Quest text from Mechanic

Just when I finally sorted out the stable Internet connection and power supply for it, the Government stepped up the game and started blocking half the IP addresses that handled most of the data flow in Tarkov. All that because TerraGroup allegedly uses "Ebambium" ISP to further destabilize the situation in the city and wreak havoc. Sounds like some gibberish about the Ragnarok coming, don't you think? By the way about gibberish and weapons — some weirdo with a lightning symbol tattooed on his face asked for a Remington 870 shotgun. Equipped with a tactical device, Magpul MOE handguard, and a tactical foregrip. Ergonomics above 60 and recoil sum less than 500.
