Everyone who was currently fighting on the battlefield had no idea that the bridge that magically appeared from a portal would be of an immense proportion. The allies of Jin were shocked and yet encouraged by the sudden flow of reinforcements but the enemies' morale had been severely hit by this move.

The High Command was scrambling to gather forces to counterattack but the sky bridge had made it rather hard for the Demon Rats to reach. It was near impossible unless individual teams of Demon Rats climb up buildings and jumped onto the sky bridge. It invalidated all the defences that the Demon Rats had prepared and thus they were desperately trying to bring the sky bridge down with whatever ranged weapons that they had at their disposal.

On the other hand, the Demopolis Army had it easier as they were in their war vehicles pushing through at top speed and killing anyone that they had spotted in the buildings. Even those Demon Rats who had risked their lives to jump onto the sky bridge were bull charged by the armoured cars.

Normally, it would have slowed down the pace of the advance guard but Baal was at the lead of the charge with Kiva at his side. "My Lord! Let's make this a trip to remember for this is our reunion!" Kiva exclaimed as he activated his magical ring, the only battle item which he was allowed to bring out since the rest of his arsenal had been confiscated by the System.

Still, with just his ring, he was able to conjure a wind barrier that not only knock unsuspecting Demon Rats who jumped to the sky bridge to get their bearings, but also those who had attempted to prepare a makeshift barricade against the vanguard.

In the meantime, Baal was standing tall at the top of the armoured car, unhindered by Kiva's shouting as well as the garbage hanging around the sky bridge. He was surveying the current battlefield to see how he should deploy his forces.

"Hmm. Marquis Forneus. The System just did a wide scan and noted a few places which might have the potential ability to destroy the sky bridge. Send your forces to those coordinates immediately." Baal told the Devil Dragon's Leader and the Marquis was all the more delighted to serve under the decisive Baal once again. With a resounding yes to his orders, he sent the Devil Dragons closest to those coordinates to survey and destroy whatever that might plague the current operations.

"Earl Barbatos, Dive down and remove those barricades. Half Ghoul Lord Derek would appreciate such an effort." Baal gave another order to the Lord of Giants and Barbatos who were hitching the rides on tanks immediately compiled to the order, leaping down from the sky bridges to sweep the barricades away. (When the trolls and giants did it, everyone on the sky bridge could feel a difference in the weight and its recoil and the tanks could move even faster without wasting too much mana.)

"Earl Furtfur, Get your Winged Hydras to disrupt the Demon Rat Variants before they receive the orders from their Demon Rat counterparts to intervene on our advancing army." Earl Furtfur took the orders at heart and with pride, commanding his Winged Hydras who were hovering above the Demopolis Army to split out and attack the Chimeras that were on the ground of the Undercity.

"Kiva." Now Baal finally gave the Bat Aristocrat the attention he craves.

"Yes, my lord!" Kiva was a little disappointed that he was not spoken with any noble title attached to his name. But at the same time…relieved and perhaps delighted? He assumed that Baal had decided to call him by his name only as a sign of possible friendship.

"No, do not overthink. Your title had been stripped for the heinous acts you committed in Demopolis. It shall remain so until you have proven yourself to me." Baal said and told him to get his bottleflies to engage against the Demon Flying Rats.

"Ha! That is one too easy of an order!" Kiva clearly disregarded what Baal had said and instantly relayed that command to his Bat Bottleflies. "Those disgusting replicas will be annihilated the moment they meet my tremendous force of Bat Bottleflies!"

To Baal's surprise, those Bat Bottleflies were surprisingly strong as they sought their prey and devoured them almost in an instant. The Flying Rats were not able to fight well compared to the Bat Bottleflie who were of similar size and with deadly agility to boot.

With just a few commands, the entire battlefield turned from a war of attrition to a near total annihilation of the Demon Rats. The Pandarens who were informed of the sudden event took whatever opportunity they could to enter the fray and attack any Demon Rats.

Even Xiong Da and his group of Pandawans had commandeered an armoured vehicle, racing through the sky bridge and went ahead to assist the Lord of Giants in destroying the barricades. At the same time, they put up new WARE events to ensure that the Pandarens were concentrating the fight so that the Demopolis Army could move unhinged towards the Demon Rat High Command.

"See, 'Master'. My King is capable of things that you would never achieve! Descend from your petty high throne and accede it to my King. Perhaps, he will-" Before Kiva could finish his sentence, Jin who was sitting at the back of the armoured car had already nudged Peppers to use a mute spell on him. As for his evaluation of Baal, Jin was undoubtedly impressed that his lords and ladies were able to follow his short commands until he remembered that Moloch was also handling the minions.

With the aid of Moloch's directing each individual company of Demon Soldiers to their respective places after Baal's orders, the groups were able to effectively coordinate the attacks.

And because of that, he and the other three were able to relax for now as his hard work of taking over Demopolis paid off. All he had to do was to wait until they either reached the High Command or the three Generals infected by the Lifestream energies were to appear.
