Geocache Description:

In "Assassin's Creed" games you explore a fictional world where two secret organizations, the Templars and the Assassins, are at war for the control of special items called "Pieces of Eden", which can enslave or free humanity, depending on the use given to them.

This mystery cache has been inspired by the game "Assassin's Creed" and, especially,
"Assassin's Creed 2". We hope you enjoy solving the mystery! ^^





Nothing is true.

A piece of Eden

..I woke up 2 days ago in a bed in a strange room.. It was empty...Only had one big mirror wall and a door that I couldn't open. I had excruciating headache and when I touched the back of the head I noticed a bump. I think I was hit from behind...though I don’t remember. Anything. After getting up and going around the room trying to figure out how to get out and why am I here, I heard a voice coming from the mirror-wall.

“Good day, subject 18. You are here because you have to complete a task for us. We need you to find something. We will provide you with all information you need. Don’t try to run away. We successfully captured you once; there’s no guarantee that the second time will be as pleasant. Have a nice day!”

At that moment I heard a “click” and the door opened. I went out and saw stairs going up. There was a piece of paper laying on the first step:

 

Objective: The Apple of Eden    

Location: unknown

Description: The Apple is the first piece of Eden that appears in the records of history. It seems the Apple gave its owner power over people in the form of ilusions. The apple also gave access to forbidden information, big technological advances, dangerous in it's nature. It has been transferred along history, changing the shape of the world, allowing people to gain power beyond their imagination. The first organization that tried to keep control over it were the templars. With their influence, they chased down any manuscript, painting or record mentioning the Apple. Several works of art had clues about its hiding place. However, they were modified to hide the location from the eyes of the public. We have a list of those works of art but only three of them are useful: they contain the representation of the Apple and their ID numbers are listed as I.P.:

The originals are kept safe and protected. The entrance to the vault requires a password (hint: the password is on this page). The last known location of the Apple is Germany, during the second World War. In 1939 the Apple was secretly transported to Venice where a “u-boot” was waiting for it. It sent a single transmition:

ILGQ XISB YTBB UHZD
TWPV WWFY AALV KTNC
IJAQ YVGN GYVQ NXCG
EYK

The values of R1, R2 and R3 of the transmitter were 1,2 and 3. The three values of the Initial Position used by the transmitter are not known.. Nobody knows what happened after that..

Deadline: a week starting from now on.

 

Now I have only 5 days left. And I still cannot access the vault...

Everything's permitted.

Please bring your own pen.
