Synopsis

A gigantic space-station hospital as large as a planet is almost deserted, but still interests Ulysses because it contains a cure to bring his crew back to life. The medicine practised there is so advanced that the Gods, concerned over its power created robot flowers, which upon detecting life-forms destroy them mercilessly. Ulysses and Telemachus, realising the danger in time, leave the planet which they explored, but Yumi, desperate to cure her brother and the rest of the crew is left on the surface with Nono.
