The Legend of MIR II

mir2.sdo.com

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.

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...
