The first blank describes the journalist’s pursuit of the story; since he’s investigating day and night and writing until dawn, a word like tirelessly would make sense in the blank. Of the choices, indefatigable—literally, not able to be fatigued—is the best fit. The clue for the second blank is get the story first; one of the meanings of surmount is to prevail over, so that is the best answer.
