Over the past three months, he has raised his biofield to level 9.

【Biofield LV9: (0/512000)】

The level 9 biofield allows Mark to easily jump four or five hundred meters high and then hover briefly in the air.

Although the powerful Earth's gravity will eventually pull him back to the ground, preventing him from truly flying, Mark is already overjoyed.

"Maybe I can build a hang glider and use it to glide through the air after taking off!"

During the brief moment of suspension in the air, this thought arose in Mark's mind.

Flying has always been a human dream, and Mark is no exception.

Although Mark might be able to truly fly once he raises his biofield to level 10, he can't wait any longer.

He spent over ten million US dollars to purchase advanced materials such as titanium alloy composite pipes, carbon fiber materials, and polyester composite membrane fabrics for aviation, and then locked himself in the workshop on the plane to get busy.

Chapter Ninety-One: The Wind Rider

A week later, Mark completed the hang glider he had designed himself.

This hang glider can be folded and stored in a backpack, and will only fully unfold after pulling the slide lock.

An electromagnetic anti-gravity device is also installed under the glider to counteract some of the gravitational force.

If combined with Mark's biofield, he can glide in the air for even longer.

The glider's wing surface is coated with an infrared-eliminating coating and an electrochromic coating.

During flight, the wing surface color will automatically change according to the color of the surrounding environment.

It is virtually impossible for either optical reconnaissance satellites or infrared thermal satellites to detect the existence of this glider.

After building the hang glider, Mark couldn't wait to experience the feeling of flying.

Mark had just completed a year of school, and the school was about to start its promotion exams.

So he ended his flight and returned home.

The next morning, Mark and Li Qianle went to school together to take the promotion exam.

For this promotion exam, Mark chose to skip a grade.

Rosalie had already submitted her application to skip a grade to the school.

According to federal law, students are allowed to skip grades. Public schools allow students to skip only one grade at a time, while private schools allow students to skip two grades.

Mark's prestigious school is, of course, a private school, which means that Mark can skip directly from first grade to fourth grade.

If it weren't for the mandatory requirement under federal law, Mark, with his knowledge, wouldn't really need to waste his time staying in school.

Now that he has the opportunity to skip a grade, he certainly won't miss it.

Upon arriving at school, while other students took the promotion exam, Mark took the more difficult skip-grade exam.

Elementary school questions posed no difficulty for Mark, of course.

He easily answered all the questions in ten minutes, passed the exam with a perfect score, and became a fourth-grade student.

"Is this Mark Payne, the child prodigy we reported on recently? He really is a genius!"

"This kid is incredibly smart; his future achievements will certainly be no less than Tony Stark's."

"..."

Mark's brilliant performance once again amazed the teachers.

Mark was used to this and could only give an awkward but polite smile before leaving the school.

"Huh? That's... a fire?"

As soon as Mark returned to Payne Hill, his keen eyesight spotted a fifty- or sixty-story office building in downtown Los Angeles, dozens of kilometers away, billowing thick black smoke.

His pupils contracted slightly as he clearly saw the panicked crowd scattering in all directions inside the building.

At this time, more than a dozen fire trucks were parked below the building, but because the building was too tall, these fire trucks were unable to extinguish the fire on the upper floors.

Mark immediately returned to his workshop, took out the newly made hang glider, and put it on his back.

He then put on the electromagnetic pulse glasses, and the powerful force combined with the bio-force field to reduce gravity allowed him to leap to a height of four or five hundred meters in an instant.

By now, the clouds were beneath his feet, and Payne Manor on the ground looked as small as a toy model.

"brush!"

Mark deployed his glider, and propelled by both airflow and bio-force field, he hurtled like lightning toward the burning building dozens of kilometers away.

Flying at high speed in the air feels more exhilarating and faster than running on the ground!

In just five minutes, Mark had already flown to the top of the burning building.

A bio-force field enveloped his entire body, and the rising flames below could not cause him any harm.

"Ah, what is that?"

"It looks like a person!"

"..."

The crowd gathered downstairs, upon seeing Mark standing atop the building, gasped in disbelief.

Mark ignored them; he could already feel his body falling.

The burning fire drew away the air above, and the hang glider, deprived of air, could no longer glide.

Mark put the hang glider back into his backpack and landed on the roof of the building.

He could hear the heartbeats of 258 people inside the building below.

Especially on the 16th floor, where the fire was burning most fiercely, the heartbeats of more than ten people noticeably weakened, indicating that they were likely suffocating.

Mark jumped from the rooftop, and as he landed on the 16th floor, the bio-field pushed him through a window and into that floor.

Mark grabbed the two nearest people and jumped down with them.

"Oh no! Someone jumped off a building!"

The people downstairs gasped in surprise upon seeing this.

But their exclamations soon ceased.

