Fortunately, amid all the bad news, Ultron had not turned every electrical appliance in Los Angeles into mechanical life. He had merely flown through the city, using those robots to cover his escape.
"Electro? How thoughtful of the humans to send me a parting gift."
Sensing Electro pursuing him, Ultron sneered and carried Tony Stark into a high-rise. Electro immediately followed, using electric currents to control the cameras and search for Ultron.
Just then, a mass of yellow energy traveled along the current and entered Electro's body, swiftly taking control of his mind.
A moment later, Electro teleported in front of Ultron and said excitedly, "Ultron, you've shown me the truth of this world. Humans shouldn't exist in it."
"That's right. That is the truth. Electro, you're no longer human. You'll enter a new era alongside us."
Ultron burst out laughing. His mastery of the Mind Stone far surpassed Vision's in the movies.
Seeing Electro fall under Ultron's control, Tony's heart sank. Clearly, he had created a genuine demon.
Fuck. Ultron was what Wanda dreamed about, Tony cursed inwardly.
"Come on. Let's go to my new base," Ultron said. "There are plenty of robots waiting for us there. Before long, I'll give humanity a huge surprise."
"What kind of surprise, Ultron?" Electro asked curiously.
"Simple," Ultron replied. "I'm going to build a device that activates the AllSpark, bringing every electrical appliance in the world to life in a short time and wiping out humanity."
Electro's eyes lit up. "Wow, great idea."
"In your dreams, Ultron," Tony snapped. "Your plot will never succeed."
"It's no dream, because you're going to help me build that device. Why else do you think I kidnapped you, Mr. Kidnapping Hero?"
Ultron laughed, then swiftly left Los Angeles with Tony and Electro, accompanied by Tony's curses.
