This noise came from under the snow, and unlike other noises that also came from under the snow, the noise felt like something smooth gliding or rolling around on a snowy surface.
The Snowball monster was well-known for its unique habit to roll around when they moved extremely fast.
That gliding noise under the snow must be a Snowball monster approaching their trap!
Finley carefully distinguished the sound below the snow and felt that there should only be one Snowball monster, so he hurriedly told the other two students about this discovery.
"I heard the noise of one Snowball Monster and the monster is approaching us! Seniors, please get ready!"
The one who would play the biggest role in 'taming' the monster would be Delph rather than Celia because all she could do is to kill the monster.
Delph also understood this, so he held his breath nervously and tried to get the monster to inhale the fog that he had prepared before it could attack them.
This was not the first time Delph had some missions related to beasts and monsters or adventures in dangerous places.
The academy had already held various field trips over the years, so the students had some experiences more or less.
But Delph was still a bit nervous because even if the Snowball monster was only a mid-level monster, he was now in a strange place and before coming here, the staff already reminded the students to be extra careful.
Four Seasons Island was indeed dangerous and students like them could unknowingly die on this Island for various reasons.
Ainsley saw that Delph was nervous, but she didn't intervene and just patted the boy's arm as she stood next to him.
"It's okay, don't be nervous. As long as I am here, I will always ensure your safety and life."
Ainsley didn't say this without thinking at all and, to be honest, she did have the confidence to say that.
The previously nervous Delph strangely calmed down after hearing the confidence revealed in Ainsley's voice.
He had never seen Ainsley's abilities with his own eyes and had only watched her various battle videos, but judging from the videos alone, especially the war live broadcast...
He could trust the little instructor beside him with all of his heart.
Right after Delph calmed down, the noise from below the snow gradually became stronger and now, even without the help of the wind to eavesdrop, everyone could hear the faint noise under the snow.
Delph clenched his fists tightly as he kept his ring of fog as close to the ground as possible, just right around the piece of meat that Ainsley gave them.
Snowball monsters could eat anything, so it was not surprising that one would come to them just for a piece of meat.
The noise became louder and louder and if people carefully felt it, they would sense the slight trembling beneath their feet because the snow ground was not as stable as solid rock ground or soil ground.
It only took a few seconds for the gradual noise to become louder until one could see the slight change in the snow right below the meat.
The Snowball monster was well-known to be a good hunter underground and if it had to come up to the surface, they would only steal their prey or drag the prey underground.
Thus, if they were not careful, the monster would quickly steal the meat and they would not be able to catch this huge monster.
This monster did have a huge body but its head and limbs were small, which was why it liked to roll around to move rather than using its limbs.
When Delph saw the slight movement of the snow around the meat, he immediately moved his fog closer to the meat and before everyone could react...
Something strange suddenly came out of the snow beneath the meat, and it looked like the tip of an animal's mouth.
The tip was not that large and it was hard to see because the color was the same as the snow, and the movement was also as fast as lightning.
What the four people could see was just that tip of the mouth nimbly biting the edge of the meat and within seconds, it dragged the meat down to the unknown hole in the snow!
The monster was fast and precise, only aiming for the meat and didn't have any intention of attacking the humans around the meat.
However, Delph was even faster.
In that split second when the monster's nose and the tip of the mouth came out from the snow, the purple fog had already lingered around the nose and soon, the fog seeped into the body of the monster!
This fog was not an ordinary fog that confused the sight or relied on the sense of smell alone because apparently, the fog could seep into the target's body and make the hallucination effect stronger than ever.
Not to mention that the ability user who created the fog could wave the hallucination freely, relying on their detailed imagination.
What Delph created for the monster was naturally something that would attract the monster to come out of the snow without being aggressive to them.
So, he resolutely made a hallucination where the four humans were considered the monster's mother that this monster could not defy or attack.
Monsters didn't have delicate and complicated feelings like beasts, but the instinct engraved in their blood always made them surrender to stronger creatures other than humans or make them obey their blood mother wholeheartedly.
Reptile and insect monster was usually even more loyal to their blood mother or the leader of their small group.
