Chapter 388: Eternal Holy Fire
"You?" Leng Shan and Jian Xing looked at the priest with suspicion in their eyes.

During the escape, they asked the priest about his specialties. According to the priest's own description, he was a player specialized in dungeon clearance, with specialties in inspiration and willpower, which made him suitable for exploring dungeon plots.

To put it simply, they are players who only care about their lives.

But the fact that he was able to get into the top 100 in the combat power list by surviving all the way means that he has reached the pinnacle of surviving players.

With the ability of a priest, he is not suitable for frontal combat. In addition, his niche inspiration specialty makes his physical attributes extremely low.

Now that he is in the Steam rules, his combat power can be said to be the last among all players. What can he do?
Jian Xing looked at the priest with a strange look. Could it be that this guy had been playing tricks on them before, selectively describing his weaknesses and only revealed himself when he couldn't pretend any longer?

Seeing that the two men looked unhappy, the priest hurriedly explained.

His job name is Divine Contract Priest, and the ultimate skill of the job is different from other job names. It is not a transformation or special status bonus combat skill, but it is to communicate with the gods in the copy plane, reach a divine contract, and borrow certain powers of the gods.

The requirements for activating his ultimate skill are complex. First, there must be a religion in the dungeon plane. Second, the religion must worship the real thing. For example, the original Holy Bishop of Stian would not be able to respond to his divine contract.

Then the god being worshipped must be strong. If it is just an ordinary native god, there will not be much power that can be lent to him.

Finally, and most importantly, since it is a contract, it must be two-way. He borrows power from the gods and must make corresponding rewards afterwards.

The use of skills is so complex, and once the divine contract is successful, the combat power gained will be equally rich.

As long as a divine contract is formed, he will be able to obtain power that is no less than that of ranked players during the duration of the divine contract.

As a top player of the survival type, just joining when one cannot defeat others is not enough for the priest to enter the top 100 of the combat power rankings.

When he was conquering the dungeon before, he had felt the auras of two gods. Their auras often appeared in the dungeon plane and could be easily recognized as coming from the Church of Tranquility and the Book of Revelation.

The priest dared not to be easily contaminated by the evil gods in the circle of believers. The divine contracts signed with them were all seriously unequal treaties, and the borrowed power might even have side effects. He would rather use props to escape from the copy than deal with these evil gods.

But just now, when he looked at the Gray Church, he felt the breath of the third god from it.

Influenced by the aura of God, his ultimate skill for job transfer, which could not be used due to the steam rules, was revealed.

This means that the other party is not just a demigod with only the seed of divinity, but a true God with awakened divinity. Only divinity can break through the blockade of the plane rules.

More importantly, the divinity of the god in the gray church was warm and peaceful. Through inspiration and perception, he felt as if he was lying on his back on a spring meadow, feeling the gentle spring breeze. This was completely different from the dark, twisted and psychedelic evil gods in the circle of believers.

Moreover, as the price for borrowing abilities, the other party did not ask for much compensation, just to complete the missionary work in three dimensions.

For him, this kind of compensation is no different from welfare.

"So, I just used the ultimate skill of my job transfer to borrow the power from that god."

Leng Shan and Jian Xing looked at the priest in surprise. The players in the wasteland were indeed full of hidden talents. They didn't expect that this seemingly inconspicuous priest who was rescued by chance could actually borrow the power of the gods.

The priest said excitedly:
"The power I borrowed from that god can temporarily dispel the surrounding steam rules. Do you have the skills to move quickly? If so, you can prepare now."

Jian Xing injected energy into Chang Feng. Chang Feng's sword energy vibrated and condensed into two sword energy incarnations, which floated under Leng Shan and the priest, and said:

"I'm ready."

Leng Shan did not hold back at this moment. He increased his energy output and pushed his hands forward. Three ice walls condensed from the source of coldness rose up out of thin air and blocked the magic-destroying bullets shot from afar.

"Now!"

The priest did not dare to hesitate and immediately mobilized his energy and used the divine power borrowed from the gods.

The divine contract was activated, and it was as if a black hole appeared inside his body, devouring the energy stored in his body at an extremely terrifying speed.

In just a breath of time, the energy in his body was reduced by 10%.

