“

Took out a good size piece of your wall on the way in. You won't have a need for it after today. ―Mills taunting Indira before he and his men attempt to execute them all.

”

Mills (first name unknown) is an antagonist and a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's The Walking Dead: World Beyond. He is a member of the Civic Republic Military and served as the secondary antagonist of the episode "Returning Point".

Overview

Mills is a relentless, brutal, and sadistic member of the CRM who follows any order without question, including wiping out an entire community. When he arrives at the Perimeter he has a very smug attitude, mocking Indira about how they destroyed their wall and that they're all going to die. He has everyone at the Perimeter go on their knees to be executed, including children. Judging by his nonchalant attitude and the CRM's brutal nature, he most likely has become desensitized to killing others. Before Mills can have the Perimeter residents executed, Will shoots him right before he can give the order. However, Mills survives and despite being badly wounded, he still chooses to fight and manages to kill Robin and almost kill Elton and Asha if not for Indira saving them by shooting Mills in the head.

Pre-Apocalypse

Location Unknown

Nothing is known about Mills' life prior to or as the outbreak began.

Post-Apocalypse

At some point, Mills became a sergeant of a large organization known as Civic Republic Military.

Season 2

"Returning Point"

After learning about the Perimeter's aid of the Endlings from Brody, Jadis dispatches Sergeant Mills and his team to deal with the security threat.

At the Perimeter, three CRM vehicles arrive, carrying Mills' team who round up the Perimeter residents aside from Will who manages to hide behind a house. Mills tells Indira that they took out a good sized piece of the Perimeter's wall on their way in, but they won't need it after today.

As everyone else kneels and Will observes from his hiding spot, Indira begs Mills to let her speak with Elizabeth Kublek. Contacting Mills, Jadis orders him to put her on with Indira. Indira pleads with Jadis to call off her soldiers and take Indira while letting her people live. Jadis admits that she's impressed with the globe sculpture that Elizabeth had commissioned from Indira years before, acknowledging that the kind of welding involved is tricky which Jadis knows personally. "I was like you once. Leading a community of artists, but they never really stood a chance, as yours don't now," Jadis reveals. Jadis believes that larger, more powerful communities overtake smaller ones and that it's become their responsibility to. The larger communities are ascendant because they've adapted and equipped themselves for survival not just through might, but by seeing the world for what it is and what it must be. While Indira's vision is lovely, it doesn't portray what is. Indira doesn't and can't see it which is why the CRM can't let her people live. Making Indira kneel, Mills reports that the hostiles are secured, and his team is awaiting Jadis' orders. Huck objects that the Perimeter provides a valuable service to the CRM and are a resource, but Jadis orders Mills to kill everyone.

Will draws the gun that Dev gave him as Mills' squad assumes firing positions. Kneeling next to Asha, Elton sees a leaf float by on the breeze. Interlocking his pinkie with Asha's, Elton promises her that it's going to be alright. As the soldiers prepare to execute everyone, Will opens fire, wounding Mills before he runs out of bullets. As the soldiers fire at Will, Dennis suddenly opens fire, killing one and engaging in a firefight with the rest, joined by Silas, much to Elton's amazement, who kills two more soldiers. Dennis calls orders into his radio for the squad to fall back to the mill, confusing them and causing them to fall back. Crawling over to Mills and grabbing a CRM gun, Indira orders her people to arm themselves and find cover. As Elton, Asha and Robin take cover together, Mills draws his pistol and kills Robin, but Indira shoots him in the head from behind before he can kill Elton and Asha.
