more powerful than ordinary families in terms of wealth and power, there is no more real power; Even before Dongfang Fan brought light, these families who claimed to be nobles were all confined to their respective regions, and they did not have any merit in assisting in the establishment of Yamato Castle.

It was also such a group of people, after seeing the potential of the development of Yamato Castle, that began to gradually ask to enter the office of Yamato Castle and ask for the authority of the city lord half a year ago, but they were rejected by Dongfang Fan by means close to suppression, and only reserved the right of these nobles to participate in important meetings.
"This time, I was able to harvest two hundred floating light bodies for Yamato City from the Tianyue Dynasty, mainly due to the three city lords, but the three city lords have been cultivating the contracting corps for the past year, and have been paying attention to the movements of the strange ghosts day and night, so he really shouldn't be distracted by these two hundred mechs, so our seven nobles plan to contribute their own efforts to share the worries of Yamato City, and train the two hundred mechs into usable combat power as soon as possible, and we will definitely be able to do our part for the city protection war in the future!" Tezuka Kagami, a politician before the Alien Era, is now one of the seven nobles of Yamato Castle and has always been the representative of the seven nobles.
"Tezuka-kun, your appetite is too big, isn't it? All of a sudden, I wanted to include all the floating light machines as the nobles' own...... In the negotiations with the Tianyue Dynasty, you don't seem to have contributed at all, right? "Yamato Naohito is straightforward and fast-talking, and he doesn't like to speak in a roundabout way.
"The words of the city lord of Naohito are too obvious, our seven nobles and Yamato City are one and the same, the pilot of the body needs to be trained, the maintenance of the body needs funds, and the place where the body needs to be used in the future to protect the city, we will naturally not shirk our responsibility, it can be said that although these bodies are handed over to us, in fact, they exist for the entire Yamato City." Tezuka Mirror smiled very freely, and the seven nobles secretly basically reached a consensus: it is better to offend the Yamato brothers than to offend the third city lord.
Naohito Yamato was about to slap the table and get up, but was held down by Yamato Ryuichi.
"The floating light body does have a lot of value, its scientific and technological content is very high, not to mention how long it takes us to really control it in Yamato City, just saying that its strict requirements for the driver are enough to give us a headache, you should also take this layer of factors into account while striving for the interests of your own family, otherwise the empty organism is not as affordable as paying for a gilded model...... Moreover, as Mr. Dongfang, who has won all the credit this time, I believe that his words are the key to the final ownership of this batch of bodies, Mr. Dongfang, now that the situation has become clear, what do you think can only be explained. "Yamato Longyi has considerable confidence in Dongfang Fan: this person will definitely not consider his own interests in the meeting, but from the perspective that is most beneficial to Yamato City, this is Yamato Longyi's further understanding of Dongfang Fan in the past year.
Nine pairs of eyes all converged on Dongfang Fan who was sitting in a wheelchair at this time-
"I can agree to the proposal of the Seven Nobles...... Even, I don't think the Tianyue Dynasty will be limited to this one transaction, and the future body can also be handed over to the seven nobles to distribute...... But...... In a year's time, I will march to the area north of Yamato Castle with a regular army of floating light machines...... Exorcise the strange spirits and bring the entire Hokkaido region into the confines of Yamato Castle. Dongfang Fan thought about it for a long time, there was no news about the item he wanted to look for, and if it was only confined to one Yamato City, it would be impossible to gain anything at all.
Therefore, Dongfang Fan wants to unify Hokkaido first, and then settle down the northern part of Hokkaido, and then start to head to Dongying Main Island to find the items he needs - ten years seems like a long time, but if he really wants to achieve the goal in Dongfang Fan's heart, he really can't say if it is enough.
Dongfang Fan's words made the two sides of the conference have their own hidden worries: the seven nobles obtained the body as they wished, but they faced the dangerous situation of having to go on the expedition a year later; And although the Yamato brothers can't absorb the floating body, they don't have to worry about the nobles taking things and not doing things - it can be said that Dongfang Fan's determination not only gave up his own interests, but even threw the interests of the seven nobles out of the clouds.
"Going north in a year? This...... Isn't it a little anxious......" Tezuka said slightly, it was not easy for him to refuse, after all, Dongfang Fan's determination did not threaten the interests of any party, at most he did not take into account the interests of any party.
"In a hurry? I even think it's too slow...... It took more than a year for the form of the strange ghost to change from the original bat form to the evil demon form, and now a year later, the strange ghost in the form of a dragon man has appeared, and if we just defend it and don't fight back, maybe one night in the future, while you are still asleep, a new type of strange ghost will come to Yamato Castle with unrivaled power, and then ...... We all have to die. Dongfang Fan sneered, he would keep the right to participate in the meeting of these nobles not because he was afraid of them, but because he was waiting for this moment and making them pay their due responsibility.
