An International petroleum company named "Consolidated Oil" secretly lights an oil well in the Sahara because the local government in the Middle East doesn't comply with their demands. Due to the expected size of the damage oil prices hit the roof. Merely as an alibi the company's president (Mr. Stewart) assigns John Carter aka "Salamander" to take care of this matter. Yet once Carter arrives on location one of the company's representants hinders him to extinguish the endurance burning and signalises to him that this catastrophe happened for a reason. "Consolidated Oil" hires a Romanian crew with lesser experience in regards to this kind of burnings. But the Romanian specialists team up with Carter and find prove for arson. Step by step they succeed in putting the seven fire sources to rest. "Consolidated Oil" tries to sabotage the firefighting but their attempts are proven futile. Finally the International news media disclose the conspiration. Stewart is unmasked as one of the driving forces behind the scheme. He needs to learn that he is chosen as a pawn sacrifice and while he still thinks this over he is murdered. His secretary isn't surprised at all when she's informed he just died. Instead she is eager to show the obituary she wrote. Meanwhile the Romanian firefighters are publicly celebrated in Arabia.

As the Romans under Trajan take the Dacian capital Sarmizegetusa, the Dacian king Decebalus and his closest followers are forced to retreat. Trajan takes command of the city and orders one of his officers, Tiberius, to pursue the defeated king. In a cave, Decebalus broods on his defeat, and tells his devoted supporter Gerula that the Dacian people must continue to resist. Tiberius and his men catch up with Decebalus and Gerula. Decebalus kills himself to avoid capture. To Gerula's horror, Tiberius chops off Decebalus' head and right hand as trophies to take back to Trajan. While they are returning to the Roman camp Gerula escapes. He gathers together a group of Dacians and takes them to a part of the land not yet under Roman control.
