En vacances dans l'archipel des Açores, le professeur Mortimer fait une stupéfiante découverte. Lors de l'exploration d'un gouffre nommé " O foro do diabo " (le trou du diable), il trouve un métal inconnu aux étonnantes propriétés radioactive et luminescente. Il ne peut s'empêcher de penser à l'orichalque, ce mystérieux métal que les Atlantes, dans le récit de Platon, estimaient aussi précieux que l'or. La découverte est suffisamment importante pour qu'il prévienne son ami, le capitaine Blake. Ce dernier vient le rejoindre à Saõ Miguel et les événements se précipitent. Quelqu'un dérobe le spécimen que Mortimer avait laissé dans sa villa. Blake et lui n'ont que le temps de voir un étrange engin traverser l'espace à la vitesse de l'éclair, disparaissant dans la nuit. De plus en plus intrigués, les deux hommes décident de refaire une expédition au " Foro do diabo " pour y retrouver des échantillons. Ils sont accompagnés d'un guide, Pépé et de son assistant sous les traits duquel se cache l'aventurier Olrik, leur plus mortel ennemi. Ce dernier a été embauché par une puissance étrangère pour récupérer le précieux minerai. La descente dans les dangereuses caldeiras commence. Cette plongée dans les entrailles de la terre va les amener à vivre leur plus extraordinaire aventure. Élucidant un mystère vieux de plusieurs siècles, ils partiront à la découverte de l'Atlantide, de son peuple et de ses ennemis, exploreront le continent perdu et risqueront leurs vies pour sauvegarder la paix dans l'Empire Atlante. Ils braveront mille dangers pour revenir vers notre monde où l'Atlantide reste une énigme irrésolue... Le moindre de ces dangers n'étant pas Olrik...

Before Blake & Mortimer, Edgar P. Jacobs had created a first comic that has now attained mythical status - The U Ray. Here it is now, finally translated into English. The nation of Norlandia is in conflict with its powerful rival Austradia. The eminent Professor Marduk is tasked by the High Council of Norlandia with militarising a major scientific discovery: the U Ray. However, doing so will require finding a deposit of Uradium, the ore needed to power the ray. And the only known deposit is in an unexplored volcanic archipelago. An expedition is quickly put together, but in the shadows, the Austradian intelligence services are waiting for the moment to act...
