Well. The first chapter is 38645 cause B is greater than E (2nd digit > then 5th digit).
Thanks for the hints. I'm blocked at the chapter 14. How can I solve the sudoku? I can't write any number on it

Use google glasses and take a picture of the sudoku and solve it

match the tiles at the bottom of the website to match the quadrant at the top right of the solved sudoku

22 is Faced or Macau or Adage depending on what flags you got.

Then it gives a link to https://twitter.com/#!/dropquestalpha
and if you search dropquest, it turns out there's one for every letter of the greek alphabet: https://twitter.com/#!/search/users/Dropquest
And they all seem to have coordinates as their description
