Paine's game

Paine covered his mouth and nose and couldn't help coughing lightly. His mouth was now full of the smell of blood. The shock wave generated by the explosion hurt his organs and made him cough up some blood. This was already thanks to

His physique is beyond ordinary people. If it were an ordinary person, his spleen would be damaged and he would have died of massive bleeding.

He made a series of heavy breathing sounds like he was being choked, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence.

"It almost killed me."

"I'm sorry, Petey may not have grasped the amount of gunpowder properly."

A woman wearing a black veil appeared in front of Paine, and Paine recognized that it was Scarlett Hao's voice. It seemed that this woman had been following Paine.

"I didn't control the power well? I almost died inside."

"You were attacked by that monster? You couldn't escape in time. Is the monster dead now?"

"Isn't this what you expected? I think you should care about my safety first."

Paine said angrily that they had made a plan before setting off. Paine would carry out the assassination operation. Since he was just assassinating an ordinary person, once he did not come out in time, it meant that he was in trouble. Scarlett Hao said that since the monster is not dead, it is possible

appeared, so if the plan did not go smoothly, they would immediately provide fire cover, but Scarlett Hao and Petey did not say it was this kind of "cover".

Paine wished he could punch Scarlett Hao, this unsympathetic mad woman to death.

"Right now, we are just grasshoppers on a rope. Instead of worrying about that monster first, you might as well worry about my physical condition."

"But you seem to be fine now."

Scarlett Hao said, her eyes looking at Paine were full of schadenfreude. The witch was also quite vindictive. She would not forget the incident where Paine grabbed her neck and threatened her life before.

Paine knew that he couldn't argue with the witch who was stuck in a grudge mode at this time, so he could only change the subject.

"What exactly did you use? This can't be black powder"

Paine said: "To achieve the effect just now, black powder requires a huge amount. I don't think you can transport so much gunpowder here under the eyes of the Northern Army."

"What if the gunpowder was originally there?"

"Impossible! The Northern Army would not be so stupid as not to discover so much black powder."

"You are only half right. It is indeed not black powder. It is a brand new gunpowder. It is indeed much more powerful than the black powder used in the army. Before the Northern Army requisitioned this place as a hospital, this explosive was hidden here.

Here it is."

Scarlett Scarlet said, "Peety was the largest cloth merchant in the South, operating more than half of the leather and woolen goods business in the South. She extracted a new type of gunpowder from a dye. This gunpowder was very powerful and compared with black powder.

It's very stable, but it requires a witch's special means to detonate it. This is Petey's trump card. She made arrangements in many places before the Northern Army entered the city."

"So you followed me to detonate gunpowder? Do you know that you almost killed me! How much did she arrange?"

"Every good house in Atlanta that may have been expropriated has gunpowder buried under it. There are just as many as there are."

"Including her family?"

"Naturally included."

Paine raised the danger level of the two women by several levels. It turned out that Atlanta was now sitting on a pile of gunpowder. No wonder Scarlett Hao had the confidence to enter this city that was already controlled by the enemy.

"We should leave. Anyone who is not deaf will notice such a loud explosion. The monster is probably not dead."

Paine said quickly, his sixth sense warning him that the crisis was not over yet.

At this time, the bricks and stones piled into hills on the ruins began to shake off, as if something was about to come out. Sharp whistles were also heard in the distance, and a large group of people were gathering here.
