It's only six o'clock, and the crew members haven't gotten up yet. Only two bodyguards are following Mark around.
At this time, a lot of people had already gathered near the hotel plaza to exercise.
A blonde woman in her early twenties, dressed in sportswear, is jogging.
She noticed Mark starting to run beside her and looked surprised.
After all, it's not common to see a child as young as Mark who enjoys running.
"Hey kid, you like running too?"
She slowed down and asked Mark with a smile.
"I've never run before, and now I want to test my speed and endurance."
Mark frankly stated his purpose.
"Oh, so this is your first time running!"
The blonde woman suddenly realized, and then enthusiastically explained the key points of running to Mark: "When you run for the first time, you need to pay attention to not lifting your legs too high, breathing through your nose, and keeping your shoulders relaxed..."
Under the guidance of the blonde beauty, Mark continuously adjusted his movements, and his speed also began to increase.
At first, the blonde woman was able to keep up with Mark's speed, but she was quickly left behind.
"Child! You can't run too fast, otherwise you won't be able to keep going for long and you'll easily tire yourself out..."
She tried to shout a reminder to Mark from behind.
But as Mark's figure receded into the distance, her mouth gaped open in astonishment: "Oh my God, how can that child run so fast!"
Even the two bodyguards behind Mark, who were used to regular exercise, began to feel the strain as time went on, and their gazes toward Mark were filled with shock.
Fortunately, Mark only ran one lap before stopping, otherwise they would have really embarrassed themselves.
"Not bad! It seems that my strength, speed and endurance are now no weaker than those of an average adult."
Mark nodded in satisfaction.
When he was running just now, he felt that his 6-year-old body was incredibly light, as if he was about to float away, without any effort at all.
At 8:00 a.m., Mark and the crew boarded the plane and began takeoff again.
As the sunlight shone on him, Mark not only gained sunlight value, but the cells in his body that had just undergone mutation were also constantly absorbing solar energy.
This absorption only stopped when Mark's body was completely filled with solar energy.
More than ten days later, Mark's vacation finally came to an end, and he temporarily terminated this long-haul flight.
"Thank you all for your hard work these past few days. Your bonuses will be doubled, and I'll give you another week off!"
After the plane arrived in Los Angeles, Mark announced loudly to the crew.
After more than twenty consecutive days of flying, even with the crew working in two shifts, they were all feeling exhausted. It was only right that Mark gave them some compensation.
"Oh! Long live the little boss!"
The crew members cheered excitedly, their fatigue seemingly vanishing instantly.
Although Mark, this small business owner, has some quirks, he likes to fly around in airplanes without any destination in mind.
But as long as he is generous, he is a good boss in everyone's eyes!
After announcing the holiday, Mark, escorted by two bodyguards, walked out of the cabin and down the gangway.
"Ouch!"
He had just stepped off the gangway when he heard a gasp behind him.
Mark turned his head and saw a flight attendant behind him who seemed to have twisted her ankle while going down the steps, and stumbled and fell downwards.
At this point, she was still more than ten steps from the ground. If she were to fall down like that, she would definitely suffer a serious fall.
Before Mark's two bodyguards could react, he had already stepped forward and reached out to catch the flight attendant who was lunging at him.
"careful!"
Mark said something and helped the flight attendant to her feet.
"Thank you."
The flight attendant was still a little shaken and thanked Mark in a daze.
The crew members who witnessed this scene were all astonished and stared wide-eyed.
They couldn't believe that Mark had such strength!
The flight attendant just now fell headfirst down the gangway. Her own weight, combined with the powerful inertia she was experiencing, would have made it difficult even for a strong adult man to catch her safely.
But Mark not only caught it, his body didn't even sway, it's unbelievable!
Ignoring the shocked looks on everyone's faces, Mark quickly left the airport under the protection of two bodyguards.
Chapter 47 Anomaly Detected
[Super Physique: LV5 (0/16000)]
Mark was secretly pleased with his super physique, which had been upgraded to level 5.
He had tested it before, and at this point, the pulling force of his single hand exceeded one ton, and he could easily overturn a small car with both hands.
What he just did was merely a small test for him.
In addition to a significant increase in strength, Mark's physical strength and endurance have also been greatly enhanced—otherwise, his body would not have been able to withstand the power he unleashed.
Mark had previously tested his body's defensive capabilities with a fruit-cutting dagger while at the hotel.
He used the strength of an average adult; the dagger could no longer pierce his skin, but it probably couldn't completely stop the bullets from his handgun.
Mark hailed a taxi and got in with two bodyguards.
"Mark, shall we go home now?"
The bodyguard, Sores, asked a question.
"No, we're going to the InterContinental Hotel on Hollywood Boulevard."
Mark said.
He spoke with Rosalie on the plane and learned that she wasn't home, but was in Hollywood attending a movie wrap party.
