In this line, the '-x f95-cpp-input' is telling the compiler to expect source 
files.  It is being given two object files (.o).  Change the third line to:

   gfortran -g -pedantic-errors Hello.o Test.o -o Test

And all will be fine.  This third command is not doing any compiling, it is just 
linking the two object files into an executable.
