Su Yao stared intently at the leader of the dark organization, quickly calculating her countermeasures. She knew that the enemy before her was extremely powerful and held the home-field advantage, but she and her team had no possibility of retreating.
"Ling Yu, take a few people to hold off those experts. I'll deal with the leader and find an opportunity to destroy the reactor!" Su Yao decisively gave the order. Ling Yu accepted the order and led three ability users towards the experts of the Dark Organization. Ice-type abilities and other abilities erupted instantly, and a fierce battle ensued with the enemy.
Su Yao flashed, using her spatial abilities to appear beside the Dark Leader. Her hands gleamed, and spatial power pierced the leader like a sharp blade. The leader, however, remained calm, a shield of dark energy surging around him, easily blocking the attack. "Your spatial abilities are indeed troublesome, but in front of me, they're nothing!" the leader sneered, then his hands moved, dark energy coiling towards Su Yao like a python.
Su Yao teleported away, dodging the attack. At the same time, the system prompted her in her mind: "The Dark Leader's energy shield will be briefly weakened when it launches a Dark Pulse attack. You can take this opportunity to break through." Su Yao's eyes narrowed, and she deliberately exposed an opening to lure the leader into attacking.
The leader fell for the trap, and the dark pulse shot towards Su Yao like black lightning. The instant the pulse was launched, Su Yao's spatial abilities erupted, creating a small spatial vortex in front of her to absorb a portion of the dark pulse's energy. Simultaneously, her body surged towards the leader. As she approached, a longsword formed from spatial energy appeared in Su Yao's hand, and she stabbed fiercely at the leader's shield.
The shield rippled violently under the powerful blow, a crack appearing on its surface. The leader's expression changed; he hadn't expected Su Yao to find a weakness in his shield. He quickly increased the output of dark energy, attempting to repair it.
Meanwhile, the battle on Ling Yu's side had also reached its climax. Although the superhumans were exhausted, their tenacious will and tacit cooperation made it a close fight against the experts from the Dark Organization. Ling Yu had pushed his ice-type superpower to its limit, lowering the surrounding temperature to an extremely low level. Ice shards shot towards the enemy like projectiles, restricting their movements.
Taking advantage of the leader's distraction in repairing the shield, Su Yao activated her spatial abilities again, this time attempting to trap the leader in a separate space. However, the leader seemed to sense her intentions, and his dark energy suddenly erupted, breaking free from Su Yao's spatial restraints. "You little brat, you've got some skills, but don't even think about stopping our plan!" the leader roared.
Su Yao didn't respond; her gaze hardened. She mentally communicated with the system: "System, is there a way to enhance my attack and break through his shield in one go?" The system replied: "You can fuse all your stored spatial energy stones to increase attack power, but this will consume a large amount of your ability reserves, and your spatial abilities will be weakened for a period of time afterward." Su Yao didn't hesitate: "Execute!"
Instantly, Su Yao's body shone brightly. She gathered the fused spatial energy into the longsword in her hand, causing the blade to expand several times its original size and emit a dazzling blue light. "Die!" Su Yao shouted, thrusting her full power towards the leader.
This sword strike contained all of Su Yao's power, shattering the leader's shield like glass. Su Yao's longsword pierced the leader's body, whose eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at her. "You... how could this be..." Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed.
Having defeated the leader, Su Yao turned and ran towards the reactor. At the same time, Ling Yu and the other ability users had also successfully defeated the Dark Organization's experts and were rushing towards the reactor. When Su Yao arrived at the reactor, the system prompted: "The energy core must be removed and destroyed to completely stop the reaction."
Su Yao took a deep breath and used her spatial abilities to reach into the reactor, searching for the energy core. Just as she was about to grasp the energy core, the reactor suddenly released a powerful repulsive force, knocking Su Yao back several steps. "I can't give up!" Su Yao gritted her teeth and charged forward again.
After a difficult struggle, Su Yao finally succeeded in retrieving the energy core. She injected spatial energy into it, triggering a small spatial explosion that completely destroyed the energy core. With the destruction of the energy core, the dark energy within the Dark Fortress began to dissipate, and various traps and mechanisms ceased to function.
Su Yao and her team succeeded. Exhausted, they emerged from the dark fortress, gazing at the still scorching, deathly desert outside, yet their hearts were filled with hope. This victory brought a glimmer of hope to humanity in this apocalyptic world of extreme heat. Su Yao knew that many more challenges awaited them, but as long as they remained united, they would surely be able to protect humanity's last hope.
