Chapter 2: Freedom Preparation

In this den of robbers, Reinette's prestige is beginning to surpass that of the leader. Last time, it was because of Reinette that the bandits almost split.

Although it is referred to as a split, it is obvious that far more people are willing to support Reinette than those who support the leader.

After all, if you work as a robber under a doctor, at least you can receive better treatment for your injuries—many times better than being under his care.

If a split were to truly occur, those who supported him would surely die, including him.

That is why he became more aggressive in robbing—under the pretext of seizing more supplies—while in reality, he and his cronies were quietly left behind.

The reason there was only one person in the shed this time was either because the others were dead or because he simply had no intention of rescuing them.

The only one who returned with him was an old subordinate who had followed him for almost a year.

He did this deliberately. Every time, he sent his old subordinates into the fight, ensuring they got injured so that he could later "rescue" them. Due to their injuries, it was only natural for them to remain at the stronghold.

Additionally, because they managed to steal a large number of supplies each time, no one noticed that some people never returned. And even if they were discovered, no one seemed to care.

He knew that this would inevitably cause great harm to his gang. He could have chosen to follow everyone's wishes—to either voluntarily relinquish his position or give Reinette better treatment.

But he refused. He was accustomed to being domineering, and he enjoyed the thrill of being a leader. As long as Reinette remained alive, she was a threat to his position.

He understood that Reinette had to die.

Similarly, during her three days of imprisonment, Reinette realized something: every day, someone was rescued.

However, the ones being rescued belonged to the same small group, while the overall number of people in the gang seemed to be decreasing.

Reinette was not foolish. Given the leader's erratic behavior over the past half-month and the large number of people who had saved her just a few days ago, she understood what was about to happen.

She had to escape—preferably now.

[Beep~ Thank you for waiting. The medical system combat module patch has been updated.]

[Due to the system's inadequate assessment of this world's dangers, the host has encountered a high probability of death. A compensation package has been delivered.]

[Welcome to the system.]

Reinette raised an eyebrow. That remaining 1% had finally been completed.

It had taken three days. She wouldn't have been surprised if it took even longer, but it was best that it finished now—she desperately needed combat power.

Reinette immediately accessed the system. Because the patch update was still being finalized, she could only view the evaluation after the process was completed.

Not only was she unable to see the rewards for completing treatments, but she was also unable to claim them, as everything had been delayed due to the system updates.

Reinette was looking forward to the accumulated rewards from this past month of intensive treatment. Although her scores weren't high each time, small gains accumulated over time could amount to something significant.

[Combat Module Patch]

[No abilities under this branch yet.]

"It's not much different from when I first saw it a month ago. But now I have 20,000 medical points?"

Reinette carefully examined the data displayed on the panel. Aside from a few new sections due to the combat module patch, there was no progress in the medical field.

Medical points functioned as the system's currency. It seemed that her month of treatment work had earned her quite a sum.

Even though she had been treating patients daily, most cases only required suturing. While she could theoretically treat more serious injuries, she lacked the necessary medical equipment.

She only had needles, thread, and cotton from an unknown source. She was truly powerless beyond basic treatments.

As for the medical rating, it served as a form of purchasing authority. More advanced medical equipment required a higher rating.

Reinette then turned her attention to a gift icon flashing in the upper-right corner.

"Alright, let's see what you've prepared for me."

[Primordial seal Water (Bloodline Item)]

[Upon use, the host will gradually transform into a Pure Water Spirit (Oceanid) . The transformation process is gentle and adopts a gradual transition strategy. The healer's original race will be progressively altered until the transformation is complete.]

"Pure Water Spirit you mean Oceanids? Like that thing from the game Genshin Impact?"

At first, Reinette thought this was referring to the Genshin Impact Oceanid But upon closer inspection, she realized a word was missing.

She clicked on the description.

---

[OCEANID]

A water-element lifeform that appears with an extremely low probability in a world. It possesses unique characteristics, conceptual abilities, and conceptual growth potential.

---

"It seems like the system made an error?"

Reinette narrowed her eyes. The phrase "extremely low probability" caught her attention. Who even knew what that probability was?

As for "unique characteristics," the rarity of its existence already made it special, so the phrase seemed redundant—almost like a marketing gimmick to inflate its value.

What truly interested Reinette were the latter two descriptions: conceptual ability and conceptual growth potential.

This world was far from peaceful.

Ordinary people might say mobile cities were safe while wastelands were dangerous due to robbers, infected creatures, or natural disasters.

But for those who truly understood, the reality was far worse. Beyond the borders of civilization, many unknown entities were lurking.

Reinette activated the primordial sea Water. Several droplets of azure blue water materialized in the air and merged into her body.

As the last droplet entered, she clenched her fists.

"Break free from my chains, my cage!"

...Nothing happened.

"I can't get free at all."

No matter how hard she tried, the iron hoops remained intact. Reinette sighed in frustration.

Her strength hadn't changed. But she raised her hand and summoned a ball of water, gradually increasing its size until it was large enough to envelop a person.

With a thought, the water dispersed into vapor, leaving the area slightly damp.

"Strong water manipulation... Let's test the limits later."

She reopened the panel.

"Hydraulics—the power of science!"

Reinette smirked as she used water pressure to break free from the iron restraints.

Now, it was time to plan her escape.
