Story

edit

Doctor Garcia had made an invention that would stop the air pollution. After he disappeared, the children of the Secret Valley have to find six golden salamanders which each contain the name of a mineral for that secret recipe. Professor Poopsnagle, the grandfather of Peter, planned a steam zeppelin, a reconstruction of a red bus with technology of a hot air balloon so it can fly. The children now build it and search the salamanders with the aid of an encoded document.

Count Sator is also interested in this formula. He kidnapped the professor, turned one of the children into a spy and observes the children with his computer "Brutus". Later they rescued Professor Poopsnagle and helped him with his invention called Megavapor.
