That's not right. How could my physical strength be so strong?

At first, he was so excited that he didn't notice anything wrong, but once he came out and was hit by the cold wind, he realized that the increased strength and its manifestation seemed to be out of proportion.

He had leveled up seven times in total, and with the Hero status, his physical strength should have increased by a maximum of eight times. However, it's important to note that he is a mage, and his mental strength is the most enhanced, while his physical strength has always increased by a relatively small amount each time.

If his physical strength before inheriting the legacy was 200 pounds, then according to the ratio, it would be impossible to reach his current strength.

Right, there is also the advanced skill, Adamantine Body, which only adds 30% to his stats. Although there is a 300% increase in HP, does the amount of HP have anything to do with the amount of strength?

Liu Siyi seemed to have grasped something, but when he tried to think about it carefully, he found nothing. When he realized he was getting a bit frustrated, he immediately took a deep breath to calm down.

Right! Suddenly, he thought of a problem. He had confused the game with reality. Although he tried to avoid this, sometimes he would unconsciously mix them up, which was inevitable after more than ten years of habit.

What is HP? In the game, it's naturally the hit points, and when they are depleted, the game character dies. But in the real world, HP isn't just a matter of "red"; it also represents endurance, the ability to withstand. As long as it's not an instant kill like a direct headshot, such as in the battle between the Dragon Knight and Volpe, it's a matter of physical strength running out and then collapsing.

For example, the Slow spell doesn't just slow down the target; it also reduces attack speed, reaction speed, and so on, creating a chain effect.

Magic works this way, and attributes should work the same way.

Although he wasn't sure if his guess was correct, only this explanation made sense, and only a 300% increase in strength could account for his immense power.

Since physical attributes manifest differently in the two worlds, could the sudden increase in his strength also be brought into the Heroes of Might and Magic world? It seems not, because the transformation between the two worlds turns it back into HP.

Suddenly, Liu Siyi thought of another question: If physical strength manifests differently, could mental strength also have differences?

It doesn't seem so...

Thinking carefully, he suddenly remembered using his mental strength to scout the school last night.

Although he couldn't use spells like X-ray vision or spatial perception to scout characters' abilities, attributes, and the surrounding environment, in the Heroes of Might and Magic world, the range covered by mental strength is very wide. As long as the mental strength is controlled properly, the scouting range is the extent of the mental strength's spread. In the real world, spreading mental strength is much more difficult. There were two instances: playing basketball, and the maximum range was about 200 meters from himself.

With doubts, naturally, he had to experiment. He immediately put it into action, walking on the street and using his mental strength to spread it out.

As the mental strength increased, the range reflected in his mind also expanded: 100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters. When it reached 300 meters, Liu Siyi felt it becoming difficult. If he continued to increase the amount, the range would definitely expand further, but doing so might damage his brain, which would be counterproductive.

Why can mental strength spread so far in the Heroes of Might and Magic world but not in the real world?

Is it suppression? But he doesn't have a law like the Lightning Bird, so why would he be suppressed?

Unless, the real world suppresses more than just laws.

Although this question is very frustrating, there's no way to change it, as it involves laws. Therefore, Liu Siyi could only try to find the differences between the two worlds and remember them, at least to avoid making mistakes. And he would definitely enter other worlds in the future, each with its unique and complete laws, so he would have to adapt to each one.

...

"Master, why did you come back so soon?" Lei Ying Bird was surprised to see his master return so quickly.

"Yes, things went smoothly, so I came back early." Liu Siyi himself didn't expect it to go so smoothly. He originally thought the diamond would cause some trouble, and it would take a few days to find the right people and discuss the details. But Uncle Long was so enthusiastic that he took care of everything in one go.

After entering the Heroes of Might and Magic world, he didn't think he could catch up with the already departed team, but Bird considered the situation thoroughly and left three Lightning Birds for communication and reporting.

"By the way, where is your large group going?" Liu Siyi looked into the distance, seeing the Minotaur Bill, the Diamond Man, the Cyclops Els, the hero Volpe, Nani, the Dragon Knight Malon, even third-tier Half-Orcs and Boars, fourth-tier Ogres and Orc Shamans, with Lightning Birds and Crystal Dragons scouting in the air, a massive force moving forward.

"Lord Lewis, we are going to occupy the gold mine. There are Crystal Dragons in the Crystal Mine, and Bird is worried there might be Gold Dragons in the gold mine, so he brought more troops, which is why we are moving slowly. After occupying the gold mine, our target will be the Desert Scorpion guarding the sixth-tier Diamond Treasure Chest. We will wait for you to open the treasure chest." The Crystal Dragon Bru flew over and said.

"Bird, Mantid, Kazzik, you take Volpe, Ball, Falen, Sina, Rein, Lya, and Lina, a few more Lightning Birds, and Bru, take your people, and we will set out first. Time is life, and I won't waste my life on the journey." Liu Siyi took over the command and divided the team into two parts. The concept of "time is life" is not recognized in a world where death is almost impossible unless you are killed.

The gold mine and crystal mine are buildings automatically generated by the laws. From a distance, a golden mound could be seen. However, what was strange was that the gold mine was unguarded.

"Wolfe, be careful." After casting various positive spells on the wolf hero, he sent him into the gold mine to find the gold purification room.

Soon, Wolfe rushed out and said, "Lord, I have occupied this gold mine, but there are a group of neutral sixth-tier Undead Slimes inside, about forty of them, and they are quite difficult to deal with."

Slimes, which look like green slugs, evolve to resemble the second-strongest Necromorphs in Heroes of Might and Magic IV. This unit has weak melee capabilities, slow movement speed, and low resistance to fire spells.

Although they have many weaknesses, as a sixth-tier unit, they are still very powerful.

Their soft, toxic bodies cause poisoning to any opponent they touch. They can form and spit toxic projectiles, which, while not having strong physical attacks, have a terrifying corrosive poison that is highly toxic. Another headache is that Slimes can emit toxic fog, especially in the gold mine tunnels, where the fog never dissipates, potentially reducing the number of allies before the battle even begins.

"Puji! Puji!..." A series of abnormally noisy and disgusting sounds came from the dark gold mine tunnel, the sound of Slimes moving. They clearly sensed that the gold mine had been occupied and were coming out to attack the occupiers.

Liu Siyi waved his hand, signaling everyone to fly up. Even if the Slimes have ranged attacks, at such a distance, their accuracy would be negligible.

Looking at the sickly green slug-like bodies of the Slimes emerging from the mine, Liu Siyi felt a wave of disgust and had no intention of taming them, mainly because they were too ugly.

Perhaps not finding the intruders in the mine and assuming they weren't very strong, the forty Slimes, including six elite Slimes with multiple mouths full of sharp teeth, rushed out with a "puji puji" sound.
