The Legend of Mir II, is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game, or MMORPG and remained one of the most popular and well known online game in China. The Legend of Mir II was the most popular online game in China in 2002 and 2003.
Background
Humans, beasts and monsters
once lived together in a land called Mir. Humans
were, however, much weaker than the beasts and
monsters and thus they were forced to form alliances
for self-defense. One day, a new mysterious race
arrived in Mir and changed the balance of power.
This new species quickly mastered all kinds of
skills and soon dominated the land.
This new race taught humans the use of fire and
other important survival tools. Once the humans
learned these skills, they began to break free
from their fear of the beasts and monsters. Soon,
the humans began to expand their presence in Mir
and eventually they established their own country
and their own civilization. Although it is said
that the ancient civilization of the humans possessed
a rich cultural beyond our imagination, that civilization
along with the mysterious race that helped the
humans, was all but destroyed in a mysterious
explosion.
Some humans did, however, survive the destruction.
Although those survivors and their offspring struggled
to rebuild their civilization, resources were
in short supply and memories of the once great
civilization quickly began to fade. The humans
did gradually succeed in constructing several
cities, but the greatness of Mir has not yet been
restored. Although the memories of Mir grow faint,
the legend of Mir continues to live in the hearts
of humans everywhere as they carry on their struggle
to conquer the beasts and monsters, and to restore
their once great civilization.

Nobody knew when spiritual
power began to prevail the world. Mankind is divided
into three races spiritually, namely "Dream
Tiger", "Valley" and "Flood".
Wars and weak royalty left the world to
mighty warlords and the law of the jungle. The
three races either fought or faked alliances.
The day finally came when the devil, long imprisoned
by ancient powers, regained its strength from
the underground. Tamed demons began to revolt
and even to erode human spirit. Threatened by
a common enemy and an unprecedented crisis, the
three races finally established a tight alliance:
warriors and princes stormed the land hoping to
become legendary heroes. At last the devil retreated
to his tomb.
However, mysterious, deeply hidden powers are
stirred up again...

the gods split the world in three, divided by
impassable seas; each of the three worlds was
ruled by different gods and supported by, respectively,
"magic", "civilization" and
"dreams". Each world developed in its
own time and space, isolated from the others.
Only legendary warriors chosen by gods are permitted
to cross the seas and journey among the three
worlds...
What kind of oath could last ten thousand
years?
Who will become the legendary hero that
crosses the three worlds?
What kind of changes will occur in the three
worlds?
All thrilling secrets would be unveiled on the
day when the thousand-year oath was due¡
Knowledge of the past quickly spread throughout
the land. Mankind created fortunes through hunting,
planting and mining, and established countries
that are civilized and orderly¡ everything
derived from the gods was respected and cherished
as "Tao".
Three thousand years later, men were using "Tao"
in ways far beyond the doctrine of the gods. Quarrels
followed. The three saints, "Overlord",
"Sword Master" and "Sage"
debated and fought bitterly on the top of Kulun
Mountain. Months later, the three made an oath
and carved it onto a monument, promising a duel
for their offspring to take place in one thousand
years...
