Ark ceremony Nazi (4)

A Nazi soldier was present at the opening of the Ark of the Covenant at Geheimhaven, Aegean Sea in 1936 as part of the German forces commanded by Colonel Herman Dietrich French archaeologist René Emile Belloq and Major Arnold Ernst Toht. He was very unfortunate during the ceremony at which the Ark was opened: first one of the ghosts that came out of the mystical object travelled fully inside his body, then, after the ghosts became aggressive, blasts of lightning were sent flying into the man's eyes, mouth, hands and stomach, completely incinerating him.

Geheimhaven
In 1936, the German soldier was among those present at Geheimhaven, Aegean Sea following the Nazis' discovery of the Ark of the Covenant in Tanis, Egypt, under the command of Colonel Herman Dietrich French archaeologist René Emile Belloq and Major Arnold Ernst Toht. After capturing American archaeologist Indiana Jones, the Nazis prepared to open the Ark with a Jewish ritual performed by Belloq. After being surprised discovering only sand inside the Ark, the soldiers were utterly shocked with the sight of several ghosts emerging from the ancient relic. One of the ghosts even went entirely inside the soldier's body, possessing him and causing him to crouch down and conceal himself in fear as his comrades stepped away from him in fear. However, these ghosts weren't the last surprise. Soon, the ghosts started screaming wildly at the Nazis, and giant bolts of electricity came flying suddenly from the Ark, impaling and killing soldiers left and right. This soldier and his fellow Nazis were all killed by the Ark, this one suffering an especially painful death: blasts of lightning went straight into his eyes, his hands and his stomach, totally incinerating and killing him before his body was consumed by the Ark.
