Fawkes smirked upon hearing those words. "This Huck guy knows his limits, after all. Get back to him immediately. Tell him to kill Wilbur no matter what it takes and drive that stupid van back to me. Oh, Wilbur''s in Kosanto right now. Help me ask Huck if he can take care of it for me."


    "Yes, sir."


    Fawkes'' butler, Bart, walked to a corner and dialed a number. After a brief chat, he turned away from the phone''s receiver and said to Fawkes, "Huck said they''ll do it, Mister Fawkes. Huck has many eyes in Kosanto, and Wilbur Penn is now in Diseya. He seems to be doing an investigation of sorts on the history of Diseya."


    "History?"


    "What''s this idiot trying to do?"


    Fawkes snatched the phone out of Bart''s grasp. "Huck, I want you to kill Wilbur Penn in three days. If you manage to get that done and drive his van to my underground parking lot, I''ll add on a bonus of twenty million dors."


    Later in the evening, Arsi handed a bottle of water to Wilbur. "Are you thirsty, Mister Penn?"


    "No, I''m fine."


    Wilbur turned Arsi''s water down, continuing to walk around the formations as he observed them. Arsi walked over to him, saying, "But you''ve been doing this all day, sir. Have you really not found your answer yet?"


    "No, I haven''t."


    "So did youe here for an archaeology project, Mister Penn?"


    "Archaeology?"


    "Yeah. Why would you be looking around here all day otherwise?"


    Wilbur took the bottle of water from Arsi, taking a few big gulps. He stared at a bottle, suddenly struck with an idea as he turned to Arsi. "Thanks for the reminder, Arsi."


    Arsi blinked at him. "But I just gave you a bottle of water..."


    "No, that''s not what I''m talking about."


    Wilbur stared at the formations, continuing to walk around them as he said, "My master, Senior Orkot once told me that a leading force had to be channeled into every formation for it tost. Without that leading force, the formation would use up its own energy and eventually fade to nothing. No formation would be able tost a few hundred years without a leading force, and you just reminded me that these two formations are no different."


    Wilbur figured that this leading force probably came from the water underground. After all, water could flow through the area within the formation as a form of energy, just like a water wagon.


    However, only one of the two formations was used to raise the water level underground. That meant that the other formation that was hiding the Dragon Cauldron piece was not using the underground water as its driving force, but something else instead, as it had also been around for just as long.
