<p>Rhode wasn't interested in the aftermath of the battle between the Crystal Ape and the pitch-black tentacles. The moment he witnessed the Crystal Ape being wrapped by the dozen tentacles, he turned around and ran toward the other end of the stream. Even though shadowy creatures continued to give chase, Rhode spent no effort eliminating them without the worrisome threats of the Crystal Ape. In just a few seconds, he slaughtered every single one of the brazen shadowy creatures, before turning around and sprinting toward the Crystal Tower.</p>
