A powerful nation develops a new gas that does not kill or injure those who inhale it, but instead induces a lethargic, almost mystical state. When X‑70 gas bombs are accidentally dropped on the peaceful country of Nebelux, the residents undergo an unforeseen mutation, altering the population in unexpected ways.
