Having delivered Mephisto to justice – precisely the very Mephisto who is destined to reveal himself in the future as the most diabolical and fearful of his enemies, Tex embraces Montales’ cause and lays the groundwork for a long friendship: with disguises and guerrilla actions, Willer helps him to become governor and to free Mexico from an oppressive regime. Having returned to his native land, Tex hardly has time to break up Red’s band, Red being a half-breed who terrorizes cattle raisers and who is in the pay of the scoundrel Judge Bess, before the threat of Mister X and of Wan-Ho’s opium traffickers appears on the horizon...

In search of Mephisto and his sister, Tex joins Montales, a man leading a rebellion against the corrupt Mexican government. Besides the final showdown with Mephisto, Tex decides to help fight injustice in Mexico and joins the revolution.

This story can also be seen as two separate adventures: in the first, Tex tracks down and captures Mephisto. In the second he stays with Montales, and leads the rioters to victory.

After the Mexican adventure, in which he became the hero of Mexico, Tex returns to Texas, still an outlaw, although he has obtained evidence of his innocence. He comes across infected cattle and the helpless rancher Stanfield, who is being pursued by the "Red Gang". Of course, Tex decides to help him…

The adventure is practically a prologue (in which Tex stands out for the first time among the cowboys) for the sequel that also involves the Chinese. The two stories could also be seen as a single adventure.