The energy consumption is horrible, but the effect is totally worth it.

As energy was injected, a ball of white holy fire appeared above their heads. As the holy fire appeared, the oppressive haze surrounding the three people immediately dissipated, and even the air became a little fresher.

The three of them felt lighter, and under the protection of the white holy fire, they were temporarily unaffected by the steam rules, and the use of all their skills was no longer affected.

Jian Xing made a sword gesture, and the flying sword carried the three people and turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the Gray Church Slums.

With the white holy fire above their heads leading the way, the three men moved very smoothly. They crossed 500 meters in a few seconds and entered the slum area before the executioner could make the next interception move.

As soon as they entered the slums, the three of them instantly felt different.

Just as Jianxing said before, the area inside the slums and Grimland outside are like two different worlds.

The Grey Church Slums are not only quiet and peaceful, without the filth and mess of most areas of Grimland, but they are also completely unaffected by the rules of steam.

Leng Shan and Jian Xing looked at each other. If it were under such circumstances, maybe they could win.

The only problem now is how to trick the executioner in.

Before they could think of a solution, they saw fog surging outside the slums. The executioner drove a steam carriage and directly smashed the ice wall left by Leng Shan. He accelerated all the way and rushed straight into the slums.

Entering the slum area, the sudden disappearance of the steam rules made the executioner stunned for a moment, but he did not retreat and continued to drive to the three people.

The executioner walked out from the driver's seat of the steam carriage and looked down at Leng Shan and the other two.

Leng Shan looked up at the executioner who was over four meters tall, and asked Jian Xing beside him:

"If I'm not mistaken, has he gotten bigger?"

Jianxing replied: "He has indeed grown bigger."

Although Irene's kingdom of God can isolate the influence of steam rules, it cannot prevent the first law of mysticism in the copy plane.

After the battle on Baishe Street, a large number of extraordinary people and ordinary people became afraid of the Executioner and believed that it was invincible.

With the bonus of people's cognition, the Executioner's power increased further, and even without relying on the steam rule, his strength grew to the BOSS level.

It was for this reason that he dared to ignore Irene's kingdom of God and chased all the way in.

Although Leng Shan and Jian Xing were amazed at the Executioner's growth, they still had to fight to know whether they could win.

The two of them coordinated their actions, and Jianxing still attacked first.

Without the steam rule, the strands of sword energy surrounding the flying sword Changfeng can be released freely. The sword energy rotates like a drill and pierces towards the executioner's chest.

This time the executioner did not let the flying sword pierce his chest, but swung the serrated long knife and intercepted Changfeng in mid-air with one blow.

The two collided, and the steam source power in the executioner's body exceeded Jianxing. Changfeng was unable to resist and was knocked away by the knife.

Leng Shan's attack followed closely. This time he did not use an ice cone, but condensed an iceberg. The iceberg rose from under the feet of the executioner and directly sealed him in it.

The iceberg solidified, and the part close to the executioner gathered countless sharp ice spikes that stabbed the executioner, like an iceberg version of a large iron virgin.

Facing Leng Shan's attack, the Executioner also showed amazing adaptability. He was attacked by the power of the cold source again. Although his body was temporarily controlled by the iceberg, he did not fall into a frozen state.

Red lines flashed on the surface of his body, just like when he swallowed a large amount of jet essence on Baishe Street. The huge amount of heat catalyzed into a large amount of steam source power, which instantly melted the ice around him.

The ice spike that was about to pierce the executioner melted under the steam before it could get close to his body.

The executioner was not in a hurry to break the iceberg, but raised his left hand on the spot. At this moment, his left hand turned into a flesh and blood spear, and the muzzle of the gun was thicker than before on Baishe Street.

Not only that, this flesh-and-blood spear inherited from the Gun God has devoured enough flesh and blood of extraordinary people in previous battles. The threat it emanates through the iceberg is enough to make Leng Shan and Jian Xing feel uneasy.

The power contained in the muzzle of the gun is enough to raze the entire Gray Church Slum to the ground.

In the world of extraordinary people, the power contained in the executioner's gun is an extraordinary nuclear weapon without radiation.

