June 1931. In the ancient city of Lyon, the body of a young woman, mysteriously drained of all life, is found in the Rhône River. Quickly, the Nyctalope gathers all the agents of his Committee for Information and Defense (C.I.D.) to solve this strange case. They discover that the woman's brain and spinal cord have been replaced with mysterious substances and that she has been bled in a rirual manner.
The Nyctalope soon realizes that he is fighting the deadly and powerful Princess Alouh T'Hô, immortal leader of the sect of the Blood Worshippers who feed on the blood and vital fluids of the young.
