According to his own description, he was a player specialized in clearing dungeons, with high Inspiration and Willpower stats, making him suitable for exploring dungeon storylines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To put it plainly, he was a \"cowardly\" style player.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, being able to reach the top hundred on the combat power leaderboard by playing cowardly the whole way meant he had already reached the pinnacle of cowardly players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Priest's abilities, he was never suited for head-on combat, and coupled with his niche Inspiration specialty, his physical attributes were extremely low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, trapped within the Steam Rules, his combat power could be said to be at the bottom of all players; what could he possibly do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Xing’s gaze toward the Priest became strange. Could it be that this guy had been playing mind games with them, selectively describing his abilities to hide his true strength, and only exposed it now because he couldn't keep up the act?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their unfriendly expressions, the Priest hurriedly explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His class advancement was called Divine Covenant Priest. Unlike other classes, his ultimate skill was not a transformation or a special combat buff, but rather communicating with the gods of the dungeon plane to reach a Divine Covenant and borrow certain powers from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His ultimate skill had complex activation requirements: first, the dungeon plane must have a religion; second, the deity worshipped by that religion must be real—for example, the original Holy Lord of Stilan could not respond to his Divine Covenant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, the worshipped deity must be powerful; if it were only an ordinary native deity, it wouldn't be able to lend him much power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, and most importantly, a Divine Covenant is a contract, meaning it must be two-way. He borrows power from the deity, and he must provide corresponding compensation afterward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the skill was complex to use, once the Divine Covenant succeeded, the combat power gained was equally substantial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as the covenant was formed, he could gain power not inferior to top-ranked players for the duration of the covenant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a top-tier cowardly player, simply \"joining them if you can't beat them\" wasn't enough to get the Priest into the top hundred of the combat power leaderboard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, while clearing dungeons, he had sensed the presence of two deities. Their auras often appeared in dungeon planes, making it easy to recognize them as coming from the Serene Church and the Apocalypse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Priest dared not easily touch the evil gods of the Believer Circle. The Divine Covenants signed with them were all severely unequal treaties, and the borrowed power might even have side effects. He would rather use an item to leave the dungeon than deal with these evil gods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just now, when he looked at the Grey Church, he sensed the aura of a third deity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Influenced by the deity's aura, his ultimate class skill, which had been unusable due to the Steam Rules, lit up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant the other party was not a demigod with only a divine seed, but a true god with awakened divinity. Only divinity could break through the blockade of the plane's rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>More importantly, the divinity of the god in the Grey Church was warm and peaceful. Through his Inspiration, it felt as if he were lying on a spring meadow, being blown by a gentle breeze, completely different from the dark, twisted, and psychedelic evil gods of the Believer Circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, as the price for borrowing the ability, the compensation required was not high—merely completing missionary work in three planes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For him, this kind of compensation was no different from receiving a gift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, I just used my ultimate class skill and borrowed power from that deity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan and Jian Xing looked at the Priest in surprise. The Wilderness World players were indeed full of hidden talents; they hadn't expected that this inconspicuous Priest they had saved on a whim could actually borrow the power of a god.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Priest said with some excitement:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The power I borrowed from that deity can temporarily disperse the surrounding Steam Rules. Do you have any movement skills? If so, you can prepare now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Xing injected energy into Changfeng. The sword Qi of Changfeng vibrated, condensing into two sword-Qi avatars that hovered beneath Leng Shan and the Priest, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am ready.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan did not hold back either. He increased his energy output and pushed his hands forward. Three ice walls condensed from the power of the Source of Cold rose out of thin air, blocking the magic-breaking bullets fired from afar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Priest did not hesitate and immediately channeled his energy to use the divine power borrowed from the deity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Covenant activated, and it felt as if a black hole had appeared in his body, devouring the energy stored within him at a terrifying speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just a single breath, ten percent of the energy in his body was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The energy consumption was terrifying, but the effect was completely worth it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the energy was injected, a cluster of white holy fire appeared above his head. As soon as the holy fire appeared, the oppressive smog surrounding the three of them instantly dissipated, and even the air became a bit fresher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their bodies felt lighter. Under the protection of the white holy fire, the three were temporarily unaffected by the Steam Rules, and the use of all their skills was no longer hindered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Xing pinched a sword incantation, and the flying sword carried the three of them, turning into a stream of light as they rushed toward the Grey Church slums.