An ice bean fell from Leng Shan's forehead. The current scene was undoubtedly the worst situation when conquering a dungeon, that is, the hard power was crushed by the BOSS, and there was no room for maneuver at all.

Without any communication, he and Jian Xing simultaneously took out the props that could force them to leave the dungeon and activated them directly. Giving up the world dungeon would certainly result in heavy losses, but as long as they were alive, everything was possible.

As the props that left the copy flashed with light, a white light flashed before the eyes of the two men. When they waited for their vision to recover, they found that they were still facing the black muzzle of the executioner's gun.

No, what's the situation?

Leng Shan and Jian Xing opened their eyes wide and realized it was not an illusion, so they stood where they were and did not move.

After careful inspection, I found a line of prompts popping up in front of me.

"Due to special rules, players are currently unable to forcibly leave the dungeon. Please leave the current area and try again later."

After a brief outage, Leng Shan, who was always calm, slowly uttered a word.

Hey!
Heping only said that the Gray Church Slums can isolate the steam rules, but did not say that it can also prevent players from leaving the dungeon!
If Wu Chang could hear what Leng Shan said in his heart, he would definitely reply:
How fresh! The Gray Church Slums is Irene's kingdom of God, the exclusive area of ​​God. Even the rules of the plane itself cannot interfere. Players can come and go as they please. Don't Gods have any face?

Leng Shan was really panicked now. Although he had encountered life-and-death crises more than once during his previous dungeon raids, he had never reached a dead end.

What made him even more unwilling was that if he tried his best but failed to conquer the dungeon, and finally lost to the BOSS after discovering the truth about the dungeon, he would also die like a breaker.

But in the Steam Phantom dungeon, he almost slacked off throughout the early stage and spent half of the dungeon as an undercover agent. Before he could exert his strength, the dungeon BOSS stood right in his face, ready to crush him with absolute strength.

This way of dying without any sense of participation was more unacceptable to him than death itself.

If Leng Shan died at the hands of the executioner at this moment, the resentment formed would be at least at the red to purple level.

But in Irene's kingdom of God, it is not so easy to die.

Although Leng Shan and Jian Xing couldn't see it, a wall of white holy fire had already been erected in front of them.

This ability, composed of divine power and involving the rules of mid-level gods, is enough to block all attacks from the executioner.

Accepting the gift left by the Mother Mary and beginning to master the power of the Eternal Holy Fire, this is what Irene gained in the slums these days.

After these days of rescue experience in the slums, Irene has greatly improved her understanding of herself and her abilities.

In the Quiet Town plane, when she was in the Royal City of Ogri, she often visited various parts of the city to help the lower-class people in need.

But she was a saint after all, and the places she went were limited to a certain extent, so she would not see the truly dark places in the world.

To some extent, she has been under some kind of protection all the way and does not really know what the world is like.

Although she would not say like Emperor Hui of Jin, "Why not eat meat porridge?" or like Queen Mary, "Why not eat cake if you can't afford bread?", she would say that if you are sick, you should see a doctor, and if you encounter difficulties, you should go to the church for help.

Due to perspective issues, Irene's understanding of the world is shallow. To put it nicely, she is naive; to put it bluntly, she believes that "goods will grow out of the shelves by themselves."

If she doesn't even truly understand the rules and order that govern the operation of the world, how can she comprehend the ability to control the rules and order of the world?
Because of this, her understanding of the Lord Angel's abilities has always been at a bottleneck, and she has not been able to grasp the key points.

But with the experiences during this period, as she continued to come into contact with and communicate with the poorest people, she began to realize that some people really have nothing, and many things that she took for granted are extremely difficult for many people to get.

She began to understand the basic rules of how society operates, and then through the rules of how human society operates, she felt the steam rules that were hovering over Grimland.

Through the steam rules of the plane, she saw the ability of the Lord Angel to control the operation of the world order, and based on her mastery of the Lord Angel's abilities, she touched the Eternal Holy Fire.

Now Irene has possessed the true power of the Lord Angel and has become the pinnacle of the lower gods.

Outside the kingdom of God, she still needs to consider the rules of the plane and be restrained.

But within the kingdom of God, for example, for a role like the executioner, she can flatten it as she pleases, or round it as she pleases.

She felt no pressure at all when dealing with the executioner, a life form that was separated from human beings.

