The Da Vinci Webquest is an online puzzle.
I just completed it and will explain to you how to solve this
You can access the website through this link
Lets start
You now have earned the right to your next clue:
The Mona Lisa's dwelling once housed kings.
A lavish Paris palace with three wings.
One wing is Sully... one is Richelieu.
Please name the third (I've mentioned only two).
Using google search, you will find the answer to the third gate to be DENON.
Next gate appears .Click on the hint and you will find how to decipher the sentence below -
WTRGOWTRDTWOLOCDBANOOENDM
This whole sentence consists of 25 letters.The metod of encoding used is the caeser's square.(Which you will understand if you read 'Digital Fortress')Here since 5 x 5 = 25 (or square root of 25 is 5)
simply make groups of five letters and put them one below the other.

Thank you for writing. I apologize for this automated
response, but I am currently in Florence attempting
to locate the key to "The Prophecy" - an encoded
parchment that may have been written by Leonardo Da
Vinci. I will respond to your message upon my return.
Sincerely,
Robert Langdon
Jonas,
If this is you, DON'T erase this email - I can only
send it once. Something terrible has happened. I was
attacked outside my hotel, and the parchment was
stolen! I think the thieves intend to auction it on-
line. I don't have reliable web access here, and I
need your help. You must find this auction
immediately and track down the parchment. Here are
the two best art-related auction sites:
http://www.auctionport.com
www.relic-bay.com
When you search, you should definitely include the
initials "LSPDV" because they are so rare. Please do
everything in your power to locate the parchment
soon - I must get it back. I'm getting very close to
uncovering the key to the code.
- Robert
Go to the second link.
When you enter the site you will be asked to type keywords related to the relics you are seeking.
Type 'LSPDV'
Click on 'Click to view item'
The buyer has written that she has put the parchment in to safekeeping to a bank advertised on this very site.Tis gives us a clue that we should click on the advertisement of the 'Depository Bank Of Zurich'.
Type the name Marie Denarnaud to login.
When asked for the account number click on the hint that Marie left for herself.
It states -
Marie, your father (knowing how much you love books about Da Vinci) gave you that new American novel The Da Vinci Code. For your account number, look at the middle of Chapter 44.
The account number is actually the Fibonacci series.
The pattern of the series is
1
1
1 + 1 = 2
1 + 2 = 3
2 + 3 = 5
3 + 5 = 8
5 + 8 = 13
8 + 13 = 21
and so on...
Each number is the sum of the previous two numbers.
The bank account number is 1123581321.
Instead of the parchment you will find a message from the police that says
