It still doesn't work even at a level of 1.

^ looks like compression is already applied at the server level & compressing again is resulting in gibberish display.

Had this myself. As .m. Stated it's what happens when compression is done twice: at server level and at the ACP. Please remove it from your ACP settings and heck in Gzip is enabled using a tool of your choice.

Sorry, but I don't understand what I am suppose to do. Do I need to desactivate the plugin causing this issue?

If you are using a plugin in addition to ACP settings, then remove the plugin. If you still have a problem after that, then turn gzip compression off in ACP.

But, I've got tons of plugins :

In my opinion, the only plugins that could cause this problem would be Preparser Cache or MinifyHTML but I deactivated both of them and it still couldn't work.
