Meanwhile, Apocalypse...
After the battle at the base, they rested for a day and set out the next morning.
Black Widow, Captain America, Wanda, and a bound Pierce went with him.
Pierce had prepared to die rather than yield, but Apocalypse never interrogated him. Instead, he simply sealed his mouth.

They traveled in a straight line, crossing mountains when there was no road and flying low over the ground. Their route was more accurate than Amap.
Pierce stared in shock. How did they know Quicksilver was in that direction?
