In the end, Yuri still accepted the invitation, since there is no harm in it.
Wally was happy about this, and told Yuri the exact time and then they parted ways.
Yuri impatiently left the hospital, in addition to the need to hurry to record the DNA of Captain Cold and other people into the omnitrix, there are more important things.
The battle with the Rogues had wreaked havoc on Midtown's downtown area, with fires spreading for two or three blocks, and even the Flash Museum had been burned to the ground.
Only the statue of the Flash in front of the museum was spared, as it was protected by Captain Cold's absolute-zero ice.
Fortunately, there were no casualties.
It was surprising since the fire was so large that even if all the fire trucks within the city had been driven here to extinguish the fire, it would have been difficult to put it out for a while.
The defeated criminals like Magenta had already been placed in advance by Wally and Yuri in places where the fire couldn't reach, and had long since been received by Chyre and Morillo to be held in the Iron Heights.
It's worth noting that McCulloch confessed about him framing the Pied Piper when he met Chyre and Morillo, and that he could prove the Pied Piper's innocence.
Although Warden Wolfe was very reluctant to let Pied Piper go, he no longer had any reason or rights to keep Pied Piper in custody and had to release him.
As for the twenty robot soldiers that were killed indiscriminately by Upgrade, they were left at the centre of the fire.
Unlike most heroes who preferred to collect villains' trophies, the Flash didn't have such a habit, and the villains' weapons and equipment and whatnot were usually either kept in the police station's evidence room or taken for research by Star Labs' Midtown branch.
After all, Barry Allen is a police officer himself, and also happens to be in charge of the evidence room, so he doesn't have to travel far and wide to get a trophy showroom of his own.
Wally, being Barry's nephew, also didn't have the habit of collecting trophies either.
But Yuri is. He wanted to have the blacksmith's twenty machine soldiers before the people from Star Labs arrive.
Don't underestimate those robots just because they died a slightly sloppy death, because in fact, their armour defence was so strong that even if the fire at the battle was three times bigger and stronger than that, it wouldn't still be able to burn it.
...
With the speed of XLR8 2.0, it only took a few seconds to move the remains of twenty robot soldiers.
As for where to place these wrecks, that was of course to put them into the mirror space.
Yuri placed a wardrobe equal his height in the rear compartment of his car and affixed a mirror in the wardrobe, then used the mirror gun to create a passage into the mirror space.
In this way, Yuri had a very secure and undisturbed laboratory.
The two days before the start of Wally's wedding were basically the time that belonged to Gray Matter.
Before starting to dismantle the robotic soldiers, Yuri first chose to record the DNA of Captain Cold, the Weather Wizard, the Golden Glider, and the Mirror Master.
It was a proven fact right now that the Rogues' abilities was now much stronger than those times when their powers were still just a temporary means for them.
Captain Cold's Absolute Zero was the apex of ice abilities within the laws of physics, and as for the idea of freezing time and space could only be achieved by reaching a level beyond the laws of physics.
So much so that the omnitrix didn't even start its optimization function, because it really had no room for optimisation, and it just needs to evolve if Yuri wanted to strengthen it.
The Weather Wizard's weather control, after proper optimisation, can control two different kinds of weather at the same time, even if the weather is repulsive, such as blizzard and heat ....
Golden Glider, her ability is to fly, and she can also become invisible, but her drawback is that she can be seen by any superhuman with strong senses, but after optimization, the ability can only be seen by those with similar abilities.
As for the Mirror Master; the ability can do everything a mirror gun can do, but its used-to-be biggest flaw is that Sam can't get out of the mirrors he's trapped in, and the channels he creates can only let others in and out, which has been also fixed after optimization.
For each sample, Yuri tested its ability in the mirror space.
No matter how much damage was done in the mirror space, it would automatically recover, as long as the mirror was not broken.
After the DNA problem was solved, it was time to start with the scientific research.
Gray Matter completely disassembled the twenty robotic soldiers, and instead of using the parts to build weapons and equipment or something like that, Yuri used their parts to create a variety of basic equipments.
The basic equipment created in this way was definitely extremely poor in terms of precision, but it was an essential part.
Researching science and technology was not something that could be accomplished by intellect and knowledge alone; raw materials alone were of little use, the most crucial thing was the equipment.
Just look at what Iron Man did. They gave him a bunch of rough tools, and then give him Jericho missiles randomly dismantled, so that the material will not be bad.
But still what happened? After all, the Mark I is just a heavy armour with improvised weapons, the power system is extremely rough, and the technical content is not even exoskeleton armour.
The only thing was the Ark Reactor which was an advanced technology that didn't follow the rules, hell knows how he built it.
All in all, out of the twenty robots, the parts of eighteen were used to create basic equipment to make his lab really look like a lab.
For the remaining two, Yuri planned to use one to upgrade his car and the other to is build a set of protective gear for him.
The basic equipment was difficult and time consuming to manufacture, so Yuri was not in a hurry, and after building the most important lab bench, he quickly started to build the gears.
When he said protective gear, it was actually clothes.
Yuri first used the equipment that can change the structure of the material to convert the hard alloy armour a little bit into a state similar to fibre, more comfortable to wear but the defensive power did not drop much.
It was completely fireproof and bulletproof and also reduces impact.
This allows Yuri to have a certain self-protection ability even without transforming, for example, in a street fight that that is so bad that the protection function is not switched on in time because the omnitrix determines that the threat of the punk is extremely low ...
...
Next is his old car's reinforcement plan, first of all, the robots' propulsion is added to the rear of the old car, so that the old car's ultimate speed can reach eight hundred kilometres per hour.
The front and both sides of the car were all fitted with laser cannons, and the radar system, heat sensing system, and intelligent system were all applied to the console ...
Just like that, two days passed.
At three thirty in the afternoon, at the Midtown Cathedral, there was still half an hour before the wedding officially started.
The place where the wedding was held was located in the garden in the backyard of the church, and Yuri, who was holding the invitation, was unhindered.
After arriving at the site, Yuri found that there were not many invited guests.
There was probably less than ten people there.
