Awakening of Evil

Hello, esteemed Master. The thing is, the stats were actually quite high due to "Higher Education" and level 35; one spell had 64 units... but that's not the point. I didn't cheat; I'm slowly progressing through the labyrinth. I had 440 mana due to magic attraction, so it's okay for now (phantom creation, regeneration), but then, when it runs out... The creatures are completely "weak," the hero is already level 23, and they finally gave 1 to defense. Now the stats are 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0. Will there be creature dwellings somewhere further on? Or mercenaries? I've firmly decided to complete it, it's like a hardcore challenge for the player. If you want, I can send you a save file so you can take a look.
P.s. For some reason, I think that "Higher Education" is to blame. The stats shouldn't have dropped to zero; the ones that were removed from the level were added to the ones that "Higher Education" stopped giving, and that's the minus... I couldn't come up with any other explanation for this situation.
