A CIA field operations unit, after making a terrorist talk in Naples, has just neutralized a dangerous Chechen separatist extremist on a railway in Greece. However, as they were preparing to leave the carcass of the armored train behind them when leaving, the Black Ops realized with horror that the Chechens had not got their hands on bacteriological weapons but on real mythological monsters ! They regained their freedom, to the great surprise of the Americans. Thinking that these survivors from ancient times could represent a global threat to the entire world, the President himself entrusted this team with the mission of finding and neutralizing them, by any means necessary. However, not only could the appearance of these "monsters" in the modern world not be kept secret, but this game turned out to be far too big, even for them. If they're so serious about considering these creatures as monsters, then these survivors from Ancient Greece are going to give them a run for their money !
