Data Hunter [New Star]

In the future world, data is power and consciousness is weapon. In the new Shanghai of 2089, giant corporations monopolize human thoughts and memories. "Data Hunter" Cheng Mo is the most dangerous member of the underground resistance organization. He possesses the rare "data synchronization" ability - he can temporarily quantize himself and shuttle between digital and reality. His mission is to steal corporate secrets and expose the dark truth. However, during an undercover operation against "New Era Technology", Cheng Mo discovered that the "consciousness uploading" technology being developed by CEO Lin Shicheng was not for immortality, but to harvest human consciousness and transform it into AI nourishment. What's even more frightening is that 127 people have disappeared during the experiment, including Lin Shicheng's wife, Lin Yutong's mother. Lin Yutong, a genius researcher of the new era, looks cold and ruthless, but in fact secretly collects evidence of his father's crime. When Cheng Mo breaks into her laboratory, the two are forced to work together to escape. They found: - There is a quantum bomb buried in Lin Yutong's mechanical spine, with a countdown of 7 minutes and 12 seconds; - Cheng Mo's brain coexists with the AI "Deep Blue" and reads memories that are not his own every 72 hours; - The undersea data center "Penglai" imprisons hundreds of thousands of plundered consciousnesses, including the fragments of Lin Yutong's mother.
