action

The two genetically modified soldiers Krauser and Geist are former research projects for the breeding of a super soldier who are involved in a war between the government troops and the independence aspiring Negruroms (Nexrum) on the planet Jura (sometimes translated as Jerra ). While Geist was immobilized because of its violence and banished into orbit around the planet, Krauser built a fortress in which many of the planet's inhabitants can safely live.

MD Spirit I: Most Dangerous Soldier

In the first part of the film, Geist escapes from his exile, because the satellite on which he was trapped in cold sleep crashes onto the planet Jerra. He kills the leader of a gang of outlaws and becomes their new leader himself, whereby Vaiya, the lover of the slain, is interested in him, which Geist ignores because he only likes the fight. He leads the group to more and more daring raids. When the gang saves a moving fortress of the government troops from the Negruroms during an attack, Geist joins Colonel Kurz , the commandant of the fortress, against the will of Colonel Kurz . The mission of the government troops is to penetrate the Brain Palace and stop the death-force program (a weapon of mass destruction), the countdown of which began automatically after the president was assassinated. The government troops penetrate the Brain-Palace , but are all but killed. In front of the control room, Kurz tries to destroy Geist with a special guard android, because he considers it to be an unpredictable danger, but he is defeated and is killed by Geist. Geist now has the option to stop the program, but in front of the terrified Vaiya decides against what Death-Force is unleashed on the planet: Millions of self-replicating robots pour over Jerra, and thus begin to extinguish all life.

MD Spirit II: Death Force

In the second part of the film the Death Force killed almost all of the inhabitants of Jerra, and Geist roams the planet in search of ever new battles. He is captured by a highly developed cyborg and taken to a scientist in Krauser's fortress. He considers Geist - who in contrast to Krauser does not have to undergo any regenerative therapy - to be the ultimate fighter and conducts experiments with him that increase Geist's brutality. When Krauser developed a plan with the remains of the government troops to finally destroy the units of the Death Force, the project was foiled by Geist. With the support of the Death Force, Geist now plans to kill the last of the Jura residents. In the final battle, Krauser's fortress is destroyed and the residents are killed by the Death Force, Krauser is also killed. The fate of Geist, who was badly wounded by Krauser, remains uncertain.