Mark landed with the two men about ten meters above the ground, slowed down abruptly, and then casually tossed them to the ground.

Mark then leaped up again and rescued the remaining people one by one in the same way.

The people downstairs were all stunned as they watched Mark go back and forth to rescue people.

The firefighters around were stunned, not even noticing that the water hoses they were holding had fallen to the ground.

After some of the reporters realized what was happening, they took out their cameras and frantically pressed the shutter button on Mark's figure.

Only after rescuing all 258 people inside the building did Mark leap into the air again.

"brush!"

With his glider deployed, Mark's figure vanished as swiftly as lightning, accelerated by the bio-force field, just as suddenly as he had arrived.

It wasn't until Mark left that the crowd below erupted in discussion.

"Oh my god, what am I seeing? I must be dreaming!"

"Mom! I'm telling you, I just saw God!"

"..."

Everyone was excitedly discussing the scene of Mark saving people.

Ignoring the whispers behind him, Mark flew around Beverly Hills once, and only returned to Payne Manor after confirming that no one had noticed him.

That evening, major news channels and newspapers were filled with reports about Mark's rescue.

A reporter filmed the entire process clearly with a camera.

After the television station broadcast the footage, it immediately sparked heated discussions among countless viewers.

"My God! Is this person an angel sent by God to save people?"

"He must have used some high-tech equipment; no human could jump that high!"

"..."

In an era where superpowers are still extremely rare, Mark's public display of his abilities naturally sparked a media frenzy.

Some media outlets have even given Mark the nickname "The Wind Rider".

Many people and organizations who know the truth about the world have also become interested in Mark.

Washington, D.C., S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.

"Coulson, take a small team to Los Angeles, find this Wind Rider, and invite him to join S.H.I.E.L.D."

Nick Fury called Coulson over and assigned him the task.

Chapter Ninety-Two: Online Banking

Nick Fury has no plans to form the Avengers yet, but his obsession with collecting talent has never changed.

Whether it's a hacker, a mutant, or any other superhuman, he won't let them slip through his fingers once he discovers them.

Nick Fury was naturally impressed when he saw Mark demonstrate his superpowers in public.

For this reason, he even called Coulson back from his mission in Eastern Europe and assigned him the task of finding and recruiting Mark.

Coulson is currently only a Level 5 agent and does not have the authority to independently command a squad.

However, when Nick Fury was just the captain, Coulson was one of his trusted subordinates in the team, and he would naturally give him special opportunities to promote him.

But what Nick Fury didn't know was that in the intelligence chief's office not far from him, Jasper Sitwell was also on the phone.

“Mr. Pierce, Nick Fury has called Coulson back from Eastern Europe, possibly to send him to find that superhuman called Wind Rider.”

Jasper relayed the information he had obtained to his actual superior, Alexander Pierce.

"Hmph, Nick Fury is still the same old Nick Fury!"

Alexander snorted and ordered, "You send someone to keep an eye on Coulson and his group. Once they find that Wind Rider, you immediately send someone to contact him first and get him to join Hydra!"

"What if the other party doesn't agree?"

"If this Wind Rider doesn't know what's good for him, then send someone to take care of him. We absolutely cannot let him join S.H.I.E.L.D.!"

Trask Group.

Lawrence is in an underground laboratory, watching frame-by-frame footage of Mark saving people with a group of biologists who study mutants.

"Based on the analysis of the footage, this Wind Rider is definitely a mutant, and his mutant abilities are very strong!"

"He should possess immense strength, speed, reflexes, and another ability we don't yet understand—something akin to manipulating gravity!"

"If we can obtain his genetic sample, we may be able to create mutant clones that are no weaker than the X-series."

"..."

Based on Mark's behavior in the video, these biologists quickly drew their conclusions.

"Good! Immediately notify the action team to head to Los Angeles and find this Wind Rider at all costs. I need his genetic sample!"

After listening to everyone's analysis, Lawrence immediately made a decision.

Many individuals and organizations in the Federation who are interested in superhumans have sent people to Los Angeles in an attempt to find Mark's whereabouts.

But Mark had made ample preparations when he was about to take action.

The electromagnetic pulse glasses he wore on his face ensured that no one at the scene could clearly see his appearance.

His glider can also evade satellite detection, so he doesn't have to worry about being tracked down to his home.

The only distinctive feature people could notice about him was that he was only about 1.2 meters tall.

Many people speculate that he might be a dwarf, and they don't think that the person who saved him was a child.

Moreover, this is where the advantages of buying a luxury home in Beverly Hills become apparent.

After S.H.I.E.L.D., Hydra, Trask, and other organizations arrived in Los Angeles, they could mostly only investigate the Wind Riders' whereabouts in other places and could not openly send people into Beverly Hills.