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the white holy fire clearing the way, the three moved extremely smoothly, crossing five hundred meters in a few seconds and entering the slum area before the Executioner could make its next interception move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they entered the slums, the three felt the difference instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Jian Xing had said before, the area inside the slums and the Grimlan outside were like two different worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grey Church slums were not only quiet and peaceful, free from the filth and chaos of most areas in Grimlan, but they were also completely unaffected by the Steam Rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan and Jian Xing looked at each other; perhaps they could win under these circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only problem now was how to lure the Executioner inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before they could think of a way, they saw the fog outside the slums churning. The Executioner, driving the steam carriage, smashed through the ice wall Leng Shan had left behind, accelerated without stopping, and charged straight into the slum area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering the slum area, the sudden disappearance of the Steam Rules made the Executioner pause for a moment, but it did not retreat, continuing to drive the carriage until it stood before the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Executioner stepped out from the driver's seat of the steam carriage and looked down at Leng Shan and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan looked up at the Executioner, who was over four meters tall, and asked Jian Xing beside him:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I'm not mistaken, has it gotten bigger?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jian Xing replied: \"It has indeed gotten bigger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Irene’s Divine Kingdom could isolate the influence of the Steam Rules, it could not stop the First Law of Mysticism in the dungeon plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the battle on White House Street, a large number of transcendents and ordinary people felt fear toward the Executioner, believing in their hearts that it was invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boosted by people's cognition, the Executioner's power increased further, and even without relying on the Steam Rules, its strength had grown to boss-level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because of this, it dared to ignore Irene’s Divine Kingdom and chased them all the way in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Leng Shan and Jian Xing were amazed at the Executioner's growth, they would only know if they could win after clashing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two coordinated their actions, and as before, Jian Xing attacked first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without the Steam Rules, the thread-like sword Qi surrounding the flying sword Changfeng could be released to its heart's content. The sword Qi rotated like a drill, stabbing toward the Executioner's chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the Executioner did not let the flying sword pierce its chest; instead, it swung its serrated long blade, intercepting Changfeng in mid-air with a single strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two collided, and the Steam Source power within the Executioner exceeded Jian Xing's; Changfeng could not withstand it and was swatted away by the blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan's attack followed immediately. This time, he did not use ice cones, but condensed an iceberg that rose from beneath the Executioner, sealing it directly inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the iceberg formed, countless sharp ice spikes gathered near the Executioner and stabbed at it, resembling a large, icy version of an iron maiden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing Leng Shan's attack, the Executioner also displayed astonishing adaptability. Although its body was temporarily controlled by the iceberg after being struck by the power of the Source of Cold, it did not fall into a frozen state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Red patterns flashed on the surface of its body, just as when it had devoured a large amount of coal essence on White House Street. The immense heat catalyzed into a large amount of Steam Source power, instantly melting the ice around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ice spikes prepared to pierce the Executioner melted under the steam before they could even get close to its body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Executioner was in no hurry to break out of the iceberg; instead, it raised its left hand in place. At this moment, its left hand had transformed into a flesh-and-blood great gun, the muzzle even thicker than it had been on White House Street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, this flesh-and-blood gun, inherited from the Gun God, had devoured enough flesh and blood of transcendents in previous battles. The threat it radiated through the iceberg was enough to make Leng Shan and Jian Xing feel palpitations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power contained within the muzzle was enough to raze the entire Grey Church slum to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the world of transcendents, the power contained within the Executioner's muzzle was a non-radiating transcendent nuclear weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bead of sweat fell from Leng Shan's temple. The scene before them was undoubtedly the worst situation when clearing a dungeon: being crushed by the boss's raw power with no room for operation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without needing to communicate, he and Jian Xing simultaneously pulled out items to forcibly leave the dungeon and activated them. Abandoning a world dungeon was certainly a heavy loss, but as long as they kept their lives, anything was possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the items for leaving the dungeon flashed with light, a white light flickered before their eyes. When they regained their vision, they found themselves still facing the Executioner's pitch-black muzzle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, what is going on?