Rosalie recently starred in a movie called "John Wick," where she played the third female lead.
Now that the film has grossed over $200 million, the production company has invited all the crew members to a hotel for a celebration party.
Rosalie, who was longing to see her son, asked Mark to come directly to the hotel when she learned that he had returned.
Rosalie used to be just an extra, and even if she was invited to similar parties, she wasn't allowed to bring her family along.
But now that she plays an important role in a movie, no one will say anything when she brings her family to the party.
The taxi quickly stopped in front of the InterContinental Hotel.
Mark had just gotten out of the car when he saw Rosalie, dressed in a blue dress, waiting at the hotel entrance.
"mark!"
Rosalie excitedly stepped forward and hugged Mark tightly.
The mother and son had never been separated for such a long time before.
Although the two video chat every day, Rosalie still misses Mark dearly.
Rosalie then took Mark's hand and walked into the hotel.
The two bodyguards following Mark were stopped at the hotel entrance and were only allowed to pass after they surrendered the pistols at their waists.
However, they did not follow Mark into the main hall, but instead went to a side hall where bodyguards and drivers were housed.
"Haha, Director Gordon, congratulations on the box office success of your film this time!"
"Congratulations! Let's all make money together!"
"..."
Mark's ears twitched slightly, and the sounds of conversations and clinking glasses in the hotel lobby reached him clearly.
As Mark's superhuman physique improved, his five senses also increased dramatically. His vision, hearing, smell, and other senses far surpassed those of ordinary people.
As Mark followed Rosalie into the hall, he noticed that many people who had been talking around him seemed to be glancing at him, albeit subtly.
It's easy to guess that these people must have seen a previous CBS interview and recognized him as the person suspected to be Tony Stark's illegitimate son.
But the federal government publicly claims that at least 8,000 women have slept with or had children with Tony Stark every year.
Unless Tony Stark publicly acknowledges it, people naturally won't take Mark too seriously.
“Florin, Kelly, Riser…this is my child, Mark.”
Rosalie didn't care about the stares of others; she smiled and introduced Mark to some of her friends from the film crew.
Mark noticed that the people in the party hall were naturally divided into different circles according to their status and rank.
The people Rosalie knew were all of similar status and position to her in the film crew.
"Hello, I'm Mark."
Mark greeted everyone politely.
Wow! Rosalie, your child is so cute!
"Mark is so polite. I wish I had such a well-behaved child!"
"Rosalie, this is simply the best gift God has given you!"
"..."
The people around him praised him, and some actresses even looked at him with shining eyes, as if they wanted to rush up and kiss him.
After unlocking his super physique, Mark's skin regained its baby-like pink and smooth texture.
This made him, who was already handsome, even more attractive to these women.
After introducing these friends, Rosalie quietly introduced Mark to the three people standing in the center of the hotel lobby, surrounded by many people.
"That's Louis Gordon, the director of 'John Wick,' and next to him are Lucas Kane, the male lead, and Adele Evans, the female lead."
When Rosalie spoke of Adèle, Mark could hear the envy in her voice.
She seemed to want to be like him, attracting attention wherever she went.
Although Rosalie has now risen to the status of a third-tier actress in Hollywood, her status is still far from comparable to that of A-list stars like Adèle Blanc-de-lis.
"Lucas is the real tough guy. He personally performed a series of dangerous scenes in the movie, such as jumping off buildings, racing cars, and crashing cars, without using a stunt double at all!"
"That's right, I think Lucas is the next Stallone in Hollywood, that's a real man!"
"Adèle Blanc-de-Claude is also very beautiful in the movie, and her acting is excellent!"
"..."
Despite the noise in the hall, Mark could hear many people around him praising Lucas and Adèle.
Mark could even clearly hear Lucas and Louis whispering to each other.
"Director, what kind of drug did you inject me with during the last shoot? I felt a huge increase in strength and a much faster reaction time after the injection! Without this miracle drug, I probably wouldn't have been able to complete those difficult stunts."
"Don't ask so many questions! This medicine is very expensive. If it weren't for your talent in acting, I wouldn't have been willing to use it on you."
Hearing their conversation, Mark frowned. "Something's not right! What kind of drug did Louis inject Lucas with? There are many drugs in Marvel that can enhance the body, but most of them have side effects."
Malibu cliffside villas.
Shortly after Mark got off the plane, Jarvis reported his whereabouts to Tony Stark.
"This kid just got off the plane and went straight to the movie's wrap party?"
Tony Stark was initially surprised, then frowned: "John Wick... the name of that movie sounds familiar?"
"Sir, 'John Wick' is a film that Stark Pictures invested $5000 million in last year."
Jarvis reminded him.
"Oh... so it's a movie produced by our company. I'd love to go check it out!"
Seemingly having finally found an excuse, Tony Stark got up and walked outside.
