The Gungeon is full of secrets. Unfortunately, Ser Manuel will not teach you how to find and access these secrets around the Gungeon.

Nevertheless, upon reaching the final floor in the Halls of Knowledge (by using the teleporter), you’ll find a library area with a cracked wall on the westernmost part of the map. A Bullet Kin and a Shotgun Kin will be on the premises, so you’ll have to defeat these enemies with your Pea Shooter. After defeating both enemies, a Blank will typically drop on the library floor.

If you take a closer look at the walls surrounding the southern part of the library room, you’ll find a peculiar crack on the wall. Use your Blank to open the crack and reveal a new path that leads to another room.

The newly opened entrance leads to a new room, where Ser Manuel’s corpse lies. Around his corpse, you can find his old armor – the Old Knight’s Shield and the Old Knight’s Helm. Pick up these items to unlock them in the Gungeon proper.
