This function has a singularity (e.g. V[\[Beta],0,0] is Indeterminate) so 
Mathematica is removing it from the range of values that are plotted.

You can manually override this behaviour in various ways, such as

ContourPlot[V[0.9,x,z],{x,-L,L},{z,-L,L},Contours->cntrs,FrameLabel->{"x","z"},PlotRange->All]

which fills in some more contours for you, but of course still can't do the 
singularity itself.