Yamato Ryuichi looked at the representatives of the seven nobles from the side, all of them looked contemplative, and said very seriously: "The performance of the monarchs has disappointed me. ”
"Mr. Dongfang is from a foreign country, he didn't come to Dongying for personal interests, not even for national interests, he only brought one kind of belief, that is-to drive away strange ghosts!"
"And the one who benefits from this is the whole Dongying, and even all of you here! Without Mr. Dongfang, perhaps Yamato Castle would have been destroyed in the chaos of war when the strange ghost first transformed into the form of a dragon! Looking at the current Yamato City, more than half of the impregnable Yamato Castle is the credit of Mr. Dongfang! And the princes are still playing with rhetoric here for the benefit of their own families...... I just opened my mouth and closed my mouth to do my duty, and now when I hear that I am going to send troops, I am silent? ”
"Can't we even have the backbone to save the country? Even if you magnify the interests of the family a little bit and fight for the interests of the country, you will not make such a joke in front of Mr. Dongfang today! Yamato Ryu's righteous words made the representatives of the seven nobles blush, and they felt embarrassed.
"The City Lord of Long Yi has said too much...... It's not that we're reluctant to send troops, we're just thinking about how much energy our family can control...... It is naturally a good thing to send troops to recover the territory occupied by the aliens, but you can't blindly agree, after all, the human resources of Yamato City are very limited...... "Tezuka Kagami straightened his face and wanted to say good things for the aristocratic side.
"I still say the same thing, as long as you seven nobles can train the mechs to the point where they can send troops within a year, then I don't interfere with how you want to distribute these two hundred mechs...... As for the remaining mechs, they were assigned by the samurai corps of the Naohito Castle Lord to ensure that all the mechs could be used to the fullest extent...... In addition, I will hand over to you the method of ability stimulation, how many bodies you can obtain if you can provide manpower that meets the conditions of the pilot......" Dongfang Fan does not think that ordinary non-capable people can control the floating light machine, after all, he is one of the first people to see the function of the floating light machine.
And now Yamato Castle has been able to obtain enough materials from the alien to activate the ability, in fact, the samurai regiment under the command of Yamato Naohito has already started the process of ability activation half a year ago, and now, more than 10,000 people in the second corps and samurai regiment of Yamato Castle are all superpowers.
The meeting finally ended in Dongfang Fan's resolution, and the seven nobles all returned to their territories with the method of supernatural stimulation given by Dongfang Fan.
Seven days later, 200 floaters were officially allocated: 20 for each of the seven nobles, and finally the 60th for the samurai of Yamato Naohito.
However, the training progress of the floater was quickly hindered: the machine was too large, and even if it could be controlled, it did not have a large enough space for training, and the only option was to train in the ice.
On the first day of trying to train on the ice field, Dongfang Fan personally watched from the city wall, and it happened that at this time, Saito Rie took Dongfang Xueer to go shopping around Hakodate, walked up the city wall, and met Dongfang Fan-
"Sister Cher, come on, this is Mr. Dongfang, the third city lord of Yamato City that I mentioned to you, Mr. Dongfang, Mr. Dongfang is also from China, and it is more coincidental that he is also surnamed Dongfang like Sister Cher, and this Miss Jiang Mina next to her is the daughter of Mr. Dongfang......" Rie Saito has been quite familiar with Dongfang Xueer these days, both of them live in Yamato Castle in the same capacity, although Saito Rie already knows that Tensaifu no longer exists, but for her, she can only feel the value of her life by staying by Mr. Dongfang's side- Neither Tensaifu nor the Saito family could give her such a sense of belonging.
"Mr. Dongfang, when we first met, I was sent by the Tianyue Dynasty...... Burst~! When Dongfang Xue'er was introducing herself, Dongfang Fan turned around, and the mask on the latter's face directly provoked Dongfang Xue'er to cover her mouth and laugh.
"Quite a bold reflection...... You know, I've been wearing this coquettish mask for more than a year...... No one has ever dared to smile so boldly in front of me......" Dongfang Fan's tone was serious, but the expression under the mask was a relaxed smile.
"I'm sorry, it was Cher who was rude...... Can't I compensate Mr. here......" Dongfang Xue'er forced a smile and apologized.
"Hehe, Miss Xue'er doesn't need to be like this, my father is hypocritical, with his mask, it is not normal to keep not smiling...... It took me a long time to get used to. Jiang Mina rubbed the mask on Dongfang Fan's face with her fingers and smiled very shamelessly.
"Roar——!!!
Discordant voices suddenly broke into this humorous and brisk conversation—only to see that in the ice domain, the dragonman and the strange ghost who were originally trapped by the dual laws of ice and wood suddenly broke free of the power of the two laws, knocked all the floating light machines trained on the ice domain into the air, and flew in the direction where Dongfang Fan was.
"Ding~~~~!"
At the same time, Dongfang Xue'er bloomed with holy light, which made the approaching dragonman and strange ghost even more manic......
