Chapter 1465 Moral Chaos

Chapter 1465 Moral Chaos
"Please don't…" A woman was hugging a child while looking at a middle-aged man in fear. They were trembling in fear while the woman just tried to protect the child.
"If you want my protection, then strip!" The middle-aged guy smirked, licking his lips. "Hurry up. You're still outside, and if you refuse, the monster might find you."
The middle-aged man was standing inside a store. The store itself wouldn't be too safe, but the middle-aged man was an expert, so he truly had the power to grant some protection.
The woman gritted her teeth, but she couldn't do anything other than obey this person if she wanted to save both her and her kid.
"That's good." The middle-aged guy couldn't contain her smile, looking at the woman vulgarly.
The woman was so embarrassed that she closed her eyes, not wanting to see her own pathetic self as well as this guy.
"The world is ending, so no one will be able to take care of you anymore." The middle-aged man stated to make the woman act faster.
She never thought that they would be in this situation. Despite knowing there was a common enemy, there was actually someone who would take advantage of this situation.
Suddenly, a young man landed next to her.
"You—" The middle-aged man was the first to react because he was an expert, but the young man easily grabbed his collar and threw him into the street.
"Disgusting. I'm throwing the trash." The young man clicked his tongue.
The middle-aged man was shocked, but he still recognized the young man. "You are The—"
Before he finished, a monster appeared on his back. It wasn't that the monster just appeared out of nowhere, the monster was there all the time. However, the young man used his illusion power to camouflage the monster and finally revealed its appearance when it opened its mouth, biting the man to death.
"Aaaahhhh!" The middle-aged man screamed in pain, but the sound soon faded away as the monster swallowed the man alive. After that, the young man summoned a blue light and shot the monster, causing an explosion that engulfed the monster and erased both the monster and the man.
The young man asked while closing the kid's eyes. "Are you all right?"
"You…" The woman was bewildered, never expecting to see such a celebrity here. "Theodore Griffith."
Theo ignored her reaction and asked, "Can you still keep going? If you keep following this road and turn right at the end, you'll find a military camp there. I'm going there as well, but I can't go with you since I have to go around to try to help people in the military. Don't worry. I'll do my best to get rid of all the monsters around here. Can you go with your daughter?"
"Y-yes." The woman nodded as she was still stunned. However, Theo had already jumped to another place, trying to kill some monsters. The woman had no choice other than to go according to his instruction, trying to get help from the military.
Killing that man truly left a bad taste in his mouth. Theo clicked his tongue, "This is why I don't really want to help. I don't like humans. Even in this kind of situation, there's someone trying to take advantage of the situation. If I were not here, I don't know what would happen to that mother and daughter.
"If I stay too long with them, they'll grow dependent on me and keep asking to save people for the sake of humanity. Eventually, they're trying to make me their slave with those flowery words. I wonder if I should just allow the higher being to reset this world. But then again, I don't want to die yet."
Theo let out a long sigh as he continued forward to open the path for many people, directing them to the army.
However, he found another group of people that surprised him.
After he saved her, they started spouting a bunch of nonsense.
"Please take us with you!"
"That's right. You're strong, right? You should bring us with you."
"The phenomenon that appeared all around the world was similar to the one in Argelia. You had saved them, so you must know about it, right? Why didn't you do anything?"
"Are you a human being? You are actually letting all those people die!"
"It's because of you not doing your work that those people are dying!"
"The world is in chaos."
They ran their mouths to the point Theo was disgusted by him. Ultimately, Theo ignored them and used his Blink to get away from them.
His heart became even worse. The more he saved people, the further his heart wanted him to stop.
Those people didn't know that his action actually saved more people than they thought. If he actually did something, the higher being could actually reset the world completely, killing all 17 billion people on Earth.
But with his action, at least a few billion would survive and continue living in this world. It was impossible to alarm more governments since if they made more preparations, the apocalypse would be far bigger than this.
Theo could only stand on top of the buildings while recalling what the God of Mischief said back then.
"Will a man be called ruthless if he killed fifty people to save a million lives? No, in my case, will I be called ruthless if I allow the apocalypse to kill billions of people to save humanity from extinction?
"Will a man be called a bad guy when he joins the enemy side to protect the people on his side? I wonder if I will get the answer to this in the future… Joins the enemy side… I wonder if I'm going to join the monsters or even a higher being to protect these people…
"Those are truly tricky questions since the answer will come sooner or later. And now, the first answer is currently forming. After some time, I will know that answer."
Theo took a deep breath while looking at this world with a sad face.
