In biref, this is how it happens.
If a proxy receives INVITE message and there is a route header after
it has removed its own, then the proxy will use this route header to
forward the request.

If a proxy receives INVITE message with no route header and the
request-uri's domain it is responsible, then it will replace
request-uri with remote target (B's registered address) and shall send
the INVITE to B.

If a proxy receives INVITE message with no route header and the
request-uri's domain it is not responsible for, it shall forward the
INVITE using DNS lookup on the domain part of the request-uri (The way
our mails are routed from one SMTP server to another using DNS lookup.

You need to read RFC-3261 to get into more details.