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan and Jian Xing widened their eyes, discovering it was not an illusion; they were still standing in place and had not left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon careful inspection, they found a line of prompts popping up before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Affected by special rules, players are currently unable to forcibly leave the dungeon. Please leave the current area and try again later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief system crash, the usually calm Leng Shan slowly spat out one word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn it!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heping only said the Grey Church slums could isolate the Steam Rules; he didn't say it could also prevent players from leaving the dungeon!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Wu Chang could hear what Leng Shan was thinking, he would surely reply:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a surprise. The Grey Church slums are Irene’s Divine Kingdom, a deity's exclusive area. Even the plane's own rules cannot interfere. If players could come and go as they pleased, wouldn't the deity lose face?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan was truly panicked now. In the past, while clearing dungeons, although he had encountered life-and-death crises more than once, he had never reached a dead end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What made him even more unwilling was that if he had tried his best and failed to clear the dungeon, and then, after discovering the truth of the dungeon, narrowly lost to the boss, that would still be dying like a breaker of the game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the Steam Phantom dungeon, he had been slacking off for almost the entire first half, spending half the dungeon as an undercover agent. Before he could even exert his strength, the dungeon boss had appeared right in his face, intending to crush him with absolute power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of death without any sense of participation was even more unacceptable to him than death itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Leng Shan were to die at the hands of the Executioner at this moment, the resentment formed would at least be of the \"purple-red\" level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, in Irene’s Divine Kingdom, dying was not that easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Leng Shan and Jian Xing could not see it, a wall made of white holy fire had already risen before them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This ability, composed of divine power and involving the rules of a mid-level god, was enough to block all of the Executioner's attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Receiving the gift left by the Great Mother and beginning to master the power of the Undying Holy Fire—this was Irene’s harvest in the slums these days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through her healing experiences in the slums these days, Irene’s understanding of both herself and her abilities had improved significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Quiet Town plane, when she was in the Royal City of Ogre, she often visited various parts of the city to help the lower-class people in need.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at that time, she was, after all, a Saintess. The places she went were restricted to some extent, and she would not see the truly dark places of the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To some extent, she had been under some form of protection all along and did not truly know what the world was like.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although she wouldn't say something like Emperor Hui of Jin, \"Why don't they eat meat porridge,\" or like Queen Marie Antoinette, \"Why don't they eat cake if they can't afford bread,\" she would say, \"If you're sick, go see a doctor; if you encounter difficulties, go to the church for help.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to her perspective, Irene’s understanding of the world was not deep. To put it nicely—or rather, to put it bluntly—she thought that \"goods grow on shelves by themselves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she didn't even understand the rules and order by which the world operated, how could she comprehend the ability to control the world's rules and order?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because of this, her comprehension of the Dominions' abilities had always been at a bottleneck, unable to grasp the essence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But with this period of experience, as she continuously contacted the lowest-class poor and communicated with them, she began to know that some people truly had nothing, and many things she took for granted were as difficult as ascending to heaven for many people to touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She began to understand the basic rules of social operation, and through the rules of human society, she felt the Steam Rules wandering above Grimlan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the plane's Steam Rules, she saw the Dominions' ability to control the operation of world order, and based on her mastery of the Dominions' abilities, she touched upon the Undying Holy Fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current Yu Ailin already possessed the genuine power of a Dominion Angel, becoming the pinnacle of a Lesser God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the Divine Kingdom, she still needed to be wary of plane rules and exercise some restraint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But within the Divine Kingdom, for a character like the Executioner, she could flatten or round him however she pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Toward a life form like the Executioner that had transcended humanity, she felt no pressure at all when taking action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Yu Ailin was worrying that the sound of an explosion would disturb the rest of the people in the slums and debating whether to finish the Executioner off directly, she suddenly sensed something and stopped her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just before the moment the Executioner’s gun barrel emitted flames and was about to fire, a voice like a thunderclap descended from the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Man!