Chapter 254 Mercy in a Merciless World
Finished
The woman’s eyes up like she had just seen hope. She grabbed his leg, tears and snot running down her face. “Okay, okay! As long as you let my child go, I’ll do anything! Anything you want!”
“Anything?” the man asked, pushing it further. His eyes drifted to the two–year–old child. “Then why don’t you let him join too? So young, looks like he’d-”
Before he could finish, a sharp pain shot through his leg.
“Arhhhh!!”
He screamed and kicked hard. “You crazy bitch! You dared to bite me!”
He didn’t hold back. His foot slammed straight into her face.
Blood poured from her nose. The woman fell to the ground, her eyes red with rage. “You monster! You’re not even human!”
She could never have imagined he would say something like that.
The man flew into a rage. “You said you’d do anything! Get out! You and that useless brat, both of you get lost! Trash like you should be thrown out to the zombies!”
As he spoke, he grabbed her by the hair and dragged her toward the exit.
Domingo was about to explode with anger.
Boom!
Before the man could take more than a couple of steps, a thick green vine lashed out and struck him across the waist.
He didn’t even have time to react. The force slammed him straight into the ground.
Two other vines moved more gently. They wrapped around the woman and the child, lifting them up and placing them safely on an open patch nearby.
“My baby! Are you okay?”
The woman didn’t care about herself. The moment she touched the ground, she crawled toward her child.
She checked him in a panic. When she saw there were no injuries, just fear, she finally let out a breath. She pulled him into her arms and burst into tears.
“I can’t believe this! I was gone for just three days, and this is what you’ve all turned into!”
Domingo’s body shook with anger. Countless green vines burst from the ground, whipping through the air like living whips.
The man was also an ability user. After gaining powers, a person’s body became stronger in many ways. Even though Domingo’s attack had nearly knocked the wind out of him, he barely managed to hold on.

“C–Commander…”
He was shocked when he saw how mad Domingo was.
Domingo gritted his teeth. “Oh, you still remember I’m the commander? What were you doing?!”
“I…”
The man felt guilty. But then something seemed to harden his resolve. His expression turned stubborn.
“I know you won’t like what I’m about to say, but I have to say it. I think David was right.
“You know the saying–when the world ends, kindness gets you killed first. I know you’re a good person, but kindness should be used wisely. The world out there is chaos. We don’t need to save everyone.
“Especially people like them. Keeping them here just wastes resources. At the end of the day, what does their life have to do with us? If they can’t survive, that’s their fault. It simply means they weren’t meant to make it in this new world.”
“You really think that?”
Domingo looked at him, disappointment clear on his face. “There are a lot of people in this base. Not many ability users, but still over 20 of you. And many of you didn’t have powers when you first came here. That includes you.
