Although Heimdall had said they still had six hours to prevent Hela from finding them,
no one could say for sure whether Hela might discover their hidden base ahead of time.
The more time they spent in Nidavellir, the greater the danger Asgard faced.
"About how long will it take?" Thor turned to Eitri and asked.
To forge a divine weapon capable of dealing with Hela, he had decided to go all in and use his own body to forcibly restart the furnace!
Eitri was startled by Thor's bold decision.
One had to know that Nidavellir's furnace used a star as its energy source!
Even with the body of a god, Thor would find it difficult to withstand that energy.
In the worst-case scenario, the Uru metal might not even melt
before Thor could no longer endure it!
"This is completely insane!"
Eitri roared at Thor, hoping to make him abandon the idea.
On the other hand, Eitri had to admit that Thor's need for a weapon was far more important than his own life and death.
Otherwise, Hela would likely slaughter every person in Asgard who opposed her.
That was simply how cruel she was by nature!
"How long will it take!"
Thor disregarded his own life and growled at Eitri again.
"Fine."
Feeling Thor's resolve, Eitri had no choice but to agree to his madness.
After learning exactly how long he needed to hold on, Thor wasted no words and activated Nidavellir's furnace once more.
He used his own body as the most crucial connection.
Loki was badly frightened by Thor's actions, but he also knew in his heart
that someone had to do this!
At that moment, Loki seemed to understand the gap between himself and Thor.
Why Odin believed Thor was better suited to become King
