Britannicus and Ulixes must unleash the secret powers of King Priam's Scepter, unused for hundreds of years, to save Roman lives.
An aqueduct tunnel of Rome has collapsed and the most fearless men in the Roman Empire, the Royal Guards, have failed in rescuing the trapped workers. Once again, Augustus Claudius turns to his son, Britannicus, and his friends, Ulixes and Diana, for help.
Racing against time, the young rescuers plan a dangerous underground route to find the trapped workers. Following the teachings of Seneca, they adapt to each deadly change of events by staying calm and rational.
Luckily, the friends gain a valuable tool by unlocking the splendor of Priam's Scepter, a sacred token of Rome, and travel through underground springs and caverns to enter the tunnel. With the protection of the gods Mercury and Poseidon, the three friends risk their lives to bring the trapped men home.
Meanwhile, the ambitious Nero and his mother, Agrippina, plot to enthrone Nero as the next emperor. Desperate to succeed, they realize they must first get rid of the clever Ulixes who continues to protect his best friend and thwart their plans. Uli is arrested and the gods decide his fate as he is thrown over Tivoli falls, barely surviving the deadly plunge.
