Su Yao and her team returned to the alliance exhausted from their victory, hoping to catch their breath, but little did they know that an even greater crisis was quietly brewing within the alliance.
During a routine resource allocation meeting, a heated dispute arose between different departments over the unequal distribution of supplies. Representatives from the agricultural sector argued that they had worked hard and deserved greater sustenance; while combat troops emphasized the dangers and pressures they faced, demanding priority allocation of energy and weaponry. Both sides held firm to their positions, refusing to yield, creating a tense atmosphere at the meeting.
Su Yao knew that if this internal conflict wasn't resolved in time, the alliance would collapse on its own. She used the system to quickly analyze the root cause of the conflict and discovered that there were loopholes in the resource statistics and allocation mechanism, leading to a lack of transparency and fairness in some information.
"Quiet down!" Su Yao shouted sharply. "Now is not the time to argue. Our common enemy is the high-temperature apocalypse. If internal chaos breaks out first, none of us will survive."
She immediately decided to overhaul the resource management system and establish a supervisory group composed of representatives from various departments to ensure the fairness, impartiality, and transparency of resource allocation. At the same time, Su Yao used her spatial abilities to reorganize and mark the material storage warehouses so that the system could more accurately count and allocate resources.
However, one problem after another arose. While studying the technological data brought back from the ruins, the Alliance's research team experienced multiple data breaches. This data concerns key technologies for the Alliance's future fight against the apocalypse; if it falls into enemy hands, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Su Yao suspected there was a traitor within the team, but without evidence, she could only investigate covertly. Utilizing the system's powerful monitoring capabilities, she analyzed and investigated the every move of the research team members. Simultaneously, she arranged for Ling Yu to lead trusted superhumans in a secret deployment within the research area, waiting for the traitor to slip up.
During the investigation, Su Yao noticed that a usually low-key researcher was behaving strangely. He often went to secluded corners alone late at night, as if he were trying to communicate with the outside world.
Su Yao decided to lure the suspects out. She deliberately revealed a false and important research progress at a scientific research conference, and then had Ling Yu and others closely monitor the reactions of the suspicious individuals.
As expected, the suspicious researcher fell for the trap. Under the cover of night, he sneaked out of the research area and headed to an abandoned building on the edge of the Alliance base. Su Yao and Ling Yu had been waiting there for quite some time.
"You finally decided to come out. I thought you were going to hide for much longer," Su Yao said coldly.
When the researcher realized his scheme had been exposed, he suddenly revealed a sinister expression. A strange, dark energy surged from his body, making him far more powerful than ordinary researchers. It turned out he had been controlled by a mysterious dark organization and had infiltrated the Alliance to steal secrets.
"You can't stop our plan. This apocalypse will be dominated by our dark organization!" He laughed wildly as he charged toward Su Yao.
Ling Yu quickly rushed forward, unleashing his full ice-type abilities, but the dark energy was able to partially resist the ice attacks. Seeing this, Su Yao activated her system's assistance to analyze the weaknesses of the dark energy.
"His dark energy pauses briefly after each attack. Seize this opening to attack his core in the abdomen!" Su Yao informed Ling Yu via communicator.
Ling Yu adjusted his tactics and engaged in a fierce battle with the spy. Su Yao, on the other hand, used her spatial abilities to interfere with the spy's movements, creating spatial vortexes and traps to restrict his range of motion.
After a fierce battle, Ling Yu finally managed to defeat the spy by thrusting his ice-type power into the core of his abdomen during a moment when the dark energy paused.
Su Yao retrieved communication devices from the spy that connected her to the dark organization. Through system hacking, she obtained information about the organization. This organization seemed to be plotting a larger conspiracy, attempting to use dark forces to rule over all survivors in the high-temperature apocalypse.
Su Yao knew that the challenges facing the alliance were becoming increasingly severe, including external competition for resources and enemy attacks, as well as internal threats that could drag the alliance into the abyss at any moment. But she was fearless. She would lead the alliance to repair internal rifts while actively preparing for war, meeting the challenge from the dark organization, and protecting humanity's last hope and civilization in the high-temperature apocalypse.
