Mephistopheles (Mep), an agent of Satan, travels down the timeline from 2020 to 1620 and meets Dr. Faustus, a researcher seeking more and more knowledge who is impressed with the scientific improvements in 2020. Aided by his modern gadgets, Faustus saves the life of the queen and the Princess's puppy. Mep changes Dr. Faustus’ personality and makes him look like a Lord and he wins the heart of the princess. With the help of Mep, he assists the king to defeat the neighbouring country and he is made the king of the country. Impressed by his changed personality, the princess proposes to him. He falls a prey to the daughter of the defeated king as plotted by Mep and meets a violent death in the end. Mep resurfaces again in 2020 and rules the Silicon Valley of California. He challenges to wipe out the human race with his gadgets before the end of this century as he did with Dr. Faustus in 1620 and he gives very valid reasons why the human race does not deserve to live beyond 2099.
