Agents, our worker Jason is hidden with secret projects about new type of fuel, which performance is 10x better than usual fuels at petrol stations. He sent us this document : Spoiler: Document http://pastebin.com/AU2vpeWg with annotation
Well, my first ARG made here, i hope you will like it. When answer will be given, i will write little ending
I send some hints about cipher: Spoiler: Hint 1 Half of name is already written Spoiler: Hint 2 It's on Pastebin Spoiler: Solution Aes 128 bit
Just as encouragement - I am horribly short on time these days, haven't even started mission 20 yet and don't know when I'll be able to, but if I could I'd love to take a stab at this. Hopefully in the near future.
Thanks @Karades for the hint, without it I'd be looking for variants of Base64 till the end of days u_u Spoiler: First Layer Using this site http://aesencryption.net/ with the ciphertext located in pastebin (4mEnV3PGIB8gNZuoKQCZOjZzxe/swTo/+Kr7/GY+aamU/8kyNJHsCifAwB3n77Sro8MmBWiZiR50ehhBS/6FYHKcvRzCsESdHn/S9ezsOdY=) and the password Death the following link is revealed: http://screenshu.com/static/uploads/temporary/mv/4o/1v/mwfjbw.jpg Spoiler: Second Layer Googling a bit I've found that the image depicts the "Danse Macabre" or The Dance of the Death associated with the Black Plague: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Death#mediaviewer/File:Danse_macabre_by_Michael_Wolgemut.png Michael Wolgemut is the painter, and that illustration is form The Nuremberg Chronicle. Taking all of this into account, I'd say that Jason is in Nuremberg, Germany. Spoiler: Conclusion? Jason said: "I'm in very important place for this country, that gives joy for eyes , soul and mind, secured and with friends" So I'm think we can find him in the Germanisches Nationalmuseum in Nuremberg (http://www.gnm.de/en/). Spoiler: Misc
Spoiler: Ending You're watching some stuff in museum. A guardian is coming to you. You turn back and then he said " I found You".
