Steel, Guns and the Industrial Party Across the World Chapter 369

The strong nausea and headache hit suddenly!

Hmm...it looks like vomiting!

The young man lying on the bed slowly opened his eyes.

A ray of light came into view, dispelling the endless darkness.

It's so dazzling! He subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands.

Uh... where am I?

The young man's mind was full of chaos, and his headache and nausea did not ease.

He shook his head, the pain in his head became more intense, but it made him wake up a little.

There was a shaky and blurred figure in front of him. There were other people here, and he subconsciously became alert.

"You're awake..."

It was a female voice, and the words were half joyful and half worrying.

"You are…"

Young minds are blank, where am I? who I am? Who is the person next to him?

There was a gentle touch on the head, and the female voice said worriedly: "Nathan, take a good look at me, don't you even recognize me?"

Nason? So familiar, ah, this seems to be my name.

Yes, my name is Nathan, and I'm a member of the Arcane...

Like rows of candles, all kinds of information lit up in the brains of young people one by one.

This woman is... He held back his headache and tilted his head to look.

The eyes gradually focused, and the blurry figure became clear.

"Well, mom...you are here."

"Huh, you are really worrying..."

The woman standing by the bed relaxed, and her tone was not as solemn as before.

Nathan asked, "How long have I been unconscious?"

"Together with the time on the ship, it's about a week?"

"A week? Why is it so long?"

"You've been hit on the head."

"It seems so... where are we?" Nathan felt the burning pain in his right cheek and temple.

"The secret base in Jiaowan is the one you set off from." The woman asked solemnly, "What happened to you, and how did you end up like this?"

"At that time our fleet..."

"I already know about the fleet's defeat. I was asking about your own situation. Edward's men said that when they noticed you, you were already passed out on the deck."

"Hmm..." Nathan closed his eyes, trying to recall the scene before he passed out.

"I can't remember clearly. It seems that something passed by me, and then I fell unconscious. Ah... Judging from the opponent's attack method, it should be a big iron ball."

"Big iron ball?" Mother was very surprised.

"Yes, the iron ball accelerated to a terrifying speed is about this big."

He raised his hand into a fist.

"It's so fast that even if your eyes can catch its trajectory, your body won't have time to react."

The woman was extremely surprised. She tried to recall all kinds of weapon knowledge in her mind, "What kind of weapon is this? Ballista? Slingshot?"

Nathan shook his head, "No, it's definitely not any kind of weapon we know, it should be newly invented. However, as far as I know, I really can't think of any way to give objects such a powerful force. Unless Yes…"

Following his guess, the woman said, "The spellcaster...is there a spellcaster on the opponent's ship?"

"Well...that's the only explanation I can think of."

"That makes sense, but what method did the opponent's spellcaster use? There is no frontal hit, and there is such a great power just by passing close to the body. The world of magic is really boundless."

Nathan struggled to sit up, but the woman quickly held him down.

She said in an unquestionable tone: "Lie down and don't move, this time is your fate."

Nathan said dissatisfiedly: "I've been lying down for a week... Well, my head is still dizzy, and my ears are still ringing."

The woman explained: "After a person is hit **** the head, they will generally have these symptoms and even lose some memory. The brains of our spellcasters are more fragile and sensitive than ordinary people, and ordinary people can recover after about two weeks of rest. Normal, and you... have to rest for a month."

"One month?" Nathan laughed at himself, "Hehe, I haven't experienced such a big failure yet."

He swore angrily, "Hmph, Graiman, I must make you look good."

"What did you say?"

A voice full of shock rang in his ears.

He turned his head to look at his mother, only to see that she seemed to be struck by lightning, her almond eyes were wide open, her face was full of disbelief, and her body seemed to be still trembling slightly.

Nathan asked strangely: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

The woman was stunned for a while, and it took a long time to react. She asked worriedly, "Nathan, what do you mean by 'Gleiman'?"

Nathan explained: "Hmph, I'm just guessing, but there's a high probability that I can't be wrong. We were defeated by King Qin's fleet heading south from the Northwest Gulf, and that fleet was flying a flag with a red flying dragon pattern."

When the word 'red flying dragon' was mentioned, the woman's body trembled visibly.

"And when I went to the Westport of the Aldo Kingdom to investigate, Edward told me that a ship with a red dragon flag belonged to the Greiman family in the Northwest Gulf. It was sent by the Lyman family. Hehe, I have never heard of this family, but I think it must be a certain lord of the Northwest Gulf."

He wondered why his mother had such a big reaction, and looked at her suspiciously.

My mother seemed to be talking to herself and said, "How could that be? The Gleiman family has always kept a low profile, and they have never been prominent."

"Mom!" Nathan yelled, "Do you know anyone from this family?"

The woman raised her head and saw the doubts on her son's face. She immediately returned to normal, and said in a calm tone: "Well...well. Didn't I mention it to you before, when you didn't remember anything, I took it with you You've been to the Northwest Bay. This family...has people from me."

"Oh, that's right." Nathan gritted his teeth, "But now this family is our enemy."

The woman's face darkened: "Shut up! Nathan, listen to me, you can't treat the Gleiman family as an enemy, and you are not allowed to tell others about the role the Gleiman family played in this matter."

The young man looked aggrieved and said dissatisfiedly: "Why? I almost died in the opponent's hands! If the iron ball was a little bit higher at that time~www.mtlnovel.com~ half of my head would be gone!"

The woman said solemnly: "The Gleiman family...it's not just a simple acquaintance...he is kind to our mother and child."

"Uh... that's right."

Nathan choked. With such a past, it's really hard to start.

"What favor is it?"

"I don't want to mention it anymore. Anyway, just remember what I said."

"Well, you are really a kind person who knows how to repay you."

Nathan agreed, but his mother didn't want to mention it again, probably it was about the identity of a wizard. Being in the circle of spell casters, he has heard stories about ordinary people helping wizards, such as helping them hide their identities and avoid secular persecution and the pursuit of the church.

These are extremely rare examples, and they can't change Nathan's contempt and hostility towards mortals. But it is precisely because of its rarity that such kindness is rare.

"I can let it go, but I'm not the only one who knows that King Qin's fleet belongs to the Greiman family. Edward knows that he told me about the red dragon flag."

The woman raised her face: "Just take care of yourself. From now on, you should stay in Jiaowan and do things first, and don't get involved in the affairs of the west coast of Aldo."

"Listen to you... But I'm really not reconciled. It's the first time I was in such a mess, and I almost lost my life. If it wasn't for being kind to us, hehe, sooner or later..."

The woman interrupted him: "Huh? It's just a different standpoint. If you didn't like to show off, there would be such a catastrophe? You ignore what I usually say..."

Seeing that his mother was about to preach again, Nathan repeatedly begged for mercy.
