Want to know my combat power? You should have said so earlier.

Lin Chuan stood quietly to the side, watching Bulma at work.

He remained calm and composed, not daring to make a single sound.

He was terrified that he might disturb her and cause the modification to fail.

Although he was completely clueless about this field, he knew just how difficult such a task was.

One look at Bulma's series of operations was enough to tell; the process and techniques involved were incredibly precise, leaving no room for the slightest negligence.

He knew that if even a single error occurred, the Scouter would be rendered completely useless.

It had to be said that Bulma truly possessed both brains and the ability to act. Under her modifications, in just ten or twenty minutes, she had completed the final steps and rebooted the Scouter.

Seeing the triumphant smile on Bulma's face, Lin Chuan knew she hadn't just stopped at modifying the text.

"Hehe! Finally, it's a success!" Bulma shouted excitedly, and the next second, she placed the Scouter over her left eye.

As she restarted the Scouter, the alien characters displayed on the screen had been transformed into Earth's language.

"I didn't expect you to actually complete the modification so quickly. Although I had my suspicions, seeing it with my own eyes, you truly deserve the title of genius," Lin Chuan said, offering his praise.

He expressed his admiration directly, allowing Bulma to satisfy her vanity.

"Hmph, hmph! Now you know, my abilities aren't just limited to this," Bulma said triumphantly. A proud, playful smile then appeared on her face as she turned to Lin Chuan and added, "I didn't just modify the text information on this detector; I also strengthened its detection capabilities to a certain extent, allowing it to calculate combat power units up to a higher peak."

Hearing this, Lin Chuan became interested and asked, "Are you saying you increased the Scouter's upper limit? What is the highest index it can detect now?"

"Although it's a semi-finished product put together with spare parts, if the original detector could only barely detect a value of around 20,000, it should be able to reach about 40,000 to 50,000 now..."

"I added a chip I developed myself. While it can't compare to the Scouter's main chip, it can serve as an auxiliary calculation unit."

After thinking for a moment, Bulma replied.

It was evident that even if Earth's past smart chips couldn't compare to high-tech alien chips, they were developing at a rapid pace, and under Bulma's craftsmanship, they were already quite terrifying.

Come to think of it, the technology in certain fields on Earth had reached a level that even the technology of the Frieza Force couldn't match.

For example, Dr. Gero's android technology, as well as other top-tier biological technologies...

"40,000 to 50,000, huh? That's enough to catch up to the advanced Scouters newly developed by the Frieza Force," Lin Chuan muttered to himself.

The Scouters they possessed were all older models that had been in use for decades.

The guy Lin Chuan had looted was only a high-level scout, so his Scouter was also a standard model with a detection limit of only around 20,000.

According to Lin Chuan's knowledge and the information provided by the original story, at this stage, only high-ranking members of the Frieza Force were equipped with the new, advanced Scouters.

The detectable power level range can reach from 50,000 to over 100,000.

For instance, the Scouter equipped by Zarbon in the original story was a new model, and the Scouters used by the Ginyu Force that appeared later were also high-level versions.

Calculating the current timeline, high-level Scouters might still be in the research and development phase; even if they have been developed, they should only be in the trial stage.

Therefore, in the plot a year from now, the vast majority of warriors in the Frieza Force will still be equipped with Scouters that have an upper limit of no more than 20,000 to 30,000.

After listening to Lin Chuan, Bulma finally understood that these Scouters were also divided into high and low grades.

However, the moment she thought about how her casual modifications had reached a high-level standard, she couldn't help but feel incredibly proud.

Just then, a flash of inspiration crossed her mind.

Driven by curiosity, she pointed the Scouter at Lin Chuan and pressed the button.

"Beep, beep, beep, beep~~~~!!!"

As the Scouter emitted the detection sound, Lin Chuan was slightly taken aback, having been caught off guard.

Bulma, on the other hand, saw a figure that left her completely stunned.

Power Level: 100...

"That's not right. Did it fail? Your power level... is only 100??" Refusing to believe it, Bulma pressed the Scouter's button again, feeling completely bewildered.

In her dictionary, the concept of making a mistake simply shouldn't exist.

If it had failed, logically, it wouldn't even be able to start up.

Hearing this, Lin Chuan realized what was happening. Knowing that Bulma wanted to know his power level, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Her modification of the Scouter hadn't failed; it was he who had controlled his own power level to 100, so the Scouter could only detect 100.

He did this for two reasons: first, his cultivation of Ki had already reached a certain realm, allowing him to control it as he pleased.

Second, his power level was increasing every second. If he were to show his strongest self to others regardless of the consequences, wouldn't his aura be skyrocketing every single moment? Who could stand that??

"Your modification didn't fail. It's just that I suppressed my Ki, so the Scouter couldn't detect it."

"If you wanted to see my power level, you should have said so earlier. Since you want to see it, I'll let you take a look, and while I'm at it, I'll test what level your modified Scouter has reached."

With a faint smile, Lin Chuan gave his answer to Bulma, and in the next second, he directly mobilized the power within his body.

As he released his energy, his aura surged rapidly, and the Scouter Bulma was wearing began to scan and calculate at high speed...

"Power level 1,000... Power level 5,000... Power level 10,000... Power level 20,000... It's, it's still rising... So, so amazing..." Startled by the numbers on the lens, Bulma turned pale.

Through her research into the Scouter, she knew that the numbers set for power levels were not just random.

Each numerical level has a specific definition.

For instance, a Combat Power of 1,000 points can easily destroy a small satellite, such as the Moon.

Starting from a few thousand points and reaching around 10,000 points, one can roughly destroy a planet the size of Earth...

Once Combat Power exceeds 20,000 points, although it is still defined as Planet-Busting level, Bulma could no longer fathom it.

Lin Chuan's Combat Power was still rising.

However, the numbers Bulma saw were no longer skyrocketing as they had been before; instead, they were increasing steadily.