Just when Irene was worried that the sound of the explosion would disturb the people in the slums from resting and was wondering whether she should just kill the executioner, she suddenly sensed something and stopped.

Just before flames came out of the executioner's gun barrel and were about to burst out, a sound like thunder came from the sky.

"Man!"

Wu Chang fell from a great height, and relying on his strength, his elbow was like a sharp axe, splitting the iceberg that had been mostly melted by the impact of the steam rule, and smashing it directly on the executioner's face.

The executioner staggered. He didn't understand why he, who had already turned into a mechanical life, still felt dizzy after being elbowed in the head, but he was indeed dizzy.

Not only was he dizzy, but he was also knocked flying by an elbow that was empowered by more than 300 points of power, smashing through the iceberg and tumbling dozens of meters on the ground. While he was in a trance, the bullet from the gun in his hand naturally dissipated.

Wu Chang retracted his elbow, turned to Leng Shan and Jian Xing and said, "Luckily we made it in time."

Leng Shan warned: "Be careful, that guy is not an ordinary steam councillor."

Although Leng Shan had heard that Heping had repelled the joy that had descended upon the wilderness, it was only hearsay after all, and he had never actually witnessed it.

No one knows how much strength Huanxi can retain after arriving in the Wilderness and being suppressed by the rules of the Wilderness.

He did not see the joy of arrival, but he really saw the S-level Executioner in the copy that was on the verge of getting out of control. He saw that he could kill more than a dozen top players in the wilderness and dozens of extraordinary people native to the copy with just a single shot.

This kind of lethality cannot be achieved even by players who are stuck at the upper limit of the Pillar of the Real World and return to the Wilderness from the Realm of Reason.

Besides, Steam Phantom is the Executioner's home ground. Even in peacetime, if you are careless, you may fail.

Wu Chang nodded and turned his gaze back to the executioner, his eyes full of excitement.

He rarely saw bloody last words on the bodies of the executioners, deep red bloody last words.

Entering the Steam Phantom copy, most of the resentment he saw came from small fry, who could only provide information. This time he finally saw something useful.

The executioner killed hundreds of extraordinary people on Baishe Street. I don’t know if it was because those extraordinary people died too quickly or because of the influence of the plane rules, but there were only a dozen resentments attached to the executioner, and none of them had reached big red.

The only two traces of bloody will-level deep red resentment on the executioner did not come from Baishe Street.

The owners of the two grudges, one of whom was called the Multi-Handed Man, was killed by the Executioner when he was hunting extraordinary people.

The other person Wu Chang knew, he was the gun god who used the magic-breaking bullet to assassinate Nestor and Ma Jia's clone.

Because of him, Wu Chang brought people tonight to wipe out the top leaders of the Conservative Party, and turned them all into sunny dolls. When they looked for the Gun God but couldn't find him, they thought he had escaped. Unexpectedly, he had just finished playing the role of hunter and killed Nestor and Ma Jia's clone, and then he became the prey of the Executioner.

The bloody last words in the two people's grudges were very pure, and their demands were all [Get rid of the executioner and avenge me. ]

He likes pure players like this, those who just want revenge instead of fancy things.

The negative example is his cousin Schultz, who left a bloody will, and he has not yet figured out how to complete it.

Putting aside the two people's resentment for revenge, Wu Chang quickly read through their resentment and found their common points.

The abilities of both of them are compatible with the steam rules and are not affected by them, so they can exert their full strength.

This is their advantage, but it is also the reason why they are targeted by the executioners.

The Executioner was stitched together with the All-Rounder, transforming from a half-human, half-machine cyborg into a pure mechanical life.

It was sewn together with the Gun God's arm and inherited the Gun God's ability to materialize into a gun.

With the reminders from Leng Shan and Jian Xing behind him, he also saw the core of the magic-destroying steam press embedded in the executioner's face.

The combination of these three pieces, plus the steam rules, can be called a dematerializer for extraordinary people. No wonder it can open a one-click sweep on Baishe Street and easily kill hundreds of extraordinary people.

He rejected Leng Shan and Jian Xing's offer to help and strode towards the executioner.

The abilities of a jack of all trades and a master of guns are good, so he wants it.
