~8 min read 1,477 words

Situ Haitang had been following Xu Que the whole time, witnessing the entire manufacturing process, and was very surprised!

By the end, looking at the ice lollies appearing one after another, she couldn't help but widen her beautiful eyes and examine them with immense curiosity.

"Young Hero Zhuge, is this the ice lolly that can instantly replenish physical strength?" She looked at Xu Que and asked, still finding it hard to believe.

After all, these ice lollies just looked a bit strangely shaped and had no spiritual energy fluctuations.

Xu Que smiled slightly, picked up one of them, and handed it to Situ Haitang's lips: "Try it and you'll know!"

Situ Haitang was stunned for a moment, looked at the ice lolly in front of her lips, her delicate little nose moved slightly, sniffed the scent, and found it had a faint fragrance.

She didn't think much more and opened her small mouth, biting into the ice lolly with her pearly white teeth!

"Crack!"

A small piece of the ice lolly was bitten off by her.

Xu Que was startled, breaking into a cold sweat. This female warrior was too terrifying; eating an ice lolly was a wonderful thing, but she ate so much in one bite, it was truly too brutal!

"Ugh!"

At this moment, Situ Haitang suddenly covered her small mouth, widened her eyes, and looked at Xu Que, a series of soft "crackle" sounds coming from her mouth, as if many things were jumping!

She was startled herself, caught off guard, and subconsciously wanted to spit out the ice cubes in her mouth!

Xu Que hurriedly reached out to cover her lips and said: "Don't be nervous, that's called popping candy, used to increase the texture!"

Situ Haitang was confused, but didn't have time to think much, because she discovered that Xu Que's hand was actually covering her lips!

Even though she had spent many years with men in the army, she couldn't help but feel her cheeks heat up, and she stepped back with a flushed face, glaring fiercely at Xu Que with her beautiful eyes.

"Eh?"

At this moment, Situ Haitang suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

After the effect of the popping candy weakened, she discovered that a clear, sweet taste was emerging in her mouth, spreading toward her throat along her tongue.

Immediately after, her body shook suddenly, as if an invisible force was flowing rapidly along the meridians in her body.

In an instant, she was full of spirit.

The fatigue from several days of fighting without sleep and the busyness of the whole day was suddenly swept away at this moment.

She felt her mind suddenly become clear, very spirited, and her body radiated vitality, as if she had just woken up in the morning, incomparably comfortable!

"This... this is too magical, Young Hero Zhuge, I feel my body has changed!" Situ Haitang's eyes immediately shone with brilliance, very pleasantly surprised.

At this moment, she seemed to have forgotten her status as a general, forgotten the aggressive aura of her battlefield days, as if she had transformed into a little girl who had eaten a candy, incomparably cute and innocent.

Xu Que was astonished. It was just an ice lolly with popping candy, was she really that happy?

But he didn't know that what Situ Haitang was truly surprised by was far more than the deliciousness of the ice lolly; it was more about seeing the hope of victory.

She knew that even her strength at the second level of the Infant Transformation Stage could be revitalized and refreshed by this simple ice lolly.

If it were fed to other soldiers, the effect would definitely be no weaker.

With such a magical item, relying on the several thousand soldiers in Snow City, they would definitely be able to take down the Snow Mountain Holy Land!

"How is it, is it delicious?" Xu Que asked with a smile.

Situ Haitang reacted, suppressed the surprise in her heart, and nodded: "This item is not only delicious but also possesses such powerful effects; it is truly magical! Young Hero Zhuge is indeed a person with vast supernatural powers!"

"You're too kind! You're too kind!" Xu Que waved his hand with a smile!

Finally, over a hundred commoners took turns in shifts, working through the night to produce ice lollies.

Xu Que's soul power was also entrusted to the system, continuously controlling the final machine to condense ice lollies and sprinkle popping candy!

Until the evening of the next day, with everyone working together, they finally produced over ten thousand ice lollies.

And because the temperature here was extremely low, they didn't even need refrigeration; they were packed in boxes and Situ Haitang personally transported them out of the storeroom, ready to distribute them to the soldiers of Snow City!

As for those over a hundred commoners, Xu Que didn't treat them unfairly and distributed an ice lolly to each of them.

As a result, after eating them, they also exclaimed in surprise one after another.

At first, they were surprised by the magical texture of the popping candy, and finally, they were shocked by the effect of the ice lolly!

After all, they were mortal bodies, and after working busily for a whole day and night, their bodies and minds were exhausted, but now, after this one ice lolly, everyone felt full of energy, and they felt they could beat a demon beast with their bare hands!

"This ice lolly is truly too magical!"

"That's right, who would have thought that ice could be so different!"

"Young Hero Zhuge is truly amazing!"

"Too amazing!"

"Right, Young Hero Zhuge, this ice lolly is so magical, it should be given a name; we absolutely cannot use the common name 'ice lolly' anymore!"

At this moment, a commoner raised his hand and suggested.

Everyone heard this and nodded one after another: "Right, such a magical treasure should have a resounding name!"

"I think it could be called the Magical Stick!"

"Too direct, it should be more restrained, called the Great Stick!"

"No, look at the brown color of this item, and it has a similar effect to the legendary meat ganoderma, so it should be called the Ganoderma Stick!"

"Eh, this name is not bad, it's a wonderful name!"

"Hmm, very elegant!"

"It is indeed a very grand name, it can rival the legendary meat ganoderma!" Everyone nodded one after another, feeling very satisfied with the name "Ganoderma Stick" and praising it repeatedly.

Xu Que was chewing on an ice lolly, but when he heard everyone's words, he immediately "pfft" and sprayed out all the ice chips he had just chewed in his mouth.

Damn, Ganoderma Stick your sister, how could you think of such a name, and you actually think it's grand?

"Young Hero Zhuge, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Xu Que's reaction so strange, everyone stepped forward to express their concern.

Xu Que waved his hand and said: "I'm fine! Everyone go back and rest quickly, leave the naming to me. Oh no, actually I've already named it, it's called the 'Exploding Heaven Stick'!"

Exploding Heaven Stick?

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then praised one after another: "This name is good! Very appropriate, when you bite into it, there really is a feeling of exploding in your mouth! Young Hero Zhuge is truly learned and talented!"

"Low profile, low profile!" Xu Que waved his hand with immense pride.

The name given by this King of Acting Cool must be awesome!

Exploding Heaven Stick! You can explode the heavens after eating it!

Soon, the sun slowly set, and the evening sunset illuminated the snow-covered Snow City, reflecting the fervor in the hearts of the commoners and soldiers in the city!

Xu Que also received the news brought by someone sent by Situ Haitang that, thanks to the rush work of the craftsmen and soldiers, over eight thousand Kong Ming lanterns and paragliders had been manufactured!

After Xu Que went to check, he was very satisfied.

Although the workmanship was slightly rough, it didn't affect their function. Relying on these things to cross a canyon was absolutely more than enough!

"Young Hero Zhuge, what's the next step?" At this moment, Situ Haitang came to Xu Que's side again and asked in a low voice.

She was still confused about the Kong Ming lanterns and paragliders. Could these strangely shaped lanterns and large kites really carry eight thousand soldiers across the canyon?

Xu Que was unusually calm, gently shaking the feather fan in his hand, looking at the setting sun on the horizon, and a smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"Miss Situ... oh no, General Haitang, you can gather all the troops and prepare to set off! Tonight... we will launch a night raid on the Snow Mountain Holy Land!"
