The consumer was a monster parasitized and mutated by a "mosquito".
It had changed its habit of sucking blood, turning its target toward the more nutritious human brain instead, but generally speaking, the feeding process was still the same—absorbed through the proboscis, then stored in the body.
Yu Xing stood downstairs at the apartment, watching a figure sway behind the shattered window on the second floor. In less than a few seconds, a headless monster corpse was thrown out from the window, landing right in front of him.
The "mosquito's" abdomen was plump and bulging, storing the undigested brain matter it had previously sucked out. That sinful scent, mixed with the mutated flesh of the monster, made Yu Xing's mouth water.
If he were human, he would definitely find this thing disgusting and ugly.
But he was only a tree.
Trees did not understand human aesthetics; he only knew that no matter what kind of thing it was, after turning into nutrients, they were all the same. The only difference was the level of nutrition. This monster... Oh, the system said it was called a consumer. This consumer's nutrition was slightly higher than the demon-man coachman, but lower than most of the food he had hunted just moments ago. It was probably because its monstery transformation was more thorough, yet its strength was too poor.

Of course he didn't eat using the mouth
