After the establishment of the Universal Ecological Protection Alliance, Ava and Xavier devoted themselves heart and soul to the work of safeguarding cosmic ecology. As the influence of the Alliance continued to grow, civilizations from all quarters responded, contributing their own ecological monitoring technologies and resources. However, ripples once again disturbed the peaceful universe.
A planet situated along a vital interstellar trade route underwent a sudden and drastic upheaval. Its internal geological structure exhibited abnormalities, triggering intense earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Billions of tons of volcanic ash blotted out the sun, not only devastating the planet's ecological environment but also posing a severe threat to passing starships, forcing the trade route to be severed.
Upon receiving the news, Ava and Xavier led an elite team from the Alliance to the disaster-stricken planet at the earliest possible moment. Upon arrival, they found the situation even more dire than they had imagined. The planet's crustal movements were extraordinarily violent, rendering traditional geological monitoring equipment completely useless. Moreover, the toxic gases and high-temperature magma released by the volcanic eruptions made rescue operations fraught with difficulty.
