Mission Objectives

 is the 4th and final chapter of the 18th volume and the 74th chapter overall of the Attack on Titan manga, written and illustrated by Hajime Isayama.

Overview
Eren succeeds in sealing the hole in Wall Maria with his Titan powers, but it seems everything was too easy. Levi reminds him that their enemies can breach the Wall again at any time, so until they find and kill them, the mission is not over. Armin finds traces of three people drinking tea nearby not long ago, and Erwin leaves him in charge of the Survey Corps to direct their search mission. Under Armin's orders, the Survey Corps search all over the district until Armin eventually leads them to searach inside the Walls, thinking that it may be their most plausible hideout. Armin's hunch is correct and they find Reiner, who quictly kills the soldier wholocated the hollow spot within the wall where he hid. Levi attacks and cuts Reiner's nape and chest, but fails to kill him and the latter transforms into the Armored Titan, but lay lifeless on the ground. The Beast Titan then appears leading an army of Titans, and launches a rock at the inner gate of Shiganshina, blocking their only entrance and trapping the Survey Corps inside the district without their horses. The corps prepares for an all out battle against their enemies as the armored Titan rises. Planning to kil or be killed, Erwin and the corps ready themselves for a fight to the death.