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Chang dropped from high altitude, relying on his strength stat; his elbow, like a sharp axe, cleaved through the Bingshan that had been melted by the impact of the steam rules and smashed straight into the Executioner’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Executioner staggered; he did not understand why, having become a mechanical life form, he would still feel dizzy from being elbowed in the head, but he was indeed dizzy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only was he dizzy, but his entire body was sent flying by the elbow strike bolstered by over three hundred points of strength, smashing through the Bingshan and rolling along the ground for dozens of meters; in the moment of his mental confusion, the shot gathering at the muzzle of his gun naturally dissipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Chang retracted his elbow, turned his head, and said to Leng Shan and Xiang Jianxing, \"Glad I made it in time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leng Shan warned, \"Be extremely careful, that guy is not an ordinary Steam Councilor.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Leng Shan had heard that Peace had once repelled the Joy that descended upon the Desolate Realm, it was only hearsay after all, and he had not witnessed it personally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one knew how much strength the Joy could retain when descending to the Desolate Realm under the suppression of the Desolate Realm's rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had not seen the descending Joy, but he had truly seen the Executioner of an S-rank dungeon on the verge of losing control, and he had seen him kill over a dozen top-tier Desolate Realm players and dozens of native dungeon transcendents with a single casual shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This kind of lethality was something even players who returned to the Desolate Realm from the Pillar of the Present World while capping their limits could not achieve.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, the Steam Phantom was the Executioner's home turf; even Peace could potentially flip over if he were careless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Chang nodded, his gaze turning back to the Executioner, his eyes full of excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the Executioner, he rarely saw Blood Wills, deep crimson Blood Wills.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the Steam Phantom dungeon, most of the resentment he saw came from small fry and could only provide information; this time, he had finally seen something beneficial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Executioner had finished off over a hundred transcendents on Baishe Street; he did not know if those transcendents had died too quickly or if it was the influence of the plane rules, but there were only a dozen or so strands of resentment attached to the Executioner, and none of them had reached deep crimson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only two deep crimson Blood Will-level resentments on the Executioner did not come from Baishe Street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The owner of one of the resentments was named Multi-Hand, who was killed by the Executioner while hunting transcendents earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Chang recognized the other person; it was the Gun God who had assassinated Nestor and Ma Jia’s clone using anti-magic bullets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of him, Wu Chang had taken people to wipe out the high-level Conservative Party members tonight, turning them all into weather dolls; he hadn't found the Gun God when looking for him and thought he had run away, but he hadn't expected that after the Gun God finished playing the hunter and killed Nestor and Ma Jia’s clone, he turned around and became the Executioner's prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blood Wills in the two people's resentment were very pure, and both demanded: [Eliminate the Executioner and avenge me.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He liked such pure players; their resentment was just about revenge, without all those fancy bells and whistles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A negative example was his cousin Schultz, who left behind that Blood Will; he still had no clue how to complete that will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting aside the two people's resentment for revenge for the moment, Wu Chang quickly browsed through their resentment and discovered a common point between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of their abilities were compatible with the steam rules and were not affected by them, allowing them to exert their full strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was their advantage, but it also became the reason they were targeted by the Executioner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By stitching himself with Multi-Hand, the Executioner transformed from a half-human, half-mechanical cyborg into a pure mechanical life form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stitching with the Gun God's arm, he inherited the Gun God's ability to turn his flesh into a gun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Combined with the warnings from Leng Shan and Xiang Jianxing behind him, he also saw the anti-magic steam press core embedded in the Executioner's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This three-piece set, combined with the steam rules, could be called a transcendent-de-materializer; no wonder it could initiate a one-key sweep on Baishe Street and easily kill over a hundred transcendents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He refused the offer of help from Leng Shan and Xiang Jianxing and walked toward the Executioner with long strides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Multi-Hand and the Gun God's abilities were good; he wanted them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of this chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",3493,"2026-06-20T04:32:05.714Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","2320a88433c66dc651ab86913449a9a5c7fe6f448ef77be34477aaf7eaa350e3","the-dungeon-has-zero-tolerance-i-inherited-all-t-chapter-375","the-dungeon-has-zero-tolerance-i-inherited-all-t-chapter-373",392,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dungeon-has-zero-tolerance-i-inherited-all-t-cover.jpg"]
