Takes place just after the previous film's events. Typhon is free, as are his two brothers : Enceladus, the powerful giant who can cause earthquakes, and the very dangerous Python, a gigantic snake that even the Gods feared. Reunited with the love of his life, thanks to the help of the Norse God Loki, who obtained what was needed for the freed from Etna, Typhon helps Echidna find their remaining children, to prepare for the following. Although some members of their family have been prisoners since the events of the previous film, Echidna intends to free them once they have finished with their enemies, her husband knowing the place where other members of his family are imprisoned, other creations of Gaia : the giants. While the CIA and the army, with the help of their allies from the British secret society, continue to vainly attempt to eliminate these creatures, Cerberus returns to Tartarus, in order to free the giants and remind the terrible King Porphyrion of the oath he to his father. Meanwhile, agents Wealer and Hoover, who had been magically banished by Echidna at the end of the first film, try to free themselves from the mystical Labyrinth of Daedalus, and especially from its terrible guardian/prisoner. All these events are well connected and the future of the world risks being most... mythological !
