How to complete "Breaking The Code" quest in Disney Dreamlight Valley

To start deciphering the Mysterious Book, you'll need something to help, and thankfully, Belle has just the thing you'll need—her father's Translation Machine. You'll first need to gather her father's plans, which happen to be scattered around Beast's Castle in the Beauty and The Beast realm.

Where to find Maurice's Design Pages in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Tracking down these pages may seem a little confusing since there are a lot of pages spread around the Castle already, but most of them are a side story someone seemed to be writing. The biggest way to tell the two types of pages apart is to approach them and see what option pulls up: Read will be story pages, and Pick Up will be the design plans.

Here are all the locations you can find the pages you need, according to where I found them myself. Use the pictures above to help follow along:

  • Beast's Room - in front of the Enchanted Canvas on the wall
  • The Library - in the left corner
  • The Garden - to the left of the rose bushes

After you bring Belle the plans, you'll need to start collecting the items you need to craft the Machine. You'll need quite a few items, so be sure to check your storage or head out and get as many things as you can to continue this quest.

Here's what you'll need to make the Translation Machine for Belle:

  • Softwood x30 (Harvested in The Plaza)
  • Tinkering Parts x4 (Made from Iron Ingots, which you can make from Iron Ore harvested from Deposits)
  • Glass x20 (Made from sand and coal, which you can purchase from Kristoff's Stall or find on Dazzle Beach by digging or breaking Sandstones)
  • Motherboard x1 (From WALL-E)

The last step to complete these quests is to help Belle answer the Translation Machine questions in return for a translation of the first line of the Mysterious Book. These questions will be based on Beauty and The Beast trivia, so hopefully, you know your stuff.

Don't worry if you get any questions wrong the first time; you'll have as many chances as you need to pick the correct ones if you happen to make a mistake. To make it easier, we have all three questions and answers listed below:

  • Who is the bravest horse of them all? - Philippe
  • When is the perfect time to learn about someone's real identity in a story? - During chapter 3
  • Which object would a majordomo be turned into if under an Enchantress's spell? - A clock

After answering these questions correctly, you'll be able to translate the first line of the Mysterious Book. Belle will need more time to work through the translations and discover more about the secrets within the book. Keep working on building her Friendship to continue the story!
